<p>I have a question and I need a damn answer from the Obama administration. Who the hell is Leon Panetta and why the hell does he get to head the CIA? You&#8217;d think that in a time of global unrest Obama would use those elephant ears of his and listen to the war drums over in Russia, Iran, Palestine and choose someone who carries at least a little intelligence experience.</p>
<p>I commend him on keeping Gates as defense secretary and while his first pick for the head of the CIA was not perfect it was still a lot better than this idiot who we&#8217;re gonna have to trust. Its funny that everyone blamed Bush for not finding WMD&#8217;s (when they were obviously moved from Iraq to Syria) and while other things are to blame the major blame goes to faulty evidence by the CIA. You&#8217;d think Obama would take heed and make sure he gets someone who can at least read a classified document and know how to shut up his mouth and when to open it.</p>
<p>Well I&#8217;m not sorry for the morons who voted this joker in office. Your pay day has come.</p>

<p>This sounds interesting, former eBay CEO Meg Whitman plans to run for the highest office in the California government come 2010. Due to term limits on Arnald&#8217;s reign as the Governator Med Witman the 52-year-old Republican will be open to fight for the office in the coming elections.</p>
<p>While she has not announced it formally, due to the fact that she decided over the holiday season, she does plan to make the announcement official in a 4-6 weeks.</p>
<p>Witman stepped down from the boards of eBay, Procter &amp; Gamble Co. and DreamWorks SKG last week. She also retired after 10 years at the helm of eBay. A billionaire, she retains a 2 percent ownership stake in the online auction company.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Meg&#8217;s vision and leadership and her passion for the eBay community have helped create economic opportunity for millions of people worldwide and enabled us to build a dynamic portfolio of leading online businesses,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Her experience and insights will be missed, but Meg will always be a part of the eBay family, and we wish her the very best.&#8221; - <em>John Donahoe - eBay President and Chief Executive</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Mrs. Whitman is not a stranger to politics as she worked on both the Mitt Romney and John McCain campaign. Whitman has known Romney for quite a few years as they worked at Bain and Co. a global consulting firm before Romney left and started the company (Bain Capital) the venture capital firm that gave him his millions.</p>

I&#8217;m going to be frank about this.

<p>I&#8217;m going to be frank about this. All those who would like Israel to stop bombing the crap out of the Gaza strip why don&#8217;t you volunteer yourself to personally go down there and try and work things out peaceably? Yeah I thought so, no one wants to, yet Israel is supposed to reason why Hamas, a terrorist organization who doesn&#8217;t want any peace at all and was the instigator of the attacks by firing rockets at Israeli civilians.</p>
<p>Its funny how the news never reported what Hamas was doing but as soon as Israel retaliates you hear the UN and the good old USA telling them to shut down their guns. Well I&#8217;m glad that unlike France and soon to be the US Israel does not wait for the UN to fight their battles because if they did there would not be an Israel around today.</p>
<p>So I support the military assault. And I am with Israel to do any and everything in their power to keep their citizens safe. If Gaza and the Palestinians love their life so much they will offer those up to Israel who are behind the bombings of the Israeli cities. If not let them suffer the death of all those who wage terrorist acts against Israel or any civilized country for that matter.</p>

<p>Its kinda ironic because I was in <em>Grand Bahamas</em> back in November on vacation and now we&#8217;re hearing that<em> John Travolta&#8217;s</em> sixteen year old son has died due to an an injury sustained by hitting his head on the bathtub of in one of the rooms of the <em>Old Bahama Bay Hotel</em> where they were staying.</p>
<p>Jett had been known to suffer from seizures and his mother <em>Kelly Preston</em> said that he did suffer from <em>Kawasaki disease</em>.</p>
<blockquote><p>Our thoughts and prayers go out to John Travolta, Kelly Preston and their family on the tragic death of their son Jett. The Travolta family has become like family to us at Old Bahama Bay and we extend our deepest sympathies to them. - <span style="color: #808080;"><em>Robert Gidel</em>, president of Ginn Resorts, which owns Old Bahama Bay</span></p></blockquote>
<p>Jett was the family&#8217;s oldest son named after his fathers loves for airplanes. They also have a daughter, Ella Bleu born in 2000.</p>

Well what would you know, the most hated Republican women (by the democrats of course) has just been voted as the most desirable celebrity neighbor. According to Zillow.com  Sarah Palin was the most desirable celebrity closely followed by Oprah Winfrey and Michael Phelps.

<p>Well what would you know, the most hated Republican women (by the democrats of course) has just been voted as the most desirable celebrity neighbor. According to Zillow.com  Sarah Palin was the most desirable celebrity closely followed by Oprah Winfrey and Michael Phelps.</p>
<p>As for those who attract too much attention, they really do too well on the charts. Least among those was Britney Spears, Lindsey Lohan, David and Victoria Beckham, Rosie O&#8217;Donnell and surprisingly <a title="Joe the Plumber" href="http://nortonrelease.com/politics/joe-the-plumber/" target="_self">Joe the Plumber</a>.</p>
<p>I guess people dig soccer mom celebrities. Well that&#8217;s no surprise, Mrs. Palin is the only reason why McCain even had a chance. I just can happen to wonder where Obama would place on the list though.</p>

Well mainly because he and &#8220;Puff&#8221; Lenny Lipton were the ones who wrote the original &#8220;masterpiece&#8221; that was spoofed by Paul Shanklin.

<p> </p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #0000ff;">The sending of a Christmas greeting by Chip Saltsman to the members of the Republican National Committee that includes a recording of the so-called parody, &#8220;Barack the Magic Negro&#8221; is not only offensive, it is shocking and saddening in the extreme. It flies in the face of America&#8217;s deeply held hope for a new era in which common ground and mutual respect characterize the exchanges between our national leaders.</p>
<p>I and my co-writer of &#8220;Puff,&#8221; Lenny Lipton, have been eagerly awaiting an end to the mean-spiritedness, outright disrespect and bigotry that was commonplace prior to this last presidential election. What might have been wearily accepted as &#8220;the way it was&#8221; in the campaign, is now unacceptable. Obama is not a candidate. He is the President-Elect, and this song insults the office of the Presidency, the people who voted for him, as well as those who did not &#8212; and taking a children&#8217;s song and twisting it in such vulgar, mean-spirited way, is a slur to our entire country and our common agreement to move beyond racism.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;">It is almost unimaginable to me that Chip Saltzman who sent the CD, would seriously be considered for the top post of the Republican National Committee. Puff, himself, if asked, would certainly agree.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Well guess what Peter? I don&#8217;t give a damn and neither does the Republican party. And out of total contempt for this mans idiotic statement I shall once again give you the <a title="Barack the Magic Negro" href="http://nortonrelease.com/humor/video-barack-magic-negro/" target="_self">video to watch</a>.</span></p>

<p>In case you&#8217;re wondering exactly why I was so against the original <a href="http://nortonrelease.com/news/700-billion/">$700 billion bailout package</a> let me just inform you now that the government has extracted over $7 trillion from tax payers to keep the auto companies in business and all the other pork barrel spending projects. Not only that but all the environmental whackjobs are asking <em><a href="http://nortonrelease.com/humor/video-barack-magic-negro/">Barack the magic Negro</a></em>to set aside $10 billion to install solar panels on government buildings and install some type of alternative energy system in two government buildings.</p>
<p>To make matters worse every state ruled by liberal politicians are asking for billions of dollars to bail them out except for Florida (which is Republican), California (thanks to the Govornator) and New York (NYC) who has decided to raise the taxes on its families $4,000.</p>
<p>I knew this was coming, and that&#8217;s why I have recently come to the philosophy that unless we revolt against our corrupt politicians we will never be the same.</p>
