I think there needs to be a Matilda & Emmett fan club....

I am speechless... From Sullivan:

Palin: Kissinger Is Naive

His notion that leaders in the US should actually engage the leaders of other powers in order to negotiate is, according to the vice-presidential candidate for the Republicans:

That's beyond naïve. And it's beyond bad judgment.

She also denied that Kissinger even believed such a thing:

I've never heard Henry Kissinger say, "Yeah, I'll meet with these leaders without preconditions being met."

Ilan Goldenberg has. What must Kissinger and Baker and Scowcroft think about their party now?

Someone who before her selection had only one single, semi-coherent thing to say about foreign policy in her entire career, could now become president at a moment's notice in one of the most perilous times in world history.

The days when Republicanism meant actual responsibility and judgment and experience and realism have been replaced by gimmicks, pure politics, Fox fem-bots, and constant, random gambling with the most dangerous things imaginable.

I don't think that the equal time rules are gone, but they don't apply to news or news interviews. So, if PBS wanted to use the time to interview Obama, McCain can't call for equal time.

Some news person or other said it looked like McCain was falling apart right in front of us. Perhaps the stress of the campaign and/or his age is aggravating some health problems.

I think his campaign got blindsided. I think his camp decided that suspending the campaign and canceling the debate would make him look presidential and putting country first (fits message, perfect). Obama's camp would have to follow and make Obama look bad for following McCain's lead. Obama didn't do what he supposed to do and that has painted McCain into a corner.

I saw a Roslyn-Airlock 08 bumper sticker today.

That's marvellous. Earlier this year my supervisor asked me if there was a particular title for our section (we'd had a re-org, he'd just taken over). I told him "The Lords of Kobol". Apparently he's using it.

That's beyond naïve. And it's beyond bad judgment.

Sarah PALIN is calling Henry fucking KISSINGER....naive???

Has Alaska been on another planet all this time and we just never noticed?

GA (again) - you know what would rock? if Christina took him up on his offer and joined the army. A GI Military show with McKidd and Oh! But then, we'd have it from Shonda Rimes and it would probably suck.

But seriously: if there was a Christina spin-off with Kevin McKidd - I'd never have to watch GA again.

So has Kissinger had anything to say about it?
