Can this marriage be saved?

I’m going to bat and I’m using the Defense of Marriage Act as my weapon of choice.

The Bush Administration has to stay together! The Republicans keep fighting to make it harder to get out (or in) of a union, so why not apply that stringency to their own alliance? Why can’t we force the team that’s now got a 33% approval ratings to stick it out? Why are we letting Scott McClelland just cut bait and run? Why not put Brownie back on the dole?

The White House shake-up is ruining the lives of millions (or already has….); think of the children! How many kids are straddling that thin line between life and death; worried about what their two daddy’s and one mommy are going to do (talk about Big Love!)? No fears troops, Pops Rumsfeld and Ma Rice are still hanging with the main “W” homey! For now…

Donny Rumsfeld should be moved in to shore up the press and keep an eye on just who gets journalist credentials. What’s up with Paula Abdul going all postal on Bush and Hu Jintao at the big Chinese greeting yesterday? She had to be off her meds to mistake them stiff suits for Randy and Simon! She sure looked crazy and sounded like she was speaking in tongues; see what working next to Simon can do to you!

Oh, for extra credit, could Laura (or Jenna or Barbara just for kicks) please explain the difference between Taiwan and China to someone at the White House before the next egg roll on the front lawn?

Anyhow, these Republican’s need to keep it together…it’s so much easier to hit a moving (faltering?) target when it’s bigger!

on my radar: katie!

Katie Couric is everywhere.

The Homeland Security head even debated raising the threat level to a red at the announcement of Katie’s departure from NBC. “Initial fears that Bryant Gumbel would return to replace her made us briefly consider bringing out the National Guard”, Chertoff was quoted.

In related news, Iran has confirmed it’s capabilities of creating low-grade nuclear energy. Their minister of defense claims that (Iran) is acting within its rights as a sovereign nation to protect itself against the perceived threats from the influences of western culture, namely, Katie Couric. “If you (the US) can’t contain her to early morning TV, why should Iran have to fear for its nightly news?” the Ayatollah asked.

And in other related news, sadly, the White House continues to claim “it never saw this coming, and we know wire tapping!”
