New Presidential Computer Guy's Former Office Raided By FBI

The Really: President's Obama's choice for technology chief had his former office raided by the FBI investigating a bribery case.

The new Secretary In Charge Of Computers, Twitters and Facebook Pages Vivek Kundra, has taken a leave of from his new job in government. But if this guy had nothing to do with the bribery scam, why does he need to take the leave? The FBI says he is not the target but a contractor that he was in charge of prior to his government job is.

Kitchen Nightmare: "Oh, P*** O**!"


The Really: Is Gordon Ramsay in the middle of his very own Hell's Kitchen?

The recent New Great Depression has taught us it is not always clear what the mechanics of financial agreements are. Apparently no one in the government, SEC or on the talking heads news stations like CNBC really knows either so we don't want to comment on the sale of Chef Gordon Ramsay's LA restaurant with the confusing name (Gordon Ramsay at the London West Hollywood).

Let's just say we didn't ask from comment from the old boy because we knew what the answer would be: "P*** O**!!!!"

John McCain Says Quit Bailing Out Banks


The Really: Let them fail? Really? Why not just make them lend?

Senator John McCain went on a Fox talk show this weekend and has come to the conclusion that we need to stop bailing out GM, AIG or even the banks. Fine for a man with a big enough mattress to hide his money in but has anyone thought of the dislocations this would cause. And is this a suggestion for a national bank? Holy Constitution Batman!

Octo-Mom Blogs!


The Really: We like the new masters of radaronline.com (the Enquirer folks) because the artsy fartsy former editors and writers at Radar made us laugh too much and made us think too much...which hurt our heads.

Rove To Testify, But Not In The Light


The Really: Rove to finally be forced to answer questions under oath?

But before you get visions of Sweet Citizen Sam Ervin bumbling through a Watergate-like glare, just read the fine print over at The Caucus. It will be in deposition but not in public. He will be under oath and perjury would apply but you won't have to take off of work to watch it because it will not be televised...that is if you have a job.

The Really: This late night show hosting is easy!

Don't want to be too critical but Fallon's first show was sometimes a little uncomfortable to watch. DeNiro IS NOT an easy interview. Some highlights or lowlights here at Gawker.
