It's Friday, and While Searching for Buddha On My Toast....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I am sitting here eating my morning goodies, still searching for Buddha on my toast, and sipping Coffee ( screw the reflux)...and has anyone else noticed that this was a pretty overwhelming week ?Last Friday I blogged it felt like the Fifties...that post could now not be more true.Dean Wormer commented that I write "peaceful feel good by the Beach" kind of posts....well, NOT today.
Let's review, Bush gets drunk on Worldwide TV, please do see the photos below, and yes, does the Olympics drunk, meanwhile Georgia ( via McMaverickMeddling and Condazleeza's July Visit and Bush's Babblings ) provokes a "Confrontation" with Russia, this feeds the neocons Cold War wet dreams. ( So far that was just the FIRST 48 hours of Obama's "Exotic" vacation HOME to visit his Grandmother.)Yet the Cottoncandiedbrained Punditheads act like he is on a "foreign island" dining on Mahi Mahi and drinking Mai Tais...Hawaii is a godamned STATE of the United States of America, and has been since the damn 50's. And during the Godblessedness of Ain't we all American, Johnny McMaverick stages a Rocky Moment for 2000 people crammed in an Air hanger and gives speechs "HOW we are all Georgians".....
THEN we have the Edwards Mess, all of us are TRYING to be so polite and understanding while being totally confused.....Edwards admits/confesses ( aka lies AGAIN ) to Woodruff on Nightline that yes he did indeed have An Affair. Unfortunately it hit the mid-day airwaves. John was hoping that the Olympics would ecclipse his moment of "admission".....And then just like clockwork, Rush Limpall came out and attacked Elizabeth in a Cruel Demoralizing Disgusting Should be Fired Way.And it has been noted that Mr.Wayward Edwards has not said a word to defend his wife from the Atacks of this Cretin. And all of us are sitting there shaking our head also realizing that he even lied while Explaing about the LIES. And Wondering HOW we were duped by this Malignantly Narcisstic Egotistical Man that probally had an affair ( and not the one night stand kind) while Elizabeth was battling Cancer ? And he indeed might have spent the PAC money to create the damned fictious "video job" for the trollup. As far as I am concerned he can now go join the Rethuglican Party.....He's more than qualified now that he "loved" his cancer stricken wife so much he Embedded his Video Mistress...and lied to EVERYONE about it.
{The Viagra Moral of this BreckBoy Tale- if a Grown Man of fifty something is spending 400 dollars on a haircut, they are screwing Someone....and I have a hunch that 500 dollar loafers are also indicative of Extramarital Activities as well...]
Sigh...
Then we have the Clintons ( who at this point remind me of the fungal mold that keeps coming back in my shower)....who now have officially wormed,weaseled, hook or by crook scored Golden Moments at the Denver Convention....because Hillary wants "Catharisis". I am so sick of their Drama humping shenigans I could spit from here to Denver......and yes, I have Nothing Nice to say.
And yes....people Wonder WHY I am watching the Olympics....

IF Dorothy were here she would say, also DO go read Maria-Maria's post about Bush's Fine Boxer Moments....it will help...Promise.....and then you MUST read Bruce Blog's PUMA Analysis- it will Sooth your Soul (okay you will laugh your head off- turns out it was a BAD Week in the PUMA Kingdom....)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And now for a Musical Interlude dedicated to this insane week, and yes, 6-6 has discovered "Heart"...."Crazy on You "...He is the same age I was when I heard the Wilson Sisters for the very first time....Nice when you can share music with your teenagers...and listen to their cryptic yet accurate comments about the Clothes of that era.....sigh...Have a good day.....

wow, great post!! This HAS been an insane week to end all insane weeks. What the hell? The shrub was publically intoxicated? Man he really doesn't care anymore, does he? Except about his "legacy" that is... sheesh.
Well, considering there are indeed photos showing his Backwards Flag Moment and his Fall in the Stands...and then his fannyslapping moment on the Volley Ball court...and he is REPRESENATING OUR Country...and people wonder why I am examining OTHER countries....
Hmm, his Legacy- Jack Daniels Endorsements ? while sitting in Gitmo for War Crimes ?
yeah..hey ..a girl's gotta dream..
sheesh....
"Heart" is balm for the soul.
I love the passion with which you express your world.
This life, this week, this world can often feel surreal. We have to take breaks sometimes to experience the beauty...there is so much that can feel disappointing in the world of politics. Right now I am going out to swim!!
MariaMaria_
have a good swim ;-)
....for the most part I am a mellow person ( yeah really)....but this week has been soooo strange....and every now and then you have to just vent..and I don't do it here very often....but this week kinda took the cake...
there is nowhere to swim nearby....I wish,.....I guess that is why I have been watching Phelps all week...watching the water and the movement has been really amazing....
So Swim lady..I will be here monitoring the insanity....and making brownies...cuz it's friday...
maria had a good post about Bush an McCain! My comment: Well, Well, well! an Unnamed Girlfriend describes running around the Governor's mansion on these evenings with her friends and the Bush Twins, while Bush sat - seemingly inebriated - on the living room sofa in nothing but his boxers and an open robe, shouting hellos to the young girls (we're talking 9th and 10th graders here.)
I refuse to understand why crap like this never came to light? Why his families connections never came to light? Why Grampy Prescott was never Imprisoned?
Oh yeah! I saw a video on someones post showing Bush while daddy was President and being interviewed. He was drunk and stupid. Why did the fool happen?
Here we go again! Why it was never revealed that his North Vietnamese captors supplied him with hookers? Gave him favors? His refusal to testify against them? His collaboration? And yes his first wife?
Clinton, Edwards, my opinion of Politicians is not even sewer level!
Annie Wilson is a God.
What a voice.
Well, thank you for summing it up so perfectly. Now I can go on napping and bleeting over my thrift store finds. Sorry you had to be the one to face this week alone. My head has been under the covers trying not to see or hear, much less speak the crap that's going on in my head over all the afore mentioned bullshittery. Buahhhh. This is what happens when you elect a president who lost his moral compass when he was three and never found it.
Utah:::
wehlp, you are more than welcome...we all survived this week...and that is ALL that matters...So sorry about your head....it will be over soon...so hang in there..and at this rate- you might have to make room for us under the covers- I will bring a bag of oreos- okay? Bush was busy exploding toads when he should have been finding a moral compass....
( if ever left alone in a room with Babs I would have a serious Chat with her about her suckwind Mothering skills...jus sayin')
Chris::
She is and was a Goddess....always...( the wilson sisters are really good people too-boot- they were friends with one of my patients back in Seattle back in the early 90's - and they used to call him on the phone- and yes, they sound Exactly like themselves on the phone....yup...really good people).
Patriot;:
well, your comment alone was worth a post- you should write that up..excellent points- and yeah, I told people to go read Maria's post...
enigma- your passion and the way you express your views are great. Don't ever change!! Thanks for all the support. It's Friday, the work week is over...yeah!
Great recap of a crazy week! holy hell, it really feels like the shit curtain dropped down on the stage, doesn't it?
only one topic among many: to think I once posted that Edwards passed my moral test! of course my moral test was about how he would attack poverty and other social ills, but ... now I just feel used, betrayed & disappointed.
So, where's my Buddha Toast? hahahah, you nailed it!
DK:::
yeah ,and to think that I sent him money for his Poverty Program- ONE America- and it was being used to EmBed the ViDeo-grapher- I am pissed- I think all of us should be ..Son-of-Breck-Beautyass....
sigh...BIG sigh....there are not enough brownies....want some toast ? ( and yeah, there is no Buddha in it...as 6-6 says' Everyone knows that Buddha is hiding in the Donut Holes- that is why NO One ever sees him....)
Maria- maria:
ahhhh thanks..nice to know that when my head explodes you will be one of the ones admiring the mess- saying -"see that is what passion really looks like" ....LOL....thank you- seriously....but we are really living through strange times..and I just have to sit and ask WHY..What the Hell? Don't you wish Monty Python was still on? sigh....
I loved the Boxer Bush post- I told folks to come and read it- seriously it made Everything so much better somehow ;-)
( BTW Austin person that you are - you do know Blueberry and Ingrid- right? you all need get together- seriously...)
One hell of a round up to one fucking crazy week. Can we top it next week? I agree on the Clinton point. What the hell is she doing?!?
Bradda:::
well, See I Have a Theory- this is National Narcisstic Week- and so therefore of course the Clintons Did indeed have to get the Spotlight This week....yup...She wants her "catharsis"....yup...or as someone so aptly put over at Chris's....they are quite simply 'Media Whores"....
hmmm, wonder how much is a rail pass to Canada ?....
Hang in there brother..hang in there....
P.S. I LOVE HEART and THANKS for the video!
OMG, I use FireFox and now it won't let me hear video or YouTube... so I'm in Safari now. Anyone else having this problem??
AND HAPPY FRIED DAY!!
Helen Dear-
Firefox has been fucked all week...I finally had to disable them..people have been disabling or reloading them all week...
Me I gave up them...am JUST Safari now...sorry ....( I am posting Cat Stevens tonight...so we gotta get you fixed...)
yup...HAPPY FRIED DAY !!!!
Good to know. Goddamned Firefox! All my stuff's in there... ugh...
And Safari wouldn't open your "comment" link. I had to right-click & choose open. Grrrr...
urgh...sorry helen..it seems like the NEW Firefox- this latest edition is NOT compatible with Safari- or anything....so I had to disable it....the firefox that is...)
and am back to basic safari ( and I mean I deleted and threw it out- had to...)
SHOOT I hope I don't have to do that. Annoying!
I spent last weekend fixing stupid new Outlook/AT&T related problems... I don't want any more of that.
"Then we have the Clintons (who at this point remind me of the fungal mold that keeps coming back in my shower)...
ROFL! Me too. Fer gawdsake, someone spray some Tilex on them, quick!
Sorry Helen...hang in there..
Betty::
yup...tilex that should help....
( btw I put you in the roundup....below ;-0
I have an in depth analysis of the Georgia situation.
Bottom line is the US is bogged down in the Middle East, and Russia not being an empire is an anomaly.
Thanks Renegade-
I will be over ....I have a bunch of posts down below about McMcaverick and Bush should not have been prodding Georgia to recreate the Cold War....scroll down- most of wed and thursday posts/ and links are there...
And Poland.
Poland, a member of the European Union, says it's keen to have a missile shield.
Russia and the bully boys in the Kremlin, said today that Poland is not at "risk for a nuclear attack."
Let me repeat.
Russia and the bully boys in the Kremlin, said today that Poland is not at "risk for a nuclear attack."
This is some very dangerous rhetoric and the Bush junta is ill-prepared to deal with such a threat.
Christopher's just so damn handsome.
Chris::
Bush and Condi and McMaverick should never ever have been treading in these murky waters.....needling Russia- and offering "protection " to Poland and Georgia- and don't forget the Great Turd Blossum himself was over at the Black Sea Attending Conferences in July....this is a effin mess- created by Bush...AGAIN...
Leave it to Bush and Dick and Condi to create a Missile/Nuke quagmire before they hit their big vacation....there is a very special place in hell for these warmongers...
Dick:
and aren't you looking lovely in your little orange jumpysuit...please do scroll down I did post the Lumberack song just for you ;-)
Very well said - good sum-up of a bad week. Totally agree on Edwards.
And ROFL about the Clintons being like fungal mold in your shower! Too true!
Thanks Maui...
Now every time I see the Clintons I will think of Tilex....LOL....yeah....MrBreck..how dissappointing...Hopefully next week will be better -right?
Yes, thanks for the song. You're a sweetie. However, I have no speakers on my computer (it's 5 years old and they crapped out about 3 years ago), so I can't hear it. Sorry. Once again, I lose. But then, what else is new...
Dick::
I am so sorry...want me to come over and sing it to you :???
( nooooooo....I can not sing..maybe Hum...yup...I am a a Lumber jack ....)
well, you take care of your fine self in that fab orange jumpysuit...
enigma: Thanks for this lovely post. I feel so much better now. All week long I've sequestered myself in a darkened closet, rocking endlessly back and forth, humming over and over repetitions of "God Only Knows," and trying to remember what it was like before I lost my sanity.
1.) I live in an irrational world -- but I am perfectly sane.
2.) I live in a rational world -- hence, I am totally f*cking nuts.
Now, after reading your post and the comments of so many others, I realize I'm living in an irrational world...I'm perfectly sane!!
(Otherwise, I have lots and lots of company in the miseries of alternative #2 above. (Which is of some minor comfort, I suppose.)
Dada:::
omg i laughed my ass off...tooooo funny...and yes, otherwise there are alot of us in that closet with you.....f**king nuts does not even come close to this week , eh????lordy....
( I told Utah Savage I was coming there with a bag or oreos and hide under the covers....maybe we need to hide under the covers for a week....with a bag of oreos of course....)
No chance Limberger's getting fired, especially when he's saying precisely what his bosses paid him so much to say.
That the Georgia crisis comes so close to the convention makes us all think about wagging the dog. I'm really curious as to how Russia handles this. The cease fire was a good tactical move, but I have a feeling someone is going to make some hefty demands on them.
xdell::
I agree..yup...all the way round....sadly...
