If she invented the salads, she's alright with me.

Sorry I questioned her morality. Marrying a gay man and capitalizing on that fact.

You know, She reminds me of a really evil Zsa Zsa Gabor.

Anyone check out pastor Manning and his raving?

OMG - he is a piece of work!

We also seem to ignore hate-spewing Pastor John Hagee....seems if you agree with the particular hate being spewed...it's okay.

John Hagee - from an AP article -

The televangelist, San Antonio megachurch leader John Hagee, has referred to the Roman Catholic Church as "the great whore" and called it a "false cult system" and "the apostate church"; the word "apostate" means someone who has forsaken his religion.
He also has linked Adolf Hitler to the Catholic church, suggesting it helped shape his anti-Semitism.
McCain said he does not agree with some of Hagee's past comments. "It's simply not accurate to say that because someone endorses me that I therefore embrace their views," McCain told reporters at a news conference Monday in Phoenix.
Catholic groups are pressuring McCain to go further and reject the endorsement, which he announced at a news conference with Hagee last week. The Democratic National Committee also is publicizing Hagee's views.
"Indeed, for the past few decades, he has waged an unrelenting war against the Catholic Church," said Catholic League President Bill Donohue.
"Senator Obama has repudiated the endorsement of Louis Farrakhan, another bigot," Donohue said. "McCain should follow suit and retract his embrace of Hagee."

I've also heard, don't know if it's true, that he, like Jerry Falwell, has blamed 9/11 on gays in our society.

IMHO, he's a fruitcake.

Which is why all of them should remember that the U.S. Constitution guarantees us freedom from religion in our government. So let's get all the preachers and pastors and ministers and priests and rabbis and imans and whatever else out of the political discussion!

Enough already!

No, that's Peyton. And Eli is the Manning for the NY giants. Maybe Archie or the other son, Cooper?

Football is a religion.

So are enviromental issues to some large Irish Catholic families living in Massachusetts.

There once was a senator who sailed Nantucket
Who bailed his bilge with a bucket.
When his diesel was found
floating on top the Sound.
He told the media to suck it.

I like BO's comments about teen pregnancies.

I think he's WRIGHT about that.

The person tha comes out AFTER BO makes a stupid comment should be president. It seems that he always needs to have his comments explained, lest he be "MISQUOTED".

You have missed your calling Richard. You should be on the Editorial Page of newspapers far and wide with your witty (and true) poetry. Very well done!

Wonder why this was not on any of the news programs I have heard so far today.......

Doll,

Do you know how many years that limerick has simmered in the back of my brain? I laughed when I heard the story and as I lay in bed it came to me.
Don't thank me.....I just write.
