Camp Kerry must be polling the evangelicals again…

Democratic Sen. John Kerry called the Republican budget approved by the U.S. Senate “immoral” and said it will hurt cities like Manchester.

“As a Christian, as a Catholic, I think hard about those responsibilities that are moral and how you translate them into public life,” the Massachusetts senator said at a rally Saturday in support of Democratic Mayor Bob Baines, who is running for re-election.

“There is not anywhere in the three-year ministry of Jesus Christ, anything that remotely suggests – not one miracle, not one parable, not one utterance – that says you ought to cut children’s health care or take money from the poorest people in our nation to give it to the wealthiest people in our nation,” he said.

Hey, he’s right! The phrase “Children’s Health Care” doesn’t appear anywhere in the Bible. I had no idea John Kerry was a Bible scholar! I know who I’m voting for in 2008!

Puhleeze.

If you’re a fan, you better stock up now because it’ll be all gone soon.

Global drinks giant Coca-Cola is to end sales of three flavors in the US by the end of 2005.

Vanilla Coke, Vanilla Diet Coke and Diet Coke With Lemon are to be replaced by Diet Black Cherry Vanilla Coke and Black Cherry Vanilla Coke.

You know there are millions of addicted Coke drinkers who are contemplating suicide after hearing this news.

To me, the Diet Coke with Lemon tasted like someone sprayed Pledge in it, and the Vanilla Coke just plain tasted weird. Nothing like the ones made with real vanilla.

Here’s what I drink every day. It’s the 1 liter size Diet Coke. We order cases of these from Safeway.

No one better mess with this Diet Coke, for if they do, I won’t be held responsible for what I might do.

The AP’s Mike Glover must have been desperate to find a quote to contribute to this story.

Former Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle said Saturday that President Bush’s presidency “is essentially over” but warned that Democrats can’t count solely on Republican troubles to win in the next election.

“I don’t think it’s enough for us to watch the Republicans self-destruct,” Daschle said in an interview with The Associated Press. “I think it’s important for us to set forth some ideas that give the party an opportunity to define itself and to contrast with Republicans.”

Apparently, all of the other washed up Democrats were busy this weekend.

Not news right?

Dan Riehl examines the eulogy delivered by the former president during the funeral for Rosa Parks and finds that Bulba stretched the truth a bit.
