Words Can Kill – The Take On Iran – Bert Sugar is in Town
Hitler. Ahmadinejad, and now von Brunn. Words can kill. Hitler , the Iranian firebrand, and now the 88 year old von Brunn proved without a doubt that hate-filled words can translate into murder. Von Brunn obviously believed his deranged view of life. His attack on the Holocaust Museum last week was another tragic and wasteful act of a hate-driven human being.
Why do I write this? Because hate is quite alive in our society. Just look at some of the posted emails on this site. You might think some of the racial innuendos are clever. Let me make it clear: many of them are bad jokes. Words can be as dangerous as knives and bullets. Get the picture?
More on Ahmadinejad . His election is a real problem for the U.S. Will it make the hard liners more brazen? Probably. But it does show the world that the dictator and Holocaust denier is vulnerable. That vulnerability makes his look weak to the Islamic world that is not part of Iran, namely the Arab states who fear him.
Back home, Donovan McNabb will ink a contract that pays him more, but keeps the timetable of his original deal. GOOD DEAL FOR BOTH SIDES! Sports personalities who finish their careers in Philadelphia are idolized forever. The Eagles get to keep their quarterback happy, at least for now.
Welcome to Bert Sugar. The famed sportswriter is in town to promote his beautiful new book, “Bert Sugar’s Baseball Hall of Fame.” Bert was my guest on the most recent edition of Voice of Reason on the Comcast Network. The book is a masterpiece!

Good Day Larry!
Y’know, I gotta say that, for the nearly two years that I have spent between Iraq and Afghanistan and back, I have become pretty intimately familiar with tribalism at its worst. The memories of the people here are so long – they never forget anything, especially an unpaid debt. and if that debt is retribution for a perceived wrong, then so be it. There are still people in Iraq that are still grousing about the sacking of Baghdad in 1233! As if it is somehow ‘the West’s’ fault (when actually it was Hulagu Khan and his band who did Baghdad in). Granted, it sparked the Rennaissance movement in the 13th Century, but that has NOTHING to do with people today – at least as far as ‘responsibility’ for it goes. I have watched the wrangling in recent months between the Coalition Forces and the Iraqi Security Forces, and no matter what people say, you cannot change a tiger’s stripes. There are so many Sadddam-era leftovers in key positions of the pseudo-government here just waiting for June 30th and the full implementation of the Security Agreements. These people are no more ready to effectively take care of themselves come June 30th than we are ready to leave (but perhaps maybe now, we should).
Ahmadinejad is a product of the media. Both Western and Middle Eastern media give this joker what he wants: pubilicity and more of it. It seems as though any time he makes an utterance, the media sharks are ready to pounce and regale the world with his ramblings. I believe that the violence over the weekend is just a prelude to a long hot Summer in Iran.
Like him or not, Donovan Mcnabb IS the face of the Iggles. It would be really great to see the Birds do well this season, and for McNabb to have a career year.
How many people remembered that Flag Day (and the US Army’s 234th Birthday) was yesterday? It seems as though many of those who were so anxious to show their ‘patriotism’ by flying their flags atfer 9/11/2001 have gone away or back to sleep. How many homes, businesses and institutions do you see that have flags flying should have changed their flags out a long time ago? How many fly the flag 24/7 and do not have the respect to illuminate it porperly? How many people even know that there is a Flag Code for the United States Flag?
The press is making a large deal about Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu agreeing that there should be talks of a Palestinian Homeland. Take a look at the banner headlines, then read the ‘real story’. PM Netanyahu does not appear to be compromising the sovreignty of Israel or her security at this juncture, by having made it very clear that ANY prospect of a recognized hoomeland for Palestine would be predicated on being disarmed – so there isn’t much of a chance that this issue will be resolved any time soon!
God Bless America, and America… Bless God!!
“That vulnerability makes his look weak to the Islamic world that is not part of Iran, namely the Arab states who fear him.” What? Huh? When you only change your blog topic every 7-10 days please take an extra 10 minutes to proofread. If your Comcast schedule is to frantic please let the staff here at the Baldwin complex read over your text before publishing. They are busy too but are not prone to mistakes. We run a tight ship here.
Good morning Philadelphia! Seeing Andy Rooney visit my site last night reminded me of something I’ve always wanted to speak to you about. Did you ever wonder why Andy Rooney is on 60 Minutes anyway? 60 Minutes is still a highly rated show. #1 in it’s timeslot and one of the most watched shows each week regardless of time slot. 60 Minutes is the farm where CBS sends their good soldiers when they are too tired and old to contribute on a daily basis. They have a staff that siffs through a stack of news stories each week then decide on the best 2-4 stories for character assassination. The staff spends weeks researching and developing the story for 60 Minutes. They determine who is interviewed. They write the questions to ask in the interview. Then the ‘talent’ actually reads the questions in the interviews. A taxing but necessary evil. The staff then edits the interviews down to just the footage that puts the person being interviewed in the worst possible light and the most damning spin on the situation. Character assassination. Journalism at its worst. Indulgent network guys. That’s 60 Minutes. Oh brother. Say what you like about Dan Rather but at least he had too much integrity to be part of 60 Minutes’ hatchjobs. Anyway. That brings Andy Rooney into question. Is he simply comic relief at the end of another edgy character assassination? Is his cornball schtick supposed to leave us laughing and feeling good about ourselves after 55 minutes of character assassination and misinformation? Does anyone here find him even mildly amusing? Does he struggle each week to come up with 5 minutes of ‘amusing’ anecdotes? Does the staff write this as well? Do they borrow the writers from Letterman to write his monologue? Is there a ARod/Palin joke in the near future? It just seems so out of place on a show with such an edge and such an axe to grind. Humor out of place. Another pathetic old teleprompter reader sent to the CBS 60 Minutes farm. Do you even remember Morley Safer, Steve Kroft or Philadelphia’s own Ed Bradley from before 60 Minutes? I doubt it. Good network soldiers go to CBS’ 60 Minutes farm to rest. Did you ever wonder how long it will be before Katie Couric moves to 60 Minutes full time? Not long. Not long indeed.
Larry, more drivel my friend. You are either not trying or not capable anymore. The sock puppets are more compelling than you are these days…
Racism bad. Ya think?
Ahmadinejad bad for US. Really?
McNabb resigns with Iggles. Good news?
CN8 show promotion. Shocking.
I always thought that I was a dumb ass until I started reading The Larry Kane Report. It makes me feel like a friggen genius when I read Kane’s musings. “Let me make it clear: many of them are bad jokes”. That’s right Larry they are “jokes”! Although many many of them are bad. Actually the one about the “BAR” Mitzvah was a true story. While in jail a father threw a party for his son’s bar mitzvah. That was funny. So lighten up Larry….and if you don’t like to hear references about guys like Bernie Madoff, then tell the Bernie Madoffs of the world to quit duping people out of their fortunes.
1.20.13
1.20.13 =
a) End of an Error
b) Next Boston Tea Party
c) Next intelligent blog topic on this site
d) All of the above
Going… going…
Larry it appears all of your normal (make that regular) bloggers have gone on hiatus. Perhaps they to are summering here in the Hamptons. You know you have a standing invitation here at the Baldwin complex. Perhaps you could get more work done with fewer distractions. You could stockpile good blog topics like a squirrel storing nuts in the fall. Besides Billy is off doing another one of those awful reality shows.
Hey Alec I’m right here. Hello! What were you doing Bro before 30 Rock? Nada. I’m building a respectable resume here in LA thank you very much. Clearly I aspire to more than The Celebrity Apprentice. Even Danny is doing that lame I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! Back off Big Bro!
This has become the Baldwin Blog… all Baldwins all the time…
Must have been a tough weekend at the Letterman homestead. Dave again last night on his show apologized for one of thousands of bad jokes he’s said throughout his career. I didn’t hear the whole apology but apparently he doesn’t think it’s funny to accuse a 14 year old girl of having sex with Arod. Gee who would have thought that?
I’ve never “got” Dave’s humor. It must be a left wing liberal kind of funny. Not a ha…ha… funny, just a kind of “odd” funny. Like ain’t it odd that people even watch David Letterman?
SJ, I don’t regret the joke. In fact, I think the joke was hilarious. I only regret that CBS won’t back my creative genius. Well, actually my writers’ creative genius. I also regret that I was forced to go on the air and apologize for the joke. Come on, this is America. Anything goes. Why is it okay for me to bash a sitting US President for 8 years but one joke about a teenager and ARod and I’m in trouble? I maybe the only one that still thinks that I’m funny but trust me, I am.
Dave, how did such a nice Midwestern boy like yourself end up being such a hate mongering conduit for the New York Intelligentsia? Maybe it’s all those cocktail parties you attend in upper Manhattan. You’ve been brain washed by the effete elite liberal lefties that roam the island. They probably even laugh at all your jokes. Dave, little do you know that they are using you to pass on their ridiculous agenda. Come spend a week with me in Alaska. I’ll show you how funny you are when we go moose hunting.
Sarah, I appreciate the offer to moose hunt in Alaska. Really, I do. I’d rather blow my brains out here in Connecticut. I think that 24 hours with you would set my IQ back 30 years. By the way, Rocky and Bullwinkle say hi, you right wing nutjob!
Today’s my day. Kidney for breakfast. Mmmmm.
No. 14 isn’t Sarah Palin — way too articulate. She doesn’t know the word intelligensia. She’s too busy shopping! Besides, they’ve already shown themselves to be poor parents by permitting Bristol to get pregnant as a minor. The Palins are a bad backwater joke.
Like the Clintons?
It’s a lucky thing that God made it unnecessary for those like moolB oeL to practice abstinence. Try as they might the oeLs of the world couldn’t get a woman into bed………. even if they were able to get it up.
Last screening of “Barackalyspe Now” is scheduled for 1.19.13.
I love the smell of burning liberals in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn’t find one of ‘em, not one stinkin’ liberal body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like victory. Someday this war’s gonna end…
1.20.2013
Hey everybody don’t fall for the David Letterman ruse to get a lot of free publicity. My new show is up against his old humor and tired top ten lit. I can beat him hands down in the ratings even though he is trying to gain national attention with the Sarah Palin controversy. This old fart needs to return to his roots and start predicting the weather again. That’s all he’s good for anyways.
This blog is lame. I am lord abott, a genlman genius
ABC News officials Tuesday defended a planned White House-set special on health-care reform from charges by the Republican National Committee that it would be nothing more than a “glorified infomercial” to promote a Democratic agenda.
“Poppycock” is what ABC officials said, though in more official terms.
The dustup began when officials at the Republican National Committee got wind that ABC News would devote extensive coverage to the topic, including an interview with President Obama and the First Lady on “Good Morning America,” a White House-set telecast of “World News” and a one-hour prime-time town-hall type discussion with the President on health care on June 24.
“I am deeply concerned and disappointed with ABC’s astonishing decision to exclude opposing voices on this critical issue,” RNC Chief of Staff Ken McKay wrote in a letter to ABC News President David Westin. The letter received prominent play Tuesday on the Drudge Report.
Not so fast, said ABC officials, who maintain all sides of the argument will be represented.
“In the end, no one watching, listening to, or reading ABC News will lack for an understanding of all sides of these important questions,” ABC News Senior Vice President Kerry Smith said in a letter to the RNC.
ABC responded after it was suggested on the Drudge Web site that it had turned over control of the program to the Obama administration.
The audience and questions for the prime-time special will be selected by ABC and only ABC, according to a spokesman, and the goal is to have a balanced broadcast with various views.
“Our starting and ending point is to be informative and fair, thoughtful and thought-provoking,” said an ABC News spokesman. “We will be picking the audience for the conversation. And the goal in picking an audience is not to come up with a roomful of people who agree with one another.”
In his letter to McKay, the ABC exec said the RNC had set up “a number of false premises.”
The RNC had no further statement, according to a spokeswoman.
The RNC’s attack appears to be an example of how the party intends to fight the camera-friendly Obama administration, which just recently got two hours of prime-time coverage on NBC with Brian Williams, is now letting ABC into the White House, and is on television virtually every day with a presidential appearance.
Moreover, coverage of the First Lady as a style icon has all but reached the play-by-play level.
“I think it’s pretty obvious politics,” said Jay DeDapper, a veteran political reporter for WABC/Ch. 7 and WNBC/Ch. 4.
“When NBC essentially did a version of [MTV's] ‘Cribs’ in the White House a few weeks back under the guise of news, the GOP said nothing, leaving it to Jon Stewart to point out the obvious – there was no news value at all – it was a promotional stunt by NBC News accommodated by a White House happy to use the network to advance the administration’s political goals.
“In this case,” DeDapper said, “the RNC is finally doing what it should, from the political point of view, have done then.”
THE LAPDANCE CONTINUES….

Charlie don’t let the cat out of the bag. Are you staying here at the Baldwin complex over the 4th weekend? The Obamas will be here. We have a free bedroom in the visitor’s bungalow. The more the merrier!
Alec-If Michelle Obama is staying at your place you might want to put some extra support on her bed.Put it towards the “donkey zone” area if you get my drift.
All the beds at the Baldwin complex have extra support. We Baldwins tend to be stout, athletic types. You know sailors and polo players.
So House Republicans just voted against funding the troops in Iraq after they voted for it. Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
They’re playing conservative politics with the lives of the troops. They’re giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
House Republicans voted against shoring up the IMF although they previously voted to do so. Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
Q: What’s the difference between John Boehner, Newt Gingrich, and Sarah Palin?
A: Lipstick.
Sarah Palin is against earmarks, but she takes the money anyway.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
The Republicans wanted to “bomb Iran, bomb bomb Iran” last year, but now they’re criticizing Obama for not loving the country.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
Emerson said that a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, but the complete reversal of direction on every major issue is the hobgoblin of Republican minds.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
The same Republicans who spent the country into a massive debt during the boom years at the beginning of this century are now appointing themselves the guardians of the public fisc.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
Willow Palin is only 14 but she knows how to nasty. She’s a teenage baby, and she turns me on. I’d like to make her do a nasty on the White House lawn.
You can’t run a country from a book of religion, not by a lump or a heap or a smidgen of foolish rules from ancient date, designed to make you all feel great while you fold, spindle, and mutilate the unbelievers from a neighboring state.
Well I would expect that liberal rhetoric from oeL much like our former neighbor F Scott Fitzgerald. They are metaphorical like the light in the Great Gatsby. A great beacon of liberal thought. Ever shining. Ever bright. Sometimes lost in the fog but re-emerging in the dawn. But alas the light though constant makes no change or progress. And it taxes the worker to keep it lit brightly. Do not walk into the light.
Speaking of flip flops,the teleprompter in chief co sponsors a bill while in the Senate that would prohibit a President from firing an Inspector General without first getting congressional approval.As President he fires an Inspector General (Gerald Walpin)simply because the I.G.was onto a scam being run by Kevin Johnson,an Obama supporter.Johnson,a former N.B.A. player, (can’t win the N.B.A. title without a Johnson on the roster)is the current mayor of Sacramento.Hope.Change.I hope all you cool aid drinkers are enjoying this.
Leo-Are you responsible for the SEPTA hoax? The signs I mean,not the system itself.
1.20.13
YBP, obviously Obama’s sponsorship of the bill wasn’t successful because of opposition from another party. He is following the law as they wanted it. What’s wrong with that?
The criticism, on the other hand, shows a reversal of GOP thinking on the matter.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
“He is following the law as they wanted it.What’s wrong with that ?” You must be tired,have some more coffee.
Why, because the GOP frustrated the reform legislation Obama sponsored, leaving him to follow the status quo — which is obviously the outcome the GOP wanted when it prevented the bill from going through?
I don’t need more coffee, even if it is good to the last drop. Drip. Drop.
It’s the GOP that is more convoluted than four yogis playing Twister.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
Oh Leo you wacky wacky liberal. As the guru to all yogis I can promise you they have not been playing Twister. Ohhhh no. Not happening dude. You are wrong about this like you are wrong about everything else. Do not be bothering me with this childish game when I am deep in incantation. I was about to reach a transcendental state. Shame on you for bringing me here. But since I am here I must tell you that you are too old for that ponytail. You must cut it off at once. Do you think you are Dharma’s father?
I am lord abott and I a right about everthing.
Leo is not me, he is mostly wrong,but I like him
Because so many loathe him
He is a good man who worships liberalism instead of God
That’s okay, many worship me like god, and they are wise
Like leo,
There is a picture of larry kane from 1980
In a bathingg suit on the internet.
Its a fun picture, but reminded me of how much
We age in 29 years, kind of sad actually.
We are lucky to be young and healty
I am lord abott, a very handsome man, better
Looking and smarter than larry, and that is
Saying a lot.
I must be talking to the ponytailed Leo again. What is all this flip flop talk? Isn’t it beter to admit that you have made a mistake than continue to support bad policy? President Obama should be chastised by your press for firing the Inspector General. There should be a national outrage that he fired the IG to cover up a scam. But instead ABC and Charlie Gibson be doing an infomercial on his nationalize healthcare plan. This would never happen here in Nepal. Heads would roll. Literally. What is with the obsession of the US press to blindly support the current President in all of his initiatives? They killed President Bush for 8 years. Why does this new President have carte blanche to do whatever he wants? Are there no checks and balances in your system? Wery bad charma. Wery bad charma. Leo you must be cutting off that ponytail. 50 year old men look ridiculous in ponytail. Ponytail does not hide bald spot.
This is picture of “Leo” in pontail. You be the judge.
http://www.theonion.com/content/node/30082
Dalai old pal. How is it hanging? How about swinging by the Baldwin complex over the 4th? We could use some good charma here.
Ohhh Alec you a funny man. I go to the United States I wisit Beverly. Hills that is. Swimming pools, movie stars. Much bad charma but weather great. I be staying away from New York City. Not a good place to wisit if you are from my part of the world. If you get my drift and I know you do. By the way Alec 30 Rock will get cancelled by NBC by midseason next year. Better start looking for new job.
Lame-a, the press was in bed with Bush up until it woke up and discovered that his administration manufactured the entire case to go to war against Iraq. The post 9/11 love fest was sickening, and the NYT was his biggest cheerleader. I don’t know what you’re talking about “my press.”
What is funny is that GOPers shouted down anyone who raised questions back then or who wouldn’t blindly follow Bush, calling them unpatriotic and claiming they gave aid and comfort to the enemy. Well, shoe’s on the other foot now. We have an economic crisis brought on by the poor leadership and failed policies of the Bush administration. Obama is fighting a war to regain the U.S.’s economic health. Detractors are unpatriotic and give aid and comfort to America’s enemies in the world by failing to support their leader in a time of crisis and peril. If the press isn’t asking enough questions, it’s only because they’re repeating their Bush lovefest of 2001-2004.
For a Lame-a, you don’t know much. Of course your wisdom is like pointing a finger at the moon. And you’ve been stuck at high altitude with nothing but tea, so your mental infirmity isn’t surprising. Eat a sammich. You look like a bag full of antlers.
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
Flip flop on this angry man. Chill out. Read a book. Get a clue. Cutoff ponytail. You need to become one with universe. At least be one with reality. It is all slipping away. Grab on to reality while you can.
your holiness dalai lama,i think you hit a nerve with leo with the pony tail bald spot,,your holiness,the american flag is another of leo’s sore spots..
Ohhh Jack Russell you are a wery wise man. Wise beyond your years. You are one with your universe. You have good charma. PT Leo will not be happy until stars and stripes on flag replaced by hammer ans sickle. This too should happen soon as America becomes a Euro socialist state.
Lame-a, you should know that calling me angry doesn’t make it so. Perhaps you should meditate on the fact that you have played appeasement footsie with the Chinese government too long so that you could soak up glory in exile while your people suffered in Tibet.
Why do I get the feeling that this whole column is one guy talking to himself?
A Fan you bring up a wery interesting thought. I do not think this is happening unless you are the one perpetrating the hoax. Are you? For your penance please say 3 Hail Buddas and 1 Our Budda. May your universe rest in peace.
A fan, I think there is at least one other person here and that person enjoys carrying on dialogs (and doing other things) with himself. I was away for several days, and it continued here while I was gone.
Lame-a, what is the sound of one sock puppet master fapping with one hand in a sock puppet and the other on his junk?
I would not desecrate the sanctity of the human body in the way you describe. Why don’t you tell us from experience oh wise one. Is that the sound of the flip flop flip flop we keep hearing?
PT Leo please cut off your ponytail. You can donate it to Hair for Cancer Patients as a good cause. You will feel better about yourself. Other people will not think you look foolish. It will be one small step for Nirvana.
Leo I wouldn’t have figured you for one of those overaged guys with a ponytail. You sound too sophisticated for that sort of thing. I’m with the Dali on this one. Trim the tail!
Yo Larry ….where’s the tribute to me after being fired/retired. I’ve been a reporter here for many years and I expected you to honor me on my last day. What are you some kind of racist? I mean you gave Don Polec his dues. What important event did he ever report on ….the bag lady annual dance for aluminum cans?
John Blunt was an inarticlate man, but vert nice
Lord abott will miss how he wished happy birfday to one yearolds
He will now smoke Blunts for the rest of his days, its sad.
It is racist to not honor this mans body of work, he was
One of the great ones as larry would say.
Will he find work in another market? How old is he?
Lord abott wants to send him birfday wishes!
Do Iranians have the courage to riot and protest
Election because they see freedom and democracy
Takingg hold in Iraq??? Lord Abott believe that
If revoltion takes hold and pro west government
Comes to power it will be a huge dividend from
Iraq war. History may be very favorable
to GW Bush in 10 years. The axis of evil might
Be the axis of democratic capitalist countries.
Lord Abott believe this will happen, and I
Am the smartest poster on this blog. My BM
contains more IQ than most of you have in your brains
Especially larry, who is less intelligent
Than lord abott’s greyhound dog.
Good morning Philadelphia! Well I have to tell you boys and girls that I am very disappointed in all of you. The vile comments and deplorable personal attacks are very dispiriting. Much like the Phillies losing a September series to the Mets. Come on people you are better than that. Anyway. This situation reminds me of another discouraging circumstance. About 30 years ago I had established myself as the premier newscaster in Philly. I was about 40. Ethel is a couple years younger. We had a big ranch style house in Gladwyne at the time. On this particular September day I stumbled into the kitchen late morning. Ethel was on the phone. She was speaking quietly with someone. When I asked her who it was she said it was our neighbor nervously. I did not think a thing of it. My day started by getting in the car about 11AM. I’d detour over to Villanova and grab a hamburger at the Big Pixie drive up. That was one phenominal burger. The predecessor of the Big Mac I believe. Anyway. I’d cruise down the Schuykill Expressway arriving at Channel 6 about 12:30. I’d mingle with the little people at the station and engage in the watercooler banter with the secretaries. They treated me like a rock star. I’d have to say I was on a par with the Beatles popularity wise by 1982. No mid life crisis for me. I’m driving a Datsun 280ZX. Recession is not impacting the Kaighn household. Anyway. I remember the big story that day was Lech Walesa being released from prison. He was the Solidarity leader in Poland. Anyway. I got through our pre-newscast meetings. Rehearsed my opening stories. I did the 6 and 11 o’clock news and shot home after a drink by the station. I arrived back in Gladwyne around 1:30AM. Everyone was sound asleep. Another pop for me and into bed. Anyway. Each morning when I got up I began to determine a recurring trend. Ethel would be speaking furtively with someone and she would hang up when she saw me. Oh brother. Is she having an affair? But I’m Larry Kaighn. Sex symbol. Rock star. Big man on campus. Is this possible? I guessed she was a desperate housewife. Tired of shopping and cleaning. What do I do? Confront her? Have a private investigator follow her? Oh brother. Anyway. Well on Saturday October 12th 1982 it all became clear. I cameback from the Brynmawr Country Club after a round of golf to be surprised by a room full of friends. She had been planning a surprise birthday party for me. Oh brother. Did I feel badly. What kind of heel was I? How could I have questioned her fidelity? After all I am a rock star. Women everywhere wanted a peace of Larry Kaighn. Do you miss the Big Pixie as much as I do? What would I have done with the Lionel Ritchie tickets if she had been unfaithful?
What is happening on the Phila news scene? First Don Polec then Mike Strug now John Blunt, can Kathy Gandolfo be next on the chopping block. It looks like the well is running dry. Lack of viewers and ad revenues leads to major cuts on the street. No longer will we see Vernon Odim standing ouside some bodega reporting on some robery, or how about those row house fires that won’t have a reporter standing outside sadly stating that there were no smoke alarms in the place. Most of all I’ll miss the reporter with a ruler in hand measuring the snowfall amount in Lehigh Valley.
Lord Abott thinks the blogger who calls himself
Larry Kaighn might have more screws lose than me.
Mr Kaighn, I do not really enjoy reading your long stories
But I understand you have to do it. You
Have a thing called bloggers terrets syndtome.
I have it too, its just being recognized in the
Scientific community. I am hopeful it will
Allow me to go on social security disability.
There are so many great new government programs since obama.
I stopped paying my mortgage and credit cards$ the people
At ACORN told me I’d be a fool to pay, and they
Even showed me how not to pay electric bill and
Still not have service disrupted. The fools are
The ones like who pay taxes and the benefits
To support people like me. I am lord abott
And I have my hand in your pocket!

The Grand Old Sanctimonious Party is at it again. Family values!
Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.
Gary Papa sadly passed away today. If there was one guy on the local news beat that didn’t need to have cancer it was him. Nice man and truly devoted to his family and his profession. I’ll miss him and his enthusiasm for sports and life.
It’s a shame when a guy like gary pappa dies, he was relatively young, a sincere guy who knew his sports, unlike an old codger like me. Larry Kane knew him well and will write about his greatness sunday night right after i do my thing on 60 minutes. I’m going to talk about how confusing laxative labels are and why dont they just sell castor oil in big bottles for people to swig and clean themselves out the old fashioned way?
I have heard of the blogger terrets syndrome, I have it, but its more of a commentators terrets syndrome, I just say whatever nonesense comes to my mind and people really eat it up, plus they pay me for it. This blog is full of such blather and I just love it. Do you ever wonder…..
The Captain was away for a few days and sees that nothing really happened here. That Hamptons guy is a dirty dog. He should probably step down, as it seems the affair was only minor compared to the cover up. But is it worse than what John Conyers wife just did Leo? Why dont you ever provide links when democrats misbehave? Is it because of the thin grey pony tail with bald spot and because you talk like the teacher on south park and say mmmmmkay after every one of your sanctimonius statements? What? oh thats not the reason? I see, its because you are virtuous and smart, that’s what I thought. The Captain knows lots of people like you, they drive priuses and talk with their eyes closed. you should get royalties from mike judge, he bases some of his funniest stuff off of people like you, but you knew that already and dont see the humor in that do you?
Andy why don’t you just pass away? And as for your Capt Crunch character ….not funny and not clever. You’re a moron with no sense of humor.
Ohhhhh Leo you are such an angry man. Why you be so angry? All the red ink. Wery angry. Maybe you should go to a party instead of denigrating them. You need to get your groove on. You will never get anything on as long as you have that stupid ponytail. Who do you think you are? My Little Pony?
Leo why do you hate the conservatives so? What have they ever done to you to make you hate them so badly. You know we Baldwins are liberals thorough and thorough my like you. I may play a conservative on TV but I can assure you it is just acting. I don’t hate Republicans I just want to defeat them. The Dali Lama is correct about your anger. Of course the Dali is enlightened and generally right on target. Does that mean you really have a ponytail?
Lame-a, I’m not angry. I’m happy. Every time one of those family values spouting hypocrites goes out and cheats on his wife and gets caught makes me squeal with delight. Obviously, family values isn’t any real commitment from GOPers. It’s all talk. They keep dipping their wicks wherever they like, including, if you’re Rush Limbaugh, in 12-year old Haitian rent boys.
Leo, I hope thats not really you calling Rush limbaugh a gay pedophile. He is a big fat blowhard and recovering drug addict, but there’s no basis for such an accusation. You are mistaken, it’s Elmer Fudd who does such things, while he lisps and stammers with excitement.
Ohhhhhh Leo you are one angry man! Wery angry. Do you be working for Post Office? Or are your retired from Post Office. 30 years at 52? Anyway it sounds to me like you may be jealous of Rush’s alledged cabana boys. I think this is a topic for deep introspective. Meditate on that.

Thank you Dali LAma, thank you wise man. Leo cannot refute such facts, although he will try desperately. Its nice to get some balance in here, and lets agree both sides are pretty dirt, but the Democrats are just a bit worse, and those are the facts.
