Check Out The Hot New Sarah Palin/Turkey Grinder Bloodporn

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

Sarah Palin pardoned a turkey at an abbatoir today to celebrate Thanksgiving, a full week beforehand. After pardoning the turkey, Palin partook in her favorite post-election hobby — answering questions from the media — while a turkey butcher worked in the background SLAUGHTERING A TURKEY IN A DEATH GRINDER, while smiling, a la Fargo. It is hilarious. Equally hilarious are the MSNBC captions in this clip, such as, “Gov. Palin Not Realizing Incongruity Of Her Words Versus Her Backdrop.” Liberals. [YouTube]

Ted Stevens Inexplicably Concedes

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

Ted Stevens has represented Alaska in the Senate since the days of Pangaea, when Alaska was a Land Bridge from Russia and he became famous by killin’ Cro-Magnon commies who kept crossing over to take factory jobs from “real Americans.” He wouldn’t resign from the Senate after being convicted on seven counts and wouldn’t drop out of his Senate race. This makes it all the more shocking that he has conceded the race to [random warm-bodied Democrat] today, after losing. His Very Classy statement follows! MORE »

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

It's... Piper!Today is an exciting day on the Corner, the best National Review blog on the Internet, period.

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

Doctor President Ron Paul recently went on Alex Jones’ conspiracy theory radio show and said this, about Obama and the G-20 meeting (which caused terrible traffic in certain parts of DC last weekend, and nothing else): “A world central bank, worldwide regulation and world control of the whole system, of all the commodities and all the natural resources, what else can you call it other than world government?” MORE »

Diane Sawyer, so tan!That girl who nailed Eliot Spitzer, Ashley “Alexandra” Dupre, has given an interview to ABC’s Diane Sawyer as part of Sawyer’s “Prostitution in America” investigative journalistic reportorial KGB-spy series. Look forward to all sorts of juicy nuggets along the lines of: “In high school, Dupre was an honor student, worked in a restaurant and ‘never really socialized and went … to any of the parties, the high school parties. I got along with everyone, I was kind of popular. I was pretty popular.’” If she was so popular, WHY DIDN’T SHE GO TO THE PARTIES? You know, The High School Parties? That’s all. [ABC News]
