Hillary Wins Florida!!!

So Rudy is out, McCain wins, and now John Edwards is dropping out. I like him because I think he was a balance for Obama and Clinton, so I wish him the best.

So this is great news with a great day, of course I knew yesterday I was just too lazy to post, and none of us should be working. Let's take the day off.

Great job Hillary!

Colorado says no to Abstinance Only Ed

Colorado's Concord Monitor reported on January 8, 2007 that Colorado is going to pass up on money from the federal government that would require the school districts to teach abstinance only. This is a great thing because abstinance only education has proven to be ineffective and therefore, in my opinion, a waste of money.

Before you go there, kids shouldn't be having sex, but the truth is they do so we need to give them the necessary tools to protect themselves from STDs/STIs and pregnancy.

"There are clearly a group of adolescents who are sexually active," said Ned Calonge, chief medical officer for the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. "Abstinence is the best way to avoid teen pregnancy, but that isn't to say that abstinence-only education has shown to be effective."

The state, according to Calonge, will be passing on $488,000 bribe money from the feds.

Great job Colorado!!! Now if only we could get Perry and the other Looneys at the legislature to think.

Under Barack Obama, bama, bama, ei ei ei ei

Obama won South Carolina while Hillary comes in 2nd and Edwards comes in 3rd. John Edwards you're a great guy and a good candidate but I don't think you'll be winning this one. Now they are off to Tennessee and we'll see how this one turns out.

Here are some of he stats:

"Nearly complete returns showed Obama winning 55 percent of the vote, Clinton gaining 27 percent. Edwards had 18 percent and won only his home county of Oconee.

Obama also gained 25 convention delegates, Clinton won 12 and Edwards eight.

Overall, Clinton has 249 delegates, followed by Obama with 167 and Edwards with 58.

Obama also gained an endorsement from Caroline Kennedy, who likened the Illinois senator to her late father, President John F. Kennedy."

Hillary is still my girl and hope we can get her on top again.

I'm sorry, but I don't think anyone can compare to JFK. Obama is a good speaker, but no JFK.

Oh, enjoy this video from MadTV. Under Barack Obama, bama, bama, ei ei ei ei ei ei. I love it.

The Call is Coming from Inside the Romney

Yesterday I was sipping on my glass of wine watching Hairspray and reminiscing about the days of yore when I could sing, dance, and kick like no-one else's business. Tear. When I hear my phone ringing and I run eagerly to get it since I had been stuck in the apartment all day long, mostly cause I didn't want to put shoes on. I excitedly answered and then I hear: "Hi, this is Mitt Romney and your friend..."

I said what the F^$%!!!

So I laughed, mostly cause the wine was good and then cause he asked me to join the cause and support him. Yeah, like I would support him.

Why don't you have Mitt call some of your loved ones.

Enjoy.

One more down

So I'm at work today 'til 5:15p and while the call volume is down I was reading the news and I found out that Kucinich is dropping out of the race. Yes. He has officially dropped out and has supported Obama for president. Why? I don't know. Maybe 'cause he's afraid of a woman with power.

Go Hillary!!!!

No, not being biased, Hillary, or telling you to vote for anyone speciffically, Hillary, but I don't know if Kucinich falling behind Obama, Hillary, will create a huge number of people to vote for Obama (Hillary), unless huge=five.

I am sad for a certain Texas Legislator who religiously supports Kucinich.

Better luck next time.

Text Message Loving

So, Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his Chief of Staff Christine Beatty were texting each other love notes.

This was found out after an investigantion over testimony that they gave on a police whistle blower investigation. So here is some of the conversation:

Mayor: I love you baby.
COF: Where are we?

Oh wait, that was Pamela and Tommy. Well, I'm assuming this was city phones and pagers. Who had pagers in 2003? So, why don't people understand? If you're gonna screw someone that works with you and you work for the city, state or county, don't use city, state, or county property. Duh!

So now people are asking for him to resign. I wondered what his wife is saying.

Wife: What are you doing with this cootie queen?
COF: Who are you calling a cootie queen? You lint licker.

Yes they were chewing on Orbit gum. Dirty mouth?

Maybe he should call Chuck Rosenthal and they should trade secrets.
