"Stand down if you don't have ovaries." -- Florida Rep. Janet Long D-Tampa,
inviting the men who were voting to restrict abortion rights
to mind their
own f-ing businesss. The bill ultrasounds for women seeking abortions,
passed,
Link
You see, the women of Florida are just as stupid as the women
of Oklahoma.
They need some old, white Republican to make their reproductive
choices for them,
because they are too stupid to understand what's at stake.
"So having just seen him at the White House
Correspondents' Dinner, I had sorta forgotten how screamingly unfunny Jay
Leno really is. It was half, creaking, awful mother-in-law, lawyers-are-bad, Gee-ain't-Sarah-Palin-dumb
anti-humor schtick... A quarter of the way through, all I
could think was: "Is he being paid to take a dive?" Halfway through all I could think was:
"No, nobody could pretend to be this bad. Subtle as a steam hammer. Funny as
a sewer collapse. Our Crown Prince of American mass media comedy really is just plain
fucking dreadful." Je-sus. People really laugh at this boiled gray tripe?" -- driftglass,
Link
He's right - Leno was worse thah I thought he'd be and I expected
him to stink.
You won't hear anyone whining about Jay's "cutting edge"
humor Saturday night.
Trust me, the only guy who enjoyed Leno's "humor" was Rich Little.

Subject: anti-choice legislation
and Benny the Rat
Bart:
I would like you to read my comment in the St.
Petersburg times about the anti-choice legislation.
You should read the rest of the comments too.
Florida is like Oklahoma...with beaches!!!
Here it is:
Thanks, self-righteous xtians, for continuing
to try to impose YOUR belief system on those of us who want
nothing to do with it!!! So will_from_idiot_bigot_park
and "Big Brother" John 1984, why are you beholden
to the same views as pedophile pope Benny the
Rat? And why do people like you rail AGAINST "big government"
while constantly beating the drum for more intrusion
into everyone else's personal decicions?
Oh, right, you are teabagging gop zealots, no
less zealots than any Islamic terrorist.

Quotes
"Leno went and took that show back and I think
in a similar situation, if roles had been reversed, I know
-- I know me, I wouldn't have done that." -- Conan, bitching on 60 Minutes
last night,

But isn't that what you did?
The Tonight Show was obviously Leno's and you made a deal to take
it from him.
Geez, who do you root for when super-rich, non-funny men screw
each other?
"Let me be clear -- what I have said in the
past is, there is a difference between legal and illegal immigration. There's a difference between legal
and illegal. This is Allegra D -- or so, this is actually crack cocaine,
but I get it from a doctor, so it's OK --
Allegra. Drugs? Pot! Drugs! 'I have a problem with drugs!' No no no --
I have a problem with illegal drugs. Not prescription
drugs. I don't want to ban all drugs! Prescription drugs are good for you when used by prescription and
follow the advice of the doctor. Bad otherwise. Got it?" -- Glenn beck, trying to make
some kind of point,
Link
Whatever he said, I'm sure the families of Heath Ledger, Anna
Nicole Smith and Corey Haim would agree.
What could possibly be dangerous about prescription drugs?
Mel Brooks: I was very lucky to have Richard
Pryor as one of the writers on "Blazing Saddles."
I said, "Richard, we're going to use the N-word all over the place."

hearts are in the right place. That's what they call them, these rednecks.
If we called them anything else, we wouldn't be saying the truth."

"Miller has had a distinguished career as a
stand up comedian and a host of Emmy winning TV shows." -- Dennis Miller's own writing
from his Facebook page, Link
Notice the past tense.
Before he turned into Bush's Cabanaboy, he would've said,
"Miller has a distinguished career as a stand
up comedian and a host of Emmy winning TV shows."
...but then he turned into a GOP apologist, mocking every joke
he ever told.
This week President Obama is going to pick the
next Supreme Court justice. People are talking about
what kind of a justice Obama should pick. I want
a justice that won't usurp the will of the voters and
appoint a president like the Supreme Court did
in Bush vs. Gore giving the presidency to the loser.
I want a justice that understands that We the
People does not mean We the Corporations and that
The People are superior to the corporate world.
I want a justice than understands that it is the right
of the people to spy on the government and not
the right of government to spy on The People.
I want a justice that gives a woman more rights
than they give her gun.
The current Supreme Court is not an institution
of justice but little more that a cesspool of right wing corruption.
In 2008 We the People rose up against the tyranny
of the Bush/Cheney administration to take America back,
leading the world back to recovery. But the fight
isn't over and we aren't going to let a bunch of Tea Baggers
stand in our way.
We say to you that our spirit is stronger and
cannot be broken
- you can not outlast us, and we will defeat
you. Reality is on our side.

Wouldn't it be great if we could hear all the details about "an incident"

I don´t see the point of those readers who
condone anti-immigrant initiatives here,
by pointing out how harsh immigration laws are
in Mexico.
In the past (say, 150 years ago), Mexico had much
softer immigration laws.
Then gave land grants to anyone who could put
$2 together and sign a paper.
Conditions were few: no slaves, and you had to
promise to learn Spanish after a certain period of time.
Then a bunch of slave barons, rogues, mobsters,
and religious fundamentalists, with the
covert support of the USA, sneaked into their
country and ended up grabbing half of it.
As a result, yes, Mexican immigration laws are
harsh.
Waaaaay more so in paper than in real life, as
anyone who actually was in the country can vouch for.
For most offenses, including entering the country
illegally, they let you go with a fine and a slap in the wrist.
How does or compare with, or justifies,
barring heavily-accented teachers from Arizona classrooms,
or asking anyone who looks browny fot their papers?
Give me a break…

I hadn't planned to attend or play in this years $1,000 WSOP Tournament,
(May 29th-June 3?) mostly because
I can't afford it, but before I dismiss the idea altogether, I though
maybe I'd put the subject on the table
in case somebody out there was feeling extra generous and wanted to
read the 2010
WSOP Trip Report.
In poker, we call this a "two-outer" meaning I figure there's a 5% chance
of this working, but ...those things sometimes happen.
I would welcome any donors to show up at The Rio

"Before his health-care bill passed, Mr. Obama
sent a tough letter to health-insurance CEOs and then castigated them 22 times in
a follow-up prime-time televised speech. This is behavior worthy of a Third World dictator--not
the head of a vibrant democracy. This smacked of Chicago-style shake-down politics." -- Karl Rove, not spinning or anything,
Link
"Yeah, dictators are known to rule their terrified
subjects with strongly-worded letters. What
is a defenseless CEO to do?" -- ojnabieoot, Link

What Sarah is too stupid to understand is this:
When you live by the schoolyard taunt, you die by one.
When she said that "hopey changey" shit, she threw all civility away.
She threw away her ability to say, "All I
did was ask a question or try to make a point."
No, Sarah, you chose to be a total bitch and that'll come back to haunt
you.
Granted, you've made $12M since you walked out of the people of Alaska.
Like all Rethugs, you made a bad decision. You could've made,
say, $10M and had
some self-respect, but you chose the short-term $2M over a lifetime
of credibility.
But I wish you the best of luck and I hope you get the GOP nomination
in 2012.
The good news for us?
The intelligent Republicans will be voting Democrat that year.
"You even called drilling -- safe, environmentally-friendly
