Funny Hillary Cannot Operate Simple Beverage Machine At Gas Station


Hillary's trip to the gas station not only threw the AP into a blind rage, but it also found our candidate struggling to operate the dastardly coffee machine. Don't call her a hypocrite yet, however! That looks like a cappuccino or — dare we say — latte machine, so it makes sense that blue-collar Hillary had no dang idea how to use the mechanism. [YouTube]

Associated Press Vehemently Hates Hillary

You may have gathered from this photo that Hillary, like ol' Barry Obama last week, put on a big media show at a freaking gas station today to illustrate how much the high prices hurt her feelings, as an American motorist. The Associated Press — the most objective news source ever — covered this event, as they have every other event in world history, and put out the most bitter, sarcastic write-up imaginable. Check out the first few paragraphs after the jump, because they are a stitch. More »

Washington Crippled By Crazy Trucker Protest


It may look like common D.C. traffic, but all those honking trucks around the Capitol today are actually part of a Ron Paul trucker protest because diesel costs like $5 a gallon and the truckers are all going broke, so they want John McCain to make diesel free, and he said okay because he is also a poor trucker. Fuel riots, food rationing, people thrown out of their homes by the millions ... who knew 2008 would be so exciting? [Associated Press]

Barack Obama Is So Weird

Barack Obama has been giving his Hopey speeches at gas stations recently, because they are very costly and he only visits the most expensive centers of commerce to buy things. So after buying his "premium gas" for his Lexus motorcar, he decided to take out his mahogany dais and speak to the Cretins purchasing regular "fossil fuels" with their wooden Discover credit scrip. He looks so dumb doing this, at the gas station, that we must take a full photo tour exposing his Rich dumbness. More »

Barack Will Pay For Your Gas Money, Mr. Hobo!


This is Barack Obama's new ad for North Carolina, and it's about gas money. It's titled "Nothing's Changed." He discusses the Big Oil companies, concluding with "I won't let them block Change anymore." What's the deal here — are he and "Hope" breaking up or something? [YouTube]

9/10 NEVER FORGET: World War III Has Apparently Started, In Mexico, And As Usual It's About Oil

Hey Mexico, WTF? Today is supposed to be the magical day of Expecto Petraeus! And tomorrow’s the big 9/11 celebration, okay? What is with you people having some kind of Star Wars-esque rebellion attacking the gas pipelines and crazy semi-trucks full of dynamite blowing up on the highways and killing 34 people? More »

Marion Barry's Gas Problem

AP reports "Barry Shows Gasification Machine, But Can't Turn It On." Didn't James Brown write a song about that? Seriously, that's the headline of the story and it just gets better. Appearing with Dick Gregory, his Crackiness and the comedian, "argued on Wednesday about his placement of the machine in the parking lot before police intervened." Bitch set him up, clearly. Futher, "The gasification machine's inventor, Simon Romana, says it can use garbage or sewage to create pollution-free electricity and drinking water. Romana says his machine burns hotter and cleaner than sewage gasification plants and large incinerators, but he won't explain why." Well, "gassification" sure sounds scientific... More »
