Barney Frank on Obama Tix: You're All S.O.L.
The Congressman from Massachusetts only had one piece of advice for the stars who can't get their grubby little mitts on a ticket to the Obama inauguration ... "run for Congress!"
Maybe Scarlett Johansson can score an extra ticket from Roland Burris.

Burris -- Did Flight Cost as Much as Senate Seat?
Blagojevich-approved Roland Burris will not be sworn into office in the Senate this morning -- but after arriving in DC last night, the politician got a brutal taste of just how unwelcome he may be.

Hillary Taps Bon Jovi For Economic Stimulus
Great news -- Bon Jovi will be performing at Hillary Clinton's presidential fundraiser! Wait, didn't anyone tell her the news?
The January 15 gig at Manhattan's Town Hall is being advertised as "a final evening in support of Hillary Clinton for President Debt Relief."
Looks like there's that final matter of the $6.3 mil her campaign still owes.

Palin -- Not In School Doesn't Mean Dropout
You know the difference between an unwed teen baby daddy who left high school to become an electrician and a HS dropout? Nothing, according to Sarah Palin.
She corrected several publications and their reports Levi Johnston, her daughter Bristol Palin's fiancé, dropped out of high school. He's doing it online, apparently, and Bristol is getting "her last credit" to graduate while taking care of her new baby Tripp. (Track, Trig ... Tripp. No, we don't get it either.)
The Governatrix also said she is "over the moon" about the new child, even though, she admits, the news of Bristol's pregnancy was "shocking."

Rick Warren -- Out of the Closet!
Rick Warren, the pastor who will deliver the invocation next month for Barack Obama, apparently is doing a little image-adjusting in West Hollywood.
We got this pic, taken yesterday at Out of the Closet thrift store. That's Warren on the right (naturally), his arm around Erol Sarabi, who is openly gay. Warren, who supports the ban on gay marriage which has not sat real well with some Obama supporters, bought 8 to 10 books, two of which were his own (that doesn't help with his Amazon ranking). Warren told Sarabi not to believe everything he reads, that he does a lot for AIDS research and was happy that Out of the Closet does free AIDS testing.
Warren also said he met with Melissa Etheridge recently and the two planned to have dinner together -- go figure.
By the way, Warren gave a signed copy of his book to Sarabi. The inscription from the Bible, Proverbs 19:21: "Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails."

Barack O-Spam-a -- Yes He Did
The Prez-elect has proven he has no problem with pork. Well, chopped pork shoulder with a variety of other meats mixed in.
On Sunday, reports People, Barack Obama stopped for a mid-golfing snack and got hot dogs, drinks, and something the Hawaiians call "Spam musubi," which is Spam and omelette on rice wrapped in seaweed. Yes, it's delicious, and we know it isn't going to his abs.
He also reportedly offered reporters beers on his tab, which they declined.

Tim McGraw -- Gunnin' for Gov
If George W. Bush can become President, Tim McGraw can be governor of Tennessee.
And that's exactly what he intends to do, says the New Republic. He's been considering the idea for a while, but apparently Tennessee Dems are heating up the stove on Tim, trying to get him to run against Bill Frist in 2010.
Imagine Faith Hill being First Lady of the Volunteer State. And we know he's got the abs for the job.

Bush to Obama -- No Movin' on Up
Lame duck just got lamer: George Bush isn't letting Barack Obama move into DC ten days early, because his peeps have got to party.
The Obamas had asked the President if they could check in early at Blair House, the official guest residence across from the White House, starting on January 5, because the Obama girls are starting school. But Bush's people rejected the request on the grounds that "receptions and gatherings" are being held there and the house won't be available for them until ten days later.
The official Obama camp have said they're cool with it. Right. Laura Bush's spokeswoman says it's a "non-story."

The mag filed a freedom of info request and was told "information specialists" would have to search all state email accounts – 70 in total.
During the campaign, a few of of Palin's emails from personal accounts leaked out, for free.
