Who Is Brad Owens?
"How Out of Touch Can This President Be?
The Richmond County Republican Party has cast out one of its candidates for the state House.
The party's executive committee voted to "disassociate itself" from House District 115 candidate Bradley Owens because of his 1992 association with then-presidential candidate David Duke, the former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.

Which one, Kerry or the person who photoshoped the pic? ;-)
Here's another profile in courage:
And Kerry looks like a corpse in the one you posted!
HLL will be posting a link to her 'I hate John Kerry' album soon and we'll link to it with each new thread. Lots and lots of good pics I found and will continue to add, like this one:
Once you are able to view the album please contact me or HLL if you have a pic you'd like added.
And from the 'Oh my sides hurt' file:
Page Six:
ELLEN DeGeneres and her girlfriend, Alexandra Hedison, may soon be heading to San Francisco to tie the knot, a la Rosie O'Donnell and Kelly Carpenter. Sources told msnbc.com gossipeuse Jeannette Walls the couple - who have been wearing each other's rings for a year - plan to wed this summer. A spokesman for DeGeneres denies it. But one source says DeGeneres is trying to keep her plans under the radar because of concern her private life might turn off some of her audience: "That whole mess with Anne Heche (DeGeneres' ex) just got so out of hand."

"THE Apprentice" loser Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth's attitude has cost her yet another gig. Atlanta radio station WSTR Star 94 FM was planning to let Omarosa and fellow former contestant Sam Solovey take over the "Steve & Vikki" morning show Thursday. But she gave producers such a hard time making arrangements that they booked her bitter rival, Ereka Vetrini, as a backup. "I had to change Omarosa's flight seven times, and then she couldn't make it until 8:30 a.m. the day of the show," producer Jake Ray told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Omarosa was in a limo on the way to the station when she heard that Vetrini - whom she had accused of using the N-word - was there. Once at the station, Omarosa refused to go on, despite Solovey's attempt to persuade her to take on Vetrini on-air. Omarosa hissed that she'd rather do it on "Oprah" because, "I'd prefer to go on a national stage." She also seethed, "I'm going to drop the bomb on her," before taking the limo back to the airport, where she paid for her own way home. When the mikes were off, Vetrini rolled her eyes and sighed, "I'm so over her," and crooned, "Ding dong, the witch is dead." [Expect to go nowhere fast Omarosa, you twit]

We hear:
THAT Martha Stewart - listed on the tip sheet as an attendee at the Food Bank benefit at Chelsea Piers Thursday night - was a no-show. Guests had to settle for Oliver Platt, cutie celebrity couple Kirsten Dunst and Jake Gyllenhaal, and Frances McDormand . . . THAT Gina Lee, the beautiful blonde Asian lead singer of Unisex Salon, is denying that she's dating David Schwimmer because she doesn't want her hip, downtown fans alienated by her association with the mainstream, saccharine "Friends" star . . . THAT Michael J. Fox will make a rare public appearance at Trudie Styler's Rainforest benefit April 21 at Carnegie Hall playing guitar on "Johnny B. Goode" with Elton John, Billy Joel, Sting and James Taylor.
Statement from Foundation Regarding Michael's New Medication
March 18, 2004
To all of you who have contacted us regarding reports that Michael is doing better:
Yes, he is doing better these days. Michael and his physician have worked together to adjust his medication (commonly prescribed for PD). It’s not a cure, but it has helped his movements become smoother. Please understand that the exact medication Michael takes is between him and his physician. We respect his right to keep this information private and hope you do too.
As anyone with Parkinson’s knows, it’s a very individual disease. What works for one PD patient at any given time, may not work for another. So we do urge PD patients to frequently visit a physician experienced in movement disorders to find the right therapy for them.
Parkinson’s remains a progressive disease, and there is no cure at present. We are all hopeful though, that with your support, a cure will be found. Thanks again for your good wishes.

There was news recently that adult stem cells were proving very promising but it didn't get much fan fare.
Breaking News!
Mark Shields, CNN just informed the world that he thinks hillary's funny. So true that old saying, 'takes one to know one.'
Help me out here ladies, what's all the hullabaloo over John Dean's book (besides the fact he bashes republicans)? Unless there's some earth shattering fact Dean's keeping until the book is released there's not much there. Certainly Dean's only source(s) would be Clarke types and they'll be dismissed by logical people, so I guess what I'm asking is, could Dean have access to credible information or are we about to suffer through another idiot on parade that amounts to nothing?
Hahahahahahahaha! Oh, my sides!
