Former President George W. Bush just responded to Kanye West’s infamous 2005 accusation that “Bush doesn’t care about black people” in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.
Bush took it right to Kanye, via the “Today” show, five years later, saying that he “didn’t appreciate it.”
West’s original statement criticized Bush’s slow response time.
Miss him, yet?
(You can tell we do.)
There are certain traditions every U.S. president must observe.
Every year, they have to pardon a turkey from Thanksgiving, while everyone the turkey loves gets a duck and a chicken stuffed inside of them.
They have to give a State of the Union Address, even though they are only constiutionally required to write it down. (Kinda like people who read their blogs to you.)
They have to pardon Richard Nixon at the end of their term. (Gerald Ford started that one.)
And, of course, they have to restart Mideast peace talks.
We’ve made our position very clear on this Web site: we do not tolerate pets. They’re either animals, which is fraternizing with the enemy, or rocks, which are stupid.
But what about Chia Pets? They’re plants, so they require water and loud metal music to thrive like humans, and they mock animals by growing luxurious manes that produce oxygen. Sounds good, right?
Unfortunately, Cha-cha-cha-Chia Pets are ra-ra-ra-racist.
In the modern debate over what symbols are racist when addressed at the first African-American serving as President of the United States, Walgreen’s has decided that it is not acceptable to grow a green ‘fro on Barack Obama’s head.
We’re waiting for ChiaObama.com to respond that “it wasn’t racist when liberals bought Mattel’s Barbie Magic Bush-trimming Boutique.”

Book publishers have finally found their new Harry Potter to sell what children’s literature pedlars call “a f#$kton of books”: 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama. In fact, they started publishing the books before he was even elected.
So far, they’ve been biographies, including:
To put this in perspective, the linked article only mentions one book about John McCain, and his daughter wrote it. (Nepotism?)
Of course, once kids are tired of the biographical route, we’re sure some more interesting books will follow this refreshing new character.
OK, so it turns out that little Caylee Anthony may not have disappeared so much as been murdered by her mother, according to reports.
Cue the moral outrage from the masses.
Yes, folks on the Internet, we get it: killing kids is bad. But what if it’s your kid? Are you going to let an entire community of people who can’t use the correct version of “there, their or they’re” tell you to raise–or not raise–your kid?
What if you know your kid is evil? (For the sake of argument, you went to a fortune teller.) Because Caylee was taken from us so young, we’ll never know if she was going to cure cancer or become the President of the United States or the next Hitler.
This blog exists on one principle: our parents brought us into the world, and they can take us back out. Let’s not go to crazy with reforming these child “murder” laws.
