In the biggest example of sour grapes I've ever seen, the Florida GOP is selling a portrait of Charlie Crist, as well--allegedly--removing his signature from party documents. The nastiest thing of all is what they wrote in the description of the portrait for sale:

Back in November, there was a considerable GLBT protest pf the Evanston Century 12 in Illinois. The reason was because Alan Stock, CEO of Cinemark, the corporation that owns Century Theater, gave a personal contribution of $9,999 to support Proposition 8. This was especially ironic, since this theatre had no qualms about running films like Brokeback Mountain and Milk. The protest was, naturally, the result of the Illinois gay community's shock and disgust at the passage of Prop 8 and holding those responsible for supporting this hideous endeavor financially.

I have no intention of following Kos format because it's late and I don't have time to follow the rules, per say. Facts are as follows.

1.) Saw a friend of mine tonight.

2.) He said Chase management sent out a misleading e-mail to its employees indicating that because of the government's recent meddling in executive bonuses, their own bonuses would be in jeopardy...forget the fact, they didn't mention that the bonus would have to be in the range of over 100,000.00 dollars or more to be questioned, thus protecting the earnings of the fat cats whose earnings are well beyond the $200,000.00 range.

3.) Chase is planning on two new corporate jets and a new hanger in Westchester to avoid the "glare" on landing in New York City.

Forgive me if something similar has been posted already, but do indulge me this happy dance! James Dobson's (You know, you may have read about his creepy shower festish from an earlier post) Focus on the Family, after dumping $500,000.00 dollars into Proposition 8, announced another round of layoffs today, amid budget cuts at the so-called 'ministry!' Maybe they should've taken the gays' advice and focused on their own damn families! Isn't Karma lovely!???

I know the Freerepublic is not something rational human beings should ever come in contact with, but this was recently brought to my attention by a friend--who in all fairness warned me to sit down before I read it and maybe even pop a tranquilzer beforehand. I wish I'd taken his advice. We all know the crack-pottery of the right and how hypocrisy more often than not dove tails quite nicely with their outlook on reality, but this is beyond the pale! For a group so hell bent against stem cell research and abortion, there was actually one jackass who apparently sees no distinction between himself and Dr. Josef Mengele.

I kid you not. This comes from a loon site called CitizenLink. The reason for the speaker wanting people to pray to wash out Obama's moment? You guessed it, because the speaker Stuart Shepard is "pro-life" and "pro traditional marriage." (Never mind that people can no longer afford kids or to get married in the economy these pro-life Republicans have destroyed over the past 8 years. Could these people be anymore pathetic? Honestly!

You have Hillary and McCain trying to play politics as usual and addressing non-issues like those that actually cause a supposedly 'enlightened' people to vote for the likes of right wing shills like George W. Bush and John McCain. Unless McCain nominates an idiot like Mitt Romney, you will probably see him as the next President of the United States. Why? Because Hillary is not offering enough of an argument to actually make you believe that she--a polarizing figure already hated in most of the red states--could be a viable candidate for the Presidency in 2008. I have a friend in North Carolina who said to me, "If you don't think any Southerner capable of getting out of his/her deathbed to vote AGAINST Hillary wouldn't, then you're sadly mistaken. We didn't like Bill or his wife then, and we like her even less now!"

I don't know if it's the responses you've gotten from Kossacks or the buzz from the likes of Fox, CNN, and ABC, but for some reason, you've apparently decided to give Karl Rove a run for his money in the area of Mayberry's newest Machiavelli! Since seem so cock-sure of gambling with all our futures, why don't you take a more personal stake in this?

I don't care how many times someone's responded along these lines to the original inane post encouraging Democrats to vote for Multiple Mitt Romey, but I wanted to thorw in my two cents for whatever they're worth and appeal to reason here. I don't believe the majority took the post seriously enough, but just seeing as many rocket scientists as I did in the comments section respond with "Brilliant" or "What a great idea Kos," was enough to send a chill down my spine that anyone couldn't see Mitt's now desperate campaign morphing into a kind of political Trogan Horse virus right here on Kos!

Recently, someone posted a film clip of Mitt Romney's debate with Ted Kennedy, challenging hime for his Senate seat. Romney lost, of course, but decided to remain in the Bay State and pursue a less glamourous job, that of Govnernor of the Commonwealth. Romney painted himself as a pro-choice, pro gay rights moderate Repubublican, in the same veign as the former and very popular GOP governor, Bill 'Pink Floyd' Weld. After winning the office, Beacon Hill would be transformed into Romney's permanent campaign platform, from which he would go from moderate Chancellor Palpatine Romney, to far right Darth Romney!

I was at a local watering hole last night and wanted to play a song I often do by Green Day...the anti right wing, obviously anti Fox News ditty called 'American Idiot' which was one of the most powerful anti-media/thought control songs ever made in the post 911 age. I was wondering if anyone else had noticed that or would check it out the next time they were near one of these machines.
