At least she doesn't look crazy!
Georgia Rep. Cynthis McKinney (DEM) has now stated that she hit a capitol police officer after an "inappropriate touching" incident. That's funny, I was pretty sure she DID NOT have on her congressional pin, bypassed security, did not stop at the request of the officer and then struck him in the chest when he grabbed her arm. She showed up today with Harry Belafonte, Danny Glover, several NAACP officials and school children from her district (holding signs - "God Bless Cynthia). After an on slaught of the racial blame game, Lethal Weapon Glover got up to throw in his 2 cents. Oh and this...naturally...
While McKinney asserted her innocence, her lawyer said she was "just a victim of being in Congress while black." "Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, like thousands of average Americans across this country, is, too, a victim of the excessive use of force by law enforcement officials because of how she looks and the color of her skin," James W. Myart Jr. said.
Howard Pressley, president of NAACP Georgia, called the incident a tragedy and use of excessive force. "The mistreatment of Cynthia McKinney at the hands of Capitol Hill Police is a tragedy of major proportion and points to the vigor of outright disrespect for women and people of color," Pressley said. Pressley and Myart also implied that McKinney's "progressive" politics may have made her a target for mistreatment.*
GEEZ...these are the same Democrates that want the illegal immigrants to continue breaking the law, just as they do. This is the same thing happening in every town, school, Walmart across this nation. It isn't about color, race or gender, it is about wrong and right, following the ESTABLISHED RULES and being justly punished for not. They break the rules and when they get called on it, they make up excuses. No, I'm not being a racist, this is just how it is. PEOPLE will not do the right thing.

How to be a liberal
1. You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on demand. 2. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity. 3. You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese and North Korean communists. 4. You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding. 5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical documented changes in the earth's climate and more affected by soccer moms driving SUV's. 6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual is natural. 7. You have to believe that the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding. 8. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th-graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex. 9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists who have never been outside of San Francisco do. 10.

You have to believe that Mel Gibson spent $25 million of his own money to make The Passion Of The Christ for financial gain only. 12.

You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried is because the right people haven't been in charge. 18.

THIS IS HOW I ROLL!!
Being the "eater" that I am, I know a ton of famous people! You might recognize Andy Armadillo from the Roadhouse, and my good buddy Cherry Limeade from Sonic. And yes, Cherry Limeade has a MAJOR crush on me...as you can tell by the sweet look he is giving me!
So now that the tag-board is back...AND Seashell is talking of posting, I am sitting here in my office refreshing the page every 15 seconds. It has been about 4 hours now, but I am hopeful that any second there will be a new post.

------------------------------------------------------------------------- What would make them do it ?
Did you ever wonder why someone would actually want to be the mayor of New Orleans ? I mean it seems to be the last place on the planet that anyone would actually want to be mayor, yet almost 25 people have thown their hats into the ringer for the job. I thought a bit and came up with what may be the top 10 reasons to want to be the Mayor of New Orleans:
10) Free parking ( above water ) 9) Guaranteed private room in Super Dome during next hurricane season. 8) Unlimited peeks through any Bourbon street club door. 7) Free ride on King of Zulu's float. 6) "On-demand" King Cakes during coffee breaks 5) "On-demand" coffee breaks 4) Yelling "throw me somethin' mistah" not necessary during any Mardi Gras parade for beads and/or dubloons 3) Personal two-story FEMA trailer ( stored in Hope, AR ) 2) Allotment of any superior to blame anything on. 1) Free beer.

Brokeback Mole Hill
"Brokeback Mountan" author Annie Proulx wrote a scathing 1,094 word article in The Guardian last week. She trashed the Oscars (big whoop there) and then laid into America as being out of touch with what is happening in the main stream culture. HA! I don't think we are out of touch with the fact that perverse men like to have sex with each other... and ditto for those women. Love and sex are two different things, and the glorification of perverted sex was, unfortunately for Proulx, Ang Lee and others, trumped by a film about race relations. As the squeaky wheels keep on squeakin', the fires of hell keep on burnin'.

------------------------------------------------------------------------- If I had it to do all over again...
I realized something this morning. I am so grateful for Easter. It goes well beyond Jesus' death burial and victorious resurrection,… it's the Cadbury Crème Eggs. Yes, seems this is the only time of the year that Mrs. Phynerk brings these delectable treats home with her for me to ingest. What I began pondering was "Why do these things seem to be only available during this time of the year?" No one can deny that if they were available all year long then the company that made them would be way out ahead of Microsoft in annual sales figures. No…it must be some other reason. I know that since the business world runs strictly by the greed principle.Otherwise these chocolate darlings would be on my table all year long. That's when it dawned on me; it's not a matter of bad business judgment, it's the fact that these delicacies are just not approachable during any other time of the year due to the reproductive cycles of the English Cadbury Bird. These tiny creatures only have their egg laying cycle during March and April which pretty much limits us to consuming the eggs during the Holy season of Easter. It just puzzles me that with so much wealth to be made that birdologist cannot find a means of extending or actually controlling the reproductive habits of the English Cadbury Bird. In fact, I was also amazed that so little is known of these creatures ( I couldn't find a picture of one even with Google images) . I think that some of our college-bound Convoginators might consider possibly reevaluating what they are majoring in at present and redirect their dreams and efforts into this extremely lucrative and exciting field of English Cadbury Bird reproductive study. The ability to extend the bird's laying cycle would change the world as we know it. I would also help dentists the world over. Phynerk

------------------------------------------------------------------------- A prayer from New Orleans
Lord, our hearts and our leaders tell us that you used the fury of nature itself to punish our area for its gross sin and disobedience. So now after six months of deep suffering we see your merciful hand in helping lift us up out of the miry clay. Well, I'd like to talk more but, hey, the parade's about to start and I'm hoping the chicks will be as loose as I know the booze will. See 'ya.
