The message was subsequently spread around the internet. Now that he has more time on his hands, he produced this humorous video.
“Does anyone here remember the Gulf of Mexico? Well, it’s gone.” – David Letterman “President Obama said he’s angry and frustrated with the oil spill in the Gulf and the oil companies behind it. He said he’s tired of all the finger-pointing — then he blamed the Bush administration for everything.” – Jay Leno “We’re […]
A tidbit in Electoral-Vote yesterday had me laughing: Special Election for Murtha’s Seat Today When Rep. John Murtha died earlier this year, that triggered a special election for his seat that will be held today.

Debbie Schlussel calls her “Miss Hezbollah” and says that she won because the contest is fixed and “Clearly, there is affirmative action for Muslim women in beauty pagaents”.
