Reason No. 653 to love Martha Stewart
The Martha Stewart Show has recently begun airing in its entirety on MarthaStewart.com. This is both good and bad for a Martha junkie like me. Like right now, I should be doing homework, or reading or sleeping or something, but instead I'm watching Tuesday's episode, which featured special guest Ted Turner.

I dig Ted's politics. So I was delighted when, in the third segment -- where Martha is showing Ted how to make an iceberg lettuce salad with buttermilk blue cheese dressing and cherry tomatoes -- he talked about staying friends with his ex-wife, Jane Fonda. He said his philosophy is that "you catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar." Then: "Our administration doesn't understand that. They think the best thing to do is go around dropping bombs on everybody ...." Yeah!

And Martha, who typically steers clear of politics, said, "I totally agree with you ... I think I agree with Ted about almost everything."

Right on, Martha!

OK, I admit I don't get that, but look at all the totally cool stuff he has come out in support of -- like replacing Georgia's racist flag. Not to mention peace, social justice, the environmnent, zero population growth, women's rights, the United Nations.

You know what else he said on Martha? He said he thinks men should be banned from public office for 100 years, to give women a chance to fix all the problems created over the last couple of thousand years.

How freakin' cool is that?!

I'm hoping she gets Eminem on there like the gossip is saying. He can teach her how to spray paint things and she can teach him decoupage!
LOL
