Political Poop '08

Ashley Todd, the girl who told people she had been assaulted for being a McCain supporter has come clean. Her original claim was that she as attacked by a big black man who carved a “B” for Barack into her face and hit her in the eye. When photographed she indeed had a black eye and a “B” on her face…one thing though, the “B “was backwards.
Well a day later she came forward to police and told them she maid the whole thing up and that her injuries were self inflicted. Source
Backwards “B”…priceless.

More Poop…
Republican cheerleader and View Host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is campaigning with Sarah Palin this weekend.
She says, “Gov. Palin asked me to be with her this Sunday to introduce her at the rallies in Florida. I am more than honored to be there. I’ll have some stories, I’m sure, on Monday.” Source
No thanks Liz…keep your stories to yourself.

Last Poop Pebble… SNL alum Maya Rudolph is set to play Michelle Obama on the show. Executive producer Lorne Michaels told reporters he was anxious for Maya's return based on the success of the previous alums like Tina Fey this season. She was supposed to be Michelle in the premier of the show, starring next to the real Barack Obama. But he had to cancel in light of Hurricane Ike. Source
I’ll be watching for you Maya! If her impression of Michelle is as spot on as her impression of Donatella Versace then she’s going to blow us away.

Sidenote: Random bit of trivia…Maya is the daughter of singer Minnie Ripperton who sang “Loving You”


Update:
I just saw the skit…she didn’t blow me away. But I did enjoy the “Solid as Barack” song.

IF YOU PLAN ON VOTING FOR OBAMA DON’T WEAR ANY OBAMA APPAREL TO THE VOTING POLLS. THIS INCLUDES HATS, T-SHIRTS, PINS, ETC. THIS IS CONSIDERED CAMPAIGNING AND CAMPAIGNING IS NOT ALLOWED AT THE POLLS. ONCE FOLKS HAVE TO GO HOME TO CHANGE THEY’RE LESS LIKELY TO COME BACK OUT TO VOTE.
SO YES, YOU’RE CATSUIT WITH OBAMA AIRBRUSH ACROSS YOUR CHEEKS IS REALLY CUTE BUT PUT IT ON AFTER YOU VOTE. UM KAY?
