I found this year in review post to be right on the money and wanted to share it with you here.

The ‘Fear in Review’: Diary of a Scared Congress

Dear Diary:

As a freshman Congressman from the Democratic Class of ‘06, I had high hopes of doing some serious ass Bush-kicking, but as things turned out, it looks as if we were whipped like a non-neo-con on a southern Cheney gang. Here are some of the lowlights:

1. Iraq. OK, we only worked on non-binding resolutions to restrict funding for Iraq, but we did manage to put them in a … binder! But I have to admit Dubya got the upper hand once again, claiming that we’d be a bunch of wusses unless we personally participated in the surge in Sadr City. Well, Xmas in Baghdad’s not exactly like home, especially since there’s not even enough electricity to light the tree. But the news is not all bad: Jack Murtha has collected another purple heart, and they say a pretty good fireworks show is expected on New Year’s Eve.

2. Iran. Speaking of non-binding resolutions, when are we finally gonna learn to read the small print on these damn Administration proposals. Now both the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, and the Democrat Party, are labeled “terrorist organizations.”

Montana First State To Ban “Why Are You Hitting Yourself?”

HELENA, Mont. (CAP) - In a stunning move today, the Montana State Senate ratified a controversial new law which bans children from playing the age-old game, “Why are you hitting yourself?”

Popular among American children since the 1930s, the rules of the game are simple: an older sibling sits on top of a younger sibling and then forces the younger child to pummel the living bejesus out of him or herself, all the while chanting rythmically, “Why are you hitting yourself?”

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), ), with more than 1.8 million members and supporters, is the largest animal rights organization in the world.

They wish not to be confused with the former owners of the PETA.org domain name, People Eating Tasty Animals.

Ingrid Newkirk of PETA tells WhoLetTheBlogOut.com Reporters that she is once again outraged. (We have learned that she rarely is found not to be outraged at something. “But this time it’s about the murderers who drive our roads”, she says.

As Cars Hit More Animals on Roads, Toll Rises

Ingrid says her surveillance caught this guy swerving away to miss an animal crossing the road but wants us to know that “this is not enough! Animals are still being hit by cars and we will not rest until every car is taken off the road!”

BOZEMAN, Mont. — On a dark highway near Anchorage, Specialist Steven Cavanaugh of the Army, who had survived 300 missions in Iraq, was critically injured in December when his vehicle hit a moose. Specialist Cavanaugh died Dec. 6.

Ingrid Newkirk of PETA tells WhoLetTheBlogOut.com Reporters that while she is not seeking the death penalty for hitting an animal on the road, she wishes to protect these animals at any cost.

During her work as a humane officer, Ingrid discovered the enormous amount of animal abuse taking place behind closed doors in laboratories, on factory farms, etc. She met Alex Pacheco when he volunteered at the shelter she worked at, and he gave her a copy of Peter Singer’s book Animal Liberation. It inspired her to found PETA in 1980 with the goals of investigating, publicizing and ending animal cruelty.

Since its founding, PETA has exposed horrific cruelty in animal laboratories, leading to canceled funding, closed facilities, and hundreds of charges filed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture; closed the largest horse-slaughtering operation in North America; convinced dozens of designers to stop using fur; cleaned up substandard animal shelters; helped schools find alternatives to dissection; provided information on vegetarianism, companion animal care, and countless other issues to millions of people.

And now vows she will get cars off the road as well!

In the early morning darkness in Lincoln, Mont., in October, a pickup slammed into a 830-pound grizzly bear. The driver survived, but the bear was among seven grizzlies — a record for one year — killed by vehicles this year statewide.

When asked about this case, Ingrid vowed to “Protect grizzly bears against murderous drivers everywhere. Our grizzlies are being killed by motor vehicles at the alarming rate of one time per, well . . . one time.”

In addition to the loss of life, the accidents can be expensive. The average cost of a deer collision is $8,000, including repair, towing and cleaning up the carcass, while hitting an elk averages $18,000. If the driver strikes a much larger moose, expenses average about $30,000.

Ingrid commented on this by saying that these killer drivers should also pay a fine, which of course would go right into the PETA fund for prosecuting drivers who murder animals.

This would seem to be a segment of an intestine from some creature that ingested the fender from an old DeSoto. In any case, it’s alarmingly aerodynamic, this meat; very modern and streamlined. Perhaps this recipe hails from the 1939 World’s Fair.

Note! the vegetables are strictly ornamental.

The Manly Man’s Cookbook. A must read for the holidays!

This has of course just been a parody and since PETA loves to sue anyone who crosses there path, we want you to know this is a parody. Ingrid said none of the above statements. Please don’t sue us Ingrid. I haven’t ran over an animal for a real long time. Well, do armadillos count? It wasn’t my fault. Really! The armadillo attacked my car! I was defending myself!

The Good Old Days
Grandpa and Grandpa were sitting in their porch rockers watching the beautiful sunset and reminiscing about “the good old days,” when Grandma turned to Grandpa and said, “Honey, do you remember when we first started dating and you used to just casually reach over and take my hand?”

Grandpa looked over at her, smiled and obligingly took her aged hand in his.

With a wry little smile, Grandma pressed a little farther, “Honey, do you remember how after we were engaged, you’d sometimes lean over and suddenly kiss me on the cheek?”

Grandpa leaned slowly toward Grandma and gave her a lingering kiss on her wrinkled cheek.

Growing bolder still, Grandma said, “Honey, do you remember how, after we were first married, you’d kind of nibble on my ear?”

Grandpa slowly got up from his rocker and headed into the house. Alarmed, Grandma said, “Honey, where are you going?”

Grandpa replied, “To get my teeth!”

Survivor In Da Hood

Fans of Survivor will recognize the formula: a group of people (all white, in this case) are set down in an unfamiliar environment where they not only must survive, but also compete against each other to see who will be the sole survivor. The Newark location, however, provides a number of interesting twists.
