There’s a new gal in town…
While Lynda Carter’s “Wonder Woman” came off kind of like the girl next door with just a little something extra, Adrianne Palicki’s version of the super heroine seems downright menacing. But I guess tougher times call for tougher ladies.
Still, I’d pick Lynda if I was in trouble. Not only would she save me from the bad guy, but she’s someone I’d like to go out for lunch and some shopping with afterwards.

In a poll pitting him against President Obama or Sarah Palin, Republicans favor Charlie 37-28 over the President, while Democrats give him a 44-24 edge over Palin.
Well, you gotta admit, it would liven up the Lincoln

Look who else is hopping on the GOP presidential crazy train…
When asked this week if it was fair that corporations like ExxonMobil, Bank of America and Arch Coal, while making millions in net profits, have not paid a dime in federal income taxes in recent years, Newt Gingrich defended their use of tax loopholes, calling them a good thing because, after all, their employees pay taxes.
In 2009, Arch Coal made a direct donation of $100,000 to Gingrich’s political committee, American Solutions for Winning the Future. Well, at least we know whose future Gingrich is working for.
Charlie’s looking better and better, isn’t he?

Having an abortion, ladies? Be sure and keep that receipt…
If the Republicans – the party of smaller government – the party of “keep your hands off my health care” – have their way, the IRS will be their new abortion cops.
In an attempt to extend the reach of their “No Taxpayer Funding For Abortion” act, a woman who pays for an abortion out of her Health Care IRA, from medical insurance that covers the procedure or claims a medical credit or deduction would be in violation of the law forbidding such use. If audited, the burden of proof would be on her to provide documentation that her abortion fell under the rape/incest, life-of-the-mother exception or that her health insurance did not cover abortions.
Don’t blame me. I didn’t vote for these assholes.

Giving a whole new meaning to the term "potty mouth..."

Virgin Airlines cancelled their order for their lounge at JFK airport after receiving numerous complaints that the urinals were degrading to women.
I say if it doesn’t bother Mick Jagger, it doesn’t bother me. What do you say? Just a gag or a gag-reflex?

Finally, this is especially for my friend Nicky at We Work For Cheese. She’ll understand…
