By SnifflesHere are some random thoughts crossing our furry little minds this evening.
We cats never cease to be amazed at the hypocrisy of conservatives. They're all cheering because the U.S. lost its bid to host the 2016 summer Olympic games today. You can bet that if a Republican were in the White House, they'd be rooting for any American city to win — especially against a Brazilian socialist like Lula da Silva.
Actually, we like Lula. (We were just employing sarcasm.) But we've never been a big fan of the IOC. Particularly since they refused to cancel the games after the Israeli team was massacred in 1972. Oh, and that guy Avery Brundage was a Nazi.
Meanwhile, it seems that John Ensign is back in the news again. Same story of illicit Republican sex and smarmy payoffs, but this time with more details. Ugh, what a crook. But we laughed out loud when we heard Mitch McConnell say he wasn't going to discuss it because the article had come out just today. Well, Mr. Minority Leader, what other day would you discuss it?
And speaking of GOP travails, we are loving the Republican cat fights going on right now, whether they're between McCain campaign manager Steve Schmidt and the former Governor of Alaska, What's Her Name, or between David Brooks and the Oxycontin addict. You go, girls!
Finally, we cats think it's silly that Representative Alan Grayson found it necessary to apologize for using the word "holocaust" to describe the 45,000 Americans who die each year for lack of health insurance. First, that sounds like a holocaust to us. But can we be the only ones who realized that it was "holocaust" with a small "h"?
