Sex For Tix

Ticketmaster

Some slut is offering sexy time for tickets to tonight's speech at Invesco:

There's lots of ticket cadging going on in Denver today, but this posting in the "casual encounters" section of Craigslist is hard to beat:

I am a card carrying Dem but that's only part of my interest in this week. This week has brought more excitement, people, and activity than I will probably ever see here again. I just need the right guy to help me plug into it all.

I'm downtown today and would love to accompany you tonight's speech and the parties afterward. I'm real. I like sex but I'm not a ho, so please show some respect. I'm 43, 5'6", slender, brown hair, hazel eyes, hispanic, ex-model.

I could easily meet you for coffee, lunch or drinks to see if we click ... if you reply with a pic, I will respond one way or the other. Let's enjoy the day, see our next President speak and celebrate afterwards.

The post in the "w4m" section of Denver's Craigslist page is illustrated with a snapshot of the poster's cleavage.

Again, Why I Watch MSNBC

Senator Unicorn, You're No Jonas Brothers

OMGEEZ!!!

It may be Barack's party, but his daughters really could care less......like most of us are starting to do.

After Michelle spoke Monday, she told Malia and Sasha there was a surprise waiting for them. But not the one they wanted:

When Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, took the stage at the Democratic National Convention in Denver on Monday night after their mom Michelle's speech, they had no idea their dad was going to be beamed in live via satellite. When Mrs. Obama told the girls she had a surprise for them, the potential first lady was pretty surprised at the response, according to CNN.

"Is it the Jonas Brothers?" Malia asked.

The girls were pretty upset when they found out they would have to be in Denver during the same weekend Kevin, Nick and Joe would be in their hometown of Chicago — the girls' love for the Jonas boys is well-documented. The senator spent his birthday lounging around and drinking beer while his daughters danced around to the superstars' music on their iPods. And while he finds their music "wholesome enough," he doesn't entirely get it.

"Who are these guys?" he recalled asking his daughters while visiting "Kidd Kraddick in the Morning" last February. "And how many pictures of them do you need on your wall?"


As many as it takes, Barry.

Something Finally Intentionally Funny On John McCain's Webtubes



via John McCain's crazy picturebox with a typewriter

Women Cunt!



HuffPo stalked Hillary Clinton today and listened to a 10 min speech that she held in a dumpster in a seedy downtown Denver alley. With the rest of the hobos.

She spoke to her lady bitters about voting and MoveOn and the Dem party, but def not Barry Hussein.

If this speech is anything like what she'll give tonight, then I'm really gonna have to buy more booze. However, put a sign behind her like this that says "Women Count" and at the right timing (2:33 in this vid) it'll atleast be entertaining.

Shed A Tear For Ted Kennedy



Here's video of a loveable old alcoholic everyone cried for last night because he suffers from liberal brain AIDS or something.

MSNBC Unveils Luke



From Radar:

Little Luke Russert's popped his convention cherry! Here he is on Chris Matthews' Hardball Sunday, chatting about "the e-mail, The Facebook, The YouTube," and in general burrowing straight into the heart of his expertise: The Youth Vote! And you know, he doesn't do so bad. Only, someone get this kid a comb!

What Did You Expect?

McCain Says Draft Needed To Find OBL



TRANSCRIPT:

AUDIENCE MEMBER: Senator McCain I truly hope you get the opportunity to chase Bin Laden right to the gates of hell and push him in as you stated on your forum. I do have a question though. Disable veterans, especially in this state have horrible conditions, their medical is substandard. They drive four hours one way to Albuquerque for a simple doctors appointment which is often canceled. Our VA hospital is dirty it is understaffed, it is running on maximum overload. The prescription medicines are ten years behind standard medical care we have seven hundred claims stacked up at the VA office in Albuquerque some of them are ten and seven years old waiting to be processed in the mean time these people are homeless. My son is an officer in the Air Force, and I am a vet and I was raised in a military family. I think it is a sad state of affairs when we have illegal aliens having a Medicaid card that can access specialist top physicians, the best of medical and our vets can't even get to a doctor. These are the people that we tied yellow ribbons for and Bush patted on the back. If we don't reenact the draft I don't think we will have anyone to chase Bin Laden to the gates of hell.

JOHN MCCAIN: Ma'am let me say that I don't disagree with anything you said and thank you and I am grateful for your support of all of our veterans.

A Belated Congrats To Matt Mitcham

Gold

He won the gold:

From gay icon, to Olympic champion, Australian, Matthew Mitcham has won his first gold medal. He is the only openly gay male athlete competing in Beijing. There are 9 lesbians and one bisexual woman competing alongside him.

In the last moment he snatched the gold from China's Zhou Luxin, achieving earning four perfect 10s on his last dive, a back two-and-a-half somersault with two-and-a-half twist and a difficulty of 3.8 earning him four perfect tens and a total of 112 from that dive alone. He finished with 537.95 points.

And This Is What The Clintons Are Feeding



Jesus Christ. What Now, Bill?

This postcard was sent from Bill Clinton to his grandmother in 1966.  He was 19 and a sophomore at Georgetown University.



Guess who's still being a pouty pants? Bill. Now it's about the subject matter of the primetime speech he was given by BO:

As Democrats arrived here Sunday for a convention intended to promote party unity, mistrust and resentments continued to boil among top associates of presumptive nominee Barack Obama and his defeated rival, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

One flashpoint is the assigned speech topic for former president Bill Clinton, who is scheduled to speak Wednesday night, when the convention theme is “Securing America’s Future.” The night’s speakers will argue that Obama would be a more effective commander in chief than his Republican rival, Sen. John McCain (Ariz.).

The former president is disappointed, associates said, because he is eager to speak about the economy and more broadly about Democratic ideas — emphasizing the contrast between the Bush years and his own record in the 1990s.


The Obama camp quickly denied this, but it's been confirmed by Politico and CNN.

Either way, the Clintons need a big helpin' of SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Also, the above picture is an actual postcard that Bill sent to his grandmammy in 1966.

When he was 19.

And a sophmore at Georgetown University.
