Some clever person has sampled the audiobook version of Barack Obama's memoir, 'Dreams From My Father', and used quotes for nefarious (well, techno) means. Remute, a producer from Hamburg, has twigged that 'beat + American President saying "motherfucker" = Internet glory'.

Here's the result:

It's D-Day for America, and pretty much the rest of the world. Will we be left at the mercy of buffoons with terrifying foreign policies for another four years? Lets hope not.

Apparently this video has broken the record previously set by the Evolution of Dance by getting more than 100 Million views on the site.
I've a feeling its a lot to do with the name of the title being a whole lot of commonly searched words words not to mention the fact that the tags on the video are:
cansei, de, ser, sexy, Music, Ipod, touch, commercial, hot, sex, boyfriend, music, apple, nick, haley, computer, qoob, Barack, Obama.

The videos below but I should warn you that it does not feature anything resembling Hot Hot Sex

Samantha Power, an Irish born adviser to Barack Obama has been forced to resign from his campaign due to comments she made about Hillary Clinton.

"She is a monster, too - that is off the record - she is stooping to anything,"

The Scotsman obviously doesn't know the meaning of the term 'off the record', or (more than likely) just don't give a damn. Sensing a snappy headline, and no doubt trying to shift a few issues, the daily newspaper published the comment anyway, leading to Ms Power's being forced to resign.

Which is fairly shitty.

Blathnaid has the full story here, and her own take on the madness here.

So was Samantha Power justified in her comments?

Hmmmmm.....

(Don't mind me, I'm just shit-stirring)

It's official, John McCain is now the Republican party candidate for this year's US presidential election.

Last night (or right now, depending on when you're reading this) the states of Vermont, Ohio, Texas and Rhode Island went to the polls to decide on their choices for party candidates. This is considered one of the last great battles in the race for nomination, and it's proven too much for 'Crazy' Mike Huckabee, who has finally admitted defeat by his hard-as-nails opponent, John McCain.

This pretty much means there's now a 50-50 chance that the man pictured above giving terrorism the ol' pirate-eye will soon be the 'leader of the free world'.

This is terrifying because not only does he subscribe to the shoot first, ask questions later ethos that has served America so poorly, but he has genuine Rambo-style life experience in 'The Shit', so is likely to take no prisoners.

Oh, and there's always this classic.

Obama has apparently walked Vermont, so hopefully the other three states will follow suit. Clinton is on a twelve state losing streak, which she may not pull out of. If by tomorrow she hasn't been successful in either Texas or Ohio, we can safely say her campaign is screwed.

From the man himself:



Soooo....

• nuclear proliferation/ disarmament
• open dialog with 'enemies'
• common sense
• the nuclear proliferation/ disarmament thing is really all I needed, to be honest.

Ubermoron Bush has made the threat of Mass Destruction and huge scale collateral damage frighteningly real with his dangerous foreign policies & general surly fighting talk. We need some sense in the White House, and nuclear disarmament sounds pretty damned sensible to me.

I know what you're thinking- this man can do anything- and it may be true.

Barack Obama may be trailing Hillary Clinton in the polls, but on Sunday he claimed a victory over another Clinton- at the Grammys.

Both Obama & former President Bill Clinton were nominated in the Spoken Word category, a gong that each have won in the past- Obama once in 2006 for his memoir 'Dreams From My Father', and Clinton in 2004 for his reading of 'Peter & The Wolf' and in 2005 for his own memoir, 'My Life'.

Of course, anything these guys can do, Hillary is more than capable of doing herself. She also is a Grammy award winner, taking the prize in 1997 for her book 'It Takes A Village'.

It seems they really do give these things out to anyone, but it still doesn't make Obama any less of a legend.

The Wilco frontman is headlining a Barack Obama fundraising gig in Chicago.

Fair play to him. Obama still seems to me like the most sane candidate for the US presidency (Read: thoroughly undesirable position of cleaning up Bush's mess).
