Paris Hilton Launches Fake Presidential Campaign With Martin Sheen (Video)

By The Staff at wowOwow.com

Paris Hilton has just released another "Paris Hilton for President" campaign video.

In this video — found on FunnyOrDie.com — Hilton seeks the advice of Martin Sheen, who played U.S. President Jed Bartlet on the hit drama "The West Wing," as she gears up for the campaign trail. Inevitably, Sheen, "one of our greatest fake presidents," stands to learn a thing or two from Paris as well. This is Hilton’s second mock campaign video. wowOwow reported two months ago on her first, also on FunnyOrDie.com, in which she responded to Sen. McCain’s ad comparing his presidential opponent, Sen. Obama, to Paris.

Click the play button below to see what advice "Jed" has for Paris about her policies on the economy, the war and how to prevent MC Hammer-style bankruptcy.

OMG, that is so hilarious, and yet, what she says about “Fo-Po” and the mortgages makes a lot more sense than anything I’ve heard Sarah Palin say.

I haven’t either, Ms. Dee. She must be too busy trash talking Obama to even think about anything else. I can’t wait til she goes back to Alaska. They “must” realize their negativity is causing a backlash! Maybe not. Can’t wait for this election to be over

fp, Hello! I am not up on net shorthand,so I have no idea what this reply means. I have gotten the info from the other night though…”Afghanistan is not Iraq,” said Gen. David D. McKiernan. Another facet of the Iraq strategy that McKiernan doubts can be duplicated in Afghanistan is the U.S. military’s programs to recruit tribes to oppose insurgents. That effort, begun in 2006 in Iraq’s Anbar province, led a loose coalition of tribes to turn against the Sunni insurgent group al-Qaeda in Iraq and side with the U.S. military. It was expanded in early 2007 in a U.S. military effort to hire local tribesmen and former insurgents to serve as armed guards in their neighborhoods. In Iraq, nearly 100,000 of the volunteers, primarily Sunnis, are on the job. In October, the Government Accountability Office assessed that of the eight political benchmarks set forth by President Bush and Congress, the Iraqi government had only “met one legislative benchmark and partially met another.” Since then, progress has stalled on key areas laid out by Bush: an oil law, de-Baathification reform, a process for amending the Constitution and provincial elections. Though the “surge” has helped Sunni Arabs in Anbar province push al Qaeda in Iraq to the sidelines, the decision to turn on al Qaeda was not caused by the “surge.” U.S. commanders wisely “took advantage of these changing dynamics,” but they did not cause them. Additionally, as al Qaeda’s presence has decreased, sectarian strife has increased. Only politicians and pundits are speaking of victory. At the end of last year, Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, cautioned that “recent security gains are fragile and still reversible.” “We are trying to be cautious as we describe the progress that is taking place in Iraq,” Petraeus told Foreign Affairs. “There are a number of concerns that we do have.” For the one year anniversary of Bush’s surge speech, the Center for American Progress’s Brian Katulis and Peter Juul have laid out “four ticking time bombs” in Iraq that must be addressed. Instead of pre-maturely declaring victory as they so often do, McCain and Lieberman should take note and exercise the caution that Gen. Petraeus advises. On Tuesday, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Middle Eastern Affairs Mark Kimmitt said that there’s “maybe” a “three in 10″ chance “the surge will be a success.” “Afghanistan doesn’t just need more ‘boots on the ground,’ ” Adm. Mullen told Congress in September. “It needs more trucks on those roads, more teachers in those schools and more trained judges and lawyers in those courts.” “Foreign investment. Alternative crops. Sound governance. The rule of law. These are the keys to success in Afghanistan,” he added. “We can’t kill our way to victory and no armed force anywhere — no matter how good — can deliver these keys alone.” community as well. “What we see is very substantial progress. But that progress has by itself created a climate in which Iraqi leaders and factions feel much more secure about advancing their own cause,” said former Pentagon analyst Anthony Cordesman. Iraqi politicians often see other sectarian and ethnic groups in the country “as rivals” rather than potential partners, Cordesman notes. That could mean the surge — which so successfully lowered violence — fails at its larger goal of providing some space for political peace to flourish. General Petraeus—whom Palin praised—said victory was never a word that we’d be able to use about Iraq

Afghanistan is insular and incredibly tribal—the Brits got the asses handed to them on a platter in the 1800’s by those same tribes, as did the Russians in the 1980’s —fighting there is incredibly difficult and dealing with a tribal culture that is still in may ways back in the 5th century is not going to be easy—but there is a good note: the Taliban have opened negotiations with the Saudis to end the conflict—it remains to be seen whether it will work. And they appear to have cut their ties with Al-Qaeda which is really good news—Afghanistan is run on vendetta, bribery , kidnapping, assassination and all the good things that a tribal society has as its tools. One cannot ever compare Iraq with the Afghanis. They are not a united nation and not likely to ever be as long as individual tribal structures are in place—and frankly I don’t see them going away any time in the far future. These are people who live in the 5-10th centuries and even tho they may have modern weapons, they still think in terms of 1000+ years ago. It’s a bitch of a situation and frankly I don’t see us doing much about it iuntil the taliban esp. gets its act together and concedes their hegemony.
