7:00 PM - Following the Leader...Episode 10!
Category: News and Politics
Welcome to what is sure to be a awesome night. This is the 10th episode of the popular late night talk show now known as F.T.L. I am your host...Your Leader. There are a lot of exciting things planned for the coming episodes. Well, as always, before we begin the show, we have a few things to discuss.
First, I'm sure you are all aware Fidel Castro is ill. I know there are people who are happy about this. Now I'm not one to wish ill of anyone, but if anyone deserves a disease, it's Castro. Anyway, he's sick, and has left his brother in charge while he recovers. The general opinion is that he might not live too much longer. This is receiving huge cheers from the Cuban refugees in Miami. I just figure that if all goes well, maybe next time Clinton has the urge to roam, he can use a real Cuban cigar.
In relative news, Cuba bristled at U.S. President George W. Bush's call for democracy for the Communist island amid growing uncertainty after ailing President Fidel Castro. Bush urged Cubans to form a transitional government after 47 years under Castro.
I urge the Cuban people to work for democratic change on the island. We will support you in your effort to build a transitional government in a Cuba committed to democracy,'' Bush said on Thursday in his first public statement on Cuba since the announcement on Monday that Castro had stomach surgery. Is it possible for Bush to spread us any thinner? We are in so many people's shit our breath stinks. Help Cuba? Bush is actually trying to recreate the bay of pigs. And we all know how well that went. FUCK CUBA - SOMEBODY SAVE US!
Faced with growing outrage over his Anti-Semitic remarks when arrested last week, Mel Gibson offered a second apology, this time specifically imploring the forgiveness of Jews and asking for meetings with Jewish leaders who might help him find the appropriate path for healing. There is no excuse, nor should there be any tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses any kind of anti-Semitic remark, Mr. Gibson said in Tuesdays statement. He added "EVEN THOUGH THE JEWS KILLED CHRIST IT IS NO REASON TO BE RUDE - HAIL HITLER." JUST KIDDING. Now for tonight's topic.
Tonight's TOPIC/QUESTION: We've all heard of Mel Gibson's latest anti-semetic tyrade during his DWI arrest this week. Is it fair to assume that his views towards the jewish population surfaced from some deep hate or all we all guilty of racist behavior at some point in our lives? Is it an innate in some small way to feel more a kin to people of the same color, sex, age? Is society too sensitive at times to strive to remain politically correct?

7:28 PM - Following the Leader...Episode 9!
Category: News and Politics
*SORRY WE GOT STARTED A BIT LATE TONIGHT...MYSPACE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES.
Well... Thank You... Thank You... Alright...Welcome Following the Leader with your host, YOUR LEADER. This is already shaping up to be another great show which wouldn't exist without everyone's participation, and for that, I am grateful. Before we hit the debates and use our first amendment rights with ruthless abandon, I would like to take this time to show you things you may have missed during your busy week... I hope you enjoy!
First bit of news, Nasa deleted the mention of "Home Planet" in there new revised mission statement. From 2002 untill 2006 Nasa's credo read as follows. "To understand and protect our home planet; to explore the universe and search for life; to inspire the next generation of explorers...as only Nasa can."
This year Nasa omitted " To understand and protect our home planet." and replaced it with "To pioneer the future in space exploration, scientific discovery and areo-nautics research."
Wait, this just in...Following the leader has a special news bulliten. Nasa has just revised the revision again, and here it is...
" To understand that we will not survive another 100 years; to explore a way to get the fuck off this home planet; to bail ass and save the wealthy...as only Nasa can."
In other reports, victims of disaster will have to tighten their wallets according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Victims of disaster who would have originally been given $2000 after a disaster such as hurricane Katrina, will now be making do on $500. The director of FEMA, David Pauilson, said the amount of money will be cut to "limit temptation to spend re-life money on anything but emergency needs." Congressional investigators have reported that FEMA "Lacked basic safeguards in varius programs and lost as much as 1.4 billion to con-artists and errors after Katrina hit in August of 2005. Here is a list of things FEMA will do to insure this doesn't happen again:
..1- Victims will no longer be given $2000 debit cards. Instead the $500 per- household will be deposited into bank accounts or given out as checks. Also, those who have no banks in which to cash a check, will be given a paddle so they can make their way up shit's creek.
..2- FEMA has hired an agency to verify the addresses and names of those in need. Yeah, great idea. I can see it now...
FEMA: where do you live?
Victim: In a box on the corner second from the left.
..3- Victims will have to register with FEMA before moving into government paid hotel rooms. Picture this one..."Excuse me bellhop, can you bring Mr. Johnson's trash bags back out to the typhoon. It appears he has forgotten his wallet."
Well, at least we know our government is good at covering their own ass should thousands of lives get wrecked by a natural disaster.
In other news, the Washington state supreme court decided to uphold it's ban on gay marriges in the state of Washington. It is the second court to do so this month. Both New York and Washington state say that their state constitutions do not warrant a permit for gays to attain marrige licenses. The court says that the legislators are "entitled to believe that limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples furthers the state's legitimate interests in procreation and the well being of children."
We caught up with a homo from Washington.
Excuse me, can we have a word? What woud you like to say to the judge of the case?
Response: Suck my dick.
Well, there you have it...you heard it here first.
TOPIC: USA today published a story recently on Andrea Yates. As you may recall, she was the mother who drowned five of her children in her bathtub. The verdict of guilty was overturned to a not-guilty by reason of insanity on Wednesday. According to a report done by USA today, the verdict reflects a healthy evolution in our society. They believe that people "should not be harshly punished for actions over which they had no control over". They said the public acted with restraint and compassion to the newfound verdict.
Click this link to read about the life of Andrea Yates leading up to the day she drowned her children. It also states the original sentence that was imposed upon her until it was overturned this past Wednesday.
QUESTION: Was justice done? Should Andrea Yates be found not guilty due to mental instability, serve thirty days in a maximum security hospital along with an undetermined time in a minimum security hospital, with yearly evaluations of which she could be set free.
Or has the judicial system failed; should Yates who killed her five children in her bathtub after her husband went to work be subject to the same laws and punishments as anyone else found guilty of the same crimes?

6:58 PM - Following the Leader...Episode 8!
Category: News and Politics
Welcome once again to FOLLOWING THE LEADER, the late night talk show with your host, YOUR LEADER, and anything and everything you need to know. Before we begin, I'd like to say I'm glad to see new faces every week. It's great to read different views. It keeps me humbled to the fact that I'm not always right. Wait...HUH? Who said that? Anyway, before I begin to babble on and on... Here's the news.
Yesterday Hezbollah's leader, Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, broadcast on Al-Jazeera stating his remorse for the killing of two Arab children during Northern Israel attacks. His official statement was to the family that was hit in Nazareth when he said, "On my behalf and my brothers', I apologize to this family. Some events like that happen. At any event, we consider those who were killed in Nazareth the martyrs for Palestine and martyrs for the nation. I pay my condolences to them."
Which translates to: I'm sincerely sorry for bombing your children, but these things happen!
"I can say at this moment, and assure without exaggeration, without psychological warfare, just facts, that the political leadership of Hezbollah has not been harmed,"
He then went back inside to his undisclosed mud-hole to finish his lunch of camel feces and sleep on a rock.
Back home, Senate Majority leader, Harry Reid, stated that he would bring the war issue back for discussion on the senate floor. Eric Ueland (Chief of Staff to Majority Leader Bill Frist) responded by saying "Talk about your bad summer re-runs. If they want to do that, we'll go to the mats."
Well, it's always nice to see them trivialize the deaths of over 6,000 Iraqi with a cheesy Hollywood refrence.
Another Republican aide was quoted as saying "We need to get the defense appropriations bill done and I would hope they would cooperate in using it to fund our troops, rather than engaging in partisan political games."
Hey I have a better idea. Bring the troops home and fuck the military spending it's taking to fund this war! It's a win/win!
This undated computer image shows
a 3-D reconstruction of a Neanderthal skull.
U.S. and German scientists launched a two-year project this Thursday to decipher the genetic code of the Neanderthal; a feat they hope will help deepen understanding of how modern humans' brains evolved. The Neanderthal project follows scientists' achievement last year in deciphering the DNA of the chimpanzee, our closest living relative. The closest realitive they were able to find still in habitation...we have this image given to us by top scientists and I wish to share it with you. So without further ado, I give you Cro-Magnon man:
The missing link was last seen at the g8 conference unaware of the modern marvel the microphone. You didn't think I was going to leave this one alone, did you?
Well, here are some excerpts you won't find in any paper. However, due to our in depth crack team of reporters here at Following the Leader, you'll read it tonight:
Bush to Blair on his reason for going: "G8 conference? I thought they said GRRREAT conference. Oh and I was hoping to see that cute tiger and ask him what his secret is! I mean, did you ever notice he never seems to age?"
Bush to Blair on the war: "I told congress, "Al- Jazeera", "Al- Quead"...we don't need to find Osama to stop the war - we need to find that guy Al."
Bush to Blair on immigration: "I asked the Governor of California what we should do about all the illegals coming over the border."
Blair to Bush: "What did he say?"
Bush to Blair: "I don't know. I kept sending him out of the room just to hear him say "I'll be back". Oh, that line always gets me. That funny little accent. He must be from Arkansas."
O.K., enough non-sense...on to the show!
TOPIC: After Hezbollah's attack on Israel July 12 (mainly the capture of two Israeli soilders and killing of seven others). Israel began a counter-offensive in hopes of pressuring Hezbollah to release the afore-mentioned soldiers. Hezbollah answered by attacking back with some of the 1000 missles on it's southern boarder. Now after some time the skirmish has blown in to an all-out war with Israel leading the forefront in a nearly one-sided battle. Some people such as Newt Gingrich(who released a statment earlier this week), believe Israel has the right to use all possible means to eliminate the terrorist threat from the Lebonese goverment and secure a peaceful boarder in Southern Lebanon. Others such as U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan (who Thursday called for an immediate end to hostilities between Israel and Hazbollah), believe that even thought Israel was provolked, they are using excessive force and the Lebanonese are innocent victims of surcumstance caught in the middle.
QUESTION: Is Israel using excessive force in Lebanon? and should they cease fire to allow some type of peaceful resolution?
Or is it the Lebonese goverment to blame for allowing the circumstances to get this far? Is Israel right to want to end the Hezbollah terror and allow the Lebonese to form a goverment free of radical terrorists?

6:57 PM - Following the Leader...Episode 7!
Category: News and Politics
Welcome back my friends to another episode of FOLLOWING THE LEADER with your host YOUR LEADER. I can't believe the chaos going on in the world today. Some major shit is brewin' and it ain't looking good for anyone. I hate to start the show on a down note, but I don't have much in the way of happy news. So, as always, before we get started, let me give you the scoop of what you may or may not have missed.
First I must tell you that the following stories are not in any particular order of importance.
THE U.S. ISN'T HEAR THIS EVENING...PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE...
Israel moved into Lebanon this week escalating already turbulant relations between the israelites and the palestinians. A terrorist group know as Hezbollah has taken credit for the kidnapping of two and killing of seven Israel soilders spurring the invasion. Hezbollah has major poitical pull in Lebanon, and although they have built churches and hospitals as a show of good will for the Lebanese, they have also been held accountable for several terrorist attacks such as the 1983 suicide truck bombings in Beirut that killed 241 U.S. Marines at the Marine barracks and 58 at the French military barracks. The 1996 suicide bombing of the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia, in which 19 are killed, was attributed to Hezbollah. Hezbollah was blamed for the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center in Argentina, in which 85 were killed. Hezbollah was founded in 1982 in response to the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. The word "hezbollah" means "party of God" in Arabic. Lebanon is urging a cease fire between the two and is seeking U.S. help in some type of a peace treaty. Yeah because we have nothing else to do but get involved over there. My advice control your shit yourself, release the prisoners, and move on.
HOMELAND STUPIDITY...
On July 11, the inspector for the department of homeland security released a report of "possible terrorist hotspots". Each state was told to give a list of what they feel are the state's "HOT SPOTS". Here are some of the spots on that list. And folks I couldn't make this stupid shit up if I tried. OLD MACDONALD'S PETTING ZOO of Woodville ALABAMA, the MULE DAY FESTIVAL in COLUMBIA TENNESSEE. Some of the other states listed things such as NIX'S CHECK CASHING, A DONUT SHOP, AN ICE CREAM PARLOR and something known as "bean feast". The National asset database shows Indiana with 8,591 potential targets while New York only has 5,687 and good old Cali. only 3212. These are the smartest minds on our security team who cut funding to New York on these findings. Virginia listed 2,126 public schools as treats while 8 other states listed none. The problem is, however, that the goverment wasn't clear on what does and does not constitute a threat. So they get the AMISH POPCORN COMPANY and all it's 5 employes on the list next to the Sears tower!
JAMES GANDOLFINI HURT IN MOPED ACCIDENT...
In other news, James Gandolfini has injured his knee in a taxi-scooter accident postponing the start date of the hit show's last 8 episodes. Fans of the show were quoted on-line as saying, "That show is still on the air?" I'm sure we all hope James is doing well but just for shits...
Q: Why is the moped like fat chic?
A: They're fun to ride but you don't want your friends seeing you on either one.
JUST KIDDING ALL YOU OVERSENSITIVE FEMALES OUT THERE, IT'S JUST A JOKE.
TOPIC/QUESTION:
With the world in upheaval (Isreal attacking Palastine, N.Korea testing missiles capable of hitting the U.S., Japan contemplating building a nuclear armorment to defend itself, illegal immigrants overrunning the boarders, bombs exploding in Mumbia India, and Iraq on the verge of a full scale civil war.)
Is it time for the U.S to stop playing big brother to the world, pull out our troops, and let the world defend itself?
Or, is being the largest world super power a necessary responsibility which includes helping those we think are being "oppresed", regardless of the consequences?

8:30 PM - Following the Leader...Episode 6!
Category: News and Politics
Alright, here we go on this wild rollercoaster ride we call "Following the leader"! I'll be your host, Your Leader. Before we get started...as usual, a few points of interest I'd like to note:
First, I was reading the paper the other day and came across an article I found enlightening. The British Ministry of Defense sent out a 500 page report on UFO's.
Research taken over the last 30 years on Unidentified Flying Objects has born no proof for the exsistnce of extraterrestrials. Well, there you go folks! The goverment says there's no aliens and there never were. That settles that in my mind! The goverment has always been so honest with us in the past. I mean, the evidence is air tight...they have a paper that says they don't exist. Yeah, I have a piece of paper saying my shit tastes like cotton candy and yet no one is standing in line to take a bite.
In other news pregnant pop princess Britney Spears is making headlines once again.
The newly darker haired Britney is posing nude on this month's issue of Harper's Bazzar magazine (a stunt strangely resembling the famous Vanity Fair Demi Moore prego cover shot). She is laid out, clad in only a smile, with her pivates covered just so as to not leave much to the imagination. Well, raise your hand if you didn't see this coming...big surprise! With that white trash husband of hers destroying her already tarnished image, she's one step from a seat on "The View". A slice of advice, Brit...dump the asshole and close your legs before he "Bobby Browns" your career.
Well last, but in no way least, I do have to say I really feel for those who have lost there homes due to the flooding in the mid atantic states. However, through tragedy comes a ray of sunshine as people who have escaped return when possible to there homes to survey the damage and try to pick up the pieces and move on. Like the man in this shot who's main concern is to ensure that the mailman came through on his creed of rain, sleet, etc.
Yeah, that could happen...my mailman won't deliver mail to my house if my car is too close to the box, but he'll truge his sorry ass through 5 feet of sewer water just so you can renew your subscription to Big, Black and Beautiful. Good luck, man, tell me how that works out for ya.
Well enough banter...on with the show!
TOPIC: An article in the New York Newsday stated there was to be a withdrawal of certain activities from school systems. Mainly those they feel promote violence or could cause possible injury of which the school system might be held liable. Some of these activites...we will call them "sports", include Dodgeball, Flag and/or touch football, soccer, and lastly tag.
QUESTION: Is it healthy for today's youth for the school system to cut sports or activities that may involve contact to avoid possible violence?

LIVE from LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK...it's FOLLOWING THE LEADER with your host...YOUR LEADER!!!
WoW! Welcome ... yeah... alright... yeah... I'm glad to see you all. Welcome to all of you who have been doing this since the beginning and welcome those who might be joining for the first time. We have an amazing show for you tonight. A lot of things to run through...issues from the important to the mundane, all with the same vigor. I hope you are all in good spirits this evening looking forward to a nice weekend. Before we get under-way, a few notes of interest.
Some bad news actually for those of you on the west coast. It seems wildfires continue to move across parts of New Mexico, Colorado, California and Arizona. Yeah not looking to good so far. As of yet, wildfires have swept across more than 3 million acres nationwide. More than four times last year's total for the same time period, the National Fire Information Center has informed us. Four times the wildfires! If that isn't the sign of the apocalypse...
...I hear rumors Michael Jackson says he wants to adopt. He's considering adopting two children from each continent. During his recent visit to Japan, Michael Jackson visited orphanages and was so touched by one of the orphans that he wants to take one home (No specifics on where exactly he was touched).
In other news, condoms. Get this- condoms have been found to protect women from cervical cancer.The virus HPV, which causes the cancer, is spread during sex from contact with sores, or lesions, that develop around infected cells. A three-year study of female college students -- all virgins at the start -- found that women whose partners always wore a condom during sex were 70 percent less likely to become infected with HPV than those whose partners used protection less than 5 percent of the time. Republicans aren't overly excited about this conclusion as they still believe abstinence is the only means of stopping the spread of S.T.D's. Another survey asked 100 college students whether they would abstain from sex to prevent the spread of disease. 7 aid yes, 22 aid no, and 31 aid they tried, but republicans just don't know DICK!
Alright! Tonight's topic is brought to us by...
Love Boat Captain
...so without further ado... Tonights Topic...
Topic: As all of you probably have read or heard about, lacrosse team members at Duke University have recently been accused of rape. As in every case, the identity of the alleged victim has been kept out of the public eye, whereas photos of the accused are easily viewable in any newspaper/tv show covering the case.
Question: This country stands on the virtue that, in this country we are "innocent until proven guilty". So, is the system justified when a man who has been accused of rape is not given the same privacy as his female accusor when a verdict has not yet been rendored?

Category: News and Politics
Hey welcome...
LIVE from LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK...it's FOLLOWING THE LEADER with your host... YOUR LEADER!!!
Welcome...Thank you...yeah...alright...I hope everyone is in good spirts looking forward to another well deserved weekend.
O.K., let's get going...we have alot to cover. So many things have been happening in the news lately. As always, with all the horrors, deaths and wars we need to take this time and reflect on the real problems in society, such as this...
Legendary newsman Dan Rather's career at CBS is over, and could officially come to a close next week.
"The finishing details are being put on a final arrangement, which will end my 44-plus years at CBS News," Rather, 74, told the Daily News yesterday.
However, he doesn't expect to be away from journalism for very long.
Rather's deal with the network was to expire in November. However, everything heated up yesterday after an unnamed CBS executive told the Washington Post there was "no room" for him at "60 Minutes."
"Under all those circumstances," Rather said, "I'm going to move onto the next step of my career."
(Which I am guessing will be ALZHEIMERS. I mean, dude, you're 74...your next step could break a hip.)
Everyone say, "YEAH HOMELAND SERCURITY!"...the following is a clip from the Daily News: prosecutors allege that a Homeland Security Department official sweet-talked a teen girl he planned to bed by boasting about his knowledge of shoulder-fired missiles and other goverment secrets.
Brian Doyle, 56, the former No. 2 spokesman at the department, spent endless hours on the phone and in America Online chat rooms telling a 14-year-old in Florida how he wanted to defile her, according to 387 pages of evidence investigators presented to a court.
He sent her chocolates and e-mailed porn videos. He even flirted with visiting her to have sex at a time of the month when she'd be least likely to get pregnant.
I see our homeland security high-tec computers are being put to good use. When the president said that homeland security would make our children sleep at night, I didn't know he was gonna send people to tuck them in!
Alright enough nonsense. We have a great show on the way...
Tonights Topic is brought to you by...
Maria
Topic: "An English-only ordering policy has thrust one of Philadelphia's best-known cheesesteak joints into the national immigration debate. Situated in a South Philadelphia immigrant neighborhood, Geno's -- which together with its chief rival, Pat's King of Steaks, forms the epicenter of an area described as "ground zero for cheesesteaks" -- has posted small signs telling customers, "This Is AMERICA: WHEN ORDERING 'SPEAK ENGLISH.'"
 
Question: Do we have the right as Americans to demand immigrants speak english?

Category: News and Politics
LIVE from LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK it's FOLLOWING THE LEADER with your host...YOUR LEADER!!!
Welcome once again! Before we move on to our amazing show, a few things have been happening that we would be negligent not to discuss...
First and foremost, there has actually been good news for the Bush administration this week. You would have to live in a dirt hut not to know that terrorist leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the coalition's most wanted man in Iraq, was killed in an airstrike near Baquba early Thursday morning.
 
Yeah, very good news indeed. The Iraqi ambassador to the U.S. was quoted as saying, "His organization has been responsible for the deaths of thousands of civilians in Iraq and abroad." WOW...THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE! IMAGINE THAT...THOUSANDS DEAD BY HIS HAND. And it only took 2,478 American deaths to acheive this according to the most recent death count. Congrats on the victory, Bush...we can all sleep better now.
In other news this week, Harvard will be starting to clone human embryos for stem cell research...
Research is aimed toward devising treatments for such ailments as diabetes, Lou Gehrig's disease, sickle-cell anemia,leukemia,diabetes, Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injury. Harvard has been privately funded in order to get around the federal financing ban. Bush was quoted in August of 2001 as saying "I strongly oppose human cloning, as do most Americans. We recoil at the idea of growing human beings for spare body parts, or creating life for our convenience. And while we must devote enormous energy to conquering disease, it is equally important that we pay attention to the moral concerns raised by the new frontier of human embryo stem cell research. Even the most noble ends do not justify any means." He was later quoted as saying, "Besides I've seen the movie Multiplicity, it all ends bad." Well...we have a big show for you tonight, so lets get to it. From Camp Hill, P.A., we have free writing, free thinking CROWNOFTHORNS here with us tonight. And from Tennessee...a women who needs no introduction, the always entertaining Jen Ska will be stopping in. So, stay tuned. Tonight's topic is brought to you by...
TOPIC:
Huge strides have been made in the realm of stem cell research. This has spawned a large amount of controversy raising concerns about scientific experimentation and societal values. Many wonder, just how far is too far?
QUESTION 1: Should we be able to manufacture life to preserve ourselves or eliminate disesase?

It's 10pm...Do you know where Your Leader is?
Right here!
LIVE from LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK it's FOLLOWING THE LEADER with your host... YOUR LEADER!!!
Hey! Welcome back! Welcome... Thank you all for... Please come on!! Alright, I'd like to thank you all for coming tonight in what is sure to be a great show. I'm really excited. But first, a few things have been hittin' the papers this week...Well, what about this? It turns out some shady things have been poppin' on da' mean streets. What streets do I mean? Why SESAME STREET, of course.
A high school in Brockton Mass has recently banned the wearing of TEE-SHIRTS that depict and glorify the "GANGSTER LIFESTYLE." The more popular of these shirts bear Jim Henson's beloved sesame street characters. Can you believe it? I'm not making this up. On one, Oscar the Grouch emerges from his garbage can, wielding a 9 mm handgun. On another, Bert and Ernie are standing in a gang posture, armed with automatic weapons. Man, what next? I mean, it couldn't possibly get any worse. Unless your on this show. In an attempt to keep up with the changing times, the muppets from sesame street in association with YOUR LEADER entertainment,bring you a brand new C.D. Featuring the new hit singles: "C is for crackhead", "I love it when you call me Big Birdie", and the multi-platinum Sesame Street remix...
"Haaazy days...
keepin da' hoes at baaay...
On my way, to see if I could score some tweeeeeak.
Just trying to represent...
down here on Sesame streeeeet.
Just shot up...everythings A.O.K...
Welfare checks came in the mail todaaay.
Gotta run from the coppers...
Down here on Sesame streeeeet...
Slinging hash on Sesame streeeeet...
Make fast cash on Sesame streeeet. "
Speaking of muppets...
...aging rocker Keith Richards has recovered fully after the head injury he recieved when he fell from a tree while on vacation in Fiji. Richards later had surgery in New Zealand to relieve pressure in his head. The surgery took longer than expected since the surgeons kept getting from contact.
Batwoman is a lesbian. Yep. DC Comics is resurrecting the classic comic book character as a lesbian, unveiling the new Batwoman in July in continuation with an ongoing weekly series that began earlier this year.
The 5-foot-10 superhero comes with flowing red hair, knee-high red boots adorning spiked heels, and a form-fitting black outfit. A spokesman for D.C. said, "You know what? Judge us by the story and character we created. We are confident that we are telling a great story with a strong, complex character."
...Yeah, who will also be half-naked, big breasted, and making out with other hot comic chicks. ROCK ON, D.C.! When confronted with the question, "will you be making a gay male hero?"
D.C. spokesmen replyed "EWWWWW."
All right folks we have a great show for you tonight. Here with us is the founder of "The MySpace Poet Society", and tonight's topic...
KIMBERLY
Also, bringing the romance back to poetry, TWINK SKA is in the house! The always contraversial, never trivial, RED BEARD will be here as well so stick around!
AND NOW, for tonight's starting topic:
In today's world, everyone is screaming for attention. No matter what group race religon sex oriantation everyone is trying to be heard.
Question 1: Do you feel that there should be limitations on what is put out into the public domain (eg. the afore-mentioned questionable sesame street characters and batwoman)?

LIVE FROM LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK...IT'S FOLLOWING THE LEADER! WITH YOUR HOST...YOUR LEADER!
Thank you! Thank you! No come on stop...Oh right...Thank you! There are some things I want to talk about. Lots of stuff has been happening in the news lately.
Have you seen this?
Another outbreak of bird flu in Indonesia. "In Geneva, the chief decision-making body for WHO approved without debate a resolution allowing countries to immediately introduce a fast reporting system to guard against the start of a possible flu pandemic."-Washington Post. There are concerns the virus may have been spread by human-to-human contact, he said. Human to human. Scientists believe the only way to stop the spread of bird flu is to stop it at the source by keeping infected birds indoors and feeding them lots of people soup!
There has been some controversy lately...Have you heard of this? A debate among psychologists has been raised over a so-called therapy for homosexuality. A small group of psychologists claim to be able to "cure" homosexuality by various means. Can you believe it? They says they can cure...being gay. When asked what some of these methods were, they replied, "One of the ideas we've been working on is getting a really large closet we could shove them all back into."
What else?
Oh, the material girl is making headlines again. Yeah, you know where this is going. Madonna, at the start of her new world tour, posed on a crucifix early this week during a stunt supposedly executed to increase Aids Awareness. Audience members were shocked. Not because of her mock portrayal of Jesus, but because she was wearing underwear!

Now...for tonight's starting topic:
The Davinci Code is a fictional book that attempts to shake the very foundations of Christianity and has caused some contraversy from some in the Christian sector who view it as blasphemous. Others embrace the book turned movie starring Tom Hanks, and view it from a factual angle. No riots, vandalism, or deaths have occured due to the protesting of the movie's opening, as compared to the carnage that insued when a danish newspaper printed a negitive cartoon of the "Prophet" Mohammad which was omitted from most U.S. papers due to the U.S.'s Respect for "religous sensitivites."
Question 1: Do you feel that Christians in this country receive the same "religous sensitive" press as other religions?
