Paris Hilton Officially Enters Presidential Race-Video

If you’re still on the fence about who to vote for this November… you need worry no more.  Paris Hilton has officially made her presidential intentions clear in this response ad to the now infamous McCain / Hilton / Spears political. And you thought our country was in trouble.

Hurricane Bush

Of all the disasters we’ve witnessed around the world over the past seven years, few would argue that any top that of George W. Bush’s presidency. Unfortunately, this satire (from The Onion) makes more sense than reality. Can November get here any faster?

Barack Obama Supports Marijuana Decriminalization

This is a video from 2004 in which Barack Obama expresses his support for marijuana decriminalization. Asked about this, the candidate has said this is still his position.

The Hillary Problem: Women Should be NICE

070112_hillary_vmed_7awidec-1.jpgEverybody wants to tell me how they feel about Hillary.

Super Tuesday has come and gone. In spite of the fact that Hillary Rodham Clinton won the majority of the votes on that day, which usually cements the leading presidential candidates for both parties, her nomination as the Democratic Party candidate is not at all secure.

Obama has won eight straight primaries, and leads the race by a small but significant margin, aided by the fact that he continues to win over voter demographics that have been, in the past, more inclined to vote for Clinton.

This is, of course, fascinating - a close race, an important decision - and I’m more than willing to talk about the candidates’ policies, track records, voter bases, etc. with anyone who shows a vague interest in the subject. In fact, I keep getting suckered into conversations about it, only to face, again and again, the ugly truth: when it comes to Hillary Rodham Clinton, her politics are the last thing that anyone wants to talk about.

Most folks who want to talk Hillary with me forgo any discussion of her career. They’d rather focus on her personality - which is, according to people in my vicinity, cold, harsh, ambitious, calculating, conniving, aggressive, angry, bitchy, and even (gasp!) lesbian.

God help me, I try to engage with these people. But at some point during the endless recitation of Hillary’s character flaws, my eyes glaze over and I tune out. Because, I swear, no matter what they say, the translation software in my brain supplies the same meaning over and over again: not a girl, not a girl, not a girlRead More »

Colbert Denied Candidacy

Stephen ColbertThe word: unfortunate.

Stephen Colbert of the Colbert Report was snubbed of his dream Thursday - the dream of running America.

After paying the $2,500 filing fee needed to run as a Democrat in South Carolina Colbert was to be considered a presidential hopeful, until South Carolina’s executive committee stunted his publicity stunt, with Carol Fowler (the state party Chairwoman) citing that “[the committee takes] their responsibilities seriously. Our rules are pretty specific about what makes a legitimate candidate.”

Was the million-and-change strong Facebook group and endless publicity all for naught?

Since Colbert also refused to pay the outrageous sum of $35,000 to run on the Republican ticket it looks like this fantasy is coming to an end. Read More »

Stephen Colbert: Presidential Hopeful?

Stephen Colbert - president

Stephen Colbert announced the announcement Americans have wanted to hear, straight from the source’s mouth: he is running for President!

Acting oddly reserved - as well as staunchly American; check the bale of hay and brown-bottle beer - Colbert first announced that he would “consider” announcing an announcement on the subject of him running for President “on a more prestigious show.”

He did exactly that an hour later on his very own Colbert Report. Read More »

Dubya and Congress Numbers Hit an All-Time Low

George Bush

The approval rate of President George Bush and Congress has plummeted - again.

As of this morning, a Reuters/Zogby poll indicated that only a paltry 29 percent of Americans give Dubya the thumbs-up while a baffling 11 percent approve of the job Congress is doing. Both numbers are a record-low for each, leaving nothing short of complete doubt over the powers handling America’s policies. The country fears a recession within the next year - not good.

Stirring the pot even further was the release of a few more important percentages: only 27 percent of likely voters think that our policies are up to par while the vast majority (over 60 percent) is worried about the fate of our country at this time. Read More »
