going through the motions

"If we change this rule of 'Don't Ask, Dont Tell," he asked, "what are we going to do with these other rules?"

Nothing, you moron.

At the Senate Armed Services Committee hearing today on the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) expressed his concern that repealing the rule would pave the way for allowing “alcohol use, adultery, fraternization, and body art” in the military.

Yes, because there’s no drinking, sex, or tattoos in the military today, right? How could he be so out of touch with the military?

During the Vietnam War, Chambliss received five student deferments and was also given a medical deferment (1-Y) for bad knees due to a football injury.

Oh right, he never served. I have no problem with men and women who have chosen not to serve, but I do have a problem with those men and women saying things this ignorant about topics which they know nothing about.

And just so we’re all on the same page here, in the 2002 Senate race he ran ads that said this of his opponent, Max Cleland:

“Max Cleland says he has the courage to lead. But the record proves Max Cleland is just misleading.”

Max Cleland is a veteran who lost both legs and an arm in the Vietnam war. The same war Chambliss just happened to miss.

So, I just discovered the show 'Six Feet Under'

Yeah, really.

It’s awesome, but why did a sportscaster and a serial killer get together to run a funeral home!? That doesn’t make sense!

(I loved the show ‘Sports Night’ with that one guy. Brilliant writing.)

YAY! It’s the best show on earth, ever!

I love David & Nate & Ruth! My favorite show of all time! I hope you’re enjoying it!
