Shades of Grey

This story is beyond strange when you think of the past antics and prejudices of Sen. Robert "KKK" Byrd against the coloured races within the US. The forces of hate toward the current governing body (ie. the Republican Party and President Bush) of the US must be extremely vexing to both Senator Byrd and to the Senate's lone African-American member, Barack Obama.

Definitely not Black and White:

"In the oddest political pairing in memory, the Senate's lone African-American member, Barack Obama, has become the number one campaigner for the Senate's only ex-Ku Klux Klansman, Sen. Robert Byrd."

I mean to say, (evil grin here) how demeaning for Senator Byrd to have it published world wide that a black man, yes a black man, raised more funds single-handedly, for Byrd's own re-election campaign next year.

Obama does not seem to have a problem, hell, must be all that stooping for the colour of money. "Move on," one way or another, has to be his personal motto.

Tax Gaffe - Piffle, my eye

"A published report says Senator Ted Kennedy has received tax breaks on his Washington home, even though he does not qualify for the deduction.

Kennedy's staff tells the Boston Herald that the senator never applied for the tax break and apparently received it in error. A spokeswoman says Kennedy plans to reimburse the District of Columbia government for the money."

Must be tough for Teddy, to see figures through the bottom of an empty fifth. Then, again, I wonder if he can even remember how to count. We forget he has had trouble recalling facts, but we all remember how he can swim.

Hillary Aide Trial :

"Hillary Clinton's former finance director David Rosen goes on trial today in a case that could have an impact on Clinton's political future.

Rosen, 40, is charged with three counts of making false statements to the Federal Election Commission regarding a star-studded fundraiser for Mrs. Clinton's 2000 Senate campaign."

Hmmm, event costs $1.2 million yet reported only $400,000, and the boss doesn't know. These pack of liars, including the leader Hillary Clinton, need to be given truth serum and then put on the witness stand. Maybe she can use Bill's line..."It all depends what the meaning of the word IS, is."

U.N. Moving ... to Brooklyn:

"United Nations delegates, welcome to ... Brooklyn?

U.N. planners have found commercial space across the East River in Brooklyn that could serve as a temporary home while the United Nations' iconic glass-and-steel headquarters in Manhattan gets a long-overdue renovation, Secretary-General Kofi Annan said in a report Monday."

How the mighty fall. Poor Koffing Anus has a potential problem of travel distances being further for his cronies to get to work. Who is he trying to fool? Koffing, work is something you know nothing about. Scandal, corruption, and lining your pockets, I agree, you do very well. A more suitable site for your office would be the middle of Central Park with all the other low-lifes.
