Oh man, and I thought Nicholas Cage actually had a brain!

Wonder how long before he gets dragged into Scientology? It will be interesting to see if he can resist the siren's call.

[SuziQ]

Not to mention it's PINK!!! ... If you're going to lay down the gauntlet, demand an apology from the President of the United States, you really ought not to wear a sissy tie

LOL! Is that the one he was wearing when he went into his thumbsucking rant? Oh my! Well, looking at the other pictures of his wardrobe, there weren't any better ones to choose, now were there?

[BigWaveBetty]

Is that the one he was wearing when he went into his thumbsucking rant?

Yep!! LOL!!

OMG! I just heard Tammy Daschle tell the world that Little Dickie Gephardt is his partner and soulmate!!!! Dickie was standing by Tammy's side at a press conf. as he continued his whining about politicizing the HLSecurity bill and War with Iraq.

This is too much. The dems are heading for the rubber room.

Hello, MadIvan, how are things on your side of the pond?

[Endeavor]

Thaks for posting the link to Ann's latest article, lod. It is one of her best, I think.

[Endeavor]

And what makes her or her promoters think we'd want to know about her?

Shoot, honey, I want to see something on Margaret Thatcher, not the weakest link.

[Endeavor]

Oh how funny! I was just commenting yesterday on little tommy's flaming pink tie - it just goes to show how out of touch he is - if you're gonna go on national tv and slander the president of the US while holding yourself and your party up as the moral leaders of America, would YOU choose a flamin' pink tie??? I should hope NOT.

[lodwick]

You're welcome - I really enjoyed listening to Ann and Sean rip dasshole's senate predecessor yesterday - the goof was reduced do the typical dim response of name calling within fifteen minutes of the conversation. 'rats - demon rats.

Not just the rubber room. I think Tommy's been drinking too much kool-aid lately.

LOL,, love it.

Rant Alert!!!


On Dr Phil is an overweight mother and her very obese daughter who as suing the fast food industry for making them fat. They eat fast food at least 3 times a week, and super-size everything. Their lawyer says that Children and fat people are the victims because they are targeted by the fast food places.

Dr Phil said " What about turning the steering wheel the other way and not going into McDonald's?"

The attorney said that Dr Phil is uninformed and that the toys are geared towards kids, and so the parents must go to McDonald's to get them.

I am going to rip my hair out at these people's stupidity.

[Iowa Granny]

Please do not tear those lovely alburn locks from your head.

I am beginning to think there are more goofy people in the world than we can keep track of,,,,

[lodwick]

There's more goofie liberal judges that let these insane cases go forward so the trial lawyers will keep lining the judges pockets with campaign cash.

CC - is an hour of the good Doctor too much? I've heard that folks enjoyed his segments with Oprah, but that an hour show gets hard to take.

[MadIvan]

Hello, MadIvan, how are things on your side of the pond?

All things considered, not too badly. ;)

That much is certain. And like Goofy in the old Disney cartoons, they're all singing, "Oh the world owes me a livin'". ;)

Plitical Correctness run amok in Ohio:

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

Ohio State University students are back for the start of classes today, and Columbus Police Sgt. Pat Foley has heard the questions: What are you doing to protect us from this rapist? Why haven't you caught him after four months?

The Linden and University District rapists both hide their identities, attack and then leave quickly, Foley said. In such cases, police need one of two things: a good description of the rapist or him to make a mistake, such as lingering around the crime scene.

In both the Linden and University District rapes, police have neither.

Catching a rapist is difficult, Foley said, acknowledging that doesn't make people feel better. On the investigative side, it has meant calling out a crime-scene search unit every time anyone matching the rapist's description -- black male, late 20s or 30s, medium height and build -- breaks into a house. The unit doesn't automatically go out on every break-in, but a fingerprint or some other small piece of evidence could help identify the rapist, Foley said.

Even though it means extra work for his unit, he encouraged University District residents to call police about any suspicious activity.

Police learned that at least twice this past summer, women delayed reporting possible break-ins because they didn't want to appear prejudiced -- the suspects were black men, and the white women felt bad about assuming they were doing something criminal, Foley said.

"I don't care if they're white, black, Asian or Hispanic,'' he said. "Don't let political correctness stop you. Call us. That's what we're here for....

Incredible!

Here's a conundrum: Why is it ok for Chuckie Shumer to demand to know whether Miguel Estrada actually told a law student that he would not recommend him to clerk for Justice Kennedy because he (the law student) is too liberal. and to then say that the Senate is not going to confirm any conservatives because they are conservative? I mean, these people are so brash in their contempt of conservatives while doing the very same thing they accuse the nominee of doing.

I wish Ann Coulter would write an article on that overt hypocracy.

[Aggie Mama]

Ack! I got sucked into the premier of "Friends", but didn't get to see the last 5 minutes b/c DS hit DD pretty hard and we had to discipline him. Does anyone know how it ended?

[BigWaveBetty]

I'll try to get this right. Joey and Ross finally figure out that Joey didn't really propose and Ross tells Rachel he didn't really want to propose.... but, they decide that they should "start dating" again (but aren't they living together for the baby?). And I think Ross is going to have a hard time getting the ring back from Rachel (she likes it). But then, I think Ross had a look like he might want to ask her to marry him.

I didn't see the very last few seconds that they run after the commericals, so I could have missed who knows what.

I'm too old for this. ;-)
