Damn right your old avatar was of GQ’s logo - in fact, isn’t that the magazine that features the same type of feminine, over-glamorized women that a certain FRANK MARKS has splattered all over his MySpace page??? http://www.myspace.com/veryfrank And how funny is it that, like Frank, you too are obsessed with bringing up how much Obama, Whoopi Goldberg, and gay marriage all suck. Not to mention you both happen to reside in the Los Angeles area. Too bad you’re so “traditional”, Jim, because I think you and Frank are soul mates - nay, TWIN FLAMES! …stop insulting our intelligence. Women are not as gullible and controllable as you obviously would like.

You know what they say about men who overcompensate about their love of sexy women don’t you Kryssi? You know what they say about men who constantly remind others they aren’t gay by flaunting scantily clad photos of women? Hmmmm…..me thinks he doth protest to much! And the bio….oh my Lord I never laughed so much in my life! Can you say schizophrenic, split personality. The typical online crap about how “nice a guy I am….just an average guy” then they hide behind the anonymous nature of the internet and post their true dark, bias and divisive beliefs. What a jerk this Frank guy is, a total loser. Boy I bet Jim is glad he isn’t Frank. Because Frank comes across as one of those loners, freaky, can’t get a friend or woman, has a nothing job, lives in a hovel kind of guys. :-)

Yes, I agree about the BLATANT cover-up that is intended by “protesting too much”. If I were a psycho-analyst of some kind, I would be BEGGING Frank to come on board as a client, as there are PLENTY of BIG bucks to be made off the countless layers of insecurity. I’ve never met anyone more in dire need of such extensive therapy. I will say this, though - when he is not arguing about politics, he had his moments (when he was briefly one of my MySpace friends). Debating is just not his thing, despite the delusions of grandeur he so proudly possesses where rationality and logic are concerned.

Well, I guess you could argue the Grand Dragon of the KKK has his good points. His sheet and hood is super white and rumored to be soft and fresh smelling from the dryer sheets. So, I guess any D*#k wad can indeed have redeeming values. :-)

I don’t suppoze thare haz ever lived a man without a single virtew. Even Judas Iskariot “went and hanged himself.” - Josh Billings. Why not surmise that Frank is Frank is Gulliver is Jim is probably also Dr. Klein? This organism had been attached to wow since day one. And he’s had a merry old time proving all his assumptions about women are true.

I’m really surprised by Helen Mirren. Wow, didn’t see that one coming.

Unfortunately, Helen Mirren is correct and she is wise to be on guard against the bitchy journalist, excluding, of course, our own Liz Smith. Mrs. Blair’s comments, I find the most interesting. She is not delusional and there is a firm record of Tony Blair moving the Labor Party away from the far Left and thereby gaining huge majorities in Parliament after years of Thatcherism, - similar to how Bill Clinton moved the Democratic Party to the center to counter Reaganism. But to compare her husband to Churchill is a bit premature. Mr. Blair’s legacy, I am sure, will be in the top tier of the Prime Ministers who were judged excellent but not quite great , a la Disraeli, Pitt and Churchill.

Just a minor clarification. Bill Clinton followed the Blair example by moving the Democratic Party to the center; Tony Blair did not follow the Clinton strategy.

“I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.” -Hillary Clinton discussing her 1996 visit to Bosnia “In what respect, Charlie?” -Sarah Palin in an interview with Charlie Gibson after being asked, “Do you agree with the Bush doctrine?” “If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman of any color, he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept.” -Geraldine Ferraro discussing Barack Obama “It will never work with all those Huns, wops and dagos.” -Britain’s Queen Mother on the EU, quoted by Edward Stourton in his book ‘It’s a PC World’. “I go three, maybe four times a year to get tested for sexually transmitted infections and most of the time I don’t even need to.” -Kelly Osborne on getting tested for sexually transmitted infections “This is not 1968 and the invasion of Czechoslovakia, where Russia can invade its neighbor, occupy a capital, overthrow a government and get away with it. Things have changed.” -Condoleezza Rice on military clashes between Russia and Georgia (oh the irony) “I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in Congress and find out, are they pro-America or anti-America? I think people would love to see an expose like that.” -Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann speaking on MSNBC’s Hardball “He would probably not last long, a black man in the position of president. They would kill him. Hillary is a very sharp lady. It might be calmer if she wins.” -Nobel Prize winner Doris Lessing on Barack Obama and the US presidency “He talks about it as though I had laid it all out there for the taking. I was the buffet and he just couldn’t resist the dessert. That’s not how it was.” -Monica Lewinsky on her encounters with Bill Clinton “Over the last week, I listened to you and, in the process, I found my own voice.” -Hillary Clinton

She says the moments with Palin—which she has been dreading because it has been an ugly week on the Republican campaign…have gone fine. She [Palin] asked me where my daughter was, Fey says. … She said Bristol could have babysat.” … “I feel clean about this, she [Fey] says. All these jokes were fair hits.” Vanity Fair January 2009
