Oh (Half) Brother! Where Art Thou Tokin’?

In the great American political tradition of embarassing brothers like Roger Clinton, Aloeicius P. Taft, and well, George W. Bush, we only had to wait ten days to get this administration’s installment. And boy, oh, boy was it reach for a slow newsday. Seems Obama’s half-brother George has been arrested on Marijuana possession charges.  Oh, [...]

The Day in Obama – Day 11

The P. Diddy signed executive orders to help the few employed workers remaining in America, in particular those that still belong to unions. Yes, we still have those. They’ve been somewhere in the corner of our closet for the past decade. He also called China’s Hu Jintao to talk about currency, but became so god-awfully [...]

The Day in Obama – Day 10

The power, oh, the glorious power. #44 got his first real taste of Presidential power Thursday (Ok, except for blowing up all that stuff in Pakistan last week) by signing his first bill into law. He also made a big to-do about Wall Street executives that get big bonuses for selling imaginary products that are [...]

Bye Bye, Blago – We Barely Knew You…

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ojvVcFOkOE&eurl=http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=impeached&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-aiurl=http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/8ojvVcFOkOE/hqdefault.jpg&feature=player_embedded] But, apparently we knew enough. So much for the political power of The View. Enjoy your six-figure salary at some shady consulting firm, followed by the seven-figure book deal.  Well, as soon as that minor affair of a trial on federal charges is all over with, that is.  Dick. -Eric Mack More at Wonkette

Obama to Ahmadinejad: I Will Charm All the Crazy Right Out of You

Flickr: Hamed Saber Leadership in Iran and D.C. are currently caught in the middle of shooting a sequel to the ’80s arm-wrestling Stallone classic Over the Top. Ok, maybe this version is a little more eloquent and less sweaty, but Sly needs every plug he can get these days. Obama, in his interview with an [...]

The Day in Obama: Day 9

Flickr: diongillard The commander-in-chief gets both his stimulus and his drink on after completing his first full week in office – Obama’s stimulus package passed the House in the afternoon, and the President invited Congressional leaders for cocktails at the White House. The Secret Service has been instructed to keep Nancy Pelosi away from the [...]

Big Boy Blago Comes Home

Flickr: Goodbye Hug Originally uploaded by JOE M500 I’ve licked frozen metal poles, I’ve consumed many cold beverages, I’ve had plenty of face washes (that’s Canadian for someone rubbing snow in your face), but never have I felt my brain lock up the way it did a few minutes ago. I just saw that our [...]

The Day in Obama: Day 8

Today, the one who would be all things to all people spoke directly to two groups of people that we think might be completely free of any overlap – the Muslim World and Republicans.

Consumer Confidence Totally, like, Hits an All-Time Low

Yes, it’s that bad boys and girls. Consumer confidence reached an all time low today. Sure, we had all seen it coming for months with the housing crisis, credit crunch, unemployment, but then today, just after lunch hour, came the crushing blow.

The Day in Obama – Day 7

And on the seventh day… he remade the auto industry, and watched America’s #1 negligent taxpayer officially take over the treasury. Fortunately, there’s little left in it to neglect.
