President-elect Barack Obama leavs Manny’s Coffee Shop and Deli with his lunch during a break from his transition office at the federal building Friday in Chicago, Illinois. Obama ordered a corned beef sandwich and greeted customers before leaving the restaurant.

Obama is currently picking members for his cabinet while transitioning to the White House. The inauguration will be held on January 20th 2009 in Washington D.C.

In related news, Records from a cell phone used by President-elect Obama were improperly breached, apparently by employees of the cell phone company, Verizon Wireless said Thursday. The Obama transition team was notified Wednesday by Verizon of the breach, said team spokesman Robert Gibbs. He said the president-elect no longer uses the phone.

SARAH PALIN INTERVIEW CAUSES STIR

Former Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin is causing a stir for an interview she gave after pardoning an Alaska turkey Thursday, during which one bird was being slaughtered in the background.

Palin appeared unaware of what was going on directly behind her. View the video above.

GORE ON ELECTION RESULTS

83321930_10.jpg

Former Vice President Al Gore was fired up over the election of Sen. Barack Obama in one of his first post-election interviews.

“I can barely contain my excitement about this election,” Gore told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria. “Regardless of the differences over issues and politics this was a water shed election that really just gave every American a feeling of great pride in our nation’s ability to transcend our past, and redeem the revolutionary promise of our Declaration of Independence: that every human being is created equal, and it’s electrifying seeing that declaration.”

Catch the full interview on Fareed Zakaria’s GPS, Sunday at 1 p.m. E.T on CNN.

BUSH & RICE IN D.C.

Barack and Condi lookin sharp. I’m probably the only one who find the Sarah Palin interview funny. The whole time she was talking that guy in the background was slaughtering the turkey and looking into the camera like it won’t nothing. Sarah can never win.

The Sarah Palin thing is funny. The video is a little strange and so weird the she just gives an interview while a turkey is being slaughtered in the background. I’m not sure she’s altogether with it!

But, let’s get real people. All the turkies that you’ll be gobbling down on Thanksgiving are DEAD and somebody had to kill them!

So, you PETA nuts, BACK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LMAO!

Bush Getting The Bush?

Friday, November 21, 2008 /

Looks more to me like Bush is being Bush. The others are extending their hands and he’s keeping it moving and just saying hello… to some. I remember Obama saying when he met him and they shook hands he had an assistant squirt sanitizer in his hand (and then offered some to Obama). He’s a germaphobe - that’s what’s happening here. It would be great if it was actual snubbing though.

Okay I may be starting mess but when I saw the pic of Bush & Rice I immediately thought…I have never seen Condie w/ any other man but Bush, or hell for that matter even a woman (if thats what tickles her fancy).

To add fire, I mean she did once have a slip of the tongue and call Pres Bush her husband. If they are he must be putting it on her cuz there ain’t been a leak or nothin. Anyhoo…

Speak on it Al Gore!!!!!

I see you Barack, love that mans swagger, you and your family are still part of my prayers.

How is that Palin’s fault?!! The film crew stopped her in front of that slaughtering contraption. I blame the film crew. They could see what was going on, she was talking and had her back to it. The crew could have moved around to where their back was to the contraption and Palin would have been filmed at a different angle. And what do you think happens to the meat we eat? The animal has to be killed somehow. Sad but true

Love Obama…& that’s the haircut from a “undisclosed location.”

As for Palin…this is who some people wanted for VP!? She is clueless! I mean she just pardon a turkey & then she stands where they slaughter the birds 2 do an interview (film crew probably did that on purpose). One of them could have been the one she just pardon. And then when u actually listen 2 what she is sayin during the interview, she still doesn’t know what she is talking about. And I think I will be having a veggie plate now 4 Thanksgiving:-( I could easily become a veg when u watch how they kill the animals. It takes ur appetite!

I’m not even going to lie, I used to work at Tmobile and everytime we found a celebrity account we would show each other and sometimes go through the bill if we could do it without being found out.
I’ve looked through alot of celebrities accounts but the only thing you see is the numbers, it’s not like you can see the texts or even who the numbers belong to.
