Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

What's the "Biden is a Misogynist" thing?

I think it's just anticipating the Republican spin when Biden debates her.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

And on the PUMA thing, I really think it has been blown out of proportion by the media and McCain's campaign. I mean really how many Democratic women are going to vote for McCain because they are pissy Clinton didn't get nominated, not very many at all I don't think.

Most of the polls I've seen have shown Obama with some ridiculous advantage among women, consistently hovering around 20 points ahead of McCain. So, yeah, I'm fairly skeptical of the actual size or impact of PUMAPAC.

Shakesville also reported on an ABC article about PUMAPAC that discussed the whole "movement" seriously and uncritically but mentioned, almost parenthetically, that one of the founders and biggest talkers is a lifelong Republican who'd given something like 20K to the R's this election cycle and then gave Hillary 2K after Super Tuesday. So, not exactly the scorned and bitter long-time Dem the article portrayed her as.

I keep thinking, in our world, what is normal and what is perfect?"

Her views on this don't seem to extend to gay people.

That's a lifestyle choice.

What's the "Biden is a Misogynist" thing? Did he call his wife a cunt?

He's going to be arguing with a woman on national TV, and (I presume) wiping the floor with her. Rather than admit their candidate is a millionare wingnut with no experience, I predict that the GOP will play up the fact that she's a woman and Joe Biden is a big mean meanieface for disagreeing with her..

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

What if someone has Downs Syndrome AND is gay?

JZ, do you have a link for that? Sounds like great material for my friend's McCain comic.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

How did Palin get her money? Inherited it?

Also, I agree with Jessica that PUMA just smells of a NeoCon front, much like the Swift-Boaters.
