Before the festivities yesterday, Elisabeth Hasselbeck was on the floor of the Xcel filming footage for a segment on The View. She interviewed Stephan Baldwin, who, like her, is among the minority of Hollywood stars who are unabashed Republicans.

After the interview was over, a fan approached Hasselbeck to express her dismay at The View's increasingly liberal leanings. "I stopped watching because they're so angry," said the middle-aged woman.

"Keep watching for me," Elisabeth urged. "Or just watch Fox News."

The fan concurred that Fox News was the only way to get accurate information about what's really happening in the country.

"I watch Fox News. That always makes me feel better," Elisabeth said.

I'm guessing the folks at ABC News aren't going to be too happy about that.

Colin Powell's break from the dark side is complete:

Sources say former Secretary of State Colin Powell will endorse Barack Obama at the Democratic National Convention, Weekly Standard Editor Bill Kristol told FOX News exclusively on Thursday.

“He may well give a speech at the Democratic convention explaining his endorsement of Obama,” Kristol said, citing inside sources.

“This is not an absolute done deal, but these people are very confident that Powell will endorse Obama,” Kristol said, adding that he thinks Powell still has “a high respect” for John McCain, Obama’s Republican rival.

Jon Voight was once famous for being the bumpkin prostitute in Midnight Cowboy, but lately his only claim to fame has been producing the sperm that imparted half of Angelina Jolie's genetic gifts. And Voight has never let us forget it--he made numerous appearances talking about Angelina's pregnancy and state of health even when he was estranged from her and had less fresh gossip about her than the average Entertainment Tonight fan.

This is the man who decided to get up on a high horse about family values in Washington Times. In a letter published by the conservative rag, Voight accuses Democratic Presidential nominee Barack Obama of "sowing the seeds of socialism" in our youth and of being a messianic figure with feet of clay.

The Round Mound of Rebound is shooting off his mouth again, calling Conservatives "fake Christians" on CNN:

He also claims he'll run for governor of Alabama in 2014. What kind of crazy state would elect as governor a TV personality/athlete best known for making indefensible statements?

I'd love to see Frank Caliendo ring in on this:

Taking a cue from SNL, we're debuting our own Digital Short. You can also find a lower-res version on YouTube here. And here's the embed:

A NOTE TO VIEWERS: We are in no way intending to insult anyone's religious sensibilities, but rather to provide a parody of how politicians co-opt religion in service of earthly ends. When it comes to religion and politics, we follow the advice of a wise man: “Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.”
