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.
