Hey wait a minute! You mean this Barack Obama, who was fairly liberal as an Illinois state senator, may have altered his position on such hot-button topics as gay marriage in order to become a more viable national candidate? It sounds crazy, but it just might be true!
Wow, this guy is a jerk. Here, in this exclusive CNN report on some old public-teevee food show in Chicago, we see that Barack Obama was being a fancy show-off even way back when he was a lowly state senator a few months ago. This restaurant-review episode never aired because Smooth Barry just shamed these [...]
DUMB RESOLUTION PROPOSED TO DUMB ILLINOIS SENATE PROBLEM: Anybody who saw Harry Reid on Meet the Press this weekend probably noticed two things: First, rimless eyewear has a feminizing effect on the middle-aged male face, and second, Rod Blagojevich has hilariously bent this guy so far over that every time Harry Reid appears in public [...]
The very terrifying Lynn Sweet reports: “WASHINGTON—I’ve learned that Gov. Blagojevich is poised to name former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris to replace President elect Barack Obama in the Senate on Tuesday afternoon… Blagojevich called a press conference for 2 p.m. Chicago time at the Thompson State of Illinois Center.” Well this is sure to [...]
SCREW YOU GUYS, I’M GOING TO THE JUNGLE: Rahm Emanuel is supposed to be cleared of any wrongdoing in the Obama team’s internal report on perceived collaborations with Gov. Blaggy, which will be released at 4:30 ET. But just in case, Rahm has peaced the fuck out to Africa. [HuffPo]
Mobland Chicago is all about crime, dancing on chairs while wearing fishnet/tuxedo combos, corruption, and gruesome paintings of terrible, naked politicians. This one bar, the world-famous Old Town Ale House, is also known for co-owner Bruce Elliot’s whimsical smutty paintings, such as recent sensation “Naked Sarah Palin.” Now he has painted a naked Rod Blagojevich, [...]
Do you see that, friends, do you see what the Chicago Sun-Times is writing about Blagodicks’ hair? This is like a bad version of 9/11 — the psychologists (the intelligence community) could tell from his sexy hair (the intelligence) that he would be comically corrupt (fly into two tall buildings). When will clinical psychologist Scott [...]
Ha ha, sucks: “WASHINGTON — Federal authorities on Wednesday identified Democratic Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. of Illinois as the potential United States Senate candidate who was portrayed in court papers made public Tuesday as being the most deeply enmeshed in the alleged scheme by Gov. Rod Blagojevich to benefit from his appointment of a new [...]
Wonkette political symbolism operative “Nicole” informs us of this photograph from the liberal New York Times depicting Blaggy, dressed to the nines, leaving prison after his best friend Barack Obama posted bail. We have a hunch that the very artistic NYT photographer was “going for something” by including this haunting poster of a common Chicago [...]
Ha, we all had a general idea about the atmospherics of “Chicago politics” — various scenarios involving sludge and trades and wires and smoke and $$$ come to mind, all smelling like dry air and farts — but when it invades Real America’s national news, all we want to do is cry! It’s like they [...]
Rod Blagojevich, the comically corrupt governor of Illinois, was arrested at his house this morning, by the Feds, for an absolutely insane amount of (alleged) crimes, including a brazen attempt to SELL Barack Obama’s old Senate seat to, literally, the highest bidder. Blagojevich also wanted the editorial board of the Chicago Tribune fired, in exchange [...]
DO NOT MESS WITH BANK OF AMERICA: Hmmm, curious! Just yesterday Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich was cold hangin’ with all the peoples who got fired from the window shoppe and threatening B of A with terrible consequences for cutting off that window shoppe’s line of credit. And TODAY, MYSTERIOUSLY, the Feds show up on the [...]
See that chrome jalopy there with the gal in it, just cruisin’? It’s a Dodge Neon, a spunky lil’ thing that the kids are always buying for their first cars. Well this lucky teen bought it used in late 2005 — only a handful of months after Barack Obama traded it in! To go work [...]
Possible next White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel is being terribly cruel to his fan base by reminding them that he is already married, with children. “I do know something about the White House and I have children now. I have a family,” he told WLS-TV in Chicago. These “children” of his might require [...]
Hmm, very interesting! Rahm Emanuel loudly pooh-poohed Howard Dean’s 50-state strategy — you know, the deal where you actually pretend that states besides Ohio and Florida matter in electing a president — and now he has been offered the job of Chief of Staff to that same strategy’s biggest benefactor, Barack Obama. Of course Emanuel [...]
