Would you happen to have the email addresses of those five who voted “no”? I can offer them a fantastic way to get out of debt.

You may find this funny, but I strongly object to your use of the prejudicial terms “tiny” and “small” in relation to penis size.

The correct medical term for the affliction is “weenus minimus”. Individual sufferers can be referred to as “erectorily challenged”, and as a collective we^H^Hthey prefer “people of langour”. Please show us^H^Hsufferers a modicum of respect by using the correct and preferred terminology.

HEY!! Don’t forget the ladies affected by this legislation! How will we know how to dramatically enlarge our bustline, without painful surgery?! Considering the inordinate amount of time all y’all men spend staring at said boobs, I’d think you’d want us to be improving them on a daily basis! I know I, as a well endowed female, eagerly read each and every one of those advertisments, hoping to improve on what nature has so generously provided. I fear now I shall never reach my goal of surpassing Dolly Parton.

sigh.

I applaud the Congress for this wise legislation. We all know how precious Internet bandwidth is. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to post some useless bit of trivia to the only one of the seven web logs I’ve started in the past year that I haven’t completely abandoned.

Thank god they aren’t going after the ones whose subject lines contain the beginning of a word or a sentence and then tail off into an incomprehensible jumble of numbers and letters…much like most legislation.

But I’m going to miss Vjkqdjpqd Vijmeiejer, and sieversonfsrdq, and my good friend Pixqsif Kelakyz. These are the only people who write me every day and if they are gone who will keep me company? Will congress validate my being with a daily, quick offer of bodily enhancement?

Gee, that means that this kind of stuff won’t be around….I got this from the Democratic Party yesterday:

This time, they have gone too far.

We know Republicans are willing to politicize the attacks of September 11. Karl Rove explicitly told them to do so in the 2002 elections, and the Republicans even sold a September 11 picture of George W. Bush to raise money.

But now the Bush attack machine has crossed the line again. The RNC has released an advertisement that questions our Democratic candidates’ commitment to keeping America secure. And they’re going to keep doing it — unless you help stop them.

Democrats and the American people are demanding honest answers from Bush on Iraq, on his State of the Union lies, and on why the White House leaked the identity of a CIA operative. But instead of leveling with the American people, Republicans are using a cheap political ploy to try and change the subject, accusing Democrats of “attacking the President for attacking the terrorists.”

Bush and the Republicans dream about a country with no debate and no dissent, where they are free to push their extremist agenda with no one standing up to stop them.

They will do anything — anything — to make that dream a reality. Over the next year, they will question your patriotism again and again and again. If you don’t support President Bush, they’ll say, you’re not supporting our troops and you don’t want to keep America safe.

It is reprehensible, and they don’t care.

We must do everything we can to take our country back. The Bush campaign will raise more than $200 million and the Republicans will raise hundreds of millions more. They will have a half billion dollars to stay in power. Everything you can give will make a difference.

We urge you to join the fight today. Show Bush and the Republicans that your patriotism means you will stand up to fight for your country.

Another four years under Bush and the Republicans is almost unimaginable. Let’s kick them out.

I’d much rather get this than the note I just got from Linda about refinancing my mortgage!

i agree with tom. though personally, i wish the email included such phrases as, “thoroughly beating bush and most of congress with a hilshire farm summer sausage” or “publicly flogging karl rove with the medicare bill.”
