Sara Palin

Most newspapers in the country are endorsing Obama for the upcoming election. It must be hard for McCain and Palin, especially for Palin that reads them all.

Obama
Barack Obama attracted 100,000 people at a Saturday rally in Saint Louis, his biggest crowd ever at a U.S. event. Unfortunately for Obama, most of the attendees went to see if Joe the plumber would show up again.

A study says that stress from the economic crisis is affecting pets. The stress comes from the constant fight with their owners over the pet food.

Robocalls
John McCain’s robocalls against Obama have received bipartisan condemnation. To be fair with McCain, he’s not the only candidate making phone calls. Apparently, Ralph Nader has been calling homes all over the country, not to attack anybody, just to make money on the side as a telermarketer.

Cats

Dogs

In the news
Police in Michigan arrested a man at a car wash for engaging in sexual acts with the vacuum. It wouldn’t have been considered prostitution, but the guy paid the quarter to activate the machine.
