This Little Kid is Cool and Not Cool at the Same Time

Yeah, we're nearly a month past the election, but that doesn't mean we should stop little kids from expressing their political views. Because when I want political endorsements, I ALWAYS turn to tykes.

Not only would this little kid "make the Pittsburgh Steelers president," she would also "vote for them."

I think you got it backwards, kid.

However, this little girl is obviously a fake Steelers fan. She's only "making" the Steelers president because her dad is a fan. Plus, she endorses John McCain, because Obama wants to "take the rich peoples' money and give it to the lazy people", whereas McCain "wants them to get their own jobs."

Guess she didn't see that nearly every Steeler (and the organization) this side of Lynn Swann (and Hank Williams Jr.) backed Barry Obamy.

Oh well. I'll let it slide. You know, since the election is over. And because this girl is like 3.

Rock on. Peace out!

Dan Rooney Endorses Obama

As noted on PSaMP before, the Steelers are Democrats. Well, except for Lynn Swann.

The latest Obama-endorser is owner Dan Rooney. He joins Franco Harris and Jerome Bettis as Obama supporters.

"As a grandfather and a citizen of this community, I think Barack Obama's thoughtful, strategic approach is important to America," Rooney said. "When I hear how excited young people seem to be when they talk about this man, I believe he will do what is best for them, which is to inspire them to be great Americans."

Solid quote.

This is a bit of a surprise, seeing as how Rooney doesn't usually endorse candidates.

Apparently, the endorsement comes on the heels of stupid Dan Onorato foolishly giving Hillary Clinton a personalized Steelers jersey with Gary Anderson's old number. Thanks for setting the record straight, Roon!

Political Dissent Among Steel Curtain Steelers?

Looks like politics break up the ties that bind.

From this picture, it appears both Jerome Bettis and Franco Harris are Democratic supporters. More importantly, they're Barack Obama-Democratic supporters.

Political endorsements have taken their toll on the Steel Curtain Steelers, as it seems. Back when (Republican) Lynn Swann was running for governor of Pennsylvania, the only hints of Steeler support came from this guy:

...and he was probably smashed out of his mind.

However, I don't know how long beatified bowler Bettis will be on board with Barack (The Bus is in the Bowling Hall of Fame). Especially after the presidential candidate recently posted a 37 at some lanes in Altoona.
