    Obama Sends Turkey to Die in California

    After a hilarious speech, President Obama pardoned the first turkey of his administration, continuing this delightful tradition that should probably be ended, immediately. More »

    Meet the Hot Boyfriend David Geffen Took to Obama's State Dinner

    It's well known that movie mogul David Geffen is Obama's Gay Friend. This was reinforced by tonight's state dinner, where Geffen sat at Obama's table. Oh, and Geffen's plus one was there, too: His hunky, 26-year-old boyfriend. More »

    Obama Sucks at Golf

    The President has, to the chagrin of many, abandoned the basketball court for the links. He plays furtively, say the Wall Street Journal, because he's no Tiger Woods. More »

    Obama: Fundamentals of the Economy Are Still Strong

    During the presidential campaign, John McCain stupidly announced that "the fundamentals of the economy are still strong," a statement that Barack Obama hung around his neck like a flaming car tire. Today, Obama hailed the economy's "core strengths." Whoops. More »

    Maureen Dowd Thinks Obama Should Totally Act Like Sarah Palin

    Maureen Dowd, this weekend: Obama should try to be "dynamic" like Sarah Palin, instead of all this "dithering" and bowing. Today, Ross Douthat writes a "reality-based" column on more or less the same topic! More »

    Obama's First Thanksgiving Proclamation: Just OK

    Thanksgiving Proclamations are, for the most part, pretty routine. Namecheck settlers, Washington, Lincoln, God, and our Troops. Encourage people to give thanks. The end. But there are some key differences between a Bush declaration and an Obama declaration! More »

    Obama (Sort of) Comments on the Bow Flap: Controversy 'Leaves Me Speechless'

    Barack Obama has responded, via an anonymous aide, to charges that by bowing to the Communist emperor of Japan he was actually surrendering and apologizing for World War II, which is technically illegal because he's not a citizen. More »

    Which Upper West Side Personality and 1983 Obama Roommate Needs a Memoir-Writing Assistant?

    Blind items! They happen. Especially in Craigslist's depths, where inanity prevails in the form of, among other ways you never wanted to consider possible, job listings. So we want to know: which "highly visable" former Obama roommate needs an assistant? More »

    CafePress Is No Longer Officially Okay with Praying for Obama's Death

    CafePress has reversed itself for the second time and discontinued once and for all the sale of "Pray For Obama: Psalm 109:8" merchandise, which is Christian code for "pray for Obama to get killed by God." More »

    Obama Joins Truman, Reagan, and Clinton In "Immediately Failed Presidencies" Club

    It is a good thing the American Constitution calls for instant run-off presidential elections the minute the "winner" dips below 50% approval, or else we would be stuck with the most unpopular president in American history for years to come. More »

    CafePress Is Officially Cool with Selling T-Shirts Urging People to Pray for Obama's Death

    Yesterday, we reported that CafePress had halted sales of T-shirts bearing the slogan, "Pray For Obama: Psalm 109:8," which in Bible-talk means pray that "his days be few; let another take his office." After some thought, they're selling them again. More »

    Obama Is a Starving Starlet: From President to 'Anorexia?' Tabloid Bait in Five Easy Steps

    Accused of skipping meals and wasting away, the leader of the free world protested: Am not, I have naturally fine bones, and I'm under a lot of pressure. Hey Barack, quit stealing Nicole Richie's lines. More »

    Christian Conservatives Praying for God to Kill Obama

    There's a hilarious new meme in the wingnut sectors of the internet: someone's coined a bumper sticker slogan encouraging people to pray for Barack Obama. But here's the funny part: it's really a secret Christian code for "Kill the President!' More »

    A Truce in Obama's "War" on Fox "News"?

    Obama is minutes away from being interviewed by the very network that one of his operatives firebombed said was basically an arm of the Republican Party. Fox's Major Garrett tweets: "I will interview POTUS Wed am here in Beijing." [AP]

    Communist China Tries to Protect Obama from Being Called a Communist

    China banned these "Oba-Mao" T-shirts, which were selling at a brisk pace in Beijing, last week in an apparent effort to avoid embarrassing Barack Obama during his visit. The weird thing is, in China, it's a pro-Obama shirt. More »

    Barack Obama Has Better Things to Do Than Tweet

    You would have been delusional to think that the president didn't use a ghostwriter to update his Twitter account, @BarackObama. Still, it's now been confirmed that he didn't write any of his 418 tweets. Geeks are scandalized. More »

    Politico Challenges Bob Bauer's Credentials, Headlines Story 'Bob Bauer's Credentials Challenged'

    The Four Clips That Prove ABC's V Is Anti-Obama Propaganda

    David Plouffe Is a Two-Faced Machiavelli Who Broke Our Hearts

    David Plouffe ran Barack Obama's campaign as a steady and extended fuck-you to the hyperventilating Drudge junkies at Politico, and we loved him for it. Now he's admitted he was leaking to them the whole time. More »
