notorious met killer atlanta braves thirdbaseman chipper jones names newborn son shea (as in stadium).

also, not surprisingly, dumb (white) jocks with lots of money trend republican. actually, theyre the ones that are considered bright. one player, carlos delgado of the toronto blue jays did take some heat for being demonstratively anti-war. so, maybe theres still hope for the dominicans.

i love the leader

that is just one painfully absurd question.

remote control

maybe its my recent viewings of pink panther movies but i think john mccain had a minor stroke while praising the clouseau-esque leadership qualities of dick cheney last night. either that or he was fighting off the republican mind control device they had implanted. or maybe the republican mind control device was in a death struggle with the vietcong mind control device for predominance in his addled mind. regardless, it was an entertaining twitch. though, id tell mccain to steer clear of all celebrity poker matches with that kind of tell.

release the floodgates

"It appears to be the case that someone in the Pentagon got wind that Larry Franklin had been flipped, and was terrified that the investigation might go on up the ladder at the Pentagon, in AIPAC, and with the Israelis. So they leaked news of the investigation to make sure that everybody clammed up and shredded everything."

"Here is a summary of the latest posts from all bloggers who are covering the RNC Convention from The Tank in New York City."

"NEW YORK (sPERTS.net) – The New York Mets have made their fans say “good grief” the last two months. Today, they made them say “Augh!”

In a continuing act of desperation to claim a playoff berth, the Mets acquired pitcher Charlie Brown from the Peanuts team for pitcher Jae Wong Seo."

lets just call it treason

all this treason business is just tiresome. cant we get back to figuring out how many times one needs to be shot at over the cambodian border before one is considered a hero? how about some swiftboat logic? if 224 people at the pentagon support feith but only 14 are against does that mean that feith is wholly within his right to launch a nuclear attack against iran?

as long as im ranting, saw chris matthews (and ashley banfield) on bill maher. both seemed considerably more liberal than their msnbc personas. matthews sounded like a campaign operative for kerry in the way he tried to frame the debate for undecided voters. most telling was the conversation maher and matthews had about trying to secure conservative commentators. as i noted earlier, ask probing questions, get blackballed by the gop. lying with impunity = good for america. question authority = treason. (did somebody say treason?) umm, well maybe if everyone asked tough questions eventually little scotty stonewall would be as big a laughingstock as saddams former flack. and whats so bad about liberal viewers. we might not support the military-industrial complex but we do buy lightbulbs.

if only there were a way i could protest this outlaw regime. if i could just find 250,000 other sign baring extremists and hate groupians, im sure we could walk together in an orderly fashion. i just hope noone has to pee.
