For more-entertaining, less-politically-damaging puppets, tune into the new Comedy Central series The Jeff Dunham Show premiering this Thursday, October 22 at 9pm / 8c.

Ordinarily, I just skip right over posts like this in my Google Reader, but this one was so thick with liberal partisan self-satisfaction that I practically got splattered with patchouli-smelling schadenfreude as I scrolled past it…

I was just reading the rightist blogs on the President's triumph at Notre Dame. These are really the worst of time for the bad guys. And it is critically important that we enjoy their misery because it may not last forever. (On the other hand, it might)…

These guys are in agony. They are living their worst nightmare. Not only is a liberal Democrat in the White House, but he's the reincarnation of FDR. He's politically deft. He's popular. He has a beautiful family. He has the supreme confidence of a JFK and the political skills of Clinton but without the character flaws. And, like FDR, and LBJ, he intends to transform America.

Muahahahahahahahaha! Nothing can possibly go wrong! Why, we haven't seen one political party so completely dominate the other since… since… four years ago when the Republicans plowed over the Democrats so badly that many thought liberalism was completely dead! And that victory lasted forever!

It's pure Democratic gold, I tells ya!  Pure Democratic gold!

Tune in tomorrow when we discover that President Obama has been conducting a long-term sexual relationship with an underage, male, Swine Flu-infected Chupacabra.

After the jump, Stephen continues his analysis with Jonathan Alter.

The Colbert Report airs Monday through Thursday at 11:30pm / 10:30c.

And when the information went inside her brain, it got lost, part of it was eaten by a bear, and what finally managed to stumble out of her mouth on the floor of Congress sounded like… well, like regular Michele Bachmann talk…

On Monday night, our friends at Dump Bachmann reported, Bachmann took to the House floor and paid tribute to the economic policies of Calvin Coolidge and the "Roaring 20s" (the era that ended with a massive monetary contraction and the Great Depression).

One particular line really does stand out, though — saying Franklin Roosevelt turned a recession into a depression through the "Hoot-Smalley" tariffs…

Yeah, those Hoot Smalley tariffs sure were a problem. I wonder how many people were forced into the lead brines because of them.

Matt Yglesias has more on Bachmann's remarkable intelligence.

Sure, President Obama has downplayed the importance of the event. Senior Advisor David Axelrod even called it a "Hallmark holiday," thereby belittling other Hallmark holidays like Grandparents Day and Administrative Professionals Day.

But ever since gaining those dead pirate points, Obama can only win support from the media coverage, and so Obama will "pay homage to his 100 days with a Wednesday trip to… Missouri," the state where every exciting thing ever happens.

In honor of the landmark, we decided to celebrate Obama's milestone by over-oversimplifying it further and boiling it down to a nice simple chart comparing President Obama's first 100 days to the accomplishments of history's most famous presidents in such a way that even an idiot could understand…

Latinos In A Lose-Lose Situation: The economic reality of Mexico is hardly hopeful, which is why immigrants risk life and limb to scurry over the border to America, just so they can face gringo hostility. Daphne Eviatar highlights a report about immigrant discrimination. [washingtonindependent.com]

Racist Rally About Racism: Why is that, in the manicured world of international diplomacy, walking out of a meeting in a huff is a masterly insult? Anthony Lerman wants the West to debate racist loonies who rant at anti-racist conferences about other races. [guardian.co.uk]

Chrysler to Big Government: Nuts To You: Blogger Rob is a true Darwinian capitalist: if you're company sucks, it should go down. And that means, if you're a struggling car company, you shouldn't accept government handouts. Build a better car, or hit the bricks. [sayanythingblog.com]

Also: President Obama A Hand-wringing, Manipulative Power Monger  When Lloyd Brown refers to President Obama as a "Prince," he doesn't mean the hard-rocking, purple leprechaun nor a noble person. He's referring to "The Prince," the go-to tome for back-stabbing snakes-in-the-grass. [americanthinker.com]

There's Nothing Wrong With Rush That A Slide Whistle Wouldn't Fix Rush Limbaugh isn't so bad, says Andrew Klavan. He suggests pinko liberals who hemorrhage at the very mention of talk radio's avenging Humpty-Dumpty take a moment to listen to Rush's show, so they know what they're talking about. [latimes.com]

President Hillary Clinton Will Be President, Just You Watch  The creators of this website get a blue ribbon for commitment to their cause, who lost her bid for President. Their love of Hillary Clinton and disregard for reality is strangely admirable, and utterly terrifying. Check it out: Obama is a crimelord. [hillaryis44.org]

In a 20-minute speech in the lobby of the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Biden said President Obama "has inherited the most difficult first 100 days of any president, I would argue, including Franklin Roosevelt."

Honk. Quack. Aooooga.

See? It's all better. Granted, he was defending his boss, a man he makes grimace more than a country club full of AIG robber barons. But it’s a lame defense.

Seriously, Joe, sometimes you remind me of a cross between the oracle in 300 and the father of a girl I was dating in high school, who met me in his underwear and asked if I was "packing" condoms. ,

The problem with claiming our current Hobopocalypse is somehow worse than the existential economic flattening that happened in the 1930’s is that it’s a patently dishonest rhetorical tool. It’s really no different than the Bush Administration telling Americans that the War on Terror was somehow equitable to World War II. Apples and oranges, industrialized, fully militarized Nazi Germany and Middle Eastern rednecks with attack camels.

It's revisionist, drama-queen hyperbole. There are huge differences between the Great Depression and our current crisis. For instance, bank deposits weren’t insured, 25% of Americans were unemployed, and "dollar menus" were called "soup kitchens" where scalding hot boot leather bisque was ladled directly into your mouth. Plus, cannibal newsies pitchfork fought in the streets.

Economic meltdowns aren't competitions. We aren't reliving The Great Depression, or The Greatest Depression. This is our own, unique, special mess. Most likely, it's just The I Will Rent Forever, Never Pay Off Student Loans, And Eat Nothing But Easy Mac, God This Sucks Balls Recession. And that is good enough for me.

[A]t the time of our country's founding, back in 1776, years were much shorter — twenty-five days to be exact — so an entire four-year presidential term lasted 100 days. It's also important because President Franklin D. Roosevelt set the gold standard for action within the first 100 days of office.

Within three months of being swarn in, FDR pulled America out of the Great Depression, prevented Hitler from invading Poland, personally coached Jessie Owens to win the Olympic gold and tilted over the Great Lakes to irrigate the Dust Bowl that was causing such food shortages across America.

But all of these feats are nothing compared to his battle with King Kong.

If that's true, then I guess what Obama would have to do to measure up is have some kind of heroic battle against a gigantic animal beast.

But hasn't he already done that?
