Another Seriously Awesome Chick

And I don't mean Rachel Maddow. Although, I love her, too.

She's My Girl!

Am I all alone in my obsession with Chelsea Handler's show?

A Few Words on Politics



Some of my friends and readers have commented on my relative lack of political commentary during this very exciting political season. So, I thought I’d throw together a few words on the topic …

A roll of the dice, lipstick on a pitbull and then on a pig, phone calls at three am, a hurricane in New Orleans on the eve of the Republican convention, a lovely flute solo, the National Press Club getting a lecture on the mannerisms of white people when they play in marching bands, seven houses, moose burgers, mooses in general, fishes who love offshore oil rigs, Stephen Colbert gets 2% in North Carolina on an anit-bear platform, a congressional inquiry into non-American attitudes, a $400 haircut, a $150K shopping spree, McCain saying “cunt” again, Anderson Cooper-Vanderbilt's expose on the public-school non-madrasah in Jakarta, sex education for Kindergartners, Paris's energy policy, the Tuzla tarmac, a sick grandma in Hawaii, Socialism, Chuck Norris, debates ad infinitum, debate bingo, GodDAAAAM America!, New Hampshire polling, the state of Alaska, Scranton, the Real Virginia, “9-11, 9-11, 9-11!” (to quote a NYC drag queen), bitter folks clinging to God and guns, lizard-tongue faces, Miss Alaska 1984's second runner-up meeting Henry Kissinger, si se pueda!, America’s "first black president" as a racist, SNL’s higest ratings in 14 years, a Broadcast Journalism degree from the University of Idaho, the New Yorker as edgy, being ready on Day One, a VP candidate who doesn’t know what a VP does, Colin Powell seeming like a good person, the dude from the Weather Underground is apparently an important education advocate in Chicago (who knew?), Joe the Plumber isn't a plumber, Tim Russert is dead, Hillary had, like, a fiesta with a bunch of Puerto Ricans in Puerto Rico, and a black man named Barack Hussein Obama is poised to win the US presidency in a landslide.

I mean, honestly. Ann Coulter can’t get attention right now. Why would I try?
