Friday Funnies

To heck with the Drake Bulldogs! Let’s talk about the true heroes today.

The pale-face four of the CIETC scandal managed to get their trial moved to Davenport, trying to get far enough away to find a jury that won’t convict then.

I don’t think it will work. I still have faith in Iowans that we’ll eventually throw these crooks in jail and throw away the key. Come on, where are the smiles in that picture?

And where is Archie Brooks? After receiving all those sexual favors from Mona, and writing all those check, he’s going to walk. He’s turning State’s evidence and squealing like a pig. But he’s not a pig. He’s a weasel.

Karl Rove and Alberto Gonzales seem to be in a race to be the highest-paid speaker after leaving this administration. Rove gets $40,000 for each engagement. Gonzales gets $30,000.


I’ve got to give it to ol’ Karl. He has a mind like Darth Vader and is smarter than most people in Congress or the White House. Rove is going to speaking in Iowa City soon, and I understand that there is quite a welcome planned. Watch for fireworks.

But Alberto Gonzales? He made John Ashcroft look like a man of the people. And John Ashcroft made Janet Reno look like a man of the people. Literally. But Alberto Gonzales was a complete disaster. He never understood anything about the law, he was a crappy manager, never took responsibility for anything, blamed everyone else for his ignorance and missteps, and made a nice lap dog for the President.


And that brings me to the Man!

I’m really starting to warm up to President Bush in his last year in office. He has lightened up, and seems to be looking forward to retirement. He’s making jokes daily. Like he’s never heard that gas is headed to $4 per gallon. That’s funny! I think he is counting the days just like the rest of us.

And I really love it when he shakes his groove thing!

What do you think? Leave me a comment and let me know YOUR opinion. And click on a …bla, bla, bla.

Have a great weekend everybody! Root for the Bulldogs when they take on Indiana State today at noon in the MVC tournament.

Speedy Gonzales Takes Off

It is a rare person that can make John Ashcroft look good, but Alberto Gonzales has been up for the challenge since day one.


Now, as Gonzales - the Attorney General of the United States, the head of the Justice Department, the chief law enforcer of the land – resigns, let us humbly summarize the Alberto Gonzales Record:

• Expanded secret domestic spying over the Justice Department’s protest
• Expanded executive powers to conduct unconstitutional warrantless wiretaps of U.S. citizens
• Thought the Geneva Conventions on the treatment of prisoners of war was ‘quaint’
• Stated that pornography is a greater threat to the U.S. than terrorism
• Turned U.S. Justice Department from a legal into a political organization
• Lied to Congress under oath on numerous topics
  

All in just two short years. President Bush’s bench is getting pretty weak… Who should be the next AG?

Can you think of any other Alberto achievements?
