Rule 5 -- Denise Milani!

In wholesome, clean-cut, All-American outdoor exercise, full of healthy vitamin D and hardly any pron, voyeurism or perversion to speak of...

Michael Steele Calls for Harry Reid to Resign...

But, you know, just from the Speakership, not his Senate seat... don't want to hurt anybody's feelings er nuthin...

Mikey, it's nice that you're talking tough to a Democrat who's already doomed in his home state.  It would be nicer if the national GOP organization wasn't spending its every waking moment trying to shove DIABLO's (Democrats In All But Label Only) down our throats in state after state.  Whether you're talking about Scozzafava in New York, Crist in Florida, Fiorina in California, Kirk in Illinois or Norton in Colorado, get this straight: NOBODY ASKED YOU.  You don't tell us who our candidates will be, WE THE PEOPLE tell you and you go to work for us to make it happen.   This is not a difficult concept to grasp.

You have been behind the curve on EVERY major development in Republican politics since you took office.  When the Gang of Eight betrayed their party and country not only did they go unpunished, you rewarded Kirk with a fast track to a Senate campaign. You scorned the Tea Parties and talked about how you were "confident" the GOP could "mitigate" the health care disaster.  Well, you didn't and now the Tea Party is reaping the interest and support our party should have.  Even GOP candidates across the country are courting them behind your back, because THEY understand that that IS or SHOULD BE your base.

You keep churning out the same cookie-cutter 'moderate' candidates across the country, even though when you ran the ultimate 'moderate' John McCain, you got slaughtered.  Now he's talking tough to the Obama he once kissed up to but you haven't got the message yet.

You publish a book of "Republican Principles" clipped from the e-mails of your angry base, but you do nothing to live up to them.. You care more about stuffing the RNC offices with your relatives and cronies than you do about stuffing the Congress with true Republicans who will turn this country around.

You tell us to either stop complaining or fire you.  Believe me, we would... but WE never hired you in the first place.

You had better wake up and realize that this coming election is not going to be a referendum on party but incumbency.  If you don't figure this out soon, the voters are going to realize they don't need the GOP machine dragging them down.

Sink or swim, Mr. Steele but you will not drag us down with you.

So Good I Hadda Steal It...

Rule 5 -- Lauren Bacall!

With the musical stylings of Andy WIlliams and hardly any pØrn at all...

Fuck You Very Much, Mistah Commander in Chief. Sir. (12)

Even as they add 1,000,000 senior citizens to prescription drug programs in an underfunded Medicare system they describe as inefficient and corrupt, even as they shuffle veterans in private substandard 'convalescent homes' to sell off VA land to private developers,  Obama Adminstration denies Veterans COLA increases.  Congress and career Federal employees get theirs.

This Fool Thinks He's Accomplished Something...

...And he wants to make sure everyone knows about it...

So how's the mileage on that Teutonic Stink-pot on veggie oil, Mister Green? What's that? It's worse?

How much food was destroyed to produce your virtuous veggie fuel, Mr. Green? How many acres that could have been growing groceries were sacrificed to your vanity statement?

How many children went to bed without their spinach for your morning commute?

I Do Not Need This Shit, Part One

By this time next week, I may not be associated with either Operation Gratitude, the GOP or the American Legion.

Apparently people I thought were my friends decided to launch a backstabbing campaign against me while I was frivolously back home burying my mother.  Evidently my participation in Rule 5 does not meet their high moral standards, so they've been contacting all the above organizations to complain about me.   They've been throwing around words like pornography, and pervert.  One of them even appears to be claiming to speak officially for the American Legion.

I'm waiting for the commander of my American Legion post to return to town next week, to address the Legion-related issues with him, but you all know Mark Twain's quote to the effect that "a lie can run halfway around the world while the truth is getting its boots on."  Every time I've held off on doing something about these people, something even worse has turned up.

I'll tell you one thing, though.  Before I go, I'm going to make some people stars.


IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER:  None of this trouble originates with Operation Gratitude, which remains an honestly-run, incredibly cost-effective, nonpartisan charity that does outstanding work for the troops overseas.  I strongly recommend Operation Gratitude to anyone looking to do something for the troops, no matter my personal relations with the organization or how this shakes out.

Ruke 5 -- Juliana Moreira!
