5738: Cover-To-Cover Stupidity.

Covering the news in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• Vanity Fair decided to fight satire with satire, producing a parody of the infamous New Yorker Obamas cover featuring the McCains. Look for Ebony to create a Cynthia McKinney Green Party cover, with the former Congresswoman sticking her fist into a U.S. Capitol cop’s face.

• NYPD officials are investigating an incident where the head of a Black doll was stuck on the radio antenna of an unmarked police car carrying a couple of White cops. Maybe the cops were showing support for Cynthia McKinney.

• Max Mosley won his lawsuit against a tabloid that exposed his S&M orgy with hookers. The News of the World claimed it was a Nazi party, but Mosley denied a political theme and will collect $120,000. Which should pay for a few more non-Nazi orgies.

• Ford posted 2Q losses at $8.7 billion, while Chrysler announced plans to dump 1,000 salaried positions. The New York Times 2Q earnings dropped 82 percent. You know things are bad when major corporations are doing worse than old dudes staging S&M orgies.

5690: Party Time.

Partygoers in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• Former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney is running for president as the Green Party candidate. McKinney’s last public appearance involved her altercation with a U.S. Capitol Police officer who failed to recognize her at a security checkpoint. Now the rest of America will likely fail to recognize McKinney.

• The two Indonesian housekeepers held as virtual slaves by a Long Island millionaire couple were awarded nearly $1 million by a federal judge. The judge ruled the women deserved nearly double their unpaid wages because of the physical abuse they suffered. Talk about reparations.

• Bernie Mac was heckled while performing during a fundraiser for Barack Obama. No, the heckler was not Jesse Jackson.
