BDS is alive in Olympia as protesters once again try to play the impeachment game.

Protest du Jour: Move the impeachment bill, already

Super Fat Tuesday seems as good a day as any for supporters  of Washington’s impeachment bill to rally at the state capital.

They’ll meet at the sundial on the capitol campus at noon, but will be canvassing both houses and legislative offices all day.

Impeachment advocates want SJM 8016, a bill “requesting an impeachment investigation into actions by President Bush and Vice President Cheney,” to be pulled out of the rules committee and sent to the floor for a vote. The legislation was recommended for passage by the Senate Committee on Government Operations & Elections on Jan. 22.

The protest today will encompass physically addressing state senators on the rules committee, as well as inundating their offices with calls, e-mails, etc.

Not that our lawmakers need their help to waste time.

But you know, her title is accurate in ways she likely did not consider.

Protest Du Jour is exactly what this is, because they seem to have a compulsive or pathological need to be unhappy with something.

I hope a Democrat wins the election.  It would be worth it to see the frustration of all those liberals with nothing left to bitch about.

Rosie O’Donnell brings us our second moment of levity as she blames Bush for a Staph infection she got 7 years ago.

Rosie O’Donnell Blames Bush for Staph Infection 

President Bush almost killed me. It’s true, and I have the scars to prove it — multiple scars that are part of the public record — you saw them in magazines and on my show, and you can see them on my blog frequently — no twelve year wait required.

It was 2000, and the Republican National Convention was on television. The whole affair felt something like a home invasion, with a chronically smirking and arrogant George W. Bush as ringleader. Not wishing to be robbed of my optimism and hope at the time — or to tumble into depression and despair — I shut off the TV and decided to go fishing.

I needed gear, so I went to the store and bought a few things, including a knife, which I used to cut the price tags off of the fishing poles.

Now, I could have stabbed myself 100 times in the hand and not managed to do the damage I did with that one poke to the inside of my middle finger. I went all out, though, and got everything — skin, ligaments, tendons, nerves. Maximum impact, including a particularly nasty staph infection that almost left me dead.

That’s my personal war story from the demoralizing Bush years, and probably a minor one, considering the 935 documented lies told by the Bush administration that thrust us into an unjust war, killing thousands of Iraqi civilians and nearly 4000 Americans.

So there you have it.  Bush lied and it almost made her cut her own hand off.

You seriously cannot make this stuff up….
