CAT Tracks for February 11, 2009 GO AWAY!

Okay...gotta let it out...been buggin' me for days!!!

Since (after last night), I'm in a pissy mood...

We are all familiar with the old political chant..."It's time for him to go!"

Well, for most of the last 8 years, that phrase has repeatedly bounced around in my head...enduring the outrageous misfortunes inflicted upon "We, the People" by our two most recent occupants of the United States Executive Branch.

Fortunately, as of noon on January 20th...my chant has been answered. Dubya has "left the building"...and taken the Devil with him, even though they apparently had to strap the Great Satan into a wheelchair and roll him out! (I told you I was pissy... Actually, I thought it fitting symbolism, since their actions crippled the country.)

Okay, now it is time to modify the chant..."It's time for her to go!"

Again, I have two candidates...one my old "friend", Sarah.

But, nudging out Sarah...hell, kneecapping Sarah...is "Nadyalina", our shining symbol of motherhood. (I had to somehow work a "mother" reference into this piece without totally losing the PG rating!)

God in Heaven...this woman needs SERIOUS help!

Although reportedly using her student loans to support her "growing family", "Nadyalina" promises that she WILL return to school...to take up COUNSELING.

Physician, heal thyself!!!

Palin won't be making CPAC appearance

From CNN Associate Political Editor Rebecca Sinderbrand

(CNN) — Sarah Palin will not be attending the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington later this month, her office confirmed to CNN Tuesday.

The Alaska governor had been expected to serve as the headline attraction at the three day event, which is also scheduled to include conservative icons like Newt Gingrich, Rush Limbaugh, and Ann Coulter. The presidential straw poll conducted at the annual Washington gathering is widely viewed as a reliable bellwether of conservative support. Several of the GOP’s past — and potentially future — presidential hopefuls are also slated to address the gathering, including Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul.

Palin spokesman Bill McAllister did not give a reason for the governor's decision, but did agree with one organizer's explanation that it would be difficult for the governor to visit in the middle of the state’s legislative session.

The former Republican vice presidential candidate, who recently launched SarahPAC to assist conservative candidates and cultivate a national network of supporters, visited Washington late last month to attend the exclusive Alfalfa Club dinner and several private events.

Octuplet mom patterning self on Angelina Jolie

The Scoop

Two pouty brunettes, one an Oscar-winning philanthropist and the other a single mother of 14, have captured America’s attention. Now, they share a magazine cover.

Life & Style has heard your worried cries that Nadya Suleman, the Whittier, Calif., woman who recently gave birth to octuplets, is morphing into Angelina Jolie, and has researched the resemblance.

“The similarities between Nadya and Angelina are uncanny,” plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Youn told Life & Style. “Their brows are almost identical, and they both have nice smooth foreheads.”

Youn, who obviously has not treated Suleman, said the megamom appears to have undergone surgical procedures, including lip augmentation and rhinoplasty, which make her resemble Jolie.

The similarities are more than skin deep. Both Suleman and Jolie are 33. Both are raising large broods of children (Angie’s is only up to six, but she says it’s still growing.)

But without an eight-figure income or Oscar-nominated partner, can Suleman provide Jolie’s hands-on brand of mothering to her new litter?

A neighbor in Whittier told Life & Style, “I just hope her 14 children get as much care and affection as Angelina gives to her family.”

On an interview Tuesday night on "Dateline NBC," Suleman had this to say: "I have never thought of Angelina Jolie except the last time I saw one of her movies. I think that was years ago. It is so far away from the place I'm in right now to think of think of any celebrity."

She also denied having her lips cosmetically changed.
