I love this story, Ford has announced its latest innovation: cars that park themselves. Based of course on 4 year old Japanese/German technology. That’s giving the consumer what they need and putting the bailout funds to work. GO USA USA

Truman Capote had a better game than Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon in which he would connect celebrities to each other through sex partners. He once connected a few people to Adolf Hitler this way, but I can’t remember who, exactly. Maybe it was Kevin Bacon; I don’t know.
I loved Madoff in Weekend at Bernie’s.
I don’t think that survey is entirely accurate – some GOPers linger on the intertubes, laboring unpaid without Walnuts golf gear.
Almost 1,500 non-unique users have used the ThankUGeorgeW website and, I think Joe the Forum has maybe 25 active users. TeamSarah & Hillaryis44 is so busy they haven’t gotten around to processing my request for membership yet.
Given the choice between unwinding the Gordion knot that is Israel/Palestine or play basketball, I’d rather play basketball (and I’m no fan), too.
I honestly wonder what the Israelis and Palestinians would do if they didn’t want to kill each other? That would be like asking to stop the earth from rotating around the sun.
Why didn’t a Hollywood type more despicable and more douchey lose their money? I’d enjoy it if the Church of Scientology and the entire cast of The Hills/Whateverthefuckthosespinoffsare went bankrupt.
Mr. Obama will attend a White House luncheon on Wednesday to which Mr. Bush has invited every former president.
Presumably Goofus will graciously allow Barry to actually eat at the luncheon table, and not mistake him for one of the other White House waitrons and banish him to the kitchen.
That’s Weekend at Bernie’s, with Andrew McCarthy, who was in St. Elmo’s Fire with Demi Moore, who was in A Few Good Men, with Kevin Bacon, YAY!
[re=207408]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: Barry can only sit at the kiddie table until he’s a real actual former president. And that goes for W as well.
Barry is practicing family values. He’ll probably never have this kinda time with the 3 lovely ladies in his life for another 8 years or so. So, why not?
It’s 2009 in Asia btw, so HNY!!!!!!
The protesters should just leave Barry alone. He is unemployed and homeless, just like the rest of us.
[re=207411]Bruno[/re]: I’m just realizing what a great buddy comedy “Barry and the Dub” would make. Shot of both exiting their apartment building as Bush hurks up a pretzel. Obama shooting Bush a disappointing glare as he stabs it with the tip of his umbrella.
Is that gonna be Barry’s way of avoiding responsibility? “I don’t wanna fix Gaza, I wanna do layups!” and then hitting the court for a little too long. That’s slightly better than Bush just pretending to fall asleep and everyone backing out of the room trying not to wake him. At least we’ll know how many crises Barry shirked by the quality of his shot.

Jesus, what’s Barry supposed to do? Pimp roll in and take over the situation room in the WH? Shit, Hippies, protest Bush, HE’S the POTUS…
No way, it is not the Mayflower- I’d bet the 4 Seasons in Georgetown – not as close as the Hay Adams to the White House but closer to Sidwell and away from the homeless in Lafayette Square.
so the President-elect and his family are staying in Room 871 at the Mayflower.
Yes, Mr and Mrs…Smith…we have your room ready.
[re=207414]MrAgro[/re]: Good call. But they both had a party side – its hard to reconcile Barry being the uptight one. I think it should be set in their rebellious youth with Barry being the guy who hooks up W with his stash and then the go on a road trip to G-bay. Oh shit that ones already been done.
Maybe one of those trading places kinda buddy movies would be good where they join forces to defeat evil in the end? (Palin or Hillz in role of wicked school teacher)
[re=207413]shanemcgowan[/re]: Win.
[re=207404]Larry McAwful[/re]: Oh yeah, I remember this! It was called Lay Lines, and it connected Henry VIII and Sara, Duckess of York, in one massive royal crew-screw.
Wait – Barry has to solve the Mideast crisis, even though he’s not even President yet? Does that mean I can solve that clusterfuck as well, since I’m not President either? OK here goes: Stop bitching over small strips of land and learn to co-exist with a nosy neighbor with loud, obnoxious opinions. Just look to Michigan and Ohio for a historical example.
Or, just bomb each other off the face of the Earth and leave the rest of us alone.
I’ve given you options. Go.
[re=207414]MrAgro[/re]: Poetic justice would have Barry shooting Dubya a disapproving glance while shoving the umbrella up Goober’s rectum.
[re=207402]Bruno[/re]:
I was thinking the same thing. Who gives a fuck? People aren’t buying foreign cars because they park themselves.
Good to see the Democrats have the balls to stand up to someone in their own party. Now if someone could take off their blindfolds, turn them around & point them at the Republicans maybe they can finally do what they were elected to do — enact into law Hopey’s agenda.
Reid’s going to be remembered as butt candy for the incompetent Bush administration and for deliberately crippling Hopey’s majority in the Senate. I’m surprised someone with neither spine nor spleen can actually walk upright, much less lead (in the way a clown leads a circus) the Democrats in the Senate.
[re=207425]friendlynerd[/re]: It’s just Ford’s way of telling their prospective customers: “Go park yourselves…”
Of course he wants to play basketball. Sports > human rights. See also Beijing Olympics.
[re=207430]Mr Blifil[/re]: Win!
[re=207430]Mr Blifil[/re]: Rather than cars that park themselves, Ford ought to invest in cars that sell themselves.
Was Bobby Rush an R&B singer? ‘Cause he blew his voice out doing something.
[re=207408]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: Did GWB invite Harding and Tyler or is he getting picky this year?
[re=207404]Larry McAwful[/re]: Kevin Bacon is really starting to regret his Tuesday night takedown of Leni Riefenstahl.
[re=207407]ManchuCandidate[/re]: [re=207416]freakishlystrong[/re]: I guess the hippies are very like the Israelis and Palestinians in their own right. If they didn’t have their own thing to do (blowing each other up / protesting everything) well, then, what would they do?
[re=207473]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Two Degrees of Hitler, FTW! Jawohl.
Kevin Bacon once ate at a restaurant where I was working. Does that make me related to Hitler?
[re=207422]magic titty[/re]: I’m glad someone has come up with some sensible advice to set those losers staight.
Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon is just another Ponzi scheme, you know.
Did the Blagger, Barris and Bobby not pay attention during this election? You win because of racial transcendence, not playing the race card every chance you get. Just ask Billz.
I’m sure Bacon knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who has the money.
Tasty revenge for Obama on that clown Rush, who crushed Obama in his first election by calling Obama a fifth-column steppin’ and fetchin’ uncle tom high-yella house negro. And Jesse Jackson Sr. was kind enough to pile-on. That would be the Obama whose dad is from AFRICA. Obama is making these pathetic race-vampires retire to their caskets in shame. That is change I can believe in.
[re=207473]SayItWithWookies[/re]: She could probably get him good film work, though. Or maybe the other way around. I’d love to see how Riefenstahl would have directed “My Dog Skip.”
