- If you were hoping to buy or rent a bunch of abortions and charge them care of whatever new health care bill ends up passing, this will not be possible! [New York Times]
- China is very upset with the Dalai Lama for going to some Himalayan town that is not technically a part of China but is so close it’s probably at least entertaining the notion. [Washington Post]
- It’s probable that Nidal Malik Hasan acted alone at Ft. Hood. Oh plus President Barack Obama, but other than that, alone, yes. [Wall Street Journal]
- So guess now’s as good a time as any to take a look at mental health policy and practices in the military. [Los Angeles Times]
- Even though Tony Blair will never admit it, he still wants to be the president of the EU. [Times Online]
- Hurricane Ida is the first hurricane to hit America this year. It struck parts of Mississippi, Florida, and New Orleans. All three still exist. [AP]
Ida hasn’t hit yet. It’s coming, though.
I’m glad World Nut Daily blew the cover off of the Obama/Nidal connection. Now if they’d only expose who in the FAA is greenlighting these black helicopters that keep buzzing my house, I could finally get some sleep at night.
All three still exist.
Unfortunately.
Where is RightBloggerPat on all of this?
Daria:
That’s what she said.
I’m in New Orleans…
…figured that noise was just gunshots.

Alone and sad in his mom’s basement, confronting the awful truth that he is about to run out of Vaseline and Cheetos.
Abortion Foes May Provide Emergency Exception, For the Health of the Insurance Companies
http://satiricalpolitical.com/2009/11/08/abortion-foes-may-provide-emergency-exception-for-the-health-of-the-insurance-companies/
AKAM80TheWolf: Yep. Ida should go ahead & just put them out of their misery.
MLHencken: We may never know… http://twitter.com/rightbloggerpat
Oooh, there is more fodder for the conspiracy folks. Turns out Hasan attended the same mosque in northern Virginia as did some the 9/11 terrorists. Ladies and gentlemen, and I use those terms loosely, start bloggin’!
Texan Bulldoggette: Not while the Saints are winning. Wait until they start losing again. Which should be — oh, next week, perhaps.
Don’t worry, Lie-berman promised to get to the bottom of this.PUTZ!!!
Terry: “Same mosque in Northern Virginia” is equivalent to saying “same church in Rome.” Just saying.
From what I understand, Army’s approach to mental health oscillates between extreme neglect or the Patton method aka slapping the shit out of traumatized soldiers.
Not surprising considering that these are many of the same bureaucrats who let Walter Reed turn into a disgraceful shithole.
I fear good, ol’ fashioned “going postal” is losing its cachet.
Lieberman, Lieberman, Lieberman, Lieberman,
Lieberman, Lieberman, all day long,
Lieberman, Lieberman, Lieberman, Lieberman,
Lieberman, Lieberman, Lieberman song!
“When he shouted ‘Allahu Akbar,’ he gave a clear indication that his faith or Muslim view of the world had something to do with it,” said the congressman, a Republican. Mr. Carter added that he would wait until the official criminal investigation is concluded before rendering an official opinion.
Allahu akbar is Arabic for “God is great.” Arabic Christians say it all the time. Also.
Or maybe Carter is saying that God ISN’T great. I’ve heard that before, too.
snideinplainsight: The Adam Sandler school of lyric-writing, there.
x111e7thst: We’re not letting this guy up anytime soon, are we. Nope, doesn’t seem so.
Gumboz1953: OTOH, when George W. II said the US was on a “crusade” in Iraq, several times, that was A-OK, and any Muslims who took offense, well, they just hate the West ’cause we’re free to say we’re on a crusade against Muslims who hate us for our values and our freeom.
Plus, don’t lots of Christian soldiers pray before battle? Or is that just after touchdowns? I get confused.
Gumboz1953: I was in the same HS class with one of Jim Jones’ accomplices. And Rev. Wright’s mom was our vice principal. And I understand I am something like a 60th cousin to Michelle Obama.
Five states go further than the amendment to the health care overhaul. The five — Idaho, Kentucky, Missouri, North Dakota and Oklahoma — already bar private insurance plans from covering elective abortions.
I take it this what is our conservative friends mean when they talk about the advantages of self governing free markets?
Katydid: Jeez, you’d think those Bibles our guys are handing out to the locals in the war zone would have converted a few, huh?
finallyhappy: I got you beat. I served in the Air Force (mid-80s) with Lindsey Graham. That makes me the biggest douchebag registered on Wonkette.
We only address problems when they spring out and bit us on the TruckNutz.
Gumboz1953:
Yep, you and I know that, but….
Gumboz1953:
You should have given him a swirly or something.
Gumboz1953: ‘Cause you didn’t shoot at him when you had the chance, or what?
Tell the truth. Is he a total motherfucker, or does that just happen automatically when one gets elected to the Senate? Actually, since he’s starting to sound like a GOP moderate, I can’t remember if he really is a motherfucker or not, since the bar has been raised, or lowered, depending upon one’s view.
Gumboz1953: Well, Graham is an asshole but .Think of the indoctrination there must have been with the Rev’s mom as our vice principal(even though he must have been a school kid then too). She was a math teacher- the danger of advanced mathematical learning is well known- you can become a physicist and create the atomic bomb or make robots who take over the earth and enslave us
I thought Obama said he would stop hurricanes. Another broken campaign promise.
Fetus Jesus is punishing Cao’s district for his vote!
Katydid: I don’t know if he’s a motherfucker now, or just an intermittent motherfucker. But he wasn’t a motherfucker then. He was actually a pretty nice guy.
Terry: I don’t know what a swirly is, but it’s probably something I couldn’t give him without ending up in trouble myself.
I outranked him. He was a captain; I was a major. I could have made him “drop and give me 20.” It would have been interesting to see his interpretation of that order.
Misleading title, Juli. As long as you’ve recently been raped or fucked by a close male relative, you can have all of the publicly funded abortions you want. I’m not even sure they’ll make you produce your assailant’s DNA for proof first.
Where’s the part in the bill that shows how we turn in the oldsters?!? Yet another broken campaign promise.
Mr Blifil: I know, strictly speaking, it’s not an impediment to interstate commerce, but how can a gov’t block a private body from insuring an entirely legal event?
& before the Evangelicals start blathering, I have to ask — what would they do if the Christian Scientists weren’t so damn low-key & instead decided to lobby for outlawing all hospitals?
Nancy Pelosi should really get that two-dollar whore rollover move patented for the Congressional Dems.
Since we are not a Theocracy, and proud of our Separation of Church and State, which we learned when we were children was a Good Thing, we don’t let the Churchlies make our laws.
So why is that man in the Times article wearing a dress? I am guessing he is a transvestite?
Katydid: Was Henry V shouting “Cry ‘God for Harry, England, and St George’” before Agincourt an early example of a soldier shouting terrorist slogans before attacking other (albeit French) soldiers? Especially with St George being a Turkish Arab and everything.
No, because Henry V was also French, at least mostly.
Katydid: God has been known to follow football games religiously.
Gumboz1953: THANK YOU. I was writing a fairly long essay on that, but you summed it up right purtily.
