Cryptozoology and The Skewer

Hey - it's not all fuddy-duddy politics here at The Skewer. Biologists discovered a wide variety of previously unknown biological species in the Eastern Himalayas:

Not Yeti on the List

Here's a shot of the pick of the bunch, a flying tree frog!

How to Dress for an Interview

Brought to you by Skewer fave Sarah Palin. Hey, hey...here at The Skewer, we think that those so called "respectable" news organizations lambaste Mrs. Palin a little too much. But the question remains: which smells fishier: that thing she's holding, or her reasons for resigning?

Putin Melts Hearts, Siberian Winter

Well, it's summer in Siberia. Nevertheless, Vlad continues his unbelievable run of awesomeness on the all new Skewer. The article, from a London newspaper, is a must-read:

Is There Anything Vlad Putin Can't Do?

Michelle Obama is Proud of Her Country

Does Barry pay the taxes he enacted on his own packs of lung darts?
Does Barry's status as a smoker render him ineligible for private health care coverage?
Would Barry at least have to pay higher premiums for his health insurance, because he's a smoker, if he didn't have the single greatest health plan in the world as POTUS?
How does a single-payer, government health care program treat current and/or former smokers?

Top 10: Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri

"On Al Jaz--ee-rah today I heard Dr. Ayman say
There's a jihad against infidels galore!
And he know that isn't chill, so he's hiding in the hills
In a bunker or a shelter, he's Osama's little helper"

From Osama's Little Helper (to the tune of the Rolling Stones' Mother's Little Helper), by The Skewer, circa 2002

Putin Tops Self

Not for nothing did Russian strongman Vlad Putin rank highly on The Skewer's list of top 10 world leaders. Check out his latest exploit:

Next for Putin: Fix Health Care?

For his next feat, Putin will go five rounds in the octagon with UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar. Either that, or he will force Barry into submission in an battle of "one, two, three, four, I declare a thumb war."

You Knew This Guy Would Make the List

This was Jesse's face after he learned his mic was open when he said he wanted to "cut (Barry's) nuts off..."

The Skewer Top 10 Continues...

Don't tease Vlad Putin about his man-boobs. Dude will karate chop the dickens out of you. And then he'll assign someone to follow you whenever you leave your house.

Pucker Up, Princess

That's an actual picture of our Speaker of the House. Congrats, Princess Pelosi, you've made The Skewer's list of top 10 skewerable politicians!

Skewer Top 10: Mr. Ahmadinejad

His eyes aren't the only thing that are crazy.

Dem Rep: Why Bother Reading?

Do I even need to attach some kind of inane quip here?

You Can't Make This Stuff Up

I do not know much about House Judiciary Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich). Sir, sometimes reading the bill actually helps you to understand the laws you're about to impose on the rest of us.

Let Them Eat Pork!

Queen Nancy, as the writer dubs her in the article, can't close her eyes because of all the Botox injections, but that doesn't mean she's not blind to her critics:

If They Talk About Me, Doesn't That Mean They Like Me?

Congrats, Madam Speaker. You just made The Skewer's list of top 10 politicians.

The Skewer Loves Joe Biden

O My People, the great Joe Biden has done it again!:

Biden Opens Mouth, Inserts Shaq's Shoe

More often than not, this guy unleashes absolute gems when he opens his mouth. Ironically, he's viewed as a black sheep and a "crazy old uncle" by both the mainstream media and President Obama himself. Actually, Biden is one of the most candid and refreshing people in politics today. Perhaps no other person in the world, with such a platform as his, would have the gumption to say things like this about Obama's would-be comrades in mother Russia.

Keep it up, Joe. The Skewer loves you.

Obama Stupidly Says Cops "Acted Stupidly"

What started as a fresh, nonscripted moment in an otherwise numbskullduggerous press conference quickly spun out of control.

Getting "Off-Message"

Afterwards, President Obama and his staff engaged in "spin control".

Gibbs: Don't Shoot the Messenger

The inflammatory question, O readers, is this:

If you're playing the "race card", is the Ace of Spades the best or the worst card in the deck?
