While You Were Sleeping: McCain Checked Palin Out Again

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Ryan O'Neal and his son are trying to show Tatum how it's done: they were just arrested for possession of meth. Redmond, the son, was on probation for another drug-related arrest.

Gary Coleman was charged with reckless driving in the most bizarre celebrity accident we've ever heard of.

Don't miss Brad Pitt's response to a reporters question on why he donated $100,000 to the gay marriage fight in California:

"Because no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn't harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8," Pitt said Wednesday.

Brad Pitt also expressed surprise that more people in the entertainment industry aren't making donations to keep gay marriage legal. "Especially George Clooney," Pitt said. "Now, that guy should be driving up to city hall with a dump truck full of cash. I'm not implying anything, but 'dedicated bachelor'? That's about as convincing as marrying Katie Holmes."

One of our favorite books of poetry has been turned into... a nude play?

PETA invaded Pittsburgh, with banners over their naked bodies that read: "Turn Your Back On Burberry."

And John McCain checked out Sarah Palin's ass... again.

Y'know, pointing out the fact that Sarah Palin has an ass worth checking out, and that 187-year-old John McCain is interested in checking it out, in no way discourages anybody from voting Republican.

I'm just sayin'...

He's also not actually looking at her ass, but it's still funny.
