There’s growing evidence that American Idol sensation Sanjaya Malakar and Decision 2008 sensation Barry Hussein Obama are the same person. If it’s not obvious that “Sanjaya” (right) is the same dude as Obama (left), here are some other striking similarities: MORE »

Yesterday, we celebrated the presidential candidacy of elaborate po-mo hoax Tom Vilsack with a montage of weird, evil shit his logo looks like. We missed one! The “English Socialist” ideology from 1984!


Finally, a candidate who promises upfront to enslave us all! MORE »

Tom Vilsack (Pete Vilsack? Ted? We’re pretty sure it’s one syllable) announced his candidacy for President today. Wow! This is big news, even though he already did it a couple weeks ago. And Joe Biden did too, about three times, but no one gives a shit about Joe Biden. Anyway, Vilsack has signs now, so he’s legit. Also, a theme song:

Just after 10 o’clcok [sic] Thursday morning, Vilsack and his family entered a Mount Pleasant gymnasium as the local high school band played a song titled “The Final Countdown,” by Europe.

They left out the part where he entered the gym on a Segway, but other than that, good color.

Also, Vilsack’s got a bitchin’ logo — and it looks like other things (copyright SPY MAGAZINE). Check it out, after the jump!
