25 Feb 2009Now that VL is past the attacks and back in action, we are super happy around here. So happy, that we want to share the joy and what better way to do so than with music? I thought this amazing piece of audiovisual work would put you in the dancing mood on this, the humpiest of days, Wednesday. Plug in your audífonos, turn your screen away from the boss’ view and get ready for Requiem.
Am I the only one who actually remembers this song and video?

Bush Street in San Francisco is one of my favorite thoroughfares — in spite of the name. In this, the dawn of the Obama age and the end of the Bush era, a few concerned San Franciscans thought it only fitting to change the name of that street to reflect our current political reality:
The San Francisco-based organization Concerned Republicans Assaulting Posterity (C.R.A.P.) is claiming full and complete responsibility for the street sign changing of Bush Street to Obama Street the morning of Tuesday, January 20. A small but mighty group of about 40 fairly intelligent individuals joined together Monday evening and distributed the signs amongst C.R.A.P. members and loyalists in an unusual moment of solidarity with Barack Obama supporters.The group began changing the signs shortly after midnight. “Even though at first we thought Bush Street was named for our beloved Bush family, we realized that wasn’t true after we did some reading,” said one shirtless and bearded group member, who called himself Molotov II. “We wanted to show people that even we and our world renown organization, vehement supporters of the Republican party — we believe 92 percent of all Democrats are dirty — we are all still Americans, just like Mexico said on 9/11.
Check out the video after the jump for “The Making of Obama Street”. There’s also a group on Flickr for photos of the urban transition.

20 Jan 2009Well I’m guessing Hillary isn’t too happy with this:
Did you see how red Joe Biden got? Talk about loose lips sink ships.
Jill Biden said on the Oprah show that she wanted her husband to be vice president instead of secretary of state, chiefly because it would involve less travel.“If you’re secretary of state, you’ll be away, we’ll never see you, you know,” she said, describing how she and her husband had talked about it.
“I’ll see you at a state dinner once and awhile. But I said, if you are vice president, the entire family, because they worked so hard for the election, they can be involved. They can come to our home. They can go to events, they can be with us all the time. And that’s what’s important to us,” she said.
Biden, seated at his wife’s side, looked sheepish and tried to shush his wife after she made the remark.
So the scenario looks like it played out like this: Obama asked Biden which job he wanted, and Hillary got sloppy seconds. Damn.

3 Nov 2008It’s no surprise/secret that la Mala is no big fan of la Sarah Palin pero, you can’t help but feel a little bad for her as she gets tricked into thinking she’s speaking to French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

3 Nov 2008With just one day before election day (AHHHHHH!), this one goes out to all the undecided white women voters, and before you all start screaming about how racist I am for saying “white women voters”, I’m just quoting the hottest new boy band, Boybama.
