In Which We Discuss:

1. Lila went to Netroots and she has stories.

2. Mitt Romney shows us that, unbelievably, there is a wrong way to hold a hot dog.

3. The greatest danger to children is not drag queens, it’s MTG showing us porn on the floor of the House.

4. The only obstacle to Joe Biden’s re-election? Stairs.

5. Unsurprisingly, cheating is now a legal way to qualify for the GOP Debates.

6. No Labels platform reflects the consensus of…crotchety rich old men.
