I was gonna read the new book, 'Killing Truth'

about the MANY lies of FOX sweetheart Bill O'Reilly, and I still might, but it would be a waste of time, cuz my opinion of the 'Big Bill, Bullshit Mountain Bloviator' couldn't get much lower.

Titled Killing Truth: The Lies And Legends Of Bill O’Reilly -- a play on O'Reilly's popular books Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, Killing Jesus and so on -- Boehlert's book paints the Fox News host as a pathological liar with an inferiority complex. The book salts old wounds, unearthing lies O'Reilly may have told about his accomplishments as a high school and college athlete, and spends ample time recounting his failure to ascend the slippery ladder of network news before landing at conservative powerhouse Fox.
"[W]hen you read chapter after chapter, from Argentina to El Salvador, to Northern Ireland to the LA riots, you really get a sense of a man who's almost desperate to reinvent his past and to concoct a resume of a courageous wartime reporter," Boehlert explained.
The e-book slams O'Reilly's employer, calling Fox News a "house of mirrors" where "facts are fungible and contradictions are professionally ignored." The text criticizes Fox's bitter defense of its host despite a wealth of evidence against him, and suggests the network is more like a cult than a news organization.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
