Feel the glamour!That President Obama sure knows how to throw a party! Last night he entertained 250 of his favorite famous friends, plus “the entire Avant family” which we have never heard of, at a swank Beverly Hills fundraiser that featured coked-out midgets on swings and flying horse tricks.

Arlen Specter was there, too, shooting ping-pong balls out of his intimate bodily orifices for $10 a pop.

The event was a rousing success, because Hollywood superstars love nothing more than to be told that they are politically important and personally fascinating. They also love marinated artichokes, which were available in great abundance.

As much as he annoys me LA Times, it’s Seth Rogen. Not Rogin or Rogain or Rogon.

What, no ScarJo singing “Happy Birthday, Mr President”?

hobospacejunkie May 28, 2009 at 10:19 am

But Hollywood superstars are politically important and personally fascinating. Just ask that actor/contributor to Breitbart’s site. He’ll tell you all about himself.

Conspicuous Bulge May 28, 2009 at 10:19 am

It’s $10 now?!? At last year’s party, Specter was only charging $5 – and you got to keep the ping-pong ball as a souvenir. Must be The Inflation.

loquaciousmusic May 28, 2009 at 10:21 am

This morning, NPR said that “actors Seth Rogan and Marisa Tomei” were also there.

Seth Rogen and Marisa Tomei? Could there be a more random pairing?

[re=326192]loquaciousmusic[/re]: How about Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore. Now that would look ridiculous.

What? No fresh, raw, baby seal hearts? For 30 grand you think they would serve something exotic

Custerwolf May 28, 2009 at 10:28 am

I know someone who used to be an Avant bodygarde.

They may be dumb, self-absorbed assholes, but at least they feel guilty enough about it to pony up some money.

Who doesn’t love a good marinated artichoke, especially in mashed potato form?

Coked out midgets? You sure this wasn’t held in Bruges?

What if they’d had an orgy and nobody came?

bitchincamaro May 28, 2009 at 10:46 am

The president was introduced by Katzenberg, who said, “If you look in the dictionary under ‘grace under fire,’ it will say Barack Obama.”

So, you pay 30K, and you have to suck his dick, too?

[re=326207]nbawriter[/re]: I want contortionists. A la Henry and June. Call me spoiled, but it’s not a Hollywood party without naked contortionists, an extramarital hookup, and a bunch of people jetting after some mean asshole ODs in the den.

[re=326201]MARCdMan[/re]: Sunchoke rosemary mashed taters — ie Jerusalem artichoke, which is a root similar to ginger, not actually an artichoke. Teh eleetizes made me go look it up. Still confused by this ‘kabachi ravioli’ business, though.

For yr morning lulz: Nobel prize winner makes sensible suggestion to help mediate the effects of global warming. British newspaper reports on it on their website. American wingnuts invade. Hilarity ensues.

“Oh no the sky is falling again. What a crack-pot this liberal religion is going to quicken the down fall of the County that I love. I think that big yellow ball in the sky is the cause of heating and cooling in the world not us little ants. This is just another way for Government to take away liberty. I find it funny that the only counties who need to be green are America and the ones in Europe. While we move to cripple our ecomomies all at the alter of Global Warming we are killng out industrial power which has been the engine of advancement in the world for the past 200 years. We do this as China and other countries build coal burning plants and other complexes of “evil”. Our ability of produce goods save the world twice in the last century and with that gone we will be thrown to the dust bin of history if we don’t change course.”

[re=326199]Custerwolf[/re]: So what is an Avant. I could google, but that would be like work. It would be cool if they were coked up midget contortionists but I’m not holding out much hope.

[re=326230]TGY[/re]: Probably more than the Russian film industry (Stolywood) has.

snideinplainsight May 28, 2009 at 11:10 am

Wonketteers, if you are going to report responsibly, you MUST TELL US ALL if there were any TelEPromPtOrZ in proximity to the president, wherever and whenever he speaks. I’m assuming he did speak at this event?

x111e7thst May 28, 2009 at 11:10 am

What would an ascetic orgy look like? Not quite so brackish water and slightly less stale crusts?
Slightly softer sackcloth and fewer ashes. I’m having trouble picturing this thing.

Lascauxcaveman May 28, 2009 at 11:11 am

Coked-out midgets on swings? Flying horse tricks? Ping-pong ball tricks? AND marinated artichokes? How could the MSM miss all these important details (but one)?

And they wonder why everyone is dissing them these days.

Turd Way May 28, 2009 at 11:13 am

I heard Obama and his SS detail were tripping balls between Vegas and Beverly Hills.

Custerwolf May 28, 2009 at 11:16 am

[re=326233]x111e7thst[/re]: “Avant-garde (pronounced [avɑ̃gaʁd] in French) means “advance guard” or “vanguard”.[1] The adjective form is used in English, to refer to people or works that are experimental or innovative, particularly with respect to art, culture, and politics.”

[re=326233]x111e7thst[/re]: [re=326246]Custerwolf[/re]: Yes, but that’s not what the reference is. It alludes to a family that is a “mainstay of the African American political elite,” headed by patriarch Clarence, the former chairman of Motown.

http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/celebrity/la-et-cause29-2008dec29-pg,0,3260851.photogallery?index=6

So, to correct my earlier post: Not so much “Idiot Avants” as “Avante [Old] Garde.”

Marquis de Villers-St-Paul May 28, 2009 at 11:30 am

The president went on to thank Katzenberg, saying “If it weren’t for you, we would not be in the White House.”

So he’s now referring to himself as “we”? First there where the Dijon mustard, now a pluralis maiestatis! What next!?

Marquis de Villers-St-Paul May 28, 2009 at 11:33 am

[re=326250]Marquis de Villers-St-Paul[/re]: “where” -> “were” -> “was”. Too much editing in one sentence. We are not satisfied with our orthography.

[re=326223]SmutBoffin[/re]: Wow. That was awesome. It’s almost as good as all the idjits declaring that it’s stupid to make sure your tires are inflated to the correct pressure because NOOBAMA recommends it.

I worked in a bookstore in Sacramento CA that didn’t have AC. The owner painted the roof white and it made a difference of between 10-15 degrees in the summer. It’s simple and it works, therefore it can’t be something the wingtards support.

[re=326223]SmutBoffin[/re]: Almost none of the posters actually read very carefully. Not surprising. Chu was not quoted as saying “paint”: he was quoted as saying “lightening” instead.

So all the mob goes on and on saying the same thing about paint. And lots of comments pointing out how white they are.

Every time I think I’ve heard the dumbest of dumb, someone says something even dumber.

much like chuck todd, i’m outraged that the president is doing what presidents have always done in their spare time: raising money. why is nobody but chuck todd holding him accountable, for not being chained to his desk doodling about the economy, while suffering rich people are losing their millions on wall street?!? why do barry obama and that racist mexican chick hate america?

Lord Growing May 28, 2009 at 1:29 pm

It was his jowls, right?

Canuck13652 May 28, 2009 at 1:52 pm

And it was really nice of Obama to make fun of the gay people outside protesting DADT, DOMA, and Prop 8, and asking him to live up to his promises to repeal the first two and to get us functional “marriage” equality at a federal level. Thanks, Barry.
