hit ya in the ass on the way out…..
I’m not one to ever revel in the passing of another human being - no matter their background… but I also can’t say the world isn’t better better place today than it was a few days ago… The world definitely needs less hate and bigotry…
U.S. [...]
Now this is what I call a fantastic use of taxpayer money and political energy:
Florida Lawmakers Mull Ban On Ornamental Testicles
(Tallahassee, Florida) They’re proudly displayed by any self-respecting bull, but dangling big metal ones on the back end of a truck could be banned in Florida.
What the fuck… don’t these people have better things to [...]
in the ass on the way out Karl…
This is my favorite headline from Der Spiegel
Bush Loses Brain
Karl Rove, Bush’s most important advisor and often called ‘Bush’s Brain,’ has announced his resignation. He leaves behind over a decade of success as a Republican strategist — and a number of enemies. German commentators take a look.

just a few things that made me smile for your friday..
First a silly thing.. Little goofy jingle that made me smile so I had to share.. Click here
Then a wrap up on the democratic presidential forum on Logo last night. I only caught parts of it but its on the tivo so i’m going to [...]
I found a few interesting things that caught my attention and had to share..
First - an example of where being a greedy be-atch doesn’t pay.. Check this out:
Shopper picks up iPhone AND $800US
Here’s the story. This kid in Texas arrives at his local AT&T store at 6:00 AM on Friday the 29th to buy an [...]
To Vote….

Happy Tuesday!

Rather than blather on my own opinions about all the crazy crap that has been going on in Washington lately I’m going to leave it to others…
First - a serious commentary.. I heard this on KQED on the way to work yesterday and couldn’t agree more… Take a listen:

This is about a 10 minute segment but well worth listening to..

Just read this about the ejection of two people (Cindy Sheehan and the wife of a representative) for having shirts with war messages in the state of the union…
Briefly: Capitol Police drop charges over T-shirts
WASHINGTON The Capitol Police have dropped a charge of unlawful conduct against the anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan and apologized for ejecting [...]
I just found this page on the IMDB site (MAN I love that site for so many reasons)… This quote, this quote and this quote are just a few examples of why I love that show so much.. Largely because I can’t even fathom people with such integrity and moral center actually existing in our [...]
One off the blogs I read on a semi-regular basis is the blog of a gay republican (just cuz I don’t really get it and i’m still waiting for him to make a salient argument… but thats a fight for another day). In browsing this morning I found that he’d posted his results for one [...]
The population on Manihi was MUCh smaller and there was far less to do but it was VERY nice and the diving at ‘the drop off’ had more fish than I’ve ever seen in my life…… I gave her the vaguest possible request - we want to go to Tahiti and learn to Scuba Dive - and she bounced a ton of ideas and suggestions off of us and ended up setting up a great trip…
While I was working this morning I watched a show on ‘Trio‘ called ‘Gay Republicans‘ .. Oh my GOD… This is one of those shows that had me yelling at the TV. I can completely understand standing behind some of the stated Republican values of smaller government (though they’re missing the mark), conservative fiscal values [...]

I Just can’t tell you how much faith I’ve lost in the american electorate… Up until I had a certain amount of faith that even if there was evil and corruption in power, when given a chance, the american voter would do the right thing and vote with their brains and maintain the dignity of [...]

I was listening to NPR this morning and they had a piece on military recruiting in High School. Apparently one of the provisions for funding in the ‘No Child Left Behind’ act was that, for schools to get funding available, they had to provide the military with contact information for all juniors and seniors. There [...]
You’d think after the last debate where the President mocked Kerry for insinuating that he owned a lumber company only for it to come out that he disclosed just such a thing on his tax form
This time was just about as fun.. This time, when John Kerry pointed out that Bush had said that he [...]
This is kinda interesting - interesting point and good tunes too boot! Make sure to watch - not just listen!

Now THIS is the kind of thing I actually like hearing in the press:
Kerry Rips Bush Over Assault Weapons Law
WASHINGTON Sept. 13, 2004 — Democratic Sen. John Kerry on Monday accused President Bush of ducking his responsibility to protect the country from crime and terrorism by allowing a national assault weapons ban to expire.
This is [...]
Ok folks… c’mon… give it a rest… We KNOW already.. Bush wasn’t a war hero. He didn’t really even show up. I’ve got the message and its not the point. There is PLENTY about what the man is doing now for us to be scared shitless of. The fact that he was a flake in [...]
