Doc says ...

Amici:

He's back from his censored hissy fit ... le Doc:

Hey Chaz,

It seems for once I can contribute to the jock love fest that is Knucksline. Michael Vick has mentioned that he would like to have a dog again. He thinks it will aid in his rehabilitation. Can you imagine the terror shooting up and down the puppy aisle in Pets R Us when he walks through the door?

He said his kids were used to having dogs hanging around. I would guess that “hanging around” would be the key phrase there. Part of his sentence was that he could never have dogs again. So, the courts don’t trust him enough to own a dog, but they have no problem with him raising children.

In a similar story, Julian Assange of Wikileaks was released from prison today. He asked President Obama for the nuclear launch codes to show that there were no hard feelings. Obama said it would not be a problem as he was going on vacation anyway and that would be one less thing for him to worry about.

So the Bamster now has just as many enemies on the left as on the right. Isn’t life grand?

My favorite quote about the November election comes from P.J. O’Rourke. He said, “It wasn’t an election. It was a restraining order.” In spite of that, the Democrats are determined to shove just one more trillion dollar crap sandwich down our throats before they leave. Once again, the Republicans are talking about compromise. I swear, these Republicans have the survival instinct of a radish.

I’m looking forward to Saturday. My drinking shoes are polished. In the true spirit of Christmas, the fair-hearted Irish shall sit down with the felonious Eye-talian and break bread (pizza) and sip wine (Coors) in the house of the Lord (Casa Stella). Then we can discuss how you can curse like a tenth avenue hooker in Knucksline and I get edited for the vaguest reference to Michelle O’s gi-normous caboose.

“And the lion shall lie down with the lamb”
(of course you will have to replace the lamb every now and again)

See you on Saturday, brother
Doc

A little holiday cheer ...
