And wasn't John McCain staying in a Hilton in Hanoi? I have stayed in Hilton Hotels. There is nothing wrong with a Hilton.

Oh right. And don't tell me John McCain didn't leave Hanoi with a Heroin Monkey the size of King Kong on his mycoplasma invaded neck. I watched his speech and got a fucking 'contact' buzz.

I saw the three days of the RNC of the GOP from up here and Canada. I was amazed that they cancelled the first day over nothing in that storm. You know, in Canada here, when we get drenched by 95 degree fahreinheit water we celebrate and call it a VACATION. So I naturally list into conspiracy theories. Like, Why did they displace 2 million New Orleaneans for nothing? Why did they say that only 1.5 million would be going back? Where are the 1.5 million refugees now, and where are they going? Is riding the rails an option? Why did a little rain blow out the power system of Louisiana? (My grandmother's name was Louise) Is hi-speed really that expensive down there? Why won't those TVs work in 2009 after February? What will those poor people with shitty TVs and no cable be missing? Is death an option to being cut off from TV?

Obviously Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac conventions in Denver and Minneapolis were staged events. And wasn't that single girl from Alaska who got pregnant looking sad on the stage the first night? She looked genuinely pissed about the whole thing and why did her mother put her through that? Isn't that Mitt Romney a handsome man? Who really knocked up Jamie Spears? Really?

Anyway, Led Zeppelin, When the levee breaks, best song ever:

perhaps the only thing missing from the "RNC-in-a-minute" is a rapid edit of all the 40+ pained smiles McCain offered. each seemed to say, 'oh good they appear to be buying that one.' ah, and perhaps a string of the epileptic forward shoulder rolls that are right out of the Bush Book of Body "Expression". (or has Cindy has been Botoxing his rotator cuffs?)

but all joking aside -- I just discovered your site. thank you for the excellent comic relief. it helps me keep my desire to field dress the PTA president under control.
