Another Awful BP Spill






Thanks to Talking Points Memo.


Meanwhile, BP once again proves how inept it is at PR -- by complaining that the obvious-parody Twitter feed needs to state clearly that it's a parody!


Well, on the upside, BP does help BPGlobalPR's public relations!

Gulp Fiction

Apparently, the audition for Titanic director James Cameron's first choice as romantic lead did not go well:



As a result, Leonardo DiCaprio ended up getting the role.

Ah, what could have been...

Lighten Up...Please?

Josh Marshall is upset about seeming GOP racial insensitivity:

06.17.08 -- 2:58PM // link recommend (34)


Republican Outreach


Button on sale at the Texas GOP state convention this weekend.

Late Update: Our reporter-bloggers at Election Central got in touch
with the folks at the Texas GOP. And they say they
didn't
know anything about it
, would have prevented it from being sold if they had.

--Josh Marshall

Oh, stop it!!! Josh is a friend of mine, but this is why liberals get the reputation of not having a sense of humor. This is not offensive. Repeat, this is not offensive. It. Is. Funny. You know how I know? I've used the same joke myself and gotten laughs. And, no, it's not one of those, it's-only-funny-if-a-black-person-says-it. It's just funny.

Calling Michelle Obama "Barack's Baby Mamma"? Yeah, that's offensive.

Making a "White House" joke, hardly. For the record, I also said that African-Americans would no longer be able to call 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, "the Blame-Whitey House" either.

Um, that one, you might want to stay away from.

Kanye & 50 Cent Gonna Be Mad...

Osama bin Laden upstages their carefully planned September 11 release strategy -- by dropping his first video in three and a half years (and, given his new dark beard, he may also endorse Just For Men).

This may be it for the leader of the al Qaeda crew: He can hide from U.S. and Coalition forces, but no one gets in the middle of a hip-hop beef and survives.

The N-Word

Between Michael Richards and Don Imus, there's been a fair bit of controversy over the last several months on what words can be used, by whom and in what setting. Well, this video helps clarify things with respect to that word that got Kramer in trouble (white people, please pay close attenion):

Friday Comic Book Blogging

Yes, we all love our comic books and the fascinating discussions that they engender on contemporary real-world issues. However, the medium started out in what were once known as newspaper "funny pages."

Here then is a list of sequential art that puts the "comic" (unintentional, though it may be) in "comic book".

(Hat tip to reader Gerry).

Some similarly-themed humor can also be found at the always valuable Superdickery.com.
