...String" Dance by Betty (available on the Bettie Page Something Weird Video and on the DVD Betty Page Uncensored), she gives herself a nonstop workout: shimmying, gracefully waving her arms, pausing briefly to adjust her fringed costume.

The transition team will also, undoubtedly, try to distance Obama from a man whom he helped elect...
...following day, Blagojevich attempted yet another contact with the Obama transition team in hopes of floating the 501(c)(4) idea. He said he wanted to tell an unidentified adviser to the President-elect that he wanted money to be raised for the nonprofit. The same day, he said in a phone conversation that mentioning the nonprofit to the President-elect's adviser would be an unspoken way of raising the question of Senate Candidate 1, among others. In the same conversation, Blagojevich suggested using an unidentified individual as an intermediary to the President-elect's adviser...
