Read my lips, no new taxes: We read George H W Bush's lips when he said that as a campaign promise in 1988. He broke the promise and Bill Clinton rode that pony to the White House. The difference now is that Americans want to tax the rich. The Republican's greed thankfully make them really stupid. Look at Rupert Murdoch.

"It's all Katie Couric's fault, oh, and yeah, the lame stream media."
Sarah Palin, when asked by Katie Couric what newspapers and magazines she reads, said "'all of them". So surely the hockey mom and former Vice Presidential candidate knows of a positive review "The Undefeated" has scored, but film review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes can't. As of Monday afternoon, the bio-pic about Palin has scored a humiliating 0% among critics. Rock-The-Voter News Healthcare Provider Profits

OMG! Only $100 to go!
Wow, I went to my mailbox yesterday and found five donations which thankfully rid my mailbox of the spider webs that had gathered there!
Thank you to my monthly loyal subscriber Ellie and Dennis and Julie who always send positive thoughts and checks that don't bounce, and Kim from San Fran who was thanking me--- "Laughter is one of the best things to make one feel better and you have given thousands of us a great gift."...and Lou from WA who was generous with his money but short on words, "Keep up the good work!" And saddest of all, "Hi Lisa, sorry I couldn't get you this sooner but the foreclosure hit and we are moving now. No prayers from me, but, May the best in medicine find its way to you! Get well. Brian" Deep sigh and many hugs to all helping each other as best as we can.
