The front page tells me that the US tally is Bode-acious. If I cared at all about the Olympics, this might excite me.

But most of the cover is devoted to the EXCLUSIVE follow-up to the NOAH-F story, WHAT MONEY? Louis Rainey (who the Post refers to twice as a “former Louisiana political honcho”) says that the victims in New Orleans never got any money from the charity (though they were sent some old clothes). The more I read about Rep. Gregory Meeks and state Senator Malcolm Smith, the angrier I get.

Where is the accountability in this country? Why is this sort of thing allowed to go on, with little or no consequences? Why does Charlie Rangel still have a job? Where has the oversight been on Seabrook? Espada? Arroyo?

I’m a Democrat, but I don’t vote blindly. And at this rate, I may never vote again.

There’s an E train that has video surveillance equipment in four of its cars.

So, if you want to deface a train with graffiti or stab someone or urinate, avoid the E train with the giant posters that say “Notice: This train may be equipped with a video recording device.”

That’s some good police work, Lou.

Let me get this straight: Toyota knew their cars had problems, but didn’t issue a recall because it cost less to just let people keep dying? This reminds me of that Gene Hackman movie where he files a class action lawsuit against a car company for knowingly keeping unsafe cars on the road.

I think it was called Gene Hackman’s Character Sues A Car Comapany For Knowingly Keeping Unsafe Cars on the Road.

Cindy Adams complains that “reporters are still asking what do we think of that pig Tiger.”

Almost 20% of Saturday’s paper was devoted to Mr. Woods.

Box.

I just watched Michelle Obama’s interview with Mike Huckabee.

She said “you know” 642 times (my conservative guesstimate).

“President Obama wants to give federal authorities the power to limit rate hikes by health-insurance companies.”

And I want him to.

(to borrow liberally from Oscar Wilde, the only thing more expensive than not having health insurance is having health insurance)

Mandrea!

Folly and the Ivy for city’s prep parents starts out berating people (this time parents of children who want to get them into NYC’s ritziest pre-schools) in the usual Mandrea style (“It’s stupid season in the city’s toniest schools.”), but then it loses its edge. Why? Because Mandrea considers herself “one of these parents.”

“I know it’s probably unnecessary to go into permanent hock to get my kid educated. Yet I am not immune to the ‘what ifs.’ What if my child will be a happier/smarter/more successful adult after going to private school? What if I can’t take the chance of being wrong? What if I am truly insane? I am not immune to the immense pressure to give my kid the best possible start in life. This is New York. The best will cost you.”

So, since Mandrea is among them, these parents aren’t that stupid after all! Happy ending!

Tiger Woods (He’s a sorry sight) and Eliot Spitzer (Eliot advising gov is a lust cause) don’t fare as well. The former complains that he didn’t apologize to “the bimbos that got him into trouble” and therefore, “he still doesn’t get it. He never will.” I love how she calls them bimbos and then reprimands Woods for not apologizing to them (but they’d be too stupid to understand him even if he did, right, Mandrea?). But Mr. Spitzer gets the worst of it.

“Stick to subjects you know, Eliot: Babes, black knee socks and getting away with it.

Former Luv Gov Spitzer, who avoided jail after being outed as the state’s most notorious john, is giving advice and counsel aimed at helping Gov. Paterson get re-elected. He’s teaching Paterson about the deficit. The budget deficit, not the deficit of character, a subject about which Spitzer knows a great deal. That’s advice our hapless governor would be better off refusing.”

So, I can ask Ashley Dupre for advice, but asking one of NYC’s most decorated politicians for advice is a bad idea? Oh, Mandrea. Stairs.

The Fat Reverend Al Sharpton’s media strategist, Rachel Noerdlinger, 39, got into a “pushing and shoving” match with Myasia Layne, 20, at Noerdlinger’s boyfriend’s apartment in the Bronx. Noerdlinger faces up to a year if convicted of the assault charges she faces.

That’s some good media strategizing, Lou.

Somebody else drove five miles in the wrong direction on the Taconic Parkway.

“Wrong Way? What an odd name for a parkway!”

Marc K. Siegel offers the poorly-worded Bill ♥ American Health Care, which oddly explains that Bill Clinton got a cardiac stent which he couldn’t have gotten if he was Canadian. But what the good (bad?) doctor fails to mention is that Clinton also couldn’t have gotten it without his former-POTUS health care plan.

Why do both sides have to make such spurious arguments? There are plenty of reasons to not like the health-care bill(s). And plenty of reasons to not not like them. Do you really have to create stupid arguments like this, Fox News shill?

Jed Hate Marc K. Siegel.

Steven Wolosker of Manhattan, John W. Fox of Galloway, New Jersey, Seymour Kleiman of Baltimore, Carl DiMedio of the Bronx, and Bob Tornese of Yonkers:

You are all stupid. Truly and profoundly stupid. Thanks for taking the time to write in about how “authentic” Sarah Palin is. And how she’s going to be POTUS in 2012. And how you’re all mindbogglingly stupid.

The Search For Six Wins continues this Tuesday night when the now 5-51 Nets face the 32-25 Trailblazers.

Go, Portland!

Fun fact(s): At the end of the 1st quarter, the Nets were up 36-20. At the half, they led 58-47. They ultimately lost 104-94.

P.U.

Why is House still in repeats? What gives, stupid Fox?

Sigh.

It’s Monday.

Try to curb your enthusiasm.
