WASHINGTON - Attention, America: Paris has spoken. Paris Hilton, the blonde, doe-eyed celebrity thrust into the presidential campaign in an ad by Republican candidate John McCain, issued a tart rebuttal Tuesday, albeit in a scantily clad, tongue-in-cheek kind of way.

 

 

Last week, McCain launched an ad comparing Democratic rival Barack Obama to Hilton and Britney Spears, suggesting Obama was no more than a celebrity candidate unready to lead the nation.

 

Hilton initially shied away from the debate over the ad and its effectiveness. But she responded Tuesday with a spoof on the comedy Web site Funny or Die.

 

"Hey America, I'm Paris Hilton and I'm a celebrity, too. Only I'm not from the olden days and I'm not promising change like that other guy. I'm just hot," Hilton said, speaking as she reclined in a pool chair in a revealing bathing suit and a pair of pumps. "But then that wrinkly, white-haired guy used me in his campaign ad, which I guess means I'm running for president. So thanks for the endorsement white-haired dude."

 

"I want America to know that I'm, like, totally ready to lead," she said.

 

She then discusses energy policy, and suggests a hybrid of McCain's offshore oil drilling plan and Obama's incentives for new energy technology.

 

"Energy crisis solved! I'll see you at the debates," she said,

 

McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds said Hilton appears to support his candidate's "all of the above" energy solution.

 

"Paris Hilton might not be as big a celebrity as Barack Obama, but she obviously has a better energy plan," Bounds said.

 

Hilton's mother, who with her husband donated $4,600 to McCain's campaign earlier in the year, has said McCain's ad is "a complete waste of the country's time and attention at the very moment when millions of people are losing their homes and their jobs."

 

McCain's ad uses footage of Obama's reception by Germans during a recent trip to Berlin to dismiss him as just another celebrity. Obama's campaign has criticized the ad; McCain has defended it as humorous.

 

Hilton's rebuttal includes plenty of humor at McCain's expense.

 

An announcer calls him "the oldest celebrity in the world, like super-old, old enough to remember when dancing was a sin and beer was served in a bucket," and asks, "but is he ready to lead?" Hilton's spoof also intersperses images of McCain and Yoda from Star Wars and the cast of television's "The Golden Girls."

From the McCain camp...

 

McCain campaign spokesperson Tucker Bounds used word of the video to take a stinging swipe at Obama. "Sounds like Paris is taking the 'All of the Above' energy approach that John McCain has advocated -- both alternatives and drilling. Perhaps the reality is that Paris has a more substantive energy plan than Barack Obama," Bounds said in a statement.

McCain may have won me over...

 

John McCain volunteered his wife Cindy McCain to participate in a beauty pageant in Sturgis, South Dakota that has women competing without a top on. McCain said to the crowd:

 

"I was looking at the Sturgis schedule, and noticed that you had a beauty pageant, so I encouraged Cindy to compete. I told her that with a little luck, she could be the only woman to serve as both the First Lady and Miss Buffalo Chip."

 

It is unclear if McCain knew the specifics of the pageant, but the audience loved the sentiment. The only event that could have gotten McCain more votes in Sturgis would have been to enter Cindy in a mud wrestling contest, with Cindy pitted against Michelle Obama.

I think even though Cindy McCain is older than Michelle Obama (probably had a lot more work done, too though) she's still more attractive. I don't even have to see your video to see that.

LMFAO... I finally got to see the link and heard on the radio the other day, what Miss Buffalo Chip is-lol... McCain, clueless and talking out of his ass as always...

He was talking to a bunch of bikers in Sturgis. It's a big rally point and a lot of fun. A vast majority of bikers are ex military and he was pandering to them. There's a lot of us old folk that ride still ya know. And Cindy probably wouldn't have won Miss Buffalo Chip but she's still hot for her age. I wouldn't throw her out of bed for eating crackers. And He was giving kudo's to his wife, what's wrong with that?

I know. I admitted in my comments before, she's not bad looking. Even better than Obama's wife who's younger.

I started reading your comment, got the "maybe I'll even wet my" part and got excited, then disappointed but still a bit excited. :D

Don't get excited about Chi and her wet t-shirt promises. She won't follow through. She's a tease like that.

I'm trusted by more women.
