You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

You know what is really disturbing here. "Got 'er did" What the hell tense is that?

Past perfect idiot.

"socialism" (generally undefined

It's the label you pick up when the "liberal" label runs out of bullets.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

More Palin idiocy (she still doesn't understand what the vice-president does): Me fail civics? That's unpossible!

I'm not posting the actual quote because I fear we're reaching diminishing returns on highlighting examples of Palin idiocy....

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I have no idea what "Got 'er did" means. I clearly am not a real American. Sigh. I'll add that to the list of things that I'm not really. As a kid I was often told I wasn't really Jewish, nor am I really a Catholic. As far as I can tell, I'm a real woman, so at least there's that.

I also may be a real bitch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I read that yesterday, and, while its really fucking hysterical, it ALSO captures it perfectly. Given how different Obama and McCain are, I cannot fathom how someone can be undecided at this point.

I finally did get this -- I can understand it from people who have severe problems with both of them, but are not yet checked out of politics entirely.

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

I can understand it from people who have severe problems with both of them, but are not yet checked out of politics entirely.

I think most undecideds are people who are unhappy with the Republicans and don't really like McCain, but are afraid of Obama. So that's why Obama's campaign has been purposefully designed to show Obama as calm, approachable, cool under pressure, and reassuring.

And I think most of the undecideds have tipped towards Obama because of the success of that campaign.

Although some have argued it's more to do with the utterly reprehensible campaign McCain and Palin have run.
