One of the greatest narrators we’ve ever encountered, Morgan Freeman, has provided his talent to an Obama campaign ad airing today. And Freeman isn’t just talking about it, he’s also put his money where his mouth is and in July donated a cool million bucks to Obama’s Super Pac. Continue reading

We’ve apparently reached the part of the 2012 election where all the racist assheads emerge from the shadows in full bigoted regalia.
While not surprising, it does just make us….well, what? What does this particular demonstration make us feel? This may seem like an easy question, but maybe it isn’t so easy. Is it enraging? Sure. But by this point it’s also so cliché and mundane that it’s almost like expecting the jerk after the tap on the knee. It’s not that we thought these folks went anywhere after the 2008 election. No, of course not. Due to the Tea Party, which has been noticeably absent during much of the 2012 campaign, we saw the many, many, racist signs and slogans and t-shirts and whatever the first time around. So, where has this guy been? Continue reading
Nic Cage is just making shit up now; Tyra Banks’ head has TV plans; Ryan Reynolds to get serious…again; OPRAH SQUEEEEEEEE; the USA network knows what we like; Peter Berg tells Mitt Romney to “Step Off”; Dane Cook needs a new job…always; and a new teaser trailer for NBC’s Mockingbird Lane! Oh, Eddie Izzard. Continue reading
Oh, ho. That was fast. Well, we knew it was coming. You don’t have the kind of smackdown that happened last night and don’t capitalize on it. In this brand spanking new ad, the Obama campaign pretty much sums up what many of us saw last night from Paul Ryan — a lot of zeal — but not a lot of answers. Continue reading
Well, if this little girl doesn’t have a job waiting for her as a therapist, well, we just don’t know what. This will probably be the best thing you’ll see all day. And really, and truly, someone should pay her for her services. It’s not every day a grade schooler can break down the societal outcomes of the playground which just naturally is an allegory for most of the pivotal moments of our entire lives. “You need to toughen up a bit” should be written in gold somewhere. (And Paul Ryan should wear it today just because.) Continue reading
Did you ever think it would come down to Joe Biden? For a second time, the Vice Presidential debates featuring Joe Biden is sure to be one of the most watched Vice Presidential debates in history. And this time instead of a silly governor from Alaska, Biden is up against a workout enthusiast, marathon-lying, interview question-evading wonk from the Beltway. That’s okay. We’re ready. Here are a few things we want Joe to be aware of though. Continue reading
Debate bounce schmounce. All this guy needs to ever do is start talking and let his real feelings out about how he sees the poor. And isn’t that really what this whole thing is all about? Who will best work for and empathize with all of America? Well, as Romney sees it, people don’t have to worry about dying from a lack of health insurance — somebody will treat you and pick up the tab. Continue reading
Well, that took no time at all. We asked for it, and we got it. Paul Ryan’s douchiest ever pics showcasing him in full blown backwards hat-punchable face regalia have left a comic stain on the Internet that will haunt him forever. Hopefully. Continue reading
Now that we can hopefully move on from Mitt Romney’s explosively devoid of truth debate performance where he conjured a look-a-like hopped up on aggressive position-shifting jujubes to great success, let’s all continue to focus on what has become the new face of the man. That face is still carved in an Etch-A-Sketch. The latest showing, his miraculous new position on abortion he laid out late Tuesday. Are we still going to call this a success? Continue reading
Do you know what happened yesterday? No? Jennifer Aniston purchased received the biggest engagement ring anyone has ever seen. No, seriously, that thing was bigger than a Pillsbury biscuit on her next-to-FU finger. Sure. Haha. No one cares about Jennifer Aniston’s diabolical plot to in-yer-face get married before Brad and Angelina. What we cared about in droves was the recent poll numbers that showed Barack Obama IS FARGING LOSING THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE! Foiled again, Aniston. Continue reading
