Teddy Tiddy Kennedy Endorses Obama

The question is, does Obama want it? Kennedy is the "Elder Statesman" for the Democratic party. Normally, under any other circumstances his endorsement would be welcomed. However, does it help or hurt Obama? After all, Kennedy is part of America's most scandal ridden political family (excluding the Clintons) and I question anyone who accepts his blessing. This is, after all, a man who was......

Expelled from Harvard in 1951 for cheating on a Spanish exam.

A man who is arguably responsible for the death of Mary Jo Kopechne. When he left her submerged in a car after an accident, she was very probably still alive. At the time of Mary Jo's death, Kennedy was driving on an expired license, which showed disregard for even the most basic of laws.

A man who favors alternative energy sources except (Cape Wind Turbine Farm) when they compromise his Cape Cod view.

A man whose boorish and drunken behavior contributed to the sexual assault of a young woman by his nephew William Kennedy Smith.

Was a major supporter of the "The Big Dig" which is one of the leading examples of cost overruns and government waste in American history and contributed to the death of a young mother.

I could go on and on regarding the history of the Kennedy family who the Lame Stream Media have an annoying habit of calling "America's Royal Family" but my computer only has a 80 gig hard-drive and it's half-full now.

2/05/08----Update: It seems the voters of MA have rejected the Kennedy's and their endorsement of Obama. Cankles has been declared the winner of the MA primary. I'm watching Chris Wallace interview Karl Rove as I type and Rove actually referred to Tiddy as a "legend". I'm sure there was some sarcasm on Rove's part if one reads between the lines but who knows. I can think of many things to call Tiddy Kennedy but "legend" doesn't make the very long list.

Another Hollywood Celebrity Hiding Out In Rehab

Sean Young. Yeah, I bet you've heard of her before. She's famous for making an ass out of herself by harassing James Woods and for many other incidents and she shows no signs of letting up after all these years. She got herself into an embarrassing situation at the Directors Guild Awards and then, like so many Hollywood nitwits, immediately afterwards headed off to rehab. It's getting to be a pattern with these overpaid, spoiled shit-stains. Do something stupid, blame it on drugs or alcohol, then head off to Rehab to "confront their demons". She gets the latest "Douche-bag Award" from The World Of Greasywrench. I have a newsflash for Ms Young. It's not the drugs or alcohol causing your bizarre behavior. It's you. Maybe you, Britney, and Lindsey can all get together in group and trade war stories.

The Peoples Republik Of Berkeley

Just in from Michelle Malkin. Another outrage from the Left Coast. I wonder who these nit-wits are gonna call in the event of a war? Hippies and sensitive artists? Something strange happens here on the Left Coast. The farther North one travels, the more ridiculous people seem to get. Google Geraldo Sandoval and you will see what I mean. Excuse me if I come off sounding a little melodramatic but the attitudes of some of these people in San Francisco and Berkeley are absurd.

Jeff Jacoby On The Clintons

I am a subscriber to Jeff Jacoby of the Boston Globe and his columns. His latest rant is a post about the Clinton's and their ambitions. As Jeff points out, Bill and Billary weren't content to give an incoming President Bush his day in the Sun on Bush's inauguration, but instead opted to entertain themselves with an Air Force Rally complete with a 21 gun salute.
I am never surprised by these two Trailer Trash clowns and the endless self-promotion they continuously engage in. Of all our Commander's-In-Chief, Clinton is the last one who should bathe himself in the limelight provided by our armed services. His blatent disrespect for the American Military during his Presidency should be cause enough to keep away from any U.S. Military base. He belongs at the swap meet instead, with all due respect to swap meet patrons.

Have A Nice Trip Douchebag

All I can say is enjoy Hell asshole. No 72 virgins for you, unless Allah rewards nitwits and incompetence. There is some justice in the world. This isn't the first time I've read stories like this and I hope it won't be the last. This reminds me of the Weather Underground bombers who blew themselves to hell back in the seventies. Great stuff.

Actor Heath Ledger Dies

Just saw this headline on Excite. Preliminary reports point to drug overdose. What a terrible waste of talent and life. RIP Heath Ledger. I thought he was great in Monster's Ball. I didn't care much for Brokeback Mountain. His work in the Patriot with Mel Gibson was quite good. His body of work has yet to be really evaluated. He just finished filming the role of Joker in the latest Batman entry.

Flowers On My Squash Today

Yeah big deal. I know all you folks back East are freezing to death and here I am posting jpg's of my Straight neck squash. That's the only advantage to living in the Peoples Republik of Kalifornia, good weather. These are Summer squash that I'm growing here in the Winter. I'm gonna have some Zucchini or some fried squash in a week or two. The flower is a female for anyone who's into the sexual gender of curcubits and their flowers. If I pollinated it properly (I use Q-Tips) it should be soup in about five to ten days. I hand pollinate my flowers because wild bees are in short supply in my neighborhood and I want squash now. My buddy three blocks over is plagued with bees but I don't seem to have the same luck.

Internet Pet Rant

I just saw this on a text response on YouTube and it drives me crazy. Why is it when someone tries to spell "no one" they spell it "noone"? It's not a big deal I know, but it bugs the shit out of me. There is no such word (as far as I know) as noone in modern English. It is a proper noun such as the name of Peter Noone of Herman's Hermits but it's not the way to spell "no one". It's a slow day today so I thought I would post it. Let's hear it for spellcheckers.

Hugo The Coke Head - Nahhh!

This link at the bottom of the page is from the Miami Herald. Hugo Chavez says he uses Cocaine on a daily basis. Does this explain some of his bizarre actions? Who would have thunk it based on his serene and subdued personality. Read about it below. I found the link on Sweetness and Light.

Bobby Fischer Is Dead

Well they're no longer searching for Bobby Fischer. He's played his last match. It's Checkmate Bobby. Say what you want about Bobby in his later years when he became famous for his anti-Semitic rants and many of the anti-American statements he made. In 1972 he electrified the world with his defeat of Russian chess champion Boris Spassky when I was just a 18 year old stock clerk working my first job out of high school. I didn't play then (I later learned) but the match reports from Iceland were gripping. At that time the Soviets were considered the masters of world class chess, so for a cocky young American to come along and hand them their "collective" hats was inspiring. We probably had an entire generation of chess players due to his exploits. Long live the King.

ACLU Says Public Bathrooms Are Private

You have to hand it to Larry Craig. First he pleads guilty. Then he changes his mind and tries to say his toe-tapping was misinterpreted. Then he tried to withdraw his guilty plea in an attempt to justify not leaving the Senate. Now the ACLU weighs in with this ridiculous opinion.

"The ACLU also noted that Craig was originally charged with interference with privacy, which it said was an admission by the state that people in the bathroom stall expect privacy"

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but in a public restroom the privacy part comes into play when I'm going to use the facilities for what they were intended for. If these ass-hats at the ACLU get any more absurd someone please shoot me. BTW, who's liberties is the ACLU protecting nowadays? Certainly not mine. When I use a public restroom the only thing I want to be concerned about is if there's soap and toilet tissue, not a U.S. Senator in the next stall looking for love in all the wrong places. Hey Larry. Have some guts and come out of the closet. Most decent people don't hate Gays. But, most decent people detest liars, especially politicians who are liars.

Mike Nifong Files Bankruptcy

I just found a link on HotAir.com to the following story. Seems that Mike Nifong is in financial trouble. I am a firm believer in Karma, Poetic Justice, What Goes Around Comes Around, whatever you want to call it. Anyway, his own bullshit has come around and taken a big wet bite out of his ass. It couldn't have happened to a bigger douche. This shit-stain was in the process of building his political career on the backs of four innocent men and he knew it. Have a bad day Mike. You deserve it.

Awesome Dude!

You gotta check out this vid. I've never surfed even though I live near some of the most famous surfing beaches in the U.S. My Brother is very good and surfed Hawaii in the past. I used to be pretty good (Yeah, big deal) on a skim board though. Anyway, this has to be a thirty foot wave this guy is riding and he just slams it.

We're All Doomed...

in about 40 million years. I just read this article on the Register, a British tech site I often visit. A giant gas cloud composed of Hydrogen is heading for our Milky Way galaxy. The cloud was discovered in 1963 and named after the astronomer who discovered it. The cloud is known as Smith's cloud (we can assume the astronomer's name was Smith) and I can't wait for it to get here. Actually it will hit somewhere in the outter edge our galaxy in one of the spiral arms. Some great renderings appear on the link below.

Let The Race Baiting Begin

Well that didn't take too long. The politics of race has reared its ugly head now in the Democratic primaries. All it took was Obama's win in Iowa for Cankles to find her long-lost femininity and shed a few faux tears. Next it took Cankles win in New Hampshire to re-affirm her arrogance and a newly unleashed Clinton political machine to start the politics of race.

Hillary is trying to affirm her street cred and display her religious convictions by showing up at several Black Churches in the last few days. Funny thing is she doesn't seem to give the same respect and lip service to "White" Churches. I wonder if she's found anew her condescending cadence and accent that seems to come and go at will, depending on the color of the congregation. The truth is; should Billary be nominated and win the Presidency in November she most likely won't set foot in another Church, black or white, unless decorum demands it, for the remainder of her term.

By making the ridiculous remarks about MLK and his dependence on LBJ for the Civil Rights Victories of the sixties she really put her big foot in her mouth. Obama and his supporters were obligated to call her on it. The article is posted on Excite. Click on the link below.

I Worked On A Batmobile Today

I had some fun today. I did a little job on a 1959 Impala with a 348ci engine. The car is a classic old Chevy that kind of resembles the Batmobile. The 348 engine was uncommon in its day. I guess it's the original big block Chevy engine. Most of the late fifties cars were powered by small blocks and straight six engines.

Anyway, it was an easy diagnosis. The car had a fuel delivery problem that turned out to be a defective fuel pump. Easy job. Easy quick forty dollars. Yes I know, I work cheap. Twenty minutes of work in total after I opened the hood it's off and running.

The car is for sell and advertised on Craig's List for $6,500.00 dollars. I found the job listing on Craig's List also. As far as selling the car I told the owner he would regret it in ten years. Anyway, I missed the Colts game while working on the car and it turned out they lost. It would have been a drag to watch since I'm a Peyton Manning fan. Wait until next year.

Last but not least, the picture above is another 1959 I downloaded from the web. The actual car I worked on is also a four door but it's a very nice silver color.

Lame Stream Media Hard At Work

Funny clip of Erin Burnett I had to post. Found it on HotAir. The look she give when the camera cuts to her is priceless. It was almost as she were caught in the cookie jar.

RIP Johnny Grant

Being from So Cal means knowing who Johnny Grant is. Although I try and avoid Hollywood nowadays because of traffic, cruising laws, etc... his name will always be associated with the city. He was known as the honorary Mayor of Hollywood for many years and was an all-around good guy. He is among the last of a dying breed of people. With me being 54, I can remember him when I was a youngster and he appeared old even then. The other day I saw an article about him and happened to wonder how old he was. Well, bless his soul because he passed away at the age of 84. If you've ever seen the clips of celebrities getting their stars on the Walk Of Fame, you've probably seen Johnny Grant doing the MC for it.

Breaking News!

Just in: the U.S. government has just determined that America's young people use cough syrup to get high. Ugh, I have a news flash for the government, kids have been doing this for at least thirty years. NyQuil was an early choice for most kids. Yeah, my info is anecdotal but I can remember lots and lots of kids drinking the disgusting tasting foul green brew. A guy I used to work with would chug an entire large bottle on a regular basis. Oh well, our leaders in drug enforcement and health services are always ahead of the curve and forever vigilant.

Obama Concedes New Hampshire Primary

I'm watching Obama speak as I type. He's making a good speech as usual. I gotta admit the Dems usually have better speakers. I wonder why. One word I'm getting tired of hearing is "change". It seems to be the catch-phrase of the 2008 campaign. Brit Hume ran a very funny clip on Fox this afternoon lampooning the word "change" as one candidate after another used it over and over. The crew or audience in the background was cracking up.
Another thing that is really starting to piss me off is the term "hiding in the shadows" when one of the candidates refers to illegal aliens. I don't know where you live, but I live in the South Bay area of Los Angeles and the illegals here are sure as hell not in the "shadows". From the hundreds of workers who gather at the day labor hiring center in Harbor City, the E.R. at Harbor UCLA in Torrance, the shit-heads next door who fire up the leaf blowers at eight in the morning on Saturday, to the asshole who wanders down 20th street in the morning shouting "tamales" at the top of his lungs, they're all out in the open. There aren't any shadows here in San Pedro.

More Leftist Disrespect For Our Military

I don't know how I missed this one. It seems it happened last week in Chicago. It just illustrates how the legacy of the sixties keeps on giving. Pay attention to the details about the alleged perp in this story. If Jay Grodner is guilty of keying the car of Marine Sgt. Michael McNulty, then he deserves far more punishment than the courts are prepared to dish out. For some reason all of the links to Mr Grodner's website are dead. Hmmm... I wonder why. Mr Grodner also cried foul and accused Sgt. McNulty of making anti-semetic remarks when he (Grodner) was interviewed by Chicago Police. That is a classic tactic of the left. Accuse your accuser of racism or some other form of discrimination. Is Grodner a classic anti-military sixties hippie turned yuppie lawyer? You decide. Follow the various links to Grodner and learn more about his profile and past. On his profile in the love-connection site he describes his hair color as "mixed". I describe it as bald. Can you imagine this old fucker in a tie-dyed shirt and sandals? Ughhh!
One other thing. Sgt. McNulty is on his way to Iraq for a second tour of duty. Thank you Sgt. McNulty for your service to the U.S.

Is Hillary A Chronic Liar?

Right now, Dick Morris is seriously ripping the shit out of Hillary on Hannity and Colmes. As usual, Alan Colmes has his head so far up Hillary's ass he's breathing for her. Morris actually compared her to Walter Mitty. I gotta agree that her stories and claims are getting more bizarre by the day. Next thing she's gonna claim is landing on the Moon.

Goodbye Adam Gadahn. DLTDHYITAOYWO

So this later-day Tokyo Rose is tearing up his passport now. He's a freaking cliche`. It's like watching the sixties all over again seeing this shit-stain. I'm sure thousands at Moveon.org are having coffee (Starbucks of course) and cake while celebrating this guy's "brave stand." I post this link because the comments coming from Hotair.com are absolutely hilarious. Read below. I feel a Jasc Paintshop Pro moment coming on.

Update! I feel compelled to award Gadahn the WPOS award for January 2008. Here's to you lackey.

Clinton Going Negative

Well I wonder what took them so long to find an excuse. Watch the gloves come off now. Now if they can only find a way to blame that "vast right wing conspiracy" on her defeat in the Iowa Caucuses. Good article below. Read it and get some more insight into the Clinton mindset. Things are going to get real nasty in the coming months. Let's see how long it takes to get "race" tossed into the reasons Obama isn't a viable candidate. Of course, we know it has to come out before the Republicans do it anyway.

We're gonna have a weekend full of rain here in the South Bay. It's going to drop up to ten feet of snow up in Mammoth Lakes and a ton of rain here. My tomatoes are already blown down by the wind. Shit!
