I feel great.

And I want 500 babies.

Weekend Update

I liked Dennis Miller back during his SNL days, but I've really enjoyed his rightward turn over the last few years. Here he is in an interview with Politico, discussing support for McCain in Hollywood:

It’s broader than you think. Listen, John McCain, by putting his name at the other end of a hyphen from Russ Feingold, has at least tried to reach across the aisle. Barack Obama is located nowhere near the end of the aisle — he’s way far out on the left. He makes Bernie Sanders look like Curtis LeMay. So I think this time around, at least, it’s much more easier to come out as a conservative or a moderate or at least pragmatic because otherwise the guy you’d have to vote for has the most liberal voting record in the Senate. And some people aren’t for that right now. He’s a 47-year-old nice enough guy who is reflexively liberal and wants to get Chatty Cathy with bad guys.

Like the man says, heh. Indeed. Read the whole thing.

It's funny because it's true

I've believed for a long time that Jim Treacher is the funniest man on Teh Internets. Check out, for example, his John Edwards jokes. A sample:

Knock knock.
Who's there?
Rielle.
Rielle who?
You must get all your information from TV and newspapers!

The only way I can explain the fact that he isn't getting paid to write gags for teevee or the movies is that he must have a soul.

You know, I like this idea so much that I had it twelve days ago.

Obama Names Favre VP Candidate

Barack Obama today surprised reporters by announcing that his running mate will be formerly-retired field general Brett Favre. The move was endorsed by the Green Bay Packers, Favre's current employer, who said they felt he could do more good on a national stage instead of trapped in a frozen wasteland.

 

"I said that I wanted a vice presidential candidate who had military experience, sound judgment, and impeccable character," said Obama. "In Favre, I get a field general that has proven he can win the big one and whose experience will provide a steady hand in my administration. And I also know that Brett won't be afraid to disagree with me, as he's disagreed with coaches and logic so many times in the past to make risky throws on the field. Sometimes even successfully!"

 

Obama also said that Favre now makes their campaign more competitive. "Favre, with his Mississippi drawl and resemblance to dollar-bill presidents, will help make our campaign more appealing to those voters who so far have resisted the Obama Glamour: buck-toothed hillbillies, gun-toting bible thumpers, and trailer park trash."

 

Observers hailed the move as “sheer genius”, with Political Analyst Keith Olbermann calling it "daring in the Obamic style that we have all come to marvel at" and Peter King dubbed it his "ultimate wet dream ticket.”

 

Not all Democrats were pleased, however. Geraldine Ferraro, former Clinton campaign staffer, complained that "this move just proves that Obama is a misogynistic ageist who ought to borrow Alfalfa's 'Woman Hater's Club' sign to hang out front of INVESCO Field. Their new campaign motto is 'One Penis, One Vote' for all the respect they give women."

Where Jeff Foxworthy and Barack Obama collide

Peter Kirsanow over at The Corner has a list of 25 Obama-themed "You might be a racist if..." jokes.  My faves:

5. If you think "Vero Possemus" is Latin for "Massive Ego" you... may be a racist.
6. If you wonder why Obama was hanging around William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn you...may be a racist.
 
[...]
 
15. If you  think "we are the change we've been waiting for" is a line from a Monty Python skit you...may be a racist.

 
Heh.  Ill add my own: If you think that most of the jokes he made are pretty tame you...might be a racist.

McCain campaign starting to campaign a little smarter

Volunteers for the McCain campaign will be handing out tire gauges marked with "Obama's Energy Plan" at an Obama event in Michigan, and to some of the media.  See, this little stunt and The One ad are how you do it.  Obama is such a self-absorbed sanctimonious twat, his supporters so zealous and humorless, that the answer to them is obviously mockery. 

Beyond that, McCain needs something to excite at least a little of the base and activists, and mockery of the Messiah may be it. It obviously isn't going to be Maverick's personality or policy.  It may as well be laughing at Our Lord and Savior and the prospect of watching the nutroots completely lose their shit should we of the VRWC, Diebold, Rove, Cheney and the Republicans steal another election.  If the McCain campaign keeps this up, I might become convinced he actually wants to win this election.  I'm beginning to see some tiny signs of competence, in campaigning anyway.

NOW I Know Why Certain Movies Generate More Buzz Than Other Movies

I get the feeling the people who were changing the movie titles on this marquee wish they had been a bit quicker.



Folks, this is why the latest Batman movie is doing so well.
