     In a move described as “ginormastounding” by perplexed Politico pundits, RNC head Remington Mike Steele announced that he would attempt to put crazed killer Phil Spector into the United States Senate as soon as possible (e.g., if Robert Byrd drops dead) to counterbalance the defection of “The Senator Formerly Known as a Republican” Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania to another party.
     “He’s his brother, right? and if he campaigns in Philly, he can call himself ‘Philly Phil’! sort of like ‘Flavor Flav’!!” explained the brilliant GOP chief, as fellow Gooper Rep. Michele Bachmann cheered him, “You STILL be da man!!” while some confused little boys admired her backwards baseball cap, legwarmers, and silver lame lamé disco clothing.
     Asked for comment about his new political career, Mr. Spector hummed a few notes of an old Ronettes song and then attempted to bite off the reporter’s ear with his gleaming five-inch fangs.

     In other entertainment-and-politics-related news, Barack Obama supporter and professional wrestler Hulk Hogan was spotted entering a jacuzzi at a tony Washington hotel–inspired by his adventures in putting tanning lotion on his own daughter Brooke??–, a jacuzzi already occupied by Meghan McCain, daughter of the Arizona senator. As a gawking spy from Gawker snidely noted to our news service, Mr. Hogan then “attempted some vigorous two-handed ‘interparty outreach’.”
     Our source further revealed that Hogan limped away from the pool, cursing, and that “Hogan had a daughter, but he may not be able to have any more children after this.”

     A spokesman for the President noted that even though what Ms. McCain did to Mr. Hogan would legally qualify as torture, the government would not prosecute her, as there are some things they just do not bother to prosecute.

     BRITAIN’S Got Talent star Susan Boyle has proved FIVE TIMES more popular on YouTube than US President Barack Obama.
     The meek Scots singer’s sensational telly audition has now been watched by 100MILLION fans worldwide on the video website.

     “Boylism”!!

     …Hugo Chavez, Venezuela’s socialist president who called former President George W. Bush a “devil,” walked over and introduced himself to Obama before the U.S. president spoke. Chavez told Obama he wants to be his “friend,” Venezuela’s Information and Communications Ministry said in a statement.
     …criticism of the U.S. also didn’t appear to ruffle Clinton, who is attending the summit. When asked about Ortega’s speech, the secretary of state smiled and alluded to the post- speech entertainment.
     “I thought the cultural performance was fabulous,” she said.

     “I thought the cultural performance was fabulous”. Isn’t one definition of “diplomacy”, “deliberately missing the point”?

Looks like O is captaining the ship of state fairly well at this moment.

     One actually thought of this title oneself several days ago, but Dave Abromowitz got it in print first, cf. Why is this President Different from All Other Presidents?, on Obama’s first-ever-in-the-White House Passover seder. Don’t pass over this exciting story.
