Shut Up and Ban! NBC's Newfound Protection of the Public
Drudge Posted Friday October 27, 2006 at 12:23 PM

Matt Drudge reports that NBC, in a sudden attack of conscience, has refused to run ads for "Shut Up And Sing," the rockumentary-turned-sociopolitical-exegesis that follows the Dixie Chicks before, during and after singer Natalie Maines' infamous anti-Bush statements at a London concert in 2003. According to reports, the network stated that it "cannot accept these spots as they are disparaging to President Bush." --you have to finish reading this article NOW--

O'Reilly's Big Lie on Letterman
by: Cenk Uygur

Bill O'Reilly at one point in his face off with David Letterman attempted to stump Letterman and prove Iraq had ties to terrorism by sighting Ansar al-Islam. According to O'Reilly, Ansar al-Islam was a terrorist group tied to al-Qaeda who was in Iraq before the war working with Saddam Hussein. Of course, it's a lie. --you have to finish reading this article NOW--

Ok, first thing's first...yes, O'Reilly is a dunce who makes stuff up.

But...

Iraq did, indeed, fund terrorism. In fact, the Iraqi government would send checks directly to the family of Palestinian suicide bombers. Here's Hitchens on Saddam's terrorism connections:

Of course, but if we wanted to invade every dictatorial country that has or wants to have WMD and supports terrorists in any way, it's a damn long list. Don't think we'll manage that with a volunteer army. And while I was not a fan of Bush I, he's taking an unfair beating for not marching into Baghdad. He understood that Iraq under Saddam kept Iran in balance. Matter of fact, that why we used to give Saddam money and weapons. Not saying it's right, but at least there was a logical strategy behind it.

Here's the thing, it's not just the Republicans (excuse me for posting anon. last time, I spazzed and accidentally forgot to log in). In fact it was Carter who started the funding of terrorism in the Middle East when his adminnistration sent secret funds to the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan. And thankfully that didn't come back to bite us in the ass.

Uhhh....

We always dance with fire no matter who the President or political party in power is (Kennedy approving the Bay of Pigs, who were nothing but Cuban terrorists trained by the US).

Ack, I mis-spoke...I meant to say that Carter started the funding of Islamic fundamentalists, not in the Middle East since...well Afghanistan isn't in the Middle East.

Oy.

I've read that, adam. years ago actually.

I know it's true that the democrats are also guilty of many of the world's ills just like the republicans. but, as a rule, the democrats are the lesser of the two evils.

sadly, that's also how I vote. I wish it were different. I do hope that it does change. but, until then, I'd like to try to keep as many of my civil rights intact as possible and affiliate with a group that has some semblance of social responsibility.

Oh I definitely agree. Is just sad, as you said, that it's a matter of choosing between bad and worse.

Sigh.

SPEAKING OF ABORTIONS

Menses just commenced. It's 1:14 AM. I was asleep. That felt good. At 12:24, I popped up. I think I'm awake, maybe awakeish is more accurate. I'm always surprised when those handy-soapy-foamy-bottles run out of soap. For some lame ass reason, it never occurs to me that they ever will. They feel so lifetime supply , even though the bottles aren't more than 8 inches tall. Similarly, when I flip on a light switch and the light flickers to its death, I think "Now what?" Duh, schmuckette, you change the fucking light bulb . Intellectually, I know this, yet for some odd reason, it never comes to mind. In fact, a few years ago, my mother walked into my house and said, "Why aren't the lights working?" I said "I don't know, I flick the switch and they don't work." After a fit of uproarious laughter, she said, "Would it kill you to change the light bulb?” Hmmm. "No", I shamefully responded. I wonder why... it is that I hav...

Best Spam Evaaaaaaaaaaah -UPDATE-

Look what I found in my box today?! Aside from the fact that I'm a VADGE and there is a glaring typo " fie" instead of " fine" , they've made this dame a raging cunt- hate that (and her high, tight rack. Bitch ). Women don't behave this way. Women aren't cunty. Women don't emasculate men. That is not how we roll, yo. UPDATE : From the fabulous and flawless MonkeyMucker : Actually hon that's not a typo. the word "fie" is a somewhat rare wordthat is used to denote scorn or used in place of a swear or curse word.It was more popular in the old days, like say during the 16th thru 19th centuries . Who knew?! I had no idea. Simianboy, you're a wealth of knowledge. Grazie. Penis enlargement patches also do not work. If you want to keep your junk intact, don't be stickin' things in it, or on it that can damage the meat bat. Don't let anyone make you feel badly about your manhood, either. It's your dick, live it. Love it....

Get Listen Up

Image
Have you seen the infomercial for Get Listen Up ? I thought the idea of a product that turns "Ordinary hearing into Extroidinary hearing" was too camp for words. In the mersh, a hospitable narrator takes you through all kinds of folks using it in church, hunting, watching television, listening to your spawn on the playground, all doable, right? Right. I was sold, too. Until.... my friendly narrator lady said "Listen to what your neighbors are saying about you." Okay, creeparella, how very big brother. Watch the mersh . Doreen sent me a kick ass, smart ass article this week in the NY Times called, " Skin Deep - Hey, Mom, the Rabbi Approved my Tattoo ". Speaking of Diva Doreen, I finished her flawless, brilliant book Queen of the Road (it's tits to the tenth, children) and she's graciously allowed me to interview her. I'll be posting that this week and you will love every word. Frannylish sent me, in her words an "oy gevalt" article ...
