Sarah Palin booed loudly at a Hockey game!

Isn’t it ironic? Don’t ya think? Alanis, is that you? Savor the sweet irony of America’s first Hockey Mom, Sarah Palin, getting booed lustily by hockey fans at a recent Philadelphia Flyers game. I just find this too hilarious considering how much she touts her hockey pedigree on the stump, using it as some quasi-qualification for her ability to tackle, nay check, the serious issues of the day. Apparently the fans don’t agree:

Politicians out and about in the unscripted real world - such a fertile formula for awkward gold.

Remember Mitt Romney’s uncomfortable attempt to connect with the urban youth:

Oh no he didn’t just say who let the dogs out? who? who?
Ah, unfortunately he did.

Chocolate News is Good News

The news these days is pretty much like a gnarled 15-car pile-up or two drunk people having sexual relations in public; it’s disturbing, disquieting - makes you squint, but still you can’t look away because deep down you need to know just how bad it is.
So, it’s with impeccable timing that David Alan Grier brings us some relief with “Chocolate News”, a satirical magazine-news show premiering on Comedy Central Oct. 15th. By the looks of it, and these clips, Comedy Central has another hit on their hands.

David Alan Grier should be president.
