Snooze Newz

 

1. And JUST when I thought the situation could not get worse, it does.

   I’ll be blunt here: on what PLANET does this even warrant a mention outside of the sleaziest of the sleazy tabloids, much less son a supposedly serious newspaper?

   And why are we even talking about it?

   This is not “fluff,” this is just gooey, ugly,nebulous sludge clogging the arteries of this Republic’s- and soon the entire West’s- news agencies.

   Seriously.

   And before I go on further, Drew:

   Obama isn’t a beer drinker at all.

   In that case, I am even LESS of one, seeing as how I stay away from alcoholic beverages entirely (Diet Coke/Pepsi or Root Beer are my flavors of choice), so we can’t blame the matter on some mythical wisdom that comes with strong alcohol.

   Seriously though, think about all that is happening in the world today:
   Africa continues its sordid journey through the pits of hell, Russian forces still remain on indisputably Georgian (and not merely Ossetian or Abkhazian) soil (and their local allies continue their ethnic cleansing of the frontier), the Caucasus and Central Asia- and Europe’s oil line along with it- remain trapped between the Chinese, the Russians, and hte ISlamists, Latin America has been teetering closer to the brink of war, Afghanistan enters perhaps the climatic part of the conflict there, Pakistan is on the verge of an Islamist takeover, the Arab League and OPEC remain as paranoid and as ruthless as ever, the ugly stains of Yugoslav nationalism and separatist fanaticism are reemerging, and the West continues to rot away from the inside.

   And yet NONE of this was deemed reportable, but this was.

   So, the only question remains how many nukes have to go off and where before somebody actually takes the time to place this on page A25?

3. I don’t drink beer but the next time I see him I’m going to ask him the same thing about us Vodka drinkers so I guess I could ask him about you beer drinkers. Cheers

4. Y’know, I was standing in line at Fry’s Food yesterday, and saw a tabloid bleating about Президент Оба́ма’s Gay Lover...I then put that with his gay First Pitch, and now this gay Beer Drinking, and now I have to wonder....

   “Michelle! What was that bright fla—....”
