Gordon Brown’s Party Tips For An Alterantive Edinburgh

Gordon Brown says bring a brick to party.

From an ebay listing for Brown’s ‘Alternative Edinburgh’, penned by Gordon Brown in the early seventies:

“This book was edited by Gordon Brown when he was a student in the 1970s at Edinburgh University. It is entitled Alternative Edinburgh and was penned at the time when Brown was a socialist student leader – it is full of suggestions of how to live in Edinburgh for next to nothing!…my favourite one is how to turn up at a party without bringing a bottle with you – so what do you do… you bring a carrier bag of empty cans and put two half-bricks in the bottom of it to weight it down“.

The Plot To Kill Gordon Brown, Aka Gordan Brown

FIVE people have been arrested in alleged plot to kill Gordon Brown, or..:

The message, written in English, allegedly included a threat to target “all the political leaders, especially Tony Blair and Gordan (sic) Brown”.

A damning indiuctment of our education system, and a pretty shoddy showing for Gordon Brown, who after an entire year in power is known among alleged extremists as “Gordan”. Are all, alleged, jihadis thick?

ARE you ready for “JACQUI SMITH’S SECRET POLICE”?

While the potty Home Secretary keeps you distracted with her kebab and embonpoint, her police force is hard at it.

Ethan Persoff’s Bush-McCain Tijuana Bible O’ Porn

200808261509.jpg

 

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.

Council Bans The Man In The Street, Mr, Mrs And Laydees

A DIRECTIVE to members and staff of Chichester District Council, West Sussex, instructs them to resist and desist form using the phrase “the man in the street”.

The phrase is deemed “inherently sexist, not a fair reflection of reality, and makes the views or work of women invisible”. Quite so. Staff are instructed to use “a positive alternative” such as “the general public”.

Anorak imagines that the phrase rankles with the missive’s writer, and like all pet hates it is irrational.

IT’S The Barack Obama Death Cult. It’s the fear that grips us all…

THE plot to kill Barack Obama – the Barack Obama Death Cult – sees three more persons held by police.

At least that’s what the Sun says on its front page. It’s the “plot to kill Obama,” says the Express on its cover.

There were four people, which means either one is on the loose, or else has been adopted by Russian agents/ the Far Right/ the CIA/ the Mafia/ The Taliban/ Hillary Clinton/ Joe Biden fans to kill Obama at a later date.

The Recurring Nightmare Of Barack Obama’s Death

IT’S The Barack Obama Death Cult. It’s the fear that grips us all…

In “Target Obama: An American nightmare”, Ian Munro tells The age and its reader how Barack Obama must die:

IT IS a recurring American nightmare, a fear that haunts a nation and that has stalked every presidential candidate since the Kennedys.

Or the Lincolns. An not just the presidents, but all the candidates too. Anyone try to kill Ralph Nader? H. Ross Perot? Walter Mondale? And if not, why not? What’s their secret? And should Barack Obama model himself on Mondale?

Three And Four Barack Obama Death Cult Members Arrested In Denver

IT’S The Barack Obama Death Cult. Arrests made in Denver.

MICHELLE Obama is telling Times readers about “our all-American story”. And Sky news screams: “Obama ‘Assassination arrests.”

What’s more American than a dead President?

To the Democrat Party’s convention in Denver, and local police have confirmed three men are being held in connection with drugs and weapons offences.

They were going to kill Obama, right? They are a cell of the Obama Death Cult and they were intending to do their worst, right?

Over in the Sun, Sky’s sister organ, the news is a little less certain:

Remembering Ken Livingstone On CBeebies

BORIS Johnson, mayor of London, waves the flag in Beijing. And Ken Livingstone, the miserabilist former mayor Boris beat.. Is he bitter?

Says the Independent:

A fecund father of five himself, he will next day be appearing on CBeebies. “It’s about how to run a campaign about saving water. I’ve got to advise and then judge which team is the best, which I will hate.”

Happy days. We just can’t stop winning…

Obamania: Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope

OBAMANIA Watch – Anorak’s look at Barack Obama in the news…

HAVE you read Barack Obama: “Son of Promise, Child of Hope” (Simon & Schuster, 2008)? It’s out of this world:

Ever since Barack Obama was young, Hope has lived inside him. From the beaches of Hawaii to the streets of Chicago, from the jungles of Indonesia to the plains of Kenya, he has held on to Hope. Even as a boy, Barack knew he wasn’t quite like anybody else, but through his journeys he found the ability to listen to Hope and become what he was meant to be: a bridge to bring people together.

Good God. Amen:
