If you're like me, you read just a fraction of the news stories that you used to read because the headlines themselves not only tell you all you need to know, they render you "stroke imminent!"
Here's the latest example:
"Obama Takes a Swig With Black Scholar, White Cop"
The scene is contrived, designed to rescue two rank racists, and who's mentioned last? The only decent man at the party!
And the headline is from FOX!!!
I'm not sure how much longer I can go on...
Politics is a delicate subject involving the most indelicate people... I spent the last week looking over my political blogging of days past, and I decided to inflict these on you. They're my favorite comments and comebacks from back then... along with a few newer ones...
- A guy named Francis once accused me of being the rudest person he'd ever encountered online (sound familiar?). In an effort to change his opinion, I asked if he was the same Francis who made some movies with Donald O'Connor? He wasn't amused, proving that some people just can't be shmoozed!
- Notice Of Name Change: She's so fat again that Kirstie Alley has just changed her name to Kirstie Broadway.
- A recent headline read: Cigarette smoking may inhibit Parkinson's.
- A recent report said there's been a huge drop in tourism in recent years. That might sound ominous, but it's not. The truth is, because of all the new restrictions after 9/11, people find it's way less hassle just to come here illegally.
- An Everyday Question For My Friends, Both Foreign And Domestic: Why am I talking to you if you're a foreigner or a domestic? Oh relax, it's a joke! I talk to my wife, and she's a foreigner who's never been domesticated!
- Have you seen those Jennie Craig ads where Kirstie Alley has apparently ballooned up so nicely that they can't show her from the bosom down? The company's new tagline is: "Gain twenty pounds for twenty dollars!* (excluding the cost of food)"
*Cost of Ms. Alley's new cookbook.
- Regarding the death penalty, if the various states would only just advertise for executioners, I'm there! You know how people say there's one thing they really want to do before they die? Well...!?
- I'd be willing to execute people for twenty bucks + tip! It's like when Woody Allen told Peter O'Toole in What's New Pussycat that he got a job dressing the Paris showgirls for twenty francs a week. "That's not very much, " O'Toole noted. "It's all I can afford," Allen replied! "Hi, I'm Ted, I'll be your executioner tonight... can I get you a cocktail"
- Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't most people see a blog as an opportunity to exchange ideas? That is SO not how I see it. Because generally speaking, I not only have all the ideas I need, I know what works, what will work, and what ideas I'm willing to consider from others that differ from that I know works and will work. So this blog is a place for the free exchange of ideas - mine!
- Did you see the headline today? "WWF: Global warming to destroy 60% of Amazon by 2030"
- I couldn't care less. I've never shopped there, and with any luck, I'll be dead by then anyway. Besides, when did wrestlers become economists?
- El Presidente, Jorge Whatsaborder Arbusto, went to Capitol Hill yesterday to lobby for his immigration plan, aka, The-Not-So-Great Society!
- Some Republicans such as Trent Lott and Lindsay Graham were praising Ted Kennedy. Michael Chertoff even said Kennedy was "awesome." If you think you're in the Twilight Zone, you are - the Twilight of the Republic.
- Latest Harry Reid Opinion Poll
19% hold a favorable view of him
45% hold an unfavorable view
36% think he's a tall grass
- The media is now so biased and unrelenting in pushing Obama's programs that I think they deserve a new label. They've been called the Mainstream Media, and the State-Run Media, Me, I prefer the Hydraulic Press.
- I figure conservatives are failing to hold George W accountable when they talk about our current problems because it's obviously overkill - like bulldozing a bush!
- Liberals should, in no way, take my comment to mean that I agree with any position they hold. First die, then we'll talk.
- When I look at George Bush now, I see O.J. Simpson but without the the latter's athletic ability - or intelligence.
- I know, I know, it's a small gesture, but what do you expect, I'm a small guy!
- To my mind, the biggest problem with freedom of speech is that it seems to benefit idiots far more that is does rational people.
- A columnist once asked, "Is George Bush President of Mexico?" I think a better question is: when is a President not a President? Answer: When he's a Bush.
- Liberals, they spend half their days hurling charges, and the other half fabricating them. The media makes sure they never have to justify them, and they never feel shame. To me it's all philosophical: They don't think, therefore they're not.
- Scientists have noticed that once indestructible ice sheets on Greenland and Antarctica have begun to creep toward the sea." So what, everyone wants beachfront property. Why should glaciers be any different? Besides, you know you can lead a glacier to water, but you can't make it sink!
- Have you ever noticed that California is shaped like a sock? Would somebody please "darn" it?!
- This just in: Obama names Apology Czar - apologizes for not doing it sooner!
Listening to all the latest outrages, my wife went off on Democrats again yesterday.
And I stopped her again.
Because the Democrats aren't to blame for a single thing that's happening.
Republicans and conservative are.
They're responsible for all of it!
And you need look no further than the Soda-Anti-Cracker hearings to see why.
If you didn't see any of that spectacle or see any coverage of it, you may think that Republicans and conservatives are decent, law -abiding people who want to return to what America used to be.
So how do they/you plan to do that?
By electing more Republicans?
That's how we got where we are - you voted, you failed to criticize, you brought us Obama!
Not a single Republican hurled any epithets at Sodajerk!
Some Republicans may even vote for healthcare "reform."
There was never a greater need for a strong third party.
And please, this is not the time for someone to suggest that we align with the Libertarian nuts.
We need people who don't care about a career in government. People who are willing to out-shout the Democrats.
We need people who are willing to attack and not care about consequences.
