| | Security!! BHO I'll Take Black People That White People Like for $500 Alex So all day today, the Web is just f'ing on fire with the news of Barack Obama's presidential announcement. No really, en fuego. If the internet was gay, it would be flaming. If it were a vagina, it would be Lindsay Lohan's. But of course being the desperate housewife I am, I check Oprah.com on his scheduled interview. Yes, I'm a regular frequenter of Oprah.com, so what? Screw you for judging me. Did you that 80% of women aren't wearing the correct size bra? Do you know about Darfur? Yeah well then, suck it. Anywho, what do I get for tomorrow's episode? TBA
Honestly, the only time it does that is when serious isht is about to hit the fan. Announcing a presidential run on Oprah? Or rather, his first scheduled interview after announcing would be a softball interview with the black Mother Theresa with a mic. That's bad a*s. The reaction from a wise GOP consultant (not Obi Wan; I have to get this other guy to decide on his nickname) was, "Announcing on Oprah could be potentially very smart... I'm glad she's also from Illinois, because that means she can’t be his running mate... Christopher Dodd goes on Imus and announces his candidacy, Obama goes on Oprah. I know which show I'd rather have my candidate make his announcement."
I didn't even think about the Oprah for veep angle. Good point. So of course, I go to Google up some stuff on Obama. You know ... checking to see if he beats little, cute white kids on the side or worse, on the DL and I see that some how Hilary Rodham Clinton has two links on the first page. And it's not even blogs or random Hilary/Obama fanfic. And as Barack entered her oval office ...
It's her official Senate site. And both links have nary one link or text about Obama. How is that possible? Besides, the fact that Hilary's a witch (burn her!) Ladies and gentlemen, the game is afoot! Oh poop! One more thing, from the same, right-leaning site ... What words are missing from Obama's statement A) Bush B) Republican C) Democrat D) All of the Above
If you guessed D, then you read the answer and you're a big cheat. But D is correct. Obama isn't running against Republicans; he's running against partisanship itself.
---- Sorry this post is completely off-the-cuff [ed. note - what else is new?] and somewhat giddy. No lie, I am looking forward to the next few years in news practically salivating. Even your mom's apple pie doesn't get me as wet. Next thing you know we'll have a gay presidential candidate -- and then it's on. |
