Can someone explain this show to me? In the past I've only seen a few random episodes, and that was enough to make my eyes glaze over. Someone at work told me to start watching this seaon from the beginning and I'd get hooked. I've made the effort, but I still can't grasp what the point is. On some reality shows people have to survive in the wilderness, race around the world, design dresses or cook. I have never seen such a void of purpose as Big Brother. It seems almost like a parody. I'm assuming the people are supposed to be attractive and interesting, but none of them are in any way, shape or form. The skeletal, whiny blonde is completely vile. The little tasks and challenges are so childish I had to wonder if they're all mildly retarded. I know all to well that bad can be so bad its a joy and wonder to behold (see Joan Crawford's Trog).

Big Brother is truly the slag heap of television. I've seen enough to know I don't care how it ends.

By the time he's out of office it will be in a resale shop somewhere. I never understood the majesty of that bullhorn moment. He seemed so small and impotent to me. He didn't seem comanding or reasuring. He looked like waht he is: a bumbling fool. He certainly didn't strike the image of the leader of the world's most powerful nation. If he had any balls at all he would have defiantly addressed the nation on the steps of the Capital ON September 11. Can you imagine any other president of recent history hiding like he did? Roosevelt? Kenedey? Clinton? Reagan? Eisenhower? Hell I don't think Nixon would have acted so cowardly.

Anyway, so the damn bullhorn is enshrined in the Smithsonian. Am I the only one who thinks Jackie's pink suit is hiden away in there as well?

Maybe he should come up with a black drag alter-ego.

Not long ago he he explained how his sons had performed service in their own right by traveling around badgering unsuspecting victims about thier religion.

What's next, they're serving their country by having sex and producing the soldiers of tomorrow?

But his obligation and duty should have been to resign.

It gives bigoted, christain heterosexuals the joy of saying :"My relationship is better than yours."

If civil unions give all the protection that gay couples need and deserve I'm all for it. "Marriage" drags with it all the trash religion heaps on it. I'd prefer a civil union myself.

I am more concered about the candidates positions on issues that directly affect the United States.

...can find a second or third wife to amuse himself with and do us all a favor and drop out of the presidential derby.

Why should Barack Obama regret his words when they were true. Although truth coming from someone running for office or from someone IN office is a pretty novel concept that might be hard for a slippery character like Mitt to grasp.

...to die for the neocons visions of Iraqui oil and giant contracts. They're showing the utmost of respect for the troops by allowing them to die for their noble (and profitable) cause.

Karl Rove is like Dorian Gray in reverse. He doesn't need a horrible and decaying portrait hidden away. His inner rot and ugliness is apparent just by looking at him. I predict Mr. Rove will one day get his just rewards. I doubt hi falbby, pastey ass will ever end up in prison, but his glory days are over and he's made to many enemies to escape.

Yeah, and high fives all around when Bush, Cheney and their crowd say that.

...a construction worker, Gonzales in leather, Snow like an Indian...

Paunchy, pallid, dull. He's the picture of the typical American: the person who piles themself into their car to drive to buy a gallon of milk, suspicious of anyone who doesn't fit into their neat and tidy pre-fad existence, resentful of people who have intellectual curiosity and open minds, gullible and more than happy to be coddled into believing only their lives have some God-given merit and virtue, bitter and hatefull towards anyone different, suspicious and fearfull. Karl Rove was a monmental success because he IS America.

I guess he has more self awareness than I thought. He IS a white whale.

The pinacle of Rove's career has been putting his boy in the White House and then sitting on his shoulder advising him every step of the way. The damage inflicted on this nation by the Bush administration is profound. If the Democrats have any smarts, they'll tar Rove with the disaster of the last seven years. Obviously he resigned so he could immerse himelf in the 08 election. Offence, not deffence. Make the stink around him so sickening he'll be a toxic association. Turn him into a liability. If Hillary Clinton and the Democrats waste their time trying to defend themselves against him then they've played right into his hands and he wins. He is one of the figures most responsible for the mess (messes) we're in. Ignore his insults and hold him responsible for his own actions.

I'm going to start sending out 9/11 cards and put a big plastic light up World Trade Center in front of my building. I'll leave some milk and cookies out for The Rescue Worker. And you know that big new coffee table book of Andy Warhol portraits? I sure hope I find it under the rubble 9/11 morning!!

Why don't we just turn it into a fucking holiday already? The rest of the civilzed world has to think we're nuts.

They can use bullhorns to take their vows, and the famous latticework wreckage can be hauled out as a gazebo.
