Flashback

"Once upon a time you dressed so fine

You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?

People'd call, say "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"

You thought they were all kiddin' you."

~Bob Dylan, Like A Rolling Stone



That part of the song always makes me think of Ann Cunt Coulter. Author of the 2002 bestseller, Slander. Can you imagine a doll in her likeness? Very scary. This man was successful making talking George Bush dolls. And has the license to make an Ann Coulter doll, too. I've lobbed you a softball, guys. Who wants to field it? {skippy, maru, jim?}



Molly Ivins has a good column today. Code green Homeland alert: 'bought and paid for government'. {via: workingforchange}
