A newish vanguard of more reasonable (or realistic) Republican donors is trying to catch up with history by funding lobbying efforts to get GOP lawmakers to support same-sex marriage. That's right, American voters — some Republicans are actually self-aware enough to realize that their party is straddling a chasm of…
Lena Dunham's pro-doin' it with Obama (voting that is!) ad has made me fall a little bit in love with her and conservatives shoot a little bit of irate steam out of their ears. But no GOP'er freaked out more hilariously than Minnesota Republican party deputy chair Kelly Fenton, who reminded us today that Dunham's ad…
Michele Bachmann has been one of the loudest, shoutiest shouters in favor of an amendment to the Minnesota state constitution that would define marriage as a legal union between one man and one woman. Unsurprisingly, Bachmann's gay stepsister Helen LaFave is displeased with the Congresswoman's foaming homophobic…
After unseating herself from the cool Republicans' table earlier this month with accusations that Huma Abedin knew someone who knew someone who was friends with a guy who once heard that someone he sat next to at an Applebee's was involved with the Muslim Brotherhood, Michele Bachmann might very well lose her…
Taking a pregnancy test can be a nerve-wracking, stomach-churning, mindfucking experience.

Oh, tanning bed. Oh, tanning bed. No, that is not the start to some dumb Jersey Shore Christmas song parody; it's a lament about the reason all the young people are getting cancer. A new study from the Mayo Clinic has found there's been a scary increase in the prevalence of skin cancer in young adults, ages 18 to 39.…
Last night, a bomb exploded outside of a Wisconsin Planned Parenthood, injuring no one and doing a small amount of property damage. The 90's are back, you guys!
A group of Minnesota women have banished their bridge leagues and weekly mahjong get-togethers to form a slightly more active social group: a basketball league for older women only. And while there's no running or jumping allowed in Granny , it's hard not to watch them play without feeling your heart grow so rapidly…
An 18-year-old Minnesota high school senior spent the last several weeks on a quest worthy of its own teen sex comedy: he sent Tweets to hundreds of female porn stars in the hope that one of them would go to prom with him. After two of them said yes, it seemed that his dream of wining and dining two women he'd watched…
Longtime activist and Occupy Wall Street participant Anne Nolan is the sort of woman that gives Michele Bachmann hives. Pro-Wall Street Reform, pro-universal health care, pro-mandatory 3 weeks' vacation for all American workers, and, most Bachmann dystopian of all— she didn't take her husband's name when they married.…
A Minnesota investigation has found that police in the Land of 10,000 lakes are using the state's DMV database like non-cop internet perverts use Facebook — as their own stalking wonderland, a veritable cornucopia of pictures of unsuspecting hotties ripe for the gawking. One woman was horrified to discover that…
This morning, a special court in Minnesota ruled that Michele Bachmann's home district is to be folded into another district to reflect population shifts from the last 10 years.
