The Stuff I didn't Get To -- 8/15/08

McCain gives thumbs up
John McCain, shown inventing the 'thumbs up' gesture


-Headline of the day-
"McCain falsely takes credit for ‘creating’ Do Not Call list."

John McCain finally got around to releasing his first policy paper on technology and it turns out that everyone on Earth was wrong about the "do not call" list that bars telemarketers from calling you. See, where everyone else believes the list was first announced in 2001, John McCain claims credit in having "led in creating" the list in 2003.

Update your official party history books, comrades. (Think Progress)


-Shocking revelation from the GOP!-
Barack Hussein Obama has nipples -- just like a girl!

Obama took off his shirt and went body surfing in Hawaii, the GOP decided to attack him for it.

If you ever needed proof that Republicans got nuthin', there ya go. (Yglesias)


-Bonus HotD-
"It's WrestleMania: Swede gets his mankini in a knot and throws back bronze medal."

Swedish Greco-Roman wrestler Ara Abrahamian is a poor sport. A sore loser. A big Swedish wussypants girly-man crybaby. Believing that a ruling by judges in favor of the US was "political," Abrahamian asserts he was robbed of the gold and awarded a mere bronze. At the medal ceremony, he made a scene, threw the medal to the ground, and stormed off in a huff, using his Olympian strength to slam a door behind him.

How big an ego would you have to have for the bronze to be an insult? Geez, if I won the bronze in anything, I wouldn't get invited to parties anymore. People would refer to me as "that big asshole who won't shut the hell up about the time he won a bronze medal."

If you got robbed, you got robbed. Happens all the time, bad calls are part of the game. Grow up and take it like a big Swedish-Armenian Greco-Roman wrestling man. (Guardian)
