Jewish World Review March 3, 2005 / 22 Adar I, 5765 And now for the important news .... By Argus Hamilton

The Academy Awards had a ratings drop from last year's
telecast Sunday. The people have spoken. A petition was circulated
across the nation Monday asking Pixar to develop a computer-
generated Johnny Carson to host the Oscars from now on.
Republicans criticized Million Dollar Baby for implying that
life in a wheelchair isn't worth living. What are they thinking?
If they could have gotten rid of Franklin D. Roosevelt we wouldn't
have the Social Security mess we have today.
President Bush told the nation's governors conference Monday
he would reduce Medicaid payments to states. He's cutting their
money. The governors glared at him like a roomful of airline
pilots who had just been told that the bar is closed.
Howard Dean hired four people on Monday to beef up
Mississippi's Democratic party. Is this wise? For the same money
he could place an ad on Dale Earnhardt's front hood and reach the
same people without risking four claims for workmen's comp.
E! Entertainment will air nightly re-enactments of the
Michael Jackson trial performed by actors depicting the day's
testimony. It could get very obscene. The network can't believe
they didn't think of this during the impeachment hearings.
Bill Clinton, during a trip to the Orient Monday, told
reporters in Japan that Hillary Clinton would make an excellent
president. It's obvious why he wants her to run for the White
House. There's no feeling like sleeping on your own couch.
Las Vegas announced plans to stage a major celebration for
the centennial in May. They advertise you can sin in Las Vegas and
no one will hear about it. At the city limits there's a tabloid
reporter hanging upside down from the welcome sign.
