- Now that we don’t have to worry about Iraq anymore, we can start worrying about Afghanistan instead, where a “major operation” was just launched. [CNN]
- Soon California won’t be able to pay its bills and it will start issuing IOUs scratched out on bits of scrap paper as “currency.” [AP]
- Several of Michele Bachmann’s fellow Republicans have urged her to fill out her census form completely, so that the administrators of ACORN-run internment camps can track her down without wasting taxpayer dollars on a private investigator. [Washington Post]
- What is the point of living, really, if you can’t have Vicodin? [ABC News]
- The auctioning of Iraqi oil-development rights that went so well the process attracted one whole bidder was indeed a success because it showed the Iraqis weren’t going to whore themselves out to foreign oil companies. And that stunning success is why they’re going to move up bidding on a bunch of undeveloped or partially developed fields from late this year to “within the next few months.” [Wall Street Journal]
- After days of caterwauling to the press about his forbidden love affair, crybaby blabbermouth Mark Sanford fell suddenly silent as people asked fewer questions about his girlfriend and more about when he was going to resign. [AP]
I thought that Rambo III already solved the Afghanistan problem.
But at least heroin prices have never been lower.
All the residents of Bachmann’s district should be encouraged not to reply to the Census. Then, that district will appear empty and it can be split and merged into adjacent districts, erasing her seat.
“What is the point of living, really, if you can’t have Vicodin, OxyContin, Viagra or Dominican boys?”

I think SC Representative Gilda Cobb-Hunter needs to be quoted more often — and I wish her success in her quest.
What about the Right’s “True Love Waits” program, Mark?
norbizness: I do have some issues with quality control. These may have to do with the fact that most US American Heroin is produced from Central American poppies by lazy shiftless Mexicans and Columbians.
I think Michele Bachmann doesn’t want to fill out the census form because it reminds her of all those tests he took during her collage days. One more D- is not going to change anything Michele.
Ahhh..Bachmann, shine on you crazy-eyed diamond…
Monsieur Grumpe:
No. Michelle Bachmann refuses to turn in her census form because the census is an effort by the Obama administration to strip Republicans of their guns before arresting them in the middle of the night and sending the adults to interment camps and the children to Hippie communes. Please pass the word around on this travesty. I want as many people in Red states as possible to refuse to hand in their Census forms.
Auctioning Iraqi oil rights. OK, now with the MISSION ACCOMPLISHED banner.
NO, NO, NO- I demand Mark keep talking until he has confessed about the male prostitutes and the meth.
Aw, I hope California is issuing fancy engraved certificates for their IOU’s instead of scribbled scraps of paper. Something classy, like a Schrute Buck.
All right, someone has to say it: the cat that has Sanford’s tongue is the only pussy he’s going to see for quite a while.
“Cat Finally Gets Mark Sanford’s Tongue”
Too bad Argentine pussy got it first though.
Michele’s breaking out the tin foil hat again. You go girl.
binarian:
Has anyone been to Bachmann’s district? Are most of the residents peeping out of their windows, aiming unregistered firearms at strangers just in case?
You know I didn’t think anywhere in Minn could be crazy enough to return Bachman to Congress every two years. According to Garrison Keillor it seems like everyone is pretty low key and mellow up there so what’s up with her?
My mom and dad in-laws are the two most low-key, mellow MN ex-pats evar — I think Bachmann gives the Boreds and stupids in her district a distraction from the long winters.
You know, I do take Vicodin for a very legit reason. I have an honest doctor and obey all the laws (i.e., I don’t doctor shop, I have to take drug tests, etc.). On a lighter note, I did say once to my doctor: “if I could take vicodin every day of my life, while perhaps shorter, it would be a great life.”
I have debated the merits of taking it - who wants to go through life on pills - I really don’t, and you do build up a tolerance, so you don’t really get that “high” but it is still very effective in combating pain.
I wonder how many of those voting to make vicodin illegel have chronic pain that is untreatable and uncurable. I go to a pain clinic that treats a lot of cancer patients - (thankfully and “knock on wood,” that is not my case) - how dare the government tell them what they can or cannot do for pain relief!
OK, sorry for my screed, but a lot of people are scared. I went yesterday, and there were people crying - they are at the end of their life and as far as I am concerned, they should be able to take whatever the hell they want too and that includes legalizing all drugs, especially for end-of-life care.
Thanks,
Am I the only one who wants to get Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann in a threeway?
May I please use this as an open thread to express this one thought:
Reading anything by always-wrong Bill Kristol (a.k.a. ASSFLAKE) is about as enjoyable as jello wrestling a warren of angry porcupines. Naked.
wrytoast:
Yes you are…
….uuuuurrrggghhhhhaaaaa….
…goddamit no… no you’re not.
Hawaiiexpat: so you’ve jello wrestled naked with a wareen of porcupines? Can you name the Republicans who were watching- for the record, please?
finallyhappy: Mark Foley, David Vitter, Larry Craig, Rush Limbaugh, Ted Haggard, Jeff Gannon, Glenn Beck and Ann Coulter (pre-op)
wrytoast: Straight Republican Mark Sanford probably does, if he hasn’t already “dallianced” with them in a way that doesn’t “cross the line.”
When I fill out my census form, I always add a few illegal aliens. That way I get my Obama monies, and can be processed in the emergency room in less than 12 hours.
Thanks for posting the article about how useless bureaucrats in the FDA are all in a tizzy that someone is combining 2 drugs into one pill, when you can you know buy two drugs in two pills like the experts think is a good idea. How do we live without these guardians our safety. I am so glad they get lush retirements in 20 years, but I have to work until I can’t and then die a homeless vagrant in a packing crate. They earned it, as did I. Ahh so why are all those drugs half the price every where else in the universe, does poverty caused by the FDA have negative health effects? Nahhh.
drewonline: I took the stuff once after surgery. It was the best 4 days of my life. Vicodinland is a wonderful place.
Why should anyone but a doctor decide what is the right treatment for someone? I am sick of weenie insurance nerds making those decisions.
pondscum: “Why should anyone but a doctor decide what is the right treatment for someone?”
Or, in Limbaugh’s case, 27 doctors, or however many it takes to get the right answer.
I think I speak to for all the residents of Illinois when I say Mark, please, please stay on in office, as long as you are there, our problems with our governors see so trivial…
norbizness: Just my luck. I get off the junk & the price takes a nosedive. Who needs vicodin when you cam fill a syringe so cheaply with heroin sulution?
So, if Michelle Bachmann doesn’t fill out her census form completely, does that mean she essentially disappears from American discourse? Because I could totally get behind that.
Haha! Sucks to be you.
You and drewonline should get together and compare junkie notes, knock heads, whatever, at great length, ad nauseum right here in comments until Jimmy is forced to ban you.
(Not really)
Hollingsworth’s statement in the AP article on California made me furious. Either he’s a liar, or he’s an idiot. I think he’s about to get a scathing letter from a very pissed off state employee.
Ackkk! Bachman was right! The camps are here. Why didn’t we listen?
