Heart Did Not Give RNC Permission To Use ‘Barracuda’

Friday, September 5th, 2008

The real thing don't do the trick, you better make up something quickHeart was a late 70s Led Zeppelin cover band, and then one of the band members became a Pacific Northwest Hollywood Liberal Activist. With that sort of a history, it’s no surprise that Nancy Wilson is steamed that the Republicans were playing “Barracuda” all over the place last night to celebrate Sarah Palin, a woman who is only a snaggletoothed fish on the inside.

We’re Probably Leaving This ‘Convention’ Early Tonight To Go Drink Turpentine

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Did you see child embryo harvester loser Michele Bachmann speak, just now? She was looking pretty! Her speech was tragically boring, by Bachmann Standards, but she did say on CNN last night that Sarah Palin has more experience than “Barack Obama and Joe Biden combined.” Oh god now there is some young gal lip syncing on on the stage. Btw, look at those glass panels in front of the steps to the glossy stage. The steps are INACCESSIBLE and fraudulent, just like this whole thing, bah. AND STILL no one is here.


Celebrate America’s Achievements at the Canadian Embassy

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Not in Denver rocking the stadium with Barack Obama and Little Stevie Wonder? Well, lucky you! There’s fun stuff going on in D.C., too, and no ugly media people to muck it up. Enjoy sculpture, deejays, aliens and Dostoyevsky! MORE »


Obama Ad Unfairly Trashes George W. Bush’s Character

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Here’s a Fun new Obama ad that SLAMS John McCain for NOT GETTING THE ECONOMETRICS. This is offfensive — who is this horrible yacht-rocker changing the lyrics of a Sam Cooke song? This is just so racist against George W. Bush. [YouTube, Raw Story]


Toby Keith Is A Democrat?

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Toby Keith, the terrible country music singer who has spent the last seven years laughing at Arabs for getting killed by American bombs (2002 lyric: “we lit up your world like the Fourth of July”), is inexplicably a Democrat who supports Obama. This makes no sense. Perhaps he is one of those “Peter Beinart Democrats” who saturated our magazines and newspapers in the years after 9/11 — you know, like “we want sweeping health care reform, but we also really like bombing the shit out of Arabs.” Joe Lieberman is the worst … Wait, what was the question? Oh yes: weird redneck Toby Keith is a Democrat for Obama. [AP]


John McCain’s Latest Devious Attempt To Steal Retarded Women

Monday, June 9th, 2008

Here’s a post from the “McCain Report,” which is one of several terrible blogs on McCain’s website. He’s trying to steal Hillary’s old ladies by posting videos from ABBA, a Swedish pop quartet from the ’70s. After Vietnam, John McCain had sex affairs with the two girls in this group before divorcing his crippled wife for yet a different mistress. “Seriously.” [John McCain via HuffPo]


Roger Waters Supports Obama On Inflatable Pig’s Underside

Monday, April 28th, 2008

At the end of the annual, massive Coachella music festival in California this weekend, Roger Waters of Pink Floyd launched a big inflatable pig into the sky, seen here. It’s a political statement about endless war or some other liberal gripe. On the pig’s Hopeful underbelly, however, was the word “Obama” (that’s French for “Cheez-it”) with a checked ballot-box next to it. So if Obama were a pig, and Roger Waters were American, he would vote for the Obama pig. [AP/Yahoo]


Orrin Hatch Pens Glorious Song For WALNUTS!

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

Utah Senator Orrin Hatch is an accomplished musician, and these days he’s using his natural gifts to celebrate his homosexual love for President John McCain. His new song, “Together Forever,” is a lovely ode to John McCain’s Campaign for America. Try syncing it up with a vigorous reading of John McCain’s economic plan — right when it mentions the reduction in corporate tax rates from 35% to 25%, there’s quite possibly the best staccato flourish Hatch has composed in 17 years. Lyrics after the jump! MORE »


Major Sinbadgate Player Sheryl Crow Endorses Obama

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Just like Sinbad, former Bosnia sniper envoy and popular musical artist Sheryl Crow has stabbed Hillary in the back. She has endorsed Barack Obama on her blog, writing, “I believe, like Barack Obama, that we can change our future, but not by repeating our history. It’s my belief that the idea that Barack Obama cannot do the job because of his lack of experience is an empty argument for we have put our faith in experienced Washington insiders who have lied and cheated and look where that has gotten us.” Indeed, it is time for old Washington insider candidates like Texas’ George W. Bush to go away. [Sheryl Crow]


America’s Most Elitist Musician Endorses Obama!

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

The elitism of Barack Obama has reached new depths. Famous Rock Star Bruce Springsteen, a gay French white wine-sipper, has endorsed Barry on his website, citing Obama’s potential “to lead that project and to lead us into the 21st Century with a renewed sense of moral purpose and of ourselves as Americans.” Blah blah blah, he likes how Hopey is a Communist and that’s all. After the jump, more about Bruce Springsteen’s elitist credentials. MORE »
