Okay, forget Rove resigning, Bush and Cheney also need to resign. We’d be better off with the guy who mops the white house floors running the country than the Old-Boys-Club incarnate. If you voted for W, are you crying uncle yet? How can you possibly be proud of this man who called Libby "a great patriot," when giving a statement about Libby's resignation. Great Patriots don’t have a get-out-of-my-sandbox mentality, which Libby does have, as does W, Cheney, and shall I keep going?
And screw this whole great patriot thing. There are two definitions of “patriot.” The real one, citizens who care enough about their country to question the government and are not willing to let their decisions and policy wonking go without thorough scrutiny, then there’s W’s version: anyone neocon with stock in Haliburton.”

Scooter Scoots
I just had my heart in my throat thanks to a big misread of the headlines on my part. I read, “Cheney Resigns After Indictment.” For a nano-second, my body and brain were nearly torn apart from the impulses each had. My body was racing to the phone, while my brain was going, “wow, there actually may be a god.” Then my eyes retraced their steps and I saw that I had left out the word, “advisor,” after Cheney. It’s a good day, not a great day, as a result.
On second thought, if Cheney resigned, W would put his little dyke pal in the VP seat, and then all those moderate Republicans would get insane ideas about how wouldn’t it be neat if the first woman president were also black. Yes it would, if she were pro choice.
If this happens, then we’ll have to hear Republicans blather on about how they freed the slaves, and how they really are the more progressive party – as if doing things like banning stem cell research, blocking decent gun control laws, and overturning Roe v. Wade are progressive. You think Republicans are insufferable now, just wait. While I’m happy to see Frist, DeLay, Cheney, Rove and lil’ Scooter fall, I can’t shake this feeling that it won’t mar the Republican party. I think we’ll have an Elephant in the White House come 2008, and I’m not just talking about the GOP mascot.
See how I can turn good news into misery? It’s true, I must be a Democrat.

Burning Questions about Plamegate
Confused about Plamegate? It gets murky, and there are a ton of questions. For example, how could the W administration allow a top aide to work in their ranks named Scooter? And how Republican is that, by the way? Scooter, let’s cut taxes for the rich, again. Daddy needs a new boat. By the way, Scooter, pass me that nine iron.
Second, how did Karl Rove become such a marketing guru looking like that? Marketing people are the beautiful people of the work force. We have nice hair and are thin and wear well-made clothes. We don’t look dishelved. And the best of us don't get caught in the many lies we spin.
Finally, how is it that President Cheney is taking the heat for something W should be responsible for? Oh, that’s right, he’s running things, not the puppet king.
The last question: will W end up getting impeached? I doubt it. If this were a sex scandal with a fat chick, yes, but this is a real issue, so therefore, no.

What's Sunny, Noble and Glimmers?
I want to like Chris Matthews, I really do. He’s a bit grouchy with his guests and I like that, and he’s not even grouchy in that obnoxious way Bill O’Reilly is. The Right claims he’s a liberal, and if so, he’s the worst liberal ever. Here’s the latest example: yesterday, he claimed that W “glimmers” with a “sunny nobility.” My cat, Sammy Davis Jr, glimmers with a sunny nobility after he’s had a meal and has licked himself in anticipation of his 22nd nap of the day. W doesn’t glisten, and while I’ll give him “Sunny” in the way that mentally challenged people are often cheery, the callus on my big toe is more noble than that little near-miss of a Cyclops from Texas.
Mathew’s gushing came during a discussion on Hardball with Washington Times editorial page editor Tony Blankley of the effects on the Bush administration of the investigation into the leak of the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame. Here’s the transcript:
BLANKLEY: Well, there are bad and there are worse. First of all, I think that perjury proven beyond a reasonable doubt is a serious felony. I thought that seven years ago about Clinton.[note from Lablogda: Let it go!]And I will think it this week, if that charge comes down and if the evidence supports it against Republican officials. But I think that the real question the White House and the president, personally, has to decide, presumably in the next several days, is how they're going to respond to whatever does come out, presuming it's not going to be a total clearance. And in that regard, I think the president would be ill-advised to try to minimize anything. I think he needs to make a clean break and set his administration looking forward and not get defensive. Whatever is going to happen is going to happen. The evidence is either going to be there or not. And if he continues to try to defend what is something which will be, you know, indefensible, if in fact there are indictments -- is going to be a mistake, and it will drag him down. Whathe needs to do is put together some new staff, admit whatever mistakes have to be admitted, and start moving forward. He's got three years left in his administration, and it's important for him and for the country that he be functional.
MATTHEWS: You know, Tony, there is in the past, it's not always there, but sometimes it glimmers with this man, our president, that kind of sunny nobility. How does he bring it back, because it hasn't been apparent for a while now?

Is Dick Getting Limp?
Dick, Dick, Dick, you big Dick you. Are you getting a bit flaccid? What’s this I hear about your possible resignation? Don’t dick around with my emotions, Dick.
Through my sources, I've learned this juicy tidbit: if Dick resigns, it’s not over Plamegate, it’s because he was involved in some fraudulent documents about WMD in Iraq. Like we didn’t guess that already, but someone has their dick caught in the cookie jar, evidently.
On to a more personal note, which for me is more interesting, this same friend told me that our mutual friend, “Kev,” who does not read this blog because it’s too insulting to W, is one of those hard core Republicans who is justifying all the administration’s meltdown to those trouble-making Democrats. So Kev, there is only one thing to do with you: you’ve been clipped from my social circle. That’s right: you’re banned from the light that is LaBlogda. You are a spineless sheep and next time you have troubles with your domineering spouse or your ungrateful children, don’t come telling me about it. Shame on you for still supporting W and his cronies.
Now it’s time for me to stop dicking around and get back to Dick. Read this about how the evil Dr. Dick has hijacked foreign policy, and how Condi Rice is one wimpy sidekick to W.

Republicans: Say Uncle
So if you voted for W, what’s it like to know that you voted for one of the most corrupt, if not the most corrupt, administration in the history of our country? You voted this President into office for a variety of reasons, depending on who you are: a party-line Republican who wanted to protect your money and get a fat tax break, an Evangelical Christian who believed this man was chosen by God himself, or just your average moron who doesn’t know better. Okay, that’s redundant with the first two, but, since I can’t get any Republicans to apologize for voting for W and thereby ruining the country, can I at least get an answer? How embarrassed are you at this point that you voted for this man, who among the many disasters, gave Rove power? Actually, Rove gave him the power: it’s called good marketing. W is the Marketing President, but as every ethical marketing person knows, you can sell a product for awhile, but if you really don’t have a good product to begin, or if you aren’t applying a high standard of ethics in the way you market, sooner or later, your product will be taken off the shelf.
Sorry, I know La Blogda is supposed to be funny, but I’m just too angry that the inevitable is unfolding, that the people in my camp weren't the ones who turned out to be wrong. I wish we had been. I wish Bush would have been the great leader and president that GOP followers said he was. Those of us who’ve hated Bush since the Republicans stole the election in 2000 knew that sooner or later this man, and his cronies, would drive this country into the ground. We all knew that the truth would come out about them. And now that it is all happening, there’s no silver lining, there’s nothing to be happy about. But I’ve said it before and I’ll continue saying: I don’t blame what’s happening in this country on W, I blame it on the people who voted for him. I blame it on the folks who fell for the blatant marketing.

The World has Gone Mad! Mad I Tell You!
Democrats are gloating that W’s approval rating is down to 39%. I say, “WHAT???” Who are those 39% and are they in the midst of a stroke?
What does it take for his base to erode? Are they just sheep? Do they just tow the party line? I don’t understand these hanger-ons anymore than I understand why there are people out there who want Roe v. Wade overturned, or why no one is discussing W’s funky eyes. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIS EYES? Is he cockeyed or are they just so close together he’s a step away from a monacle? Is this what is meant by shifty-eyed, and if so, why did a tiny fraction over half of the country elect him?
The world has gone mad and I’m feeling like I’m the last person with a bottle of Prozac in my medicine cabinet.

Must Conservatives be so Blatant?
Of all the reasons the conservatives have for not liking Harriet Mier, their big bone of contention is that they aren’t sure if she is anti-choice. Will the far right not be satisfied until it is mandatory that every woman in this country squirt out a kid? Listen up, Jesus freaks: if I get pregnant and have a kid, I’m whipping the little rat. Hard! And I’m doing it just because you’ve pissed me off! Again! Would you right-wingers please just get laid, get drunk and get off our backs?
As you can imagine, I’m a huge advocate of abortion, not as a regular means of birth control, but for those times when accidents happen, like the screaming little hell hound I had to sit next to on the flight back from NYC last week. Believe me when I said that the child, nor its lackadaisical mother, had any redeeming qualities. Had the plane gone down, surely my last thoughts would have been, “at least the world will be rid of these two.” Sound harsh? Fine, you sit by them next time.
Why can’t we have a Supreme Court Justice who doesn’t have a staunch belief either way? I know tons of apathetic people who could care less if a woman has reproductive rights or not. Just plop a case down in front of them and ask them to make a decision based on previous law and certain criteria. They can do it; they can come to a fair and impartial decision. And by the way, Harriet Miers is soooo against abortion, don’t worry, you lil’ right wing bible thumpers. She’ll be taking away civil rights and personal liberties in no time.

Uncle Sam Wants You, Again.
When I returned from New York this week, my office was buzzing with the news about one of our co-workers, Wes. Wes is a nice guy. He’s about 56, and reminds me a bit of Santa Clause, minus the beard. He’s chubby and cheery with a balding head of gray hair. Uncle Sam must like Wes, too, because he’s recalled him into the army. Wes has to report to Iraq at some point in the next three weeks to two months. Why would Uncle Same want a chubby, cheery guy who retired from the military 14 years ago? Wes has a critical MOS: Counter Intelligence. Now all the guys in my office who served in the military are all concerned because if the army can nab Wes, who can barely walk down the hall without having to stop to catch his breath, imagine what they will do with the 20 and 30 somethings who just got out of the military a few years ago.
I’d like to compare W’s record against Carter’s, the president most Republicans like to say is the worst president in history. Say what you will, but Carter never started a senseless war. The entire security team in my office has legitimate concerns that they may be required to go fight a war that does not need to be fought. Imagine losing your life because some cockeyed bastard from Texas wanted to revenge Daddy’s big loss?
So if you voted for Bush, I just have to ask again, are you satisfied? You've helped ruin the country! Didn’t the first four years give you enough warning? How much pain do you like inflicted on you and those around you?
Fair warning: My husband is also on the critical MOS list. I will not stand by silently and let my 55 year old husband who is hard of hearing and can barely see get sent to Iraq because some fool from Texas has run the country into the ground. If he does, this blog is going to get a lot nastier about Bush and the jackasses that voted for him, as well as the jackasses who didn’t vote at all because they felt both candidates were bad. Just how bad to do you think Kerry could have been? Surely not this bad.

Bad Week to Be a Republican
Before I go to NYC, one last thought: it’s been a good week. Rove, Frist, DeLay and God’s lil’ buddy W himself are all in hot water. Ann Coulter and Andrew Sullivan have even had enough of them. If God’s not a Democrat, then it’s good to know he’s also not a Republican.
I have been remiss in my blog the past few weeks (well, okay, since I started it) because I really have not covered the mess that the leaders of the Republican party have gotten themselves into.
Things are looking bad for W and his cronies. In fact, cronies are the key word here. He picked Church Lady to sit on the Supreme Court just because she thinks he’s the most brilliant man she ever met. Considering her previous job as head of the state lottery, this is not saying much.
I’ve said it before, but does W ever review resumes when there’s a job opening? If another Supreme Court Justice dies or steps down, I’m betting Laura gets nominated. After all, she was a librarian, so she must read, a concept as foreign to W as, well, picking a qualified candidate.
While we’re on the subject of people behaving badly, isn’t the Government giving NOLA about a gazillion dollars so they can rebuild? What’s with them laying off 3,000 people? Isn’t that the sort of thing the money is for? I mean it’s great that the French Quarter is open and we tourists can get drunk off our foot-long Hurrican Katrina, but how are you going to rebuild a city when the lady who you pay your parking tickets to has been fired?
One last thought: Is it possible that W’s crones put out this new terrorists threat to take the heat off of them? That’s what the Conventional Wisdom is saying. If this is true, then Rove has lost his touch. The brilliant marketing guy has run out of marketing ideas.
Geez, this means the country is without a head marketer. Do you think President Cheney would hire me?

Don't Mess With New York City
I'm off to NYC for a few day, where terrorists threats are making the headlines. I'm more of a taxi girl myself, but I have to admit that when I heard yesterday about the threats to the subway system, my first thoughts were, of course, about me. I like to envision myself in various scenarios, say, taking a private jet to NYC and drinking champagne, as opposed to the what will really happen, which is I’ll have a middle seat in coach taking Jet Blue. Instead of drinking champagne I’ll be trying to open a mini bag of pretzels with my teeth. Envisioning yourself smack in the middle of a terrorist attack is obviously no one's idea of "happy thoughts."
I’ll tell you what is a happy thought. Michael Bloomberg and all involved did a great job alerting New York and beefing up security. I don’t know if any New Yorkers agree with me, but I wish Vegas, and the Federal government, had half the brains those in charge of NYC have.
Anyway, I won’t be blogging for a few days, but I’ll be back mid-week, and hopefully, the only attack I will have to report on is an attack of heartburn I’ll get after eating at the Italian joint down the block.

The Things Those Two Must Talk About!
The news today is that Bush chats with God. God told W to go kick some ass in Afghanistan. So he did. Then he told him to go open a can of whup ass on those Iraqis. So he did. Now God wants him to get the Palestinians their state and the Israelis their security, and God used poor grammar just like a Texan because God drinks beer and is no snob. Anyway, W is going to get them some peace in the Middle East. What didn’t make the news today is that I, too, speak to God. He told me to go and buy a bunch of Prada. So I did. And now I’m in debt up to my eyeballs. But, damn! I look good.
I think it’s great that God is a Texan. I think it’s great that God invented W. Oh wait, Karl Rove invented W. Oh well, thank God for Prada.

O'Reilly Takes on Media Matters
I admit that I often visit the Media Matters website. I rather like what they have to say and I'm sure I've linked to them a time or two. But today Bill O'Reilly attacked them fairly hard, and said that they were the worst of all the blogs out there. At one point, he called them slimeballs or something similar. Of course, he didn't mention La Blogda, because there's only about 20 of you who know it exists, and I've gotten drunk with most of you, which has nothing to do with blogging -- actually, it sort of does since I like to drink and blog.
Back to my point (no wonder O'Reilly didn't mention La Blogda) if you have visited Media Matters, let me know what you think. Do you agree with O'Reilly or me? Frankly, I'm shocked he didn't mention blogsforbush.com, but then again, Fox News is fair and balanced news, for the right wing. He kept referring to the Media Matters readers as sheep. Those guys over at BFB are all wool.

DeLay's delay tactics
Ahh, Election Year 2000. W promised a nice bi-partisan administration, where dems and reps worked like a team. Fast forward. Let's see what his minions are up to:
"The judicial incompetence and political hatred that Ronnie Earle showed today demonstrates that Texans did not elect their best and brightest to the position of Travis County DA," DeLay spokesman Stuart Roy said. "Ronnie Earle may truly be the Elmer Fudd of politics." Sounds like team work to me.
"Ronnie Earle has stooped to a new low with his brand of prosecutorial abuse," DeLay said in a statement. "He is trying to pull the legal equivalent of a 'do-over' since he knows very well that the charges he brought against me last week are totally manufactured and illegitimate. This is an abomination of justice." A simple, "I'm guilty" would also work here, Mr. DeLay.
Hey Republicans, keep up the stellar work. You are holding dear the highest standard of ethics you embrace: lying, cheating, winning at all costs, circling the wagons, denying, defending the crones, keeping the sandbox to yourselves. God Bless America. The Republicans are still in charge.My guess is they will be for a long time. Anyone who thinks this is the beginning of the end for them obviously believed Kerry would win the 2004 election. As if They would let that happen.

Warning: Rant Vaguely Related to DeLay
Oh. My. God. Ohmygodohmygodohmygod. I can’t decide if I hate the Republicans who voted for W more than I hate W and his cronies. So much too hate; so little time. When I started this blog, a blog targeting people who behave badly, I had no idea that our current Government would behave so damn badly. It’s like they’ve stepped up their bad assness lately. Slap some Birkenstocks on me, force feed me some tofu and granola and call me a hippy, but, good god almighty, if being anti-establishment means hating our current government, then send my lilly white ass to Woodstock and turn me loose on some free love.
Okay, on to hate. You must read this blog: www.blogsforbush. I think they are serious. If they are trying to be funny, they are failing (like me most of the time), but in a more flagrant way. Their post about liberals being gone in 20 or 30 years reminds me of my own wish list, that by the time I retire, I will be dripping in bling and Prada (sort of ruins that hippy thing earlier). Do they not realize that as long as there are gays (forget those Log Cabin Republicans, that’s for gays who don’t have the style gene), blacks (forget Black Republicans, that’s for closet lesbian blacks like some high-ranking cabinet member who has the initials CR) or dumbass women who have no excuse but ignorance (If Ann Coulter were so smart, she’d fix that wardrobe), there will be a party opposing the Republicans, Democrat or otherwisw?
Of course, given the nature of my blog, I’m all about hate -- so look at me being a hypocrite. However, I’m small potatoes so now move on to the people in power who unfortunately count.
Why I am so outraged today after two weeks of being comatose? Well, the jet-lag thing from Hong Kong is dissipating, but mainly, GOD I HATE TOM DeLAY. Listen to this smug-ass former pest control guy discussing his “issue” which he blames on nasty evil Democrats. Like Republicans never went after the opposition before (Calling Bill Clinton; blow jobs from fat chicks on line 1).
"I think it will be over and be over very, very soon. And I think I will go back to be majority leader," DeLay told "Fox News Sunday." "And at the same time, I'm still a member of Congress. I'm going to be working on the agenda and doing everything I can to make good things happen.”
Uh-huh, good things. Like ignoring the plight of black and/or poor New Orleans when they needed the Federal Government most, or helping W lie about WMD, or kickbacks to President Cheney’s cronies in Iraq and the Gulf of Mexico, and, oh hell, I’m too old to go on.
We have never had a more crooked government than our current one. They are not fascist. They are not Nazis. They are capitalist behaving badly and in the worst way. Capitalism can be a wonderful thing, i.e, bling and Prada, but in the hands of a bunch of unattractive men with comb-overs, and a puppet leader with eyes so close together he needs a monocle, it’s nothing but America-Gone-Wild. Cue MTV, give us a rap singer, find Tara Reid. Our government has made ho-bags out of us.

Left-Winged Press Not Too Liberal
I hate to criticize the media after their coverage of Katrina, because I think they did a fine job, allowing the outrage of reporters-in-the-thick to not be edited out or spinned into something more palatable for our disastrous president. However, what is wrong with those SOBs? They should be all over Tom DeLay’s scandal, and now that Judith Miller is out of jail and singing, Cheney is now in the hot seat, or at least his Chief-of-Staff is over Plamegate. The media’s lackadaisical take on all this news makes me wonder, does W jerk off the right wing media everyday? No, he wouldn’t do that. Rove would.
Frankly, I had to get my news of Scooter Libby’s implication from “The Hindu,” as I was haplessly Googling across the Internet. Yeah. I didn’t get it from CNN or the ever-so-shameful Fox News.
But the latest shameful revelations leads me to ask one question that everyone who didn’t vote for W needs to ask, and it’s directed at you few Republicans who read this blog. Now that you’ve ruined this country by putting this administration back in office a second time, how do you look at yourself in the mirror? Talk about Weapons of Mass Destruction, that’s what you Republicans are. You are so hell bent on having your way that you actually voted for someone you had to have known in your heart was bad for our country. Admit it, if you are capable of looking within yourself, you know a little voice told you W was bad. But no, you’d rather wreck the country than see a Democrat in office. The worst thing the last Democrat did was lie to the country about having sex with a fat chick. The worst thing your guy did was lie to the country about his reasoning for go to war. Please, do us all a favor and stop voting. In the very least, that should be the penalty for wrecking a nation with bad judgment.
