I don't like it!!!

HA!

So really what sells this ad is the sheer NUMBER of magazines.

Bah, as if some kid now days would be hiding magazines under his bed. They have the internets for FREE!!!

Quote of the weeekend:
"I totally got yellow fever in my ass."

Obama, the new Roosevelt?

Time for some cozy Youtube Fireside Chats!




Franklin Delano Roosevelt had his fireside chats, Richard Nixon had hours and hours of taped administration discussions, and George W. Bush domestic spying initiatives. Every president has his own way of introducing his own concept of transparency into the White House.

But only Barack Obama's will be going head to head with the newest Katy Perry video...

President-elect Obama's office gave the media a new way to present him as Franklin Roosevelt 2.0 by announcing Friday that it will be posting weekly addresses -- fireside chats for the web generation - on YouTube.

The first address will appear on Change.gov this Saturday, after it airs in audio. An Obama spokesperson says that this innovation is just the beginning of the digital, transparent presidency.

Renegade!

So Obama's new codename is RENEGADE? 2 things:

1) Is there anything he does that doesn't make him look hip and cool compared to the existing administration?

2) Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of having super-secret-code-names if MSNBC puts them all over the internets? :)

From the indecision 08 blog:

Barack Obama -- a guy who's totally not even the sitting President of the United States -- held a press conference in Chicago today to discuss his response to the nation's failing economy, like he thinks he's all hot shit and stuff...

"I do not underestimate the enormity of the task that lies ahead," Mr. Obama said at his first news conference since his victory over Senator John McCain on Tuesday. He said he was certain that "some difficult choices" will have to be made.

"It's not going to be quick, and it's not going to be easy to dig ourselves out of the hole that we're in," Mr. Obama said.

And not once during his speech did he make an inappropriate remark about sex, race or physical deformities of any of the dozens of reporters in attendance. Not even Candy Crowley. In fact, he even went so far as conduct himself with decorum and an air of studied intelligence and restraint. Because, I guess he's all cool like that, ya know. Jeeze.

Oh, and get a load of this. He was standing before a large group of financial advisors, drawn from a pool of the most competent and accomplished economic and political experts in the nation. What a bunch of shit!

I guess this is what you can look forward to for the next four years, America. Get used to it.

See? Obama is already bringing change!

Thank goodness for instant change. If only this was real.
