I thought the NFL one just about raised the bar for this series, but I’ve gotta admit, hearing Obama say, “Listen ladies, romance is deception. Romance is a parody. It’s how we get you cuddly and naughty naughty and not questioning men more than a two nights window” just about killed me. [via dangerousminds]

Obama Outlines Gun Control Plans
by James Furbush on January 16, 2013
“What’s more important? Doing whatever it takes to get an A grade … or giving the American parents the peace of mind when they drop their children off for first grade?” — President Obama, in announcing his plan to curb gun violence in America. More: Here is the White House proposals, you can watch the [...]
How the Nerds Helped the Nerdiest President Get Reelected
by James Furbush on November 21, 2012
I adore everything about Alexis Madrigal’s story on the programmers and developers who built the software that helped get Obama reelected so much that I’m just going to employ you to read it. How can you not with grafs like this: “When Obama campaign chief Jim Messina signed off on hiring [Harper] Reed, he told [...]

A Few Post-Election Tidbits and That’s It
by James Furbush on November 7, 2012
Just a few post-election things that we felt was worth rounding up and then that’s it. We promise. No more election shit until the 2014 midterms. Here’s Andrew Sullivan’s take on the election: It’s been a long long slog these past five years of backing the skinny guy with the funny name. But this election, to [...]
Obama’s Got 99 Problems but Guess Who’s Not One?
by James Furbush on September 28, 2012
Diran Lyons’ created this clever political satire with the president in the role of Jay-Z and Mittens playing the role of the pesky cop. This is a perfect way to head into the weekend, as both candidates get viciously taken down a notch. Expertly done by Lyons. Seriously, this is top quality work. I’ve watched [...]
The Democrats’ Reagan
by James Furbush on September 24, 2012
Conservative blogger Andrew Sullivan continues his man-crush on the president with a look at how a second Obama term could be a transformative one. It’s funny, but I’m not sure that Obama will become the Democrats’ Reagan — it’s clear that honor goes to Bill Clinton, who becomes more beloved and sainted with each passing [...]
The President and Vice Pres Get Their Grove On
by James Furbush on September 10, 2012
A tale of two photos for the POTUS and Vice POTUS over the weekend. Barack Obama stopped by Big Apple Pizza in Ft. Pierce, Fla. on Sunday, where owner Scott Van Duzer wrapped Barry into a manly bear hug. Secret Service was probably not amused. Across the country in Ohio, Joe Biden did his best [...]
Bill Clinton’s Full DNC Speech
by James Furbush on September 6, 2012
It was, by all accounts, a masterful speech by a politician at the top of his game. Take 60 minutes to watch this speech. It was better than any speech given at the Republican National Convention because it was specifically wonky, a strong rebuttal to the GOP narrative, radiated warmth, and defended Obama’s last four [...]
