by Kurt LoderName this movie: An ace CIA operative, condemned as a rogue and now hunted by the Company, bashes and crashes his way through colorful foreign settings, pursued by heavily armed hit men, while back at Langley headquarters an inscrutable deputy director and one of his top lieutenants are arousing the...

I love the Muppets! My town, Doylestown, PA, recently hosted a retrospective exhibit of Jim Henson's career at the James Michener Museum. It was so much fun to learn about the genius and creativity of a great man, gone too soon. And another talent gone too soon, seen in this clip, John Denver. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas, everyone!

I miss John Denver.
Merry Christmas to all!
It's not exactly Christmas programming but Hulu added a very funny British sitcom from a couple years ago called Black Books, from the producers of Spaced and Shaun of the Dead. Feel free to sample an episode!

President Obama says, "The sun and surf will have to wait- it's the least I can do to get this healthcare bill passed."
The Swedish Chef, Lew Zealand, the boomerang fish-thrower, Miss Piggy…when TV entertainment was actually entertaining.
Take a hint, Hollywood, networks, and the rest of you lotus-eaters.
Damn! I'm right around the corner from Doylestown (ok maybe 30 minutes away) and I missed it!
He did have some great songs. Lots of corny ones, but some really good ones. Take Me Home Country Road comes to mind.
You guys might have to help me finish this. In respense to Senator Roland Burris' little Night Before Christmas revision, I started working on my own:
Twas the day before Christmas and all through the land,
The Senate was reaching into our pockets with both hands.
The people were bracing for this new wealth attack,
As Congress tightens the screw in our backs.
Tax your plan now, jail you if you don't pay,
None of this sounds like the American way.
Yea don't do us any favors BARRY. Friggin' dipsh*t anyway.
Socialists and commies in our white house right now,
taxing and spending, why they'll show you how.
Yeah, stick it real good to all of us working class schlubs and then jet off to Hawaii. What a terrible sacrifice to delay your glorious vacation for this noble cause. Don't worry Barry & Dems, you'll get your Christmas present from all of us in November 2010 and 2012!!
It's good to see:

No, not Santa, you bourgeois backslider!
Are they using duct tape?
Re: Congressman Stupak says WH wants him quiet on government-funded abortions being in Senate healthcare bill.
Watch this video closely and try to spot 49er fans sitting in the crowd:

Fed up with "Happy Holidays" instead of Merry Christmas? Check out this politically INcorrect Christmas song at: http://www.myspace.com/rogerweber
Fight against the War on Christmas!
Not a fan of Mr. Denver, probably should keep this to myself, but I thought of him as a
very hippy/Hollywood liberal. During the contrived gas shortage of the late 70s,
yes, I'm older than dirt, He purchased 1 or 2-5000 gallon gas tanks had them installed
and filled at his Colorado ranch. We didn't know the shortage was contrived at the time.
When the left was talking about conservation, don't fill your gas tank unless under half full, they hadn't yet thought of Prius or kill all SUV owners etc. yet. The lines at gas pumps were terribly long, I thought it was a very selfish thing to do at the time. I appreciate his talent but he was not someone I wanted to listen to.
Forgive my lack of sympathy as I walk outside to my truck, getting pelted with ice and snow, to go to a job I may or may not have after the first of the year. Thanks alot Barry.
Mom's in the nursing home and that ain't no fun
Dad's visiting his Senator pack'n his gun
Don't worry, they're working over time in DC in order to ensure you have the most comfortable state of dependency on government welfare that your tax money (minus over head, bribes, graft, etc.) can buy.
Unable to afford health insurance so I will be fined,
thank goodness they have yet to regulate bread lines.
So that's the definition of 'transparency.'
Yeah, that's a real tough choice Obama must be facing. Walk away from the mess he's created in Washington, or stick around to make sure he has a legacy? If all I cared about was my ego, I'd have a hard time deciding too.
And don't complain about the costs or some other lie,
because you're a racist, Reid'll tell you why.
Aww, lookit that!
It's:
THE ISLAND OF MISFIT POLS

Will they ever get to go home?
As I worked in my shop I heard such a noise
I went to the door thinking it was the boys,
but as I wondered and gazed in such fair delight
I realized it was Home Land Security that had such bright lights.
They roughed me and cuffed me and read me my rights and
wanted to know if I'd seen Santa that night.
Flake….That was a good read……
Hear hear!
Paine's Common Sense mentions this very thing. It boils down to: The elected should never form a group distinct from the electors. The elected must represent their electors, and that won't happen if the elected are in office for life.
My personal view is that we shouldn't have elections at all, but government office should be held by "winners" of a jury-selection style lottery. When your number comes up, then you get to serve senator duty.
Good post… We are facing change ..
this just in: Susan Sarandon & Tim Robbins splitting. the hollywood lefty power couple calling it quits? what's this crazy world coming to?
Thanks.
Merry Christmas!
Time to spread the Obamacare cheer to your Democrat Senator this holiday season!
SMILE! YOU'RE ON CANDID CAMERA!: HOLIDAY EDITION

lmao…I do believe they need to get secret service protection, because if they don't have fear for their lives for their actions then some fool will pop their bubble and then we will all pay. They are playing with fire so they need to be fired (handed a pink slip) from their job before this all falls apart into a firing line.
Dang, we all make a mighty fine writing team!
Snort! Cameron's 'Avatar' is being surpassed by ——- drum roll, please —— CHIPMUNKS!
http://www.deadline.com/hollywood/alvin-2-beating...
"Alvin and the Chipmunks" is outselling Avatar 52% to 33% in online ticket sales. Oh, the irony, the Schadenfreude. Snicker! Snicker! (Or rather 'squeak! squeak!')
Poor JohnDenver…perhaps an airplane is not the ideal do-it-yourself project.
The American people believe in redemption and second chances, which is good, but not when it is given to a politician. It is part of the original philosophy of America is to elect people who would fix some need and then good back to society and live under the rules that they created. The term re-elect spits in the face of that principle.
The old saying excuses are like axxholes everyone has one, well every politician has an excuse for failure.
Most states are fire at will, which translates your boss can fire you for good reason, bad reason, or no reason at all, and it is time to fire all politicians, so they can live under the rules they created. It is our duty to fire these politicians, so others can fix the problems that political greed has created.
There must be a chill wind blowing.
Was that fire them,or fire at them ??
I heard that's why Tim's divorcing her Steve.
