Barack Obama's birthday is in two days.
Was he presumptuous in telling the Urban League "Thank You"? You know, his birthday isn't actually here yet. Just thought that might be a sign of arrogance to say thank you.

25. My birthday is on Monday too! Obama was born on my third birthday.
Other notables (besides Louis Armstrong) include:

The Queen Mother
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Richard Belzer
Roger Clemens
Jeff Gordon
Billy Bob Thornton
My cousin
My favorite teacher in high school.

Good thing I don't send cards to all of them!

Richard Belzer: Regrets: I Have a Few

"Richard Belzer: Regrets: I Have a Few"

Posted August 2, 2008 | 12:21 PM (EST)


"I'm going to strip the bark off that little bastard and make Willie Horton his running mate!" So said Lee Atwater about Governor Michael Dukakis during the 1988 presidential campaign. Atwater, was Bush Sr.'s manager, and is legendary among the loathsome bottom-feeders of right-wing attack politics. On his deathbed, however, Atwater expressed deep remorse for his vile ways and was particularly ashamed and most deeply regretful over his treatment of Governor Dukakis. One hopes, most likely in vain, that this epiphany of regret would be an object lesson to others. But, alas there are those who have completely ignored any lessons to be gleamed from Atwater's dying wishes. Their worship stops short of the final chapter of their hero's sorry saga.

Head goon at Fox Fake News, Roger Ailes, and fugitive slime king Karl Rove are the heirs to this spiritually bankrupt intellectually fraudulent style of political discourse. It is depressingly clear that the corporate media has been co-opted, polluted, and all too willingly become the dance partner of these soulless ghouls.

Soon, I hope, this despicable demonization of presidential candidate Mr. Barack Obama will, like a giant filthy finger down the throat of America, force us all (particularly the so-called mainstream media) to once and for all regurgitate these sulfurous impurities in our once sacred body politic."
