John McCain’s speech last night had two central themes. The first was designed to highlight the fact that he was a prisoner of war who was imprisoned during a time of war while he was also, incidentally, a POW. The second was a broadside against the Republican party designed to convince moderates and independents that [...]
It’s only been two years, but now, finally, the political season is finally really getting started! The Olympics are over. School is back in session. People are beginning to pay attention. The Democrats have chosen Joe Biden as their VP. (The Republicans have chosen Mitt Romney as their VP, but they’re going to hold off [...]
Paul Hogarth, frequent commenter and longtime friend of Pinkomag, has a new article over at The Huffington Post that could easily be a counterpoint to my “Oh Shit We’re PWNED!” article from yesterday.
One of his arguments is that while McCain has hammered away a Obama during the summer duldrums, Obama’s fund raising edge and superior [...]
Wilder raises a good question about the target audience for my post below. Here is a excerpt from our IM conversation:
Wilder: As I stated, I think the question comes down to who you think you’re reaching.
Stirling: That is a good question.
Wilder: If you tell my mother she needs to roll up her sleeves, she’ll throw [...]
I know this is probably the last thing you want to hear right now. I just think you ought to know. Obama is going to lose.
We are going to have the most conservative Supreme Court we have ever had. We are going to lose the right to an abortion. We are going to find ourselves [...]
Everyone has been watching the Olympics this weekend, ourselves included. But while we’ve been speculating whether Michael Phelps shaves, waxes, or is just freakishly hairless, the world has been going on without us. Here is a look at some of the things you may have missed.
The Republican National Committee hates Smarty farties.
The RNC is now [...]
Okay I need to calm down. Elections make me anxious (dressing and feeding myself daily also make me anxious, but still) and I’ve spent the week in a palpable state of panic that IT’S ALL SLIPPING AWAY omfg.
The “Obama as celebrity” meme is working!
Hillary might shank Barack in Denver! Or the altitude has he [...]
I know I’m a couple of days late, but here at Pinko I don’t think we’ve spent enough time highlighting the important cultural event that was the 2008 Sturgis Motorcyclin’ and Wife Beatin’ Rally.
I was just over at buffalochip.com looking for more info on John McCain’s Sturgis Keynote Address, and maybe a few nudie pictures [...]
John McCain’s latest campaign ad attacks Obama’s position on offshore drilling by comparing him to celebrities like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton.
No, I’m not kidding.
The game here appears to be to paint Obama as an over-hyped piece of pop culture who is essentially only famous for being famous. But is potraying your opponent as extremely [...]
Lots of crazy stuff happened this week. Ryan Seacrest proved that you shouldn’t swim for at least two hours after having Rhinoplasty. John McCain proved that the entire Republican platform now consists of whining about Barack Obama. And rapper Nas proved that threating Bill O’Rielly with cannibalism actually counts as elevating the debate over at [...]
