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

Make sure you read the back cover copy.

OMG, that is funny.

Wait, is it supposed to be funny?

Elevate, shrift! And take lots of pain meds.

IpoliticalN, Eugene Robinson has a great column about what Obama's campaign has meant to him.

But an amazing thing happened. In the Iowa caucuses, white Americans voted for the black guy. That's the moment Obama was referring to when he said his faith in the American people was vindicated. For me, it was the moment when the utterly impossible became merely unlikely. That's a fundamental change, and it launched a sequence of events over the subsequent months that made me realize that some things I "knew" about America were apparently wrong.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

AWESOME. I so want the film rights on this to be picked up.

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

Yay! Voted before dropping Franny off at school.

I mean, if Obama or McCain came equipped with a magical unicorn army that would grant peace and prosperity to all, then that would be a better choice.

The magical unicorn convo is making me laugh. My daughter's class at school voted to call themselves the Magical Unicorns. Which, now that I think about it, means that perhaps one of them does have a magical unicorn army supporting them. It's just a very small one.

Obama's grandmother was able to send in her absentee ballot before she passed, so at least she was able to vote for her grandson.

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

Those violent unicorns can't strategize for SHIT. You don't go and attack the prom date of a girl who can kill you as long as she's a virgin.

I think we've found the Republican attack angle: Voter Fraud!

Because books.

Sadly, NO.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I got free coffee! I almost never go to Starbucks, but will always go for something free. I'm pretty sure they've given me more than I've paid them over the years.

“Not dead yet!”

Wait, is it supposed to be funny?

Sadly, NO.

Neither is the six-figure advance paid for that.
