• Liz Cheney, no stranger to irony (though she can't recognize it), says that others have "made a cottage industry of fantasies" about her dad Dick. Aren't Elektra complexes fun? [Politico]

Take a deep breath: This picture of Blagojevich and Obama being sworn in to testify at a Congressional hearing was taken in 2005. But despite the fact that Blagojevich hates "that motherfucker" more than even Tracy Morgan does, he still might turn into even more of a nightmare for Barack Obama. What it means for the Huffington Post's Jason Linkins and me, however, is that there's plenty to talk about, including Blagojevich's stupidity, nipple clamps, other corrupt assholes, and Rahm Emanuel's potentially snitchy ways (and why we love them).

The end of the week is a time to sit and digest the insanity that the week has spawned. More news on Sarah Palin's style? Check. Canadian Parliamentary crisis? Check. A Supreme Court case on Barack Obama's birth certificate? Yup, got that, too. Between all of that, plus calls for Robert Mugabe to resign, Tim Geithner to pull his head out of his (possibly sexist) ass, and Andrew Cuomo not caring about black people, it's damn lucky that I have Racialicious' Latoya Peterson along on this ride to Crazytown (not nearly as awesome as Funkytown, by the way).

WHAM BAM. See that? It's today's New York Post. Are we there yet? Are you still reading? Hellooo, SinisterRouge? I bet you'd like to know what story led the paper, since Obama's HUUUUUGE WIN in yesterday's Beltway Belt primary was positioned bottom-right. So I'll tell you: it was a story called "Truth hurts: My secret S&M life." It's the story — I'm sorry, redundant, how bout TWISTED TALE — of a "kinky college professor" and the dominatrix (ooooh, good samaritrix!) with a heart of gold who saved him after a "colleague" nearly strangled him to death in the Nutcracker Suite of a Midtown Hotel. But it's really about one man's mortal struggle to overcome an addiction to a destructive habit. "It's like when you crave a turkey. You eat it and you eat it and you eat it, but you still want it." (See? It's about all of us.) "But now I've had enough. I don't want turkey anymore. I'm full." Do you see how this could sort of apply to you, me, Megan and this whole election horserace thing? We're full. But after the jump we'll be back to our gluttonous gorging over such irresistible topics as the Fair Tax, McCain's running mate and who the fuck are those 700 DC residents who voted for Mike Huckabee. Oh yeah, and skateboarders and puppies! More »
