....at the White house correspondent's dinner. This is usually the best part of the night and it didn't disappoint at all. Second best part of the night was Brooke Baldwin of CNN looking spectacular. The speech is after the pic.

Sound Advice
Mitt Romney has been seen as having a problem with connecting with regular,run of the mill,average Joe Americans. People believe that his charmed life and immense wealth puts him slightly out of touch with regular people. Just because a man was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and has a car elevator inside of his garage that's about twice the size of the house that I live in does not make him out of touch. And just because this same man once had to sell some of his stock portfolio while he was in his early 20's to pay his way through an Ivy League college while the current president just got done paying off student loans also doesn't make him out of touch. Of course this sound advice given to some college students in Ohio today probably wont help him look more normal. Click on the video below to see a man so out of touch that he doesn't realize that he's sounding like a total and complete jackass. Click on the video below as one man tells broke college students to borrow money from their parents who still haven't paid off their own loans. Click to see one man tell us to take the Jimmy John's route and just borrow $25,000 from mom and dad because clearly they have $25,000 just burning a hole in their pockets. Enjoy the video.

Ad of the day
Today's ad of the day comes courtesy of French presidential candidate Francois Hollande. Francois Hollande represents the socialist party in France and recently bested president Nicolas Sarkozy in the first round of voting. The two men will face off in May to decide who's going to be in charge of the most fashionable country on the planet for the next few years.
In the ad below we get to see Francois Hollande show that he's cool,he's hip and he connects with the people in the Parisian suburbs,unlike Nicolas Sarkozy. We get to see a diverse cast of characters show their support for the socialist candidate by holding up electoral cards with his name on it and we even get to hear a few of the voice their support. Oh and the background music is "Niggas In Paris" by Jay Z and Kanye West from their wildly popular "Watch the Throne" album. Click on the ad below to be amazed by a soundtrack choice that would never fly in America for the obvious reasons. Click below that to hear the entire song by Jay Z and Kanye West if you're ok with having an epileptic seizure from the flashing lights in the video.

The Buzzkill Playlist
That last blog is already getting a ton of hits and it gave me a great idea. Why not post all of my favorite horrible songs in one blog to make it easier for you,the reader to find them? With that said here's a helpful guide to the worst songs ever posted on here. Click on the links below to enjoy a playlist sure to kill any buzz you have on 4/20.
1.) CJ and Victoria "My Town" - If you've ever wondered what it's like to hear screamo music mixed with hip hop,wonder no more. In this song we get to see two teenagers scream over a cartoon background to the point of nearly splitting an ear drum.
2.) "Christian Side Hug" - I honestly don't know the name of the group in this video but they are awesome. In this rap song we get to hear a group of God fearing young men warn us of the dangers of improper hugging. An improper hug would be any hug that isn't a side hug. A default front hug can lead to genitals rubbing together which would make you a fornicator. Don't be a fornicator!
3.) B-Shoc "Jesus Lean" - Think "Lean Back" by Fat Joe but with worse rapping,a somehow worse dance despite being the same thing and a generically bad southern style beat. Also,there's a strong message of Christianity in this song somewhere.
4.) Ray Jr. featuring Erika Kayne "She Said(Don't cum in me)" - The title is pretty self explanatory but that barely scratches the surface as to why this song is amazing. In it we get to hear Ray Jr try to lyrically lay some pipe over a sexy beat with the incredible Erika Kayne belting out a chorus that sticks to you. As a bonus the song does have a message of pregnancy prevention. Also,the girl singing the hook actually tweeted at me right after I originally blogged about her song.
5.) "Move it like Bernie" - This song is actually my favorite among this entire list due to the fact that the guy actually can rap. The major problem with this is the incredibly ridiculous concept behind this song. If you haven't guessed by now the song is actually based off of the movie "Weekend at Bernies 2". In particular it's from this scene. This song actually took off and became a minor hit in the south,got parodied in other videos and even made the news here in Detroit.
6.) The Wolfe Pak "Wat kind of girl" - This song is by far the worst of the bunch and I've personally disliked this one for over a decade. How have I disliked this unknown song for a decade? Well it turns out either my mom or aunt was given the CD containing this song while out at a club years ago. Somehow the CD was never thrown away and since it was still around my brother decided to upload it on Youtube and it made it's way to this site. Between the disjointed beat,annoying "instruments" used on the beat,the mixing,mastering and volume problems and lyrical weakness,this is a song you're sure to hate. If the rest of this list hasn't blown your 4/20 buzz,this one will finish off whatever buzz you had.

Midnight Distraction
If there's one thing I love more than winning,it's horrendous music. I'm literally able to listen to Soulja Boy and not shoot myself from the awfulness of his lyrics. I'm able to listen to "Friday" by Rebecca Black and not go off the deep end. What I'm saying is that bad music doesn't bother me. In fact it kinda amuses me. With that said here's another to add to the prestigious list of awful music videos to be featured on this site. Check out some hot problems.

Photo of the Day
The President stopped through town yesterday for a few fundraising opportunities. In addition to giving a couple of speeches and raising a million dollars,he also took some time to check out what's actually inside the Henry Ford Museum. Below is a photo of the president sitting in the same bus that Rosa Parks once sat in. Click for a larger picture.

Photo of the Day
There has been rumors floating around that SNL is trying to get republican front runner Mitt Romney to host an upcoming show. I personally would love to see it. I'm not a Romney voter but seeing someone like him participating in sketches on a show that has made it's living making fun of him lately,would be awesome. Also, I would love to see if Mitt has any sense of comedic timing or is he as awful as Lindsay Lohan when it comes to actually being funny. So,what does the man,the Mitt,the legend,Romney think of it? Click on the photo below to find out.
If you missed it
If you missed it last night,Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg put on a great show to close out Coachella. The show,which lasted slightly longer than an hour included tons of guests. Guests ranged from Kendrick Lamar to 50 cent to the late 2pac. They actually bought out a hologram of 2pac to perform a couple of songs despite the fact that Tupac Shakur has been dead for over 15 years. Also,that last sentence makes me feel old. Click and be amazed at a cyborg 2pac performance and the full set right under that.

It's past midnight but I figured it would be pretty awesome to give you one small thing to laugh at before I post yet another awesome video on here in a few minutes.
As everyone knows,proper advertising is always a key to success. I know it,you know it and anyone with a brain knows it. In fact I'm trying to put that into theory by finally applying to college at some point in the near future to get a degree in advertising. Of course this depends on how this turns out. With that said,click on the photo below and laugh..

Just killing time here
I haven't posted anything all day for some reason and that sucks for a myriad of different reasons. With that said here's a short video that shows you why you should always know what you're doing if you're going to be handling weaponry. Click on the video below and be amazed that this guy is still alive.

Problematic Patterns
Now that the republican primary season is basically over,Mitt Romney has decided on going after Barack Obama. Obviously this makes perfect sense and if the latest CNN poll numbers are any indication,he has some huge issues he needs to fix. While he's not doing too badly with independents,he's getting destroyed in the polling when it comes to who women would rather vote for. In some polls the President is winning by as much as 31%. Mitt has a long way to go to make up the difference among women and saying that you're unsure about the Fair Pay Act,which makes it illegal to shortchange women just for the simple fact that they're women,isn't a good idea. Combine this with a bruising primary season that has actually seen his favorability rating drop by 12% and an increased amount of attacks by the Obama campaign and you have a recipe for disaster. Check out the poll numbers below.

Afternoon Distraction
If you've been online during the last couple of weeks you may have noticed a pretty hilarious tumblr page getting a lot of mentions around the internet. That page is called "Texts from Hillary" and it chronicles a fictional series of hilarious texts between Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and a whole host of random people ranging from President Obama to President Clinton to sending a somewhat rude but hilarious text to Sarah Palin. Now it seems that Hillary Clinton has actually decided to join in on the hilarity and this bit of awesomeness is your afternoon distraction. Click on the photo below to see more.

Song of the day
Today's song of the day comes courtesy of Brick Squad member "Bo Deal". In the remix to his lead single "Wow", Bo enlists the help of some more well known members of the hip hop community. This includes French Montana,Trae tha Truth(who happens to be in my top 20 all time),Twista(ditto) and Waka Flocka. Click on the video below to hear the song. Click on this sentence to go to my other site to download 2 versions of it.
What the fuck?
As many of you may or may not know,I sometimes check my facebook account. While doing this earlier I happened to see a photo circulating up and down my timeline among people who live in and around Detroit. The picture is a sign that one of my friends reported seeing off of a freeway not too far from my house. I'm not gonna say that I'm shocked,just sad that such ridiculousness still exists in this supposedly post racial society. I'm hoping that someone from MSP or the department of transportation has already seen it and taken it down. Click and be disgusted.
Update:Apparently MDOT has seen this and they're trying to figure out if it was done by a random vandal or one of the subcontractors who actually own the sign. Watch the story about it from my local fox station below.

If you missed it
You may have missed it earlier but there was a forum on women and the economy at the white house today. During this forum we got a 20 minute long speech from the president that touched on many topics centering around women and the economy. We get to hear him gloat about the recent uptick in jobs and downward tick in the unemployment rate. We also get a few jokes about his wife,mother in law and MSNBC host Joe Scarborough. From there we get a somewhat long winded speech about the women who have inspired him over the years. We also get to hear what his administration is trying to do to make life more equal for women in this country. This includes making the workplace a more fair place for everyone. He also points out that women have been getting screwed over monetarily forever but thanks to him signing the Fair Pay Act,that will be coming to an end. Meanwhile in Wisconsin,it's now legal to shortchange women on their paychecks again. God bless America! Click on the video below.

Photo of the day
Today's photo of the day comes courtesy of the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards. In this pic we get to see First Lady Michelle Obama present country/pop star Taylor Swift with the "big help" award. I can't even make a joke about the look of complete shock on Taylor Swift's face because I would have probably started crying if it were me.
