Hi ya'll. ANother day in the heart of rebublicanism.
We had to drive downtown this morningm and as we were driving by a building, I casually pointed out a building I knew to be a jail to my passenger, knowing it did not look like one. As we drove by the front doors, we noticed a bunch of evacuees sitting outside. It was obvious they were evacuees by their appearance and the way they were hanging around outside a jail on a week day.
We could'nt believe it, but just now reading the news I ran across this very article...Rita Evacuees Can't Believe They're Being Housed In Jail
What has this country come to, when we are allowed to house our own traumitized citizens to sit in a fracking jail house? What the fuck?

She replied that it's because the dems were the only ones that would be found guilty. How the hell can anyone take her seriously?

The first time I heard Mellencamp he was still going by Johnny Cougar.
Where did I hear him?
He was playing his songs on this strange talk show on Nickelodean in its nascent days. It was hosted by this sort of albino guy with white hair who was "famous" for doing sound effects.
And there was a long hair freaky guy in the "audience" who went by the name "Mouse."

Sandy--only reason I mind the heat is because I've got a UTI, and that is making me uncomfortable, not to mention, warm.

Mellencamp?
I rather like his version of Woody Guthrie's "If you ain't got that do re mi."
Also like Little Pink Houses and Smalltown. Oh hell, I like 'em all.

Coulter was reduced to ranting "Hillary! Hillary! Hillary! had fund raisers in Los Angeles and no one indicted her!! Hillary!"
It was pathetic.

Blair too is in deep foolish shit:
Don't mention the war
Delegate, 82, manhandled from Labour conference for a single word of criticism to Jack Straw on the issue that the Government refuse to discuss in Brighton
The Labour Party was forced to make a humiliating apology to an 82-year-old party member last night after he was thrown out of the conference for heckling Jack Straw.
Walter Wolfgang, a party member for 57 years, was bundled out of the conference hall by stewards after shouting "nonsense" as Mr Straw, the Foreign Secretary, defended Britain's role in Iraq. He was later stopped under anti-terrorist powers as he tried to re-enter the hall.
The heavy-handed treatment of Mr Wolfgang revived criticism of the " control freakery" associated with New Labour and even drew comparisons with the way the Communist leaders in Russia and China stifled dissent.
Mr Wolfgang fled Nazi Germany as a teenager for the freedom of Britain. He said: "I shouted out 'nonsense'. That's all I said. Then these two toughies came round and wanted to manhandle me out. 'I said: 'Do you want me to leave? I will leave, you don't need to manhandle me.'
"Physically, I am not too well, so I said I would follow them."
In what Tony Blair's anti-war critics have called the "don't mention the war" conference, the party avoided a separate debate and vote on Iraq and the Prime Minister made only a short reference to the issue in his keynote speech. Mr Blair also blocked a motion for the conference to pay tribute to Robin Cook, the cabinet minister who resigned over the war and died in August. Yesterday's protest was muted by Labour's standards, but the over-reaction by conference stewards backfired and turned into a public relations disaster for the party.
Steve Forrest, the chairman of the Erith and Thamesmead Labour Party, was also ejected for protesting at Mr Wolfgang's treatment. Angry delegates demonstrated at the removal of the two men as Mr Straw made an unapologetic defence of British policy in Iraq.
Mr Wolfgang, a prominent member of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, said: "Most of the Labour Party stewards are very nice people. One or two people lend themselves to this nonsense. It makes me feel that the people who resort to these tactics are very unsure of themselves and they are on the losing side."

Listened to that en route to the bizarre Vermont history job where in order to teach British Empire I would have to do so wearing a Mountie hat. Now me, I like hats. But that was just strange. Mellencamp somehow made it feel better - not sane particularly, but better.

Favorite John Mellencamp song?

As Paul Westerberg of the Replacements
put it, if Mellencamp had made all
his albums on a small, cool indie
label he'd be considered the most
amazing singer/songwriter/rocker
ever.
Sorry, guy, the cat's great.
Oh, and if you need a killer song,
try "Again Tonight."

Larry King is a senile old republican cock-gobbler. He may not like anne coulter, but he'd eat her nasty pussy for a pat on the head from someone more powerful than he.

He'd marry her if there was enough money in it!

there is a lot of truth to that. the only time i ever considered joining an army was about 20 years ago when i looked into joining the french foreign legion. i wasn't depressed or anything like that. i was just bored to death.

Late for the Delay is Toast discussion, too.
But I noticed last week (or was it before?) when Delay cancelled the House investigation into Katrina, and it got "un-cancelled," that he'd obviously lost a lot of clout.
No surprise that this will do him in. The greater the testimonials to his innocence by the GOP, the more certain his political end.

"L.A. is suffering from a Santa Ana. Hot and dry."
Too bad it's not raining. I always liked it when I lived out there when it would rain even an inch or two and the local news would start up their STORM CENTER '99 or STORM TRACKER '01
I've never been so cold indoors as I was in LA when it was about 55 degrees and raining. Good sushi though.
