ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

With only THREE primaries left (Puerto Rico 55 Delegates, South Dakota 15 & Montana 16) , campaigns are sweating the decision of Dem BigWigs after Saturday's Marathon Democratic National Rules Committee meeting in DC. To Seat or Not to Seat? To Count the Votes or Not? The Dems really give new meaning to "Circular Firing Squad", don't they? So, as one would expect, this week's Sunday Bobbleheads will expound, dissect, rehash and elucidate what went on at the meeting and what possible outcomes may follow. First out of the gate is TERRY MCAULIFFE on This Snufagupolis with everybody's favorite "non-committed" delegate DONNA BRAZILLE on the panel. Duking it out on Face the Bob is CLAIRE MCCASKILL vs. ED RENDELL. Tune in U-Boat Captain Blitzer for a Tag-Team 5-way Steel Cage Death Match, as it seems he's invited EVERYBODY on his show! Meanwhile, SIMPLE SCOTTIE MCCLELLAND tries to sell more copies of his tell-all book on Meet the Tim. I don't know if you should throw bricks at him or not: We're glad more dirt is coming out about this Miserable Administration but Scottie LIED to EVERYBODY, REPEATEDLY, DAILY, during his tenure ad WH Press Shill. Wait one minute while the Brick TeeVee Crew takes a vote.......verdict in: THROW BRICKS! 60 Minutes mails it in. On yer prog talk radio tune in Massa in the Morning, as he will have his take on yesterday's meeting. LAST SUNDAY SHOW for SEDER, with some pre-recorded Book Club interviews including the one with NAOMI KLEIN. Sam will be LIVE the last half hour! Ring of Fire is solid as well. The Brick TeeVee Gardeners, still peeling thier sunburn, is proud of their new garden with 5 different kinds of beans, 4 different kinds of tomatos, 3 kinds of peppers, 2 kinds of cucumbers and miscellaneous plants from the gourd family! Now I just have to get them to stop fighting over who gets to hold the hose. The critter barrier is UP so now I just have to install the MOTION DETECTOR! HAHA!
