Underdog Obama Victorious in Mr. Socialist Pageant

HONOLULU (AP) – In a hard-fought battle where he was, at one point, a 2-to-1 underdog, President-Elect Obama ending up beating Vladimir Putin to claim the crown in the Mr. Socialist Pageant.

Obama wins the man-boob match-up

“Things looked grimmest for Obama during the eveningwear competition,” said Matt Drudge, the pageant co-ordinator. “Put him in a [...]

Who Says There’s No Good News?

Got this from MorOn.org and just had to share my schadenfreude:
You’ve probably heard about how Wall Street financier Bernard Madoff scammed investors out of at least $50 billion.
But you may not have heard that his victims included the foundations that support some really important progressive organizations. Groups that fight for human rights, fair elections and [...]

10 Words or Less

As commenter Percepied pointed out, the Washington post is selling $10 classified ads for readers to post an inaugural message for Obama.
The catch being that “All ads must be congratulatory in nature.”
