Gene, you need to read Hedda Lettuce's blog before you discredit the
story.

Besides, why the uproar? Isn't this expected?

I did....

hanging in the White House. When I looked at the photo of the ball, it
was not my signature green color...."

Oh Gene, I expected much better of you. For some reason, you clipped
the rest of Hedda's post. Here, I'll put it up for you:

"Not only was my ball hanging in the White House, my blue ball is
hanging in the White House.

I may never get equal rights, I may never be blond and pencil thin, I
may never see Lady Gaga in concert this winter at Madison Square
Garden (I could not get a ticket) but one of my balls is hanging in
the White House with my name for all to see. Just for today that feels
a bit better than me having the right to marry.

Gosh, I'd expect that from Harry, but not from you.

They're all in denial... They deny that Obama has chairman Mao hanging
in the WH, they deny that the dems are primarily responsible for the
near collapse of the housing market and banking system, they deny that
Obama and the dems are intent on destroying the very fabric of what
makes this country great.

world.
I hope you'll join with me, as we try to change it..." -- Barrack
Obama

Change it, indeed. Obama is Carter redux. One term and he's out.

The Loogy and nomdeplum denials don't bother me. They're expected. But
the way Gene did it was a surprise, to me anyway.
