Fox News is Blue
I thought that Fox News was a Republican TV. But no ! According to the website Choosetheblue.com, that wants to convince Democrat voters to stop buying products from companies that give money to the Republicans, 61 % of the political contributions given by the employees of Fox News went to... the Democrats !
This news is so incredible that people at Choosetheblue.com received tons of e-mails asking them for an explanation. Here is what they say : "Many people have commented about the fact that News Corp, owner of Fox News, is a blue company whereas they would have expected it to be red. News Corp has many subsidiaries and many of them are in the entertainment industry which is traditionally very blue. This is reflected in the political donations given by the employees of News Corp as a whole."
That's right ! People who make Fox News... Don't even believe in it ! They vote for the Democrats. Not only do they vote for them, but they actually contribute to their political campaigns !
Maybe they wanted it to be a fair game. Maybe they thought : "Kerry is so lame. This is so easy. It takes all the fun out of disinforming the American people. Let's give them some money, so that they can pay for a decent candidate."
Or else, it was more like : "The Republicans will advertise their lies anyway. Somebody has to do the dirty job. One has to make a living, you know. But I feel bad about it." Maybe it's more like a redemption thing. Like admiring the landscape on board of a SUV. By the way, according to Choosetheblue.com, the only brand of car that is a good for a Democrat to buy is... Toyota ! No wonder why Democrats are depressed.
If your Toyota is equipped with a CD player, here's a nice song that was sent to me by a canadian friend. It's entitled Forgive Us We're Canadians. It has been written by a canadian band called The Arrogant Worms. They will perform at the Cultural center of the University of Cincinnati, Ohio on January 29. Maybe you should invite them to your place, so that you're able to listen to true canadian stuff. It goes :
Forgive Us We're Canadians
We always say we're sorry we like to stand in line
When you ask us how we're doing, we always say just fine!
Forgive us we're canadian, we try hard to be nice
You too can be canadian if you follow this advice
We disagree on everything but we try to be polite
And we don't beleive in violence, except on hockey night
Weve adopted Europen ways, replacing yards with meters
But we still must ask the question, how many miles in a litre?
Forgive us we're canadian, we try hard to be nice
You too can be canadian if you follow this advice
We could talk for hours on end about the constitution
Which is dry as toast but sure as heck beats war or reveloution
We don't much like to wave the flag we find patriotism shocking
So we celebrate on canada day by going cross border shopping
Forgive us we're canadian, we try hard to be nice
You too can be canadian if you follow this advice
We know how to dress for winter, we're not afraid of snow
And we love our country quietly, and hope quebec wont go
Forgive us we're canadian, and some might think us bland
But there's no where that we'd rather live....
That this vast and frozen land!
See you soon in Canada ! Goodbye America !

The "New Civil War"
It's not just liberals who think the U.S. is more divided now than it was during the Civil War.
Neo cons have been babbling about a "culture war" for decades now.
Red and Blue states now have less in common and are more culturally divided than the North and South were prior to the War Between the States.
After all, Blue States have more immigrants and we love French food.
As one ultra conservative writer wrote recently:" As long as we have the solid 20% conservative base, we can do anything we want without worrying about how the majority feels."
Any government that rules that way is looking for trouble.
I think the deciding moment will be if Roe vs Wade is overturned and Congress then follows with a nationwide ban on abortion.
That will be the last insult which will push Blue states over the edge!
Will Turkey be in the E.U.?
P.S. I love Canadians and they are welcome here in the U.S. anytime.
I live in a city that has almost a million expat Canadians living & working here.
About Turkey. We didn't say "no" to Turkey, but we didn't say "yes" either. We said "why not" and "see you in ten to fifteen years if you're still interested in joining the European union." In the meanwhile, there will be talks. On the one hand, Turkey is considered as a possible strategic asset, maybe of economical interest too. On the other hand, we fear the religious factor (although it's a non-religious state), we are afraid of the United States supporting the candidacy of Turkey in order to divide us, thus jeopardizing the European union's future.
About Red and Blue states. I can't imagine the blue states separating from the red states. Are we going to see Jude Law and Nicole Kidman all over again ?
This post has been removed by a blog administrator.
I hope not, nicole Kidman's accent was awful!
Bush should shut up when talking about Turkeys admittance into the E.U.
He is no one to tell European leaders how to run a country,
unless of course it's how to run a country into the ground.
Another late term abortion Resource... LifeLaw.org . A discussion forum for all that deals with such hot-button issues as late term abortion .
