THUG LIFE
By Benjamin Phillips
Why on earth is Still President Bush throwing gang signs?

Barack Obama stomped John McCain election night, and was elected president. I know. I was there. Check out all the Rally coverage here.
Sarah Palin all of a sudden in love with TV cameras now that she can't cost anyone any elections.
How John McCain whines like a little bitch so that he can attack everyone near him like a pathetic mad dog.
Why on earth is Still President Bush throwing gang signs?

Ok. One of the things I was looking forward to about life in post election America was the disappearance of Sarah Palin from the national stage. But will she go away?
Of course not.
No. She has, in defeat, discovered her inner media whore. She is making a sort of odd set of national interviews and is talking to any media outlet that will have her. She even spoke to “The Insider”, thus joining the prestigious ranks of such political luminaries as Tara Reid and Brittney Spears. To be fair, Barack Obama spoke to Mario Lopez and his Access Hollywood TV crew in the days before the election. What’s the diffrence you ask?
Easy.
Barack Obama has also done Meet The Press. And Face the Nation. And spoken to scores of other probing, legitimate media. Then, for a touch of levity before E-DAY, sat down with AC Slater. Sara Palin’s biggies so far have been Katie Couric (Disaster) and since election day, a man who many consider to be the Edward R Murrow of our day, Matt Lauer. And Charlie Gibson at one point. (Another Disaster). All three people either current or former daytime morning show people.
So I ask you. WHY WON’T SHE GO AWAY!?!?!?! This can’t be good for her. People need time to forget that she’s a moron. And it can’t be good for the Republican Party. The longer she stays in the media spotlight, the more Pundits and Reporters get to talk about how she doesn’t know that Africa is not it’s own full sized country, and how she can’t name the three Countries that make up the North America. IS SHE AWARE THAT THAT THE CAMPAIGN IS OVER? Perhaps someone should tell her that they’ve lost, and that at some point she should probably get back to, I don’t know, GOVERNING ALASKA! Unless Alaska is now located in the Green Room over at Fox News.
I will, therefore, stop talking about Sarah Palin. For at least a few months. That’s it. I’ve decided. I’m starting right now.
It feels like the entire world is here with me in grant park tonight. There are no words to describe the feeling here. Everyone is at the same time shocked, elated, and filled with relief. I will never forget it, and I will allways be grateful that I was here. It is the most outstanding thing that I have ever seen. It is beyond description. This night will live forever, until the end of our republic. And by the way, MaCain has made the call.
Waiting for california now. The nets should call this soon. I think speeches are coming soon. I wish I could get a good picture, but being here has been incredible. People are rivited to the coverage. Dancing is everywhere. Emotions are high. I’ve seen people crying out of happiness. Its all really happening.
