Good Morning Loddy!

THE JOKE WAS ON WACKO JACKO AT MTV AWARDS

Plastic surgery king Michael Jackson came completely unglued at the MTV Music Video Awards — suffering a severe panic attack before his horrified handlers forced him to go onstage."Michael started waving his hands in the air above his head and started repeating over and over again, 'There's too many people! There's too many people!'

BAWAHAHA! What a werido!

[Teacup]

Did you hear bout this?

JULIA'S SECRET -- IS SHE BATTLING DEADLY BLOOD DISEASE?

[Endeavor]

TO: Mr. Reeve re: Stem Cell Research: If your Hollywood cronies weren't already ponying up more cash for HIV than for breast cancer research, they could be privately funding your personal attempts at walking again.

Make no mistake about it, stem cell research is ongoing via private support. So stop bitching, Mr. Reeve.

[mountaineer]

If we'd had full government support, full government funding for aggressive research using embryonic stem cells from the moment they were first isolated, at the University of Wisconsin in the winter of 1998

Someone remind SuperDupe who was president in 1998 (and 1999 and 2000). What did he do? And why is it up to the U.S. to do - and fund - all the research?

[mountaineer]

That's the fact that is so conveniently overlooked. Bush didn't ban embryonic stem cell research. He just said the taxpayers would not fund it. Some people - apparently including Chris Reeve - can't make that distinction, while others can't grasp that all stem cells do not come from human embryos. That group seems to think Bush was not being pro-life when he didn't defund and/or ban all types of stem cell research. *sigh*

[Endeavor]

"And why is it up to the U.S. to do - and fund - all the research?"

Because, our tax money is not OURS. It is there for the taking by the wealthy Hollywood whiners who court Congress as if it was their personal bordello and require in return, OUR money directed toward Hollywood's personal disease de jour.

[Teacup]

The actor said President Bush had paid too much heed to the Catholic church.(snip)

The actor, who has round-the-clock medical care which costs him $417,000 a year, once said he wanted to be on his feet by the time he was 50 -- a birthday just eight days away.

God bless him, that he is able to afford around the clock care. I agree, about aids monies, but I guess he won't go there. I guess he forgot Clinton was president for 8 years and he didn't do anything about stem cell reasearch.

[lodwick]

The President is giving a kick-ass speech in Nashville - congressional rats, saddam, and the terrorist are getting hammered - west Texas style. I love it. ;-)

[mountaineer]

Who are these people?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Families of Sept. 11 victims criticized President Bush on Monday for eroding civil rights in the U.S. war on terror, and said they believed airport security was no better than a year ago.

Stephen Push, head of the Sept. 11 Homeland Security Alliance, gave the Bush administration a "C-" grade on a report card in urging the government to temper military gusto with fair treatment of those placed under arrest. Push said he did not believe suspended judicial rights -- such as denying terrorist suspects access to a lawyer or expeditious trial -- were needed or desirable.

"I'm not sure it is really necessary in order to protect us," he told reporters.

"The fact that over a thousand people were swept up and there have been no reports of them being terrorists, it raises questions on whether these people were really being treated well."

What makes this guy, whoever he is, an expert on anything? full article.

[lodwick]

You gave me all of that pud I need - today the President said that over 2000 have been detained, and more than that number "were not as fortunate." I hope everyone enjoys listening to plainspoken truth as much as I.

[BigWaveBetty]

Looks like Iraq needs to do at least seven things

That's the way I see it, why the talking heads are try to make it seem like Saddam's in the clear is a testament to their idiocy.

CHELSEA Clinton, who is living with boyfriend Ian Klaus at London Terrace, returning from her gym "in a gray T-shirt and her mother's hips," meowed one Chelsea muscle boy . . .

MEOW indeed! Living with boyfriend?! tsk, tsk. And Chelsea has muscle boys?

[BigWaveBetty]

That's scary how much BS looks like Billary, sans the hips.

[BigWaveBetty]

"There are religious groups -- the Jehovah's Witness, I believe -- who think it's a sin to have a blood transfusion. Well, what if the president for some reason decided to listen to them, instead of to the Catholics, which is the group he really listens to in making his decisions about embryonic stem cell research?" Reeve was quoted as saying.

This statement is outrageous, in addition to being almost incoherent. Well Mr. Reeves, what if our president decided it's quite alright to experiment on people trapped in a wheelchair? Would that be ok as long as it served your purposes?

Is it that these people don't understand the slippery slope of the government sanctioning of experimenting on PEOPLE?! Or do they just not care?

[mountaineer]

Chelsea is such an airhead. It seems her NYC apt. is in the neighborhood known as Chelsea, so "Chelsea muscle boy" refers to where he's from, not "Wilbur" Hubbell Jr. herself. Perhaps she thinks she's required to live in places with the same name as she.

It's not enough for her to co-opt everything else named Chelsea, from Joni Mitchell songs to English soccer teams (she has referred to that team as "her favorite" to the Brit press), but now she has her own place in Chelsea. It's only a matter of time before she buys an apt. in Chelsea, London, too. Isn't it nice to be young and unemployed, and able to live high on the hog? She won't know how to function if the money flow ever dries up.

[BigWaveBetty]

I smell a big fat Iraqi RAT!!!!

Many places for them smelly rats to hide. :-)

[lodwick]

The only differences are 20 years, 60 lbs, and Prell.

Who can blame the sinkmeister?

[Pippin]

LOL!!

[Teacup]

I think Reeves thinks President Bush is a Catholic. Has he forgotten that the Kennedy's are the Catholics, LOL. I'm afraid, Super Duh, Superman is thinking of "Me, myself and I." Slippery slope indeed, BWB, I agree with you.
