We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, and please buy our beer.

Old line from a Stan Freeburg bit.  I'd love to get my hands on an MP3 of that, but nothing on iTunes.
I have it on the Dr Demento Xmas CD, which also includes Freberg's equally brilliant "Xmas Dragnet".
So, I guess I need to come over sometime to make an MP3 of this and the Byrds tune you have, eh?
You're always welcome.  Or I can bring both to the next Club gathering.

Do we have a date set for next gathering?

Jon Carroll's brilliant rejoinder to all this absurd "war on Christmas" crap the fundies have been spewing:

And while I'm at it... how can Bill O'Reilly even get up in  the morning anymore, now that Stephen Colbert effectively neuters him every night on the "Cohl-bare Reh-pohr"?  That show is genius.


War on Christmas, my rectum.  What's made Christmas less meaningful are Christians.

The princess and I were discussing that the other night on the ferry.  Anyone have an idea?

Good article from a guy who is generally a drunken apologist for the war in Iraq, but nails it here, and nails Joe Scarborough to his own cross!

“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

http://www.capitolhillblue.com/artman/publish/printer_7779.shtml

Take this with a grain of salt, since the writer cites three unnamed sources as the basis for his quotes--so the potential is there for this to be just blogger spewage.  But given the news of the past week or so, I can certainly picture Our Fearless Leader acting in such a manner.

And it gives me chills.

Pat Robertson's foaming at the mouth again. Sez Ariel Sharon's stroke is retribution from God.  Oy.

Seriously, why are the Christian leaders in America not calling Robertson out on his shit, or at least disavowing his value system as not representative of the larger Christian community?  He's making y'all look bad, freal.  Lest anyone think his blusterings are high comedy -- I don't see anyone specifically distancing themselves from him, so why shouldn't I wonder if they're deep-down heart-of-hearts agreeing with the fucker?

Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton: Call this fucker out on his shit!!!

Amen, Brotha McCombs!

earlier I saw Keith Olbermann's "Countdown" on MSNBC, and he has a "3 worst people in the world" feature each day.  Today's Top 3:

#3 - the local (San Ramon) couple who left their kids home alone while they went to Vegas for New Year's

#2 - the anti-gay preacher (speaking of Christians) who got arrested for soliciting a male undercover cop for sex (LOVE that one -- he says he was "ministering to the police"!)

#1 - Robertson.

I don't know if the appropriate place is here on the movie thread, but I have an announcement to make:

FUCK UTAH.

http://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/Movies/01/08/brokeback.canceled.ap/index.html

They'll show horror movies, killings, decapitations ... but not faggot cowboys.  Am I generalizing one megaplex decision to all of Utah?  You bet the fuck I am.  I'm sick of theocracy and would love to see Utah out of the union almost as much as I would love to see the Pope get caught on tape shoving a crucifix up his own rectum.

ooh, you make the people run, the people run
when you gonna leave palestine, sharona?

ooh, you're just a simple one, a simple one
bleeding down the length of your spine, sharona

always giving up on the luck of the likud kind
never making up, making up for the wasted time
my, my, my, my, my, whoo!

(so this is the best my boss and i could come up with this morning after leaving the bar at five a.m. we'd been subjected to too much knack, natch, thanks to the d.j.)

Back to this... I hadn't heard about Gene Shalit's odd review of BB until this morning:

http://www.glaad.org/action/alerts_detail.php?id=3849#

What's really interesting here is that Shalit has an openly gay son.  So much for them liberal Noo Yawk Jews, eh?
