ELECTION 2008: Officially Retarded.

I was about halfway through reading about the latest bullshit, batshit crazy, all-time low for the 2008 Election when it occurred to me how much Mark Penn, Hillary Clinton’s lead strategist, looks like Larry Drake who played Benny on L.A.

Good News! We Can Kill Elephants Again!

South African Environment Minister Marthinus van Schalkwyk has lifted a 13 year ban on killing elephants. According to Schalkwyk, the elephant population has been booming in recent years.

Clinton to Obama: IRON MY SHIRT!

 
Wow, it sounds like Obama is really running a dirty campaign! So what if the stuff in that mailer is all true? He is way out of line! You don’t see those kinds of dirty tricks coming from the Clintons! It’s not like Hillary’s people are out there trying to paint Obama as a radical-anarchist-terrorist [...]

Best… Week… Ever…

McCaingerous could be headed to the big house, not the White House. Knowingly violating public finance system spending limits in the primaries could earn him up to five years in prison. Don’t worry. We understand he’s done hard time before. (What? Still too soon??) Maybe they’ll let Naughty Miss Vicki pay a conjugal visit.
Also, it [...]

He’s totally got it. From the NYT this morning:
The city’s health department is offering hepatitis A vaccinations “as a precautionary measure” to patrons who may have been exposed at Socialista, a West Village lounge and restaurant where a bartender was found to have the disease. Socialista is popular among celebrities, and Ashton Kutcher and Demi [...]
