HILLARY CLINTON

Wrestling Ad Generates Exciting New Name For Senator Clinton

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

So much for that dream ticketConservatives have a brand new nickname for Hillary Clinton, and it is even worse than “Hillz,” “Hillaryous,” “Downhillary,” or any of the other meaningless terrible nicknames that liberals usually throw around.

BILL CLINTON

The Other Hillary-Barack Wrestling Match

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008


After the actual candidates’ messages to World Wrestling Entertainment’s viewers, there was a fake match — the first fake match in Wrestling History — featuring two faux candidates. What else to say? Our tipster sums it up nicely: “In an election cycle where wrestler endorsements are announced with fanfare, and public statements on WWE and American Idol, this is not the most disheartening low-culture moment of the campaign. But I did yearn for Bill Clinton to come back so we can farcically caricature politicians in ways that won’t lead us into a prolonged round of headshaking. The amatuer wrestler portraying Bill is the saving grace of the day the profession of politics died.” It is the most authentic moment of the past seven weeks, years, or decades. [YouTube]

Here’s Hillary promising to “stick it up your ass” if you don’t vote for her, and Barack threatening to “send you to white concentration camps” for being so fat and dumb, and John McCain being used as a folding chair to comically knock the teeth out of a wrestler called “WAL-NUTZ Da Destroya.” [YouTube]

Wonk’d: A Supremely Bad Hair Day

Friday, September 8th, 2006

alito.jpgWashington people just never quit working. Bill Kristol rises early to have breakfast with congressmen, Michael Chertoff spends Friday nights securing the homeland’s movie theaters, and Valerie Plame reads political non-fiction on street corners cause she can’t get enough. And kindly father Alito (at right — ain’t he loveable?) spends his weekends carting his daughter’s luggage all over 37th street. This plus philandering soccer players, jaywalking TV gangsters, and mustachioed wrestlers, after the jump!

MONDAY! MONDAY! MONDAY! With the R! N! C!

Wednesday, March 1st, 2006

carolynweyforth.JPGAnd the wrestling pictures keep coming in.

We asked earlier which end of the political divide has the cuter operatives — the Republicans jumped to answer our call, sending in more goofy pics of them and theirs with giagantic, unshaven wrestlers/future Governors. Ah, the lovely ladies (and one guy) of the RNC — above, Angel Paulson, Gabi Plumlee, and Mina Nguyen (and a wrestler).

So, Democrats — what’s up? The rest of your competition is after the jump:

Politics and Pro Wrestling — What More Could We Ask For?

Wednesday, March 1st, 2006

Hotline is way, way more fun than usual today. Apparently, the WWE, tired of mere “rocking” of the vote, has gone the next step and started “Smackdown the Vote,” which provides the funniest method yet for political strategists to desperately grasp at the youth vote. They had an event last Monday night. Hotline went stayed home. But someone sent in the pictures:
