Celebrities to Make Us Regret Electing Obama at His Own Inauguration

Well, as if the nation doesn't need anything else on its hands. Recession, war, the World Champion Philadelphia Phillies... and now this?

Apparently a bunch of "really smart" celebrities are going to celebrate the fact that they finally jumped on the right bandwagon. They're going to be real happy that they were able to push Barack Obama over the top with their shrill messages and condescending assholery.

Sweet merciful Washington:

HBO will televise the celebration, entitled "We Are One," which takes place from 7:00-9:00 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 18 in Washington. The kickoff event foreshadows a week of activities and celebrations surrounding the inauguration next Tuesday of President-elect Obama.

"We have found that the great artists are eager to take part and each one is working with us to find music that expresses the optimism and hope that people bring to the Obama inauguration," said Michael Stevens, the director of the production.

I may be mistaken, but this may be a sign of the apocalypse.
