No doubt the Squid will issue a statement apologizing for these words, now that it has been established the the CBS "documentation" of the charges have been shown to be forgeries. When donkeys fly, that is.
Yikes, more Monica news:
MONICA Lewinsky went crazy at the Crema Lita shop on the Upper West Side yesterday - smearing ice cream on a woman who accused her of cutting the line to grab a chocolate cone, her target said. The 26-year-old "victim," who withheld her name, said Lewinsky stormed to the front of the line and then got mad when she tried to snap a picture her. "She asked if I could erase the photo, and I said no," the customer said. "I told her that's what you get for cutting the line." Lewinsky, 31, then shouted obscenities at her, the woman claimed, before smearing her shirt with ice cream. Lewinsky told The Post she didn't cut the line, but admitted she "iced" a woman. (PageSix)
And, in another tragic instance of the fat cells overwhelming the brain cells:
ALEC Baldwin is taking on the Teminator. On tonight's "Topic A with Tina Brown," Baldwin notes: "Arnold Schwarzenegger had zero qualifications whatsoever to be the governor in the state of California, none. I don't care how many physical fitness programs you've run ... The Republicans are very keen in getting people to come in and be the host of the show. Reagan was like that. They get a guy who can read lines, and be the front man for the band so to speak, and other people take over and get the job done." (PageSix)
The Democrats purposely chose a candidate with a 22-year history in elective office entirely barren of any distinction. The Democrats chose a candidate known for political calculation, a talent for nuance and an unswerving dedication to swerving to avoid political risk. In other words, they chose a cipher.
Not a bad strategy at a time when the news for the Bush administration - the Iraq insurgency, Abu Ghraib, the 9/11 hearings - was awful. Pick a cipher and make this a referendum on the President. A plausible idea, but it does leave everything up to the other side.
Some people will weigh the results of President Bush's three years and approve. Others will not. But at least his record bears scrutiny and debate. Read the rest of Charles Krauthammer column.
I see that Sidney Blumenthal is continuing to live up to his nickname; 'Sid Vicious'!
At the end of Alec's talk with Tina he tells her "they've got to go", as he ran his finger across his throat. He was referring to Bush and Cheney. Tina giggled.
