National Republicans turned the tables on their political counterparts Wednesday by redirecting angry telephone calls coming into their switchboard to the Democratic National Committee.
The DNC released a Web video early in the morning accusing the GOP of inciting mob activity at town hall meetings.
At the end of the video, the DNC instructs people to call the Republican National Committee to express outrage. Callers who dial the RNC’s main number to voice their concern about the DNC’s charges are told to press 1, which sends them to the DNC’s main switchboard.

Tom notes below, the beer summit was a touch staged. Hops we can believe in, perhaps. I think if XKCD today had happened, the nation would be better off.

Michael Arth is a long shot gubernatorial candidate for Florida, but at least he has a sense of humor in his campaign biography, which opens thus:
Michael Edward Arth was born near Liverpool, England at a U.S. Air Force Base on April 27, 1953. In 1955 his parents moved to New Mexico. This was followed by a move to Midland, Texas where he was taught at a parochial school by the Sisters of the Immaculate Conception, all of whom were named Mary, but none of whom were immaculately conceived. His own mother however was born on the feast of the Immaculate Conception, but named Evelyn Yvonne instead of Mary.
The family genealogy is known quite well in the far distant past and the recent past, but it is the chain of ancestors in the middle that is less certain. More than 3.8 billion years ago his ancestors were rather rudimentary life forms that either immigrated to Earth on an asteroid or were cooked up in the primordial soup. Leaping forward to modern times, it appears that his mother is a mixture of black Irish and American melting pot, including perhaps some Native American. A family genealogy traces her side of the family back to some Irish kings, including “Art Boy Cavanaugh” and Dermot MacMurrough Kavanaugh, who was the 12th century scoundrel from Leinster who sold out the country to Henry II of England in order to save his tee-na-na from a neighboring tribal chieftan who wanted revenge for kidnapping his wife. The same genealogy also claims that the family’s ancestors came to Ireland from Greece in the 2nd century.

The British Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, has been caught in a rather embarrassing and silly scandal:
LONDON — Britain’s Home Secretary apologized Sunday for putting five pay-per-view movies on her parliamentary expense account _ including two X-rated ones screened by her husband.
Jacqui Smith admitted she should not have claimed any of the movies and said all the money would be paid back. She attributed the mistake to not being careful enough with a service package that included both Internet and TV….
“X-rated is not the same as porn,” the spokewoman said, refusing to elaborate. She spoke anonymously in line with government policy and would not release the names of the X-rated movies.
That last line deserves greater *ahem* fleshing-out. Fortunately, the BBC sitcom Coupling, had a lengthy and *cough* in depth *cough* discussion on exactly this matter (some NSFW dialouge).
