It's a Mad, Mad, Mad World

First, there is PETA. Not that they've been beacons of intellect (with Pam Anderson as your spokesperson, the bar is pretty low), but this is down right diagnoseable. PETA has requested that Ben & Jerry's ice cream start using human milk. No, I'm not making that up.

Next is the fashion trend of being homosexual. Yes, it's cheaper than the new Prada bag, and far more forward thinking. Newsflash to no one, Clay Aiken has announced he is gay. And fresh from the "Someone Please Save the Young Girls In Holywood" file, Lindsey Lohan says she is dating Samantha Ronson. Although, she's not exactly sure how long she's been dating her, it's been "a very long time." I wonder how long that is in real people years?

Jesus come quickly.

A Chuckle for the Campaign Season

As Nan-A-Thon said, "I don't care who you are, that's funny right there."

Strength and Grace

This is what they really look like.

SNL's Palin

They've done better work. But there are a few funny moments.

ABC Edits and Chevy and Matt are Disgusted

It seems that ABC edited a decent chunk of Charlie Gibson's interview with Sarah Palin.

Bottom line is that ABC did its best to characterize Palin as not ready for the job of VP and as a Christian Whack Job. If you saw the interviews, you know they didn't succeed among thoughtful and fair minded folk. There were some semi-awkward moments, which now make more sense when you realize they were edited to cause viewers to give pause to thoughts of Palin as VP.

The gist of it is here.

The full transcript is here.


Indicating their utter cluelessness to the lives that most Americans live, Chevy Chase and his wife add their $.02 to the Palin discussion while plugging their "charity" (The Center for Environmental Education, of the "famous" Green School Network) here (Note the arrogance):



I saved my favorite for last. Matt Damon is so stunned by Palin's appeal, that he can barely contain his digust. It's obvious he thinks anoyone who is pro Palin is an idiot. Inititally, he looks like someone killed his dog, then later, like he wants to spit.

But Seriously...

You gotta love a woman who dresses like this

And this

And the Ugliness begins

Well, on the plus side, the news about Sarah Palin's daughter does prove that Mrs. Palin is in fact a mere mortal.

As a "mom" of a teenager who recently gave brith, I can say that the issue just doesn't freak me out like I guess it should. These things happen. That is not to minimize it in any way, but really, they do. Mrs. Palin stated that her daughter will be keeping the baby and that she and the father will be getting married. That should be the end of that story. But we'll see...

Christians Praying for Muslims

This year, the Muslim holiday of Ramadan coincides with the 30 days of September. Here is a link to pray for a Muslim country and its people each of those 30 days. It's a great site with a map as well as political and demographic information, too.

Day one is Tajikistan.
