Sorry, but I don’t feel bad at all about any moran who stood outside in the cold all day just to get Sarah’s autograph and then got stiffed by her. You got what you deserved, and please tear up your voter registration card in protest.
On the other hand, maybe [...]
It was almost exactly 23 years ago that Ronaldus Magnus signed the Simpson-Mazzoli Act granting amnesty to millions of illegal aliens.
Consider this an open thread.

How many of you have read Harrison Bergeron?
It was tragic, all right, but George and Hazel couldn’t think about it very hard. Hazel had a perfectly average intelligence, which meant she couldn’t think about anything except in short bursts. And George, while his

The Ohio Attorney General, Richard Cordray, is swinging sweet, sweet lullabies:
Ohio’s attorney general sued Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and Fitch Ratings on Friday, asserting that they provided misleading credit ratings that led to hundreds of millions of losses for state funds.
The official, Richard Cordray, filed the lawsuit in [...]
John and I were just discussing Chuck Todd’s unbelievably idiotic tweet defending McCain’s latest primary-induced flip-flop. Todd’s an idiot, but not as dumb as Howie Kurtz—was John’s take on it. Mine is that neither Todd nor Kurtz is dumb in the usual sense. To stay in the good graces [...]
***Update*** Due to a miscommunication, I believed (my fault rather than his) that IndieTarheel took the pic that he sent. The top picture was in fact taken by Flickr user sweber4507. I apologize for any confusion.
To clarify my policy for this series, I prefer to run pictures sent in by [...]
This came across my feed thirty seconds ago:

Mr. Wrong About Everything, Bill Kristol, signs his political death certificate:
The new Rasmussen poll for the 2010 Arizona GOP Primary—John McCain 45%, J. D. Hayworth 43%—will generate a fair amount of buzz. But August is a long way away, and I assume that when McCain gets back to Arizona [...]
Mein GOTT twitter is frustrating:
Yeah, the problem here is Obama has not reached out enough.
Some of these guys never learn anything, ever. John McCain has never been a maverick. He has never been a major player in legislation- his only signature bill is McCain/Feingold, and that [...]
In January, Mike Rowland was so broke that he had to raid his retirement savings to move here from Boston.

I really don’t see what other options the military has here:
Sarah Palin kicked off her book tour in Michigan this week, and thousands gathered outside a Barnes & Noble chanting her name, giving the event the feel of a political pep rally. The Army wants Palin’s appearance at [...]

I forgot to post the recipe for the weekend:
1. Marinated Chicken w/flaming pineapples
2. Cuban Black Beans & Rice
3. Ensalada Cubana
4. Fried Plantain
Also, I need someone with mad photoshop skills for a “big” job involving a cat and a Bengals uniform. The innocents always suffer the most.

Why is this a big deal:
The 2,074-page Senate health care bill would take 34 hours to read cover to cover—and that’s just what Sen. Tom Coburn wants done on the Senate floor.
The Oklahoma Republican has threatened to invoke parliamentary rules to force the Senate clerk (or more likely, a [...]
