Political Poop '08

At a taping Friday night of “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” Conan asked John McCain for some new material. He said, “We all agree on a take on you, which is your seniority,” as McCain, 71, pretended to fall asleep in his chair. “We’re (comedians) tired of this take on you. Do you have a kooky uncle, do you have bad breath, webbed toes, anything?”
McCain replied, “All of the above.” He added, “I was able to get shot down, intercept a surface-to-air missile with my plane.”
“People don’t really laugh at that,” O’Brien pointed out. Source
No, Conan, it’s not funny. Which is part of the reason I find it so hard to write ANYTHING about McCain. Who cares about his views on off shore drilling? Not me! I need him to vomit on some foreign dignitaries, fall off a stage or get drunk on a plane and pee on the food cart…or better yet on the flight attendant. Work with me McCain! Jeez! Onto a Little Obama Poolooza!

On Friday’s Morning Joe Dan Rather was talking about Jesse Jackson’s comments about Barack Obama when he said this,
“With Jesse Jackson…I have a great respect for Jesse Jackson, that he was an important figure in paving the way for an Osama bin Laden to appear. But this is one of those things, I think, by the time we get to the conventions no one’s going to remember it. It doesn’t count for very much.”
Did you catch that? Yea, he just called Barack Obama, Osama Bin Laden. Watch the video…no one noticed! Or at least they acted like they didn’t. Christ. SMH.

More Poop… Bill Clinton told reporters that he’s eager to campaign for his wife's former rival Barack Obama. He said that he’s willing to do it whenever Obama asks. You can view more of his statement in the video below:

I find it funny that Bill seems more willing to campaign for Barack than he was for his own wife, but whatevs. Source and Source
