The White House put together this video of various Muslim Americans speaking about being Muslim in America and about Obama’s speech in Cairo, Egypt. Check it out.

This is a little uncomfortable to watch, but funny, nonetheless…

Okay, I had to do it…

Check out this video mash-up of my segment with Click & Clack on NPR’s Car Talk this past weekend.

Rob Schiffmann, an old friend of the DoubleSpeak gang and a great songwriter in NYC sent along this little tune he put together after watching the inauguration last week.

You may remember another song that Rob wrote from a past episode of DoubleSpeakShow. You can check out his band, The Hillary Step (no, not Hillary Clinton) here.

Last night, Sens. McCain and Obama met for the Al Smith Dinner in New York City. Pretty funny stuff. Here’s the video series. Enjoy.

McCain – Part 2:

I did a spot late this afternoon on MSNBC debating the perceived maverick nature of the McCain/Palin ‘08 ticket. Let’s just say this: it’s a load of crap.

John McCain is a creature of Washington. He is Washington – he personifies the mess that we face in this country and his support of George W. Bush nearly 90% of the time has helped to drive our economy and our foreign policy into the ditch that we find ourselves in today.

John McCain is the problem, not the solution!

As far as Sarah Palin goes, she is a change candidate, in that she is the first female VP nominee in Republican Party history. I don’t want to discount that accomplishment – I applaud her for that.

However, that is where the change stops. She’s completely anti-change when it comes to important issues that will be paramount over the coming years. She was for the “Bridge to Nowhere” before she was against (she likes her pork), she doesn’t believe in man-made global warming, she would turn the clock back nearly 30 years on the rights of women to make choices about their health and well being, she has no plans for health care reform and to cover the nearly 50 million uninsured Americans, she’s never indicated any stance on foreign policy or international diplomacy, and the list goes on and on. Yes, she’s new and exciting, but her policies are like dinosaurs – old and extinct. On top of all of this, the McCain campaign believes it’s okay to shield her from the press – the very people in this country whose job it is to ask tough questions of our elected officials and find out where they come down on issues.

Here’s the MSNBC clip:

Lieberman is a joke-of-a-guy!

“As far as I’m concerned he (Senator Obama) is a ‘Baruch,’ which means a blessing. He is a blessing to the United States Senate, to America, and to our shared hopes for better, safer tomorrows for all our families…”

My brother and I did a quick spot together on MSNBC this afternoon. Check it out.
