Waterboy Goes to the UN

Posted by: Gail Allen | Comments (3)

It was perfect timing because I turned up the volume just as he was describing how the UN still smelled like sulphur after Bush addressed the General Assembly yesterday, right before he called Bush “The Devil”. (Ah, but the bigger question would be, Does he wear Prada??) That’s classic. I couldn’t help but laugh and think of Kathy Bates in The Waterboy.

Hey M.A.C.–Check out my lips!!

Posted by: Gail Allen | Comments (2)

His poignant examples using references everyone can relate to, such as “the family in the classic Senegalese film, ‘Le Mandat’…” really helped to drive his message home. Who knew Senegal had a film industry, much less classic films? But, I digress…... Read More→

I love it. Georgia Democrat Senator Steen Miles wanted to honor Fonda her “charitable work” and the measure was defeated 38-1 yesterday. Turns out, Miles wasn’t even the 1 to cast the vote in favor… Does that make her For the resolution before she was Against it? heh….  Read More →

Okay, so we all expect Chuck Schumer to be out there yapping away in front of the cameras, sneaking legislation into completely unrelated bills (Bring back line item veto, bring back line item veto). But Pete King? What is he doing? In case you’re one of the many who are on the fence or are trying to decide what you really think about this whole Dubai Ports thing, think about this: “Conservative” Congressman, Pete King is not only in the middle of playing “Who’s the... Read More→
