Storage Firm Shakes Up Pro-Lifers

Over the last year, I’ve written a couple of times about Manhattan Mini-Storage’s billboard campaigns, which comment amusingly on a broad range of social and pop culture issues, ranging from the government’s wiretapping to Paris Hilton and the Queer Eye guys. Their latest series, which started a few months ago, is beginning to cause a lot of upset among pro-lifers, …

MoveOn.Org: Dick Cheney Was Right

Left-wing activists MoveOn.org are circulating this 1994 Dick Cheney interview in which he correctly predicts the quagmire of a potential invasion of Iraq. Listen to our prescient VP play Nostradamus, predicting exactly what DID happen.

Morning View – 777 Third Avenue

The only reason I include such a blah-looking building as 777 Third in the Morning View series is because it is the home of Grey Group, the massive advertising agency conglomerate. Mediacom Worldwide, one of Grey’s buying agencies, is also at 777 Third.

Clinton: You Are Invisible To The President

Hillary Clinton launched her first television commercial this week, in which she declares that soldiers, single moms, and the uninsured are “invisible” to the president. The White House immediately issued a strong criticism, calling Clinton’s ad “absurd”, “outrageous” and “unconscionable.” Clinton turned around and put their complaints right up on her campaign site. Good for her.

My Back Was Gotten

I know I should thank a lot of you folks for rushing over to Baptists For Brownback yesterday to defend me on their demand that I be arrested and JMG deleted. But you do know that the site is satire, right? Right? Their post is pushing 600 comments now and the authors are keeping the joke running. I’d be exhausted …
