Paris Hilton, Just Trying To Save the Economy



As we all know by know the world economy is in a deep recession. You know
what we need to get us out this funk? More socialites shopping, obviously. Like
hello! Well, at least, that's how Paris Hilton is defending her latest shopping spree:

American socialite Paris Hilton has declared herself a saviour who shops for
the greater good in tight economic times.


In Sydney to host an exclusive New Year's dance party, the 27-year-old heir
to the Hilton hotel fortune this week drew criticism for spending 5,560
Australian dollars (3,844 US dollars) in a 40-minute shopping spree.


Local charities accused her of callous excess but Hilton Wednesday
defended the splurge.


"I'm in Australia, I think it's important to help out, you know, the economy
out here, everywhere in the world," she told reporters, ahead of her New
Year engagement.


"And what's wrong with doing a little shopping? It's New Year's, I need a
New Year's dress."


Maybe if Caroline Kennedy really wants to serve the people, she should just shop
more.

Reality TV

Ok, I usually don't cover celebrity news here my blog. However,
how dishonest it this:

LOS ANGELES – Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag don't appear to be
any closer to getting legally hitched.


A brief tease for the fourth season finale of MTV's "The Hills" that
aired Monday seemed to indicate that the reality TV couple have
made their unofficial Mexican wedding ceremony a legitimate marriage
in California. The pair were shown walking into a courtroom with
Pratt's sister, Stephanie Pratt, while a judge smiled down on them from
the bench.


"I, Heidi, take thee, Spencer," Montag coos in the preview.


Despite all the official trappings, the tease of legitimate nuptials for the
pair may be just that. A Los Angeles Superior Court official said Tuesday
that MTV was recently granted permission to shoot in a courtroom in
Beverly Hills, but it was done after hours — and that's not one of their
judges sitting on the bench in "The Hills" footage.


MTV was granted permission to film "what purported to be a wedding
outside of court hours" at the Beverly Hills courthouse, court spokesman
Allan Parachini said Tuesday. He did not know who the participants were
in the wedding, but Parachini said court officials wanted the filming to be
treated as a news event.


Exit question:Is MTV the most immoral channel on television or does Fox still
hold that title
?

Left Wing Blogosphere Responds to SNL's Brutal Olbermann Skit

For some reason I decided to take some time out and read someone
of the reaction in the progressive blogosphere regarding SNL's hilarious
skit on Keith Olbermann
. I wanted to see if the left has a sense of humor
about themselves. To be fair, most comments I read stated they thought
the skit was funny. However, some were not to happy with the lambasting
of Mr. Olbermann. Here are some reactions:

From Huffington Post:

Satire, done well is an art form. Keith Olbermann is a talented
journalist first, a commentator second. This SNL skit didn't
impress.

Um, Olbermann is not a journalist, he's a political commentator.

From Huffington Post:

Mildly amusing. But I've never seen Keith cut off a guest and on
the real show one gets the impression that Wolf is a respected
colleague, so that part didn't hold up too well. Lampooning liberal
ideas just isn't as funny.

Don't mock liberals!

From Huffington Post:

Olbermann is sometimes a histrionic windbag, yes, but he's
not morally at sea. This sketch was misplaced.


Better to take on real hate speech: Michael Savage, Rush
Limbaugh, and leave the mistakes of someone who is fundamentally
trustworthy to correct themselves.

Keith Olbermann fundamentally trustworthy? That's news to me!

From the Huffington Post:


NOT funny! Other than the piped in Laughs!


Very Mean Spirited!


Pure attack on Olbermann! Typical Republican Attack, like on Obama!


SNL is part of it!

Tries to save BUSH, but NOT Successful!

Typical Republican attack? LOL! Does this commenter not know that Ben
Affleck is a long time Democrat. He even said it in the opening of the show!

More attacks on Mr. Affleck from Huffington Post:

Affleck seemed to be channeling Ron Silver's bitter political split
with his formerly Democratic and liberal ideals.


Not SNL's finest hour. Maybe a hint of the depths they'll channel
after the election.

Again, all signs show that Mr. Affleck is good ol' liberal and a Barack Obama
supporter. Perhaps, he just thinks Olbermann is a joke. I mean I've heard
late night comics (who skewer Republicans much more than Democrats)
mock Keith Olbermann and MSNBC.

A Crooks and Liar commenter thinks the skit is dishonest:

BUT a dishonest skit. Olbermann's outrage is NEVER glib
or facile. For a long time, his was the ONLY voice on teevee
who dared call these evil corrupt disgraceful bastards out.
The only one.


Also note the free bit of rehabilitation for the Chimp - like
he's been unfairly attacked - my arse! Get ready for the
weepy farewell media tributes.


Olbermann has gone through the being IGNORED stage;
now the RIDICULE stage begins.

Oh also, he'll have the stones to highlight this on Countdown
so unlike all the other brave media figures who distain their
well-deserved critics.


Another Crooks and Liar commenter (edited):

They tolerate right wing extremist points of view as mainstream.


After all, we are now the country in the industrialized world with
40+ million citizens sans health insurance, heck indian reservations
have infant mortality rates as bad as certain 3rd world parts of
Africa, we have conducted a war of aggression against a country
that never attacked us that has caused probably close to 1 million
casualties in a country of less than 30 million people. And we are
a society stupid enough to give our money to the bankers, so that
they can loan us our very own money under some ridiculous
interests... talk about f-ing stupid! And yet so in line with
conservative ideals...


But someone dares been pissed of about that, and oh... noes...
he is a lefty extremist!!! Oh... gosh... think of the children.


A nation of f-ing idiots, that is what we are. BTW, if some people
here consider Olbermann's opinion as left extremist, I would
recommend these fools to not read some really left leaning
international press. You may get the shock of your life time.
You know, people out there having the indecency of fighting for
a more equalitarian society, with decent standards of living,
health care and quality of environment, and peace. That is
so f-ing extremist!!!!


Another attack on Affleck from Crooks and Liars:

Affleck's viscous spoof naievely pushed the hard liners view,
that the true Left is wrong in it's boldness, it's opposition to
the Right's pro-business, pro-Wall Sreet agenda. And that we
little citizens should all just be quiet and not make a stir - those
in power are all knowing.


Affleck is not the first of the Hollywood politico's to play the
monkey in a time of crisis, but it was the worst I've ever seen
at the worst time in our history. He therefore wins my very first
'Stupidest Person in the Whole Word" award. And beating out
Sarah or George was quite a feat.


This is probably the funniest. A Hollywood liberal is not left-wing enough
for these people. LOL!

More Drunk Jokes

I can't believe Iliza Shlesinger won Last Comic Standing last night.
Most of her jokes were about being drunk or other drunk people.
I just didn't find her all that funny.

Here's a clip of her stand up:



I have a theory about the way she dresses. I noticed throughout the season she
wore a t-shirt, jeans, and her hair was always in a ponytail. She never dressed
up, even for the finale. Stand-up comedy is all about the words coming out your
mouth and you don't want any distraction from that. That's why comics hate
hecklers. So I think she purposely dressed down so there would be no distraction
from her material. I know comedians don't usually get all dressed, it's a casual
affair. However, I think Ms. Shlesinger dressed down more than necessary.
Also, stand-up comedy is still a male dominated performance art. Ms. Shlesinger
was the first female to win after several seasons. So I think if she were to get
all dressed up for a set she would run the risk of not being taken seriously (I
know it's a funny choice of wording since we're talking about comedy).

"These people haven't had love for fifty years. So you can't be surprised if they get bitter and cling to their grease and their laziness and their stupid people. That's what my campaign is about. Teaching all the little people in this country that they can have goodness."

3 a.m. Call

Hillary Clinton's mouth piece, I mean Saturday Night Live,
ran this piece of satire last night:



I guess I can understand the claim that Obama is inexperienced but in
this skit he comes off as incompetent. I don't know where they get
incompetence from. He doesn't strike me as such.

You know what would make this skit funnier if they had both Clinton
and Obama in the Oval Office. Don't ask me which one as president
and which one as vice-president because it beats me. The Dems can't
make up their mind which one they absolutely love more so how am
I suppose to know? So both Obama and Clinton are in the White House
and they phone a cranky John McCain at 3 a.m. for advice.



Or better yet they phone Former President Bush in his ranch in Crawford,
TX. He proceeds to tell them, "You both ran on the exaggeration of my
incompetence and implied because of me the whole world is falling apart.
So, um, why are you calling?"

Hil Force One



Welcome aboard:
"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, and welcome aboard
the maiden flight of Hil Force One," Clinton said over the
plane's intercom as it taxied down the runway en route
from Las Vegas to Reno, Nev.

"My name is Hillary and I am so pleased to have most of you
on board," she said.

"FAA regulations prohibit the use of any
cell phones, Blackberries or wireless devices that may be used
to transmit a negative story about me.

"In a few minutes, I am going to switch off the 'Fasten Your Seat
Belt' sign. However, I've learned lately that things can get awfully
bumpy when you least expect it—so you might want to keep those
seat belts fastened.

"And in the event of an unexpected drop in poll numbers, this
plane will be diverted to New Hampshire.

"If you look out from the right, you will see an America saddled
with tax cuts for the wealthiest and a war without end. If you look
out from the left, you will see an America with a strong middle class
at home and a strong reputation in the world.

"Once we've reached cruising altitude, we'll be offering in-flight
entertainment: my stump speech.

"Once again, thank you for joining us on Hil Force One. We know
you have choices when you fly, and so we are grateful that you
chose the plane with the most experienced crew. And so we are
grateful that you chose the plane with the most experienced
candidate."
You should fasten your seat belt too, Hill. The next few weeks will
be a bumpy ride for you.

They Said What !?!



As always some truly nutty stuff is being said on the campaign trail
so I'm going to introduce a new 'series' called, "They Said What!?!"
Today's edition includes quotes with bad analogies to relationships
in them.

My first quote is from Sen. Clinton:

"I want a long term relationship," she said. "I don't want to just have
a one night stand with all of you."

Reminder to Hillary: You're a Clinton ex-nay on the one night stand
analo-jay (hey, I was having a hard time rhyming).

My second is from Mitt Romney:

"There is an initial infatuation and people take a close look on a person's
issues and decide whether they want to support them or not," the
former Massachusetts governor told CNN.

Um, I don't think there's much school girl giggling when it comes to
politics.
