Franken Won

That's right, now you own it. You have no more excuses, and everything you do - you own it. My thought on this situation is be careful what you wish for.

Franken v. Coleman

A reader sent this to me today...

"I noticed it is now June 1 and the State of Minnesota has yet to decide who will be its second US Senator. Franken v. Coleman; when an election, a re-count, seven months of litigation, and $50 million cannot determine a winner. This make politics in Illinois almost look good by comparison: sell the seat to the highest bidder! -RCC

Dear RCC,

Yes, on the surface, the folks to the far Northwest of Chicago do seem hopelessly locked in a bitter fight that's making Florida look good in comparison. Florida compares better. It's not even close to the graft, corruption, greed, nepotism, bloodshed and downright silly haircuts - that infest all Illinois politics, not just one highly sought after Senate chair. They've got that too... but for the money, Illinois has got so much more. Thanks for writing. Don't send any more pictures.

Gore Dodges Questions

Al Dodges Questions About the International Food Crisis, Ethanol and Climate Alarmism

A remarkable thing happened Thursday: a press member wanted to ask Nobel Laureate Al Gore about the growing international food crisis and how it relates to ethanol and global warming hysteria. It's something I might have mentioned before anyone else, ah, but who the hell is reading Blasphemes anyway?

Not surprisingly, the man who cast the tie-breaking vote in the Senate fourteen years ago mandating the use of ethanol wasn't available, and a spokesman for his hysteria-driving Alliance for Climate Protection declined to comment.

Well, Isn't that convenient?

Maybe this is why Gore isn't allowing press members into his speeches? Just a guess?

Meanwhile, in response to the global rice shortage - Costco and Sam's Clubs are limiting members to only 4 tons of rice (per visit). They still love you though.
