M3 Beats Prius In Skewed MPG Test

Phillip Roman | June 30, 2008 | 6:24 pm
From Team Polizei 144

In a recent Top Gear episode, Clarkson & Co. pitted an M3 against a Prius on their test track. The M3 followed the Prius around the circuit as it lapped as fast as it could. It bored Clarkson to tears but he did it in the name of science. The end result showed the M3 averaged 16.1 mpg vs. the Prius’ 14.3 mpg. Does it take a genius to figure out why?

Bill Clinton says Barack Obama must 'kiss my ass' for his support

Phillip Roman | June 30, 2008 | 5:35 am

This is just a great photo.

Bill Clinton is so bitter about Barack Obama’s victory over his wife Hillary that he has told friends the Democratic nominee will have to beg for his wholehearted support.

Wes Clark downplays McCain War Record's Value

Phillip Roman | June 30, 2008 | 5:28 am


When the interviewer, Bob Schieffer, noted to Clark that McCain had been shot down over Hanoi, Clark replied, “I don’t think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be president.”

“The reality is he’s proving to be a typical politician who is willing to say anything to get elected, including allowing his campaign surrogates to demean and attack John McCain’s military service record,” McCain spokesman Brian Rogers said.

Obama, McCain spar for Latino vote

Phillip Roman | June 29, 2008 | 8:58 am

One thing that I hate about politicians (Obama in this case) is that all of a sudden they claim to have a perfect solution to fix a problem and are pleading for re/election so they can implement their special plan that will save America. They totally ignore the fact that they have been in power in the past and in the position to sponsor a bill that would have achieved their goal.

Obama has a tendency to say what the people in front of him want him to say (be it about people clinging to their guns and religion or about immigration). McCain on the other hand can be a little to real for his own good (such as McCain losing Michigan because he was honest and said that the state’s lost jobs where never coming back).

McCain at least tried to do something about illegal immigration and he learned a lesson that will allow him to bring about real change to the issue and not just rhetoric.

“We will not succeed in the Congress of the United States until we convince a majority of the American people that we have border security.” McCain said.

Oh Amy (updated: now with video!)

Phillip Roman | June 29, 2008 | 2:29 am

(The CNN guy’s joke at the end is dumb.)

These are some of the many reasons why I love Amy.

AMY WINEHOUSE made PETE DOHERTY look angelic tonight after punching a fan, spitting gum into the crowd and calling KANYE WEST a c*** on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury.
