Newsflash!

You know the holiday season has arrived when The Machine has stopped feeding on John Kerry's carcass after 12 months, and has moved on to other bogeymen with which to be victimized and outraged.

Today's edition: George Soros? Wants to ban Christmas.

And O'Reilly said it, so you know it must be twue.

I'm a bad liberal

I cannot bring myself to care too much about the 1000th person executed since the death penalty was reinstated. He sounded like a right bastard.

The number is meaningless. It's simultaneously too low and too high.

I was watching Keith Oberman (sp?) and he pointed out that there was merchandise on the Fox web page that were O'Reilly Factor Holiday ornaments. Not Chirstmas orgnaments but Holiday ornaments. In fact every Christmas related item was called a Holiday this or that. Pretty funny.

Heh. The War on Christmas cracks me up. Dear god, people, do we have to fight over every. single. fucking. thing. Fighting over a parking space in order to go Christmas shopping is bad enough.

The problem is that you have four cable news channels that are on twenty four hours a day and there is no news. Communism and Fascism are dead or dying. The whole world is democratising and embracing capitalism. The political debates these days are over shades of Grey. The murder rate is dropping at massive rates.

They are running out of things to talk about. So they need to create these false crisis. Unless Global warming is true, and it turns out to be very catasrophic, once we pull out of Iraq these guys won't have anything to talk about.

Is there anyone that does not think this is a completely irresponsible statement and sharply undercuts our efforts on the war on terror?
To the extent that there is still anyone who takes her nicotine- and Chardonnay-induced ramblings as evidence of anything more than advanced chronic hypoglycemia, possibly having led to breakdown of the blood-brain barrier and subsequent widespread oxidative damage to her telencephalon synapses, then I think those persons would have to agree with you.

They're not quite as good as your Guernica or Gilligan posts for moving the ball downfield. As for accuracy, you really need a lot more Hillary. And Elian.

But we all applaud the effort.

p.s. Is this a whiff?

Penske would have found a topless fake that gave her the tits of a 23 year old. Or Jennifer Aniston.

The old Hank would have accused Hillary of putting the hit out on her.

A couple years ago, I gave my SIL Star of David Xmas tree ornaments and my sister a menorah with jingle bells on it.
