Campaign 2008: The Year in Pictures
Like sending a fat, unloved child off to summer camp, today we wave goodbye to the 2008 campaign season, the tears conspicuous by their absence in our eyes. And judging by the tone of some of the comments we've been getting around here ("Fuck you guys!") it's not a moment too soon. America and the world are pretty much politiced-out.
We did have some fun though, didn't we? From the insane amount of Ron Paul insanity on Digg, to the carefree misogyny of the Democratic primaries, to our own Dan O'Brien's quixotic attempts to fingerbang a certain Vice Presidential nominee, there were a lot of good memories this past year, intermixed amongst the thousands of tedious, unpleasant memories. Reflecting my sentimental and hopelessly romantic nature, this whole time I've been keeping a scrapbook of these fun times. I present to you below a small sample.

ReplyWhat? You guys are still using those silly electronic voting machines? You'd think you would have learned by now.
ReplyI did kingmonkey. I actually wrote in Tits the Nun. I did it with shame in my heart the whole time I was typing as well.
ReplyI tried, Kingmonkey. I tried.
ReplyOh, and the birds were the best. The penguin one is going on my desktop!
ReplyUm...it wasn't necessarily homo crap (but hey, I'm not a homo and maybe it was...) but it WAS Tom Cruise before he went bonkers. Don't you recognize "Top Gun"? Homoerotic fighter pilots! Dreamin' of the good ol' days.....
ReplyBob is like a closeted Haley Joe Osmond.
ReplyHe sees gay people.
I am calling it now for Ron Paul! Not all the votes are counted yet!
ReplyI never knew Obama had such a thing for birds. Don't listen to HomicidalOrange (murderous fruits know nothing) the bird thing was done just the right amount. I laughed so hard at the penguin.
ReplyHilarious. The bird thing made me laugh so much. :)
ReplyInteresting, some good pictures but the bird thing was overdone, funny the first time though
Replyoh silly Wu-tang clan...
