McCain, Obama, job-losses: 'Tough times'
"These are tough times... tough times,'' Republican John McCain said on the campaign trail in Wisconsin today, relaunching his bid for the White House with Sarah Palin by his side. Democrat Barack Obama, waging his own campaign for the White House, maintained today that McCain is insensitive to the current turmoil of the American economy. "I don't think this is because John McCain is a bad person,'' Obama told his campaign audience today. "I just think he doesn't get it.' Not only getting it, but also

Green Screen Behind McCain Actually Lawn of, Uh, Middle School In, Uh, North Hollywood
America laughed again last night as a terrible “green screen” once again appeared behind John McCain, during his big speech at the RNC. Well, the “green” was actually the lawn of a school in North Hollywood, California. And the school is called “Walter Reed Middle School.” And the random idiot assigned the task of picking John McCain’s video background during the biggest speech of his career was apparently told to put a picture of Walter Reed Army Medical Center on

Monkey Menace Panders to McCain/Palin Crowd [FNFF]
The damned moneys. Despite the warnings, the hundreds and hundreds of warnings, everyone insists on treating these near-human masterminds of evil as being just like us!

Now that John McCain and scandal-bot Sarah Palin are wooing the family values crowd—while forcing that crowd to disown everything they every said—the monkeys have found a way into the heart of the Christian Right. The little wicked creatures are MARRY

John McCain Will Finally Finish Destroying America’s Financial System
Hmm, this sounds kind of familiar if you remember the Keating Five and S&L Collapse: “Nevada regulators have shut down Silver State Bank. It was the 11th failure this year of a federally insured bank. Andrew McCain, son of Republican presidential nominee John McCain, was a member of the bank’s board, but recently stepped down for ‘personal reasons …. ‘” Ha, whatever, McCain Crime Family. Meanwhile, the federal government is about to seize mortgage giants Fannie Mae a

It’s Ki-Ki!
Kiki Dunst is all grows up, my friends!  She combed her hairs and she put on a brazooka.  Well done, Kiki Dunst.  Well done!  Her pal has on the cutest dress evers… hers not so much, though.  I stole the ‘my friends’ thingy from John McCain.  He gives me the creeps whenever he says that with that quivering voice of his.   By the way, John McCain is a pervert.  I was watching Michael Moore on Larry King Live, and according to Michael Moore, John McCain once said that Chelsea Clin

10 Speech Backgrounds Designed To Make John McCain Look Less Pale
After watching John McCain's Convention Speech last night in front of an alternating bright green background, a bright blue background, and an apparent Flonase commercial, it's clear that the Republican presidential nominee is in dire need of some less vibrant, less pastel-ey backgrounds to draw attention away from his overwhelmingly pale television facade. Here are ten suggestions: 1. Core Of The Sun 2. The Dude From "Powder" 3. Abominable Snowman 4. The White Album 5. Freshm

Gay GOP Accepts, Loves Absence
The Log Cabin Republicans this week endorsed John McCain, calling him inclusive and declaring that he has "stood by" gay citizens.

Unlike previous conventions, the Republicans this year steered clear of sexual politics. Though their [...]

The Band of Band That's Rejected McCain
For the third time this election season, a band has asked the Republican party to not use one of its songs to introduce the party's presidential and vice-presidential nominees, John McCain and Sarah Palin. Much like Bruce Springsteen, who in 1984 asked Ronald Reagan to stop using "Born in the USA" on his reelection campaign trail, the artists say their politics don't jibe with those of the GOP candidates. After the jump, the artists and the songs to which they've asserted control.

Turn Around?
Right-wing leader James Dobson recently inched closer to backing John McCain's presidential dreams. The McCain camp's talks with the Log Cabin Republicans, however, have journalist Steve Benen wondering if the GOP's base will end up retreating: "I'm going to assume that the James Dobson crowd…will not be at all pleased to hear any of this.

Heart Did Not Give RNC Permission To Use ‘Barracuda’
Heart 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. Here is what Wilson told Entertainment Weekly: I think it’s completely unfair to be so misrepresented. I feel complet
