Barack-omania, Brother!
Filed Under Current Events, Politics | Leave a Comment
It’s over for Hillary. Hulk Hogan has endorsed Barack Obama. Gee, I sure hope they don’t let the Hulkster’s kid drive in the inaugural parade. If Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock also come out in favor of Obama, consider me sold! “Keep sayin’ your prayers, eatin’ your vitamins, raisin’ taxes, socializin’ medicine, punishin’ [...]

The McCain Scrutiny
Filed Under Current Events, Politics | Leave a Comment
If John McCain is the GOP nominee, the Democrats will be as excited as Kwame Kilpatrick getting a text message. Why? Because no matter which party wins in November, they’ll essentially have someone in the White House. It’s no secret how I feel about McCain’s solid RINO status, but, just as I was about to [...]

This comes from Mitt Romney’s concession speech in Florida tonight, where he lost by about 4% to John McCain: “We’re not going to fix Washington by sending the same people back to sit in a different chair.” ‘Nuff said.

Democrats Enter The Twilight Zone
Filed Under Current Events, Politics | Leave a Comment

Hillary Clinton, baby-momma to our nation’s “first black president,” has been thoroughly denied by black voters at the polls in favor of Barack Obama, a real black person — who was then promptly transformed into a [...]

It’s Bush’s final State of the Union before he gets a tearful goodbye from the Democrats and some Republicans. From my count, there were $892 quadrillion worth of proposals made [...]

WaPo Gives Great Headline
Filed Under Current Events, Politics | Leave a Comment
The audible snickers you hear are coming from the Washington Post’s headline writers concerning Ted Kennedy breaking loyalty with Bill Clinton: “Kennedy Will Endorse Obama in Blow to Clinton” Using the word “blow” in the same headline with “Obama” and “Clinton” is a chuckle-inducing three-way of homonyms and suggestive wordplay for the more immature among [...]
