There’s a difference between Palin and Dan Quayle
Well, it’s been hours now, and McCain’s pick of Alaska Governor Sara Palin on Friday is apparently no joke after all.
Robert J. Elisberg has written an insightful article on Sara Palin’s qualifications for national office and on John McCain’s choice of ‘The Worst Vice-Presidential Nominee in U.S. History’:

As Elisberg notes, Dan Quayle was a sitting senator when tapped. And Gov. Palin voted against polar bears and supports oil drilling in ANWR.
But fascinating as Sara Palin as VP may seem, there’s one thing I’ve always noted to myself (since nothing in politics happens by accident):
when they divert all eyes toward one direction, we should pay more attention to where they’re NOT pointing. For that may just be where the real shell game is being played.

Here’s a limerick scratched in the litter box of Mr.A.Cat from July 2006, ‘Alaska’:

Mr.A. doesn’t think well of corrupt political thespians so it’s a wonder he follows Politics at all!

Sorry but it’s true: http://limslimericks.blogspot.com/2008/05/prez-campaign-rag.html
See the depths of what prez campaign fatigue can lead to? Even my cats are complaining (photo of Wiley included in above-linked post. He’s a longhaired beauty but oh so wumped out!)
cat writes limerick: Bush final SOTU
Princess Grace has reluctantly allowed me to post her short little limerick concerning tonight’s SOTU address: http://limslimericks.blogspot.com/2008/01/sotu-boo-hoo-12808.html
And you may see a black’n'white photo there of the lovely feline herself!
Michael Bloomberg: peep-eye!
http://starsoverwashington.blogspot.com/2007/06/michael-bloomberg.html links to today’s post on Michael Bloomberg’s natal chart with a few personality details, if you’re interested in the mayor.
He’s being coy about announcing his deep desire to be head-cheese-in-chief but he’d love a gulp, thanks!
Much Art continues to be created around here…hope you have time to drop by http://stores.lulu.com/judecowell/
for Downloadable Art Goodness for there you’ll find a new portrait of Nina Thomas, and the Neptune-inspired drawing, Diluvian Flux which still tidals along for you.
Plus, there’s a Spycat Rendevous revealed at http://limslimericks.blogspot.com
and you don’t see those very often…seems the walls have ears and cameras too!
Now keep your wits about you this Friday as Saturn and Neptune oppose one another for the third and final time this go-round…Saturn’s starkly truthful realism vs Neptune’s nebulous and idealistic inspirations…in a word, and with many thanks to Stephen Colbert, ‘truthiness’…so much a part of today’s propaganda and so obviously full of it.
Mr.A.Cat lims Goodling
If you’re a fan of the limerick and of the politics, mosey over to http://limslimericks.blogspot.com where I’ve just typed up the latest kitty ditty from Mr.A. Cat (formerly in service to our nation in some mysterious capacity which may never be fully divulged.) As you know, Monica Goodling, former Justice Dept/White House liason testified yesterday on Capitol Hill and her performance has received somewhat mixed reviews and was not quite the bombshell some expected. Or was it? I doubt Mr.A. had too high a hope that our above-the-law White House would be fingered (or pawed, as Mr.A. would meow) but you may want to read Mr.A’s rhyme upon the matter all the same. He expressed private reservations that the immunity Goodling was granted for her testimony was what it purported itself to be…but Mr.A. is of a tres suspicious breed!
Above you see a close-up of Princess Grace as she appreciates the sentiments of Mr.A. Cat and wonders if you will, too. Sweet kitty!

note: WordPress isn’t picking up my edit on http://limslimericks.blogspot.com above so I’m typing it again here–perhaps the updated link will be picked up eventually. Until then I assure you that Lim’s Limericks DOES exist and has not moved in spite of what you may hear…
Lulu’s in town
At last I got some drawings uploaded to my Lulu Storefront at http://stores.lulu.com/judecowell/ (including one named ‘Lulu Philippe’) so I hope you’ll bookmark for any future art forays you may indulge yourself in. More images will be added as time permits…plus, they’re downloadable just for you…easy!
And do let me know if there’s an image you’d like to find available at my Lulu Storefront and I’ll make it available if at all possible.
And you may wish to check out my latest political rhyme at:
