Heh :-)

Big rally at the Capital today. Harry and the gang had props, music and a cheering crowd. Oh yeah, Hillary was there too but she seemed to stay out of the spotlight. How very unHillary, hmmm.

Check out this quote from Alan Simpson to Bill Maher after Maher displayed his usual ignorance of the truth concerning ANWAR.

"I tell you, without fuel oil, New England would drift off into the sea... we passed the Alaska Wilderness Bill in '80, and we set aside 20,000 acres in an area which is - and it said right in the bill that in the event of Congress wishing to drill this area, it would be drilled. And that passed by a huge bipartisan vote. That's in the bill. And that's the only part they're going into. It's about the size of a sparrow fart in the midst of a typhoon." – Sen. Alan Simpson

Alan did have to explain to Maher the sparrow quote was from Kurt Vonnegut. *snicker*

Mr. M just got some sort of solicitation from AARP (insurance or something). I took the postage pre-paid envelope and inserted a little note reading, "We support Pres. Bush's proposal to reform Social Security, why don't you?" and sent it back to them - at their expense.

Poor ol' Hillary - trying to be a moderate while appearing (stealthily) at the lefties' poorly-attended pep rallies:


Get that camera away from me! I'm not really here, you #*)#(%! $#% ^>+^
