Pinko Magazine Hedonism + Activism

PINKO DAILY BRIEFS: It was a slow Sunday for us. Pinko drank too much at that BAM event took the day off. The news and the election did not. The quick rundown: Congressional leaders reached a deal on the bailout but now it may not have enough Democratic votes to pass. Here’s a compelling piece on the top 5 reasons why it shouldn’t. The election is in prep mode for Thursday’s Vice-Presidential debate; this is the wildest advice I’ve heard for how Joe Biden should deal with Sarah Palin. And the Republicans are now trying to gain traction out of that “bracelet moment” from the debate, with the dead soldiers father saying Obama wasn’t supposed to reveal his name, but his ex-wife and mother saying she was ecstatic and honored, meaning that the McCain campaign is now exploiting the family of a dead soldier. Mission accomplished!

Also this is the point in the election where we should all be figuring out the best weekend to make phone calls, knock on doors, go to Ohio, etc. PinkoJenn will have a dispatch for us later about where she at, and why it’s the coolest thing ever to canvass and not gay. Here’s a quick way to make some phone calls this week.

Lastly, Sarah Palin is headed to Sedona, Arizona for debate prep. That’s all the excuse I need to send you on down for the best tex mex at an affordable price: Stevie Nicks Fajita Roundup. (Scroll down that page for the video. It’s un-embeddable what old school internet!)
