Sarah Palin: John McCain Endorses Levi Johnston
SARAH Palin Watch: Anorak’s look at Sarah Palin in the news…
Yesterday the tabloids looked just past Sarah Palin’s moose ears and talked about her daughter, two-wombs Bristol. Today the broadsheets notice the pregnant teen, and the BBC just stares…
BBC: Main story – she reacted to her critics with “all guns blazing”. Is that a pun? Does she shoot hawks or doves?
Says BBC Breakfast’s Louise Minchin – who addresses viewers in the manner of a primary school teacher bringing out the big felt tips – “she hit back at her commentators in the press”.

Cricketer Carpets Chichester Over It’s Bin Policy
THE news in the Tabloid Telegraph is grim and it is dirty:
Council refuses to clean up spilt bin without staff qualified to wear wellies
Egads! Know that:
A council allegedly refused to clean up a dustbin that fell into a four inch stream because no-one “qualified” to wear wellington boots was available. An official from Chichester District Council also allegedly said that ropes and harnesses would be needed to prevent workers from being washed away.
Yeah, Chichester.

Can Angelina Jolie Ever Be In Hiding?
HOW long does Angelina Jolie need to be “in hiding” before she becomes a recluse?
And to complicate the matter: Can a celebrity ever be in hiding if they are being talked about on the cover of Grazia magazine?
Discuss.
Note: It takes time for Angelina and other celeb mums to think up baby names. As 14 observes in her new book…

Sarah Palin Picture Of The Day: The Great Trig-ger Hunt
ANOTHER day and with the new dawn arrives another picture of John McCain’s would-be VP Sarah Palin living the American dream:
At the age of 10, Sarah Palin got her very own bunny rabbit. Which means to say that she crouched down in the grass outside her family home, aimed her shotgun and blew its furry little head off
How can she lose..?

Polar Bear Watch: Narwhals For Global Warming
POLAR Bear Watch: Anorak’s look at polar bears in the news…
ON Reuters, readers learn:
Arctic sea ice shrank to its second-lowest level ever, U.S. scientists said on Wednesday, with particular melting in the Chukchi Sea, where polar bears were recently seen swimming far off the Alaskan coast.
The story is illuastrated by a picture of a polar bear – as it must be. The bear seems to be drowning in a choppy sea. Unless it’s put down first.

Ethan Persoff’s Bush-McCain Tijuana Bible O’ Porn
GEORGE Bush and John McCain in Mexican, pornographic sex encounter.
Mark Fraunefelder says: “Ethan Persoff (the fellow who is covering the riot police at the DNC) has printed a special edition of his (X-rated) McCain “Tijuana Bible” to hand out to folks at the convention.
Uncivil Society reports:
Any complete account of the evolution of communications media in the twentieth century must include the Tijuana Bible — small pornographic comics featuring bootleg versions of popular comic strips and celebrities….
In Denver this week, delegates to the Democratic National Convention will have the opportunity to get printed versions of this Bush-McCain Tijuana Bible, presented as a replica of a prophetic 1934 comic from Lieberman’s Lil’ Squeezer Books. Whatever one’s moral stance regarding porn & politics, it’s a rather clever piece of neo-retro performance art.
