realize that the voice of the Republican Party, Rush Limbaugh,
would jump on the band wagon and perhaps get his tittie in a
twister in the process...you see...Limbaugh
pictured in
a familiar pose behind bars...stated that real Americans should
NOT donate funds to Haitian disaster relief since it would improve
President Obama's position with "light skinned and dark skinned
African Americans"...Way to go Rush...you are the gift that keeps
on giving!

earthquake which has struck the nation of Haiti. The quake,
measuring about 7.5 on the Richter Scale has apparently leveled
the capital city of Port Au Prince. The quake occurred about
one hour before darkness yesterday so those individuals unlucky
enough to be in one of the shanties which predominate the region
have now been crushed between concrete slabs for over 12 hours in
total darkness.
As their only recourse is to pray to a tone
deaf God, they can enjoy their life forces ebbing away all the
while knowing that soon...they will be in heaven. This is
another example for the Dave Heintziel's of the world (see The God
Page for additional background on Mr. Heintzel) to reinforce the
theme that God...and Jesus...love us. Yes...they love us
soooo much that they periodically have to engineer catastrophes
such as this earthquake in order to test faith and bring common
enemies together to save the residual zombies that will be sitting
on a stoop in their own excrement waiting for the help that will
come their way from...
...the U.S. Taxpayers. Can you imagine
the thorn sticking in the craw of such limp dicks as Mitch
McConnel, John Kyl, John Ensign, and John Boehner as they prepare
to offer their condolences and prayers for the Haitians all the
while wailing and gnashing their teeth over the government aid
which will flow to Haiti..
While it's taboo to help poor island nations
such as Haiti and Cameroon out of the squalor they exist in, it's
admirable to ravage a nation like Afghanistan to win the War on
Terror.
Speaking of the other news of the day...The
Raptor's old friend, Sara Palin has been in the news again.
She has just come down from cloud nine after the successful
release of her book..."Going Rouge", only to realize that normal
individuals such as Mark Halperin and John Heilman can write too.
And write they did with their just released book..."Game Change",
which seems to deal with 2008 as it pertained to the Presidential
election.
The most compelling stories to come from this
book involve Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid (D-NV) stating
that Barack Obama was desirous since he was a light skinned
African-American who did not possess the "negro dialect".
Also, that Bill and Hillary Clinton are awful (Clinton organized a
transition team before the primaries we over) and that Governor
Palin could not disseminate the reasoning behind a North and South
Korea. Palin also has been clashing with McCain/Palin
campaign staffer Steve Schmidt as of late. Schmidt came out
on 60 Minutes to reveal how Governor Palin was having difficulty
prepping for her debate with Senator Joe Biden and had a
unconscious tick which caused her to refer to him as "O'Biden".
She also went into a "blue funk' and became squeamish. This is
hilarious...What a dolt! And she wanted to be our latex
salesman!
The Raptor is dismayed to learn that NBC has
messed up the late night talk show scene...again! It was
just about 15 years ago that Carson retired and Jay Leno and David
Letterman came out swinging to determine who would host the iconic
"Tonight Show". Now the combatants will be Leno and Conan
O'Brien. News to follow for sure but the gist of the story
is that O'Brien has been asked to step aside to allow Leno to host
a on half hour show preceding his show. For this he is
feeling unappreciated. This is all moot for The Raptor since
I am usually asleep by 10PM.
On the local scene, the region has seen
almost 4 feet of snow fall since January 1st and the piles are
impressive! Fortunately The Raptor has a 8 HP snow blower
with electric start capability and as a result the driveway is in
excellent shape. The Raptor enjoyed the shootout between
Green Bay and Arizona this past weekend and can safely say that
The Taliban don't know what their missing. If they could
figure out a way to take their difference to the athletic field,
the world would be a better place.
This weekend the matchups include: The
Cardinals versus The Saints (Sat - 4:30) and The Ravens at The
Colts (8:15). Meanwhile on Sunday The Cowboys will be
visiting The Vikings for a 1PM contest while the Jets will go
cross country to test the mettle of The Chargers in a 5:00 game.
Predicting the outcome can be tricky but here
goes...The AFC Championship game will pit the Chargers and The
Colts while the NFC Championship will feature The Cowboys and The
Cardinals. Meanwhile the Super Bowl will see The Cowboys up
against The Colts with The Colts winning the big Tamale.
