The Supreme Court unanimously upheld the 19th Amendment to the Constitution guaranteeing the right of women to vote on this date in 1922.
I wonder how many in the Grand 'Ol Party/Perverts are regretting THAT decision?! I also wonder if "the comedian" will bring this up in his quest for discovering why "the fairer sex" doesn't like him? ;D Yea, I doubt it, too.
And, happy 69th birthday to Howard Hesseman, better known in these & Countdown parts as Johnnie Fever on WKRP in Cincinnati. Now, ya' know I HAVE TO play the Thanksgiving turkey drop clip, right?! :D
Let's Countdown!
#5 "Reality on the Ground" AKA "Exit Strategy" AKA "Withdrawal Symptoms" AKA "War More Years" - President Obama announced today that our combat mission in Iraq will end on August 31, 2010. How many more will die by then? EVERYONE is supposed to be out by the end of 2011 per the SOFA (Status of Forces Agreement). President Obama called GWB just before his announcement! I wonder why? GWB’s a private citizen now. Couldn’t he just hear about it on the news like everyone else? So far, the GOP in Congress doesn’t have a problem with this decision. Some Dems in Congress, however, do. RICHARD WOLFFE! Keith jumped a little too hastily on the "GWB sounding" bandwagon just because President Obama said he didn’t pay attention to polls in coming to this decision. I like how Richard pointed out the fact that other things were said in that interview with Jim Leherer that GWB would NEVER had said! And, Richard pointed out the timing of these deadlines, too. President Obama ain’t a moran like the previous occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. was. I just LOVE that Richard Wolffe [insert image of me fanning myself here]! Thomas Ricks thinks troops will be in Iraq longer than anyone expects. Well, duh! How long have we been in Japan? How long have we been in Korea? Combat brigades are going to be renamed as "advisory units", according to Mr. Ricks. Won’t violence break out in Iraq no matter when we leave? I think Mr. Ricks may be being a bit of an alarmist. I respect him & appreciate the great work he’s done, but I think he underestimates President Obama’s ability to listen, to change, and to think critically. President Obama IS NOT "W"!
#4 "Mea CPACulpa" AKA "CPAC Mentality" - Conservative values are "...right for America...," according to Michael Steele. And, Michele Bachmann tried to demonstrate her hip - hop cred. That woman...I swear... *&^%$#@! I’m beginning to enjoy her about as much as I do Grandma Gov. TurkeyLover. Tom DeLay wants President Obama to fail, too. Why isn’t he in jail? Newt Gingrich gave a speech this morning about the "Bush/Obama Regime"?! WTF??!! OK, these "people" are just ill – I mean, seriously; they have SERIOUS mental issues. If there are any shrinks – in – training at CPAC, they will have a lifetime’s worth of notes into "unbalanced" behavior! Did y’all catch the giant Grandma Gov. TurkeyLover posters apparently being sold at CPAC?! Can I have one at which to throw darts or any other sharp objects I see lying around my house? Please?! PRETTY PLEASE??!! If CPAC is the "mainstream of the Republican party," good golly! "The comedian" gives a speech there tomorrow. Oh, that ought to be GOOD.
** Those crazy Japanese are at it again in a muddy rice paddy. Snakes are on mother f*ckin’ bicycles in Virginia! There’s ice instruments at a jazz club in Italy. Be careful on that ice trumpet or saxophone or trombone or flute! I LOVED the Christmas Story reference toward the end! A DUI driver parked in the garage of the officer arresting him; once again, I’ve had days like that. An octopus flooded offices at an aquarium. It’s the animal conspiracy at work! **
#3 "Dumb & Plumber" AKA "C – Packing Heat" AKA "Right Off the Deep End" - Joe T. Plumber wants to go back to the good ‘ol days of shooting people who don’t agree with you. Senator DeMint called our President a socialist salesman. Eugene Robinson said things are "...getting bizarre." Honey, I love ya’, but things have been bizarre for a LONG DAMN TIME with this CPAC crop! Eugene, you silly goose, Joe T. Plumber isn’t an "idiot"; he’s a real Amerikun, you librul elite latte’ sipper! ;D
StillBUSHED! "Bailout – Gate" The NBA’s getting a bailout, too? Does that mean ticket prices will go down? "Jindal – Gate" Someone from the "good Governor’s" office admitted Bobby may have fibbed a little the other night. "Contract – Gate" Companies banned from receiving federal contracts because they had defrauded our government (among other ilk) got new contracts from GWB & his peeps.
WPITW – Mr. Bull Snort is obsessing about ratings again. Glenn Beck is hallucinating about what’s in the stimulus bill – AGAIN. The CEO of Europe’s biggest budget airline wants to charge people to potty mid – flight. My morning radio silly guys brought up the exact prospect that Keith did! They also mentioned the possibility of passengers going potty in the barf bags.
#1 "Off Da Hook" AKA "Bachmann Plumber Overdrive" - There’s Michele Bachmann – AGAIN. That voice...Jeebus... "The comedian" is getting a "Defender of the Constitution" award. Isn't that in a similar vein of giving Jack the Ripper an award for his knife skills?
