What's that? You'd really like to watch a video in which Paris Hilton talks about US energy policy?

Yes, I'm afraid it is a video of Paris Hilton. Wait, though. In it, she responds to the McCain campaign's decision to use her image in an ad mocking Obama's celebrity, and offers her own energy policy proposals. Parts of it are really quite funny -- and, what's weirder, intentionally so. How much more odd can this election campaign get? [Funny or Die]

The McCain campaign, deluged by inquiries, responds: "It sounds like Paris Hilton supports John McCain's 'all of the above' approach to America's energy crisis -- including both alternatives and drilling. Paris Hilton might not be as big a celebrity as Barack Obama, but she obviously has a better energy plan."
