It appears that the question of whether the federal government is going to bail out the state of California has been rendered moot. Two large banks have announced that they...

It's 1994. The GOP promised to dismantle social programs, cut taxes and balance the budget. Newt Gingrich massaged the message, and the "Me Generation" bought it hook, line and sinker. This was the new GOP, and they had made...

Another day, another Obama infomercial. President Barack Obama held a townhall style meeting today, one in which the audience was "hand-picked" by White House staffers. It was conveniently "moderated" by...

Unbelievably, the EU commissioners are now moving ahead with plans to impose a new 10% tax on mobility scooters imported into Europe, often manufactured in the United States. But some like physicist Stephen Hawking are angry as this will dramatically...

They dropped a couple of new "spinoff" commercials with the cavemen today, one with the airport (he's talking to someone on the phone about the ad), and one with the therapist (the caveman has a doll he's supposed to roleplay with).
It's really just a metrosexual sitcom with extra hair.
I still think there should be an Erin Esurance cartoon...

I'm surprised Geico hasn't run into problems with these ads. The caveman are a satirical stand-in for every whiny, self-proclaimed victim group in the U.S. I'd expect every one of them to claim to be "victimized" by these ads.

Of course you can make fun of Christians! They believe that some wizard in the sky directs every aspect of their life. Same as we can make fun of any other religion. Thats a choice they've made to be that stupid. A race isn't. And maybe if southerners picked up a book or a newspaper they would out grow their stereo type as well.

I have no idea what you're talking about Kitty, but I'm sad to see you're one of them. Go play on the rest of wizbang with the other right wingers. This section isn't like that.

We'll watch it. I think replacing Cavemen with just about every stereotype will make for some funny stuff.
Who's still making fun of Southern Christians? That's so 1980s.
Whatevah.
