Starlings.

President Sheen. President Charlie Sheen, that is:

According to a new poll, independent voters say they favor Sheen over Sarah Palin by a 41/36 margin. USA Today

Certainly, this is good news for Meet the Press co-host John McCain.
(And his daughter Meghan, a leading political scientist who shags fly balls in shallow right field for Tina Brown's dippy softball team.)

Where have all the starbursts gone?
Bill Kristol (the grocery boy of stupid deliveries) throws the Mat-Su Valley Grifter under the snowmachine:

... to be honest I think she probably shouldn't be the Republican nominee for president. -- National Journal

Blackguard Irish

If you're planning a visit to the movies, here's a link to a video clip from Kill The Irishman, which is a story about the real life Celtic Club mobster Danny Greene and his war with old time mobster/rackateer Alex Birns and the Italians in Cleveland, Ohio in the mid-late 1970s. Back when Cleveland became known as "Bomb City USA". Watch this: The Irishman Danny Greene.

So here's to the Irish. And happy birthday to my grandfather who (ain't Irish, he was born in Italy) turns 104 years old today.

Salute.
