Watch this hilarious video where Fox News host Gregg Jarrett interviews PBS’s Bonnie Erbe. Erbe keeps trying to talk about a real news story — the war between Russia and Georgia — but Jarrett keeps totally ignoring her and talking about John Edwards and his 2006 affair, as if Erbe doesn’t exist. When Erbe says “We […]
McCain and Obama will make their first joint general election campaign appearance on August 16 at a forum at the Saddleback Church in Orange County, CA, where they will be participating in a discussion of “compassion and leadership”. Why is this ironic? Because top right-wing evangelical leaders (including Mike Huckabee) are so pissed off about this that they […]
John McCain and Barack Obama once opposed offshore drilling, but that was a simpler time when gas was only $3.69 a gallon.
“I don’t know if you noticed this. Last week, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi turned the lights out on Congress while the Republicans were talking. She killed the microphones and turned the lights off. Yeah, yeah. The Republicans called this outrageous, except, of course, for Senator Larry Craig, who called it romantic.” -Jay Leno “It’s being […]
Just as McCain is learning how to manipulate the Internet by rewarding followers for carpet bombing political blogs, Obama seems to be getting the hang of using innuendo in press releases. Kinda like those negative ads that fuel racial fears by juxtaposing a black political candidate with a sexy young white woman. Hot on the heels of […]
Former presidential candidate John Edwards today admitted to having an affair in 2006. From the Chicago Tribune: John Edwards’ revelations today – that he had an affair while his wife battled cancer – break sharply from the family-man image the former senator has cultivated his entire political career.

“Oh, you hear about this? Here you go. Paris Hilton’s mother is very upset because John McCain has put Paris in his campaign video. You know about this? He put Paris in his campaign video, and she’s furious. Isn’t that amazing? Of all the videos Paris Hilton has been in, this is the one mom’s […]
It must be pretty frustrating when all your attacks start to backfire. How would you like to be one-upped by Paris Hilton? Or forced to admit that maybe keeping your tires properly inflated isn’t such a bad idea after all. So you’d think the McCain campaign would have thought twice before releasing a campaign ad […]

UPDATE: In One Ear… Out the Other hilariously compares this video to a similar video about former VP Dan Quayle. Twins separated at birth?
It isn’t often that irony hits this close to home, but the revelations in the Washington Post that McCain’s campaign is giving out prizes to people who spam political blogs explains some strange things that have been happening to PoliticalIrony.com over the last month. You can see it for yourself, on McCain’s official site. They even […]
