In her new show, Talking A Blue Streak, Kate Clinton riffs from the trenches of her U.S.O. Tour from the tiny island nation of New York City to her favorite blue and red states, including the permanent vegetative state of Florida. She encounters blue state folks with such a level of post-traumatic-stress they could use a pill the size of a hubcap. Meanwhile, red state folks celebrate the return of the original girlie-man to the White House — Mr. Karen Hughes — who’s all set to co-produce “Extreme Makeover: International Edition with Condi Rice” and a measly $86 billion.
On the Pope front, Clinton was shocked to find she wasn’t even mentioned in the will — given her role as Irreverend of a Queer Nation that has proven to be the quintessential wedgie issue. That’s right; queers are the butt thong between the cheek of the church and the cheek of the state. With Kate Clinton, you’ll laugh so hard, all of your cheeks will hurt.
