Over the weekend Spudlette learned to wave so now she can send you off, if she so chooses, with an outstretched arm and a closing of her fingers!

Jesus-loving superspy Rick Warren will deliver a prayer at Obama's inauguration. Now I realize 'love thy neighbor' and all that crap (though I'm not sure Warren knows it), but when people are rewarded immediately after being a total douchebag, even if the two events are unrelated, the douche in question has very little motivation to be less douchey in the future. I wonder if the powdered wigs will drool as much concern onto Obama's disturbing relationship with this advocate of assassinations as they did on scary negro Jeremiah Wright. Probably they will, because the best place to learn information and not be fooled is TV news.

Turns out, no one will stop you from being a fucker. Hooray free will! So then, if you ever realize that you are a fucker, you can take full credit for it and not have to complain that someone else was interfering with your ability to to be, as I say, a complete fucker. That fuckeriness? It's all yours! Or douchebag... both are admirable!

The perils and possibilities of pragmatism, and how the powdered wise men of DC misuse the term..

Here is a concise history of how the American economy collapsed. The even shorter version: conservative mythology about magical markets not needing regulation is false.

In Spudlette news, she woke up a couple of nights ago, but put herself back to sleep. Hooray! Also, avocado gives her the slippery poops. Spudlette, if you are reading this in the distant future, enjoy the embarrassment!

So it turns out the purpose driving Rick Warren's life is to totally 'take out' the bad guys. What is it with cowardly middle-aged adolescent douchebags prancing about using dime-store spy novel phrases? Are Hannity and Warren trying to convince me they are cool? If Hannity were an actual tough guy type, he probably wouldn't wear silk suits and make-up for his job. He should take a tip from his friend Rick, who 'takes out' all kinds of evil-doers by being a millionaire religion-personality in California. Here's how it 'goes down':
A tall President dressed in a flight suit grabs the hotline and raises it to his square jaw. "Take him out". Silhouettes scurry around the 'ops' room. Then, a handsome man in a tuxedo makes a quip and fires a single shot from his specified handgun. The sweating bad guy falls over, and you totally see the tuxedo man get to second base in his getaway hovercraft. A double d-cup floozy with an open shirt but also glasses bursts into the Oval Office and longingly gasps, "We saved freedom again!" The President is grim and confident. "But for how long," he muses because he is so determined and powerful and an island.
Or it could be how we 'took out' Sadam Hussein. That continues to be great, too.

Fun fact! Sometimes, I mask my ignorance with big words delivered quickly. Nobody else does that, right?

I hereby command everyone within my influence to read this article by an Air Force interrogator who found Zarqawi by ignoring the shrill voices in America demanding we torture people.

In a related story, I have come to realize that movies and TV have been lying to me. There are no darkly-robed villains with long mustaches rubbing their hands together and plotting the destruction of the world. Turns out everyone, especially the 'evil-doers', thinks they are good and what they do is right. Hitler considered himself a patriot. The other thing TV lied to me about was that nothing should change, but that is perhaps a different, longer story.

Here's a very short list of things I like a lot, but forgot about: Ham and cheese sandwiches (thanks, Thanksgiving, for pushing la familia away from turkey lunch meat this week!) and Popeye (thanks HBO, but seriously, how many chances do I need to see 27 Dresses? The answer is zero).

To refute all I've been complaining about the pampered media divas who pretend to be journalists, I provide a recent quote from not-at-all powdered fop Bob Woodward, "My assessment -- without having any knowledge, really..." Read the article and find him confusing the 'news media' with 'the world'. That about says it.
