Don’t stick it out unless you’re gonna use it!

Poor Jenna

Jenna Bush Sticks Tongue Out at News Photographers – Now, I’m really not keen at targeting presidential kids. I found it loathsome when our pillpopping-divorcing-his-third-wife paragon of virtue, values and morality Rush Limbaugh picked up a photo of a very insecure 13 year old Chelsea Clinton and called her “The White House dog”.

God damn… some things should just be off-limits.

Now you say, “then why are you doing THIS you fucking hypocrite?”. Well, moron, why don’t you let me finish before you pass judgment, ok asshole?

First of all, I think the Bush twins are kinda hot (they’re 22, I can say that). But do you get the impression that Jenna doesn’t want to be doing this? I’ve seen several photos of her and Barbara on the campaign trail… and in each of them they look like they’d rather be doing something else instead of being dragged across the countryside by their dad to meet fat, ugly middle Americans with missing teeth, smell like mothballs and being touched by their kids whom you can only pray have most of their shots…

(I know you were expecting me to say “…like hit a bar?”. Shut up. Like I said, I said, I’m not INTO taking potshots at them.) Point is… they REALLY don’t seem thrilled. It’s like me dragging my daughters around town to shop for new golf clubs. Those poor girls must be bored silly.

No, I can’t imagine the pain

Almost three years ago, I took a stand against showing any photos of people jumping to their deaths FROM the World Trade Center.

Not out of weakness, or the inability to face life at its most gruesome… but out of consideration and sympathy. New York City is an hour away FROM here. I can’t think of anything crueler than watching someone you love face their final moments on this earth.

Over and over… and over.

I did the same today with the video of Nicholas Berg being beheaded.
His family lives here in Pennsylvania. An hour away or so in the other direction.

I don’t see politics here, I don’t see business. I certainly don’t see the “public’s right to know”.

I see a family in a great deal of pain right now, and a kind of torment I can’t possibly imagine.

My tears go out to Michael Berg and his family tonight. And my heart truly breaks for you.

God bless… :*(

Now with FOX News spin action

Who was the President then?
Oh, right a Democrat. The people with such a silly irrational fear of commies that we needed to fight two wars in Southeast Asia because of it. 

Funny how any screw ups involving Republicans is stated “Republican”, yet monumental fuck ups of epic proportions like “Vietnam”, “Putting Saddam in power”, and the “Hostage crisis”… it’s simply billed as “American” mistakes.

– Erox, the merciless –

That’s right, kiddies… in the spirit of debate, and for a limited time only, watch me defend the Bush administration, the Iraq war, and trash Democrats in ways Michele, Acidman and Glen Reynolds can only dream.

Drinking the Kool-Aid™

For those that don’t quite get the reference (but are afraid to ask), it’s basically the new catch phrase being tossed around on all sides of the political spectrum.

It’s in reference to the 1978 mass suicides in Jonestown, Guyana by the cult of Reverend Jim Jones. They believed his every word, they slaughtered a Congressman and his entourage, and they drank cyanide-laced kool-aid… because Rev. Jim said so.

Whatta RUSH™ flavored... mmmm!To make this new phrase easier for Americans to understand, Kool-Aid has a new line of flavors

So when you’re a lefty buying in to all of the silly 9/11 conspiracy theories because no one in the White House is talking… you’re “drinking the Kool-Aid

If you’re a winger following this administration without question because at least no one is getting nookie in the Oval Office and lying under oath about it… you’re “drinking the Kool-Aid

(via Blunted on Reality)
Me? I drink Coca Cola exclusively.
How about you?

Getting the job done…

State Representative Kelly Lewis’ campaign site.

KellyLewis.ComIf all you see is a graphic that says “Launching March 1st”… well, that aint it (and don’t ask!). The new site is currently in propagation and you’ll see it in the next day or two. There will be tons of stuff added in the next few weeks, some PHP magic and my pushing some scripts FAR beyond the limits it was originally designed for.

We all worked together on The Reasons for Christmas Project, which helped raise money for an organization that helps homeless families get back on their feet.

I’m pleased and honored to be a part of the team again.

He’s a good man, good for this county… and he really does “Get the job done”.

(Well in all fairness, with a lot of help FROM his staff too. With all of the issues they have to deal with in this screwed-up ‘burg… It’s easy to spot me and his right-hand man, Jon, at the local diner… we’re the “really tired-looking guys” ready to zonk out INTO our lunches. zzzzzz *THUD*) :0)

What’s coming up in 1984… uhm, I mean 2004

My stats are ridiculously low… at least here on WHUZZUP. I hear that same complaint on a lot of blogs I visit too. Like people went off on summer vacation, and never came back. (Most likely it’s “Supply and Demand”. I couldn’t *possibly* visit every site I link to in one sitting. And I’m sure I’ve pissed off everyone at this point to insure I’m not a “must read” anywhere.)

Elsewhere, my stats dictate it’s painfully obvious that the people want escapism and entertainment.

You may think I’m out of my mind for saying this… but I’m relieved.
This takes the pressure off of me HAVING to write here constantly. I have way better things to do, like unroll a 2004 redesign (or three with a “skinning option”), make much-needed repairs on my fonts, free stuff, and e-cards sections… bring back the “The Guestbook FROM Hell”.

And most of all, not have to discuss politics. I hate talking politics.
It turns people off as much as my flame wars did.

2004 Predictions: If you thought blogland was ugly with the Iraq war… you ain’t seen nothing yet. The Presidential race will be the nastiest viper pit of mudslinging, and emotionally immature and ignorant turdfest imaginable, and the web will definitely be one of the frontlines.

As much as I’d love to slam back at all of the “bad asses” who are just beginning to be aware of world events, and are suddenly “experts”… I’d rather leave that to the pros.

Newz Breefz

Please don’t sit on our furniture!
Strom Thumond Jr. has to face the horrifying prospect of welcoming a half-sister (half-negro) INTO the Thurmond household, Daddy Strom gladly sets the record straight.

There have been no reports of Bill Clinton HAVING a half-brother (half redneck) coming out of the woodwork lately… but when there are we’ll DEFINITELY keep you posted!

Mohammed Atta/Saddam/John Hinkley Jr. link
The Mohammed Atta/Saddam link printed in the Telegraph is most likely a forgery.

But not to worry, Warbloggers like HipperCritical have already vowed to never let trivial things like the “facts” get in the way of a good rant.
Update: 9:41PM – LOL! You know, it’s bad enough when someone makes a fool of themselves, but nothing makes me lose respect faster than a man who can’t stand by his own words… it appears “wussy-boy” re-wrote his post to appear more cautious when he was called on his bullshit.

Too bad I have a screenshot of the original post.

“Let the groveling begin…” hahaha!!!! Yeah right, WIMP!

Update: 12/19 8:45PM – Glenn’s a nice guy, and I’m just HAVING fun with him. Go visit HipperCritical.

Congratulations Mike Fisher

I can’t find any news articles to link to, but I’d like to offer my heartfelt congratulations to Attorney General Judge Mike Fisher, as he was sworn in to the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday, appointed by President Bush and approved by the Senate.

Those who were here two years ago recall he had my full support when he ran against Ed Rendell for Governor of Pennsylvania.

Those who were here three years ago, remember he was one of the few lawmen to give my family a break and work with us when we had all our legal woes after buying a bad business FROM a con man, and getting stuck with the bills, threats and headaches.

(Despite a legal precedent set in New Jersey, which returned an indictment for said con man, most Pennsylvania courts decided to screw us ov… *deep cleansing breath*… it’s all in the past, let it go, nobody cares… pins and needles, needles and pins… *EXHALE*)

Anyway…
He’s a good man, a true crimefighter, and I’m happy for him/sorry to see him go.
Congratulations, Mike!!!

SoApBoX: Mission Accomplished… uhm, again

You know…

I *TRIED* to be nice. I figured I would stay out of trouble for the next few months so I can fix some things here, I wouldn’t get political until after the political conventions this summer…

I thought my response below was gracious and honest, and then warbloggers had to play let’s gloat and piss all over the place and litter “anti-warblogger” comments, and ruin what was an awesome day for America and Iraq.

So in keeping with the “there’s an equal and opposite reaction” law, here’s the rest of my response of yesterday’s news:
Mission Accomplished… uhm, again

Saddam captured (without political commentary)

Saddam Inssein

This is a good thing.
I choose to side skip all of the disgusting additional commentary I’m hearing on all sides of the debate (for now), and offer my congratulations to the brave men and women of the armed forces who made this victory for decent human beings possible. You rock!

It’s a day for celebration, not for a bunch of left/right wing nutjobs trying to further their agenda and justifications. He was a bad man, who is about to face the music for all of the horrible things he’s done… end of story.
