Sestak...scandal peaking! Bill Clinton intermediary in negotiations...

In a surreptious effort to "test the waters" - insiders on the hill confirmed today -  that former President Bill Clinton was recruited as an intermediary to determine if Represenative Joe Sestak might consider dropping his bid for the primary in lieu of a plum, unpaid, advisory position in the administration.

According to highly-placed sources  in the White House slick Willy was approached by Rahm Emmanuel (Chief of White House Staff) to sound out the politician last summer.

Mr. Sestak turned down the offer and continued on with his political campaign.

In the Democratic primary, Sestak later beat out his adversary Senator Alren Specter.

Don't Ask Don't tell...to be repealed! 78 percent of Americans say "no problem"...

In a  vote in the House Thursday evening, lawmakers gave a nod to an amendment that would repeal the - "Don't Ask  Don't Tell" - policy which has been tearing apart the Military.

In what is condsidered a party-line vote, 234 Democrats were in accord with the bid for a repeal, while 168 Republicans stood opposed (in addition to 26 Democrats who jumped ship to vote nay).

Behind closed doors, the Senate Armed Services Committee voted 16-12 to repeal the screwy policy which has been a bone of contention over the years.
 
The amendment requires a seal of approval from the full Senate before becoming Law.
 
The reaction on the Internet has been favorable in respect to the lifting of the ban.

"'Don't ask Don't tell" is a policy based on bigotry and ridiculous stereotypes," one CNN Blogger accused.

A CNN poll found that 78 percent of Americans have no problem with gays serving in the military.

Justin Bieber...walks into glass door - twice! Ouch...

Justin Bieber was in the throes of exiting a building when he walked smack-dab into a glass plate window.

Ouch!

In a second incident the outgoing Pop Idol started to facilitate a revolving door when - bang! - he hit his head on a glass panel.

Merely a case of Linday Lohanism?

Maybe the whirlwind tours and and exhausting stage performances are taking their toll.

Not to worry, Justin!

I suffered a similar accident a few years ago.

I was viewing an apartment in West Hollywood when the Manager gestured for me to check out the outdoor patio.

When I proceeded to step outside I ended up walking into the squeaky-clean glass door.

I was stunned (and shocked).

The manager thought it was an open door, too.

For starters, I suffered a concussion. 

Then, when I happened to glance in the bathroom mirror a short while later, two black eyes stared back at me.

Suddenly, I found myself embroiled in legal battle over damages.

The insurance carrier - Prudential - fought tooth-and-nail to avoid paying up.

The adjusters were positively evil!

It appeared that I was having a run of bad luck when the case was assigned to an incompetent boob by the name of Judge Shimmer (considered one of the worst Judges in Santa Monica Superior Court at that time).

The bench warmer didn't know his a** from a hole in the ground.

Needless to say, he was the first incompetent corrupt judge I crossed paths with in the Superior Court judicial system in Los Angeles.

Edmund Burke once opined:

"Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the Gods."

Justin Bieber...foul-mouthed kid! Will success spoil the DIVA?

Bieber with locks shorn!

According to a popular Australian Entertainment Show, sexy Pop Idol Justin Bieber is turning into a prima donna.

During a break on stage, allegedly a handler instructed Bieber to move to a different position  - and in the process - innocently touched the handsome chart-topper  ever-so-slightly,

Bieber allegedly got angry and snarled at the crew member not to do that ever again.

"Backstage his language was shocking. I don't think I've ever encountered such a foul-mouthed kid," a representative of the show hissed in an interview later in the day once the dust had settled.

On the heels of  the broadcast, Justin Bieber stated for the record that the allegations were definitely not true.

The "Diva Watch" is in full-swing - nonetheless -at the Tattler.

Ashton Kutcher...dethroned as King of Tweets! Audience goes wild on Ellen set...

The audience reaction when he stepped on stage - wild screams and applause that pierced the ears - that it caused Kutcher to quip:

"It would be great to have sex and have someone stand up and cheer like that," he joked.

"That does't happen now," Ellen quizzed.

"No, it doesn't," he almost mumbled.

Ellen chirped that she wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of folks from her audience would be willing to do that..

Kutcher sported a fluffy cut (Justin Bieber eat your heart out), exuded a boyish charm, and was oozing with sex appeal.

At a recent chi chi function, Kutcher wailed that he was put off by Sarah Palin.

For starters, he denounced her book as unprofound. arah Palin's.

 Allegedly, the former Ice Queen,  talked non-stop about the military and the "little people" which was a turn-off to Kutcher.

Although a fan of PRICE (who performed at the same high-profile event), he also expressed his frustration over the fact the Pop Idol rarely ever performed his hits - like Purple Rain - preferring to jam with the band for two (yawn) hours.

Ellen agreed with Demi's better-half.

"They don't like to sing the hits that we love them for," Ellen astutely noted.

Mr. Kutcher looked "sharp" in a tasteful tailored jacket, paired with dress slacks, thin black tie, and pristine white shirt with correctly knotted at the collar.

"So, you're King of the tweets," marvelled Ellen amid applause from the audience.

"I got dethroned," Ashton uttered up with a tinge of frustration in his voice.

Ellen probed a little further but came up empty-handed.

"I'd rather not talk about it."

So, they didn't.

President Barack Obama...reporter probes Barry "O" Bomber! Jump shot shakey...

With his feet planted firmly on the court at the White House, the President chatted with a reporter one-on-one seemingly without a care in the world.

The interviewer was keen on getting a glimpse of a Barack Obama that is rarely in plain view over the news airwaves.

When the reporter mentioned Barry "O" Bomber - Barack's nick-name in High School - it brought a smile to his face.

The President was bestowed with the awesome moniker because of his sizzling jump shot.

Barack Obama allegedly hung out with a posse of kids known as the "Rat-ballers" who were obsessed with basketball.

The President noted that when he enrolled in University he placed his focus on his studies - hence - his basketball skills fell by the wayside a tad.

"When I got back to the court, I'd lost my jump shot," he joked in so many words.

 in recent days, Mr. Obama has endeavored to stay on top of his "game" (time permitting).

"He just had something about him. He had this charismatic nature," noted of the rat-ballers after looking-back.

In spite of the fact he dresses elegantly, and walks the corridors of power, old friends joke that he's just Barry to them.

"Barry is skinnier, though. He looks good," another pal chirped in.

The faded photograph above reveals "Barry" in his former incarnation.

The yearbook entry captures a chubby Obama shoulder-to-shoulder with his basketball team mates.

Barrack attended Punahou - the largest private school in the country in Honolulu - which caters to the high-and-mighty (cultural elite) of Hawaii.

The tuition was beyond Barack Obama's reach; but fortunately, the President landed a sholarship which afforded him the opportunity to pursue a quality education.

Sarah Palin...outrage over neighbour's spying prompts fence building...

 

Tough broad fights back!

Sarah Palin is on the warpath!

A relative calm prevailed over the woodsy community - where she presides in Alaska - until an unexpected stranger moved in to the cottage next door.

When the identity of the new tenant was revealed, Ms. Palin was inclined to spring into attack mode.

As it turns out, the mysterious tenant was none other than author Joe McGinniss who is currently penning an unauthorized biography on the former VP hopeful, Sarah Palin,

"He's invading my privacy," charged Palin, after capturing Mr. McGinnis on film gazing in the direction of her home.

Sarah hinted at foul play on her facebook page while  friends, fans, and supporters lent a sympathetic ear.

Mr. McGinniss's publisher assured members of the press that his client would be respectful of Ms. Palin's privacy.

When asked, a handful of the locals labeled McGinniss's behavior "creepy",

In response to the "intrusion", Palin's husband opted to go his own way to resolve the problem.

Early this morning, neighbours were greeted with a fence along the edge of the property, which has essentially blocked McGinniss's ability to "peep" in the future.

One reporter, anxious to hear the author's side of things, strolled up and knocked on the writer's door.

Although McGinniss was inclined to come to the door, he threatened in no uncertain terms that if the employess of the TV station didn't get off the property, he'd sick the local police on them.

The book is titled - "The Year of Living Dangerously - " which I find ironic since it appears to be starting out that way.

Isn't there an ordinance that restricts the height of fences in residential areas in Alaska?
