So, am I paranoid?
« on: December 20, 2007, 06:41:39 AM »
Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, talking heads were talking about a pork-laden spending bill. Conversation was starting to get a trifle interesting.
 
Then around noonish, Britney's little sister turns up swelling.
 
And that seems to be the major story...
 
Sigh....

Apparently he thinks Britney Spears' sister got herself preggers to deflect attention to the pork laden spending bill.  I was unaware 16yos were so devoted to the cause...

So, if I'm reading you correctly...

You're saying Brittney's little sister got porked?

^Boooooo!
Beck was laying into everyone about the spending bill pretty good.  As soon as that show was over, there were two consecutive reports on Spears, it was depressingly hilarious.
He never brought you an unbalanced budget, which is a perennial joke. He never voted himself a wage increase and, to this day, gives back part of his salary every year. He has always voted to preserve the Constitution, cut government spending, lower healthcare costs, end the war on drugs, secure our borders with immigration reform and protect our civil liberties.

I just get the feeling that someone in Washington was really, really uptight right up until noonish...

Hey, Ms. Spears is NEWS . . . Shepard Smith on Fox News even has a nightly segment called "The Daily Brittany."
