Who needs enemies...

when you've got friends like this? I have seen some wacky people on cable, and not just local cable access channels, who make ya wonder if they should really be allowed to speak publicly...Pat Robertson is one of these people. I keep wondering what he's going to have to say to drive the men in white coats to come over with the special jacket. Apparently, suggesting the assassination of a world leader does not count...(though, he does have a point about our not spending $200 Billion on a war when some covert team could go in...I was saying for years that if folks really wanted to get Saddam, why couldn't they just send in some SWAT team to go get him and bring him back here?...and does this mean perhaps that Robertson is a little tired of the Iraq war, hmmmmm?)

And speaking of people talking crazy, conservative talk show host Michael Graham of WMAL has been fired after referring to Islam on his show as a "terrorist organization" (during the show that got him fired, he made this reference 23 times). The station was ready to take him back after a three week suspension, as long as he apologized and declared that his statements were "overly broad", but Graham has refused to concede saying that "...I will not apologize for something that is true." my first thought was "when you die and meet Allah, what are you going to say?" and my second thought was "well, you are just a dumbass...who looks like a pasty blond Richard Reed..."

I know the whole "Christopher Walken for President" is a hoax, but man wouldn't you love to hear how he would handle folks like this? *my friend Eric and I had far too much fun creating conversations President Walken would have had with Kim Jong Il among others..."I just don't think, Kim, that this is perhaps...the best..path...for you to be taking right now..."*

And speaking of Christopher Walken speaking, I would like to believe that he would perhaps have avoided his Pulp Fiction speech in front of the VFW crowd but it still would have been more entertaining than the schlock Bush delivered yesterday and will continue to spew in Idaho today...there were some vets there who support Bush and the war, but even among Bush's supporters, many vets believe that the policy and planning was poorly thought out..."I think the president was listening too much to his secretary of defense," said Dennis Guthrie of Redmond, Ore., a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars national council. "He should have been listening to Colin Powell."...see there's fighting to keep the country safe, and then there's inspiring a whole new load of terrorists...

And speaking of Iraq...who else is hearing the Doris Day classic "perhaps, perhaps, perhaps..."? Apparently, they came up with an draft for the constitution yesterday...but not all of it...and are still fighting over some stuff...and have delayed the vote again (anyone see George's eye twitching when he speaks about how positive things are going over there?)

And speaking of things that are making George twitch, a second military officer has come forward to verify that there was indeed a covert intelligence team sent out to check on terrorists and named Mohammed Atta as a leader of a terror cell a year before the 9/11 attacks...and weren't allowed to warn to FBI about this...

and while I'm not sure this is making George twitch, but it makes me twitch a little...how does a non-government outsider work the Commerce Department? With a lot of help from the President's friends...

And then just for fun...here in NYC, the race for Hillary's seat is...entertaining. The GOP doesn't even fully support Jeanne Pirro and then..if anyone thought Bill was bad, he's got nothing on Albert Pirro...
this sorta makes me think a bit about how the last time ted Kennedy was up for reelection, the GOP, desperate to have someone to run against him, found Jackie Robinson, Jr...a distant relation to Jackie Robinson, who happened to be Republican...and also happened to have a drug habit, and rap sheet for spousal abuse, and was just crazy...no one is presently running against Ted Kennedy again this time either...

So before you call Tucker Carlson (877-TCarlson) and ask him about how he feels about the Hillary/Jeanne run (or something like has he ever given his bowties to Goodwill? and does he know about the latest Gallup poll saying that Bush has a %36 approval rating?) KEEP E-MAILING! E-mail, call, fax, write, your friends and family, the press and your Congressfolk and let them know that you are PAYING ATTENTION!!! And as always, pass it on, pass it on!

Peace --Alex
