WASHINGTON -- "We're back, baby!"

Such were the words of Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele after being informed that the Republican Party had finished an entire 24-hour cycle without any of its members being caught in an act of adultery, quitting, or being convicted of any type of crime.

"This is something we are going to build on," said Steele. "I think the American people can now see we are able to go one full day without anything disastrous happening."

Following a train wreck of a month that saw Sen. John Ensign admit to adultery, S.C. Governor Mark Stanford go AWOL from his job before admitting he also was an adulterer, and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin give her three-week notice, the news that no huge scandal had broken in a 24-hour period had the Republican base feeling optimistic about its future.

"If we can go 24 hours, who's to say we can't go 48?" said Republican leader Newt Gingrich. "I'd hesitate to say we could go a week, but we're making progress."

3. In a few short hours,
Another KKKonservanazi hypocrite will either open his/her mouth and stick both feet in or one will get caught in another sex scandal. Michael Steele is a dildo.

One thing though, as long as Palin, Sandford and Newtie Getrich keep pleasing the KKKonservanazi true believers, they will be at the head of the list for a run on the presidency. They are perfectr examples of the failures of the KKKonservanazi republiKKKan party. :toast:

4. It's like an Onion headline... but it's real.
If it wasn't so damn funny, it would be sad.
