Politicians love it, the MSM (mainstream media) loves it, and apparently the general public loves it. So, what is the most overused and clichéd political term in the last few decades? The suffix “-gate”. For some reason every single new political scandal, no matter how big or small, needs to be renamed by the MSM [...]

Keith Olbermann’s Special Comment on 9/11
September 11th, 2008 
Evan Nothing I can say can possibly prepare you for what Olbermann had to say during last night’s Countdown, so just watch it for yourself. digg_url = ‘http://www.primakow.net/evan/politics/keith-olbermanns-special-comment-on-911/’;
Daily Show Puts McSame & The RNC In Their Place
September 6th, 2008 Evan digg_url = ‘http://www.primakow.net/evan/politics/daily-show-puts-mcsame-the-rnc-in-their-place/’; My wife and I were quite literally laughing out loud through this entire segment. There’s nothing I can say that would properly set up this clip from last night’s Daily Show, so just watch it. That not enough for you? How about an encore with the Daily Show’s version of McCain’s biography:
5 Reasons Sarah Palin is a Horrible Choice for VP
September 1st, 2008 Evan Back in the late 90′s when she was elected Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, she was almost recalled because shortly after entering office, she fired the Police Chief and Library Director for not supporting her in her 1996 race for Mayor. She didn’t even have the Republican courtesy to deny and lie: Her official reason for [...]
Welcome, Rich White Oligarchs!
August 26th, 2008 Evan digg_url = ‘http://www.primakow.net/evan/politics/welcome-rich-white-oligarchs/’; If you’re flying in to my former residence of Minneapolis (or, I suppose, St. Paul), you may notice a large billboard off of I-494 when leaving the airport. It is of the larger-than-life John Stewart along with the rest of his Daily Show crew welcoming Republicans to the Republican National Convention. Want [...]
Who’s the real elitist?
August 21st, 2008 Evan To be fair to McCain, if I had that many homes worth that much money, I wouldn’t be able to comprehend what is going on in today’s housing market either.
McCain Backstabs the Green Bay Packers
July 16th, 2008 Evan If you’ve ever heard John McCain talk about his time in a POW camp in Vietnam, or read his 1999 book, Faith of My Fathers, you’re likely aware of a story in which McCain tells of being interrogated and in lieu of naming his actual squadron mates he lists the defensive line of the Green [...]
I’m Voting Republican
June 16th, 2008 Evan Just kidding, don’t worry. That’s just the name of this awesome new video you should spend the next three minutes of your life watching:
McCain’s Recent Ad on Accountability
May 29th, 2008 Evan digg_url = ‘http://www.primakow.net/evan/politics/mccains-recent-ad-on-accountability/’; Most of the following McCain ad is garbage that you can ignore, but watch extremely closely at about the 25 second mark and try to identify the shirt that the woman shaking John McCain’s hand is wearing. Did you catch it? If you did, you’re probably chuckling to yourself right now if [...]
Bush’s Real Reason to Visit Israel
May 15th, 2008 Evan The President is currently in Israel. In part, he is there to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the State of Israel, but in part he is there to help along the Middle East peace process between Israel and the Palestinians. I have no issues with anyone visiting there for either of those reasons, but his [...]
