DON'T GET NO BETTER'N THAT...

Most people don't realize that I am the Jets' secret weapon. It took me a full eight games before it dawned on that they lost each time I watched them play. Since I started "listening" to Jets' games while sitting in front of the TV with a sack over my head, they catapaulted back into action -- and into the playoffs.

Who Ya Gonna Call?

If you're George Bush, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, Condi Rice, or any of the rest of the Project for a New American Century gang, and you're slip-sliding around in New World Order slime -- who you gonna call?

The Great American Dittoheads

I try not to listen to Sean Hannity at all...ever. But I do a bit of cake decorating and, when I'm at the shop, since there's no TV nor computer, I listen to the radio. On Dec 16, 2005,I was too busy to walk across the room and switch channels so listened to both Rush Limbaugh and Hannity.

When It Comes To Reform....
SHARE More Sharing
They just can't help themselves. To Republicans, "reform" is to go to great lengths to change their image, to give the impression that, although they didn't do it, they're really really sorry they got caught, and they won't do it again -- get caught, that is. Then they pass some "red meat" legislation to show they mean it this time -- and continue to march down that same corrupt road.

GIVE THAT BOY A STANDING "YO!"
SHARE More Sharing
What is it about Kansas that makes people lose touch with reality and go flying off in all directions? In the current issue of Time, Mike Allen teams up with Michael Duffy, Karen Tumulty, Massimo Calabresi, and Matthew Cooper to give George Bush a rollicking standing "YO!" for his sterling performance at Kansas State University last week.

I Don't Need No Steenkin' Oversight!
SHARE More Sharing
In mid-September, George Bush submitted to the Senate a list of his cronies to various positions within the administration. When the Committee balked at the lack of qualifications of some of them -- especially Julie Myers, neice of former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Richard B. Myers and wife of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff's current chief of staff, John F. Wood -- Bush did what he does best. He flipped Congress the bird and waited until last week to make recess appointments.

SENATE GETS AN OIL CHANGE...
SHARE More Sharing
Where do you get "holy oil" these days? On E-Bay? WalMart? I didn't even know there was a demand for such an item in the 21st Century. But now, thanks to the right good reverend Rob Schenck, one of God's own evangelical Christians and president of Washington's National Clergy Council, the government machine needs an oil change in order to make the right decisions.

AMERICA -- WAKE THE HELL UP!
SHARE More Sharing
I think the Republicans would love to see the Dems run Hillary in 2008 because they know, as do we, that this country -- the world -- is not ready for a U.S. woman president. I am not a bigot, but I have half sense and one eye, and I know that it will be generations, if ever, before Americans will be comfortable with a woman telling them what to do. If you don't believe me, take a trip through Redneck country -- hit the NASCAR circuit -- and see where you land...

"ROVING" AIR AMERICA RADIO...

Anybody notice that people are calling Air America Radio hosts every day, every show, plaintively complaining -- "We are losing Air America in this area"..."They're taking Air America off next week"... "Why did my radio station cut Air America?"

U.S. TO FISK -- WE DON'T NEED YOUR STEENKIN' TRUTH!

On September 23, the venerable Z-Mag published a startling bit of news by reporter and media critic Doug Ireland -- news that should be on the front pages of every U.S. newspaper and "breaking news" on network and cable TV -- U.S. immigration officials have denied Robert Fisk entry into the United States!

You know, I just got to thinking...these greedy power-mad criminals have no intention of leaving in 2008. Think about it. If we do have an election, it will be because the neo-conservatives in control have confidence that the electronic voting machines will elect Jeb.

The Open Portal of Bush's Mind...

On Saturday (Aug 13), writer Peter Fredson posted an intriguing piece on the Bellacaio site, wherein he admits he shares the same problem with George Bush that most thinking people have -- there is no doubt that Bush is a shallow, unlearned, idiotic bully; yet he maintains an eerie control over the entire government.
