"What the Hell's Going On?" It's a simple yet completely fair question given all that's happened over the last nine years. But still, there is almost no unified consensus to this question in the U.S. Try asking friends and family. Feel free to present it as a party game....

If you're voting for McCain and you've clicked to read this I promise this will be pain free and fast. First off, I respect you for voting tomorrow. Right away you've set yourself above the apathetic millions and clearly you care about this country.

Before you punch,...

Presidential candidate John McCain and running mate Sarah Palin attempted to manage the surprise endorsement of Barack Obama by Senator John McCain this past Thursday. McCain was dismissive of his 100% endorsement and even took a few shots at himself after the announcement.

"When all is said and...

At last, a Democratic candidate I actually want to have a beer with. I know this idiotic standard is more marketing ad agency speak than actual criteria for elected office but it is a pleasant surprise from the usually tone deaf to the real world Dems. Not only do I...

Tonight was an easy game plan for Obama; don't accidentally say the "C" word and don't grow a beard at the last second and talk about banning kite flying. Because of a slew of frankly insane emails that have circled this country for the past few months claiming that...

Debate time is approaching and it's gonna be juicy. When was the last presidential debate where there were concerns about one of the candidates even showing up? I wouldn't be surprised if Obama was stood up and then they cut to a feed of McCain being interviewed by Katie Couric....

This is episode two of McCain's Roommates from Chad Carter, Seth Morris and Jake Syzmanski. Such a simple yet funny idea.

"Stop saying that!" my wife says to me. But this is not a high school football game and I'm not a cheerleader with a bad attitude. This is an election and as things stand now, we're gonna frickin' lose this thing. Obama and McCain at best are even in the...

Our team at Funny or Die came up with this gem and I wanted to share. I like sharing... Do you? On second thought don't answer that.

Inspired by the news that the GOP's new 2008 slogan was the same one used for the anti-depressant Effexor, I made this video:

America is a country that prides itself on being able to identify a "straight shooter" or "the genuine article" when it comes to our leaders. As a nation we can "feel it in our gut" when someone is giving us a bum steer. We have a free press ("Free press"...

It didn't make sense. A politician responding to a TV news scandal during an election and he's not on the attack or the defensive. Instead he's asking us to look at the forces that shape our feelings on race and understand them. My first reaction was to call DirecTV. Clearly...

Tucker Carlson said on his program last night that what I wrote in my Huff Post blog "Live From New York...Vote for Hillary!" was a "conspiracy theory." He claimed the idea that some Republicans are rooting for Hillary was "deranged."

First off, I didn't say all Republicans are...

Let's face it, the Republicans love Hillary Clinton. They quietly in their heart of hearts pine for her to win the Democratic nomination. The Republican Governor of Florida is rolling out the red carpet for a second primary which will favor Clinton. Pat Buchanan can't be quiet about how much...

We shot this short with Will Ferrell and Pearl McKay.

Today I was watching CNN Headline News as I was eating lunch and saw a quick piece (everything's quick on Headline News. It's "Headline" News, not "Insightful Details" News) on the scandal over the firing of the eight federal prosecutors for not being loyal enough to the Bush agenda....

A Newsweek poll last week showed that Bush has fallen to a 30 percent job approval rating. I know there are a lot of polls out there so that number is far from definitive, but still I was shocked to hear this. Honestly, I hadn't been paying attention and...

I'm out of practice dealing with good political news. It's been a bit of an overload these past two days. It's kind of like getting a letter from my doctor informing me that I can now suddenly windmill dunk a basketball. I almost hesitate to bring up the House and...

Amidst all of the understandable uproar over Mel Gibson's anti-Semitic statements while intoxicated during a DUI arrest this past week, I think one fact has been lost. Drunk or not drunk, the man was making an argument. In this day and age, where the argument has been so denigrated by...

"I told you so"s are way overrated. They feel good in the lead up but upon delivery you instantly realize there is still a huge amount of work to be done: "Ha! I told you this couch wouldn't fit through our apartment door after carrying it up four flights!" "Ohhh......
