All of you know this is a project launched by Colbert after McCain’s boring speech was juxtaposed to Obama’s “We will stop the rise of the Oceans” acceptance speech, right?

Akin to his “Star Wars” project, where he cavorted with a lightsaber and let fans put him in action sequences using a green-screen, this was supposed to make McCain more exciting, as he speech clearly was very, very boring and strained.

Thanks for posting the clarifier, ´cause I would´ve if you hadn´t.

The title: “Project Make McCain Exciting,” which is golden in how it reveals by implication how shallow Obama’s own appeal is.

Heh.

It was cooler than McCain’s “Dr. No” ad that was so ancient my Dad wouldn’t even have understood the allusion to the pop culture. At least I remember watching Vogue with my babysitter.

Allah, you’ve missed the point entirely.

This is an obvious ploy to gain those all-important Log Cabin Republican votes.

Since Madonna and Justin Timberlake are promoting their new duo release (Jay Leno last night) their fans rationalized this as relevant even if INAUTHENTIC.

The setting did not work in sync. If the music is 20 years old, the McCain’s photos should have been from 20 years ago as well. And Hobama’s face was missing from the open shirt young black gay male dancer representing Obama 20 years ago.

Friday Stupid

Why they’d choose an almost 20-year old music video

Well, Madonna IS news today on Drudge: Madonna: I want a divorce... Guy: I want out of Kabbalah...

I cringe whenever I hear that. Her daring to invoke those names, linking she’s in their league. . .
