Zell Miller is on the move again, he's backing Ralph Reed's bid for Lt. Governor in Georgia. Zell won't announce his Repuglican affiliation, because that will rule out his chances to get his mug on TV and make them all but nil. Given he's the most uninteresting, southern has-been this nation has ever seen, no one really actually cares anymore what Zell has to say. He's just another washed up dish rag who claims to be a Democrat, and we're all on to his Benedict Arnold shenanigans!

Obviously Dennis Miller is finding out his brand of “humor” is no longer interesting! Too bad for Dennis, his usefulness to the “Party” was over as soon as they discovered touchscreen voting takes care of everything, and why pay a has-been comedian to continue telling his outdated jokes?!

If history isn't what you want it to be, and if we aren't all dead, then just rewrite it to suit your purpose! That's the current strategy used by George Bush when telling a different story than what actually happened at the end of WWII! The only truth that came out of this current debacle is that George Bush really doesn't read books, least of all history books! The man is a moron and he's succeeding in making us all look like morons.

In seeing the pictures of Bush and Saudi Prince Abdullah during the Prince's recent visit to the “ranch” in Crawford, I am reminded that some men will do anything for money! But as we've found out, sometimes kisses and holding hands doesn't do a thing for lowering gas prices, unless of course that was the original intent!

Another Repuglican, another “troubled marriage!” When are these people going to realize it takes more than talk to value their family? Everywhere you look, members of the Repuglican party and the Bush administration in general have had difficulties of one kind or another due to sexual misconduct. Sooner or later the self-righteous among the more pious will have to wake up to the fact that talking about sexual perversion doesn't make those urges go away! Sooner or later, even they will have to recognize that not all members of their leadership wear halos and some actually prefer whips, chains, swingers and mules!

One TERROR ALERT that may backfire! Did the ALERT reveal more than Karl intended? Were Bush's activities more the story of the day than TERROR? Was anyone relieved to know the president was not at risk because he was riding a bicycle in an undisclosed location, while the rest of Washington was needlessly running for their lives?

As I listened to the over bloated reporting today about the “small plane” that entered restricted air space over our nation's capital and heard about the rapid response time of the fighter jets from Andrews Air Force Base---my mind wandered back to September 11, 2001 and I wondered where were those jets on that infamous tragic day? Why wasn't the protection for our nation's citizens as acute then as it is now for the moron who was out riding a bike in the middle of a Wednesday workday? My heart continues to ache for the families who lost loved ones on that most terrible day in history. My mind continues to wonder how in God's name could this administration ignore a PDB that said “Osama determined to attack within the U.S.” one month and five days before the actual attack?  How in God's name can these people, these people who ignored that briefing, sleep at night?
