Highlights

This piece is written by Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude, Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix, Kat of Kat's Korner, Betty of Thomas Friedman is a Great Man, Mike of Mikey Likes It!, Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz, Ruth of Ruth's Report, Marcia of SICKOFITRADLZ, Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends and Wally of The Daily Jot. Unless otherwise noted, we picked all highlights.



"I Hate The War" and "Iraq snapshot" -- Two most requested highlights, C.I.'s Thursday snapshot (breaking the news that the White House finally released a copy of the treaty) and the Thursday night entry.


"Potatoe Pancakes in the Kitchen" -- Trina on the economy.



"Press deliberately lying" -- Ruth explains how the press attempts to manufacture consent on the treaty.





"Shove it up your ass, Carlos Fierro" -- we feel you, Betty.





"Kat's Korner: Labelle's neither 'back' nor 'now'" and "Kat's Korner: Break Up The Ass Kiss" --Kat's offered up two reviews. They're great, be sure to read them. Marcia's favorite is the first because, "I knew they were ripping off some song but couldn't place it. 'Oasis!' Yes." We also agree that Chrissie Hynde is one sick f**k.



Isaiah's The World Today Just Nuts "Tina Fey: America's Sour-Heart" -- Isaiah completes his three-parter with this one.



"Judge yells 'tyrant!' and tyrant collapses" -- Mike on the collapse.



"Academics killed during the Iraq War" -- a list, but an important one.



"The Times and that ever changing byline" -- Uh, who was the writer of the piece? Three different bylines? Does The New York Times just toss a coin to determine who gets the byline?





"heroes" -- Rebecca talks her TV passion.



"They were not 'pie fights'" -- No, they weren't and the Democratic Party primary will not be forgotten -- no matter how many whores try to make us forget.





"Scapegoating the Clintons to let Barack off da hook" and "Barack and his defenders" -- Marcia called it out first last week but we were all in agreement and Elaine took it to another level. She's right, we're not interested in highlighting your bad writing.





"Barack sings 'Hero'" and "THIS JUST IN! BARACK CROSS DRESSES AS MARIAH!" -- Cedric and Wally chart Barack practicing his scales (he's stuck on me-me-me).



"Now I don't believe I wanna see the morning" -- Betty writing about Thanksgiving.


"robert parry: complete moron" -- Robert Parry wanted change! Robert Parry loathes Robert Gates! Robert Parry supported Barack! Barack plans to keep Robert Gates as Secretary of Defense! As Nelson would say, ha-ha!



"Rejoice over Florida news (before they take it away!)," "The day Anita Bryant cried" and "The good and the bad" -- Marcia, Ruth and Stan cover the good news out of Florida.





"Isaiah, We Are Not Your Soldiers, Third" -- Mike covers Third and other things.



"Christmas movies" and "8, er 9, things I'm thankful for" -- Stan writes about Christmas films and Thanksgiving.



"Norman tells all!" & "THIS JUST IN! NORMAN SEES PEE-PEES EVERYWHERE!" and

"Norman discovers his girlish side" & "THIS JUST IN! NORMY LOVES BARACK!" -- Cedric and Wally explore Norman's strangely sexual fetishizing of Norman Solomon.
