• Buffett hosts a $500 a head fundraiser for Barack Obama! Oh yeah!! Waaaastin’ awaaaay again in Margaritaville! Oh. Wait. That’s Warren Buffett. In that case, who gives a crap?

• U of O professor discovers that less than 2% of factual errors made by the daily papers are corrected. For example, in today’s Oregonian? The weather says it’s 78 degrees and it’s FREEZING!

• Karl Rove claims that people who criticize Bush are “sort of elite, effete snobs who can’t hold a candle to this guy. What they don’t like about him is that he is common sense, that he is Middle America.” Riddle: How many effete snobs does it take to hold a candle to Bush? Answer: Only one… unless he’s mentally retarded.

• Elvis Presley: Still dead, still bewilderingly popular.

Isn't that Elvis inpersonator John Belushi?

Fucking Rove.

Nothing pisses me off more than this myth that George Bush is just a good ol' boy from Crawford, Texas. Does everyone forget that his father was director of the CIA, then Vice President, then President of the United States? Not to mention an oil millionaire? I repeat, he was RAISED BY A MILLIONAIRE WHO WAS ALSO KING OF THE SPIES.

Or that Bush somehow got into Yale despite his grades and SAT scores being way, way below their admission requirements? (How many C-students do you know that got into an Ivy League university?)

Yeah. That sure sounds like "middle America" to me.

That's not a camel toe. That's a moose knuckle.

Hear, hear, Beaton. As a Texan, I'm so fucking sick of hearing that the place is the root of all evil from people who have never even been there.

You want to meet some folks that truly, truly hate, and I mean hate Dubya and his gang of forty thieves ? Go to Central Texas.
