DEMOCRACY'S LEGACY

There Is Nothing That Carly Fiorina Hated More In The 90s Than Voting

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

Carly Fiorina is notable for exactly one thing: like three weeks ago, she became famous for having the Internet’s worst website. She thought it would be enough, you see, to let people know that the worlds “Carly Fiorina” sort of sound like “California,” and this is how she expected to defeat Barbara Boxer for her Senate seat. Just by pointing out this one thing. But now there’s a new Carly Fiorina thing!

POOR BILLIONAIRE LADY

Meg Whitman Never Voted Ever Because Of Her FAMILY, You Guys

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

Comical former eBay CEO and McCain campaign “female supporter” Meg Whitman, currently running for governor of California, has simply had a terrible last week. Some lib for the Sacramento Bee exposed her recently as a lousy civic bum who had never registered to vote before age 46. Dearest Meg has apologized numerous times since then, but has only now offered this mea culpa: “I was focused on raising a family, on my husband’s career, and we moved many, many times.” Hey, those are our reasons too!

But the choice of what appears to be a tank top — probably made of something expensive, of course… enriched uranium? — just reeks of New Money. Hey Meg, if you love the Internet so much, why don’t you go buy some sleeves. From a retail website. Yeah. (VOTE 4 GARY ‘N’ NORM “COLEMAN/COLEMAN” TICKET 2010$$) [YouTube]


LOSING BIDS

John McCain Lies About eBay, Too

Monday, October 27th, 2008

Bid on John McCain's presidential campaign!John McCain, that poor little rich boy, was born in an Admiral’s Castle in the 16th Century, so of course he knows nothing about the Internets, which is why he often repeats some weird depressing thing about how millions of Americans are desperately selling off their meager consumer belongings on eBay, as if there’s something dignified about auctioning off your beanie-baby collection to make rent. Oh, and did you know his wonderful campaign business-lady Secretary of McCain Commerce founded eBay all by herself? That is also a lie. MORE »
