		<description>I wasn&#039;t referring to Paglia&#039;s extra-curricular activities..  :D

But she is dead on ballz right when it comes to how the Democrats are trying to paint Rush as the &quot;head&quot; of the GOP..

I mean, look at it seriously..  Imagine the laughter coming from the Left if the GOP attempted to paint Janneane Garafalo (have you seen her in &#039;24&#039;?? What the hell!!??) or Bill Maher or Babs Streisand as the &quot;head&quot; of the DNC..  The Dems would fall over themselves laughing and I would probably join them..

It&#039;s utterly and completely ridiculous to try and paint a civilian, and an entertainer no less, as the head of a political party.  They have no political power, they have no political clout.  They ENTERTAIN, fer chreest&#039;s sake!!!!

So Rush said that he hopes Obama fails.  B F D..  He is simply echoing what hundreds of thousands of Democrats said and thought about President Bush on Iraq and a host of other subjects...  Even within the hallowed pages of chrisweigant.com, the hopes that Bush would fail in Iraq were whispered and shouted from the roof tops...

It is on record as to how much I like and admire Obama...  But whoever advised him to get down in the mud with, of all people, RUSH LIMBAUGH surely deserves the boot..

I mean, seriously.. What&#039;s next??


&quot;I have ta tell you all, that Spongebob Squarepants must be the head of the GOP.  Did you see how he maligned my administration!??&quot;
-President Obama


Ridiculous...  Completely and utterly ridiculous...

		<description>Oh my God, Michale...are you alright!? 

Camille Paglia? I tried to get past the first few sentences but when I hit the part about the Carnival and &quot;more on that later&quot;...I could not bear to continue.

This is most certainly NOT an example of journalism that needs to be praised and highlighted.

&quot;...dazed lost lambs in the brave new world of... global statesmanship.&quot; What on God&#039;s green earth is she talking about!? Does she even know who the Vice President is? I&#039;d be willing to bet the farm - even if it&#039;s in Iowa - that she is clueless in that regard.</description>
