So I am thinking about "Who Would Imagine A King", that song from the Preacher's Wife soundtrack. And I am thinking, just wow! I love that f*&^%$g song! And the voice that delivered it was one of a kind. I say was because she isn't with us anymore. If you won't miss Whitney Houston (demons and all) you sure as hell will miss her voice. I know I will. So anyway, I have to say a few words about the CPAC folks down in D.C. before I call it a night. I want to say this in all seriousness to my... Read Full Story

I sure hope that his Oness comes up with a plan really fast to try to bring down rising tuition costs. Because, here in A-merry-ca, college kids are getting desperate. "Hundreds of female college students are looking for more than a college degree to secure their future. Why have bills and student loans when you can get some old rich guy to pay them? Temple University is No. 5 on the list of colleges and universities that have young women looking for “sugar daddies” on SeekingArrangement.com... Read Full Story

"Two clauses in the First Amendment guarantee freedom of religion. The establishment clause prohibits the government from passing legislation to establish an official religion or preferring one religion over another. It enforces the "separation of church and state." Some governmental activity related to religion has been declared constitutional by the Supreme Court. For example, providing bus transportation for parochial school students and the enforcement of "blue laws" is not prohibited... Read Full Story

I want to start my racism chase tonight by heading to the western end of Pistolvania , my home state. But, before I go there, I am going to take a detour to Atlanta, Georgia. Where, recently, ignorance was on display and in full effect. (No, not the CNN studios .) "ATLANTA - A 20-year-old victim who was brutally beaten by a gang of men has spoken out about his ordeal. Brandon White, who is openly gay, says he just wants the men who attacked him to be held accountable for their actions... Read Full Story

Man I can't believe that Rick [I should be in a] Sanitarium is beating up on Flipper tonight . I thought that  Flipper had this thing wrapped up. These conservatives sure are making it hard for Mr. Stiff.  Missouri is just a beauty contest , so it means nothing in terms of delegates.  These candidates didn't really spend money in the states in play tonight, and where there is no need for money Flipper falters. He has a lot of money, but that's about it. Talk about underwhelming. He swamped... Read Full Story

It's the day after the Super Bowl, and wingnuts are still up in arms over that Clint Eastwood commercial .  The one where he touts the A-merry-can auto industry and the city of Detroit for making a comeback. The wingnuts, of course, believe that it's all some kind of subliminal Obama plot . And that Eastwood is some kind of Obama operative .(Eastwood voted for McCain in the last election) . Honestly, you need a PhD in craziness to figure out what goes on in the mind of a wingnut. You would... Read Full Story

It's halftime at the Super Bowl. But rather than watch AARP rocker, Madonna, do her thing, I think I will do a little blogging. I saw all  the commercials so far, and this is my take: Animals- especially dogs- are really in. A-merry-ca is still in love with rap and music, and music they consider "hip" to sell things. Jar jar Binks will be back this summer in 3D . (Whhyyyy?!) And I saw Howard Stern doing his best Bull Connor imitation for another shameless NBC promotion of one of their shows... Read Full Story

The republicans are having a caucus in Nevada tonight. *Yawn* I suspect that this will be Flipper by a mile. This is going to be battle for second place.   Poor republicans, they just can't put their arms around Flipper . Something about the guy just doesn't sit right with them. And they worry that if he beats his Oness they don't know what he will do once Mrs. Flipper takes her fine linen and Christofle silverware to Pennsylvania, Avenue.   But they better get used to him, because like it or...

By now everyone has heard of the latest wingnut manufactured scandal against his Oness . It's the one with the movie title: "Fast and Furious" I think they are calling it. This is where we are supposed to believe that a bunch of right wingnuts really give a s*&^ about a bunch of brown people South of the border who lost their lives because of a dumb scheme by the ATF  to stop the flow of weapons into Mexico. So anyway, they had a dog and pony show  congressional hearing in Washington and the... Read Full Story

With all due respect to Don McLean and my A-merry-can friends, tomorrow will not be the anniversary of the day the music died . That happens to be May 11, 1981 . I just thought I would throw that out there before I start this post. Anyway, I want to talk about A-merry-can exceptionalism tonight. Flipper has been talking about that a lot lately. He has been saying that if elected he will return A-merry-ca to what she was before this Socialist took office.  "The shining city on a hill" is what...
