Barbara Bush Receives Heart Implant

Barbara Bush is recovering from heart surgery.

Which, means, I suppose that she just got implants because I don't recall there being a heart there previously.

boom bappa chee! Don't forget to tip your waitress.

Who Would've Guessed?

Not one of us. I did handicap him at 7.5 to 1 shot, but not with a male prostitute. Wowza. But now it seems kind of obvious. Like, the toupee should have been a tip-off.
Tengrain at Mock, Paper, Scissors is er, on top of this one.

Safe things to say about Senator Craig

So I'm a little late on the Craig um, circle jerk and from the um, reams of info at all t'other blogs I see that there is really not much to add.

Except that we can be pretty sure that Craig isn't going to be er, fingered as one of the senatorial clientele of the DC madame on that list Larry Flynt is carrying around.

It's fun to stay at the WHYYYYY EMMMMMSEEEEEAAAAAAAAA!!!

Wanna play Senatorial Sleaze Pool?

I would like to start a little game. It's a bit like Dead Pool, where you select a group of celebrities you think are going to die within the year. Points are assessed by how unlikely your pick is. In the past year, I think Anna Nicole Smith would get you decent points, but Gerald Ford was pretty obvious.

The inspiration for my game is the clip at Political Wire . Larry Flynt says that he will spill the beans on another senatorial customer of prostitutional delights and decadences. Flynt gives us a little teaser. He says "I was shocked, especially at one senator but..."

Hmmm. Ready to play? Who could the senator be that would shock,shock Larry Flynt?

Please leave your guesses in comments. I will do my best to unfairly handicap your choices with an unjustifiable points system. To help toward that end here are some thoughts:

Wayne Allard - given his anti-immigration bent, a Mexican prostitute might be shocking. 10 pts

Barbara Boxer - very shocking indeed! 50 pts

Sam Brownback - not shocking, practically expected. 2 pts

Robert Byrd - my first choice. I actually hope he is on the list. 50 pts.

Saxby Chambliss - see Brownback above. 2 pts.

Russell Feingold - this would hurt. I would not be shocked, I would be mortified. 10¹⁰⁰ pts.

Lindsey Graham - If the prostitute is anyone other than Jeff Gannon/Guckert. 10 pts

Joe Lieberman - shocking because I don't think he could pay someone to fuck him. 100 pts.

Trent Lott - not shocking, expected. Not even a black prostitute would shock given Lott's admiration for Strom Thurmond. 7.5 pts.

David Vitter - 0 points. Are you paying attention?

John McCain - only mildly shocking. Since there is nowhere to go but up for his campaign, it could actually provide some bounce. 25 pts.

Who it is not: Senator John Barrasso R-Wyoming. He's only been a senator since June 25, 2007. 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 oogle google points.

UPDATE: Look! I put the new poll feature up so you can vote there, too.
