Hey, once O'Malley is sworn in, Baltimore will have its first ever female mayor.
We use the latest in scientific technology and state-of-the-art weaponry and you, if I understand correctly, poke them with a sharp stick.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Yes Buffistas, there is a Santa Claus.
Not yet there ain't. He's still cramming his fat ass down the throats of the current administration.
When he pops out wearing blue, I'll believe.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
I was never talking about the Big Talking Heads, just saying I've seen liberals be as vile on the internets, too,
Maybe, I'll bet the same thing happens as in the big media. Yeah some vile things are said by both sides, but the vile things on the left side of the spectrum are said on obscure blogs nobody pays attentions to, and in unmoderated comment sections - where on the right some of the most vile things are said by high ranking bloggers.

The news thing in my elevator just now said Rummy is stepping down - details to come.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm trying so hard to avoid calling up some conservative-leaning friends and doing an "In your FACE!!!" It's much harder than I would have anticipated, given that I'm being very cautious in my optimism.
I texted one last night: Feeling Blue?
Maybe just make chicken noises at Rummy? I'm finding it very pleasurable.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
DH often sent me links to rants - and I found I couldn't read them - esp if I agreed with them. But then Ihave always believed in measured , logical response.
I am feeling very happy today, like my counry isn't quite as crazy as it felt.I'm not sure what I want, but I know I'd like to see some positive helpful things ( an actual plan in Iraq that will get people home, a move towards national healthcare , and maybe some better communications between polcie, fire, hospitals, the national guard, etc for times of trouble, both natural and the much rarer man made distaters). dreams.

What is even happening?
I get you, Cindy. I never like to read hateful rants, either, especially in the service of something I agree with. It's definitely human to wish ill on others, but I wish that those aligned with what I consider the more humanist political positions could keep those thoughts on the inside.
I'm ashamed to admit I do sometimes enjoy watching the "WOES!" sorts of posts, when I'm not sympathetic to the cause. I think probably comes from the same place that little "In your FACE!!!" feeling comes from, that Frank mentions.
