She’s had to put up with Barack for the past two years with his run for the Presidency of the United States. For her patience and hard work, the President-elect is giving her $30,000 Harmony ring that’s made by top Italian designer Giovanni Bosco, who is based at Valenza Po near Alessandria.

Made of rhodium, the world’s most expensive metal and is encrusted with diamonds. The crown jewels are also made of rhodium, so Michelle Obama’s new ring will be sure to turn heads and keep her happy for a good while.

President-Elect Barack Obama announced last week that he would be posting a weekly address via YouTube to discuss key current issues.  Today, the first of these “fireside chats” was posted on YouTube.  He brings urgency to key issues like unemployment and the failing auto industry.

Thanks Gizmodo!

Apparently, there was a whole lot going on Tuesday night apart from Obama winning the Presidential election.  Apparently, social networking sites like Twitter revealed that not only were people running down their neighborhood streets, but some were expressing some election night passions, giving rise to speculation that maternity wards in blue states would be unusually busy in nine months time.

The phrase “Obama Baby” has already been indentified and defined by Urban Dictionary.

“A child conceived after Obama was proclaimed President by way of celebratory sex, or any baby born under Barack Obama’s term(s),” is the entry.

It helpfully adds an example of its use: “I was born July 2009. I’m an Obama baby!”

Well, guess we’ll be keeping a close eye on the raise in population nine months from now.  You guys think this theory’s going to hold true?

Congratulations to Barack Obama for becoming the next President of the United States!! CNN is reporting that he has won California, giving him the edge needed to break 270 electoral votes.  Virginia has also gone to Obama, giving Barack 297 electoral votes in total so far.

The 44th President of the United States will also be the first Black President of the United States.  Look for Obama to make his speech in Chicago tonight.

The Obama camp just released this clip of Barack and his family heading to the polls earlier this morning and submitting his ballot. Wonder who they voted for? If you haven’t run out to the voting booths, then you should really go do that. Right now. Seriously. Go.

Thanks Bryan for the video!

It’s been eight long years since we last saw the “wassup” boys from Budweiser make an appearance.  Well, they’re back and with full force.  They’ve released a two-minute clip that shows how their lives are affected by the declining economy and everything else.  It doesn’t stop them from staying true to what matters.

Check the clip after the jump.

Talk about “product placement.”  EA has confirmed that they have approved atleast one ad that’s popped up on X360 screens.  The above ad might be the first of many ads by Obama’s team, but they have said that they’ll continue to approve ads by “credible political candidates.” 

Leave it to the Obama campaign to make an iPhone app that does more than most of the other apps in the Apple Store.  You like repping the man of change, when you don’t know anything about him?  Well, don’t worry, because this app’s got everything you need to convince your Independent neighbor to vote for Barack next month.  Check out the features and images below.
