From the Boston Globe:
"Called on last week by President Bush at a press conference, Gannon attacked Democratic Senate leaders and called them "divorced from reality." During the presidential campaign, when called on by Press Secretary Scott McClellan, Gannon linked Senator John F. Kerry, Democrat of Massachusetts, to Jane Fonda and questioned why anyone would dispute Bush's National Guard service."
But the White House Press Correspondent doesn't actually exist. The blogosphere did an exhaustive search and found that Jeff Gannon of the "Talon News" (funded by a GOP org) apparently was willed into being just a few years ago. Prior to his shady journalism credentials, he ran a military fetish gay porn site.
And now Louise Slaughter, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Rules, has written a letter to Bush asking for a full investigation.
Because tonight is, as I'm sure you may have noticed, The Big Game.
Ahh, yes, I've been hearing about said Game all day. I'm not a huge b-ball fan, but the games always sounds like fun. I'd like to go to one, bu t there is way too much hassle involved in getting tickets for me to go.
... and the 6:00 and 6:30 groups are no-shows. I coulda gone home an hour ago. I hate these kids some days -- wanting to be somewhere else is one thing, but not cancelling when they decide to do so is a whole other cranky-making ball of wax.
Timelies all!
A friend of mine at dance practice last night was knitting a womb.(It's for a protest)
knitting a womb
Like this one? It seems to be all the rage these days (which is to say, I've seen it referenced in at least two places). But
what on earth is it doing on a piano keyboard???
(Yes, this disturbs me more than the fact that it's a knitted uterus)
Betsy, here's more of that story with saucy pictures.
You know, none of this would have happened if the Bush Administration knew how to use the internets.
Whoo.
What exactly is a two-holiday Christian? If you only show up for Christmas and Easter, why would you brag about it?
Huh. I just tried to edit an LJ entry, and got the following message:
Client error: This journal is temporarily in read-only mode. Try again in a couple minutes.
Anyone else getting this?
I'd like to know how my cats broke a glass and
left it sitting up right where I'd left it.
Kinda freaky.
Honey dijon mustard (heavy on the mustard, light on the honey) chicken with steamed asparagus is a very good dinner. Black cherry koolaid isn't the ideal accompaniment, but it will do.
