The 2014 mid-term elections are over, and the inmates have taken over the asylum. Prepare for wingnuttery like you’ve never seen before.

Last Friday, I had a lot of fun poking at the nuttiest candidates on the ballot. Wednesday morning I woke up to a mind-numbing reality: they all won.

There are some you may not have heard of, but they’re soon going to be making policy that may impact you.

Right-wingers got bent out of shape when Sen. Mary Landrieu (D, Louisiana) suggested that race might be why President Obama is disliked in the South. After all what race got to to with it? What’s race got to do with any of this stuff either?

The inmates have taken over the asylum, and before long they’ll start legislating.

Or maybe not. Right-wing media was incensed that President Obama declared his intent to work with Republicans.

Never mind that soon-to-be Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said the same thing earlier the same day.

Wingnuts spewed outrage all over Twitter that President didn’t just resign and hand in the White House keys.

Plus, wingnut media has a message for Republicans: “You weren’t elected to govern!”
