For all the jokes about President Bush being borderline brain dead that have been made in the last eight years, you would think that the man would leave well enough alone once he left the White House and stopped being the world's chief source of ridicule.

But no. Our 43rd commander-in-chief wants to publish his memoirs as soon as he gets out of office, despite the fact that no one is buying books in this bad economy, and no one wants to buy a book written by the guy who gave us this bad economy. So that's a double neg.

The anti-Obama Facebook phenomenon is really getting out of control and, luckily, some ignorant crazies are being forced to pay the consequences. Meet Buck Burnette, a football player for the University of Texas and blatant racist. Shortly after the election, his status read: "all the hunters gather up, we have a #$%&er in the whitehouse." Classy guy, that Buck.

As you can imagine, coach Mack Brown kicked him off the team immediately. Buck then issued an apology that was obviously not written by him.

It's official: Rham Emanuel has accepted Barack Obama's offer to become his chief of staff, according to MSNBC's "source very close to Rham Emanuel." So what about "partisan" Emanuel can Republicans glob on to immediately to paint Obama's first appointment as evidence of the Democratic president-elect's incompetence?

• He swears, saying "fuck" a lot. Read: He's an angry, angry man! This is especially important because the GOP will be called racist if they try to make Obama out to be an angry black man.

• Emanuel is a ballet dancer. Read: He's a fairy and won't be able to stand up to terrorists!

One would think that now that the election has come to a close, we no longer need to hash out Sarah Palin's… oddities.

That would only really be true if she planned on heading back to Alaska and staying there. But no one, from her fans to her archenemies, believe that we've seen that last of her. Thanks to an upcoming expose in Newsweek (and Fox News), quite a bit of new, if unsurprising, information has come out about her since America voted.

Here's a round-up:

From Stereohyped editor Lauren Williams: At the election party I went to last night, everyone screamed, hugged, and jumped up and down when Barack Obama was declared the winner. It was happening all over the country, obviously.

Pictured above is the celebration in Harlem. Check out some other pictures from election celebrations after the jump. I slipped one of a weepy Jesse Jackson in there for good measure.

Alright, time to get ghoulish and prepare to get scarily smashed on blood punch or whatever swill they're serving at the cramped Halloween party you're going to tonight.

If the clip above isn't enough to put you in the mood to terrify children (or your spouse or your grandmother), click through to get some more inspiration from a few of our favorite scenes of horror from pop culture history.

Every week, a bunch of “real” people say really stupid things on reality TV. These are their stories.

10. "Elina, Annaleigh and Majorie, they had, like, a lesbian bath moment, apparently. … It was very loud." — Samantha, America's Next Top Model

Just to make sure he squeezed the most TV time he possibly could out of the day, Barack Obama made an appearance on last night's episode of The Daily Show.

It's fun watching politicians and journalists get interviewed by comedians — they never know how to respond to their jokes.

Who here is surprised by the fact that Madonna and Guy Ritchie had a contract listing rules to abide by during their marriage?

After visiting a counselor two years ago, Madge hung up the contract in the couple's New York home and, if her husband every broke the rules, she would say, "Contract, Guy, contract." Cause that's not annoying at all.

It's a wonder Guy survived this long, especially upon viewing the rules…

We pay a lot of lip service here to the idea that magazines and newspapers are a dying breed these days. But how can you not?

It's no longer just a conceptual exercise, like "Oh, when the Internet really takes off and everyone buys a Kindle there will be no more need for paper journalism."

Well aware that things aren't going well for their guy, Sarah Palin and a bunch of angry Iowa Republicans got together in Des Moines yesterday to whine about Barack Obama.

While the vice-presidential nominee went on a crazy cat lady rant about how Obama's policies would make it so that the things a person buys aren't theirs (a lie, by the way), one of her supporter's decided to cut the chit chat and get right to the heart of the matter: "he's a nigger!"

Palin says nothing of the slur, a move that's cowardly at best and a tacit agreement at worst.

Christina Aguilera finally put out a music video a new music video.

And our colleague Whitney Little, who writes for Mollygood, does not approve: "The song, "Keeps Gettin' Better," is enjoyable enough; the video, not so much… What happened to Xtina? Did popping out a child turn her into some weird robot?"

Ouch.
