Freaks

So appropo.

Religious politics

and today the news about "One Million Moms (?)" haranguing
J.C. Penney for hiring Ellen D?
Maybe they should hire better PR...maybe even get some
opinions from the clear thinking people in this country before
making these moves.

I don't typically shop at JC, but I will from now on.
These decisions will always backfire.

John D. Raffaelli

It would have been so much easier for the Komen foundation to
ask board member Mr. Raffaelli to step down. Even tho he is a Democrat (?) from
Texarkana (and WTF cares?), this is going to take a giant bite out
of what that foundation does...kind of like what happened to Nestle
and breastfeeding.
I like that PP is garnering funds but too bad it has to be blowback
on Komen's usual good works.

BTW, support your local PP with your money. Send directly.
PPs actually prevent abortions by providing birth control.
Family planning, testing for diseases and healthy pregnancy
planning are 90% of what PPs do.

Pulling a Boehner

Is it any wonder why the Congress has such low ratings in opinion polls...
Idiots running the asylum, as usual.

Can we get some intelligent, morally uncorrupt, forward-thinking,
hard working for us, the people, to run in the upcoming elections?

I can't wrap my mind around why anyone would vote Republican
anymore in this country. Their "leaders" are just embarrassing.

A factual accounting of US invasion and destruction

would be good...who is in charge now..what religious sect...how much money
is this country giving them, getting back in oil revenues if any...who is still
living in the embassy, on the bases etc.
Are there journalists still there? Can we get a true picture of
what life is like after Bush Inc.'s invasion and destruction?

A covert force could have taken out Saddam any time...he was our
guy for years.
A factual accounting is necesssary.

A Newt and Tiffanys

The luster of that little blue box is gone.
Like unveiling Camelot, the reality is clear...
it's just cardboard, albeit nice heavy stuff
painted an appealing shade of blue
but the thrill is gone.

The Newt shops there, runs his fingers over
the glass cases, his sweaty hands palming the goods, his arm drapped over his latest
dalliance, expecting the big pay off from
a purchase of a diamond found in any
generic shop.

It's just an overpriced bobble for an overpriced
dollie both bought on credit from an overpriced bloviator.

I'm over you Tiffanys, but your box is nice.
