Rove Lies, But That's Not The Point

Normally I might would jump into the fray like everyone else about Tom Brokaw and Karl Rove butting heads this morning, over whether or not the Bush administration had suggested that sharing oil revenue would eventually help pay for the war in Iraq.

Which, of course, the Bush bunch did; and which, of course, Rove said did not because he's a lying fat piece of shit. Sort of like when I myself used to deny ever having put on a dress and make-up, despite Polaroids proving a different truth.

My gripe is more to the point of why this turd is even allowed air time lying about it in the first place, being off the hook when he and the rest of them should be in jail instead. To even be discussing the issue of the cost of the war in Iraq is absurd and implies justification for the U.S. illegal invasion.

But that's just my opinion, and no network's program manager ever once consulted me about their lineups for today. Fatty McGoo got his C&C book plug in anyway, just another one on the sked, and dollars to doughnuts it will end up a bestseller because of it. Vile dat.

I Think

I think I'm bored blogging. I think I'm done with it. I think what's the point? I think you should check out my blogroll instead. I think they say stuff better anyway.

Betty White "needs to start taking her relationship with God serious." Seriously?

I was one of those grassroots Facebook campaigners responsible for Betty White hosting Saturday Night Live the other night, so for that, let me just say: "You're very welcome!" I thought she was fantastic, better even than I had expected she might be, and by most accounts her coming on the show was a huge success. Except for some, who apparently had more eternal concerns weighing on their minds, precluding enjoying it so much. Like Jose, who while conceding that Betty White is legend "in this day and age of rebels and rockers" (I really don't know what that means, but it seems to be a good thing), is more concerned about her afterlife appearance instead, presumably being so old as she is. A legend, sure ... "However, I think Betty really needs to start taking her relationship with God serious. Betty can't please this new generation, she has nothing to prove to them. Her relationship with the Lord is what she needs to take serious." Well, all...

It Could Happen

I was digging deep again, as I do every year or so, into my box of keepsakes and relics that I really don't know why I kept them but did. Stuff I wrote as a kid (some of that, I must say, rather disturbing), old letters of the real life mailed sort, newspaper clippings of miscellany, that have strangely yellowed and gotten brittle already and that shit just ain't right since it seems not so long ago ... whatever, I'm getting old. From the Kansas City Kansan , newspaper that we got delivered daily, Friday, July 25, 1975, I had cut out and kept this one particular article headlined "Youngster completes first novel." I was always writing as a kid, so I remember very well snipping this one item, on account of the twelve-years-old youngster was my same age, and I very much wanted my own novel published. Of course I hadn't written it yet, but I figured this proved I could do it, too, kept it for an affirmation thingy. Over the years I've remembered saving that s...
