I Blame Roger Ebert

Roger Ebert shared this photo as being in need of a caption. His: What, and leave show business?
Of course, such a fabulous photo causes the mind to race. Mine: I know it's only been a week, but is there anything you miss about your former job? Not really...

Anthony's Weiner, Newt's Balls and Sarah's...Uh...Whatever!

Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) may sit on my side of the aisle in Congress, but he's a fool. All the psychologizing has been offered: he's self-destructive, he's self-hating, he's misogynistic, he's power-mad, he's, he's, he's. Fine. To me, he's an arrogant fool. Go home. Stop plaguing my party. Grow up! But don't expect me to wait around for you to do so. You blew it, pal!
Like Ron White testified out of his own experience, "You can't fix stupid."
As with Newt Gingrich. Newt apparently decided that the statue of limitations had passed on notifying wife #1 of his divorce filing in the midst of her cancer treatment, and wife #2 in the aftermath of an ALS diagnosis. And when asked the inevitable questions, he proclaimed his love and constancy for Mrs. Gingrich #3, apparently still healthy, as proof he's gotten his act together. Then the enormous Tiffany's debt reared its ugly head. Not exactly living up to the Family Values bullshit, Newty! Sit down and shut up, please!
This week has also marked the return of Sarah Palin, and her endlessly arrogant stupidity, to the campaign trail. After the spectacular Paul Revere f-up, available on video all over the internet, she decided on the same Big Lie strategy that Weiner, Gingrich, Arnold, et al, have pursued. She announced that she didn't mess it up! Hey, go for it, pal.
If the people of this country decide to go as stupid as many of those in leadership positions often do, then we really will have the government we deserve!
