John McCain Nominates Cindy McCain for Topless 'Miss Buffalo Chip'!

BY TAYLOR MARSH video via Wonkette "... I told her, with a little luck, she could be the only woman ever to serve as both the first lady and Miss Buffalo Chip." - John McCain Finally, McCain’s got a message. Gangbanger bikers for Mack! ...and it even comes with video. No wonder John McCain is against equal pay for women and fights against upholding our civil rights. Now it all makes sense. Just what America’s always wanted. A potential first lady in a topless contest. Via CNN: As the senator...

July 2008 Buzz Roundup

July is supposed to be about barbecues, vacations, and leisure. Instead, high gas prices meant people were stuck at home (if they weren't foreclosed, that is), focusing on money savings, dark knights, and celebrity babies. Here are a few items that blew through Search this month. Tossing Oil and Money into the WindSo for an 80-year-old guy, oilman T. Boone Pickens's windy talk about energy resources moved quickly (+67,360%) up the Search charts. His Pickens Plan aims to wean America off foreign ...

Miss New York is "Real"

The Brooklyn Paper takes an awkwardly close look at Miss New York's "most recognizable assets," and declares, "They're spectacular — and they're real." 22-year-old Leigh-Taylor Smith won the title of Miss Brooklyn, somewhat controversially, before donning the Miss New York crown. She'll be competing for the Miss America title in January, but before that happens she cleared up any rumors that she had been surgically enhanced. One Brooklyn Paper reader said he still had his doubts, and that "the...

Sleeping With the Enemy: The Retirement of Special Agent Bill Kowalski

By Debbie Schlussel This past Friday, the FBI celebrated its 100th birthday. As I noted then, it's not cause for celebration. This once great law enforcement agency is now a shell of what it once was and is composed mostly of politically-correct Islamopandering bureaucrats. One of those Islamopanderers, Michigan FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge William Kowalski, is retiring on Friday. But it's long overdue. I've followed Kowalski since 9/11, and the brown on the tip of his nose is mixed wit...

Topless "Showgirls" Star ls MTV's New Self-Esteem Teacher for Girls; Far From Miss Barbara's Dance Center

By Debbie Schlussel Is it just me . . . or is there something just a little bit wrong about having a semi-porn star teaching adolescent girls self esteem? Remember Elizabeth Berkley? The woman who is most famous for playing a stripper in soft-core porn is MTV's new self-esteem coach for your teen girls. No joke. In case you're not familiar, Berkley is the "Saved By the Bell" star who didn't want to end up as unfamous and loser-esque as her co-star "Screech" a/k/a Dustin Diamond (porn hasn't work...

Christian Goals, Super Bowls, Swimming Holes, & Switching Roles

Hold onto your hats...I sense a boycott's a brewin'! Yes, the American Family Association better step up and call upon outraged Americans to stand up support family values. Why, you ask? Well, because an appeals court has just overturned the $550,000 fine levied against CBS for forcing America's unsuspecting families to witness a traumatizing frame or two of Janet Jackson's almost fully exposed breast. In a decision that clears CBS of any wrongdoing for airing the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show ...

Miss Brooklyn Wins Miss New York

Earlier this year Leigh-Taylor Smith was crowned Miss Brooklyn, despite being from Manhattan (via Virginia). Now Newsday reports that the southern belle has become Miss New York, with a chance at the Miss America title and tiara come January. Executive director of Miss New York, Paul Brown, said that Smith qualified since she has lived in New York for a year (she moved here after graduation from the University of Virginia). She clinched the title last night with her "pretty face" and "toned body...

swing vote and the power of costner

There's a new giant billboard for a Kevin Costner film right at the 80/101 interchange in SF, the same spot I saw the legendary poster for the Costner-Kutcher Coast Guard buddy movie The Guardian. This must be a prime spot for Costner advertising, probably because bumper-to-bumper traffic reminds people of The Postman. I try to keep abreast of all the latest Costnerian developments. I own (and am right now wearing) a t-shirt for Costner's band, Modern West. I re-watched Robin Hood: Prince of Thi...
