I Cannot Wait

Until George Ryan goes to jail.

Follow The Barcodes...

...to paraphrase Deep Throat.

Is anyone surprised? I'm not. I mean, I'm pretty sure my dad had a nuclear weapons program hidden under the driver's seat of his Mustang in the 80's, and if he could do it, then why not Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, or Pat Robertson?*

I just hope Robertson is senile enough to have forgotten where the button is -- he was voted "Most Likely To Launch a First Strike" by the Oral Roberts Class of 1902, after all.


* - Actually, that's where he hid his smokes; Silva Thins. Same diff.

Tube Steak

No, not a hot dog: test-tube meat.

This grossed me out. Not because I don't think it could be good; I'm pretty sure it will be, given time and thousands of focus groups that I will NOT participate in. It's gross in the Fast-Food Nation kind of way. I don't want to see behind the curtain.

A question that comes to mind: WWPD, What Will PETA Do?

Trust the Market

It will care for us all.

Especially when we need healthcare and we're poor.

Just look at how well hospitals in LA treat their "indigent" patients.

Get Geraldo In There With A Camera!! NOW!!!

In a world, where we get photos of the food between Julia Roberts' teeth and secure video of George W. Bush being told about the impending wipeout fo New Orleans before he lied about not being told about it, WHY, oh why, are there not pictures of the retarded (AFP's word, not mine) family of human quadrupeds in Turkey?!?

Get the torrent of the BBC Mar. 17 broadcast, please, someone, ANYONE.

I Refuse To Admit Agreement

But, hey, I'll take paleocon foreign policy over neocon. Every day.

Anyway, the rapidly aging George Will calls for an end to Bushrovik happy talk. We'll see if anyone in the GOP (Gibberish Over Policy) listens.

(And too bad he's too old and dim to apply his historical analogy about vocal and violent minorities hijacking parties and nations for decades to his own sad excuse for a party and our body politic. How did he ever win a Pulitzer???)

Babies and Bathwater Award

Goes to the douchebag from Kentucky, Sen. Jim Bunning (R. - surprised?), for his justification in killing proposed amendments to the Patriot Act which would protect the civil liberties of all Americans:

"Civil liberties do not mean much when you are dead."

Life before liberty. He must have left school around 5th grade, before they got to the part about Patrick Henry.
