Only one more full week of president shithead! :woohoo:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

9. Those are such sweet words!

:woohoo:

Hi Wolvie! :hi:

[WolverineDG]

11. No kidding!

I can't wait until we're in the single digits, as in ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!! :woohoo: :party:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

12. The moment I'm really waiting for

is Georgie's Nixonian wave as he boards Marine One. If he gives the peace sign, it will be perfect.

:hi: Happy Weekend!

[WolverineDG]

18. Wouldn't it be funny if he got a shoe right in the kisser at that point?

:hi:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

20. I love the way you think!

:rofl:

:hi: :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

38. Hi-larious!

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

13. Talked to my boss today about the 20th. Told her I REALLY want

to watch the inauguration. She does too. She's thinking of having her little worker bees over to her house that morning so we can all watch together!

:bounce: :bounce:

[Patsy Stone]

14. I have the whole week off

to watch and recover. :)

[SeattleGirl]

15. Oooooh, you lucky girl!

That's fabulous, Patsy!

[RavensChick]

Good for you!

Damn I wish I had that kind of schedule. Oh, wait, I just remembered--since I'm a Federal employee I got a 5 day holiday weekend coming up (MLK Day AND Inauguration Day) so I know all next week is gonna be a very busy one for me.

[Patsy Stone]

75. I had time I had to use or lose.

We can't roll our vacation time over any more, and we've been able to for years and years so even though I've taken lots so far, I'm still going to end up giving them at least 40 hours becuase the deadline is the 23rd. Most of the company has been on vacation for the past few months weeks and days at a time.

[RavensChick]

56. It's gonna be a long 7 days,

but I can deal with it.

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

70. No kidding!!

I'm going to be in DC when it happens! :woohoo:
dg

[RavensChick]

95. Really?

Cool!!! There's gonna be a DU meet up on the 19th and I'm gonna be there for that. As for the Inauguration, I'm still debating whether or not I can deal with the crowds on the subway into town.

[Patsy Stone]

8. I haven't seen Craig Crawford in forever!

Changing subjects... Tell me, how on earth did Chuck Todd get to be Political Director?

[RevCheesehead]

30. Timmeh died.

Same way stretch got Meet the Press.
Surely, they're not the best qualified for the job, are they?

[Patsy Stone]

34. Tweety would have been more believable.

Chuck also got David's old job as Chief White House Correspondent, too. Talk about right place, right time, huh?

:hi: :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

10. Doesn't Bob Fertik post here?

I swear I've seen that name before.

[SharonRB]

118. Bob Fertik runs Democrats.org

I've met him -- he's a great guy.

I missed KO tonight because of my cousin's daughter's bat mitzvah. Was Bob on?

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

119. Hi!

No, he wasn't on. KO read a comment from change.org, written by Bob, asking for investigations into the BFEE's crimes.

[SharonRB]

120. I'm watching the podcast of the show now

I should have taped, but I guess I thought I'd be home in time for the 10 pm rerun.

[SharonRB]

121. So Blago is being impeached because he wanted people to

be able to get drugs in Canada? Eh?

He's certifiable.

[Patsy Stone]

16. Please let the world demand war crime investigations.

Please.

[SeattleGirl]

21. Praying for the same thing.

[RevCheesehead]

36. Here's a thought:

What if Obama is holding his cards close, waiting until shithead is OUT of office, and unable to pardon?
That makes me feel a little bit better.

[RavensChick]

99. Me too.

Then again, I shudder at the thought of who else this nimrod is gonna pardon between now and the 20th.

:scared:

[RevCheesehead]

17. Hi Everyone!

The Hamburger Helper is ready, the glass of milk is poured, and I'm here! :)

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

19. Sounds like you need to dig up my chicken caldo recipe, Rev

:9

:hi:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

25. I'd love it!

But for the next couple of months, I'm cleaning out the cupboards. :)

[WolverineDG]

35. ah, I hear ya

I need to start planning meals around the pantry too. :crazy:

dg

[Berry Cool]

22. You want MILK, when SG brought such lovely drinks??

You're nuts. :-)

:hi: Hi all! Again I have to be Berry After the Show. Oh well.

Boy, you know when Keith says "Goodness!" twice, he's shocked.

And he's already decided that Sarah Palin calling him "evil" is the highlight of his year...and we're only nine days in! :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

28. It's a state law.

Drink your milk, or be deported. :)

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

41. Man, your dairy industry IS aggressive.

It's not just the cheese, either.

[SeattleGirl]

24. REV!!!

Nice to see you! :loveya: :hi: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

31. Girl!

No meetings tonight, so I can enjoy your (collective group) snarkiness! :hi: :hug: :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

37. First night I've been here all week!

I've missed the snarkiness!

[RevCheesehead]

39. One snarky, extra-large, coming up!

We're in luck. Berry and Wolvie are in the house. :evilgrin:

[SeattleGirl]

45. I know!

And so are you, dear Rev. Snarkiness! :7

[Patsy Stone]

23. Gonzo said the one thing Keith can't bear to hear:

His dream job is Commissioner of Baseball.

p.s. Really, though...I can't blame AGAG. Isn't that just the best sounding title EVER???

[WolverineDG]

27. I'm sure if he actually gets that job

Keith will rag him day in & day out & enjoy every minute of it. :evilgrin:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

42. Ya know...

If he gets that job, and Condi gets NFL Commissioner, I'm moving to Canada where I will learn to love hockey.

[WolverineDG]

58. Well, I'm close to Mexico

so I could learn to love soccer..... ;)

dg

[Berry Cool]

43. I hear Keith plans to become a big fan of not only soccer

but bowling, figure skating, water polo, Australian rules football...

[RevCheesehead]

44. Honestly, ..

after Bud Selig, how much more can Gonzo fuck it up? :shrug:

[WolverineDG]

63. Strangely, I'm not willing to want to chance it

anyone connected to Bush as the "reverse Midas Touch"--everything they touch turns to shit....
dg

[Patsy Stone]

26. Who was Blago's one lone fan in the IL House?

114-1

:rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

54. Lucius Malfoy.

He remained loyal to the end.

[WolverineDG]

65. Um, have you read the last Potter book, Rev?

Just sayin'

dg

[RevCheesehead]

73. That was his wife.

I still maintain he remained a Bush Voldemort loyalist.

[WolverineDG]

78. He wasn't too happy about it though

I bet for the movie they write out his wife & have Lucius do that bit at the end.

dg

[RevCheesehead]

81. She was left off the wall at Sirius' house, wasn't she?

Was she Bellatrix's sister, or cousin?

[Patsy Stone]

91. Sister

and Tonks' sister and Sirius' cousin.

[WolverineDG]

94. cousin, I believe

she was Tonks' aunt.

:cry: Tonks

dg

[Patsy Stone]

29. Blago fuckin' ROCKS!

:rofl:

[GigiMommy]

32. Happy Friday Everybody!!!!!!!

:hi: :bounce: Cheers!

[SeattleGirl]

47. Gigi!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

53. SG!!!!!!

:hug: :loveya: Happy New Year!!!

[SeattleGirl]

55. And the same to you and Miss Cassie!

:loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

57. Mmm, that looks good!

Hi Gigi and Cassie! :bounce::bounce:

[GigiMommy]

107. REV!!!

:hug: :hi: :bounce: Cassie's at a neighbor's house for a sleepover but I know she'd say Hi too!!!

[Patsy Stone]

112. That's good to hear

because we used some bad words tonight. :)

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

33. Blago always sounds like he's on speed or something.

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

40. Blago: a legend in his own mind.

Hero, martyr, poetry reciter, wearer of bad hair.

[Patsy Stone]

46. Absolutely Fabulous

I've never heard of anyone being impeached for seeing that people get health care. It must be so hard being that misunderstood.

[RevCheesehead]

61. "Lego hair model"

is what Stephen Colbert called him. :)

[Patsy Stone]

48. Jurn Kackleman?

I need to know how to spell that for real. :)

[RevCheesehead]

49. Weather-Cat!

Hey ralps - do you remember Albert from Channel 6?

[SeattleGirl]

51. Love how the kitty was licking the guy's face!

[Berry Cool]

88. That was so sweet!

I told my cats to watch. Interrupt a weathercast and you, too, could be famous!

[SeattleGirl]

90. Hehe

[GigiMommy]

50. Happy Birthday Ann Nixon Cooper!!!

[RavensChick]

52. What's Up?!?!!

Happy Friday, Happy New Year (to those I haven't seen in a while), and Happy Belated Birthday to all my fellow January Capricorns (mine was on Wednesday)!!!!!!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

59. Hi RC!

Happy belated birthday to you!

[RavensChick]

71. Hey, SG!

Thank you!!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

60. Hi RC!!!

:hi: :bounce:

[RavensChick]

72. Hi, Gigi!!!

Happy Friday!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

62. Happy Belated Birthday, RC!

Too bad for you, Keith's a January Aquarius.

[Berry Cool]

68. To be fair, Keith

the KGB hardly needs to take lessons from the Bush Administration on how to kidnap, torture and imprison innocent people.

The sad part is, now when they do it, we look damn silly telling them they are doing a terrible thing they should not do, that we would NEVER do.

[RavensChick]

76. Hi, Berry!

It's okay. I can dream, tho'.

:evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

64. Happy Belated Birthday!

And a happy 2009 and healthy 2009.

:hi:

[RavensChick]

80. Hi, Pats!!

Thank you. I wish the same this year for everyone too. I celebrate my special day all month anyway, with the biggest party of all time coming up on the 20th!!!!

[Patsy Stone]

86. That's when I feel the year will really begin.

Good luck to your Ravens this weekend!

[RavensChick]

104. Thanks!

I'm gonna be out for most of the day tomorrow so I'll be keeping cross the fingers when I see the score.

:)

[WolverineDG]

67. Yay! Happy Birthday!!

:hi:

dg

[RavensChick]

84. Hi, Wolvie!

Thanks, hon! It's been cold here but no snow thus far, thank goodness. The freezing temps is bad enough, but I'm not ready for the white stuff yet.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

69. Hey, RC!!

Happy b-day, woman!!! :party::toast::party:

[RavensChick]

89. Rev!!!!

Thanks and the same to you! I had to go back to work on Wednesday but it was okay. I brought back a can of beer one of my cousins gave me from Georgia so I'm still celebrating, LOL!

:hi:

:party: :toast: :party:

[GigiMommy]

66. Gotta go offline for a few minutes...

Hubby's gonna hook up the Wii to the Internet! Bye!

[Berry Cool]

85. Great stealth Special Comment, Keith: "Bush the Liberator"!

And a killer ending!! :applause:

Now, please tell whoever's working chyron tonight the difference between "who's" and "whose," will you??? :grr:

[RavensChick]

109. Have fun!

Have the rubbing alcohol ready if you play tennis tonight!

[WolverineDG]

74. Oh god, make him stop

I'm getting stupider just listening to this idiot!

dg

[Botany]

98. did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?

[SeattleGirl]

77. OMG! Boosh is giving me AND Keith headaches!

[Berry Cool]

97. Oh God, that was the best part.

It was so heartening to see Keith react to listening to Bush the same way I do. Also, to see him do at work something I felt like doing all day myself.

Even MORE heartening to see that his hand hair is growing back nicely. :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

101. What happened to his hand hair?

Musta missed that!

[Patsy Stone]

103. Martha Stewart happened.

He was cooking with her, and the hand hair was gone in the close-ups.

[SeattleGirl]

105. Ouch!

Sounds like a bit of a kitchen accident. :scared:

[Patsy Stone]

108. Nah

more like waxing. :)

[SeattleGirl]

110. NOOOOOO!

:cry:

[Patsy Stone]

114. Yep

Smooth as a baby's bottom.

[RavensChick]

111. Lovely hairy wrists!

I'm getting a thrill just thinking about it!

:evilgrin:

[Berry Cool]

116. We think Martha's staff "manscaped" him

because they were afraid that when he put his hands in a pie crust, it would look like this:

[Botany]

79. 5 minutes ... just give me 5 minutes w/ that fucktard

NCLB = $ for Neil Bush selling the software and text books for NCLB

Those were 5th graders he was talking to.

I really hate that asshat

sorry .... I was just out w/ friends.

[Patsy Stone]

82. Happy Friday, Bot

That NCLB thing is one of the sleaziest little connections.

[Botany]

92. unlike Cheney who

under H.W. as Sec. of Defense outsourced pentagon work

under Clinton was the head of the company that got outsourced work

under W sold a war and made billions

:grr:

[Berry Cool]

100. He's such an idiot.

He keeps talking about how kids who want to get out of bad schools can go to another school under his plan. But what happens to the kids stuck in the bad schools? THEY get "left behind." But I guess THAT's okay. :grr:

[SeattleGirl]

102. Well, you know that kids whose parent's can't afford private school

aren't worthy, right? :grr:

[RevCheesehead]

87. They're obviously a bad influence on you.

Usually, you're so calm and serene, telling me that I'm your Fav(r)e. :hi:

[Botany]

96. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?

so how is Wisconsin?

[ralps]

93. Today's worst person in the world is Glenn Beck!!!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

113. The Rockefeller Center tree is dark.

Goodbye, Christmas! :cry:

[Patsy Stone]

115. Until next year

farewell... :(

[Patsy Stone]

106. I noticed the howObamagotelected.com

on the bottom of the screen, but I thought everyone had noticed it.

[Berry Cool]

117. I did too, but I think Keith is finding "deeper" meaning in it.

I say: "Keith, Sarah Palin isn't 'How Obama Got Elected'--she's "WHY Obama Got Elected."
