McCain: I Was Wrong to Compare Barack Obama to Paris Hilton; Paris Hilton is Actually More Sensible and Less Goofball Enviroleftist

Paris Hilton cut a Funny or Die clip, announcing her bid for presidency. She proposed both expanded drilling (with environmental safeguards) and tax incentives for alternate energy development.

She pitched this (or rather her writers pitched this) as a sensible "All of the Above" alternative to Obama's and McCain's plans.

Trouble is, it's not an alternative to McCain's plan; it's actually McCain's plan (as well as the plan of the Republicans generally).

In the unkindest cut of all, McCain’s spokesperson Tucker Bounds tells TMZ that on the subject of energy, Paris is deeper than Barack. He says, “Sounds like Paris is taking the ‘All of the Above’ energy approach that John McCain has advocated — both alternatives and drilling. Perhaps the reality is that Paris has a more substantive energy plan than Barack Obama.”

Winner: McCain. Runner-up: Paris Hilton.

Loser: Obama.

In related news, Paris Hilton immediately accused herself of stirring up racial fears of miscegenation by even mentioning Obama by name.

Takeaway: Even leftwing comedy writers, hopelessly in the bag for Barack Obama, struggle to find any sense in Obama's doctrinaire no drilling, no way policy.

And they're trying to support him, mind you. But when they try to support him, they wind up endorsing Republican energy policy.
