Wow. That's unexpected good news. Thanks!

Of course, I just realized it's Wednesday. Which means, if shit goes down again, it will happen precisely three hours from now. (hee)

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

F4W are going to set up a BTL page with the various groups linked (plus what they are doing) in place of the pencils thing, apparently. Huzzah!

So Huckabee. Completely insane?

Former Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas today professed his support for the striking television writers union just a few hours before he was expected to board a plane to for a taping of the Jay Leno show where he will face a vocal picket line of striking writers.

Mr. Leno's program is returning to the air for the first time since a long hiatus for the strike. Speaking to reporters, Mr. Huckabee said he was unaware that he would be crossing picket lines and believed that he the program had reached a special agreement with the union.

Although crossing picket lines might not be unusual for most Republican candidates, Mr. Huckabee has waged an unusual populist campaign on economic issues, stressing his empathy with the anxieties of working people. On Wednesday, he said he identified with the striking television workers as an author himself and believed they deserved a share of the proceeds from the sale of their work.

Well he is completely insane, but I think this is a case of stupid. The simplest explanation is that he can't tell the difference between Leno and Letterman.

He needs to fire his publicity team. And punch himself in the face if he crosses the picket line after seeing those people.

Our wings are not tired.

Well he is completely insane, but I think this is a case of stupid.

Possibly both insane and stupid, but his publicity people know that huge numbers of people are going to watch the guy on Leno. (not me, but then again he didn't have any chance at getting my vote anyway)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Huckabee is making a name for himself as the most uninformed candidate. Wasn't he the one that didn't know anything about that report that came out that said there was no nuclear program in Iraq?
