Paris Hilton Responds

Paris Hilton Responds to John McCain's attack ad comparing her and Britney to Barack Obama.

volatile · 6th August 2008, 03:00 AM

So Paris Hilton's job is now being a parody of Paris Hilton?

Post-modernism has birthed some strange phenomena, hasn't it?

Echoing what I said elsewhere: What an annoyingly brilliant piece of self-promotion.

Darat · 6th August 2008, 03:20 AM

The only way I could tell this was a parody was when she actually articulated a policy!

I wonder if she was wearing sunscreen.

She is sooooo talented. I don't know why she doesn't star in more motion pictures shot with studio quality cameras.

Darat · 6th August 2008, 06:15 AM

I really don't know that much about her (apart from the snippets of "news" that it seems to be impossible to avoid if you access any media) but I thought it was a well done piece of satire.

I'd say Senator McBush had it coming.

Now that's funny right there.

You are no longer worthy. However, I'll accept you as her VP if you show me your tits.

likely, but less impressive nevertheless. She showed me videos. Perhaps you might too.

At least she has one now.

That's always been her job. That's what makes her "famous for being famous."

It does seem as though she's been promoted to famous for being famous for being famous.

And the American public gets to blame McCain for reminding us that she still exists.

Why does McCain hate America so much?

Tiktaalik · 6th August 2008, 12:33 PM

I'm voting for the Paris Hilton/T. Boone Pickens ticket.

Slogans? Pickin' Pickens & Paris?

I think you answered your own question.

GreyICE · 7th August 2008, 06:10 PM

Is it bad that that's the funniest thing I've seen this campaign season?

Our pundits are really failing on the satire if they're being upstaged by Paris.

Paris Hilton should give her money to the people in Africa. Paris Hilton and Roman Abramovich have a lot in common.
