Lee Iacocca, Speaking *MY* Mind

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 13, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliNovember 29, 2011

Remember Lee Iacocca, the man who rescued Chrysler Corporation from it’s death throes? He is now 82 years old and has a new book. Here are some excerpts: “Am I the only guy in this country who’s fed up with what’s happening? Where the hell is our outrage? We should be screaming bloody murder. We’ve got a gang of clueless bozos steering our ship of state right over a cliff, we’ve got corporate gangsters stealing us blind, and we can’t even clean up after a hurricane much less build a hybrid car. But instead of getting mad, everyone sits around … Continue reading →

McBush: we’ll stay the course for 10,000 Years

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 29, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliDecember 5, 2011

There are other candidates who would be worse to have in the Oval Office, than John McCain…like, say, Hitler…..Stalin…..Ghengis Khan, Charles Manson, Jack the Ripper…

The First Idiot & His Right-Hand Dick

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 22, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 22, 2008

The First Idiot is once again revising the reasons for going to war. Now, it seems it is about Osama Bin Laden again and the economy. Funny, in an interview with Anne Curry on February 18th, Bush said, “I dont think so. I think actually the spending in the war might help with jobsbecause were buying equipment, and people are working. I think this economy is down because we built too many houses and the economys adjusting.” At any given time in the past, Idiot-extraordinaire Dubya said the war was about oh-so-many things–according to what his pea-brain thought would fly. … Continue reading →

Charity Begins At Home

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on February 11, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliFebruary 11, 2008

According to an article from Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego, A new large-scale, multidisciplinary ocean exploration program would increase the pace of discovery of new species, ecosystems, energy sources, seafloor features, pharmaceutical products, and artifacts, as well as improve understanding of the role oceans play in climate change, says a new congressionally mandated report from the National Academies’ National Research Council. Such a program should be run by a nonfederal organization and should encourage international participation, added the committee that wrote the report. At least seventy percent of our planet is covered with water, yet only 2% of … Continue reading →

Dubya Dubya Dubya Dot Con

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on December 6, 2007 by Kelli Jae BaeliDecember 6, 2007

There was this protest sign i saw that read: “Would someone please give Bush a Blowjob so We Can Impeach him?” I can think of no more succinct way of illustrating the absurdity of the situation. Tell me again, why was Clinton impeached for trying to cover up details in his sexual Indiscretions, while Dubya remains in office following a long list of truly High Crimes? The first of which was literally RIGGING an election. Isn’t it great when your friends own the voting machines? Isn’t it great when the general public don’t think much of the fact that NONE … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"I keep waiting for a bunch of torch-carrying village people to come get me...I don't mean VILLAGE PEOPLE...like Yyyyyyy--M--C--Aaaaaa. I don't know what those guys might carry. KY, perhaps Kaaaaaay--yyy-- Okay, not enough letters for that to fit the timing of the song...Anyway, no, Not Village People, Villagers. Torch-carrying Villagers. Hillary Clinton said it takes a village. But nothing is said of the Villagers themselves. Do they all carry torches? Or just the ones who are intolerant pyromaniacs?"

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)

Favorite Quotes

“If someone asked me to pick out my own vagina’s mug shot out of a lineup of vaginas, I’d be helpless. And probably concerned about what exactly my vagina had been doing that constituted a need for its own mug shot.” ...I just want to clarify that I don't mean 'without my vagina' like I didn't have it with me at the time. I just mean that I wasn't, you know...displaying it while I was at Starbucks. That's probably understood, but I thought I should clarify, since it's the first chapter and you don't know that much about me. So just to clarify, I always have my vagina with me. It's like my American Express card. (In that I don't leave home without it. Not that I use it to buy stuff with.)” ~Jenny Lawson, Let's Pretend This Never Happened
