Lots are whores when politics are involved.

Guilt shouldn't enter into this but I do feel bad when I accidentally open my blog and see live not posted in weeks--but for the last week I've been banished to my bed to get healthy. Still don't know what kicked my ass but finally I think I'm turning the corner. Hell, I'll be glad to get away from this neighborhood, all they do is cough.

Staying in bed means lots of TV because for a lot of the time I just needed some noise. So, because it is close to November elections, mostly what you hear is all of those political commercials. They are all bastards especially Fiorina. I can not stand to see her smirky, I-know-better-than-you-dumb-peasants smile. Her little head waggle when she taking about how she'll do so much better for us poor Californios--how have we survived without her? I didn't like her in '08 with McCain And I don't like her now.

Don't forget to get out and vote.

Dolores, can I call Newt a putz?

My very good Jewish friend says I should not call anyone a "putz" because it is a very distasteful word, so I refrained from using the word but I have to call Gingrich out for his statement regarding the Islamic Center being built two miles from ground zero.

This is what the former House speaker and possible (just kill me now) 2012 presidential candidate had to say,

"Nazis don't have the right to put up a sign next to the holocaust museum in Washington … "

Let's just logically think this through, shall we?

• Were there any Nazis that didn't follow, whole-heartedly, Hitler?
• Are there any Nazis today that don't follow the Ayran Nation philosophy?
• Are there any Nazis today that follow an altruistic form of religion?
• Are there decent Islamic people in this country?
• Were there Muslims that died on 9/11?
• Are there Muslims in our military right now fighting in the Middle East for the American way of life?
• Do they have the right to practice their religion here in these United States?

Newt, you can't cherry-pick the Bill of Rights for your own beliefs. They're for all of us, as hard as that might be for you to swallow, ALL.

Now, go home.

Oh, and you are a putz.

Get the elephant gun!

For your viewing pleasure and damn edification!

Funny cartoon this morning from political cartoonist Tom Toles. Most people can't seem to see past this giant beast to realize that the GOP controls everything in this country right now and if we ignore it, the evil empire will continue to feed us just right amount of pablum, baby cereal for you younger people, to keep us fat, dumb and happy.

Wake up and smell the money.

All this kafuffle about the American ports spinning your head? Read "cleptocracy" for a great explanation of what's going on with Dubya, Dubai and the Dodos in Washington.

Cheney: indecent exposure

I really wanted to post volumes about our dear Vice President but the more I read the more depressed I feel so I've decided just to mention how indecent he is. That's the only word right now I can use. I'd rather be more eloquent but "motherfucker" keeps coming to mind so I'll stick with indecent. The definition of the word, "offensive to public moral values, immodest," seems to stick to him like glue so indecent is what I'll call him for now. Just read any news article about him for the last three days I think you'll agree he has exposed himself for what he really is, indecent. You can almost hear his teeth grinding as he back-peddled about the Murtha incident. Face it Dick, this is an immoral war you and the other henchmen dragged us into.

What I actually wanted this post to be about was being thankful. So what if we only get mushy this time of year and collectively voice our thanks; I'm thankful for being able to live in a country that allows me to voice my opinions about anything. I hope we'll be able to do it forever.

Who's on Frist?

Majority Leader Bill Frist is more concerned with the security leak than he is with the secret prision. Hells bells, without the security leak, latin for someone with a conscience, we'd never know about this stuff. You think Frist would have said anything? No.

Also in this comedy skit we call politics, Pat Robertson is calling in the "wrath of God" for the poor folks in Pennsylvania. Not unlike when he warned Orlando with the same biblical threats when they flew rainbow flags in support of sexual diversity. Either God didn't care or he doesn't have a map because Orlando has pretty much been spared of any hurricane activity.

If God didn't strike that old fool dead for calling for the assassination of Venezuela's President for being a critic of Bush then he's surely not listening to Robertson, too bad the Christian Coalition does. Take a clue from your creater, don't listen to Pat Robertson.

Let them eat Yellow Cake

I think I saw the President. If watching two black limos with an assortment of black SUVs, police and California Highway Patrol whizzing down the freeway at a ticket-worthy 80 miles miles an hour, then it qualifies as a viewing.

I live near the Reagan Presidential Library and on Friday a new exhibit was dedicated. They've built a hanger and dragged Reagan's Air Force One up the hill for display. Us peons can see it next week because the President and his cronies had a "gala" grand opening. So this is why I think I saw the President--at the very least I saw his entourage--or it could have been a trained monkey, but I saw something.

I would not be true to myself if I didn't mention how disappointed I am with the current administration. It's not that I've never been lied to before but not to this extent. Listen, after 911 I never thought twice about invading Afghanistan but never did I understand the Iraq invasion. At the least they should have found Walmart-sized building full of weapons that could distruct the masses. What did they find? No, I mean someone tell me, what the hell did they find? I'm waiting--2000 families of dead soldiers are waiting, someone one tell us why we invaded that country. And please, don't lie to us. We're oh so very tired of lies.

But I did see him, blasting down the freeway in a big hurry to get there. Not to the place I want him to be but in a big hurry to be someplace. I'd like to think while he was speeding along he might have had a quiet moment to think about how Paul Wolfowitz, Lewis Libby and lest we forget, Dick Cheney, might have gotten him into this mess--and how was he going to get us out.

On second thought, maybe it was a trained Monkey in the back of that limo.
