Sarah Palin And Average White Trash

SARAH Palin Watch: Anorak’s look at Sarah Palin in the news…

Sam Harris writes in the LA Times: “Palin: average isn’t good enough – She’s not qualified to be president, and in picking her, McCain shows that he has little respect for the presidency.”

First up, the John McCain death cult:

The actuarial tables on the Social Security Administration website suggest that there is a better than 10% chance that McCain will die during his first term in office. Needless to say, the Reaper’s scything only grows more insistent thereafter.

Gotta have a death cult of your want to be President. It’s one of the qualifications.

Barack Obama: My Muslim Faith (Video)

AS Clive Davis says: “The loony Right jumps on his reference to ‘my Muslim faith’. The Washington Monthly comes to the rescue by providing the full context. Not that the conspiracy theorists will pay any heed, of course.”

Russell Brand’s Retarded Call For World President Obama

THE BBC is leading with news of MTV’s 25th annual Video Music Awards.

It features Britney Spears, and the news that she didn’t do anything newsworthy, and Russell Brand, the try-hard comedian and watered down Jerry Sadowitz.

Brand has got his big break. What will risqué, outrageous, cray-zee Russell do? And note that the man whose style he apes began a show in Canada with “Hell Moose-f*****s” and a gig for anti-racism with “Nelson Mandela… What a ****!”

Says Russell Brand:

“Please, America, elect Barack Obama. On behalf of the world.”

Mail Readers Respond To Ivan Lewis’s Apology

IVAN Lewis is the 41-year-old Health Minister apologising for sending loads of text messages to 24-year-old Susie Mason, an assistant who worked in his private office in Whitehall.

Yeah, that Ivan Lewis, the one who teaches us to hate ourselves.

The Mail illustrates the images with shot of Ms Mason dressed in jeans and cut-away top. The image is removed from her Facebook profile – Facebook: the sensation-seeking hack’s first port of call.

DAILY MAIL: “Anger at fake Sarah Palin photos as smear campaign makes her ‘look like a stripper’”

Sarah Palin: Scott Richter Moves For Secrecy

TABLOID Baby on Scott Richter, the man accused of having an affair with Sarah Palin has filed an emergency motion to have his divorce records sealed!

The McCain campaign threatened to sue the National Enquirer for reporting that Sarah got it on with Scott Richter, her husband’s former business partner. The religious right “family values” wing will probably give her a pass on this one, just like they gave her unwed daughter a pass on the teen pregnancy.

But imagine if this were the Obamas… or if Michell Obama had belonged to a political party that wanted to secede from the United States…

Why imagine- let’s make it up and stick it on the web…

Celebrity Quote Of The Day: Oprah Winfrey On Sarah Palin

SAYS Barack Obama and foreskin-faced groupie Oprah Winfrey:

I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over.

Will Sarah Palin Shoot Barack Obama?

OBAMA’S not cowed by Sarah Palin: “How is this sissy going to stand up to someone a bit more menacing than Sarah Palin?”

“We’re not going to be bullied, we’re not going to be smeared, we’re not going to be lied about,” Obama said. “I don’t believe in coming in second.”

Says he:

Don’t worry, Princess. You’ll be coming in third, Joe Biden in fourth.

Still, it’s the taking part that counts…

She likes guns, does Palin. Obama’s got a death cult. You don’t think…?

No… No, Noooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
