- Barack Obama pulls down his trousers and pisses all over the Congressional Black Caucus. [The Hill]
- Maybe in the fall voters will pick Democrats because they think they’re better at running the economy, and also Democrats are not to blame for the current horrible mess, and also it is hard for Republicans to keep railing against an interventionist government when they’re constantly bailing out the latest Wall Street disaster.

- Hey, mileage-based auto insurance! That sounds suspiciously sensible (and awesome for deadbeat work-from-home bloggers). [Los Angeles Times]

DAILY BRIEFING
That darned Barack! After all the Establishment Democrats have done for him and this country, you’d think he’d bow down and say “Yes massah” and shit like that.
Freakin’ Dems. Has it occurred to any of these whiners that they are not as smart as they think they are and it is DAMN clear they are ineffective in getting change done in this town? How about ALL of you get behind Obama and then we can work from the Top down for once. But no, it’s all about you. Asshats…this is why we are where we are now. Get your heads out of your fouth points of contact and get behind Obama and the coat tails will be there.
Funny. I find many Hill Democrats “insufferable” as well.
I’d like to get bailed out. How do I get on this gravy train? Is it as simple as investing like a room full of retarded monkeys and changing my name so my initials are FM? I can do that.
Monsieur Grumpe:
as far as i know, all you need is a bondsman. it’s cheaper
if you have the 10% option.
I love the DCCC director’s quote: “Arrogance is sometimes mistaken for competence.” Dude, I think you mean the reverse: competence is sometimes mistaken for arrogance. Although in the case of the Obama team, I have no doubt the actual quote is more appropriate.
“Barack Obama pulls down his trousers and pisses all over the Congressional Black Caucus.”
Hopey’s been hangin’ out too much with R. Kelly? What’s with all the golden showers?
Of course, given half the chance, McCain would whizz all over the Golden Girls….
Horrors! The Obama campaign has not coordinated well with Hill Democrats until recently. But now it is. But we were already reporting this piece o’ dreck, so look! Discord!
So Juan described himself as a “Teddy Roosevelt Republican” rather than a “William McKinley Republican?”
OK, Barack gets my vote just for supporting John Barrow. Hey, DNC hippie retards, the only Dems who are going to win in South and Middle Georgia are guys like Jim Marshall and Barrow, who are basically Dixiecrats without the racism. Plus, Regina Thomas is an incoherent loon; her main function as a state senator was to give speeches that convulsed the press gallery in giggles.
If the Demrats on the Hill actually didn’t bend to W then I would see Barry shitting on the Hill Demrats as a bad thing. It seems to me that, the Dems will hang their own prenit but bend for the Repubs. Ah bipartisanship.
Re: Mileage based insurance. Sounds like they figured out that most people work within 25 miles of home. And as insurance statisticians are overly-fond of saying, “Most accidents happen within 25 miles of home”. Did you actually think they were working on an idea to help the customer? *laughing hysterically* The bastards found another way to stick it to us.
Are they insane!? Don’t answer that! Did it ever occur to them that his message is CHANGE? We need to treat them like used car salespeople. “Get the hell away from me, ya goddamn parasites!” The last thing this fine sailing ship needs is a hull covered with barnacles.
Servo: “Did it ever occur to them that his message is CHANGE?” I’ve noticed that, as with Barry’s recent positions on: electronic surveillance, handguns, the death penalty, faith-based initiatives and now Iraq. That’s Hope I can believe in.
The Hill Democrats gave Barry a crazy-ass war that he was able to run against. Ingrate.
Aren’t these the same Dems who thought Pelosi and Reid should be in charge of anything? Yeah, their credibility’s torched at this point. Well played, you secret Muslim bastard. Now back to dropping trou (sp?) across this great nation.
Machine Dems in Detroit say Obama can not get elected without their organization.
NAACP says Obama can not get elected without their candidates.
House and Senate leadership say Obama cannot get elected without their consent.
Democatic party pols say Obama cannot get elected without raising funds for their local, state and federal candidates.
Geez, are there any self-identifying Democrats who actually want Obama to get elected or is it just the normal people supporting him?
WIDTAP: And the best part is, they are all wrong. Barry is the MacGyver of the Party: he can get elected with just a BlackBerry.
I think his coattails are long and strong,” said Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md)
Quite an image.
