Monday Blog O Dome

It's been a long since I've done a Blog O Dome, so I figured I'd do one today, especially with everything that has happened this past weekend.

Mike Huckabee, not only pardons a serial rapist he gets his son off for doing his best Michael Vick impersonation. Sorry, if you can't even raise your children to know this is wrong you have no business leading a nation scooter.

Today is the day that Senator Chris Dodd is filibustering the FISA bill on the Senate floor and he needs your ideas for what to read. At least there is one Presidential candidate doing the right thing instead of campaigning.

John Edwards continues to be the only major candidate for President who wants to fight, well, everyone. I look forward to when he goes all Tyler Durden on us.

More on what Obama and Clinton said they would be doing today, and yet they are no where to be seen. They are "politicians", Dodd and Edwards appear to be people who genuinely want to help this country.

Glenn Greenwald is back again with news that the Jewish folks in the media don't actually speak for the majority of Jews in this country.

Wikileaks continues to pimp slap the government this time in proving their online image repair attempt. I'm shocked that the government and or the Republican Party hasn't started paying large buildings of people to control the message online, they're already doing it on TV with Fox News.

Rep Steve King (Asshat-Iowa) attacked one of the nine Democrats who did not vote on the resolution to give Christians and Christmas a hummer. Nice rebuttal by Rep Jim McDermott (D-WA) on what the true mission of Congress should be.

The man who would be a better Speaker of the House Rep. Wexler asked for people to sign his petition to begin impeachment proceedings against Darth Cheney. He was hoping for 50,000 and he got it, in less then 24 hours.

Though no longer Press Secretary, Tony Snow continues the message of the President and Fox News informing us how the second war in America is the War on God. Really, then consider me Lord Asreil if it is you and your people's interpretation of who and what "God" is.

Finally we are going to end today with CREW's Top Ten Ethics Scandals of 2007. Honestly I don't know which one pisses me off more, though most immediate damaging one has to be FEMA and their trailers.

Chris F'N Dodd

You have to give it to Dodd, he's definitely swinging for the fences.

Hi I’m Chris Dodd.

I’m from East Haddam, Connecticut.

And my family and I are spending a little time in Iowa these days.

I have a question about the Constitution. Many Americans are concerned that the Administration seems to be making a false choice. That is to be safer we have to give up rights. I don’t believe that, I wonder if you do. And if you believe we aught not to give up our rights, what would you do in order to protect our Constitution?

I bet you ever single candidate on the left right now is cursing themselves for not being the first one to do this. I wonder who it will be who will submit their own question. Is there any doubt that it will be Joe Biden?

The Talk Clock

This is a lil item that the Chris Dodd campaign came up with for the various debates and this is last night's times for the debate. Sadly former Senator and everyone's favorite crazy old man, Mike Gravel, was not invited to the debate. Debate organizers excluded former Sen. Mike Gravel of Alaska on grounds that he did not meet fundraising and polling thresholds.

Right, you hate the fact that this old man calls you out for giving the front runners more time, in some case 3 times more time, then the rest of the candidates. Chris Dodd is quickly moving up my list of men who need to be considered for the Vice Presidential nomination. I think the man is starting to show a backbone in this election, and in Congress.

At least one of these politicians are evolving.

Weds Wrap Around

He may not win, but Senator Chris Dodd is definitely influencing this Presidential Race. We need more men like him in Congress who aren't afraid to say no to corporations.

Why can't you lose your Congressional seat when you spout such idiotic nonsense? I wonder how he would feel if he was swept off to Egypt by mistake.

Dubya visited National Defense University and ran off at the mouth how torture has prevented "terrorist attacks". Don't let this dumbass watch Star Wars, he'll torture George Lucas to know where the Death Star is.

You got to love Christians' fall back plan, always claim you're being persecuted to deflect any real argument. The difference between various science theories and "Intelligent Design" is that scientific theories actually have some evidence, not just some book.

Am I the only one who misses the days when fighting to restore Fourth Amendment rights was not considered traitorous by some? I mean really, giving us back our Constitutional rights helps Osama is the best argument you can come up with? Get bent.

Grady Jackson is now a free agent and some fans are already clamoring to get him on their team. Yes, if the Browns are to be competitive this year we need a nose guard the likes of Jackson to stop the run game.

Finally, we end with Straight Cash Homey's random jersey of the day, Jose Canseco as a memember of....
