Now that he's the Commander-in-Chief, Obama needs to step it up, and dress the part. It's time he pimps himself out Wii Rock Band style. Would Elvis or Bono ever wear straight khakis?

WASHINGTON - A photo appearing on the internet of Senator Barack Obama's Chrysler 300 without a giant, yellow, magnetic "I Support The Troops!" ribbon...

Speculation about Hillary Clinton's successor in the Senate will soon be moot, but the debate about America's political dynasties is hopefully just starting.

Obama's vacation ends like many of ours have over the years. With pleasant memories behind and significant problems ahead.

2009 Prediction: There will be a growing movement in the US to follow in the steps of England, and that is to restrict, discourage, or even ban cell phones in restaurants.

If Jimmy Carter does bestow his coveted superdelegate vote on Obama, and if Obama ends up winning the nomination, Carter will have had the last word in a long quarrel.

Many people are talking about what VP choices await Barack Obama, but let's look one step further to Obama's Cabinet and whom he would put in charge of different areas of our country.

Eight years ago the criticism today being aimed at Caroline Kennedy was leveled at Hillary Clinton. Her experience didn't count, she was being presumptuous, and she needed to wait her turn.

An international stabilization force may well be what is needed in Somalia, but the tough groundwork will have to be laid first. And for this, the Somali people must be on board.

In a story about potential vice presidential picks, the AP referred to Joe Lieberman as "the Democratic vice presidential prick in 2000."

Happy New Year 2009!
Because I've always felt it is more amusing to make new year's resolutions that others should follow, today's Friday Talking Poin...

Gone are the days when independent voting was the province of the "conservative white male." It's estimated that more than 20% of the independents who voted for Obama are people of color.

Ms. Kennedy, we don't know. We want to find out (preferably now) what qualifies you to be in the Senate as opposed to, say, a public servant at a lower level.

Obama is just a lot of promises and hope that could very well end up short when pitted against John McCain next Election Day.

Defamation is a tool of the anti-choice establishment -- the "Susan B. Anthony List" claims Clinton, as Secretary of State, will "promote abortion" around the world.

Fabulous piece darling. I loved every word, except that word: "Palin". Ew.
You truly reinforced the wisdom of my decision to stay extremely drunk for the whole of 2008. Clearly the best possible response to our last Annum Horibblis.
Cheers darling.
Very funny from a very unfunny year. If you're not laughing...you're crying. Let's hope 2009 gives Chez less material to work with.
I disagree with the clothing bit, but otherwise you hit the nail on the head with Sarah Palin.
Good God. It's been two months since the election and i still can't believe what all of that was about.
When McCain gave his concession speech, and the camera panned to Palin, my excitement for Barack Obama was interrupted by, "Sweet Jesus! You are no longer politically relevant!!!"
I shudder at the thought that she was so close to the second highest office in the most powerful country in the world. Had McCain won,. the US would have been an even bigger embarassment, and that's saying a lot.
Oh Dear Lord, I thought I was alone in my utter contempt for all things Nancy Grace. Hallelujah, I am not! When she was on CourtTV I used to pray that Rikki Klieman would jump over the desk and start wailing on her. Alas, instead she was promoted to prime time. She is Bill O'Reilly after gender reassignment surgery.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for cheering up a pretty miserable week.
