To Hell with Substance

Let's get right to the most important point. As I watched Obama's speech last night, when he claimed that "the nation that invented the automobile can not walk out on it," I said, "Uh, you mean Germany?" And in fact, that little faux pas did not go unnoticed (although practically the whole Congress stood up and cheered). At least with this morning's attention to the "gaffe", maybe our fine citizens will be forced to take notice of how the U.S. likes to claim credit for being the first and the best at everything, when it's not always true.

On second thought...we'll manage to gloss over and go on.


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.


And another thing: Facebook is scary.

And one more thing...can we please, please, please call a moratorium on belly fat advertisements on the internet? I think I'd rather see pictures of George Bush!


And P.S. Was Nancy Pelosi on uppers or is she really a jack-in-the-box with a hair trigger?

Update: 2/28/09: "Although Obama was greeted warmly, the night's speech was no small task. Obama's challenge would be to convey to the American public the sobering realities of our current situation, while maintaining an optimistic tone for the future, all while desperately, desperately, desperately trying not to turn around for a quick game of wack-a-mole. Interesting fact about Nancy Pelosi: she is one-eighth gopher, on her father's side." --Jon Stewart
