Welcome to Obama-merica

As everyone with half a brain knows, today was the first day of Barack Obama’s reign as King of America and change has come to America… on TMZ. A good majority of tonight’s TMZ was all politically oriented, beyond a bunch of actors going to inauguration balls

Nestled between Brad Pitt, supermodels frolicking at the beach and K-Fed
were sidewalk interviews with former presidential candidate Gen. Wesley Clark and Carl Bernstein of Woodward and Bernstein

Even the President’s sex life played a prominent role in the episode with a poll by the TMZ Staff.

We’ve seen it coming for a year now but really, it seems that overnight/all of a sudden politics has become Hollywood sexy.

Rachel Maddow, MSNBC’s new prime time darling and my new news media crush, reports on Sarah Palin’s new gear. Sound superficial? Not when it cost the the RNC $150K. It would have been so much easier if they had picked someone coastal, they already own professional power duds. Palin also reportedly cooked some books in order to bring her kids along (uninvited) on official trips

The best line of the segment:

“Free duds, and free trips for the kids. Kind of makes me want to be a Maverick too.”
followed by a saucy little head tilt.
