What'll you libbies think of next, "I'm a Republican" Ed? chortle It was just too perfect. After listening to Tina Fey's routine the other night, and the thought of Sarah with testicles, all I could think of was "Rocky Horror." (That could be a good label for the past eight years, as a matter of fact.) Several comments here have reinforced it; the righties seem to relish the degree to which she's more of a man rather than a woman. That sure sounds transexual to me... Anyway, I haven't seen it for 30 years to I looked to see if "Sweet Transvestite" was on YouTube. Watching it again was even better than the first time. I nearly fell off my chair picturing the whole thing occurring in the Alaska Governor's Mansion. Of course it's a joke, but I'll tell you this: If I ever get a flat tire while driving by the governor's residence in Alaska, I'm not knocking on the door. -- Ed Huntress |

You've been following closely then. If you saw the dustups yesterday, you see that Schmidt and the rest of Sons of the Swiftie Slimers are in a snit and they're trying to push back on the New York Times. But this time the Times won't be pushed. They caught hell last time for not calling the slimers on their game, but Heller, the Times' chief editor, apparently resolved not to let it happen again. Schmidt is looking for an opening to "define their own reality," as Karl Rove once put it, and he's finding it a lot harder to do this time around. -- Ed Huntress |
