BARACK OBAMA

A Children’s Treasury Of Hilarious Comments About The AP On Hillary’s Blog

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

This morning, the Associated Press wrote that Hillary would concede the delegate race to Barack Obama tonight, which is very nearly the same thing as “conceding the race.” The Clinton campaign then called this story 100% false and said Hillary won’t be concedin’ nothin’ tonight. And since Hillary’s rabid loyalists are already peeved with the media’s coverage of the campaign, the AP’s little “gambit” here has set off quite a storm on Hillary Clinton’s official “blog,” in the comments. An arbitrary selection of the best comments, after the jump. MORE »


GEORGE W. BUSH

One Wonkette Commenter Was Better Than The Rest Of You Yesterday

Wednesday, May 14th, 2008

We like to celebrate our commenters on those occasions when they write something so trenchant that it’s elevated to the purple plains of the Main Stream Media. Such was the case yesterday with Starred Commenter(TM) SayItWithWookies. On the post that yours truly titled “President Bush Gives Up Golf For Iraq,” S.I.W.W. — as (s)he is known in the Starred Commenter Lounge — commented “Has he thought about giving up Iraq for golf?”, making us feel stupid for not thinking of that (BANNED?). The comment was so good that it made the Washington Post newspaper. Congratulations! But what have you done for us lately? [Washington Post]


HILLARY CLINTON

Joe Scarborough & Hillary Clinton Like-Like Each Other

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

Apparently, Joe Scarborough has been nice to Hillary Clinton recently. Did you hear about this? No? Must’ve started during that Wright scandal, you know, when the Main Stream Media realized Barry was a freakish, church-going Muslim. In any event, here is Hillary in her Outer Space costume flirting with the host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, for the first minute or so. Then it’s just policy-talk or some such. [MSNBC]


DEMOCRATS

All Polls Must Have White Male Alternative

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

This Main Stream Media poll is clearly flawed with its options. Can CNN please explain why Barack Obama is on there and Ron Paul isn’t? [CNN]
