The video department at Slate has done a great deed

I'm so proud of the people I know. A few weeks back, my boy Derrick Ashong held it down for Obama and yesterday fellow NYC comedian Lee Camp straight up punked Fox News. Lee and I have worked together for countless shows as part of Laughing Liberally. The entire clip is three minutes. Watch the entire thing. It's so worth it.
You can catch Lee all month on Comedy Central's Fresh Debate 08 series of clips.
A more popular version of Lee's Fox News clip is available here, and you can Digg it here, but I wanted to provide the entire segment so you could see just how bold his question was. He laid in the cut and then BAM!

I know politicians constantly exploit photo ops for their own purposes, but a friend told me about this awkward moment at Clinton's El Paso rally Tuesday night, and I had to share it. I feel bad for the little boy. See how they quickly escort him out of there!
I'm not saying other candidates don't do it. I'm just saying this looks damn ridiculous. She should have upped the ante, have the lil youngin wack an Obama pinata while he's up there.
Straight from the Department of Adding Insult To Injury,
Earlier today, the Clinton campaign admitted that she had written her campaign a check for $5M in the month of January, yes the month in which Obama cleared $32M. I don't even want to think of where that loot came from.
On top of this embarrassing news, Obama has raised nearly $6M SINCE THE SUPER TUESDAY POLLS CLOSED YESTERDAY.
This will be an sad headline for HRC tomorrow.
Can I just say this again real quick?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Then again, Jesse Jackson ran a great campaign in 1984 and 1988.
C-Span is the greatest. I had it on the background and caught Mike Huckabee absolutely eviscerating Mitt Romney over Romney's suggestion that Huckabee drop out. Here's a quote:
"This old Arkansas boy is not for sale. He doesn't have enough money to buy me. I'm not some troubled company that he can buy, sell off the assets and send us home."
Everyone seems to really hate Mitt Romney. I almost feel bad for the man.
Check this video. It's so brutal.
Well that's very cool. I was featured for joke of the week with one of my Obama jokes. Pick it up at newsstands today!By the way, if you don't yet support Obama, holla. I'm happy to spend mad time convincing you. That, or you can just read my blog over the past month and come to the appropriate conclusion.
Why I love YouTube.
This is brilliant
I'm not sure how I missed this enormous WaPo special.
Has anyone been following it?
Has anyone purchased the book released this past summer?
Would love to know your thoughts if you have.
I discovered it today when I saw this article by fellow comic Jordan Carlos (you may recall him as Colber's "black friend") on being a black comedian and actor.
In an unexpected turn which is sure to make the history books, the unlikely campaign of Not-Clinton swept to commanding victory over Senator Hillary Clinton in yesterday's Iowa Caucuses. With all precincts reporting, Not-Clinton held 71% of the vote, more than double the 29% garnered by the former First Lady.
If that's her being fired up, I'd hate to see what apathetic looked like. Oh, and give the man his slogan back! :)
