C’mon, lady. Dyslexic Mexican kindergartners can do better than that. If you’re hell-bent on playing the “Master Race” card in order to get rid of your underpaid and over-exploited gardener along with your anny and the cheap veggies at the supermarket, could you at least do so without embarrasing yourself so badly?

What? Never worked for you?

I tip my hat to whoever came up with that; completely excellent advertising.

Or at least my 19" HP LCD monitor. Scary as hell, just sitting there, and suddenly the thing starts blowing smoke and stinking up the joint with the wonderful smell of melting circuit boards. If I hadn't been on hand to yank out the power cord I'm not sure what would have happened. Apparently this…

I guess I’m biased. I mean, I love kids and hate Disney, so this one was a bit of a no-brainer. But really; banning kids from a restaurant… at a Disney resort?!?

They’re like the ugly stepchildren of “real” business, the kids…

“Who are you going to believe? Me, or your lying eyes?” It’s all about truthiness, isn’t it? Inspired by this, and harping on this. Is it too much to ask the Republicans to run a candidate that isn’t a lying hypocrite for a change? Oh, I see… sorry. (For those of you who prefer “facts”…

So, Senator Palpatine from CT surprises exactly nobody and endorses McCain for president. All the usual suspects immediately rip him a new one . The big question is: will Harry Reid finally grow a pair and kick Joe off his cushy committees, or will we have to wait until 2008 to see Joe finally turn…

Ah, keeping us safe again. After stopping the Canadian firefighters and the Al Queda operatives disguising themselves as heart attack victims, Joe Lieberman’s protege Chertoff is at it again. He’s realized what’s been eluding all the brains over at Homeland Security since 9/11: what’s jeopardizing our safety is not so much the fact that we’ve…
