Bill Clinton: Screw It, I'm Running For President

From the Onion:

"My fellow Americans, I am sick and tired of not being president," said Clinton, introducing his wife at a "Hillary '08" rally. "For seven agonizing years, I have sat idly by as others experienced the joys of campaigning, debating, and interacting with the people of this great nation, and I simply cannot take it anymore. I have to be president again. I have to."

In a show of respect, Clinton then completed his introduction of Hillary Clinton, calling her a "wonderful wife and worthy political adversary," and warmly shook her hand as she approached the podium. A clearly shocked Mrs. Clinton got halfway through her speech about the nation's obligation to its children before walking briskly offstage.

The whole thing is Onion quality and hits the right tone as far a political reporting goes. Good for a chuckle.

Instead of watching the Democratic debate I thought I'd put random stuff I've found on the web.



I originally found this on Tammy Bruce's Blog and it made its way to Gorillamask:

Men who look like old lesbians!



Phil Spector is candidate number one, but Roy Orbison and Eddie Money also make the cut. If you go through their archives you'll find other not so flattering pictures of everyone from Newt Gingrich, to Imus, to Al Pacino.


Gorillamask also linked to a clip from Best Week Ever that shows Bear Grylls hollowing out a camel ala Luke Skywalker and crawling inside:



Finally, the crew at the Onion talk about how to raise awareness among the people of Darfur to let them know how much we are doing for them:

No comment, other than it's funny because it hits pretty close to home. From the Onion
