Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I just want the POTUS to have to answer questions about whether an investigation will be done on his own administration's leaking of CIA records of an undercover agent (Plame) to a GOP paid plant using a false name to hide his side business running a gay military escort service.

My cynicism is such now that I think what should have been a deep reaching scandal on the order of Watergate, will evaporate in a whirl of spin.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

... back off to work for the totally cursory check-in just in case the 8:30 video shoot group actually does show up. Curse this inconvenient sense of work ethics!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

What's interesting to me is that Kos broke a story that is causing the House to send letters demanding an investigation, CNN is running the story, and that dude just "resigned" from the WH Press Corps.

Go Kos!

But, Hec, Watergate wasn't Watergate when it started. (Pessimistic optimism since 1973)

Well, not until they could link it into the Oval Office itself. Fuck, I thought Abu Ghraib was enough to take Rumsfeld out. I was wrong. Hence, the more cynicism. Then they made the guy who justified torture the new Attorney General, and cynicism seemed quaint.

This is also true. But at the time, they were all "I guess we need to send somebody to this."(As you remember better than I.)

Did you see All The President's Men? Then we got the same sources.

Duh! Is the Pope...oh, well, don't wanna go there again. Yes, I've seen it twice. The Front Page and His Girl Friday too.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is the Pope...

The Guardian answers the tough questions.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I need to focus on my getting of bonus rather than on the fact that I was criticized in my review today. I am far from a perfect employee: boo. I am an imperfect employee who is closer to buying a house: yay!
