Photography with the Left Eye

You can’t make this stuff up.

Wally Herger, Representative from California, encourages his constituents to commit acts of terrorism. I’m not sure why he’s not in jail yet. Honestly, he should be, and it would not be hard to find several federal statutes to prosecute him under.

Speaking of getting in uncomfortable positions….

The management at Photography with the Left Eye is always striving to improve your customer experience. And, as you know, the difficult economy has made it difficult to provide the same level of service as we have in the past; of course you are aware that other Left Eye Bloggers have adjusted their service levels, and as a result we must as well.

Finally, many of you are concerned about consequences of the blog post that we withdrew after it caused uncontrolled acceleration. Our CEO will be testifying before Congress shortly, but rest assured that we have taken steps to allow our readers to manually apply their brakes at any time while experiencing our blog posts, whether as a driver or passenger. We are certain that our political system is not responsible for any unintended acceleration, and are fully investigating all tea party and Glenn Beck mechanisms in our blogging systems.

With that said, we are immediately implementing a number of changes to enhance your experience. While we have previously allowed reading of posts in their entirely, we realize that not all customers need all aspects of our posts.

Beginning on December 14, 2005, we will implement a modest entry charge for all blog posts.

We will phase in the following other fees. (In order to be sure you don’t notice them, they will be listed as “information service fees” on your cell phone bill. What’s one more junk fee?)

Readers who actually read the text will receive a rebate, paid via a gift card for any Circuit City store.

Readers who only look at the photos will be billed additionally via your utility company, and will be eligible for a wide variety of products to enhance your sexual performance (check your email now…our system is so efficient that you may already have several!).

Comments will be free of charge, although any comment that flogs your get rich quick pyramid scheme will result in a recurring charge on your credit card bill, which can only be stopped by a personal visit to an unlisted address in Lagos, Nigeria.

Thank you for your patience. These changes will allow us to continue to provide the rich experience that you have come to expect from Photography from the Left Eye. We will continue to evaluate all of our revenue streams, and may make further adjustments to our payment policies from time to time. These changes will be reflected in our user agreement, which can be found on any public website.

Our democracy is in peril. And I actually think that is true. The ‘publican party seems to have one, and only one policy goal. Opposing anything initiated by Obama.

You know about the melodrama of the health care debate. And the whining about actually passing climate legislation (Lisa Murkowski tries to stop it even as her state starts to thaw and sink).

But there are the more hidden ones. Remember the ‘publican slogans asking members of Congress to give a “thumbs up or thumbs down vote” (on Bush nominees? Those crafty ‘publicans. Times have changed, and that is old thinking (I guess). How else to account for the fact that Senator Richard Shelby (R-AL) has put an extraordinary “blanket hold” on at least 70 nominations President Obama has sent to the Senate. Idiots.

I thought I’d never have anything nice to say about WPE (that would be Worst President Ever) George W. Bush.

But today I praise him for a simple, human statement, clearly meant to counter the absolute stupidity from Rush L.

Bush said simply that there ‘ought to be no politicization‘ of the response to the horrible aftermath of the earthquake in Haiti. Bravo.

And to Rush, who said, in so many words, that the US should not be helping Haiti, is an idiot.

Gosh, the options are too sweet. Edwin Meese and his whining about the Prop 8 case in San Francisco (remember…California voters took away the right of some people to marry) or Sarah Palin as commentator for Fox “news.”

Ok, the Sarahnator wins out. It’s just too rich to pass up.

Here’s what we have to look forward to:

A little truthiness. But not much truth.

Lotsa folksy say’ins, ya betcha

And when the going gets tough, you can betcha that Sarah will be going. She will have some other important thing to do. Also.
