Father of Bristol Palin’s Baby Goes Public

Hey! I didn’t say BABYDADDY. Oop, there it is…

Why do McCain campaigns always have black baby rumours attached to them? If you haven’t seen it, check out the video at left, in which a young man named Kevin claims to be Bristol Palin’s baby’s father (please note my professional restraint in avoiding the term “babydaddy”). In spite of the fact that this may very well be a hoax, it’s worth watching for several reasons: 1.) Unmitigated tabloid entertainment value. 2.) An audition tape. If this guy’s lying, he deserves a shot at a real acting career. 3.) It’s Sunday morning, and Meet The Press sucks since Tim Russert passed away. 4.) I’m violating my unwritten policy of not using the word “Palin” unless referring to Michael, so you could at least have the decency to watch things I recommend. 5.) The dude says he’s voting for Obama.

What If WhatsHisName Wins?

This is all moot if the press would shut up about what’s-her-name

In case you’ve forgotten, these are the
two viable candidates this year. There are
others
, but they can’t get face time on
Fox, so who gives a crap, right mate?

If the corporate media doesn’t eventually STFU (that link’s NSFW, BTW) about John McCain’s pick for VP, and if enough Americans once again line up like lemmings to vote for the person with whom they’d be most comfortable having a barbeque at the trailer park, some of us may want to be seeking citizenship elsewhere. Fortunately, there are lots of resources on the web. Even a fluff site like AskMen.com offers up a piece called Fine Living Top 10: Dual-Citizenship Countries. Apparently though, things aren’t as simple as the old Jus soli and Jus sanguinis. For instance, head over to extrapassport.com, where they advise: “Before you PAY anybody to provide you with a new citizenship, check if the procedure described by your provider is listed in our Handbook”. Which ironically costs USD $63.99. But wait, they have better deals; for a mere USD24.95 you can download the Estonia Residency & Citizenship Handbook. Barring a major Russian offensive, Estonia is apparently shaping up to be quite a nice new member of the EU. If you don’t feel like giving your credit card number to strange web sites that probably operate on former U.K. gunnery posts in the Atlantic, check out MultipleCitizenship.com’s Citizenship Laws of the World, which was prepared by the US government Office of Personnel Management in 2001, which I guess was the last time a bunch of us were suddenly thinking of renouncing our citizenship. Lastly, if you’re hemmorrhaging cash, why not buy an island ? As an example, this little baby (8 acres) is only CAD $250,000…

What’s The Difference Between A Prostitute And A Politician?

The one that delivers what they promise goes to jail

Cicciolina, One Of The
Few To Succeed As Both

Oh, make up your own punchline. Do we really care what a bunch of narcissistic Democrats have to say to each other when they get together every four years? If so, here’s a good source. Personally, I’m more interested in things like ABC News making a big fuss about the sex trade spiking in towns when political conventions arrive. They’ve obviously never heard the one about the Senator telling the intern to leave him alone, “…because he had a hundred pages to get through before lunch…”. In any case, although advocacy groups (no, they’re not for it, they’re against it) agree with ABC’s assessment, cops in both cities say not likely. And they should know, because they’re the ones hanging out in parks where all the real tricks are getting turned. Like the former co-chair of John McCain’s presidential campaign in Florida, Bob Allen, who like the cops, is often busy denying things. No, the real fun for politicians at convention time is in skirting ethics laws that might prevent them from having awesome parties, or in whoring THEMSELVES out to special interest lobbies like the RIAA or ATT.

Will Obama Need a Dick Tuck?

Or Am I Making A Mountain Out Of A Mole?

While a lot of people, specifically liberals, feel comfortable that Barack Obama’s smooth, articulate style will help him win against the stodgy, brain-fart-laden mannerisms of John McCain, let’s not forget America’s recent political history. Richard Nixon’s presidency will forever be a reminder that even a surly, humorless, sweaty-lipped used car salesman can run for president and win. Even when a legendary prankster like Dick Tuck is working against him. I say legendary, even though I’d never heard of him until yesterday. If anyone out there can find a photo of Mr. Tuck, I’d like to see it. The only image I could find (at left) is from the museumofhoaxes.com site. By the way, I STRONGLY discourage doing a Google Image Search for “Dick Tuck”.
