Those North Koreans are real good marchers. They would provide neat entertainment at the next Superbowl.

Republicans are instinctively sympathetic to buggery, however outwardly respectable they appear.

I refuse to visualize Walnuts & Mother Sarah in the ‘clinch’, but I do think that Walnuts’ bones are pretty brittle by now. A hip or a knee or elbow is surely gonna pop if Mother Sarah starts bouncing on him. Actually that’s kind of a funny visual.

I hope North Korea hosts the next Olympics (after the UK or whoever). I bet the opening ceremonies would be cool. Maybe they could nuke a mountain in the background, or something, just for the mere spectacle of it.

I’m still trying to fathom the idea that someone is too anti-semitic for the John Birch Society. That’s like Jeffrey Dahmer getting kicked out of Borneo ’cause he freaked out the other cannibals.

[re=91625]SayItWithWookies[/re]:

I think the phrase “We expelled him from the John Birch Society for being too anti-Semitic” on a Birch Society press release is code for “We expelled him from the John Birch Society for not being anti-Semitic enough.”

BobLoblawLawBlog September 10, 2008 at 4:05 pm

Palin’s a far-right evangelical. Quoting an anti-Semitic FDR-hater will neither surprise nor disgust her base at all; it’ll probably consolidate them further.

Chris Matthews is a fucking dunce.

Cogito Ergo Bibo September 10, 2008 at 4:15 pm

The only other source for that Pegler easily available online is a 1990 book by Patrick Buchanan.

So, Pat did Caribou Barbie’s homework and wrote her speech? No wonder he’s so damned brain dead when it comes to her complete lack of experience or qualifications. That, or she’s still blowing him.

[re=91637]Serolf Divad[/re]: Apparently I’m waaaay behind on what’s code for what now. Hell, I remember when “family values” meant honesty, hard work and faithfulness. Now it means stealing OxyContin and having sex in church. Now that I think about it, maybe I’m a conservative.

Rachal Maddow is a lesbian? Really? It took a whopping 48 hours & two episodes before Fox Noise sneered about it? They’re slipping, where was the FIVE AND A HALF YEARS, ALAN outrage? “Rachel is A LADY WHO LIKES OTHER LADIES, ALAN!” That’s the FOX we come to know and hate.

Actually, I’ve always admired wolves’ hunting technique. One alone could never bring down a moose, but one nips at a leg, one nips at another leg, and when she lowers her head to confront the little bastards, one grabs her by the throat, slashing it and spilling blood all over the snow. (actually, I have no idea what I’m talking about, but you get the idea.)
We are like that, we commenters on sites and spreaders of idle rumors. We are wolves for hope. That lame fucking donkey was getting old, anyway.

All their viewers tune into Maddows new show for some hot girl on girl action, then become regular viewers because they get a taste of some real journalism for a change.
