After numerous disasters in the lab, a geneticist, Victor Liberalstein, succeeds in cloning a seemingly ideal liberal candidate. The candidate, whom Victor vainly names Frank N. Liberalstein, is brilliant, articulate, and movie star handsome. But Victor and his midget clone assistant, Albore, know Liberalstein has a serious defect, one that in a nanosecond could cause him to mutate into a liberal monster. Liberalstein's dangerous flaw, however, is also what makes him so attractive as a candidate-he's engorged with the genes of the world's most notorious political and celebrity liberals. People like Bill and Hillary Wimpton, Michael S'Moore, George Looney, the Rev. Al Sharlatan, and Jane Fondue. Victor's boss and benefactor is the volatile Dr. Howard Steam, former Vermont Governor and proctologist, now Chair of the Covert Democratic National Committee. Despite Victor's warnings about Liberalstein's volatility, Steam orders him to prepare Liberalstein to run for President in 2008. Will Victor develop drugs or make genetic alterations in time to stop Liberalstein's wild tendencies? Will Victor win the heart of sexy California Senator Polly Poxer? Will President Liberalstein actually cede Miami to Al Gouda terrorists? Liberals and conservatives alike will enjoy C. D. Jewell's Liberalstein, a wild and wacky political satire.

The kitchen has always been the center of the home. The Goddess Vesta was the goddess of the hearth. While we don't cook on hearths today, we do have kitchens where we practice our spiritual concepts, since the food that we cook, and the herbs and aromatics we use to change the consciusness are prepared here--whether we use a stove or a fireplace. This is a book about how to permeate your home with your work, and will appeal to people interested in wicca, shamanism, neo-paganism, or those who practice any religion that deals with developing inner strength, love, and healing. Janet Thompson discusses medicinal and magical herbs, spells, incense, tokens, amulets, working with color, aromatherapy, crystals, purification, baths, ritual, moon phases, the pathwork to the crone, the witches wheel (the festivals), and recipes. She provides practical insights for people who are just starting to live the pagan way!
