Karl Rove
says that Nancy Pelosi is “an accomplice to torture.” It takes one to know
one, Karl baby…Conservative shock Jock
Michael Savage, banned
from Britain, appealed to Hillary Clinton for help. HRC, having been savaged by Savage on too
many occasions must be LOL!...Dems
eye tax on beer, soda and chips proving they are sounding more and
more Republican by the
day…According to reports, Republicans are too afraid to muzzle
former Vice President Dick
Cheney who has been vociferously going after
President Obama on the
issue of national security. Hey, Republicans, can’t say that I blame
you! We all know what Cheney does when he gets mad…Comedienne
Wanda Sykes who is being roasted for her roasting of
Rush Limpbaugh Limbaugh
et al at the recent Washington correspondents dinner, became the
proud parent of twins in late April, delivered by Syke’s wife,
Alex. WANDA-ful…Governor
Sarah Palin is defending
Miss California Carrie
Prejean who has come under attack for her statement during The
Miss USA Pageant to judge
Perez Hilton that she does not believe in gay marriage saying in
her statement: “I respect Carrie for
standing strong and staying true to herself, and for not letting
those who disagree with her deny her protection under the nation's
First Amendment Rights.” Well, Sarah, when you’re right your right,
Mrs. Right…Prez Obama to
share the stage in New Mexico today, where he is touting credit card
reform, with wannabe President but couldn’t, wannabe Secretary of
State, but couldn’t, wannabe Commerce Secretary but couldn’t
Governor Bill Richardson… Drug Czar
Gil Kerlikowske,
calls an end to the war on drugs. Whatever he’s smoking, it helped…
Pfizer Inc. says it will provide 70 of its most widely prescribed
prescription drugs – including Lipitor and Viagra – for free to
people who have lost their jobs and health insurance proving there’s
an UPside to being laid off, and that it can be a lot more fun NOT
to work, as well as healthier, too...Feisty mother of Sen.
John McCain,
Roberta McCain, talks
straight with Jay Leno and sez “Rush
[Limp-baugh] Limbaugh does not represent the Republican Party
that I belong to.” Now you know where the granddaughter,
Meghan McCain gets her
moxy. OK, and maybe a little from her father, too….Maybe wannabe
Senator Norm Coleman
should quit while he’s not ahead. Reports say that the FBI is
expanding its investigation into Coleman’s alleged financial
shenanigans…Actor Ben Stiller
was spotted roaming around the White House looking for the President
who happened not to be there…Nancy
Pelosi caught in The
Water-boarding-did-she-or-didn’t-she-know-about-it-flap now sez the
Bush briefers lied to her, which makes me want to say: Liar, liar
pantsuit on fire!... Rep.
Linda Sánchez (D-CA) and her husband,
Jim Sullivan, announced
the birth of their first child,
Joaquin Sánchez Sullivan.
The healthy baby boy was born at 9:13a.m., Wednesday, May 13, 2009
weighing 7 pounds, 14.6 ounces and was 20.6 inches long. Rock-a-bye baby tra la la…
Quinnipiac’s latest poll shows
an 11-point gain for Rudy
Giuliani, the elder, against
Andrew Cuomo, the younger
for the NY State governorship...Uh O,
Karl Rove to be
interviewed in criminal probe of US attorney firings…Standing by
Nancy Pelosi, former Sen.
Bob Graham
insisted today
that he too was kept in the dark about the use of waterboarding, and
called the agency's records on these briefings “suspect,” prompting
the lyric to a new song, Stand By Your Girl tra la la la…On the
other hand, House Majority Leader
Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) isn't
exactly rushing to support
Nancy Pelosi's claim she was "misled" by CIA officials during a
2002 intel briefing on waterboarding prompting the lyric to another
song, Ding Dong the Witch is dead… Proving that at the end of the
day it pays to speak your truth, Miss California,
Carrie Projean, will
guest-host Fox’s Fox and Friends…The CIA today turned down
Dick Cheney’s request to release the torture docs, which must be
tortuous for Dick Cheney. How does it feel, Dickie boy?...Rush Limpbaugh Limbaugh likens the Democrats’ ‘quest for power’ to
his own drug addiction. What, is he on drugs?…Chris Matthews on Sarah Palin
book deal: “What an embarrassment.” Hey, Chris, why?...This ought to
be fun: This Week’s roundtable discussion will include
Steve Schmidt, James
Carville, George Will
and this week’s GOP babe,
Liz Cheney… Sen. John McCain
stands by President Obama
in his decision to
hold off on releasing prisoner abuse photos... Though Minnesota Gov.
Tim Pawlenty (R) is
thought to have a hankering to run for president in 2012, a new SurveyUSA poll finds
that 57% of Minnesota voters don't even want him to run for a third
term next year. Maybe if he’d stop defending
Norm Coleman, his poll
numbers would change. Or maybe he just needs to grow his hair back
to the mullet, or maybe not…You’d think that Consigliore
Rahm Emanuel’s secret
service name would be Rhambo, which is his nickname. No, it turns
out to be Black Hawk. Wouldn’t that suit
POTUS better? I’m just
asking…The missing Luke Russert has appeared on the pages of NBC’s
First Read. Welcome back…
Sen.
Kay Bailey Hutchison is preparing to run for governor of Texas and
is expected to resign from her seat in order to spend all of her
time on what could be a wild primary battle with incumbent Gov.
Rick Perry,
the Governor who would like to see Texas secede from the union. If
she does resign, her seat is considered vulnerable to the Dems, not
a pleasing thought to the GOP…Public pressure eventually will force
congressional Republicans to cut deals with the Obama administration
on big issues such as health care, President
Barack Obama aka
Karmac the Magnificent
predicted Thursday…To read more about Obama and Co. and the rest of
the Washington cast check out my new book,
A YEAR IN MY PAJAMAS WITH
PRESIDENT OBAMA, The Politics of Strange Bedfellows….And there
you have it kids, from the inside out.
