Politics? Or Sexy Models!
This will be my last blog for a while. I’m moving and will have to wait a bit for the Internets connection. I’m so addicted to the Internets, how will I survive?!? (sigh) … I’ll be back up soon enough. Cable connection again. I was so in love with my high speed Roadrunner connection. I’m using DSL, but won’t name the provider, don’t want AT&T coming after me, and it is ridiculously slow and unreliable.
Should this blog continue to focus on politics?
My friend Dan thinks I should stop writing about politics. He thinks this blog would make more money if I wrote about other things. What I really think is he doesn’t agree with my political and social views and he’s just trying to stifle one more voice that is in opposition to the Regime of the Silly now occupying the White House. Dan will disagree strenuously, and we should have some animated and laughable debate over it!
But, politics provides the most interesting topics of discussion —
Well, I’d like to talk about Playboy models, past and present, ’cause then this page could be populated with lots of photos of nekkid and half-nekkid women … but there really wouldn’t be much for me to say, other than, “I get slathered every time I look at Nikki!”
For instance, as I type away, we’re waiting to hear that incoming Attorney General, Michael Mukasey, is confirmed by the U.S. Senate. This is the guy who claimed he didn’t know the specifics of water boarding to make any judgment on whether it was torture or not. Ya gotta be fuckin’ kidding me! And the Democrat-controlled Senate is going to confirm this moron? Or liar, whichever applies. ANYONE WHO HAS FOLLOWED THE NEWS — EVEN ON FOX! — HAVE HEARD THE DETAILS OF WATER BOARDING!
So, the Senate is about to confirm another liar for a most significant cabinet post. Jeez … when are these Democrats gonna grow some backbone? All the Republicans had to do was accuse the Democrats of trying to hold up the nomination to score political points and the Dems folded like a cheap suit. Just ten days ago they were talking tough on this nomination, based primarily on Mukasey’s rather unbelievable tale about not knowing the specifics of water boarding.
The closing refrain from the Talking Heads’ hit “Once in a Lifetime” runs through my head: “Same as it ever was …”
So, if in the future I doodle off into fantasyland writing about Playmates and other beautiful women, you should forgive me. Haven’t been disappointed with a Playmate yet … Well, maybe Anna Nicole Smith. She died way too young. And there are those who have found themselves under the glare of mug shot photo lighting. Actually, the police don’t use lights that glare ... err ... from what I’ve been told ...
Which reminds me: The final Playmate to be unclothed this year is Sasckya Porto. Now we have to sit and wonder who Hef will choose as his favorite for Playmate of the Year 2008. The Playmate of the Year, 2007, is Sara Jean Underwood, a Portland, Oregon native who first appeared in Playboy in October 2005 for a coeds special and on the cover of the same issue wearing nothing but paint. She was Playmate of the Month in July 2006.
My other favorites so far for Playmate of the Year 2008, besides Sasckya: (1)Miss February Heather Rene Smith. She’s a gymnast and displayed that talent in her portfolio! (2)Miss May Shannon James who was chosen Playmate on the Howard Stern program. Okay, I don’t listen to or watch Stern, but he made an excellent choice with Shannon! (3)Miss June Brittany Binger. She’s a surfer. Gotta consider the surfer! (4)Miss October Spencer Scott. She tried being a Playmate when she was 17. She’s 18 now! Gotta admire her moxy and she’s a devoteé of In-n-Out! But then I revisit Miss January’s portfolio, which would be Jayde Nicole. She has the word ”RESPECT” tattooed right above her lovely — and hairless — Mons Veneris. I couldn’t pick just one.
One of my favorite Playboy models, Jaime Hammer, is up for Penthouse Pet of the Year. Jaime was the Cyber Girl of the Month for September 2005 and appeared in many, many other Playboy Cyber Club and Playboy Special Editions magazines, but was then abruptly dropped from PEI’s roll of models. In stepped the Penthouse staff — who know a hot model when they see one! — and Jaime is Penthouse Pet of the Month for this month.
Problem is, one of my other favorite former Playboy models, Erica Campbell, was Penthouse Pet of the Month for April 2007. Erica was Cyber Girl of the Month for October 2006 and has appeared in many Playboy Cyber Club pictorials, but when she missed being chosen as Cyber Girl of the Year 2007 (that would be Breann McGregor!) that pretty much signaled the end of her Playboy career.
I’d vote for either one of them, but how to choose? Who to choose? What a dilemma.
This blog though was created to chat about politics primarily. The primary campaigns are in full swing and Rudy Giuliani and Hillary Clinton are the odds-on favorites for their respective parties. Giuliani for the Republicans and Clinton for the Democrats, for those who could possibly not know which is which.
Barack Obama has been taking swipes at Clinton and just today said she was too stuck in the ‘60’s to be effective at bringing the country together as president. Obama, Obama! Nearly half the voters are baby-boomers, meaning you pretty much told this large block of voters their generation is too old to matter. The New York Senator is 60 and her Illinois colleague is 46.
Trouble is, Obama has started listening to the people, some of whom are his advisors, telling him to go negative on Senator Clinton. The young Senator from Ill-annoy-us is trailing Senator Clinton by … just checking … 23 fucking points!?!?!
Jeez dude, yer toast.
But Senator Obama, at the beginning of this campaign you said you would be different, promoting a positive message instead of the politics-as-usual political campaign of attacking your opponents; that you would usher in a new generation of politicians not mired in the type of politics that has split our country asunder.
Apparently his idealistic strategy isn’t working. The idealism is refreshing though, maybe he should stick with it. He really is different with that positive message and the young voters, the “You Tube” and “MySpace” generation, really like him. Trouble is, that age demographic has always been largely a no-show at the polls so depending on them for support on the days it matters most — the primaries — is risky business, especially in the key state of Iowa.
Saying she’s stuck in the ‘60’s is kind of a lame attack anyway. Not only lame, but foolish. For most of the voters, especially Democratic voters, the ‘60’s were the most significant time of our lives, the defining era of our generation and we still believe, in varying degrees, the ideals we espoused between bong hits. We will be the largest block of voters in the primaries. Few of us are happy with Clinton’s views on Iraq and Iran, but we don’t think she’s too old. Maybe too centrist, but not too old. And, with her commanding lead in the polls, most Democratic voters like her candidacy so those of us who don’t are really in the minority.
In the last Democratic debate, held in Pennsylvania at Philadelphia’s Drexel University, just about all of Senator Clinton’s fellow Democrats attacked her, largely because her lead at the moment in the polls is so large the rest of the field is, for the most part, nothing more than window dressing. Including Senator Obama. Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico even chastised his fellow Democrats for beating up on the Senator. Bill Richardson … he had the funniest campaign ads when he ran for governor!
So, here it is Friday Morning and the Senate has confirmed Michael Mukasey for U.S. Attorney General. If this weren’t at 1,400 words already I’d write about my friend Melody Pressley. She’s a Playboy Special Editions model. Or maybe Mallory Dylan who just assumed the title of Cyber Girl of the Month for November 2007. She’s my choice for Cyber Girl of the Year 2008. So, I’ll just post photos.
One topic I could blog about is aging. Everybody’s doing it, doing it, doing it. Aging that is. It came up because my hairline is receding as fast, or faster than, the polar ice caps. Looking in the mirror this morning I found one little hair sticking out where once had been the leading edge of my widow’s peak.
Sheesh, forget global warming, I’m worried about being bald before I’m sixty.
