For this Cat Blog Friday...

...a hanging upside down kitty.

Happy Friday, everybody!

Rosie Inversion

Bats hang upside down...



Squirrels hang upside down...



And now large, foul-mouthed bloviators do it too...

Rosie O'Donnell says she hangs upside down for up to a half hour a day to improve her mental state.

You just can't make up this stuff.

Republicans Beware

Ann Coulter has an excellent piece today: Shooting Elephants In A Barrell.

Coulter writes, "Everything is illegal, but only Republicans get prosecuted." As always, she provides many examples that prove her point... some you might not know.

It's worth reading.

Trial Run

Wired Iraqi Man Triggers Scare At L.A. Airport

A moslem wearing wires and concealing a magnet inside his rectum trying to get on a plane and officials said he posed no apparent threat?

D'OH!

Wake up, America!

Boozeball

Did Chris Matthews, host of Hardball, have a stroke or did he start celebrating St. Patrick's day two weeks too soon?

He is s**t-faced!

Defenestration?

Russian Journalist Dies in Fall From Window

Ivan Safronov, the military affairs writer for Kommersant, died Friday after falling from a fifth-story window in the stairwell of his apartment building in Moscow, officials said.

Hmmm, banana peel? I think not.

This latest incident makes fourteen journalists that have died under mysterious circumstances during Putin's reign. The New Yorker had an excellent piece on the subject in January. Be warned, it's long, but fascinating.

Why are Vladimir Putin’s Opponents Dying?

This is totalitarian repression of the press. It would behoove our journalists to remember that when they write their hit pieces about the "repression of free speech" by the Bush White House.

Hillary Belle

Kentucky Fried Hillary: NY Senator Adopts A Southern Drawl In Selma, Alabama Church Service

You have to hear this to believe it!

Ya'll, I think I need a mint julep to deal with this.

Gay Aspersion At Conservative Conference Draws Flak

Everybody knows that people have the Constitutionally-protected right to say unspeakable things about America, conservatives, the Catholic Church, assassination attempts on the President and the Vice-President...

Heaven forbid a conservative pundit like Ann Coulter makes the mistake of thinking she has the same freedom of speech rights.

In my opinion, it was an unfortunate choice of words. It would've been funnier had Ann used the word 'pansy', or 'fairy', or 'fancy boy', or 'wand-waving Tinkerbell'...

Or Laura Ingraham's favorite, 'Silky Pony'...

Or Rush's favorite, 'Breck Girl'...

But those words don't land you into rehab... yet!

Blue Burqa Band

I had trouble embedding it here, but you can go to Blue Burqa Band for the video.

I don't know if it's a parody or if it's serious, but I thought it was a hoot. And it may be the future of Michael Jackson's entertainment career ;-)

Catch this one or wait until 2025...

Real Heroes

The Real American Idol: Why The New York Times Buried Maj. Bruce Crandall's Medal Of Honor On Page 15 from WSJ.com.

Dennis Henninger's points out that the MSM is not celebrating the warrior ethos the way it used to in the past...at our own peril.

I agree. Thank goodness there are alternative media sources that do tout the valor of our real heroes.

My one complaint is that Mr. Henninger misspelled the first name of Sgt. Leigh Ann Hester , the first woman to receive the Silver Star since World War II.

Stop Her Now

I ran across this great anti-Hillary site Stop Her Now.com . It's chock full of news & funny bits like this joke:

A man walked into a very high-tech bar. As he sat down on a stool he noticed that the bartender was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and asked, "Sir, what will you have?"

The man thought a moment then replied, "a martini please."

The robot clicked a couple of times and mixed the best Martini the man had ever had.

The robot then asked, "Sir, what is your IQ?"

The man answered "Oh, about 164."

The robot then proceeded to discuss the 'theory of Relativity, inter-stellar space travel, the latest medical breakthroughs, etc...

The man was most impressed. He left the bar but thought he would try a different tact. He returned and took a seat. Again the robot clicked and asked what he would have? "A martini please."

Again it was superb. The robot again asked "What is Your IQ sir?"

This time the man answered, "Oh about 100". So the Robot started discussing NASCAR racing, the latest basketball scores, and what to expect the Dodgers to do this week end.

The guy had to try it one more time. So he left, returned and took a stool....again a martini, and the question, "What is your IQ?" This time the man drawled out " Uh.....bout 50".

The robot clicked then leaned close and very slowly asked,

"A-r-e...Y-o-u-r...P-e-o-p-l-e...G-o-i-n-g...T-o...N-o-m-i-n-a-t-e...H-i -l-l-a-r-y-?????

Wacko Jacko

I've been hearing reports that Michael Jackson is converting to Islam...

According to www.adherents.com he formally joined the Nation of Islam on Dec. 17, 2003.

Is there no end to the weirdness?

Charity Oversight

Clintons' Charity Not Listed On Senate Disclosure Forms

Did you know that Hill, Bill, and Chelsea have operated a family charity since 2001, and that Hill has failed to list it on annual Senate financial disclosure reports on five occasions?

Oversight?

Clerical Error?

Yeah, right... it can happen to anyone.

OZ Loves Cheney

Supporters of US Vice President Dick Cheney hold a banner outside the hotel where he delivered his Australian American Leadership Dialogue in Sydney. Cheney met with Australian Prime Minister John Howard, one of Washington's staunchest allies, for talks likely to focus on troop deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan.

How refreshing.

Let's make our own banner:

The world needs great men like John Howard. We love Australia.

Blue Brain

***Your Brain is Blue***

Of all the brain types, yours is the most mellow.

You tend to be in a meditative state most of the time. You don't try to think away your troubles.

Your thoughts are realistic, fresh, and honest. You truly see things as how they are.

You tend to spend a lot of time thinking about your friends, your surroundings, and your life.

What Color Is Your Brain?

Who thinks up these silly Internet tests?

Cat Blog Friday

For this Cat Blog Friday...

... Extra the polydactyl cat. She has seven toes on each front paw and six toes on each back paw for a total of 26!

Yikes, imagine if this catches on. Cats with opposable thumbs will take over the world... or at the very least, they'll open their own cans! ;-)

Happy Friday, everybody!

Dems Feud

Clinton, Obama Camps' Feud Is Out In The Open

I'm just sitting back and enjoying this, aren't you?

Obamarama

Thomas Sowell's columns, always a good read, says it all in this NRO.com piece:

Barack Obama, Control Freak:
Fresh Face, Same Old Fallacies.

Here's a clip:

"All this is the old liberal agenda from years past, old wine in new bottles, a new face with old ideas that have been tried and failed repeatedly over the past generation".

I don't want to live in Obamanation, do you?

Revolving Door Rehab

Britney Spears Leaves Rehab Again! .

Honestly, this girl needs therapy before she becomes the next young blonde bimbo whose tragic death takes over the 24 hour news cycle.

Heroes & Coward

Alicia Colon's excellent piece in the NY SUN Heroes & Cowards is worth reading. I hate to say, "It's a must read," but it really is...

Here's a clip:

"The total military dead in the Iraq war between 2003 and this month stands at about 3,133. This is tragic, as are all deaths due to war, and we are facing a cowardly enemy unlike any other in our past that hides behind innocent citizens. Each death is blazoned in the headlines of newspapers and Internet sites. What is never compared is the number of military deaths during the Clinton administration: 1,245 in 1993; 1,109 in 1994; 1,055 in 1995; 1,008 in 1996. That's 4,417 deaths in peacetime but, of course, who's counting?"

Pray for our brave troops because the cowards are in charge of the pursestrings.

Monday Blues Buster

Don't you wish you could have a Clutter Fairy?

Congressional Cowardice

Ralph Peters doesn't pull any punches in his piece in the NY Post ... COWARDS GIVE UP ON GIS - & GIVE IN TO EVIL .

Here's a clip:

"The 'nonbinding resolution' telling the world that we intend to surrender to terrorism and abandon Iraq may be the most disgraceful congressional action since the Democratic Party united to defend slavery."

Disgraceful is one word for it.
