Feet Tragically Obscured     

Good news from the watery Philippines, where tragic flooding ends on a happy note.  Renowned shoe fetishist and drag queen ideal Imelda Marcos’s shoe collection at the Marikina Shoe Museum was plucked from the rising waters by quick thinking museum staff.

Now the Marcos family can concentrate on the career of Strongman Scion Bong-Bong Marcos.

Behold A Pale House* 

From ArchiTakes via the Dallas News parkcitiesblog comes exciting Bush Library news: we [may] now have an inkling of what the already storied George W. Bush Presidential Consequences Corral will look like.                                                                   

Or maybe not, but in any event Bush architect Robert Stern brings out the saucy at ArchiTakes:

“Stern has just the right attributes to be his fellow Yale alum’s architect: conservativism’s DNA-inscribed commitment to tradition, and an inability to refuse any commission, no matter how unsavory…Characteristically, his new gothic buildings will substitute false antiquity for the real thing… Stern’s dismissal of what is authentic in favor of make-believe meshes nicely with his past service on the Disney Company’s board of directors…While demolition of an older building to make way for a larger new one is business as usual in New York, Stern’s replacement is distinguished by how much it looks like an escapee from one of the postmodern development ghettos just across the Hudson…Stern has proven quite capable of doing harm without tearing anything down.”

Tough Love 

Word that Michael Reagan has taken his search for daddy love to a new low.

America’s third rated right-wing talk radio network has dropped Ronald Reagan’s eldest son, according to blatherwatch, and he has landed at the American Family Association’s fourth rated one.     AFA’s larger claim to fame is their long time jefe maximo Donald Wildman, who periodically sallies forth from his cracker redoubt launching War On War On Christmas battle-cries such as:

Blatherwatch says the AFA “network” is an agglomeration of the sort of dinky-town stations “that depend on evangelists and vitamin salesmen who pay for their own shows.”

Little Reagan seems increasingly out of touch. His web-page flogs Reagan fantisist Paul Kangor’s book on Reagan crony and Saddam emissary  William “The Horse Theif”  Clark, and features a link to the defunct Senate site of George Allen, who lost his seat in 2006.

UNTIL NEXT TIME…
