Mars Area School District Principal Clears Her Name...Sort of...

Heres an update on that bizarre local news story for all you Western PA news junkies. Yeah I know your out there. I posted a couple items following the legal scandal involving the disorderly conduct and obstruction of justice charges on a Mars Area School District principal and her husband. Well, the case was closed yesterday, and all charges against Miss Saker were dropped. Three of the 5 counts were dismissed by a lower court and the remaining 2 counts were Nolle Prossed (dismissed because person pressing charges or the prosecution does not wish to continue usually for lack of evidence or a plea bargain). That means that Miss Saker has not been convicted of any crimes and her name has been cleared. There is a possibility of charges being reinstated if Daniel Tressler wishes because of the Nolle Prossed, but I think that is highly unlikely. I am sure Miss Saker promised free tickets to all the Mars High School football games this fall and gave the cop a gift certificate to Applebees. You know what I'm saying...228 holla!. Anna's bad ass husband Nazir wasn't so lucky and had to plead guilty to all of his charges. I am sure that Miss Saker is glad that this is all over and done with so she doesn't have to hear the Cops theme song playing outside her office, and doesn't have to worry about field trips to the Court house on her trial dates. I guess there is a lesson to be learned by all of this. No one gets in the way of Anna Saker and a blue light special at Big Lots. Hey it could be worse. She could have been the mayor of Detroit who was sentenced to prison today.

McCain Says, " Go Ahead, Try Not to Vote For The American Family."

Cause that is what the Republicans say you are doing if you don't vote for Palin and her family. Sarah Palin gave her big speech tonight that all the 24 hour news stations were building up to be a political speech for the ages. Well... It wasn't. Palin basically told us all about her family and explained she is a reformer that eliminated all the wasteful government spending in Alaska (she opposed the 400 million bridge to nowhere, but kept the 400 million after the bridge was vetoed- she didn't mention that). That must have been a difficult job since Alaska has such a huge wasteful bureaucracy right? It was mostly everything we expected. The truth is I have heard better speeches at high school school board meetings. That is what I felt like I was watching. It was like a PTA mom was mad about the school bus stopping down the street instead of in front of her house. I don't care how much reform she has done. Being a governor of Alaska for 2 years does not cut it. She doesn't even have a passport. 

The Republicans are all about image. This election will come down to a vote on Image not issues. They are saying how can you vote against the American family. They think they can avoid the issues by parading a family out using pageantry to get votes. It may work for their party, but I think the American people know better. Its all image/ style (bad style at that- except grandma McCain she has enough glamour to win any office) over substance. I still have a problem with the fact that she has four kids under 21, and one that is special needs, which she is still breast feeding. I mean Wonder Women could not even devote the time needed to be president under those circumstances. Did anyone notice how they kept passing the down syndrome baby around from Cindy to all the kids. Talk about a cheap photo op. Why wasn't a nanny watching the baby. I didn't see any other babies there. Levi was even there and got to hold the baby. This poor kid probably just wanted to get some, and he is now sitting at the Republican national convention engaged to a possible Vice Presidents daughter. After forcing myself to watch ten minutes of shrill family value procession, I changed the channel to see Serena Williams beat Venus. Venus was up 5-3 and had 6 set points to get to a third set. I can't believe she lost. I favor Venus over Serena. She looks more like a women- sorry, I know- I like her game better too- did that help? No?. Serena will win the open. These two are playing on a level that is so far above any other women at the open that they could play left handed and still win. That rat faced Nadal beat American Marty Fish. I don't like Nadal because he gets in the way of Roger Federrer being the greatest tennis player ever... and he is always picking his ass in those weird pant shorts.

John McCain Dated an Exotic Dancer?!?!?

Tonight was the first night of the prime- time -show part of the Republican National Convention. Usually the Republican convention is way more exciting and entertaining than the Democrat's Convention. People are usually drunker, acting more stupid, and generally having a better time. Its people who don't get out much mixed with people that get out too much. Its great, kind of like a wedding. Anylosers, tonight was different. Fred Thompson, Bush, and Joe Lieberman spoke and pretty much put all the old people to sleep. The veterans clapped their crooked bony hands and fingers to the whole McCain Hanoi Hilton story, and tried to get up for all the U-S-A chants, but their walkers were at the end of the aisles. Everyone woke up out of their Scotch nap when Fred Thompson decided to complete his lecture about McCain having the character to run the country by saying John once dated an exotic dancer named "Marie- The Flame of Florida." Oh yeah and he drove a Corvette while he did this? WTF. Right in front of McCain's wife and 96 year old mother he said this, and it wasn't even a joke. Or, if it was, it was executed really poorly. Fred Thompson limped through the rest of the speech, apparently lying as well. If Fred didn't put every senior ( I love how old people call themselves seniors) in the house to sleep, then Joe Lieberman definitely did as the closer. Joe Liberman is such a horribly boring politician which he clearly revealed to America in 2000. His speeches are worse than paint drying. They should just call him the wet blanket. He basically said a bunch of junk about how great McCain is, and how we are all citizens not D's and R's. He didn't try to say you should vote Republican, he just said that you should vote for McCain. 

The whole night was just weird. President Bush was basically relegated to a satellite feed where he said McCain could lead and that Iraq is going well. He came to say a man that he ripped to shreds and personally tore apart in 2000 is now ready to lead the country. Further, The Republican party was cheering for a candidate that has done nothing but been a thorn in their side. Then they had Lieberman, a life long Democrat, speak and say nothing good about the Republicans or bad about the Democrats. It was just confusing and came off as a party that is kind of in disarray and lost- confused about their leadership and direction. This was only the first big night. Giuliani and Sarah Palin speak tomorrow. It should be...ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!

Gossip Girls Returns!!!! and Disapoints...:(

Gossip Girl has been everywhere letting everyone know that they are starting a new season and we should all be excited about it. Well it was on tonight and I kind of thought it sucked. As I previously mentioned, Gossip Girl has decided to basically pluck story lines out of pop culture instead of paying writers to come up with new stories. It some what worked last season, but I kind of feel that they are now just pulling a Law and Order, and leaving work at 3:30. The fun part is to look for hints and predict where they are going with story lines. Tonight I caught a few that I think are going to develop. First, Nathan is sleeping with a married women, Serena and Dan are getting back together. Chuck won't tell Blair he loves her so she is dating a guy that she wasn't interested in, but now is because he was hiding his royal background. Jenny Humphrey works for some fashion designer who is mean. Here are my predictions. Jenny will become anorexic and a junkie- maybe even "Whinehouseish." The hint was telling Dan she wanted "Popsicles" for dinner, and the fact that she works for a designer. Blair's new guy who faked his accent will turn out to be like Anne Hathaway's ex boyfriend that was a high end con man who pretended that he worked for the Vatican. He will steal a bunch of money. It will be Dan's story line from last season switched to Blair and Chuck. Nathan will somehow be involved with this married lady and her husband, which I think will go in a murder direction. Nathan will be framed or something. There are many rich people murder things recently in the news. Rockfeller or something right? There you go, you have the rest of the season in front of you. Gossip Girls even gave a nod to this world they pluck there story lines from by having Tinsley Mortimer make an appearance at a White Party. Keep your eye on the real life world of socialites because whatever happens will probably end up on Gossip Girls. 

Marathon of Dog Whisper on Today!!!

If you are bored waiting for Gosspi Girls, there is a marathon of Dog Whisper on NGEO. Bulldogs who attack skateboards and Bull Terriers who are afraid to walk up the stairs. We may have off, but being the pack leader is a 24 hour job!!! Calm and assertive....

The Saga Continues...

UPDATE II: The Country has fallen in love with Palin. I predicted it even know I was joking. It turns out is was actually an incredible decision, politically that is. It remains to be seen whether it was actually a good decision for the country. What, you mean "Hockey moms" can't stare down Vladmir Putin in a nuclear standoff? I think I just came up with a new Lifetime movie. Its funny, but scary.

UPDATE: I guess Palin was never a member of the AIP, she went to one of their conventions once. Just a life long Republican. Oh Well, she still wants everyone to wait to have sex until they are married and for schools to teach that, while her 17 year old daughter gets knocked up by a guy who says "Fuck" is the single adjective that best describes him on his myspace page. Niiice

I just can't get enough of Sarah Palin. (For a good article read this) The severity of such an ill political move is staggering to me. I just can't wrap my head around how a presidential candidate could make such a bad decision. The latest in "Days of Buffoonery," is that Palin's husband, which stands for the idea that Alaskans should be allowed to vote whether to succeed from the other 49 states and become its own country. McCain's new campaign motto is "Country First," while the AIP party motto is "Alaska First- Alaska Always." Doh!!! ABC news has confirmed that Palin was a member of the party in the 1990's. Officials say that they are not certain of Polin's exact stance on their issues, but the parties platform was under her nose the whole time. From the Daily KOS here is what the AIP believes:

• A belief that "the vote for statehood was invalid because the people were not presented with the range of options available to them" and that "the federal government has since breached the contract for statehood on numerous occasions in over a dozen serious and substantial instances."
  
• A belief that there should be a vote on Alaskan secession.
  
• Remaining "steadfastly opposed to environmental regulations and actively promotes the private ownership and widespread development of Alaskan land."
  
• A platform which includes: Amending the Constitution of the State of Alaska so as to re-establish the rights of all Alaskan residents to entry upon all public lands within the state, and to acquire private property interest there in, under fair and reasonable conditions. Such property interest shall include surface and sub-surface patent. Foster a constitutional amendment abolishing and prohibiting all property taxes. Seeking the complete repatriation of the public lands, held by the federal government, to the state and people of Alaska.

Awesome!!! I can't think of anything that could be more important to the American people. It is only going to get better from here. We are talking a political disaster approaching levels of the Titanic sinking. Just like all those rich people sinking into the cold dark waters. Sarah Palin is the iceberg that is going to sink all the rich Republicans this election year. Isn't the "vetting" process suppose to discover all this. It was like the vetted to find the worst candidate. Oh yeah, McCain was aware of all this and still decided to make her the second most powerful person in the world and leader of ALL of The United States. United States voters love to make bad decisions and then whine about it later. Give Bush a second term and then complain about him being a bad president. This could be just another stupid decision that Americans will whine about later. Its like they make there choice for president after a night of binge drinking. Imagine using beer goggles to decide who is best to run a country.

Is McCain Even Trying to Win???

If the fact that McCain picked a first term governor of Alaska (one of the least populated states in the Union) doesn't make you question his judgement to lead our country, let me offer you this. Saturday, a story broke that implied Palin never gave birth to her 4 month old down syndrome child, but rather faked the pregnancy to cover for her pregnant 17 year old daughter Bristol.  Palin pulled the daughter out of school for 5-8 months, and some other shit like that. Well, the Palin and McCain campaign has decided to let everyone know that there is no way that the rumor could be true because little Bristol- Jamie-Lynn-Spears is pregnant now!!!! Five months pregnant, which would over lap with her 4 month old  brother. That means that Palin's 4 month old child will be an uncle to Palin's 17 year old daughter's child. You got all this?(Read this article for a great Spear/ Palin comparison. The best part is that McCain knew about all of this during the "vetting" process and still picked Palin to be his running mate. Does he understand anything about the country he lives in? We have fucking Lynn Spears as a VP candidate of the most powerful country in the world when the presidential candidate has had cancer twice and is 73. WTF?? People have already began talking about her ethics investigation, and her lack of experience. Now two bizarre ass scandals have broke not even a week since she was announced. HAHAHAH. McCain/ Palin is such a disaster it cracks me up. It is like someone copied Palin's family for the new season of Desperate Housewife's. Knowing this fucked up country, middle America will relate to her. You know they are all like "its OK for people like Palin to have a fucked up personal life, but those inner city poor people, they need a healthy dose of family values." But what the fuck do I know. I posted this story right after a video of someone watching a man cut off his penis and smash his testicles with a hatchet.
