OMG

Guys, seriously.


That is all I can think about whenever I glance at the cover of the Times-Pic. Seriously.

Sorry for the poor quality, I couldn't find that Duplessis picture on the web so I had to throw it on the scanner.

A sign of things to come...

Way back on August 22 2007, our friendly blogger American Zombie called it:

Word has it that LA. Senator Derrick Shepard is the next to be summoned to the gallows....execution date is set for Monday.

It took more like 7.5 months, but Senator Shepard got popped with 41-counts of indictment this afternoon.

Could he have been the next Dollar Bill? We will never know.

just out of curiosity...

If you were running for public office, would you go out on a blind date?

The District 5 Senate race is starting to get a little more interesting as two more folks have thrown their hat into the ring. The Jalila Jefferson position will definitely be interesting seeing how all the stuff has been coming down on the Jefferson clan lately.

Interesting, however...

Gray and Dixon join two other Senate hopefuls who have been campaigning for weeks: state Rep. Jalila Jefferson-Bullock and former appeals court judge David Williams. All are Democrats except Williams, a Republican.

C'mon, they're all Dems at this stage of the game...

What would we do in the office without the internet?

Introduction

It all began with Political Drinking Night. Sometimes the there was more drinking than politiking, other times there were politiking than drinking (yeah right). On a Friday afternoon after working their tired but true jobs for "the man" A Little to the Right (hereinafter referred to as ALTR) and A Little to the Left (hereinafter referred to ALTL) decided it was time to blog. Yeah, we're a little behind on the times, but what easier way is there to achieve random internet fame? Especially when it comes to booze, politics, and sex. Yes, sex. So here we are, to entertain not only ourselves with our views on politics (especially in the great state of Louisiana) sex, and the elixir of life.
