been saying “president-elect” obama all day…

At 6:45pm PST, we here at onelonelysuccess.com are prepared to make a call in the 2008 Presidential Election:
Senator Barack Obama (D) from Illinois has won the presidential election over John McCain (R) of Arizona and will become the 44th President of the United States.
Celebrate accordingly.
today I wore my Obama shirt and my lucky boxers…ladies?
Vote
so tonight sarah silverman was on Jay Leno which feels like it should be be illegal in at least 48 states.
nonetheless, she was able to promote her pro-obama video “the great schlep” which is both politcal & comedy genius.
next week, when obama wins, i’m going to invite sarah to my election-after-party.
so one of my prankster friends sent me this b/c my friends are a bunch of jokers who think that they are comedians who deserve their own fuck HBO special.
*love you*
anyway, when I saw it I couldnt help but think of the great-fuck-state of FLORIDA!
now i know that according to all the polls, even a backward-fuck-state like FL couldnt dick up this election for the rest of us (AGAINx2) but it’s hard to forget the past when you’ve been burned.
the rude pundit sums up perfectly the impact of Obama’s infomercial to racist-white-conservative-america:
If you still thought prior to it that Barack Obama was going to rape your white wife and kill your white children, there’s no amount of ad time that would change your mind.
the “rest” of us watched it and were—once again—amazingly proud to have supported Obama for the past 20months.
next tuesday cannot come soon enough.
here’s a beautifully done video…
our country votes in less than a week.
if you are fortunate enough to live in a state that is voting on equal marriage rights, then consider your vote carefully; history will remember each and every one of us.
whom better to deliver this message than Reagan himself?
wonderfully timely video…
one week to go kids.
ok, i admit that it took me about 30seconds to figure out the punchline of this cartoon…nice job Daryl Cagle.
Today Apple Inc issued this statement opposing Proposition 8 in California:
Apple is publicly opposing Proposition 8 and making a donation of $100,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person’s fundamental rights — including the right to marry — should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.
good on you, Apple.
This is a photo of the two presidential candidates immediately following the 3rd presidential debate.
One of them has a strong lead over the other.
…can you guess who the front-runner is?
with exactly 2 weeks remaining until the general election, i wanted to send a message to the all important “undecided voter“.
you are an uninformed attention whore.
now before you call me a jerk, realize that these are among the stupidest people in the country. for nearly the past 2 years, both Obama and McCain have been campaigning around-the-clock from coast-to-coast and only the most intentionally ignorant and purposely uninformed could still be “undecided”.
the geniuses at the Daily Show illustrate this point with the following pie chart:
in closing, consider the words of David Sedaris (whose latest book, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, is pure genius) has the following to say with regards to undecided voters:
To put them in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. “Can I interest you in the chicken?” she asks. “Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it?”
To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked.
today, funny or die brings us this video gem from hayden panettiere (the cheerleader from heroes).
included in this clip is her smiling face, an endorsement for john mccain and multiple instances of the f-bomb…in other words, it is my favorite internet video of all time.
i’ve only ‘done’ one of these…
BAM
i love this lady. she looks like she could be grandma.
