Daily Show Mocks Gay Marriage Ban or Chickens?

2008-11-10T16:59:36Z

When California voters eliminated the right of same sex couples to get married last week, it led to an immediate legal challenge from the ACLU of Northern California and some ironic commentary from Jon Stewart on the Daily Show, both of which I discuss in this video.

You can find the entire Daily Show segment from which I took a short clip for my video at www.thedailyshow.com

Why John McCain Lost: The Great McCain Wall of Shame

2008-11-09T19:44:18Z

WHY JOHN McCAIN LOST! ...

With sincere condolences to the honorable
Senator John Sidney McCain II
We all hope you will enjoy a well deserved retirement.

A great man, and historic hero, who deserved better than the trash that surrounded him. If it was ten years ago, with a more reputable campaign team, and a running mate that HE actually chose, he would have had a great shot.

Sarah Louise Heath Palin, whatever the fuck you are,
... you can just suck my ass.
Don't worry, she will get a talk show with Fox News
... I'm sure of it.

(Please click the "watch in high quality" link under the video.)

NOTE: The ignorant comments displayed below are the reason McCain lost the presidential race. Any and all grammatical errors are their own.

re: Hoax - McCain Volunteer Created Race Baiting Attack Story

2008-11-19T02:46:55Z

This is another example of racism within the McCain Campaign. John McCain's attacks on Obama as Un-American are provoking people to inject racism in this campaign.

Police say a campaign volunteer confessed to making up a story that a mugger attacked her and cut the letter B in her face after seeing her McCain bumper sticker.

Pittsburgh police said a 20-year-old woman who originally said she was robbed and assaulted at knifepoint in Bloomfield because of her political views made the story up.

Ashley Todd -- who has a backward letter "B" scratched into her right cheek -- confessed to faking the story and will be charged with filing a false report, Assistant Police Chief Maurita Bryant said at a news conference Friday.

Todd, of College Station, Texas, admitted there was no robbery or attacker and said she had prior mental health problems, according to Bryant.

It's not yet clear whether Todd's face was mutilated by her, or if she had somebody else do it, because a police report states that she told them she can't remember.

Todd said she was driving around in her car, looked in her rear-view mirror, saw a "B," and the first thing she thought of was Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama.
Police tell KDKA that a campaign volunteer has now confessed to making up a story that a mugger attacked her and cut the letter B in her face after seeing her John McCain bumper sticker. Ashley Todd, 20, of Texas, initially told police that she was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield and that the suspect became enraged and started beating her after seeing her GOP sticker on her car. Police investigating the alleged attack, however, began to notice some inconsistencies in her story and administered a polygraph test.

The student, Ashley Todd, of College Station, Texas, initially said a black man robbed her at knifepoint Wednesday night and then cut her cheek after seeing a McCain sticker on her car.

Police say bank surveillance footage doesn't show her at an ATM where she says she was attacked.

Todd, who is white, now says she was knocked unconscious and doesn't remember being cut. She now says she only discovered the wound later.
