Another economic stimulus check?!

I could use some new clothing and I definitely need a hair cut. Since the RNC won't send me any cash, maybe Congress will slip me a few bucks...

Gotta share...

This would probably funny if Sarah didn't think it was true...

Discovery

I woke up a litte after 3 this morning. I went downstairs to make coffee and empty the dishwasher while I waited for my first cup of consciousness. That took all of about 7 minutes. I hiked up to the studio (third floor), turned on the computer and read my email. Another 8 minutes or so. Then I read all the blogs I follow and made comments where I felt so inclined.

Now it is a little after 4am. Grace crawled up on my bed as soon as I got up so I have no cat issues. I could sew but I am totally unmotivated and I only sew when I feel like it. My house is clean, no dishes in the sink and I have nothing to do. Zippy...nada...zilch.

My discovery? It's damned boring at 4:15am when you live alone. Maybe I should get a dog...

The war in Iraq has nothing to do with my freedom

There...I said it. Sarah Palin told a heckler today that her son was over in Iraq to protect the gentleman's freedom to protest (and presumably free speech). Damn it! The war in Iraq has nothing to do with freedom of speech in the United States. More freedoms have been trampled by this administration and their war on terror than have ever been upheld.

The underlying reasons for the war in Iraq are oil and oil profits. Securing Iraqi freedom from oppression and a pompous dictator was secondary.

I do support our troops. That is why I want them to return home. They are overworked and overburdened. I do recognize that they have done much to help the Iraqi people. I simply state that has nothing to do with my freedom in the United States.

Remember?

Do you remember when the Republicans wanted to crucify Bill Clinton because he sought out the advice of Hillary and she was working on health care reform during his first term as President?

Todd Palin (First Dude, First Gentleman, whatever...) has full access to Sarah's office as Governor of Alaska, sat in on closed door meetings, made appointments to meet with various departmental heads referring to "we" when wanting something done, etc.

Guess that kind of access is only a good thing if you are a Republican and the husband of a pit bull in lipstick...

What a shocker!

The NRA endores McCain. Like there was anyone else they were going to choose?
