Take a look at the crowd in this video. After McCain gets interrupted during his stump for nuclear weapons by two young protesters chanting “endless war,” the crowd starts chanting “John McCain” and cheering. Sure seems like a lot of grey hair in that crowd. Every McCain supporter there better have a child in the armed services or be in the process of having their child...
WatchSay what you will about Coldplay, but this video is awesome.
And now a trip down Memory Lane.
From the June 28, 2000, edition of the New York Times: Gov. George W. Bush of Texas said today that if he was president, he would bring down gasoline prices through sheer force of personality, by creating enough political good will with oil-producing nations that they would increase their supply of crude.

WatchThis video makes me so mad I could vomit. This is the most barbaric, ill-informed and blatantly offensive piece of trash I have ever seen directed at the sport of hockey. There are a lot of nay-sayers out there regarding fighting in hockey, but it is uneducated, whorish producers like the ones who developed this show that help perpetuate negative stereotypes and put the wrong idea into a...

This just in from the Catholic church:
Believing in and protecting yourself from a potential extraterrestrial invasion? Perfectly acceptable. Believing in public health and encouraging the use of condoms to prevent the spread of life-threatening diseases? A mortal sin.
Kanye West played a show the other night in New York at the Casio G-Shock party and a video has surfaced of a pretty weak freestyle during the performance. I love Kanye. I think he’s doing great things in trying to move hip-hop forward with his production skills and the way he can attract a mainstream audience with his written raps. But ever since I saw him play at the House of Blues in...
WatchTony Romo sang during the 7th inning stretch yesterday. Yahoo Sports seems to think he did a terrible job. I’d say he did it in true Harry Caray fashion. He introduced it like Harry, he held the microphone out like Harry, he didn’t fuck it up like Bernie Mac in 2003, and — as the Cubs were down 4-2 going into the bottom of the 7th — he made the famous plea,...
WatchMaybe I will end up going to law school after all… After watching this video, I spent about an hour poking around CheckpointUSA’s blog. Our rights as citizens are continually being trampled on. The “immigration checkpoint” above was set up 40 miles inside U.S. territory. The days of science fiction are over. We are becoming a police state. Also check out The Identity...
WatchJust when I thought the “My Better is Better Than Your Better” commercial with couldn’t be topped, Nike went ahead and leapt into the stratosphere with this. It’s so perfect set to the Eagles of Death Metal’s “Don’t Speak.” See it here larger.
I didn’t really think I could get much more excited about The Dark Knight. Then I saw the new trailer…
