The reason liberals are in denial about hating the Constitution is because none of the Constitution-violating programs they favor are in any danger of being thrown out by the federal courts. If the Second, Ninth, and Tenth Amendments were as fully applied to federal law as the First Amendment, affirmative action, anti-monopoly legislation, gun control, the Endangered Species Act, and all federal welfare would be GONE. Our federal budget would be about twenty percent of its present value. They would riot until doomsday if the SCotUS started enforcing the whole Constitution.

Congratulations, Mary Katherine!
Olberman's "worst person," based on his simplistic reading of a completely legitimate point she made about former President Bill Clinton's relationship with the mainstream media, back in the 1990s.
One of my readers has suggested that female beauty makes a lot of males into intellectual basket-cases; I can certainly see why this might be the case with MKH—one of the loveliest and most talented women I've ever met.
Good work, Keith! And congrats again, Mary Katherine.
Who looks worst in this picture? Not Mary Katherine! I believe it's okay of Fausta, and marginal of MKH—but I feel I'm the "worst" one here. Paging Keith Olbermann!
Oh, Yeah.
Album art, writ large. And, I mean: large.
I've always felt sorry for my nieces and nephews, what with those itty bitty CD jewel cases . . . where's the art in that?
They are deprived. That's what it is: deprived. I shall make it up to them with alcohol, weed, pron, birth control (if they are certain they might need it), and lashings of classic rock and rolll from the 50s/60s/70s/80s. Also: alibis, trips to art galleries, work references, Los Angeles-based couch-surfing on my side of the study ("get up before your uncle starts tapping away . . . please,) in case of SoCal college/work interviews, great cheap recipes for college/early 20s dishes, and assistance in burying any bodies (or finishing off ones that were inexpertly dispatched.).
H/t: Beth of MVRWC who has, as I understand it, morals. So this post is my own responsibility. Scary, scary!
No; we never did see eye-to-eye on Fred. But when Ace is good, he's very good. He sums up the Westboro Baptist Church:
Hmm... Marines, soldiers, Hollywood prettyboys... the Westboro Cult seems drawn to male beauty like a moth to a flame.
A flaming flame. A flamboyantly flaming flame which is en fuego.
Yup. I'm not one of those people who thinks every person out there who has reservations about homosexuality is a closet case. But the Westboro Baptists seem to harbor a lot of passion.

Three Years Later . . .
and I still get hits from Jeff P's post doubting my assertion that women do not, as a rule, lovingly soap their breasts in the shower.
It's so tough for men to come to terms with these things . . . especially gay men.
Dang, I miss Jeff. Next time I'm in the Bay Area I'm going to tie him down and . . . lather up.

That's what you get for sending a woman to do a man's job...

Oh, you would do that for Jeff, but not us hetero men?
What a shame. What a waste...

Hetro men (He-men) know that real women let 2-5 of their hot female friends lovingly soap their breasts in their frequent communal shower get-togethers.

Super-Teen Extraordinaire!Freakazoid! will soon be out on DVD! Apparently, there will be real-time commentary by John P. McCann,Paul Rugg, and Tom Ruegger on the final product.
Here's a taste:
The highlight of this compilation is the scene wherein Steven Spielberg is talking to Freakazoid's writers and producers about a script. They are arguing that they should just "end the episode early, and show more Animaniacs." If you look closely, the writers/producers shown are cartoons of the actual people, including cool gal-around-town Jean MacCurdy and the infamously hard-to-caricature Paul Rugg.
Though my favorite is the episode wherein the day is saved by Paul Rugg and John P. McCann's real-life assistant, Greg—perfectly animated, of course. Unfortunately, that isn't on this particular digest, so I'll have to go get the DVD when it comes out.
Via Write Enough, who promises more details soon from the actual taping.

Little Miss Attila: "I don't like 'FatMan.'"
John P. McCann: "It was just job insurance for [the actor who played 'FatMan.']"
Little Miss Attila: "Don't care. It was offensive. Wait . . . it was really so-and-so?"
John P. McCann: "The very same."
Little Miss Attila: "And he got paid?"
John P. McCann: "Of course."
Little Miss Attila: "Well . . . then, it must be all right."

The Dancer and the Dance . . .
So, which is it? Are the kinds of people who are attracted to careers in the mainstream media more criminal to begin with, or is it that they become inured to deviant behavior from rubbing elbows with other producers and reporters?
An elected official charged with falsely claiming he earned the military's highest honor has filed a motion to dismiss the federal case against him on free speech grounds.
The motion argues that the Stolen Valor Act of 2005, under which water board member Xavier Alvarez was charged, is incompatible with the First Amendment because it restricts free speech by criminalizing false claims of military honors.
And, Now . . .
Iowahawk, Treacher and a few others have started a new blog.
No politics. As I understand it, they are sticking with breasts, boobs, and mammary glands. Oh, and—hot cars, cool guns, bitchin' tatts, premium whiskey, cigars. You know: the "rogue gentleman" niche. I should resent it, being a big fan of cigars, guns, tatts and cars myself—but it's not like the guys ever complain when I crash their parties.
They're calling the site bolus, which I kind of like: my recollection from high school physiology class is that the word refers both to a bite of food and a single [presumably theeoretical] unit of shit in the lower intestines.

The Word from Val . . .
whose Republican relatives&mostly in Wyoming—do not appear to be representative:
Will the Republican establishment repudiate the content published in [the Ron Paul] newsletters? How about the other Republican candidates? Shades of Strom Thurmond and Trent Lott. David Gergen, the only critic named in this story, is hardly representative of the party. We all know a large minority and probably even a majority of Republicans happen to share these very same views. I know this from personal experience. Most of my family back in Wyoming are Republicans and they refer to African- Americans as "porch monkeys" and yes, they employ the dreaded N-word liberally (juxtaposition intended).
I remember seeing some of my family members in blackface as part of the cast in minstrel shows held in the Cody school auditorium in the late 60s, and I know they continued to hold them well into the 70s. To this day Cody folk brag about how few black people there are in the state.
Furthermore its accepted political science that the Democratic party "lost" the white vote in the South when the Kennedy & Johnson administrations passed the landmark civil rights laws of the 60s. White Southerners have voted Republican almost without exception ever since. Ronald Reagan based his campaigns in large part on thinly veiled racism and every Republican has many Republicans have copied the tactic ever since.
Therefore: How are the views in question so out of step with the Republican Party? Joy, I have no reason to believe you personally agree with them as I have no reason to believe Paul is a racist—maybe a lousy editor—but I do believe the Republican party is generally a racist party. It is also generally homophobic and sexist, with very strong theocratic tendencies.
Some people make the comparison that the Dems are the "mommy" party and the Republicans are the "daddy" party. If that's the case I submit this particular daddy is abusive, and the electorate needs to have him arrested and thrown in the hoosegow.
Yeah. I had a few responses to that. What are yours?

Last-Minute Gift Ideas
Yeah, I know. I'm linking 'em a bit late for Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year's. But they're still useful for Kwanzaa—not to mention your friends who had the temerity to be born in the first week of January!

Don't forget those high-denomination gift cards. Unactivated, of course. Imagine the looks on their little faces when they receive them. Imagine the looks when they go to use them! Hint: Practice throwing a fit in advance, so that you can be ready when they tell you that the store wouldn't accept them. And remind them it truly is the thought that counts.
