Yeah, well

Defend Goldstein all you want, but I tell you truly there are very few critics out there I personally wouldn't love to pound into the approximate consistency of silly putty. Fsck 'em and the horse they rode in on.

As an actor since I was a wee Doc, I say good for Schneider. If anybody actually takes his "threats of violence" seriously, they need to investigate decaff. Be damned with nose in the air, Mount Olympus critics.

I'm going to bed now. Ni ni.

In my best Ricky Ricardo voice, I say

Bushie, you got some 'splainin' to do!

"In light of the mounting evidence that your Administration has, on several occasions, paid members of the media to advocate in favor of Administration policies, I feel compelled to ask you to address a matter brought to my attention by the Niagara Falls Reporter (article attached), a local newspaper in my district, regarding James "JD" Guckert (AKA Jeff Gannon) of Talon News.

According to several credible reports, "Mr. Gannon" has been repeatedly credentialed as a member of the White House press corps by your office and has been regularly called upon in White House press briefings by your Press Secretary Scott McClellan, despite the fact evidence shows that "Mr. Gannon" is a Republican political operative, uses a false name, has phony or questionable journalistic credentials, is known for plagiarizing much of the "news" he reports, and according to several web reports, may have ties to the promotion of the prostitution of military personnel."

So, apparently, does Representative F. James Sensenbrenner.

"Among other provisions, the bill put forth by Rep. F. James Sensenbrenner would give the Homeland Security Secretary “the authority to waive… all laws such Secretary, in such Secretary’s sole discretion, determines necessary to ensure expeditious construction of the barriers and roads under this section.”

The bill also seeks to strip courts from being able to challenge any of the Secretary’s decisions.

“Notwithstanding any other provision of law… no court shall have jurisdiction,” the Republican bill asserts.

The immigration bill would allow Homeland Security to construct barriers along American borders and inside the United States. It would also give the Secretary the authority to ignore labor and environmental laws, as well as refuse compensation for property seized in the construction of such barriers.

The bill also denies immigrants habeas corpus rights and makes it harder for immigrants to achieve asylum. Senior aides in the House expect the bill to pass without significant amendments Thursday.

Democrats find these provisions troubling."

I find those provisions absolutely repulsive, and I plan to be on the phone, email and everything short of smoke signals to my representative to make sure this piece of human filth calling himself a representative knows just how badly he's screwed up.

So what's next - concentration camps? Funny little armbands? Why don't they just cut to the damn chase and place a bulk order for brown shirts and be done with it?
