"You Know Twitter is Lame When... "

• The IRS tells notifies you that you're being auditted via tweet...

• Your car insurance company asks you to follow them via Twitter...

• You must tweet in order to contact Support at your banking agency...

• You can't seem to get enough ideas for home improvement projects thanks to Home Depot's tweets... too bad you never seem to peel your ass off that chair, either.

Ahhh... how incessantly dull our lives might be if it weren't for the almighty Twitter.   And in case you're wondering why the shots above appear singed around the edges... well, if you hadn't figured out that we're in HELL by this point... perhaps you were one of those born with the gift of "unique perspective."  Cheers!  :)

Walmart, CVS, Best Buy, GMAC Among 8 Major Companies To Pull Ads From Glenn Beck Show

Walmart, Best Buy, CVS, and GMAC are among eight major advertisers that have confirmed pulling their advertising from Fox News' "Glenn Beck" program in light of his comments that President Obama is a racist.

The advertisers did not pull their spots from Fox News, but rather requested that their ads do not air during Beck's 5PM program.

The advertisers in the latest round of pull-out from Beck's show and their statements to ColorOfChange.org:

• Allergan (maker of Restasis): "We reviewed our commercial schedule, and based on your feedback, we've put any programming featuring Glenn Beck on our "do not air" list. This means that you will no longer see any Restasis ads during programming featuring Glenn Beck. Thanks again for bringing this to our attention."
• Ally Bank (a unit of GMAC Financial Services): "Ally advertises on a broad spectrum of programs to reach our potential customers. Our advertising is not an endorsement of editorial content on any program. We have ceased to advertise on the Glenn Beck program."
• Best Buy
• Broadview Security: "Given the considerations, we have requested of Fox News not to include us in the rotation that would have our commercials running on Glenn Beck's show."
• CVS: "While advertising on Fox is part of our communication plan, we had not requested time on Glenn Beck's show specifically. We have instructed our advertising agency to inform Fox to ensure Glenn Beck's program is not part of our advertising plan."
• Re-Bath: "...We are no longer airing our commercials on the Glenn Beck Show..."
• Travelocity: "We did not specifically place our ad on the show. We buy ads in bulk and then they are placed somewhat randomly. However, we have now specifically asked that our ads do not appear during this show."
• Wal-Mart: "Walmart today confirmed the retailer pulled ads from the Glenn Beck show on August 3rd,"

These companies join a growing list of advertisers to pull their ads from Beck's show, including ConAgra, GEICO, Lawyers.com, Men's Wearhouse, Procter & Gamble, Progressive Insurance, RadioShack, Roche, SC Johnson, Sanofi-Aventis, Sargento, and State Farm Insurance.

Well, it turns out even a guy as polished as Barack Obama has a few Bushisms to let loose and wreak havoc upon the general public with.  Watch this clip from the Daily Show...

The young girl in the audience raised an excellent point, except I would have modified the question slightly, to 'how can "ANYONE" [not just kids] know what to believe', since it seems quite obvious that Fox News and the Republican Neocons have been successfully parading the ignorant into debates that are chalk-full of blatant misinformation and propaganda -- perfectly OK, according to them, as long as it's in the name of politics. Le sigh. :|
