Politics and Sex Tapes

I guess those two aren't necessarily part of different categories.

Today, I have some rants as well as some fantastic articles including a raunchy sex tape that would make Jenna Jameson blush. Well maybe not Jenna.

First off I want to mention top Clinton advisor Terry McAuliffe's appearance on "Meet the Press". I know this has been done to death by Comedy Central, but I wanted to just say it again. The guy told Tim Russert, the host of the show, that Hillary would keep on fighting. Here is a quote from their interview:

"But it's not impossible for Hillary Clinton to win," said McAuliffe. "A lot of people have said that. Big Russ, if he were sitting here today -- nothing's impossible. Jack McAuliffe, if they were with us today, they're probably both in heaven right now Tim, probably having a scotch, looking down saying, you know what: this fight goes on. It's good for the Democratic Party. Millions of people coming out to vote, it's exciting."

This implication was that Mr. Russert Sr. or "Big Russ" was dead. To which Tim responded:
"Big Russ is in the Barcalounger still watching this...God bless him."

So my thing is, this is a rediculously stupid mistake. 1) It's just straight-up embarassing to McAuliffe as a person, calling a guy's father dead to his face when he is alive. 2) It reflects poorly on the Clinton campaign since this is supposed to be her top advisor, her campaign co-chair, and he clearly did not do enough research before appearing on the show. I mean, if you don't know that someone is dead, you don't make a comment about them.
The guy looks like a boob. I mean that in the older "my parents generation" way. Not a breast.

Also in politicsland, the US Ambassador to Zimbabwe (the country with all the election turmoil) was stopped by police outside of a hospital, where he and others with him, had just visited victims of violence from the election scandal, which was rampant. The Ambassador was told to stop because there was concern over photographs taken in the hospital, however he was never told he was under arrest (woulda been a bad move). He then told the police "no" and lifted the barrier blocking their car, then his entourage drove off.
What a pimp. This guy knows they are not going to touch him, so why should he listen to a bunch of police/security guards. Like they would arrest a U.S. Diplomat, AMBASSADOR even more so.

Now for the real news.
A sex tape has just been released that is ranchier than Pamela and Tommy Lee's best seller. It makes Paris Hilton's and Kim Kardasian's (however is f-ing spelled) tapes look like cheap attempts for publicity. O wait, they were. The tape my friend, is titled:
"Seal caught on tape molesting a penguin"
O yes, its that naughty. Scientists discovered the act when observing elephant seals in Antarctica, when they noticed a young male Antarctic fur seal subduing a king penguin.
"At first we thought it was hunting the penguin, but then it became clear that his intentions were rather more amorous," - Stated one of the scientitians.
Another excerpt from the the article:
"The roughly 240-pound seal subdued the 30-pound adult penguin by lying on it. The hapless bird of unknown sex struggled, rapidly flapping its flippers and attempting to stand and flee, without luck. The seal then alternated between resting on the penguin and thrusting its pelvis at the bird in vain attempts to insert its penis for 45 minutes"
That penguin is going to need a lot of therapy.

An Australian man was arrested when he failed to restrain his 5-year old child with a seat belt while driving. The seatbelt was already in use, to hold a case of beer from falling. Finally someone has their priorities straight.

Celebrity British chef Gordon Ramsay wants England to outlaw out of season fruits and vegetables. I shit you not. Why? either for attention, or because he really deeply cares about British cuisine.

I was going to rant about how the UN, or U.S. or someone should just invade and overthrow the Junta in "Burma" or "Myanmar", in order for 2,00,000 more people to avoid death. But I don't feel like it anymore. Thoughts on that topic?

Thats all for today. Leave a post.

Keepin it real from the loop
