Suggestions?
reanimation not an option
Apparently Hillary Bobble-heads are selling half off at National Airport—a leading indicator that It’s Over.
Perhaps she could reinvigorate her campaign by adopting some of the Pittsburgh Penguins’ Mike Lang’s goal phrases?

ToDaZeD Culchah WTF?!
TMI
I come from a mining town.
...It’s an interesting man who makes his way to the middle of nowhere seeking his life and fortune. That’s what my grandfather, John Reid, did, when he was drawn to Searchlight from California just after the turn of the century.
...By the turn of the century Searchlight was booming. But reversals come quick. Within a decade, the town was in a serious decline.
...But by the time I came along - December 2, 1939 - the leading industry in my hometown of Searchlight, Nevada, was no longer mining, it was prostitution.
As a boy, I learned to swim at a whorehouse. Nobody in town had ever seen such a fancy inground tiled pool in their lives as the pool at the El Rey. Or any pool at all, for that matter.
...We had a little tree in our yard for a while. It died.

Stop The Presses!!!
Sense written at HuffPopo
A couple of tasty treats to whet your appetite:
Controversial or not, one surely would expect politicians and journalists in every free society to strenuously defend Wilders’ right to make such a film. But then one would be living on another planet, a planet where people do not happily repudiate their most basic freedoms in the name of “religious sensitivity."
...The point is not (and will never be) that some free person spoke, or wrote, or illustrated in such a manner as to inflame the Muslim community. The point is that only the Muslim community is combustible in this way.
...Wherever “moderate Islam” does announce itself, one often discovers frank Islamism lurking just a euphemism or two beneath the surface. The subterfuge is rendered all but invisible to the general public by political correctness, wishful thinking, and “white guilt.”
...And if anyone in this debate can be credibly accused of racism, it is the western apologists and “multiculturalists” who deem Arabs and Muslims too immature to shoulder the responsibilities of civil discourse. As Ayaan Hirsi Ali has pointed out, there is a calamitous form of “affirmative action” at work, especially in western Europe, where Muslim immigrants are systematically exempted from western standards of moral order in the name of paying “respect” to the glaring pathologies in their culture.
Bravo!

who?
Sen. George McGovern… is urging her to drop out of the Democratic presidential race.

Sen. Byron Dorgin [D-SD]
It seems as though the Republicans have decided that they want the Democrats to have the White House. Although it seems that the Democrats aren’t quite sure they want it...
It's not just Weather anymore...
do not ask which way it’s blowing!
[TWC anchor Bob Stokes, 50, unrelentingly harrassed co-anchor Hillary Andrews, 38, with charming come-ons like:] “Will you lick my swizzle stick?"
...[He] made crude sexual remarks to her, leered at her chest, and followed her into the women’s dressing room. He also allegedly questioned her “over and over again, non-stop” about her sex life, and once noted, “It tortures me when you wear those heels and skirt."
Not as creepy as Heidi Cullens statement that anyone who disagrees with her on Global Worms oughta have their credentials yanked, sorry but creepy nonetheless.
Here’s a refresher from the founder of The Weather Channel John Coleman:
The science behind your global warming scare is bad and no anthropogenic global warming is happening. Dissenting scientists have now produced convincing evidence that the cornerstone of your scientific argument, increased atmospheric carbon dioxide forcing a rapid, irreversible rise in temperature, is invalid. All of the various “signs of global warming” you have so widely publicized have been proven wrong. They are normal variations in climate that result mostly from the cycles of the Sun. As the Sun cycle has changed in the last three or four years, they have reversed themselves.
... Stop screaming, “The sky is falling.” It is not.
Meanwhile...
on the non-elitist *splork* front
Combating Clinton’s portrayal of him as elitist and out of touch, Obama appeared more often in front of small [white] groups than the giant rallies of yore and in settings designed to highlight his regular-guyness. He and his wife, Michelle, ate Subway sandwiches [oooooo] with a working family in Beech Grove, Ind.; the candidate took deep drinks from a can of Budweiser [he *will* do anything!] at a VFW hall; shot a couple of basketball games of P-I-G [raaaacist! fatwa on way.] with neighborhood kids; and took his young daughters roller skating.
..erm, skates?

Sense?!? We don’t need no stinkin’ elitist sense!!
Not to imply that I understand the complexities of the international oil [ol] market, but I’m seriously wondering if we’ll be seeing it go to $200/barrel this year. If the price is being driven by OPEC it’s clearly an economic attack on the US. [see 6 Step Plan]
...and Hillary!? wants to give us a $20 break.
“Well, you know, for a lot of people $20 is something, right?"
Yeah—it means that you’re willing to spend $50 of our money to try to make us think we’re getting a $20 “break.”
She also shows us how well she takes expert council.
"I’m not going to put my lot in with economists,” Clinton responded, claiming that “elite opinion is always on the side of doing things that really disadvantages the vast majority of Americans.”
[emph mine - e~C]
Beyond the fact that it’s Not. Gonna. Happen., Congress being somewhat smarter more paid off that The Smartest Woman In The World, at least three states, CA, OK and NV, have laws that state whatever the Feds give up in gas tax will immediately be re-imposed in state gas taxes.
Was it just 10 years ago that BillyJ vetoed drilling in ANWAR because “it would take at least 10 years to see any benefit?”

deep.
A U.S. military spokesman in Iraq, Maj. Matthew Morgan, declined to describe the writings as a formal diary, but said the former Iraqi president produced thousands of pages of writing while in custody.
...When Saddam found out his U.S. military guards were also using his laundry line to dry clothes, he wrote that he demanded they stop, according to the excerpts.
“I explained to them that they are young and they could have young people’s diseases,” Saddam wrote. “My main concern was to not catch a venereal disease, an HIV disease, in this place."
Ahh, the things that worry one…
Saddam also wrote how hard it was to have to ask for things, such as when he once requested a flower: “It was a serious sacrifice from me to ask for the first time in my life.” ...
“I was speaking it using my hands and signs if I could not find the exact word,” he wrote. “But our language (Arabic) is more beautiful and deeper."
Ya mean “right-brained, creative” and non-rational?
"The spread of the Persians… is more dangerous for Iraq than the Zionist entity, now and in the future,” he wrote. “The Persians are similarly dangerous to the Gulf."
Gotta point, there, SaddyCakes.

Lets have a little conversation between Obama’s website, where he lets newspaper articles do the talking for him [I quote only his headlines], and an article in the NYT.
Obama:
REALITY: OBAMA WAS EIGHT YEARS OLD WHEN THE WEATHERMEN WERE ACTIVE
He turned eight on August 4, 1969. The Days of Rage, in which William Ayers participated, occurred in October 1969.
NYT:
Published: September 11, 2001
Obama:
REALITY: AYERS COMMENTS WERE PUBLISHED ON SEPTEMBER 11; THE INTERVIEW OCCURRED PRIOR TO PUBLICATION
NYT:
"I don’t regret setting bombs,” Bill Ayers said. “I feel we didn’t do enough.”
...He still has tattooed on his neck the rainbow-and-lightning Weathermen logo that appeared on letters taking responsibility for bombings.
Obama:
AYERS IS A TENURED PROFESSOR AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT CHICAGO AND WAS A “RESPECTED ADVISOR” TO MAYOR DALEY ON SCHOOL REFORM
NYT:
With him in the Weather Underground was Bernardine Dohrn, who was put on the F.B.I.’s 10 Most Wanted List. J. Edgar Hoover called her “the most dangerous woman in America” and “la Pasionara of the Lunatic Left.” Mr. Ayers and Ms. Dohrn later married.
Obama:
CHARGES AGAINST AYERS WERE DROPPED AND HE SERVED NO TIME
NYT:
So, would Mr. Ayers do it all again, he is asked? “I don’t want to discount the possibility,” he said.
Obama:
...
NYT:
Even today, he finds ‘’a certain eloquence to bombs, a poetry and a pattern from a safe distance,’’ he writes.
...In 1969, after the Manson family murders in Beverly Hills, Ms. Dohrn told an S.D.S. audience: “Dig it! Manson killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, then they shoved a fork into a victim’s stomach.”
In Chicago recently, Ms. Dohrn said of her remarks: “It was a joke. We were mocking violence in America. ..."
Obama:
...
NYT:
In 1970 ... the couple were indicted along with others in Federal Court for crossing state lines to incite a riot during the Days of Rage, and following that for “conspiracy to bomb police stations and government buildings.” Those charges were dropped in 1974 because of prosecutorial misconduct, including illegal surveillance.
...in 1977… Ms. Dohrn pleaded guilty to the original Days of Rage charge, received three years probation and was fined $1,500. ..."I felt grand juries were illegal and coercive,” she said.
Obama:
CHARGES AGAINST AYERS WERE DROPPED AND HE SERVED NO TIME
NYT:
Mr. Ayers describes watching “Underground,” Emile De Antonio’s 1976 documentary about the Weathermen. He was “embarrassed by the arrogance, the solipsism, the absolute certainty that we and we alone knew the way,” he writes. “The rigidity and the narcissism."
Obama:
REALITY: AYERS CONNECTION IS “PHONY,” TENUOUS,” “A STRETCH"
More on that connection at Just One Minute and American Thinker [Clarice Feldman]
Obama:
AYERS AND DOHRN BECAME RESPECTABLE FIXTURES OF THE MAINSTREAM IN CHICAGO
NYT:
Ms. Dohrn tried to practice law, taking the bar exam in New York. But she was turned down by the Bar Association’s character committee because of her political activities.

ToDaZeD What'll they think of next?!?
ToDaZeD Culchah WTF?!?
Natural and Logical Consequences of feminism + metrosexuality sitting in a tree dorm...
Erik Youngdahl and Michelle Garcia share a dorm room at Connecticut’s Wesleyan University. But they say there’s no funny business going on. Really. They mean it.
They have set up their beds side-by-side like Lucy and Ricky in “I Love Lucy,” and avert their eyes when one of them is changing clothes.
So where’d Little Ricky come from? Bloomies?
said Youngdahl, a 20-year-old sophomore. But “once you actually live in it, it doesn’t actually turn into a big deal."
Sophomoric, indeed.
I wonder if this is connected?
...college students today enter a low hook-up culture when they leave the classroom. In case you don’t know, a hook-up is a brief sexual encounter between two partners who don’t necessarily know each other before and who don’t necessarily want to know each other after. And it’s free. The sort of transient sex that once was available to men only for money can now be had, without paying, from college women – as long as the man is a fellow student and minimally artful about his approach.
...But most students also believe that “everyone does it,” even if the individual student, for some reason, cannot locate a partner. Thus an active minority sets the tone and makes hooking up a “culture.” When there are no sexual boundaries, either official or informal, the standard becomes the extreme, and all students feel the pressure to appear more promiscuous than they are. The traditional double standard of sexual conduct – more restrictive for women than for men – has been replaced by the single standard of the predatory male.
Not just here, either. Is this part of the “Lipstick up China for the Olympics” campaign?

Will the words “pork barrel spending” and “porker” be eliminated from the vernacular? Will Piggly Wiggly supermarkets be forced to change its name and re-brand its products?
