“Pray for Obama: Psalm 109:8”
A nice sentiment? Maybe not. The psalm reads, “Let his days be few; and let another take his office.” Presidential criticism through witty slogans is nothing new.‘Good evening, live from the Berlin Wall’
I thought this would be an interesting tie in from Tulipe's earlier post. On the night of Nov. 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall — the stark, menacing symbol of the Cold War — came crashing down, suddenly and dramatically.27. The Quotations of Links of London
The humorous re-writing thus functions as what Hutcheon names "Parodic Satire" ("Tronie" 168), as Winterson challenges a whole way of life, intermingling a profusion of comic effects and intertextual referencesranging from Punch and Judy Shows and Dallas to irreverent allusions to the Romantic poets and botched quotations of their titles of poems. Some aspects of contemporary Western society which are criticized include materialism, capitalism, political and religious Links of London Bracelet, the power of the media, the S Charmwith physical appearance, narcissism, romantic love, illusions and irresponsible attitudes, disrespect for manual labor and emotions, and the importance given to the intellect. More generally and fundamentally, Winterson denounces all forms of tyranny - of totalitarianism, of fanaticism, of fundamentalism - all monologic discourse (R Charm), and all belief in a unique legitimating Truth.Who Wrote 'Dreams of My Father'?
Obama's ghostwriter fesses up! It’s the question tearing the nation apart: Who really wrote Barack Obama’s first book, "Dreams From My Father?" You see, only Obama-worshiping sheeple think that the president would have been capable of penning that memoir.Barack Obama Is Spock!
Just a light, fluff piece for Friday :) Nothing serious By Gary Thompson Philadelphia Daily News Daily News Film Critic Modern innovations inspired by the old "Star Trek" show: the cell phone, the flat-screen TV, and the Obama presidency. The latter occurred to me as I watched J.J. Abrams dandy new "Star Trek" movie, which arrives amid polls showing that 80 percent of Americans continue to find President Obama personally likable.Stephen Colbert goes "commando" in Iraq...
By CAMPBELL ROBERTSON Published: June 7, 2009 http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/08/arts/television/08colb.html?_r=1&scp=2&sq=stephen%20colbert&st=cse CAMP VICTORY, Iraq — It was Sunday night in Baghdad, and President Obama was ordering Gen. Ray Odierno, the commander of the American troops here, to shave Stephen Colbert’s head. (Not to give everything away, but the general is not as brutal with an electric razor as one would expect a bald man to be; Mr. Colbert’s hairdresser, on the other hand, has a merciless streak.) War, as things go, is a fairly unironic exercise.Stuff White People Like
