I don't usually pass along the videos, petitions and such I get from being on various anti-McCain, pro-Obama, and general political mailing lists. As I think I've said, I figure most of you already are on those lists or not if you choose to be.
I'm making an exception for this petition, calling on McCain to disavow an ad based on lies.
Anyway, I'm making the exception, not because I think it's the most important issue of the day--it isn't, though it's not the least, either--but for my own pride. Or ego if you like.
See, when I signed the petition, I added a little comment "to" Senator McCain. I'm no fool (not about this, anyway), I know the odds of the Senator ever reading this petition at all are about as likely as his making it out of "crazy base world" without redeeming his frequent flip-flop miles.
But I kind of like what I came up with and wanted to preserve it. So here's what I said.
"It's hard to believe a war-hero like yourself is doing this. Stop lying Senator, and regain the respect of people like me who once liked you regardless of political party.
And, I have to believe, regain your own self-respect as well.
Not if you win or lose, but how you play the game, Senator."

What is this, a Disney movie?
University of Washington researchers say gummy bears containing the sugar substitute xylitol may work as a tool to combat cavities in children.
In a six-week study conducted in Washington state, gummy bears infused with xylitol seemed to reduce cavity-causing bacteria on children's teeth.
Xylitol is a naturally-occurring sugar alcohol approved by the FDA. Gum with xylitol is already on the market, but researchers wanted something more appealing for youngsters.
If it turns out chocolate covered marshmallows are a dietary aid, I may pass out.

The pride is back.
PJ writes of this moveon commercial,
Yes, that is the good-looking Ms. Benson.
Along with (among others) Rider Strong, who is one of the creators of the ad. Strong is known to indie horror fans as the lead actor in Cabin Fever. And as Shawn Hunter of Boy Meets World, to American teenage girls of the 1990s, and guys (who were) in their late 20s, like me, who liked Topanga just a little bit more than we should probably admit.
(But I am not ashamed of that fact, I am proud, proud. Proud, do you hear me?)
and in our defense, can you blame us?
Is that a rare sighting of Amber Benson? Ben will tell me.

Surprise, surprise, surprise.
I ask this, frankly, with very little real curiosity, because I'm pretty sure I already know the answer and so do you. But do you suppose any of the people who like to go around spouting that liberal entertainers are responsible for disasters and tragedies are going to have anything to say about this?
Let's remember, O'Reilly likes to tell people that gangs of brutal lesbians are roaming the streets (I know he says a lot of crap, but that may be my all-time favorite). Then there's Michael Savage, who bullied callers to his own television show by calling them "sodomites" who should "get AIDS and die." And Sean "a Democratic victory in the November elections would be a victory for the terrorists" Hannity.
(As dday says at Hullabaloo,
Knoxville Police Department Investigator Steve Still wrote in the search warrant that Adkisson "admitted to shooting McKendry and several others at the church."
Adkisson went on a rampage at the church, Still wrote, "because of its liberal teachings and his belief that all liberals should be killed because they were ruining the country, and that he felt that the Democrats had tied his country's hands in the war on terror and they had ruined every institution in America with the aid of major media outlets."
Still seized three books from Adkisson's home, including "The O'Reilly Factor," by television commentator Bill O'Reilly; "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder," by radio personality Michael Savage; and "Let Freedom Ring," by political pundit Sean Hannity.

Assuming causation may be an imperfect science, but these are the same folks who blamed Marilyn Manson for Columbine so I don't have much sympathy.)

Deep And Sexy...well, sexy anyway
Amanda Peet reminds me why I decided to become obsessed with her.
I've never seen any of Anita Briem's movies (either of them), but she bears watching.
Kim Cattrall lookin' cheap 'n' sexy. And I mean both of those as a good thing.
Jennifer Love Hewitt makes out with a crow.
Quick! Which of the Olsen Twins do I think is hotter?
and, Ginger Lynn makes me wonder what kind of a sorry freak Charlie Sheen must be to have let her get away.
people worry about religious fanatics, but no one's ever heard of a faith-based fanatic.
God Help Us
Let's start with faith-based, which was chosen by right-wing holy people to replace the word religious in political contexts. In other words, they've conceded that religion has a bad name. I guess they figure people worry about religious fanatics, but no one's ever heard of a faith-based fanatic.
And by the way, none of the Bush religious fanatics will admit this, but the destruction of the World Trade Center was a faith-based initiative. A fundamentalist-Moslem, faith based initiative. Different faith, but hey, we're all about diversity here.
The use of faith-based is just one more way the Bush administration found to bypass the constitution. They knew Americans would never approve of government-promoted religious initiatives, but faith-based? Hey, what's the problem?
The term faith-based is nothing more than an attempt to slip religion past you when you're not thinking, which is the way religion is always slipped past you.
--from George Carlin's final book.
Ok, the TN Church gunman thing
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Knoxville’s police chief says the man accused of a shooting that killed two people at a Tennessee church targeted the congregation because of its liberal social stance.
Chief Sterling Owen IV said Monday that police found a letter in Jim D. Adkisson’s car. Owen said Adkisson was apparently frustrated over being out of work and had a “stated hatred of the liberal movement.” The church is known for advocating women’s and gay rights and founding an American Civil Liberties Union chapter.
Crooks and Liars:
Adkisson is obviously a very disturbed person, regardless of his political views. We will most likely learn more details in time, but the picture that’s developing is one of a typical, uninformed Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Wiener-Savage fan — an angry white male who has been brainwashed into thinking that everything wrong in America and around the world is the fault of the evil liberals.
I've nothing to add, except: What the hell was I doing in Knoxville, Tennessee five years ago?
Hark! A herd of the picturesque!
In one place (the Cartier Polo match in the UK) yesterday, we find the following faces:
Actress Kelly Brook, about whose outfit I have only this to say: When even I go "Man, that's '80s"...it's a sign of something.
Emma "It's OK, she's 18 now" Watson, showing what a sexy bride she'll make someday, as if we didn't know.
Dita Von Teese, pretty in plunging peach.
And actress Rosamund Pike. Who may be the only woman in history ever to have beeen in both a film based upon a Jane Austen novel, and another adapted from a video game.

If I wanted to depress the both of us, I'd point out that this song is 18 years old
But I don't, so I'll just say it's by Holly "gay as the day" Johnson, of--
This was his best post-Frankie Goes To Hollywood song, but I'm not sure it ever charted anywhere.
The house mix by Julian Mendelsohn was even better. Mendelsohn remixed and/or produced many records for and with Pet Shop Boys; there's an obvious resemblance to PSB in this video and song.
The Pets are my favorites and Frankie didn't have enough good songs to fill a best-of (IMO). But I think it's important to remember Frankie pre-dated PSB musically and Neil & Chris were hardly the first Britishers to wear that hat and suit...
Relax don't do it (love)--fame.

Quick question to my RF-B peeps...how many of you saw this and didn't know I was going to use it?

I've got nothing snarky to say about this one, it's just neat.

Just put up two new reviews at Amazon:
Heather Thomas' book, Trophies
And former commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez's memoir, Wiser in Battle.
My reading tastes are nothing if not catholic.
