Christina Aguilera as Torture
And when he fell asleep, they woke him “by dropping water on his head or playing Christina Aguilera music.

What electrocuting genitals can’t do – you CAN, Christina. And your country is proud of you.

Oh such a wonderful premise for pop culture jokes. Such an easy way to talk about celebrities I think are annoying. I’m shaking. I am. Stories like these only come around once every couple of weeks. *EXHALE* Pace yourself, Tina. Don’t get too excited.

The obvious:

  • In a way, I feel bad for Ashlee Simpson. Her ‘music’ not being used as torture at Gitmo is like getting booed at the Orange Bowl all over again. Ashlee just can’t seem to get a break.
  • One word Bennifer. The last one or the current.
  • “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” karaoke!
  • More in depth:
    Premise for a new reality show. “Who Can Torture Al Qaeda?” It can be hosting by Ant or Craig Kilborn. Rejects from “American Idol”, “Last Comic Standing” and those that made it into the last season of “The Bachelor” take turns irking Gitmo prisoners. Those that get the detainees to talk win a one way ticket to Iraq to help ’spread freedom’. We’ll be making America a better place but utilizing our natural resources – annoying reality show contestants.

    Okay, I won’t milk this bit anymore…not right now anyway…maybe later.

    Just Beat It

    mikey

    There is this performer, he was HUGE back in the ’80’s. His name is Michael Jackson. There was this little trial, something about him sleeping with children.

    Anyway, since there has been little to no coverage on this news story, I feel as a comedy blogger, a responsibility to report the story.

    Micheal Jackson was found not guilty on all ten counts of child molestation and boozing up children in order to molest them. See, he had this hit song in the ’80’s called “Beat It” and now it makes a nice little pun for the title of this post. I’m clever.

    The media just really dropped the ball on this one. All this coverage of the Downing Street Memo and the genocide in Darfur has just over shadowed this VERY important case. This is a historical event in jurisprudence that the MSM have INTENTIONALLY avoided.

    What are they afraid of? Losing ratings? Talking about lewd actions with minors? Giving Al Sharpton more air time?

    It’s time to take a stand. Tell these reporters and journalistic type people that you want to hear more about the Micheal Jackson trial. Not just ‘ticker time’ either. Tell them that you want IN DEPTH reporting on this issue. Maybe some outrageous pundits to chatter on a 24-hour loop. This is a story that needs to be brought to the American public’s and maybe even the WORLD’s attention.

    Thank God for the internet – or these momentous and crucial moments in the justice system would have little or NO coverage at all.

     

    Party

    birthday

    This was taken by the super talented Duane Peck.

    Once I’ve recovered from the party…

    Let me get back to you on the one.

     

    Quick note:

    I’m forcing myself to celebrate my birthday this weekend. Time to leave my little – size of a closet – office and get out in the real world. That’s right. Hang out in a place where no one is doing stand up in the other room. Hang out in a place where I’m not doing stand up in the other room.

    In short: do something different.

    Cheers.

    Another comedian (Eugene Mirman) beat me to the punch on this one.

    Hysterical article.

    Conservative Phone Company Exploits Wedge Issues for Profit
    UAT: UAT, Mr. Mirman, is the only carrier that is taking an active stand against same-sex marriages and hardcore child pornography.

    MIRMAN: I think all child pornography is hardcore … It’s all wrong. AT&T sponsors child pornography?

    UAT: No, no. That’s MCI.

    MIRMAN: MCI sponsors hardcore child pornography?

    UAT: Yes, they have a pedophile Web site for men who love boys. Uh, it’s a Montreal-based Web site.

    MIRMAN: Oh my God! Our Canadian pervert neighbors!

    UAT: Mmm hmm.

    MIRMAN: So MCI basically has a child pornography ring.

    UAT: That’s correct.

    Eat your heart out – Ben and Jerry’s!

    Kennedy, Clinton and Dean

    One of the MANY theories about the assassination of JFK was that it was Lyndon Johnson (his VP) that orchestrated the whole thing. President Kennedy was shot in Texas, where Johnson was from. Texas is where Johnson had fixed a couple of elections to get himself into power in the first place. Since Johnson retired from the White House without seeking re-election, there has been speculation as to why that was. Was it his conscience (as IF politicians have them) that caught up with him? He had a therapist that recorded their sessions toward the end of Johnson’s life. Again, all kinds of speculation about what’s on those tapes.

    This is my favorite of all JFK conspiracies. There are so many to choose from (i.e. the mob, Cuba, scorned lover etc.). Why this is my favorite? Because I know that Democrats LOVE to assassinate their own!

    Case in point: Bill Clinton. One little impeachment trial and he’s a leper. Al Gore ran for president completely separate from Intern-gate. They didn’t want anything to do with that smudge. Aside from all the scandal (and some BECAUSE of it) – people like Clinton. But Gore in 2000 chose not to align himself with a two term president. He divorced himself from Clinton’s legacy and guess how that turned out?

    Another case in point: Howard Dean. He says something derogatory about Republicans…

    Dean “doesn’t speak for me with that kind of rhetoric and I don’t think he speaks for the majority of Democrats,” Biden, the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.”

    …back and to the left. Back and to the left. BACK and to the left…

    John Edwards and Joseph Biden say that Dean isn’t the voice of the party – and doesn’t speak for them! He’s the DNC Chairman! If Dean ISN’T the voice of the party – it’s because the party HAS NO VOICE. The party has been on the run from the Republican publicity machine. Beaten to a pulp. Unrecognizable as a voice, movement or a party. Then strangely like other minority groups, they start fighting amongst themselves.

    Republicans don’t do this. If a Republican gets in trouble, the wagons get circled and let the spinning begin! Then every talking point for the next week begins with,”See, what the president meant to say was…”

    The Republicans have figured out that it’s NEVER the leaders that do anything wrong. No. If there is a MISTAKE (God forbid) it’s the fault of low ranking military personnel.

    But Democrats don’t want to take the wrong stance and end up not standing for ANYTHING. At least Dean makes off-the-cuff comments about Republicans – which is SOMETHING!

    We’ve all met that person that AGREES with us all the time.

    tina *SIGH* “Does this mean we can have more than one political party?”

    donkey “If you say so, it does!”

    What is wrong with Kansas?

    kay
    Kansas State Senator Kay O’Connor

    Conservatives like to point out that liberals are overly concerned about hypocrisy. It’s unfortunate. Concern with hypocrisy seems to be the liberal Achilles Heal. The GOP has no such weakness. That’s why they dominate the two branches of government and threaten the other one. They don’t care about duplicity. You have to admire them for it. As one would admire a street mime for their lack of self-loathing. It must be bliss to not loss sleep over your contradictions. You just raise the big huge all-encompassing tent and rest easy.

    Kansas State Senator, Kay O’Connor has served in the state legislature for 12 years.

    In 2001, O’Connor received national attention for her remarks about the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1920, which gave women the right to vote.

    “I think the 19th Amendment, while it’s not an evil in and of itself, is a symptom of something I don’t approve of,” she said at the time. “The 19th Amendment is around because men weren’t doing their jobs, and I think that’s sad. I believe the man should be the head of the family. The woman should be the heart of the family.”

    See the liberals will quickly point out that O’Connor is (we believe) a woman. And more so than that a female politician. But when you’re a Republican you are immune to worrying about facts like these. It’s not about women’s suffrage it’s about…men…jobs…family? I’m at a loss.

    Anyway, the voters (I’m assuming some of them utilizing their 19th Amendment rights) have kept her in office since 1993 and now O’Connor is seeking the seat of Secretary of State.

    Liberals take note:

    Using the word ‘hypocrisy’ for members of the GOP is like spraying Raid on a Texas cockroach – it just makes them stronger, angrier and more determined to grow opposable thumbs and take over your mortgage.
