Hello gentle Americans.  My wig is spinning because of the media frenzy about my balls hanging on the White House Christmas Tree.  Everyone from the Drudge Report, to the Huffington Post to major religious right internet sites has commented on it.  It seems I am the most dangerous drag queen in America.  One right wing nut bag equated having a drag queen on the tree to a dog pissing on the bible; which made my heart proud.  I love dogs and my favorite past time is pissing on the bible.  The Old Testament only, God was so punishing and mean in that one. In fact I think there is a photo floating around town of me, in a drunken stupor, pissing on the bible.  When I find it I will promptly put it on my site before those nasty Right-Wingers get hold of it and use it for the forces of evil.

LOOK AT ALL THE DRAG QUEENS

Though the White House’s comments on this media storm have been odd.  I almost get the feeling that they are embarrassed by it all, as if they knew about this in advance they would have left my ball in the box.  I understand completely by being a bit taken aback about the ball with General Mao’s picture on it, after all he was responsible for killing over 50 million of his people.  I on the other hand am only responsible for entertaining people (depending on who you ask that is still up for debate) in glittery dresses and wigs.  And didn’t our fore fathers wear wigs after all?  Look at famous portrait of George Washington crossing the Delaware River-There he is standing proudly at the bow of the ship, with a rather elegant hat topping off a lovely grey wig.  In fact several of the men aboard that boat have lovely little wigs blowing in the cool Delaware breeze.  So, really people, didn’t our great nation start off with a bit of pomp and circumstance?  So why should any one be surprised that a drag queen is on the Christmas Tree.  Christmas is kind of draggy by nature-lots of lights, hanging balls, and plenty of booze. And for god sakes, George Bush’s wife Barbra was in the White House for four years, and isn’t she, I mean he, a cross dresser?  Has anyone really looked under Barbra’s skirt to find out the truth?  No. Because I am sure, if one were to glance at it with unprotected eyes, one would turn to a pillar of salt therefore leaving that mystery up for debate.

So today, on the birth of Jesus Christ, I must sit in deep reflection, wondering what Jesus would do or say to those mean Right-Wingers if he were in my shoes today.  I suppose he would say, “Turn the other cheek Hedda.” At which point I would bend over and say, “Which one do you want to kiss, the right one or the left?”

Stay fresh,
