I have to wonder if the religious right really hasn't gone too far. Even Howard Stern has spoken out against Bush recently, saying "I think this guy is a religious fanatic and a Jesus freak, and he is just hell-bent on getting some sort of bizzaro agenda" pushed though Congress. Howard Stern, people. Not that I'm a fan, but I am amused at the notion of Howard's loyal listeners being provoked into voting against Bush-Cheney in November. Amusing.

The Crack Monkeys are circling my head today, their leathery wings flapping in the night. They would like nothing better than if I ran screaming through the corporate offices and upturned the CEOs desk, then perched in the window to fling poo at him. They're funny that way. They've been so veryvery good lately, that they deserve a chance to cause some mayhem. So tempting.

Tru Calling is lame, but Eliza Dushku's cuteness is enough for me to watch it. Does that make me shallow? Didn't think so.

Stern is responding to the right-wing censorship vibe that is clearly going to come down the pipes as the neocons continue to build their power base. Despite their alliances with anti-government, anti-tax, pro-gun libertarians, the current regime will not support libertarians any more than it will support liberals. The current mantra is that property rights are the key right of liberty-- not free expression, not free assembly, not justice, not privacy. Property. So far, this has pleased the libertarians, but once they realize that the current regime also believes in intervening to protect the property of haves (especially legal entities such as corporations which should not be considered as having human rights) in opposition to free markets and individual liberty, then I think the libertarians of this country will see how dangerous an ally they had made.

Hmm. I would criticize you, but then I realize how many times I have watched something because Salma Hayek was on-screen, and I have to back down. Not to mention all the times gratuitous butt and thigh have stopped me from surfing past Sabado Gigante and I have to really shut my mouth.

Which is exactly why Howard's current anti-Bush spree pleases me. Here is a guy who's the mouthpiece/ringleader of a sizeable chunk of libertarian-leaning people. If he's catching on to the Right Wing Agenda and yakking about it, a lot of folks may be swayed to vote against Bush. Like him or not, Howard has a fair amount of influence with a segment of the population. If he gets them to vote with us it can only be beneficial.

I'm just giggling that he's pimping Al Franken's book on air. Cracks. Me. Up.
