I've never been an HW fan, but...umm...and I know I'll probably catch hell for this...I thought that was quite funny. Just like there are wack jobs on both sides of the political spectrum, there are also wack jobs (and ugly people) on both sides of the gender line. Believe me, I know. I drive a cab.
From the way GHWB tells it, it sounds more like an anecdote than something a speechwriter thought up, anyway. And just think, if Junior tried the same schtick, he would have fallen flat on his face, no doubt.
Clinton's dog quip was also pretty funny, I just hope the good folks at PETA don't get too upset over it. Maybe Bush and Clinton ought to team up for a whole new series of "On the Road to..." movies. They couldn't be any worse than Larry the Cable Guys films.
Let's try not to be so serious all the time, after all comedy is subjective.

Virginia's proposed SB1142: Advance medical directives; revises Health Care Decisions Act.
From one of the states that gave us eugenic inspired sterilizations back in the 20s onwards on annoying members of society.
My Mum got dementia, a slow and terrible way to die. When she got too much for my Dad to care for we decided it was time to put her in a nursing home.
She thrived there! She was the life of the party, dancing around, singing, visiting other patients and enjoying the company of others. I know she probably didn't even know her own name but she was happy, if hard to "manage".
One day, unbeknownst to us, the family, a doctor came in and gave her a drug.
She became comatose and died within 5 days. In great agony. She literally burned up from inside.
Did you take any action against the doctors?

South FL is full of little tiny concrete-block houses constructed to identical plans. The residents paint them in rainbow colors. Some people just don't want a tan-and-beige boring bourgeois lifestyle.

Is that Thune or Thane? Anyone checked?
Anyone who ever had the misfortune to take a bill collection job after being out of work one day too long, knows that debtors and crooks change names by a letter or two to evade computerized filing.
Get rid of the Bennett, for sure. In this part of the country, they have house inspection jobs and sell decorating ideas to HGTV which are the intellectual property of the homeowners. Then they raise the homeowner's assessments. I hear that Robertses in N FL are up to the same game.

It would be great to see what Bill Hicks would have to say today. I also always wonder what MLK would be saying. He really got into the anti-war movement and truth movement towards the end of his life. Oh well. Friday will be interesting to see. Although
Bill Hicks - Gays in the Military
Bill Hicks - JFK
Bill Hicks - Rush Limbaugh
Bill Hicks - War in Iraq
first, he would be a god to the left and rich beyond avarice
second, lewis black would be selling insurance
sorry...i shoulda put up a link
i hope that letterman chooses to put it up on the web after airing
A good friend turned me on to Bill Hicks some time ago.
Irreverent, controversial and way ahead of his time, Hicks was an unsung legend of stand up during the '80s and early '90s who died way before his time. I've already set up the DVR and plan on watching his infamous Letterman appearance as soon as I get home from work Saturday morning. Stand up would be a completley different animal nowadays without Bill Hicks influence.
Oh, BTW, would you buy insurance from Lewis Black?
Thanks
Thanks Uncle Joe! Good to see you back after your "vacation."
I don't always agree with you, but always good to have a fellow Bill Hicks fan around...

Corruption favors the wealthy.
Canadian MP, lawyer, and Israeli 'tool for hire' (thats how it comes across).
Being a Canadian citizen he felt the pressing urge to go to Israel and write up a defense for Israel and the IDF.
Does a six part stand up routine as to why its all Hamas's fault why they were on the receiving end of the IDF war machine.
It would be funny and worthy of Monty Python, if it wasn't such a grim subject and the number of deaths involved.
Some of the points are valid, but both sides did them, some points are laughable, pathetic and plain immoral and wrong as point four (in full) is.
He would be disbarred from law if he tried to justify point four in a real impartial court of law, he might get this anyway if the Canadian Bar sees this and acts.
Some points are pure propaganda and unproven as to truth or if official policy.
I wonder if there were lawyer apologists after the event for the 'criminal' Warsaw Ghetto uprising.
I know it's petty, and I know that as a democrat in the new Obama era we are supposed to be charting a new course in how we deal with the opposition party, but Rush Limbaugh's comments really sicken me. And I'm especially disgusted when I remember what Republicans put Democrats thru when MoveOn.org placed that ad in the NYT. The Congress basically shut down while every democrat had to be paraded in front of the cameras to denounce MoveOn, and then were forced to pass a resolution in the House to denounce them. Now we have Rush Limbaugh coming out and saying he hopes the President fails, and instead of running away from him, Republicans are lining up to see who can be the first to give Limbaugh a rim job. I think Pelosi should introduce a resolution against Limbaugh and make the Repubs taste their own medicine.

Iraq won't allow Blackwater to work in country
U.S. embassy told to find new security after contractors' 'improper conduct'
updated 2 hours, 50 minutes ago
BAGHDAD - Iraq will not authorize Blackwater Worldwide, the U.S. Embassy's main security company, to operate in the country anymore, a senior Iraqi official said Thursday.
Interior Ministry spokesman Abdul-Karim Khalaf said his ministry's decision was sent last Friday to the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad and "they have to find a new security company."
Khalaf added that the decision was prompted by what he called the guards' "improper conduct and excessive use of force" in a shooting that killed 17 Iraqi civilians and injured dozens of others in 2007.
Some stuff you can't make up!
my guess is its on to afganistan for blackwater, onward and upward , time to rebuild the kyber pass, fourlanes ,gas stations and waterstations for camels! could be worth billions and blackwaters a further source of military power for the warmongers!
Shit tyree they already have a huge contract for operations in the US. One of the federal agents raiding medical marijuana clinics in LA was wearing a blackwater t-shirt. I believe they will be deployed to Humboldt County in nor cal this year to raid grow houses and marijuana plantations.
makes one wonder how much of the jobs incentive money will wind up in blackwaters pot!

Johann Hari: Why should I respect these oppressive religions? - http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commenta...
A free society cannot be structured to soothe the hardcore faithful. It is based on a deal. You have an absolute right to voice your beliefs – but the price is that I too have a right to respond as I wish. Neither of us can set aside the rules and demand to be protected from offense.
Yet this idea – at the heart of the Universal Declaration – is being lost. To the right, it thwacks into apologists for religious censorship; to the left, it dissolves in multiculturalism. The hijacking of the UN Special Rapporteur by religious fanatics should jolt us into rescuing the simple, battered idea disintegrating in the middle: the equal, indivisible human right to speak freely.

Save the Economy by Cutting the Defense Budget: Why the Pentagon is Not a Jobs Engine: By Winslow T. Wheeler
- http://www.counterpunch.org/wheeler01272009.html
As the economic news darkens in the United States, the ideas for stimulating new jobs get worse. A sure-fire way to advance deeper into recession is now being spread around: spend even more on the Department of Defense (DoD). Doing that will not generate new jobs effectively and it will perpetuate serious problems in the Pentagon. The newly inaugurated President Barack Obama would be well advised to go in precisely the opposite direction.

Naked Republican Goons 33 1/3: The Final Insult P.M. Carpenter Exclusively on BuzzFlash for Tuesday, January 27 The totality of House GOP swinishness caught everyone off-guard, although it's difficult in retrospect to imagine why. For this is what they've trained and studied for: uniform infantilism, especially whenever the country cries out for mature governance and some -- any -- semblance of bipartisan compromise and cooperation. Each House GOPer had his or her own little militant manual firmly in hand -- their very own prized edition of Mein Dummkampf, penned by the macroeconomically ignorant likes of the party's Rush Limbaughs and dedicated to their stormtrooping baboon-corps of Sean Hannities.
- http://buzzflash.com/articles/carpenter/298
The speculation now is that after Senate Democrats finish doing with the stimulus bill what the GOP resolutely refuses to do with most any bill -- compromise -- then 30 or 40 House Republicans will abandon their party's Soprano-family values and uncharacteristically cast a vote in favor of the nation's general and greater welfare.
