Yeah yeah yeah, It’s all very complicated.  I think I want Obama to win personally, but after a mere 219 years of all-white presidents, I’m not holding out that much hope. So as I can’t vote (what, being a British citizen and all), I’m forced to point and laugh from afar. I could join the ‘Brits for Obama‘ facebook group I suppose, but lets face it; the guy doesn’t need someone like me supporting him from over the pond.

This video makes all the salient points and stars McLovin (from Superbad) and professional Steven Colbert impersonator Ed Helms. I suddenly feel enlightened since it’s been explained so firmly and passionately.

Do you ever ask yourself; what would it be like if they crossed tired old internet ‘humour’ with right-wing US politics? The answer is this: a political campaign advert from Republican hopeful Mike Huckabee and old, bad action-film star Chuck Norris. Embarrassing?. Check. Unhelpful to the political discourse? Check. Hopefully a final nail in this Chuck Norris joke facebook-app, e-mail F.w., old-meme bollocks? Doubt it. Fingers crossed though. It will be interesting to see if important issues like border control are really the best place for Chuck Norris jokes.

Not me. And no, not that Obama girl. I keep meaning to write my take on the Facebook phenomena. When I do; this is definitely going to get a mention. Apparently on Caroline Giuliani’s (daughter of terrorism-obsessed mega-bore Rudy Giuliani) Facebook profile, she’s backing Barack Obama. This has to be pretty embarrassing for the Republican candidate. Kids ‘eh!? I guess even she got fed up of him going on about 9/11.
