It is destined to join Looking For Mr. Goodbar and Ken Russell's The Devils on the "DO NOT RELEASE ON DVD EVER EVER EVER list.

It's available out there, ya just gotta hunt for it.

Still, it's interesting to think about what would happen if Liberals started shooting people the way the Teabaggers do.

watching some nutbag blowing people away? Maybe this is an attempt to make people laugh at themselves and relieve tension--but somehow I think it misses the mark (excuse the pun), IMHO. I have a great sense of humor but this creeps me out.
