I'm willing to have some of the White House budget go to PBS. I swear they have 2 weeks of fundraisers every other month and I know all I care to about Doo-Wop, Dr. Dyer's hat, Suze Orman's money plans, the 'Tenors of the Moment', and anything connected with Ed Sullivan. Rick Steve I can handle as I so badly wish to live in Europe (or Canada or New Zealand). On top of the pleas for money today's lineup included tag team episodes of Clodagh's and what's her name's Irish cooking shows and I just saw part of an Irish concert that featured highly overweight musicians as well as that roach stampin' step dancing. At least I've missed that bizarre little Jackie Evancho and the countless 'health' specials.

20,000,000 voters tried trimming a Bush, but couldn't pull it off. Seems unfair that Dumbya got to do it.

Best of all, Dok -- you can say <i>retarded</i>. And even <i>trigonometry.</i>

In the larger picture, I agree. The virulence and hysteria of CPAC and the TP are a reaction to the growing awareness that they are a shrinking and losing community, despite their loudness.

Well...clearing brush is a rural kinda thing to do whereas anything 'bama does is "urban", if you get my meaning.

Will the Obamas get their damage deposit back when they move out?

Other GOP audiences? Don't forget, this took place in the <b>Forum on Minority Outreach</b> which presumably had an audience of the least rabid and most open-minded goppers in the joint. Where would this other audience be? Down the hall at the Forum on Reinstating the Poll Tax and Restrictive Covenants?

If you're thinking of the NAACP or DNC, then ok.

“[Obama has] become the very height of unbridled personal excess in his own lifestyle.”

Dennis Koslowski, Richard Scrushy and John Thain disagree with this assertion.

The biggest waste of money will be whatever dough the wingtards spend on aquiring their own copies of this dreck.

Then again, that's less dough available for contributions to teabagger campaigns next election cycle. (I trust that Mr. Groom, like all the other grifters who've discovered that teabaggers as easy marks, will be pocketing his profits.)

I don't suppose there's any mention of what Dumbya spent, in order to delver a plastic turkey to the troops in Baghdad. (They took along TWO 747s, just in case.)

Not to mention <i>In Cold Blood.</i>
