The New All-American Civil War

A Russian professor and author who years earlier accurately predicted the downfall of the Soviet Union from a Communist state is making another seemingly incredible prediction.

He says that by mid-2010, the economic collapse of America will cause a modern day Civil War in the U.S.--with various nations taking control of sections of our country.

I don't know about you, but I think it's time we had a New All-American Civil War. I mean, we're all so tired of hearing about the first one. It's always the North did this and the South did that, and Clark Gable said "Frankly Scarlett...," and the Underground Railroad wasn't really a railroad, and somebody said to Mrs. Lincoln, "besides that, how did you enjoy the play?," and the South is still mad at all them Yankees up North and Jefferson Davis was a cross-dresser and so on...

Let's take a look at this prognosticating professor and his predictions (that's alliteration)...

He says:

California and nearby states will become part of China or under its control. Aren't we already under the control of China? They make 99% of everything we consume in this country. If you have a product that doesn't say "Made In China" on it, it's probably some antique from before the 1980's.

Mexico will finally takeover Texas and the other Southern states that rebelled in the first Civil War. That doesn't seem like much of a prediction. Millions of Mexican citizens are already our special guests in this country. Just tell the South that they can start displaying the Confederate flag again and they'll follow you anywhere.

New England and the Colonial states will join the European Union. Considering that we have to put up with the strange dialects already from New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and the most guttural of them all, New Hampshire, it's already like having people speaking a foreign language from Europe anyway.

The entire Midwest will become part of Canada or under Canada's flag. You're probably laughing right now. Is Canada going to send in their Royal Canadian Mounted Police to accomplish this on their horses with a hockey stick in one hand and a Moosehead Canadian Lager Beer in the other?

And the final claim is that of Alaska. The Professor says that will go to Russia. It means that Sarah Palin will be at some squaredance or unmarried daughter's giving birth and didn't notice the Russians flying in from just a few miles away. Nobody cares about Alaska anyway.

So there you have it. The Professor's predictions. He's obviously still hallucinating from the 60's.

Eartha Kitt Dies On Christmas Day

One generation will always remember her as an incredible singer.

Another generation will always remember her as one of those to play Catwoman on the mid-1960's TV comedy version of "Batman."

And those who were politically aware will never forget her courage one day at the White House.

When Lady Bird Johnson, wife of President Lyndon "let's keep escalating the Vietnam War" Johnson, held one of her luncheon/teas at the White House, Eartha Kitt did something that just didn't go on in the White House. She got up and told Mrs. Johnson what she thought about the Vietnam War. And it was not what The Johnsons or the White House wanted to hear.

It made world news. And shook up these war mongers in Washington, D.C.

Of course, Eartha was immediately blacklisted in Hollywood. You just don't tell the Johnsons what you are really feeling about the Vietnam War at a pretty and perfect White House luncheon.

Again, her courage was admirable. The Johnsons may have heard protests from outside the White House, but never from inside.

Today, Christmas Day, I ask all you Christians who condemned this woman who turned Lady Bird's Tea Party into a Mad Hatter Tea Party--Who Would Jesus Say Was More Like Him--The family in the White House that enjoyed escalating a War--Or A Woman who with just a few words, brought the feelings of millions wanting to Stop The War into the home of those producing it?

"WHAT'S HIS BEEF" ???????

"WHAT'S HIS BEEF" ??????? asked our great leader George W. Bush in response to an Iraqi journalist throwing shoes at him.

I actually do have to commend our President for his feline-like acrobatics as he quickly and gracefully ducked when the first shoe came flying at him.

However, after 4,000 Americans and 1 million Iraqis have died in this almost 6-year, $300 million dollar a day scuffle, with both Iraq and America falling apart because of it...

I really believe that hopefully the last of the Bush Presidents can answer the question himself.

ILLINOIS: LAND OF CORRUPTION

I GREW UP IN CHICAGO, ILL. AND LIVED THERE UNTIL AGE 14.

EVEN AT 8, CHICAGO OFFERED A SPECIAL DYNAMIC, A SPECIAL SENSE, A SPECIAL FEELING IN THE AIR, TO EVEN ITS YOUNGEST CITIZENS:

YOU COULD FEEL THE POLITICAL CORRUPTION.




IT WAS ALL AROUND YOU. YOU COULD HEAR IT FROM PARENTS, ADULTS TALKING ABOUT IT IN STORES, TV FILLED WITH STORIES, NEWSPAPER FILLED WITH STORIES.

AT AN EARLY AGE, YOU COULD PICK UP THE VIBES THAT THE STATE AND CITY YOU WERE LIVING IN WAS FILLED WITH CORRUPT POLITICS.

OF COURSE THE FACT THAT MAYOR RICHARD J. DALEY WAS THE MAYOR DURING MY ENTIRE GROWING UP IN CHICAGO, AND THE MAYOR IS NOW RICHARD M. DALEY, DOES NOT AT ALL TAINT MY PERSPECTIVE OF CHICAGO POLITICS.

THANK GOD US KIDS COULD GET AWAY FROM IT ALL AND WATCH BOZO.

What Were You Doing 28 Years Ago Tonight?

What Were You Doing 28 Years Ago Tonight?

If you are a baby boomer, you probably have the answer already.

I know where I was and what I was doing.
Watching "Little House On the Prairie" when during the commercials, the local KNBC announcer came on for 3 seconds and said, "John Lennon reportedly shot in New York City, details at 11:00." Then it was back to "Little House."



"WHAT DID HE JUST SAY?" We immediately went searching through all total 7 TV channels in Los Angeles looking for details.

What we found out a few minutes later stunned everybody around the world.

He was a Beatle. Things like this don't happen to Beatles. Everybody loves The Beatles.

Apparently, one deranged young man loved a member of The Beatles too much.

So much, that he decided that the only way to get close to one of them was to be linked forever with him.

Tonight in Los Angeles, 50 fans of John Lennon gathered around his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Vine street right next to the Capitol Records building.

There was a tribute, candles, photos, songs, singing, speeches and a commitment to World Peace.

There is only one person I can think of that would have had Americans out in the streets protesting the war in Iraq from the day we went in there. Instead of being obsessed with TV talent contests.

John Lennon, a visionary who imagined a better world and wasn't afraid to say it.

Did You Really Think They Were Going To Say "NO" To The 3 Remaining American Car Companies?

HOPE YOU HAVE ENJOYED THE CHARADE FOR THE LAST WEEK BETWEEN CONGRESS AND THE CHIEFS OF GM, FORD AND CHRYSLER. BECAUSE THAT'S ALL IT WAS.

WITH THE REMAINING MAJOR AMERICAN CAR COMPANIES SPENDING $50 MILLION THIS YEAR ON LOBBYING EFFORTS IN WASHINGTON, D.C., YOU DIDN'T REALLY THINK THEIR FRIENDS ON CAPITOL HILL WERE GOING TO LET THEM DOWN, NOW DID YOU?

WATCH FOR A DEAL TO BE REACHED VERY QUICKLY HERE FOR GM, FORD AND CHRYSLER TO GET THEIR FAIR SHARE OF THE $700 BILLION TAXPAYER CHARITY BANKROLL.

THE SENATORS AND CONGRESSMAN COULDN'T JUST SAY YES TO THEM WITHOUT PUTTING ON A SHOW FOR ALL OF US AMERICANS. THEY HAD TO PROVE THAT THEY WERE WATCHING OUT FOR OUR BEST INTERESTS FIRST.

THIS IS THE WASHINGTON, D.C. VERSION OF "UNCLE SAM: DEAL OR NO DEAL" STARRING NANCY PELOSI AS THE HOST, CEOs OF THE BIG 3 AUTO MAKERS AS THE CONTESTANTS AND WE ARE MERELY THE STUDIO AUDIENCE. WE DON'T TAKE HOME ANY PRIZES LIKE THE CONTESTANTS DO, AS A MATTER OF FACT, WE DON'T EVEN GET A MILTON BRADLEY COPY OF THE HOME VERSION OF "UNCLE SAM: DEAL OR NO DEAL."

AMERICANS--THANKS FOR PLAYING THE GAME--SUCKERS!
