So I get this TXT message from a friend........

The Weiner Scandal has been going on for over a week. It's on the news and obviously making the rounds on the internet and social networking sites. You would have to be living under a rock to not know about it.

Anyway, I get a txt message today that says "is Weiner a Dem?". This is from a friend that watches the news, and reads some of the stuff I forward to him.

It just goes to show that it is barely mentioned what party affiliation Weiner is. I know DAMN well that had he been a Republican it would have been the first word in every news story, continuously being aired over and over.

Republican Weiner this and Republican Weiner that. Christ.. if he was a republican he would have already been kicked out....

The hypocrisy is so transparent.

The Japanese Overcome Disaster......

Look what they have done after 3 months... can you imagine the red tape and Bullshit that would go on if it was this country???

Update.. COOP points out rhetorical side of my question in the comments:
"It did happen here, twice... See Ground Zero & New Orleans."


My hat is off to the determination that they show as a people.




Just three months ago Japan was plunged into chaos after a cataclysmic earthquake sent a merciless tsunami crashing through towns and cities up and down the east coast.

The unforgiving tide of water obliterated tens of thousands of buildings, devouring almost anything in its path. Thousands of people died and hundreds of bodies have never been recovered.

The heart-breaking images of families desperately searching for loved ones amid the rubble of their homes sent shockwaves around the world.

Now, three months on, these images show the Japanese people remain undaunted by the havoc nature has wreaked on their homeland as step by step they rebuild their nation.


"TSUNAMI AFTERMATH"

Dear Abby......

Dear Abby,

My husband has a long record of money problems. He runs up huge
credit-card bills and at the end of the month, if I try to pay them off,
he shouts at me, saying I am stealing his money. He says pay the
minimum and lets our kids worry about the rest, but already we can
hardly keep up with the interest. Also he has been so arrogant and
abusive toward our neighbors that most of them no longer speak to us.
The few that do are an odd bunch, to whom he has been giving a lot of
expensive gifts, running up our bills even more. Also, he has gotten
religious. One week he hangs out with Catholics and the next with
people who say the Pope is the Anti-Christ, and the next he's with
Muslims.
Finally,
the last straw. He's demanding that before anyone can be in the same
room with him, they must
sign a loyalty oath. It's just so horribly creepy! Can
you help?

Dear Lost:
Stop whining, Michelle. You're getting to live in the White House for
free, travel the world, and have others pay for everything for you. You
can divorce the jerk any time you want. The rest of us are stuck with
the S-O-B for two more years!
Signed, Abby
