Legendary Diva, Cher, All Out For Presidential Candidate

Forget music. When you hear Cher on the radio these days, it's all about politics. The legendary songstress has been hitting the radio campaign trail for Barack Obama. "I called radio stations in swing states like Indiana, Iowa and Florida to tell people to go out and vote," Cher said at last night's grand opening of Luau restaurant in Beverly Hills. "I wanted to call the states he needs the votes in most. It was interesting because the stations wanted to talk about music, and I wanted to talk about politics!"

“I have no idea if I was able to influence listeners, but I got the message that I was supposed to get across—to vote," she says. "I really think that Obama has a chance to be the president of his time. This is a very dangerous, very sad time for America, and I really think—I wouldn't say this if I didn't think it—I really think that he's the right person for the right time." ……And what if Obama loses to Sen. John McCain? "If you can't say something good about someone, you really shouldn't say anything at all," says Cher. "So what I can say is, if McCain is elected, the idea is so frightening to me, I really can't even bear to think about it."

James Bond Character For Obama and McCain

Agent 007 himself, Daniel Craig, is weighing in on which presidential candidate would make the better James Bond and which of their wives would make the better Bond girl! "Obama would be the better Bond because if he's true to his word, he'd be willing to quite literally look the enemy in the eye and go toe-to-toe with them," Craigs tells Parade magazine.

"McCain, because of his long service and experience, would probably be a better M," he adds, referring to Bond's boss played by Judi Dench. As for which First Lady hopeful, Michelle Obama or Cindy McCain, would make the better Bond Girl, 'The Quantum of Solace' star confesses: "That's much too dangerous a question."

But we've never been so inspired by one person."

A source says that Timberlake's mother, Lynn, helped him write his opening remarks. Noting that the next president's Supreme Court appointments could determine the future of legal abortions, Biel told the crowd, "Nobody should be able to say what you can do with your body." Joked Timberlake, "I give Jess the right to choose where we go to eat all the time. The funny thing is, what the woman chooses is usually right." A 21year-old college student who attended the rally, told the Review-Journal she was impressed Timberlake took time out to attend the rally."I really respect him for that," she said. "He obviously cares about this.

The police believe the thieves were trying to steal a solar panel from Sarah Hussein Obama's tin roof.Four people have been arrested and patrols increased around Alego-Kogello village, 60km (37 miles) from Kisumu. The Illinois senator is a local hero in his father's homeland, where a local beer has been named after him. Correspondents say bottles of Senator are now referred to as "Obama" in honour of the Democratic party presidential hopeful. The robbery occurred on Wednesday night, when thieves broke down the kitchen door.

"I only realized that something had gone wrong when I went to make breakfast in the morning. I did not hear anything in the night as it was raining,” Kenya's Daily Nation quotes Mrs Obama, 86, as saying. She said she now feared for her safety. "These are just people from around who think that Obama has been sending me a lot of money," she told the East African Standard paper.Area police commander Johnston Ipara said the robbers were unable to dismantle the panels and nothing was stolen. "There is now a 24-hour security patrol in the entire village to curb any further incidents," he told AFP news agency.

Obama's Spiritual Leader In sex Scandal

Reverend Jeremiah Wright was involved with this woman sexually which allegedly influenced her to lose her job and husband:
As we rememberm, Rev. Jeremiah Wright a
lmost wrecked Barack Obama’s presidential dreams, and now firebrand pastor Jeremiah Wright has helped destroy a Dallas church worker’s marriage - and her job. Elizabeth Payne, 37, said she had a steamy sexual affair with the controversial, racially divisive man of the cloth while she was an executive assistant at a church headed by a popular Wright protégé. “I was involved with Rev. Wright, and that’s why I lost my job and why my husband divorced me,” Payne said.

In April, Payne organized a series of Texas public appearances by Wright, 67. Weeks before, Obama had disavowed his preacher of 20 years after Wright’s anti-government rants came to light. “Liz was by Rev. Wright’s side day and night during those days,” a church source said. Payne’s husband, Fred Payne, 64, said he learned of the affair in late February, when he discovered e-mails between his wife and Wright. “There must have been about 80 of them, back and forth,” he said. “Wright said things like he was going to leave his wife for Elizabeth. I was downright mad about this bullshits,” said Fred, who said he is “in the oil and gas business,” belongs to a hunting club and makes his own bullets in his garage.

“People wouldn’t be happy to know that my wife was sleeping with a black man.” Elizabeth Payne said she has been banished by Haynes and the flock at Friendship-West.
“I’m not a member of the congregation anymore; I’m not even allowed on the premises,” she said. Wright became an embarrassment for Obama after videos of the preacher’s old sermons emerged. According to SMH, "women coming to the 'Reverend' to get saved and all he was giving her is some dick. Hypocrites, I tell ya. We are glad he went and sat his attention-seeking punk ass down and didn’t damage the Obama brand too much more."

Oprah Shuns Sarah Palin

Oprah Winfrey has issued a statement to TMZ that Republican VP candidate Sara Palin won't be on her show until after the election.

"The item in today's Drudge Report is categorically untrue. There has been absolutely no discussion about having Sarah Palin on my show. At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over" said Oprah.


After the election? Please that won't be relevant anymore. What can't Palin tell Oprah to take her show and shove it. For the record, Barack Obama has been on "Oprah" twice -n January, 2005 and again in October, 2006 before he announced his run for Whitehouse.

2008 Election Baby Mama Drama

In what appears to price for fame, a surprising revelation shows John McCain's running mate (here with here family pic), Alaska Gov. Sarah Plain’s 17-year-old unmarried daughter, Bristol, right, is five months pregnant. McCain's camp said the GOP presidential candidate knew about the pregnancy before he selected Palin.

McCain's aides said the pregnancy revelation was intended to quell rumors swirling on the Internet that Palin's infant son, Trig, is actually her daughter's. The Second picture shows Bristol holds her baby brother Friday as their mother is announced as McCain's running mate.

The news of Bristol's pregnancy comes just three days after Palin was introduced as McCain's vice presidential pick at a rally in Dayton, Ohio. She is the first Republican vice presidential candidate who is not a white man. She met McCain only once before the Arizona senator asked her to be his ruining mate.
However, McCain's opponent Barack Obama contends that this is a private matter and warns that any body in his campaign that make issue out of Palin's family drama would be fired.

Madonna Has Things for Black Men

Madonna seen here performing over the weekend for her 'Sticky and Sweet Tour' held at The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, and UK. And according to NY Daily News She is leaving concertgoers with a crystal-clear impression of her less than favorable opinion of the GOP's presumptive presidential nominee.
--
The News said: During the four-act show in Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, a video interlude showed images of destruction, global warming, Adolf Hitler,Zimbabwe's authoritarian President Robert Mugabe and - you guessed it - McCain. In another sequence that was shown later, the images were meant to be positive. Madonna showed pix of late Beatle John Lennon, former Vice President Al Gore, Mahatma Gandhi and presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama.
Her action got a prompt response from McCain's campaign. In a statement, Tucker Bounds, McCain's spokesman, slammed Madonna and labeled Obama as a kindred celebrity. "The comparisons are outrageous, unacceptable and crudely divisive all at the same time," he said. "It clearly shows that when it comes to supporting Barack Obama, his fellow worldwide celebrities refuse to consider any smear or attack off-limits."

It appears this Madonna' drama is another of her many affinities for dark skin men.

Halle Berry in Love with Obama


The actress Halle Berry has been seen many time lately wearing T-shirt with either Obama’s picture or name. By media count, at least, she has five of those different shirts. And some are wondering why this lady is so crazy about the presumptive president of United States. If people remember or look closely enough, they should realize that both Obama and Halle are mullatos (half-caste). Halle Berry deeply connected to Obama because they are of the same age group and both have or had black and Caucasian parents.

Paris Hilton - video- Ripped 'Old Papa John'

John McCain might have gotten himself in bad side of 'Pop Culture" when he compared his younger opponent, Obama, to Btitney Spear and Paris Hilton. Here Paris ridicules the 'old dog." And you know what, if you never liked Paris, you will like her now because this video makes the "spoilt hotel heiress" look gooood!

Yes, the media is in romance with presumptive president Barack Obama, Consequently, his republican opponent John McCain felt abandoned, so he went on offensive. In this ad below; he correlates Obama’s celebrity status to celebs like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. Obviously, Obama is taking all the headlines, while McCain is being forgotten.

He basically tired to portray Obama as deranged as Britney and as stupid as Paris. Then McCain camp manager indicated that Obama is irresponsible and frivolous. Well, Obama Camp had just saved money on response-ads. We should be waiting for Britney’s.
