What John McCain and Barack Obama are buying on Google [Politics]
Google is the modern American voter's oracle, able to provide an answer — perhaps not always the correct one, but always an answer — to almost any question. And it's very important to both presidential campaigns that Google show links to their websites as the answers, a privilege for which they're willing to pay. Both the McCain and Obama teams buy sponsored links on the search terms they believe voters are likely to use. Hitwise, a Web research firm, helped us dig up the campaigns' most-used se

David Kernell Sarah Palin EMAIL!
What did David Kernell do or not do with Sarah Palin’s email? Democratic Representative Mike Kernell allegedly says that David Kernell is under questioning in Sarah Palin’s email hacking! Mike Kernell allegedly won’t say any further details about David Kernell, the email hack investigation, or David Kernell’s whereabouts. A report tonight claims the following: “State Rep.

Sarah Palin's Daughter Caught Doing Drugs On Tape
 Heavens to murgatroid, will it ever stop? The Enquirer has done some digging and says that it came up with a video of Bristol Palin smoking pot on camera. It also had a source who like any true source would, spilled the beans regarding Levi's, cocaine buying, smoking Oxycontin off of aluminum foil, habits.They have such great parents! The video of Bristol is from 2 years ago when she was 15, and reportedly was giggling like crazy after taking hits. The video is also being labeled as a regular

Jessica Simpson defies logic, tops country charts
Despite enraging country music fans with her breasts at the Grand Ole Opry and giving horrible ass performances, Jessica Simpson's new album Do You Know debuted at the top of Billboard's country charts, according to Us Magazine: The album -- which sold 65,000 copies since coming out last week -- ranked No. 4 on the Billboard Top 200. Simpson's first single, "Come on Over," hit No. 18 on the Hot Country Songs list last month. Whoa whoa whoa. People paid money for a Jessica Simpson CD? My fortune cookie w

Obama, McCain: One 'ahead of curve?'
ESPANOLA, N.M.--Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Thursday he was "ahead of the curve" in calling for more regulation of the financial industry and hammered Republican rival John McCain for being a longtime opponent of government regulation. Appearing under a warm sun in this battleground state, Obama also mocked McCain's call for the firing of the chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission and encouraged supporters to set their sights higher between now and Nov. 4. "In the nex

Obama: Don't just 'get rid of one guy'
ESPANOLA, N.M. - Democrat Barack Obama said today that he was "ahead of the curve" in calling for more regulation of the financial industry and hammered Republican rival John McCain for being a longtime opponent of government intervention. Appearing under a warm sun in this battleground state, Obama also mocked McCain's call today for the firing of the chairman of the Security and Exchange Commission and encouraged supporters to set their sights higher. "In the next 47 days, you can fire the whole trick

BRAZIL DOUBLE-TAKE: Barack Obama's on the ballot there too!
*With Barack Obama on the ballot in at least eight local elections in Brazil, you might think the Democratic presidential candidate is keeping his options open in case John McCain winds up in the White House.      Not at all. Due to a quirk in Brazilian electoral law, candidates can put any name they want on the ballot, as long as it isn't offensive. At least eight candidates have chosen to be known as "Barack Obama."      The Illinois senator is hugely popular

Obama mocks McCain’s call to fire SEC chairman
AP - Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama promised new ideas Thursday to calm America’s financial meltdown and help struggling families avoid mortgage foreclosure, saying that "this is not a time for fear, it’s not a time for panic." Obama also heaped criticism and sarcasm on Republican rival John McCain and mocked his promise to fire the head of the Securities and Exchange Commission if elected president. "I think that’s all fine and good but here’s what I think," Obama sa

Obama Back On Top
Barack Obama has regained his national lead after a ten day post-convention bounce for John McCain. In the all-important Real Clear Politics average (which averages national polling), Obama has regained a lead of 1.7%. McCain had held as much as a 3% national lead over the last week. At the height of Obama's convention bounce he held a respectable 6% lead. Whether or not McCain's bounce faded naturally, is the result of the continuing horrible economic news, or is because of Obama's freshly

Obama & McCain on ‘60 Minutes’
‘60 Minutes” is taking the unusual step of devoting its entire broadcast on Sunday to profiles of John McCain and Barack Obama with fresh interviews. Scott Pelley plans to interview McCain in Wisconsin today, at the same time Steve Kroft is interviewing Obama in Nevada. The separate, 20-minute pieces will mix profile material with a snapshot of a moment in the campaign. Typically, “60 Minutes” segments are far shorter with longer lead times. “The beauty of being able to do t

Obama Captures The Magic Of Hitler
To find anything comparable to crowds’ euphoric reactions to Obama, you would have to go back to old newsreels of German crowds in the 1930s, with their adulation of their fuehrer, Adolf Hitler. That says more about the Germans than Obama… Share and Enjoy: Posted: 18th, September 2008 | In: Barack Obama, Politicians, Twitterings - Best Of The Web.

Bill Clinton: Obama rides 'change' wave
The crisis on Wall Street could be helping Democrat Barack Obama regain some momentum in his race with Republican John McCain. So says Bill Clinton, the former president who presided over some good times. "The latest polls had Senator Obama up a little bit,'' Clinton said in an interview with Maria Bartiromo on CNBC's Closing Bell. "I think partly that's a function of the current distress, economic distress because I think the more people worry about the current set of circumstances, the more likely they

McCain Camp: Obama’s Spanish Ads Are Offensive
The McCain camp struck back at the Barack Obama’s ads in their attempt to tie John McCain to comments by conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh. Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart (R-Fla.) released a statement in behalf of McCain campaign. The statement indicated:”It is offensive and dishonest for Barack Obama to lie about John McCain’s record on immigration and years of support for the Hispanic community when it was Barack Obama himself who voted for ‘poison pill’ amendments t

Michelle Obama To Ladies: I’m Hot, Sarah Palin Is A Fat Pig
No one likes Michelle Obama because she went to Princeton and then glibly took her degree “on the road,” back to Chicago, where she lived off of welfare, like a slob, up to and including this day. And she hates America! Well, Smartypants gave her “critics” — basically, Michelle Malkin and a few other losers — more reason to attack her today when she asked voters not to decide their vote based on, “she’s cute.” And as the AP tells us in an objective news

Lindsay Lohan’s Dad To The Rescue After Barack Obama’s Campaign Nix
Lindsay Lohan, who blasted Sarah Palin on her political blog, was very open about her support for Barack Obama but the actress reportedly got a bit of a jolt from the Obama-Biden campaign. According to the report, the “Freaky Friday” actress was interested in becoming very involved in the Democratic ticket’s bid for the White House — even offering to host a series of events appealing to younger voters. The controversial actress’ offer to host campaign events gets a quick &

“Drill Baby Drill”, the new slogan by McCain/Palin.
This is some crazy chit. Disturbing…Funny… I found it on www.threadpit.com. This chirt costs $14.95. Would joo buy it??? I would have bought it if it had Antonio Villaraigosa and the Telemundo reporter, Mirthala Salinas, instead!!!

What Wouldn’t John McCain Do on ‘Saturday Night Live’?
Photo: Courtesy of NBCAt a panel discussion on Monday, Lorne Michaels downplayed the political influence of Saturday Night Live, saying, “The first thing you think about is whether [the sketch] is going to work and that it’s funny. You can’t think about the fate of Western civilization.” But then, the panel — which was held to commemorate the launch of the Museum of the Moving Image’s presidential-campaign-commercials Website The Living Room Candidate, and also featu

Let The People Vote For Obama Because They Like Michelle, It's Fine [News Roundup]
Michelle Obama is so endearingly naive. Today, she told her audience "People shouldn't make a decision this time based on, 'I like that guy' or 'she's cute.' And I'm talking about me." Michelle, at this point, let's just do whatever it takes to get your husband elected, okay? [Huffington Post] Especially since voting machines in 10 swing states are still fucked up. [CNN] And because John McCain is standing behind his remarks about not meeting with the democratically-elected Prime Minister of Spain unless he

Barack Obama Graciously Turns Down Lindsay Lohan's Offer of Support [Politics]
Actress Lindsay Lohan, so politically outspoken these days, recently lobbied some criticism, once again on her MySpace page, against Sarah Palin—the Alaskan warrior poet who, just in the nick of time, stopped a confused John McCain from wandering into a cave full of bears and was named his Vice Presidential running mate as thanks. She said that Palin hates gays ("media-obsessed homophobe!") and that that is bad. And now she wants to join the cause and drum up support for Barack Obama! Trouble is, O

Obama to Lohan: shut the f@*#k up
Barack Obama’s camp jumped on society’s bandwagon and announced they don’t want to be associated with Lindsey Lohan. Flame-junk recently went on a rant about her deep rooted hatred for Sarah Palin and John McCain on her MySpace page calling Palin a “media obsessed homophobe”. This would have been considered great free press for Obama except for the fact that nobody likes Lohan, therefore, nobody listens to the white noise that comes out of her mouth. The Chicago Sun-Times repor

Living Symbol of Extreme Wealth Decries Elitist Black Man [Ven Ikh Bin Rotshild]
Bad news, Obama partisans: a prominent female Hillary supporter has openly defected to John McCain, calling the Democratic candidate "an elitist." That supporter? Lynn Forester de Rothschild. You know, of the Rothschilds. The beloved Real American, salt of the earth banking and finance dynasty. Their very name is synonymous with heartland values like a life of suffocating spiritually empty glamor and excess. So we're sure John McCain is thrilled that he now has the support of Lady de Rothschild. Except, you

On the Net: Palin parodies populate online
Since Sen. John McCain named the Alaskan governor as his running mate, Palin has been the subject of countless videos on YouTube and other video sharing sites. Some praise the governor, while others are critical, but an overall fascination is obvious. The explosion of Palin parodies on the Web is perhaps unlike anything ever seen in politics. Seldom has any politician so quickly and so extensively become a muse for online lampooning. For starters, the "Saturday Night Live" sketch featuring Tina Fey as Pal
