Al Gore A Sense of Humor and an Oscar???

So Al Gore can't exactly win a Presidency but apparently he can win an Oscar and has a sense of humor. On the Wonkette.com they have a blurb entitled "Al Gore Wins Oscar, Promptly Agrees to Star in 'Snow Dogs 2: An Inconvenient Pooch.'" Heres a clip of him at the Oscars looking studly next to Leo...oh and he's actually kind of funny...

While the rumors of Gore taking another stab at becoming President don't appear to be true, it would be quite interesting to see what the impact of his movie making would be on his campaign. Perhaps it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing to have a President that was fully aware and brought attention to the matter of global warming. I don't exactly want to be living underwater in a few years.

Other interesting fact from the Wonkette.com: According to the Sunday's Washington Post Al Gore has been our coolest Ex-Vice President ever. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/24/AR2007022401586.html

According to Fox...

Today on the Wonkette.com there was an entry about Fox New's constantly updated list of "Fallen Heroes" i.e. Americans who have died in Iraq. According to the list there hasn't been an American death in Iraq since December 31st. That's pretty impressive since the number of American deaths since the war began is over 2,500 and 821 in the past year.

When you put that number in relation to people you know it sure as hell is a lot. Hopefully the number will stay low for the oncoming year while the government tries to actually decide on a plan of action...

Grey's Gab Gallery

When asked to check out a forum I decided since it is Thursday and I've been in suspense all week I might as well check out a forum on Grey's Anatomy.

The forum off of televisionwithoutpity.com has frustrated me in a number of ways. First off, when talking about speculation for upcoming episodes they are all discussing a main character being killed off- which as of now is looking like Mer since she is in an afterlife scene with the Bomb guy, and Denny. However, it's obvious the death can't be Meredith because- she's "Grey" and it is well, "Grey's Anatomy" which I know is a total play on the real Gray's Anatomy but still that's way too drastic for the show. Look at what happened when The OC killed off Misha Barton aka- "Coop"- the show most definitely died with her.

The people of the forum are looking towards Izzy to die which- excuse me- is not happening I've really started to like Izzy and she just got out of her only watching as an intern experience. She's finally back in action and they are going to kill her? No Way

"Shonda has a habit of making us swing from loving to hating a character and back again. Izzy has been quite unlikable lately. How quickly would people's attitudes turn around if suddenly she was dead. An added benefit to this scenario would be the guilt that Bailey would have for selecting Izzy over Cristina to be the fifth person on the ambulance. Not to mention the clinic that would be left behind as a constant reminder of her time at Seattle Grace."

How dare they say Izzy has been quite "unlikeable" what show have you been watching because I'm pretty sure the girl just drilled 5 holes in some guys head with a drill and saved his life- unlikeable- more like unbelievable.

The other thing I have to attack these "Grey's Gossip" people on is their hate of McDreamy. One- how could you hate those amazing blue eyes and two- HOW COULD YOU HATE THOSE AMAZING BLUE EYES??

"My friend and I were talking and, as much as we would loathe this, as we are Team Addison Away From McDouche, we just have this... feeling that Addison and Derek are gonna hit the sheets again. We don't know when or why but we can both see it happening. ::ducks::"

"Eeew no!!! Anything but that. I'd even listen to Izzie pontificating for a month just as long as they don't bring McAsshat anywhere near Addy. No no no, it can't be... *Excuse me, in my horror I feel I need to barf*"

McDouche and McAsshat? I think not- He will forever be McDreamy to me.
Also I forsee Addison and Alex getting together- not a reunion of the divorsees.

MySpace...a Political Rally?

Recently on the Wonkette.com there was a post about the amount of friends the future Presidential candidates have on Myspace.

I have to say their description of Myspace does seem quite adequate...

MySpace is a wonderful social networking phenomenon in which millions of retarded people regular Americans have their own atrocious blinking-ad-covered websites, each visually horrific “home page” bleating out some awful pop music and tagged with the illiterate gibberish comments (or cut-and-pasted rap lyrics) and half-naked cam-phone pictures of America’s fattest teens. It’s a place where born-again illiterate Jesus freaks, tattooed and pierced illiterate suburban kids, fake gangsta illiterate urban youth, orange-skinned horse-faced illiterate high-school dropout gals who aspire to celebrity sluthood or a career in the Army, violent illiterate psychopathic “Juggalos” and a bedeviled minority of depressed semi-literate goth & emo teens in the Midwest all come together to show us what the United States will be like once the current crop of old people dies off.

It's also quite humorous to wonder if they are right about Presidential Races being decided on myspace, however..

If the Wonkette is correct and the next Presidential election will be held on a count of how many MySpace friends one has...I don't think any of the Political Elite will win...

It's no surprise who our next President would be...

Let's Stop Mowin their Damn Lawn Already!

Top Story on Wonkette.com (I'd make a link but my computer hates me and won't give me that button on the blog) is
"Iraq Keeps Shooting Us, We'll Stop Mowing Their Lawn: Great Moments in House Rhetoric"

This article comments on a beautiful analogy made by Florida Republican Ric Keller who was infact speaking in the favor of the Democratic Iraq withdrawl plan.

"Let me give you an analogy. Imagine your next door neighbor refuses to mow his lawn and the weeds are all the way up to his waist. You decide you’re going to mow his lawn for him every single week. The neighbor never says thank you. He hates you and sometimes he takes out a gun and shoots at you.

Under these circumstances, do you keep mowing his lawn forever? Do you send even more of your family members over to mow his lawn? Or do you say to that neighbor, ‘You better step it up and mow your own lawn or there’s going to be serious consequences for you’?"

While this analogy obviously has a few kinks in it he actually does have a point. But what kind of "serious consequences" does he have in mind?

The Today Show has the Giggles!

So by now we all know how Tim Hardaway, the former NBA player feels about gays. But look how well the professionals on the Today Show handled their news delivery of the story...

Wow, so maybe I'll start watching the Today Show a little more!

Political Gossip-Wonkette.com

I was exploring the very popular, well established, and gossip gallery of D.C. blog, The Wonkette and I came across this hilarious entry about the dumb things rich snobby people say.

My favorite has to be the one who thinks she's being asked about "a rack" as in "titties" instead of what is going on in Iraq. What a trip!

Along with comical relief to governmental issues, the Wonkette is still very informative in its own satire-filled way. For example check out this entry done about a terrorist siting in Pheonix. Watch our for those superheros let me tell you!

This site is really good at poking fun at our nations capital and the people that reside within it.

I'm definitely adding the Wonkette to my bookmarking list!
