Actress, Obama supporter and Bill Clinton fan Olivia Wilde wants to remind her followers that obsessing over Miley Cyrus did not avert a government shutdown, or something:

So, if John Boehner (or maybe Harry Reid) would take up twerking, perhaps some of the people focused instead on Miley Cyrus would pay attention to politics more? We have our doubts, but shudder to think about it nonetheless.

Surfing In Warm Weather Is For Suckers. These Guys Do It In The Arctic.

Photographer Chris Burkard recently teamed up with SmugMug Film and some professional surfers to do something amazing. Burkard and his crew took a trip up to the Arctic Circle in Norway to surf some of the roughest, coldest beaches in the world. They filmed the whole thing and have created a mini documentary of their adventure. It is seriously awesome:

If you thought that was amazing, just check out some of the photographs Burkard took during the trip.

Burkard’s work is amazing. Check out some of his other non-Arctic pictures:

Another paper flips to Romney: Wisconsin State Journal says ‘Not enough hope, too little change’

http://twitter.com/#!/RyanGOP/status/265060504215617537

This morning we learned that the New York Daily News endorsed Romney. Now, the Wisconsin State Journal has announced its support for him.

Here’s an excerpt from the story:

Romney better understands how and why entrepreneurs and employers decide to expand and add jobs. He’s more likely to get the private-sector going strong again.

Obama failed to embrace his own commission’s bipartisan debt deal. Ryan, serving on the commission, similarly balked at the solid and comprehensive agreement.

It was Obama and his fellow Democrats who went it alone on health care, making subsequent deals even harder to find. It was Obama who too often let Congress steer the ship in circles. It still is Obama who hasn’t laid out a clear vision for the next four years.

It’s difficult to keep track of the number of newspapers endorsing Romney that backed Obama in 2008.
