We’d have a lot more to talk about than the first lady’s flabulous arms.

It couldn’t be worse and still we’d have more to talk about than anything our current President can give us. The ever-so-suspicious, former presidential candidate, John Edwards, has admitted to fathering the “love” child with his former campaign videographer, Rielle Hunter.

Andrew Young, a former confidante to John Edwards, has written a disclosing book expected to hit shelves this week. The former Senator from North Carolina confessed his paternity of Hunter’s child to Elizabeth this past summer. It is unknown when the Edwards officially split, however a close source revealed it happened a while ago. On separating, Mr. Edwards has called it “an extraordinarily sad moment, but I love my children more than anything and still care deeply about Elizabeth.” When he says he loves his children, does that include the illegitimate child he has denied fatherhood its whole life? Bottom line, he loves his children, but after 32 years of marriage he does not love Elizabeth. Mr. Edwards has four children with Elizabeth, and his love child with Hunter makes a whole handful.

Edwards has denied his paternity of the child for more than a year saying his affair with Hunter had ended before she became pregnant. Good story… tell it walking John. His future ex-wife has been prepared for a divorce for the better part of a year. However, Elizabeth is still undergoing treatment for breast cancer, therefore she has yet to file the divorce. A close source says her decision to file likely depends of her condition.

More updates to come from this husband/father of the year… stay tuned

It may be time to conduct a new research study directed toward the possibility of bringing on another Ice Age, Mr. Gore. Last night in Miami, Iowa played Georgia Tech in the coldest Orange Bowl ever. This morning, Florida broke five of its previous record low temperatures: Tampa, 27; West Palm Beach, 34; Melbourne, 27; Daytona Beach, 28; Fort Myers, 30.

Today is -8 degrees in Glasgow, Montana. Mr. Gore may need to reevaluate some of the slides in his global warming documentation. Understandably, there is a difference between the current weather and overall climate of regions. However, Florida is not the only region experiencing bitter-cold temperatures. I am sure any residents in Glasgow, Montana would like to lock Al Gore out of their home and ask him, “Does that feel warm to you? How warm is it, would you say?”

It is sad because our population is spending billions of dollars on “green” products, fuel efficient automobiles, “alternative fuels”, “energy-saving” buildings, and investing in Al Gore’s nonsense, when they should really be investing in Hats, Gloves, Scarves and UGG’s. So build a fire in your fireplace and warm up your car for as long as you need to because Al Gore needs to come up with a new story.

Ease your airport anxiety and follow these helpful hints for flying this holiday season!

1) Pack Light- Ship your gifts rather than packing them with you. Most airlines are charging a checked bag fee, so it will be cost effective to ship your gifts. This allows you to carry on your light luggage, and skip the airline fees.

2) Check Your Weight- If you are checking your luggage, be sure to step on the scale before you head out. It is helpful to plan ahead for any additional checked baggage costs before you get to the airport. Checked baggage over 50 lbs. can cost about $50/ bag in addition to the checked bag fee. That will add up very quickly if you are not prepared. If you can, it will be helpful to weigh your bags before you head to the airport.

3) Lose the Liquids- Ditch or check your liquids over 3.4 oz/100ml because TSA (Transportation Security Administration) will confiscate all liquids over the indicated limit. Even if the liquid amount in a container is under the limit, but the container is over the limit, TSA will not allow you through security with the container. Also, detergent pens such as “Tide 3 Go” and “Shout” will also be taken at security. Check them in your luggage and you can clean up upon arrival at your destination.

4) Skip the Line, Check in online- Most airlines allow you check in online and print your boarding pass up to 24 hours before your scheduled flight. Online check in will save you some time from waiting in the check line when you arrive for your flight. Some airlines will also let you pay for you checked baggage online, speeding up the process in the curb-side and kiosk lines. Keep in mind the check in lines are generally longer than security, so sparing any time you can is a good way to travel stress free.

5) Park and Fly- Airport parking will be crowded and possibly sold out. Try reserving a spot through an off-site parking lot and shuttle into the airport. Most shuttle are super convenient and will pick you up with your luggage at your car. Avoid the parking crowd, and the cost could be about half the price of parking at the airport.

6) First Time Flyers- Unfortunately, this time of year brings a lot of beginner flyers to the airports. Be prepared for the slow lines and arrive a little earlier than usual. Give yourself a little extra time to compensate for the amateurs holding up the lines, this will help reduce irritability if you do happen to have to wait for someone new to airports.

7) Carry On Quick- Because of checked baggage fees, a lot of flyers are opting to carry on. The overheard space of the airplanes can fill up quickly. Be sure to board your aircraft as soon as you can so that you will have a space to stow your bag; even if you have to wait in the breezeway to the plane for 20 minutes.

8 ) BYOS (Bring Your Own Snacks)- Airlines are nickel and diming passengers for everything these days. I will be surprised if I can get a free napkin on a flight this week. Be a little self-sufficient and snacks, food, and a travel pillow or blanket with you. You can dodge unnecessary airline fees for these amenities, and surely your snacks from home will be better than the $6 snack you could purchase in flight.

9) Avoid Airport Rental- Renting a car from the airport has become incredibly expensive. More than twice the cost for renting off-site. If you can, take other transportation to get to another rental location or beg your family or friend to pick you up from the airport.

10) Cell Phone Lots- The arrival curb can be a cluster, so if you have a kind family member or friend picking you up, let them know most airports now have “cell phone lots” where they can park and wait until you call when you land at your destination.

11) Pack for Sanitization- Certainly no one wants to get sick during the holidays. Be sure to being along some sanitizing wipes or gel to keep you from catching germs during all travel. If you have wipes you can wipe down anything you’ll touch will on the aircraft, otherwise be sure to sanitize your hands frequently. And don’t touch your face as that is the fastest ways to catch germs.

12) Flight Status Check- You can check your flight status by entering your flight number into a Google search or you can even SMS Text Google with your flight number to get updates on your flight status. Also, if someone is picking you up from the airport, give them you flight details so they can track your flight and pick you up at the correct times. Airports are extremely busy at this time, and there can often be delays simply because of airport traffic.

It is extremely important to go with the flow while traveling, as flying can make many people very vulnerable. Especially this time of year, when everyone is stressed to get to their destination safely for the holidays. Being irritable or upset does not fix weather, de-icing, traffic or airplane delays. Compose yourself, keep your cool, relax and grab your snacks that hopefully you remembered to bring with you. Safe travels and happy holidays!

This week Sarah Palin was photographed on the beach in Hawaii wearing a McCain campaign visor, however she blacked out McCain’s name with a Sharpie. So maybe she is recycling a perfectly good visor, that she feels was “so last year.” Or… intentionally drawing attention to herself because, for liberal media, this qualifies as news.

That was not the case when Ms. Palin responded to the accusations her hat wearing behavior was a “frontal attack on Sen. John McCain.” Palin has explained it was a simple attempt to “be incognito” while on holiday in Hawaii. She made a statement, ” I am sorry if people took this silly incident the wrong way… I adore John McCain, support him 100% and will do everything I can to support his reelection. As everyone knows, I was honored and proud to run with him. And Todd and I were with him in D.C. just a week ago. So much for trying to be incognito.”

Where is the logic? Scribbling out your party’s campaign name on a visor is an effective solution to disguise yourself? This may be news to you Ms. Palin, but you couldn’t disguise yourself in a burqa. The message these photos signify is either pure ignorance, or she’s broke, in which the former seems more accurate. Her cognitive process while packing went something like this, “I need something to go incognito on the beach. I got it! I’ll just pack my McCain 08 visor.” Your new book was a bestseller from pre-orders alone, and you’re saying you couldn’t buy a new hat for vacation, better yet, pay someone to go buy a hat for you? I’m not buying what she’s selling. Ms. Palin it would be in your best interest to refrain from making further illogical decisions such as this, from here on out. Incognito or not, liberal media is all over you for anything and everything. Shockingly, this weak attempt to “be incognito” failed. What’s your address? I’ll send you a new hat as an early Christmas present.

Although Tiger Woods may be back in the fairway from the law, his personal life is still in the rough. He received a careless driving citation and four points on his driving record for his single car crash into a fire hydrant and tree. The Florida Highway Patrol has completed their investigation and Tiger is home free. Unfortunately for Tiger, that is not where trouble ends.

The same day his driving citation was issued, Mr. Woods released a statement regarding the recent events regretting his “transgressions”… err adulterous behaviors which have sparked a media whirlwind. John Daly is stoked because he may have just found himself a new Hooters wing man. Nike and Gatorade have both stated they are too heavily invested in Woods to cut his endorsements, and they are absolutely okay with Woods using their endorsements to pay some home wreckers off to keep their promiscuous mouths shut.

Even though his estimated worth is about a billion dollars, his current situation is reasonably undesirable. But who says money can’t buy love? For Tiger Woods anything has its price. He has reportedly offered his wife a seven digit Christmas present to withstand the union as well as renegotiated their prenuptial agreement. Americans and particularly sports fans are very forgiving to personal short comings and unless the big “D” is in Tiger’s near future the media will soon disperse. Especially when he attains his next victory on the Tour.

It is extremely disappointing for Tiger to be chalked up aside Kobe and the likes. However, with this notch on his belt, Tiger is now eligible to follow a career in politics if desired to do so. So if the intentions of his transgressions were political resume building, this media blitz has been a remarkable success.

Aside from being a millionaire, Michael Moore’s life must be miserable living in a frame of mind that is so unrealistic and hopeless. Maybe it is just words, that he makes a lot of money for, and when he’s done talking it doesn’t mean anything to him. Yesterday, Mr. Moore published an open letter he sent to President Obama. He is begging the President to reconsider his decision to send over 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan. He opens the letter saying, “Do you really want to be the new ‘war president’?” The best part is the seriousness of Mr. Moore’s letter. Apparently he missed the connection between the ongoing war to when Obama stepped into office. Therefore, Yes. Obama is the new Commander of the war. Apologies for the realism, Mr. Moore.

Mr. Moore believes there are “LESS than a hundred al-Qaeda left in Afghanistan,” and says there will be one hundred thousand troops “trying to crush a hundred guys living in caves.” He asks President Obama, “Are you serious? Have you drunk Bush’s Kool-Aid?” Oh, the irony! Are you serious, Mr. Moore? You did not consider the racist insinuation of that question? Dave Chapelle will be all over that material. Forget the Kool-Aid comment. You seriously think Al-Qaeda is the only threat to security? Not the Taliban and other independently operating radical Sunni movements allied with Al-Qaeda? This is why it would be miserable to live in your frame of mind. Where is the reality? And you’re neglecting Pakistan… probably intentionally.

Also, using the people who cried the night of his victory is not legitimate leverage for President Obama’s decision. The people who voted for him were not crying alone because the people who didn’t vote for him were crying as well. I recant my apologies because you can’t fix oblivious. My apologies are for the thousands of people who believe you.

…Because she loves meat so much!

In Palin’s newly released memoir, she has confessed her love for consuming meat. Her philosophy is that, “If God had not intended for us to eat animals, how come He made them out of meat?” This is a real excerpt from her book; she really wrote this. The intertextuality with Jessica Simpson and “Chicken of the Sea” is uncanny. At least Simpson did not pursue a career in politics. Ms. Palin then continues to say, ” there’s plenty of room for all Alaska’s animals– right next to the mashed potatoes.”

It is easy to laugh at the lack of intelligence in her statement, but the context in which she uses it is quite funny. Ms. Palin’s statement is poking fun at hosting a vegan for dinner at her home. She says, “I could whip them up a salad, then explain my philosophy on being a carnivore.” Most people can appreciate the humor, however she surely has angered a few PETA activists who “would rather go naked.” She continues, “I love meat… I eat pork chops, thick bacon burgers… But I especially love moose and caribou.” At least she didn’t say she likes to hunt and eat polar bear. She might, but she didn’t say it.

This Thanksgiving, Palin and her family will gather around a feast, celebrating gratitude, and she will be thankful that God made turkeys our of meat… so that we can eat them. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

“What’s so crazy about that?” Lou Dobbs replied, when asked about the possibility of a presidential bid. Earlier this month, Mr. Dobbs amicably parted ways with CNN “to pursue new opportunities,” Mr. Dobbs says, “It’s one of the discussions that we’re having.” The last of the original CNN anchors, Lou Dobbs was released from his contract after 29 years. However, he continues to anchor The Lou Dobbs show, his daily radio broadcast.

A loyal supporter launched loudobbsforpresident.org last January, in an effort to rally supporters for a potential bid in 2012. The creator of the website, William Gheen says, “Lou Dobbs would make a good president because he is truly a man of the people.” In nearly three decades as anchor , Mr. Dobbs has cast himself as a “tough, relentless, independent,” however a possible presidential bid may require him to endure “partisan nonsense” and lean right or left. He says, “I just don’t even know what to tell you in terms of where I’m leaning.” He said, “For the first time I’m actually listening to some people about politics,” rather than being listened to.

Mr. Dobbs is a strong advocate for legal immigration which could make him a favorable candidate in conservative circles. Run, illegal immigrants, run! Three years left to find a path to citizenship with Obama in the White House. Legal immigration and the broken borders of the U.S. are issues for which Mr. Dobbs is most wholehearted. Maybe Dobbs will remain loyal to his Independent political position, however the likeliness of success for an Independent candidate is marginal.

Recently, Kate Moss interviewed with a fashion website WWD. In that interview, she was asked what her motto is, where she answered one is “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.” Certainly, Kate Moss has made a very lucrative living as a delicate looking supermodel, which established a sort of trend in the modeling industry. However, there is no reason for her to be publicly criticized for a belief which shaped her life and supported what she has become. There is nothing “very unfortunate” about her words as one eating disorder activist has said. What is unfortunate is the global magnitude of the obesity epidemic, in children and adults.

The number of lives at risk as a result of diseases induced by the state of obesity are far greater than the number of folks suffering from malnourished eating disorders. Yes, they are both clinically diagnosed diseases, however eating disorders can no longer hold a candle to the enormity of obesity. Look at it from the other side, if Kristie Alley were to say, “everything tastes better than being healthy” which as a result becomes a motto on obesity support websites, that is far more concerning to me. If I had an obese child, spouse, parent, brother, or sister living by that motto, I would be very, very concerned. Similarly, there would be mayhem from the “Biggest Loser” trainers in response to something like this.

This is not to determine one is worse than the other, it is just to reveal the bigger picture. Skinny is according to an individual’s state of mind. Skinny is unique to the individual, like fingerprints. If you think about it, Kate Moss’s message could possibly have a positive influence on those battling obesity. Moss’s motto is relative to everyone in their own sense. Personally, her motto is relative because no matter how good the taste of something, nothing is worth carrying an additional 30% or more of weight. The ability to be physically unrestrained, free of heart and blood pressure disease, and diabetes is priceless.
