Wanna Bet Our Tax Dollars Will Pay For It Now?

This is a case in which I guess you could say the now convicted party, is gender neutral.

"The police in Ashford said Lewis' family indicated they believed Lewis was using the proceeds from her criminal activities to finance a sex-change operation," he said.

This person of interest apparently went on a cross country bank robbing spree to get the funds to pay for a sex change operation. Well now that Alabama has found her, er him, uh whatever guilty, how much you want to bet the taxpayers of Alabama will wind up footing the bill for the full operation? That is unless they can pawn the suspect off on Texas or Tennessee, who also have warrants for his/her arrest.

BTW that is not the suspect in the photo above, just thought it would be good chance to post a picture of Scarlett Johannsen without mentioning her email pen pal.

Obama Throws Scarlett Johansson Under the Bus

Dude's going to need a bigger bus pretty soon. Earlier this month we told you about Scarlett Johansson and her engagement to Barack Obama, as the airhead actress gushed about her special relationship and frequent e-mails with The Messiah. Of course, it was easy to predict this outcome.

How long until a scowling Michelle Obama gives him a fist bump of fury and tosses him under the bus?

Sure enough, we see this item today.

But speaking to reporters aboard his campaign plane, Obama said the actress doesn't have his personal email address. "She sent one email to Reggie, who forwarded it to me," Obama said, referring to his 26-year-old personal assistant, Reggie Love. "I write saying, 'thank you Scarlett for doing what you do,' and suddenly we have this email relationship"

Touchy. His angry wife must have really worked him over.

'I Am Engaged to Barack Obama'

Oooh, keep the bike helmet on, Baracky

Amazing, isn't it? The guy can't keep lunatics off his website, seemingly every good friend and spiritual mentor of his has been tossed under a very crowded bus, he can't get his facts straight on simple issues, but he somehow manages to find time to exchange intimate emails with a Hollywood airhead?

This is getting pretty pathetic. First, this Illinois yahoo Barack Obama, who beat Alan Keyes of all people for the Senate job, waltzes into that chamber and usurps the Democratic presidential nomination that was to be Hillary Clinton's by rights.

Then he raises all this money, nearly a quarter-billion or something.

And now? Now, he's got Scarlett Johansson whipped over him. Give us a break here. Like, where's the fairness in any of this?

The guy rides a bicycle around in public in one of those goofy-looking but really, really safe helmets that legislators who don't ride bikes have declared that everyone must wear. Next thing you know they'll say we can't talk on cellphones while driving.

And Obama bowls like a Martian. And golfs like he's weed-whacking. And Scarlett falls for him.

Unbelievable. Anyway, here's Scarlett talking over on our sister blog The Dish Rag, which she isn't:

"I am engaged to Barack Obama. My heart belongs to Barack." Doesn't that make you sick? She's doing a lot of campaigning for him and everything.

She's not the only one, apparently. We may have another Obama Girl to keep an eye out for.

Now This Is a Contest I Might Enter

Hey, they promise a special night, right? I'm sure we could have great, um, conversation.

Scarlett Johansson may only have eyes for Ryan Reynolds, but for one night only, the "Other Boleyn Girl" star is prepared to party with a different date.

The humanitarian hottie is taking her philanthropic passions a step further and has put herself up for auction to raise funds for Oxfam America — giving the average American the chance to accompany her to the highly anticipated June premiere of "He's Just Not That Into You." The book-based flick also stars Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Aniston, Justin Long and Ben Affleck.

But before the winner starts rubbing shoulders with Hollywood royalty, he or she will have to be treated to extensive services before a chauffeured car comes by with Johansson waiting inside. Sigh. (Well, would you want to be seen with Scarlett without a little "assistance"?)

No assistance necessary, thank you.

Start the bidding.

Celebrity Nitwit: I'm in Love With Obama

Isn't this cute, a Hollywood actress falls in love with Barry O.

How special.

NEW YORK - Scarlett Johansson returned from the Persian Gulf with a whole lot of soldiers' trinkets and a delusion of her own engagement — to Barack Obama.

"I am engaged ... to Barack Obama," Johansson joked in an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday. "My heart belongs to Barack, and that is who I am currently, finally, engaged to. Yes."

Huh?

Johansson, who showed her support for the Democratic presidential candidate at the Iowa caucus earlier this month, was really just deflecting a question about rumors she might be engaged (to actor-beau Ryan Reynolds).

The 23-year-old actress talked about the warm welcome she received while visiting troops stationed in the Persian Gulf last week. Johansson dropped by U.S. bases in Kuwait on Jan. 17 and Jan. 18 as part of a USO tour in which she met about 3,500 men and women in uniform.

"Everybody that I met there was so incredibly friendly and polite and genuine and generous," she said. "They were so, so sweet. I mean, I was just amazed."

Yes, I'm sure they were impressed by your, um, acting skills. Yeah, that's it.
