How has this been on YouTube for a week without my knowledge? The guy's argument boils down to a few points:

(1) Obama wants to ban flavored dips
(2) Flavored dips are good
(3) Therefore, Obama is gay

But that's not all. He proceeds to

- compare Obama to a monkey, before postulating what might happen if a person gave a monkey a flavored dip.
- defend his right to say racial slurs, on the basis that he's not a Nazi
- argue in favor of legal prostitution
- state that Obama is not an American, but IS a Jew (!)
- salute the Confederate flag because, and I quote, "I'm a true fucking American."

Okay, sure, not all his arguments are all that compelling, but delivering them while pausing frequently to spit in a small plastic container? That is one dynamite rhetorical technique. I'm pretty sure William Jennings Bryant did the same during his most celebrated oratories.

Hang on, there's something wrong with my calculator. I'm adding Lenin to Stalin, then dividing that by Hitler added to Castro, but it keeps coming out as comedian Louie Anderson, not Obama...That can't be right...

This is clearly one of the most ludicrous propaganda videos I've ever seen on YouTube. To dissect its silliness thoroughly would take 20 blog posts.

But my favorite part was this:

"The battle started at the Alamo comes to Washington DC"

So Glenn Beck went to Washington to ask for Texas' independence from Mexico? He needn't have bothered.

You know what, maybe I'm wrong...Maybe he's referring to the theft of Pee Wee Herman's bike, which as we all know, was thought to be hidden in the Alamo's basement. Obama really ought to give it back. Frances had no right to take it.

Shira's in New York for the VMA's...

But fear not! My guest co-host this week is Bibliotech creator, author and Mahalo CTO Mark Jeffrey. Next week, we've got a very special show planned with some other guests, and then look for the return of Shira later this month!

Another brilliant episode from Zach Galifianakis. Brought to you by "Need for Speed: Shift."

This episode features probably the single meanest segment aimed at an individual YouTuber we've ever done. I mean, Jake Walmsley is definitely crying out for some negative attention, but still...I may have gone too far. Even Maria Sansone doesn't usually have to deal with this much of my wrath.

Gonna be tough...I mean, the Federal Commission of T-Pain signed off on this one. PLUS you get the return of Katie Couric. But these just keep getting better, so I'll have to hold out hope.
