A dozen days left of BushLite's presidency: What no roses?

*

Well now we're looking at Congress' typically twisted way of showing bipartisanship... Republicans acting like democrats and democrats acting like republicans. Which by the way gets us no further along on the road to agreement or unity at all.
The question is not who's on what side; it's who's going to work with Obama.
Please make Reid stop talking before he thinks things through, actually let that be a model for them all.

Reid's still holding out on seating Burris on a technicality about a signature on his paperwork. Though everyone has pretty much stated directly or indirectly at this point that he will be seated.
I'm still thinking that Blago isn't going to jail after all the dust clears... unless there's more we haven't heard yet, because I think they jumped the gun this time. We'll see eh? They probably will remove him from office though if they can manage to.
Reid needs to stop talking. I expect the republicans to express skepticism about Obama but Reid says he's not going to simply go along with Obama... blah, blah, blah, stop talking... Jeeze Reid, Obama's not even president yet.

So Reid defends his position against Burris on his incredible principles (fear of the spread of "taint") but gives a speech that praises Ted Stevens for his indictment on seven federal counts of years of service.


And it's interesting that Sarah Palin is on the whine again about the unfair treatment of her and her family by the liberal leaning press. And how Caroline Kennedy is getting a free ride from the media... now surely you jest Ms Gov Palin? The press is happily crucifying Caroline. She isn't getting any free ride. Her pedigree has been picked at, her experience criticized, even her speech has been mimicked by commentators, pundits and (golly gee) late night talk hosts.
You know, someone, um, called her diction "valley girl" style, like you know, um... yea.

Then again, Palin wouldn't know a cause to be sympathetic if it jumped up and bit her in the ass 'cause, she's being that the only one criticized that is out there and so it seems to make her crazy, you betcha.

I still can't get the image of a giant Putin rearing his head over the Alaskan tundra. AAAaarrrgggghhhhh!!!
::sigh::
So hard to take anything seriously at a very important time that everything should be taken seriously.

Wow, five presidents in one Oval Office, and lightning didn't strike!!!
Two George Bushes, one Clinton and a Carter, standing with president elect Barack Obama.

Truly amazing but me being me, of course I couldn't stop thinking about the Saturday Night Live cartoon spoofs "The X Presidents." Always dependably tasteless and crass but nevertheless oddly funny. Did you remember that the SNL cartoon "The Ambiguously Gay Duo" was voiced by Steve Carell and Steve Colbert? You can see one of the cartoons here but remember I said it was funny tasteless... The X-Presidents

G'night,
Sleep well,
