My mother is hooked on the F/X series "Over There" She said, "When the show ends and the song comes on, I get goosebumps on my arms." (me too--the show is so reality-based TV)
My mom is a rare breed--she's more than 50-years-old, an Award-winning Artist, white christian and observer of spiders. (that shouldn't make sense to anyone but me)
Everybody here seems to enjoy the West Wing series.
I think I'd rather follow in her footsteps...Why? Because she loves me. Because she worries about the American people being "nothing."
Every day, I tell her, "There's hope! We have Conyers and Boxer."
She cheers me on and tells me "I'm depending on you to tell me." Read More

Well, Jeb Bush and minions give everybody but themselves a great, big Fuck You! http://www.palmbeachpost.com/state/content/state/epaper/2005/07/06/m1_fathers_Q706.html

Apparently, Jebbie thinks that every Floridian child needs to have a biblical foundation along with the "draw" of professional athletes to promote that "the father is the head of the household"
Jebbie unveiled his Radical Right Fringe involvement in the program--All Pro Dad--after Father's Day.
According to the article by Dara Karn, the 'program' is also designed to help men 'rely on God to help them be better parents and keep their marriages intact along with Bible reading'

Please help me debunk this kool-aid drinker's letter to the editor: http://www.herald-dispatch.com/letterstoeditor.html
This newspaper reaches a tri-state area to include Ashland, KY, rural SE OH and Huntington, W.Va.
I was stationed at Fort Riley, KS when Daddy Bushco cut the military forces and closed down several bases. Civilians and military folks alike gathered around their televisions worried sick that Fort Riley would be on the chopping block.
W.Va. will be effected this time and there's concern: http://webx.hdonline.com/cgi-bin/WebX?50@124.qSbeaTjbDL@1dcd889e
It's easy to see McMee is this local forum's troll.
Thanks to anyone who replies. I'll share the letter here after they print it. Read More

While this diary may seem a ridiculous in light of what's going on in the world, I can't forget one detail the MSM thoughtfully provided.
Does anyone else remember the finger being described by experts as "well-manicured"?
Would a man who lost his finger in an industrial accident get manicures? Weird.

Republican Rep. John McHugh of New York has apparently been listening to the rhetoric of the radical "Concerned Women of America."
Go here http://www.house.gov/hasc/ and http://www.defense.gov to see this contempt of women disguised as concern.
I'm a woman. I'm a veteran who served during Operation Desert Storm. NOBODY in their right should harbor any doubts about the Bush Administration's intentions of wanting America's women barefoot and pregnant!!
McHugh's quote from a news article about this at http://news.yahoo.com/
"The current policy does not serve women well," said McHugh. "The current policy places them in a company and treats them as equal until it's time to move forward and then they have to be left behind." Read More

Yes!! They DO sell beautiful clothes, sexy bras&panties, make-up, hair/skin care products in Saudi Arabia! The Saudis also like to hold town square stonings. Of course most women in Saudi Arabia haven't experienced any other way of life.
American women, speak up! Do you want to look attractive if you have to wake up everyday and decide which radically-colored chidora would look best on you?!
Would you really give a fuck about soft skin? After all--who needs lotion when your body is erupting with boils and pimples due to heat, sweat and the inability for the skin to breathe.
Hey, Corporate America!! In this "worst-case scenario" we do NOT need YOUR fucking shit anymore.
American women don't hide. American women don't cower. American women have lust for life. American women have courage. Real American women see through your Political Pimps.
This diary is a direct promise to corporate lobbyists. Real American women do NOT support the nuclear option. Real American women want to see the Radical Right Fringe (AKA KKK) stand up and oppose corporate greed.

The U.S. lost contact Monday night with two U.S.Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornets in Iraq, a statement said.
Details are still sketchy, but the military (according to Reuters) indicated there was 'no initial indication of hostile fire in the area where contact was lost.'
I just caught the headline and decided to pass it on...I just hope this isn't another "RunawayFuckingBride Headline" (don't they LUV the 'Runaway bride' distraction? May God have Mercy....

I steeled myself and visited freeperville today. Besides the usual American Idol nonsense in the general topics zone, a headline written by someone named dukeman, "A Far Left-Wing Mood Sampler: depression, fear, dismay, anger, hatred..."
Dukeman visited KOS and listed numerous Kossack posts about a depression diary. I'm going to quote some of the funnier replies the dukeman received.
But first, a choice quote from dukeman himself--"I thought it might be a good time to check on the state of mental health among the far left."
The posts dukeman received are quite funny and suggest maybe he should be more concerned about mental health in freeperville.

According to CBS news correspondent Mark Strassman, Alabama Republican lawmaker Gerald Allen thinks he knows what's best for everyone and has proposed a bill that would ban public school libraries from buying new copies of books or plays by gay authors or about gay characters.
A particularly juicy quote CBS features is, "It's not healthy for America, it doesn't fit what we stand for. And they will do whatever it takes to reach their goal." Apparently, Allen is referring to the nefarious but unfounded homosexual agenda. Read More

I've yet to rate someone's comment. Why? For some reason, I have no desire to do so. I'm more interested in reading the diaries and deciding which one(s)I should recommend. That gives me a helluva lot more grief than how someone perceived a comment. My belief is this: trolls are short-lived and vapid with their thoughts. Most intelligent or down-to-earth people with BS detectors recognize this.
Admittedly, I've recieved lots&lots of undeserved ONEs, Lots of in-between and a some soul-pleasing 4's.
After all, the reason we're all here is because we see outside our box--that's only my simple, personal observation. Am I a trusted user? No. Does that bother me? No--I believe my diaries and posts will speak for themselves because I'm here to stay!

This is going to short and sweet. On Wednesday, Joe Scab-burrow will be "discussing" the minutemen. Anyone who visits Freeperville will know how those nutcases feel about minutemen. The (freepers) April Fool's "dream article" was the whole nation of patriotic Americans "finally" viewing them as the heroes they are!? WTF? The regular Joe propaganda makes me hurl. Whoever viewed Tuesday's show: you didn't miss much except he's fanning the blue/red flames with Hollywood drivel--literally and visually.

Oh, don't we all salivate for something like that? Happy April Fool's Day everybody. Yes, this is short, cheap and to the point--much to my dismay of Bushco. May Bush, Cheney, his minions and the MSM burn in "their" hell for their greed, sins and self-imposed pride. Yes, I screwed up the headline because it should read. "Terri's Family wants" oops.
I love this site. Don't you?
