Shocking News for Huckabee

AP
IOWA

More shocking news came yesterday for the Huckabee campaign. Dude, the Bird Dog has formally announced his resignation as Huckabee's hunting partner (who did all the real work anyway). Most upsetting to Mr. Huckabee was that Dude joined The Pooses for Peace an organization which endorses peace, no war and presidential candidate Cheysuli .

In his statement to the press, Dude the Bird Dog said " I am so happy to finally be out of that horrid camouflage gear and those nasty chains. I have admired the work The Pooses for Peace has been doing and proud to be a part of it. After all, isn't that what Jesus would do? Oh... do you think they will give me my own tiara? I do hope that Zevo keeps her promise and invites Liza Minneli to the New Years Eve Bash."

There has been no comment by the Huckabee campaign.

BREAKING NEWS FROM IOWA

Presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee is the latest victim of a Bite & Run attack.

The former Arkansas governor, surprised the rest of GOP field with his front-runner status here, was the first candidate to hold an event the day after Christmas. Surrounded by about a dozen reporters, as he went shooting, with Dude, his 3-year-old bird dog, and two friends, at his side.

In the first half hour, Huckabee, and friends shot three birds. Their last shot flew over the heads of reporters.

Moments later Huckabee and friends were attacked by several cats wearing tiaras, black leather and one holding a light saber. All three men are in stable condition at an undisclosed hospital. Dude the bird dog was seen leaving with the cats.

Unconfirmed sources report this is the work of the infamous Pooses for Peace Bite and Run Brigade.

Spokes-poose Zevo Calamari issued a statement following the accusation. " It was imperative to bring attention to the American people that voting for Huckabee is like putting Elmer Fudd in the White House. Could some one please bring me a shot of tequila, i have the most putrid taste in my mouth"

My pet human is gone for a few more days. I decided to stay here in San Diego instead of visiting Zevo in Salem for Christmas...it is way too cold there. Of course she is begging me to come to the New Years Eve party at the Casino Calamari. I suppose i should since i am part owner.

I will have to talk Miss Lucy Fur into coming with me. She has a knack for stealing borrowing those poose sized miniature liquor samples they use on the plane. Poor Lucy is back on her meds. Her pet humans are getting.... a German Shepherd puppy soon. The nerve of them. (Of course Zevo does not know this but i heard a rumor her pet humans are also thinking about getting one.) Hope this is not an epidemic. My pet human knows better than to even think about such a thing.

Hmmm..........I wonder if Donatella will loan me a few outfits for the trip? I read that wearing Versace on New Years Eve brings good fortune for the new year.

Time to nap in the SoCal sun.........

Feinstein Loses Telecom Earrings


Senator Diane Feinstein has called for an investigation on the whereabouts of the diamond hooped earrings she wore during Senator Dodd's filibuster on Monday. Unconfirmed sources report that the earring were a gift from a Telecom corporation.

The Senator is also demanding that The Pooses for Peace replace the plus size Leggs Control-top pantyhose that she also wore that day.

Pooses for Peace Spookes-poose issued a statement, "What earrings? What pantyhose?"

In other related DC news:

A brief fire broke out Wednesday morning inside the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, which is adjacent to the White House, but no one was injured and the fire was contained.

Firefighters were forced to break windows in the historic building. It appeared that several offices were gutted on the second floor near the ceremonial office of the vice president, but the fire did not appear to have spread to other floors.
Vice President Dick Cheney was not in the building at the time of the fire.

Firefighters found tequila bottles and cuban cigars in the room the fire started. No suspects have been named.

VICTORY...for now


Chris Dodd thanks the Pooses for Peace
Bite & Run Brigade

Sen. Dodd’s courageous FISA filibuster stand-off yesterday was a victory. Harry Reid pulled the Telecom immunity off the table.... for now.

Unconfirmed sources over heard that Harry Reid was terrified of the number of cats running through the Senate chambers during the filibuster nipping at ankles, knees and fingers. Diane Feinstien left the chambers with several runs and holes in her stockings.

Spokes-poose Zevo Calamari released a statement after the filibuster, "We intend to be persistent in protecting the basic civil rights of the citizens of the United States. Could someone please get me a shot of tequila to get this awful taste out of my mouth? Diane Feinstien was wearing cheap perfume..... bluuuuuuaaaakk...."

In his closing speech Dodd vowed to filibuster again in January if telecom amnesty is still part of the FISA legislation. He also promised to make the Pooses for Peace Bite and Run Brigade a part of the next filibuster.

We woudl like to thank all the pooses who volunteered for Bite and Run duty. For all the pet humans who called their Senators about this matter we thank you. We will keep you posted on this matter.

Viva la revolucion'

Emergency Session of Poose Congress Called

An emergency session of Poose Congress was called today in order to aid Senator Chris Dodd on his filibuster of the FISA/telecom immunity act, after Harry Reid turned to the dark side to allow a debate to grant telecom companies immunity for illegally spying on US citizens. The cats will help field questions to Senator Dodd and turn pages for him as he reads the constitution.

The Pooses for Peace will also attend the session. These cats will aid Senator Dodd with Bite and Run patrols to insure that he succeeds.

The Pooses for Peace have already issued a warning to Harry Reid, "No immunity for those telecom companies that illegally spied on us...... or else!" Senator Reid has not commented on this threat.

If your pet humans are concerned about the illegal spying on US citizens and do not want the telecom companies to get away with it... have them call their senators to support Chris Dodd. Click on www.thankyoudodd.com for more info.

Unconfirmed sources report that Jimmy Buffett is snowed in at the Casino Calamari in Salem , MA due to a Nor-easter that hit New England late Saturday Night.

Salem Police have been called in due to the loud singing and noise coming from the Casino. Cats wearing coconut bras, grass skirts and leis invited the police to join the party. Mayor Kimberly Driscoll denies all reports of Salem Police drinking margaritas and sporting grass skirts. At this time the music and noise continues. Police cars are still parked outside the Casino.

Screamin boat drinks, something to keep em all warm

This mornin, I shot six holes in my freezer
I think I got cabin fever
Somebody sound the alarm

Id like to go where the pace of lifes slow
Could you beam me somewhere mr. scott?
Any ol place here on earth or in space
You pick the century and Ill pick the spot

Oh I know, (I know)
I should be leaving this climate
I got a verse but cant rhyme it
I gotta go where its warm

Boat drinks
Waitress I need two more boat drinks
Then Im headin south fore my dream shrinks

I gotta go where its warm (I gotta go where its warm)
I gotta go where its warm (I gotta go where its warm)

I gotta go where there aint any snow
Where there aint any blow

I gotta go where its warm

BITE & RUN PATROL STRIKES OLSEN TWINS

Associated Press
New York, New York

Today hordes of cats dressed in black leather, some wearing tiaras, and one in a Jedi robe with light saber descended upon the Olsen twins while they were walking down Fifth Avenue wearing fur, drinking Red Bulls and smoking. The shrills of skinny girls shrieking filled Manhattan. Although there was not much to bite, the stick insects twins were rushed to a nearby hospital and are said to be in stable condition. One was seen munching on tic tacs for dinner.

Spokes poose of The Bite & Run Brigade, Zevo Calamari has sent out a warning to all celebrities who wear fur that they may be next.

In another related story about the Olsen Twins:

PETA has created a new campaign, singling out "Trollsen Twins" Hairy-Kate and Trashley as Animal Kingdom Enemies Number One for wearing pelts and including 'em in their collections Elizabeth and James and the Row.

"No one would argue that Mary-Kate and Ashley could use some meat on their bones, but the last thing they need is hair on their backs," PETA's Assistant Director of Youth Campaigns Dan Shannon said in a statement released today.

Ok.... so we are being petition pests this week. Not only do the Pooses for Peace care about Peace..but we also care about our friends the Polar Bears. Please help them by having your pet humans sign the card that is being sent to the White House. We need so many more signatures to make a difference.

Help give polar bears the gift of a future on our planet by signing this Holiday SOS Card to President Bush in support of their protection under the Endangered Species Act.

Please add your name to the card right now -- www.nrdconline.org
because the polar bear can't wait. Within the next 30 days, the Bush Administration will either throw polar bears a lifeline -- or condemn them to extinction.

Without urgently needed protection, all of Alaska's polar bears could be extinct in less than 50 years -- along with two-thirds of the world's entire polar bear population.

But there is still hope if the Bush Administration takes action now.

That's why we are asking you -- and everyone who cares about polar bears -- to help us add 100,000 signatures to this Polar Bear Holiday SOS Card. When you do, you'll be sending President Bush a message loud and clear during this holiday season: Save Polar Bears Now!

All we are saying is GIVE POLARS BEARS A CHANCE!

URGENT

Yesterday was the anniversary of the death of John Lennon. In memory of his words "GIVE PEACE A CHANCE" we have posted this urgent message.

As you have probably figured out by now we are a progressive cat blog dedicated to promoting peace. We are urging all of you to ask your pet humans to read this important information and email their Senators concerning it. Together we can make a difference.

FROM THE PDA:

As most members of the Senate and the House are preparing to celebrate the birth of the Prince of Peace with their loved ones, they are about to vote to fund more death and destruction.

In a complete capitulation to Bush and the Republican war machine, Congress is expected to vote on Monday, December 10, to approve continued funding for the occupation of Iraq with NO STRINGS ATTACHED!

We're fed up.

Though time is short, peace activists are mobilizing to make our voice heard yet again. Choose which works best for you and your district from the following tactics and please, act quickly:
Send an email to your senators and representative that says “Peace is Possible, if you vote NO.
CLICK HERE!

• Flood both your senators and representatives with phone calls through the Capitol Hill switchboard (202-224-3121) with this message: “Vote NO to any funding for the occupation of Iraq that does not require the rapid withdrawal of all U.S. troops and contractors.”


Perhaps it will take the ROAR of Pooses for Peace for Congress to wake up!
All we are saying... is give peace a chance!

Bill O'Reilly Bit!


O’Reilly: Progressive blog readers = ‘devil worshippers.’

On Fox News yesterday, Bill O’Reilly let loose on “far-left websites” like DailyKos, stating, “If you read these far-left websites, you’re a devil worshipper. You are.” O’Reilly’s ombudsman responded, “As a journalist, you know better than that.” O’Reilly shot back: “Satan is running the DailyKos. Yes, he is! and Satan is also behind the blog The Adventures of Zevo Calamari and Boo. Those cats certainly are devil worshipping liberal heathens. "

After Bill O announced his lists of devil worshipping blogs, he claims that a herd of cats wearing black leather, rhinestoned devil horns and carrying pitchforks attacked him. Unconfirmed sources report that Mr O'Reilly is in stable condition at an undisclosed hospital.

There is no word on who the suspects are yet. Cameras at Fox were turned off right before the attack.
FOX NEWS has reported it is the work of the Pooses for Peace Bite and Run Brigade. Authorities are still investigating the Bite & Run attack on Rudy Giuliani earlier in the week.

Back in San Diego

It is good to be back in San Diego. Salem was getting much too cold for me. I do not know how Zevo and Nubi tolerate it.

There were so many parties these past few weeks. I look a little ragged. So i am taking a few days off to catch up on my reading and beauty rest. Miss Lucy Fur and i may go to the Golden Door Spa later this week for a spa day. The holidays are just around the corner and we want to look extra beautiful for all those parties.

Oh.... my organic catnip tea is here.
Ciao ciao,

Back to Earth


Whew! We are so hung over........What a great party. Thanks to all who attended. You all looked fabulous and who knew that all of you could dance so well to Ewok music?

Zevo wore her Princess Leia slave girl outfit. Boo wore a versace space suit and looked stunning even though she left her Jimmy Choos back on Earth. We were happy that Miss Lucy Fur is back on her meds and was the hit of the party. Bubba is such a lady's man.... what a flirt. Tao and Sarge were kind enough to bring cases of Natty Boh in case we ran out of Coronas.

Thank you for all the gifts and birthday wishes. We need to nap and recover from the space travel and the tequila. Tomorrow is our pet human's birthday and we are planning a surprise party for her at the Casino Calamari. Steve Martin will be performing. You are all invited. This time we will be serving wine and shots of Strega.

Oh... for those of you who attended her party last year please note that we hid her banjo so she will not annoy us play it.

Could someone turn out the lights and bring us some ginger ale and asprin?
