Let's divorce Ken Starr. He wasted time and money leading the campaign to impeach President Bill Clinton. He filed a legal brief last month -- on behalf of the "Yes on 8" campaign -- that would forcibly divorce 18,000 same-sex couples who were married in California last year before the passage of Prop 8. Can you imagine being told you are no longer married? While it might bring joy to some, for most it would be a devastating intrusion by the government.
There is a movement to watch this video "Fidelity", and sign the letter to the State Supreme court. Do this only if you agree that Ken Starr should not be the arbitor of whether loving committed couples may or may not stay married. DEADLINE: Valentine's Day.73,377 people have signed the letter (as of Sunday, February 8). If you feel moved to join, again the site is couragecampaign.org/
When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the Pre-Christmas pressure.
Then Mrs Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.
When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows where.
Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered.
Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drank all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.
Just then the doorbell rang, and irritated, Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.
The angel said very cheerfully, 'Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?'
And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree.
Rated F for Funny and For First letter of much dialog. On another topic: Personally, I don't ascribe to ageism. Unfortunately, the subject of this clip might lead many to believe in it.
Though a very well done political video I have to steer away from the conclusion that wealthy greedy Republicans are the cause of all our misery. Rather it is the majority of the electorate who vote against their own self interest because of their religious intolerance, nationalist jingoism, racial and ethnic bigotry and of course hating anyone they perceive as being smarter than they are (which of course includes just about everyone.)
The George W. Bush Presidential Library is now in
the planning stages. You'll want to be the first at your corporation to make
a contribution to this great man's legacy. The Library will
include:
1. The Hurricane Katrina Room, which is still under
construction.
2. The Alberto Gonzales Room, where you can't remember
anything.
3. The Texas Air National Guard Room, where you don't have to
even show up.
4. The Walter Reed Hospital Room, where they don't let
you in.
5. The Guantanamo Bay Room, where they don't let you out.
6.
The Weapons of Mass Destruction Room (which no one has been able to
find).
7. The Iraq War Room. After you complete your first tour, they
make you go back for a second, third, fourth, and sometimes fifth
tour.
8. The Dick Cheney Room, in the famous undisclosed location, complete
with shooting gallery.
9. Plans also include: The K-Street Project Gift
Shop - where you can buy (or just steal) an election.
10. The Airport
Men's Room, where you can meet some of your favorite Republican
Senators.
11. Last, but not least, there will be an entire floor devoted to a
7/8 scale model of the President's ego.
To highlight the President's
accomplishments, the museum will have an electron microscope to help you
locate them.
In a move that seemed guaranteed to stir controversy, President Bush
today vetoed a bill that would give candy to over four million babies.
With one stroke of a pen, Mr. Bush vetoed the Candy for Babies Act, a
law that would have expanded candy benefits to America's hungriest
babies.
At the White House, aides to the president said that Mr. Bush was
"unconcerned" that his veto would create the impression that he was, in
effect, taking candy from babies.
"Being president means making tough decisions," said White House press
secretary Dana Perino. "If that means taking candy from babies, so be
it."
Mr. Perino said that the $3 billion saved by vetoing the Candy for
Babies Act would be used for one of Mr. Bush's pet projects, a new
program that would pay people to kick old ladies who are trying to cross
the street.
The funding of the Kicking Old Ladies Act comes on the heels of another
potentially unpopular move by the president, an executive order that
would force puppies and kittens out of animal shelters and onto the
streets in time for the winter.
In other White House news, President Bush responded to criticism of the
Blackwater security firm by hiring a new firm to take over security in
Iraq, a company called Bongwater.
"I met with the Bongwater folks and I liked them," he said. "They seemed
a lot more laid back than Blackwater."
Elsewhere, Britney Spears said she regretted losing custody of her
children "because I was just teaching them how to drive."
"As democracy is perfected, the office of President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day; the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron." H. L. Mencken
