Paris Hilton Responds To Wrinkly White-Haired Dude

Scary that she sounds smarter than the guy who has been in the Senate for 20+ years.

I'll see you at the debates, bitches.

When they played this on the Today Show this morning it was declawed to remove the first part that ridiculed McCains age by comparing him to tales ftom the crypt's host etc, and bleeping out bitchez. Seems the MSM still are trying to shield McCain from negative publicity.

Oh for crying out loud: Cand L, STOP saying she sounds so smart- or that she is smarter than she appears to be- because of this video. All it proves is that she's an opportunist and she can read. What, do you think she came up with this all on her own? Do you think she wrote and concieved of it? Big deal: so she read a prepared script.

I would assume her ideas and statements are no more hers that McCain's are his.

It was a joke, perhaps you should lighten up.

Best not to mess with the Hilton family after they have maxed out the amount of money they are allowed to give to your campaign. Using their daughter in your campaign ad and insinuating she is a famous air-head isn't the brightest thing to do.

I love this video! They played it in it's entirety on MSNBC this morning at least twice. The last line is a killer.

DrDick's picture

Damn I hate it when my preconceptions get shattered. Ms. Hilton seems, in the video at least, much less vacuous than I had thought and certainly much less so than Sen. McCain, who just offered up his 54 year old wife for the voyeuristic entertainment of several thousand bikers.

I can't imagine anything more insulting than being her Bitch. I wonder how McCain feels about being a bitch of a Hilton?

I don't care if Britney wrote it, it's funny. Like my Mom used to say, people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks. Maybe the McBush/Atwater/Rove crowd ought to rethink their "funny" ads.

She reads a script WAY better than Bombin'Johnnie, doncha think? I'd say she's at least AS Smart as the skeevy, little (5'7") baby killer...

CafeenMan's picture

I just thought of something.

The reason for this "rebuttal" is because McCain compared Barack to Paris... they're both celebrities (and we're left to our own imaginations why that's a bad thing).

Now Paris just called McCain a bitch. He can't do shit about it because of all the Hilton money he receives. I don't think he's actually up for starting a war with anyone who can hurt him personally. Iran is fine because other people will fight that but he won't take on the Hiltons because he will personally get hurt.

Now if Obama (remember, he's Hilton's equal) calls McCain a bitch you know he won't let that go. In fact, it will probably lose the election for Obama. So I'm not saying he should do it. I'm just saying that Hilton and Obama are clearly not on equal footing because McCain will do for Hilton after she insulted him the same as he did for Bush after he insulted McCain. McCain will kiss that ass until it's squeaky clean.

I don't think he'll do the same for Obama.

That's about what McCain can do, too. Read a prepared script. Regardless of the changes that occur in it from day to day. Just read the words in front of you, sir, don't worry about what they mean.

MessiahRp's picture

Actually Paris is probably smarter then she lets on. She knows that her ditzy image is marketable and has parlayed it into a book deal, acting gigs, a music CD (even if it is awful), a clothing line as well as one for dogs because of her dog. She's smarter than she seems and I think that's because she realizes that image sells.

She may not be an Einstein or any sort of genius but I don't think she's an idiot like everyone else does.

McCain thought by promising tax break to the rich, he can own Paris Hilton.
She refused to be owned and used by McCain.
Now she is responding to him with ad of her own.
Her mother before her responded also to McCain sleazy ad. and called it waste of money.
McCain learned his lesson from this ad.

Obama should run an ad listing the contributions the Hilton family has made to the McCain campaign along with how Paris was misused in McCain's campaign ads. Then he should have immediate follow with the caption: "To McCain anyone is expendable, even his most loyal supporters."

McCain's campaign should learn something from this. The lesson is be careful what you start.

His campaign better come out quick with a statement. Something like we appreciate Ms Hilton's sense of humor.

I guess everyone thought McCain's ad was hee-haw funny except those who appeared in it.

Just a tad off the path here but bush and the president of South Korea are live on c-span doing a press conference. When it was bush's turn to make a speech, the second sentence out of his mouth was that he was looking forward to having lunch. Geez, is food all this dude thinks about when he is visiting leaders overseas? At least he didn't mention anything about eating a pig.

Parasite Hilton? Hot? Only to those who have never gotten any by age 25.

And she's not that bright. If she were, she would have finished the video in one or two takes.

Between the beginning and the end, she goes from completely in the light to completely shaded without the chair moving. That would take at least an hour.

Don't know who wrote it (Paris gets bonus points if she did - or collaborated on it) but her delivery is sensational.

And her proposal??? Well combining both McCain and Obama's policies is pure genius!!!

A win win for everyone!!!!

Paris - you may as well run for President - Obama is wonderful, McCain is disgraceful - and you may just be the right one in the middle...

Remember the Simpsons episode where Ralph Wiggins is nominated and some of his policies actually sounded better than McCains - and Bush's for example!!!

I just discovered that the press conference wasn't live, it was held apparently yesterday even though it said "live" on the screen. As I watched bush answering questions I realized what he can do after he leaves the white house. He can do impersonations of McCain. The both smile and giggle at all the wrong times.

Exactly. Her delivery isn't very good either. I've never actually heard Paris speak before; she seems to be a poor imitation of Alicia Silverstone in Clueless. It is astonishing that America is actually interested in this person and anything she has to say. That being said, I'm guilty of watching this video, so I'm no better than the rest.

For the record, if there is one, I am NOT one of the morons who " slapped their thighs and guffawed over McBushs' joke". Nor am I a Republican. Sheesh. I just find it a sad state of affairs when so much praise is heaped upon someone so undeserving of praise. Bush and his like have assaulted the idea of what it is to be " smart" for close to 8 years. He's made "smart" into a bad word, a trait to be avoided. I'll hold my applause for those truly worthy of it, thank you.

I really don't think this helps anyone - McCain or Obama. And your observation that Paris seems smarter than McCain rings true, but it also tells me that she doesn't have to pander to the voters on either side of the aisle. In other words she also sounds smarter than Obama.

Problem is she isn't. This woman had the financial resources to hire a P.R. firm of some kind and do all the work for her without having to be responsive to the center of the aisle.

I ain't so enthused with the bruised sensitivities of a spoiled rich kid. And I am not so shallow as to be swayed by same.

I hope the rest of you aren't so disposed. This is a shallow human being with a shallow response to the ravings of a shallow Presidential candidate. And she isn't exactly being complimentary to Obama. Perhaps the proper response from Obama and McCain is to take more responsible positions without regard to the perceived center.

But nearly everything you'll ever hear McCain saying is from a script too. And as has been noted time and again, he just can't get the hang of reading a teleprompter. GWB has been reading tightly-prepared scripts for years. It hasn't kept him from looking like an idiot. A childish, drooling lame-brained unconcerned idiot, and a sadistic, evil man to boot.

One other thing - I'm pretty sure I detect in parts of this script at least some input from Paris herself. So I don't exactly agree with your point.

I hope the rest of you aren't so disposed. This is a shallow human being with a shallow response to the ravings of a shallow Presidential candidate. And she isn't exactly being complimentary to Obama. Perhaps the proper response from Obama and McCain is to take more responsible positions without regard to the perceived center.

As we're circling the porcelain bowl, waiting to see who's going to dump on our Inalienable Rights and the US Economy next, a little humor doesn't hurt.

Lighten up.

"But nearly everything you’ll ever hear McCain saying is from a script too. And as has been noted time and again, he just can’t get the hang of reading a teleprompter. GWB has been reading tightly-prepared scripts for years. It hasn’t kept him from looking like an idiot. A childish, drooling lame-brained unconcerned idiot, and a sadistic, evil man to boot.

One other thing - I’m pretty sure I detect in parts of this script at least some input from Paris herself. So I don’t exactly agree with your point."

Yes, nearly everything McCain says is from a script too. So what? That means we ignore it and give undue praise to someone else? They are both empty suits, and neither are praiseworthy. Yes, I'm sure Paris had significant input into the piece. Like her " hot" quotes.

She still a dumbass, bitches.

Off shore drilling, no matter how you package it, is a caveman's idea in today's world. I like how it's made to some like a novel concept coming out of her mouth.

Ho, Please....

I'm fairly certain she wasn't presenting this as a real proposal. Oh, and she's not really running for president.

My point is this was flooded onto MTV stations over the last 24 hours, to some people who have never HEARD of this issue of drilling off shore. TO THOSE people, her suggestion sound completely PLAUSIBLE. It now is a narrative in the minds of young people who, for some odd reason, follow this girl. AND there are plenty of those just look at the number of youtube visits mentioned above.

You seriously think this "ad" is a threat to the intellectual climate of this country? Calm down, she's not going to sway people on off shore drilling. My guess would be that the folks who follow Paris for her sake are more interested in her endorsement of Maui and the brand of bathing suit she was wearing.

So let me get this straight:

The Bush Crime Junta has just convicted of war crimes, Osama Bin Laden's Valet in a Show Trial, the legality of which is dubious, more dubious and completely dubious.

After all, they had to get someone for something before the Boy Fuhrer leaves office.

But there is more.

The FBI has been busy framing a dead person for the Anthrax attacks, this just after paying FIVE MILLION to another person they were saying bad things about but who was totally innocent.

A dead man is easy to convict. But wait, there is more.

A Pulitzer Prize winning journalist has just brought about further revelations of the Bushies mendacity before and after the illegal Iraq invasion, which now even includes outright forgery of documentation.

A war that should never have happened. There, is where you will find war crimes galore. As the Nuremberg Tribunals declared, aggressive war sows the seeds for all other war crimes.

We have a Congress that, as a whole, has abdicated its Constitutional duty.

The Constitution is in shreds.

BUT…

As bad as all of this seems, fortunately, we now know that Paris Hilton, whoever she is, can read a script better than John McCain, whoever he is.

Paris has the money on hand for an ad. McCain will wish he left Paris alone. Now we know Hollywood and make believe. Paris is the brightest star but she isn't dumb either. She know when to pour on the stupidity. Grandpa Hilton and Daddy/Mommy will make sure their rich friends don't give money to the McCain fund. Yes I did notice who Paris thinks might be her running mate. All this McCain did to attack Obama and use Paris and Britney along the way. At lease Paris is letting the World know what Toby Keith was saying what White People sound like. Yes Paris is white and rich as she is the example of being White in America. As kids look for role models such as Paris, Britney and Hanna Montana with all their Christian American Values our children should learn. We have to look to example of our Government leaders who lie, cheat and steal under the oath and God. We will raise our kids to be like George W. Bush a man who became President because his Daddy paid for it. Cheney would sell his Mother for oil and lie about it under oath. Look to Pelosi and Feinstein who got kick backs to cooperate with the White House. So many criminals so little time.

I think this was an good rebuttal to "white haired, wrinkly" dude. And besides that, she is HOT!!!. If this dude wins in November, I will have lost all hope in the election process. It was quite clear to me that in both 2000 and 2004, that the election process was fixed. I'm only hoping all the glitches have been fixed by now. Because of the corruptness in the white house over the past 8 years, this country is now in the worst shape ever. Let's bring it all back this year and get the damn republicans out of office. WE CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER 4 YEARS OF LIES AND CORRUPTION............ It is indeed a time for change.

Let's not forget that PH is an American citizen, and as such has the right to use her freedom of speech, just like every other citizen. I can't believe how many levels of misogyny I find here--as if she doesn't have the right to free speech because of who she is and how she looks. Well, Paris is a girl who couldn't make it through high school and had to get her GED, even as an extremely privileged person. This speaks to disability not stupidity. Yet she is very cognizant of the society she lives in and her place in it. Most of us can't say the same.

Very early on she started to make her own money by being her own "brand". Read the cover story Vanity Fair did on her a few years ago. This is a woman who knows what she's doing, in spite of her limitations.

Please spare me this in the future. "I'm Paris Hilton and I'm hot and you're not."

I really don't think this helps anyone - McCain or Obama. And your observation that Paris seems smarter than McCain rings true, but it also tells me that she doesn't have to pander to the voters on either side of the aisle. In other words she also sounds smarter than Obama.

Problem is she isn't. This woman had the financial resources to hire a P.R. firm of some kind and do all the work for her without having to be responsive to the center of the aisle.

And she isn't exactly being complimentary to Obama. Perhaps the proper response from Obama and McCain is to take more responsible positions without regard to the perceived center.

It's good that she's not being complimentary to Obama! I was scared watching it the first time that she would say something overtly positive about him, making her ad political or -- truly scary -- some kind of endorsement of Obama. Instead, she hit back at McCain in a way that showed how trivial and shallow his ad was. That she's a shallow person is what makes it so freaking brilliant. It was really devoid of politics or side-taking (e.g., her "compromise" combining of off shore drilling and alternative energy comes after finding the best beach). I don't care if she did it for her own bruised sensitivities. What matters to me is that she highlighted the vapidity of McCain's. I suspect her ad will greatly overshadow McCain's.

Even in the Keith Olberman subtext.

Because it's forbidden, it will gain in popularity.

I suspect McCain's people and his supporters are getting it yanked because they want to make sure it goes viral. Or not...

I have a feeling this will spawn a lot of similar ads from the YouTube community.

How will McCain respond? Will he make a speech proclaiming that is un-Old?

You wake up - that wasn't my point at all. I thought it was funny, but I'm of the opinion that this is nothing more than a national distraction that the MSM will cling to ad nauseam.

Paris made this video to point out that she is not going to be a pawn of either party and that her name will not be used by either party; I certainly don't blame her for that. People on this thread seem to think this was some sort of slam on McCain and endorsement of Obama. It is neither; it a slam on the entire political process and it is critical of both candidates. She basically said, "Don't mess with the Hiltons. McCain, Don't use me to further your campaign. Obama, Don't use this response to further yours." And I think she was justified in doing so.

This is about as relevant as yesterday's 9-1-1 story about the woman receiving the wrong items at the drive-thru window. You'd never know, from the MSM, that we were at war in two countries.
