Tea Party Shite Show

Bruins goaltender Tim Thomas was a petulant, immature clown to refuse to meet Obama in the White House for the traditional meeting of the mutilmillionaire sports twits with the President.

He's also a stated fan of Glen Beck, who is to political discourse what the Cookie Monster is to predicting the share price of the snack food industry.

I thought it would be a good topic to ask whether Thomas, who I respect for his goal skills, was being a little dramatic for his boycott of the White House appearance and his ridiculous Facebook post on why he refused the honour.  No biggie.  Take some calls, have some fun, move on to car topics and all the idiotic stuff I do to entertain and get through the show.

Born unto the human race on February 16, 1942, "The Master Plaster from Ancaster" was the product of his sire, Man 'O War and his dam, Ain't She A Dickens.  The heavens took note of his acqusition of human form by bringing the Koreas bountiful harvests and touch-tone dialing.
