Congratulations go to Kim Kardashian...
... who received a $2 million dollar engagement ring from fiancé Kris Humphries this week. I want to be happy for the couple, but I can’t help noticing…Is it me or does Humphries look like he and killer of actress Rebecca Schaeffer, John Robert Bardo, were separated at birth? Creepy, huh?
I’ve never trusted a guy with a low-brow. On the other hand, a $2 million dollar ring? I might take my chances.

This week’s Steaming Pile of Shit Award…
… goes to heartless Republican dick Eric Cantor for saying he would not approve disaster relief funds for tornado-devastated areas in the mid-west unless they were tied to spending cuts elsewhere. Some members of his own party were even surprised by this: Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho) said, "If you can find offsets, great. If you can't, you can't," he said. "That's what an emergency is, by definition."
Rep. Jo Ann Emerson (R-Mo.), with parts of her district under 12 feet of water as a result of flooding said, "It makes me sad" that some Republicans are insisting on offsets for natural disaster of this scale, and in the case of Cantor, "I was disappointed. I need to take him to my district."
The irony: A lot of the same people in this deeply red area of the country voted Eric Cantor and his GOP pals into the position where they can deny them the help they so desperately need now.

Meanwhile the party of slash-and-burn still has its machetes out for Medicare…
... which is not going over well with the folks back home as evidenced by the surprise win this week of Democrat Kathy Hochul over Republican Jane Corwin in a traditional GOP stronghold district in New York
You don’t want to be messin’ with seniors. We’re cranky.
