Crap Throwing Monkey

And the head of Alfredo Garcia. And bring me the Beatles White album.

March. Best time, weather-wise.

Really? My cats are scary smart. Even the idiot cat's smarter than about half my family.

Well...to be honest, she doesn't think she's "on par" with Marilyn Monroe, she thinks she's iconic like Monroe was. Personally, I'm more worried by the very slight possibility that she might actually be right. Doesn't say much for society if she's iconic.

Maybe. But only Chevy Chase could deliver "Can I borrow your towel? My car just hit a water buffalo."

Actually, that's a very good point...it's not so much that Bush isn't engaging the current issues diplomatically, as much as Kerry doesn't recognize it as diplomacy because it doesn't fit his definition. Which, by the way, still makes his statement bull sh--, as there's a difference between "bad diplomacy" and "no diplomacy", a difference Kerry clearly didn't recognize. That was pretty much the gist of my complaint. "Use diplomacy" and "destroy Hezbollah"? That's pretty contradictory. Unless you're Joe Stalin (which I don't think Kerry is).

Hell, we just pick ours up off the counter and put them on the floor with a stern "No!" or "Bad girl!" They understand to the point that they know they're allowed up on the kitchen counter unless there's food up there or we have company, and under no circumstances are they allowed to walk over the range top (they jump down and walk around instead). If you properly and consistently set limits for cats, they'll understand and obey even a relatively complex set of rules.

And of course, throwing out random numbers proves an idea is, in fact, half-assed. Don't laugh. It's your theory, poindexter. If you don't have numbers to back it up, you're full of sh--.

It was reducto ad absurdum sarcasm.

To be fair, they don't "dip into" it. They "invest" it. In conservative, low-risk, fixed-income investments. Like Treasury Bonds. Which is why "lock box" was the biggest load of hooey: it basically was Gore saying "We're no longer going to purchase US debt with Social Security funds", which was never going to happen. No one would just allow cash to sit around waiting to be disbursed, not earning any interest. They would have taken the cash out of the "lock box", bought Treasuries, put the T-Bonds back into the "lock box", and bragged about how smart they were for growing Social Security money in perfectly secure investments...even though they weren't doing a damned thing differently than before.

Big damn window...

If it were left-wing propaganda, why is Sesame street a tool of capitalist brainwashing.

And even nicer if Lebanon didn't issue a de facto declaration of war to Israel to begin with. You keep stumbling over that point, didn't you. Guess what? You declare war on a more powerful neighbor, chances are you get your ass kicked...

Nice avatar. Danny Briere?

A UN exec calling Hizb'Allah cowards? Big deal...he's just speaking from a position of expertise...

Another point I wanted to make: Rice was at the G8 meeting when this kicked off. She's supposed to drop everything there and run to Beruit?

Why not? He remembered Rumsfeld had to sneak into Baghdad... ...oh, wait...that actually SERVED his partisan purposes, didn't it?

And miss all that cowbell?

HIZB'ALLAH CROSSED THE BORDER AND KIDNAPPED ISRAELIS!!! But you're right, it's not terrorism...it's an act of war. And it's just shocking that the Israelis accepted the invitation...

"Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will travel to the Middle East to try to resolve the crisis, Bush administration officials said." - NYT, July 18 I looked earlier...but anything more than a week ago, you have to pay for. And since this "surprise" visit was being reported a week ago...well, again, not much of a surprise, is it?

It's your responsibility. "It takes a village" and all...

Take it a step further. Lebanon can stop bombing Israel, and Israel can stop bombing Lebanon.

So Kerry's "diplomatic" answer is: "kill 'em all ourselves"? And how was Rice's "surprise PR sham" a surprise? It's been in the news for a week...

Ed. Ironically.

Uhhh...your audience is preschoolers. If a spoof on teenage abstinence undermines your credibility with three year olds, I'm not sure firing the host is going to fix that...
