Political Sex

President Barack Obama is in the Bay Area to do get a bunch of rich liberals to give him money. Well, not give, they got to have dinner with him for $35,800. That’s a stupid amount of money, and I don’t mean “stupid” like expensive, I mean it’s kind of random. Why not round that down to an even $35,000, or up to $40,000? I bet some douche-bag campaign adviser put a lot thought into this; we’d like to get $35,000, but I bet we could get more, but probably not $36,000, hmm, how about $35,500? - to which Obama hopefully said, “I don’t give a shit, they’ll pay whatever we ask… Let’s do $35,800, so it seems like there’s a reason.

One of those rich people was Lady Gaga. And apparently there’s a Q&A portion of the dinner, which if you don’t know means Question and Answer. The only reason I say that is because I’m not sure Lady Gaga knows, from this story:

According to a source present in the tent fundraiser, Gaga asked a question during the Q&A. She first thanked the president for what he’s accomplished, then read from what she said was a letter from a fan about the suicide of another fan who had been subjected to bullying.

She thanked Obama for hosting his anti-bullying conference with Michelle Obama, and then made a general plea to everyone in the room, including the president, to do what they can to prevent bullying.

Obama – And what’s your question, Miss Gaga? Did anyone get a question? Uh, do you just want me to talk about bullying? Okay, I guess I can do that.

Obama thanked her, spoke about his administration’s anti-bullying campaign, and then more generally about the importance of values and who we are as Americans.

This all sounds like a really good use of a President’s time.

Ever since I saw that douche bag get with Angelina Jolie in Hackers I thought being a hacker would be really cool, plus I was kind of into rollerblading at the time and all the hacker in the movie roller-bladed - looking back now, I think I was kind of a dork; but whatever, being a hacker still seems like it would be really cool. HACK THE PLANET! That goofy, ass-face from Scream was in that movie too. Fuck that was a terrible movie.

Anyway, some hacker group is mad at Facebook, from this story:

Anonymous could be planning a Nov. 5 cyber attack against the world’s largest social networking site, Facebook.

Whoever posted the video — whether actually from members of Anonymous or someone claiming to be affiliated with the group — said the reasoning behind the planned attack was allegations of Facebook selling its users’ personal information to government agencies “so that they can spy on people from all around the world. Some of these so-called whitehat infosec firms are working for authoritarian governments, such as those of Egypt and Syria. “

Of course, November 5th is Guy Fawkes day. And this is what I don’t get about vigilantes these days; they always pick days that are already famous for something someone else did that was similar. Guy Fawkes didn’t try to blow up Parliament on someone else’s day. Pick your own day. Be original. Or don’t, I don’t really care.

Would Facebook really be missed? It might be a little bit of a hassle to go back to myspace or to something new, maybe Google+ (is that something people use, yet?).

I take it back, Hackers was a cool movie, and I was cool, too:

Sometimes I think we in The United States have a pretty boring existence, and sometimes I think that it would be more interesting to have to deal with an oppressive government, one that you may have to revolt against. But then I think about what’s on TV tonight and I try to decide between cooking at home or picking up something on the way, and it’s Friday so who am I trying to fool, of course I’m going to pick something up along the way – I really wish there was a Taco Bell on the way because I’m feeling really lazy and don’t want to go out of the way to get Taco Bell even though that’s what I’m really craving, probably because of all the media attention it’s been getting about their delicious ‘beef.’ So, having to be a part of a revolution - gathering good throwin’ rocks, throwing the rocks, dodging rubber bullets – doesn’t really fit into my schedule right now. And how tiring would that be… it doesn’t seem like something you can do for a bit and then go get a couple beers. It’s quite the commitment.

The Egyptian government has also turned off the Internet, from this story:

To combat social media, another important weapon for the demonstrators, outside experts and people living in the country say the government has coordinated a blockage of certain communications websites and unplugged internet access entirely to parts of the country.

On Thursday, protesters active on Twitter and Facebook, publicly documenting demonstrations on the streets of Cairo, Alexandria and other cities, went quiet. Around the same time, many websites centralized on servers in Egypt disappeared.

And the US government wants to give the President the power to do the same (link)?

Sarah Palin’s daughter Willow has a stupid name, unless you’re a little person who fights with magic along side Val Kilmer. She also is an asshole.

It seems that someone commented on Willow’s facebook page about ”Sarah Palin’s Alaska” - and from the 43 seconds that I did watch is such a self-indulgent jerk-fest, it might as well just have Sarah Palin running around Alaska rubbing her crotch on everything - Oh, look an Alaskan tree (rub, rub) Hey, there’s some snow (rub, rub) oh yeah, that’s nice, oh my god there’s a bear, I’m going to fuck it (rub, rub) Come on, bear (rub) Do it, bear! (rub, rub) Why won’t this Mama Grizzly fuck me (rub, rub, rub)…

Anyway, Willow got all sixteen year old bitch girl about it and starts calling the guy names. Who cares. What I do care about is grammar. And Willow, if you want to say “you are so gay,” it’s “you’re so gay,” because “your so gay” means that the guy is in possession of a “so gay.” And that goes for “your disgusting” and “your such a faggot.” If you’re (you are) going to insult someone, make sure you do it correctly. For example: Willow, you’re a fucking idiot. And I know it’s subjective, but no, Bristol is not “still hot,” at all. Don’t get me wrong, I’d still wring her out, but that’s because she’s Sarah Palin’s daughter, on TV, and it would make Sarah Palin notice the stud that I am, in which she would then be compelled to let me bang her too.

You’re a fucking liar if you don’t think this is adorable. Well, the mom of this kid was arrested for something that has to do with pot or kids or shag carpet. Whatever. Who cares. He’s not really smoking out of the bong. The kid picked up his mom’s bong, the mom took a picture, sent it to her friends, and they put it on facebook.

I guess there could be some resin on it that could possibly get into the baby’s system. And I would punch someone in the nose if I saw them letting their baby sucking on a bong or pipe. But I didn’t see it happen, and besides having a fuck-up for a mom the kid’s going to be fine. The only thing cuter than this picture would be a baby snorting a line of coke with a hundred dollar bill off a hookers tit… and wearing over-sized sunglasses.
