    William K. Wolfrum’s Morning – June 29, 2010

    The Grandpa Lady Gaga Poker Face Dance Video. Now that I’ve seen it, I can’t unsee it. So I’m making you see it, as well.

    News

    Hurricane Alex: Nothing enhances an unprecedented oil disaster like a good, old-fashioned Hurricane.

    A Kind Word and a Gun: The Supreme Court gives gun owners another victory. Obama’s ultimate dream of stealing everyone’s guns just got a little tougher.

    Kagan Confirmation: Elena Kagan says she’d be a modest member of SCOTUS. Republicans say she’s an activist who’ll kill us all. Who’s right?

    Russian Spies!: Or not. But let’s say it again for emphasis – the FBI busted some Russian Spies!

    Sports

    Spain v. Portugal: Iberian supremacy is on the line as these two rivals meet to see who will move on to the World Cup’s Elite Eight. Prediction: Cristiano Ronaldo crying.

    Brazil Cruises to Holland: Brazil was more than impressive in it’s 3-0 swallowing of Chile in its first knock-out stage round. Now things get tough, as a talented Holland Squad stands in front of the Brazilians and the World Cup semi-finals.

    Venus Williams Out at Wimbledon: I openly admit to being a fan of the Williams’ sisters. So I’m sad to report that Venus just got trounced by 82nd-ranked Tsvetana Pironkova.

    Blogs

    Dvorak: Terrorist babies. Yes, the Republicans are afraid of terrorist babies. Let Rep. Louie gohmert explain:

    AmericaBlog: The World and Hoover-ite economics.

    American Prospect: Why, oh why can’t we just outlaw bloggers once and for all?

    Raw Story: Gen. Stanley McChrystal reportedly to retire. Probably should check with Rolling Stone first.

    Broadway Carl: Sarah Palin is like a box of chocolates. Really ignorant chocolates.

    Digby: Oh, those radical DFH protesters.

    Tweet of the Day

    Just blow up the fucking #BPoilgusher, already. Screw it, why go slow death. Cross fingers, nuke shit out of it, enjoy show.”
