Oh Lord, please grant me the strength to pretend to give a shit about what a bunch of people from the elite, nattering class – for whom I have no respect – have to say on Sunday morning shows which I never watch.
For instance, on Press the Meat, Gilligan Gregory has Dan Balz, a hack who joined the Washington Post in 1978 when I was a senior in high school. No Dan Froomkin, but a schmuck like Balz gets to retire there. Ironic, aint it, that even with Balz, the paper that broke Watergate has long since lost its balls. Also on is Balz’s bud Haynes Johnson, DLC chair Harold “where’re the white women” Ford Jr., and former Congressman, former CFL player, and one of that rare, odd breed known as “black Republican,” JC Watts of god’s country, Oklahoma. Oh, and Larry Summers is on, too.
More people I don’t give a shit about over at Faze the Nation, as Larry Summers humps his way over to CBS, along with Larry Summers, former reorter Bob Woodward, the always repugnant David Brooks, and syndicated columnist Kathleen Parker, who is at least not too bad to look at.
But wait, there’s more! At Fux News Sunday, Charlie Rangel splits a segment with that traitor from South Carolina who wants our country to fail, Jim DeMint, then the chairman of the House GOP caucus, Mike Pence, gets a full segment before Weaselface Wallace trots out the usual fuxheads.
On the Goebbels network, George Snufalufagus has Timothy Geithner and former Chippendale dancer, Alan Greenspan. But the real fun comes at the roundtable with batshit crazy (and basically just plain dumb) Michelle Malkin, Cynthia Tucker of the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Bloomberg’s Al Hunt and the Wall Street Journal’s Jerry Seib. Woo-hoo!
Over at CNN, Fareed Zakaria winder is a new president will help stop the deadly downward spiral in Afghanistan? Fareed talks with the two men who have the best shot at unseating Hamid Karzai in this month’s Afghan elections. Plus, is the U.S. government interfering in Iran? Spying? Supporting the opposition? Sending in radio and tv messages? I’d be shocked (shocked!) if that was the case. How ’bout you?
Have a good Sunday, y’all.
The web host is updating the server over the next couple of days. Shouldn’t be a problem, though they say:
Thank god I’m not using Ruby on Rails!
Hawks, bobcats, barbecues: It’s not easy being a chicken in Stamford
Some balance to all that pro-hawk stuff we usually see around here.
Meanwhile Craig(slist) Newmark remains smitten with the birds.
My main memory of that neighborhood was of Wild :turkey: and a beakless chicken that fell off of a truck. .
Billy Lee Riley, RIP
Nice to see Melina!
And, Lincoln speaks up for the hawks and a couple of bugs.
I have no idea why anyone would put Michelle Malkin on the air unless it is to show the very poor state of American education.
The right wing rag, AKA the NY Post, has an editorial decrying the birther nonsense. But, it is the NY Post and so it couldn’t help but end with an untrue accusation that the whole thing started with Hillary.

Watching something about Hitler while reading this about exploding iPods. Talk about synchronicity.
