'Shells'
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.
Ha. I don't have anything that they match, either, but my plan is to ignore this, and to just wear them with everything, ignorantly and blissfully.
Okay, my first plan is not to buy them. My second plan is to wear them with everything. 35% off! Free shipping!
They are beautiful boots. But in my work clothes that include pretty conservative dresses from Banana Republic and Ann Taylor--- not so matchy.
I love those boots, esp given that lace up boots are the only kind that fit me. Mmmmmm.
I am having a hard time wrapping my head around that Huckabee statement. Was he trying to make a joke?

I don't think so. Stewart said something like, "We have freedom of religion, and religion is much more of a choice than homosexuality is," and Huckabee responded with that.
I say this as someone who has boots that lace like hell (juliana knows the ones)
Oh good lord those are a bitch to get on and off. I loves 'em, though. And am verrrrrrry tempted by those new DMs, too.
egad.
But you know, if you're gonna think along those lines we also tend to force Jehovah's Witness parents to allow their kids to receive life-saving blood transfusions. So we're basically the kind of country where your religious freedom ends when someone's earthly life is at stake.
I doubt it. Take it in the context of his comments to Joy Behar a couple of weeks ago:
Today on ABC’s “The View,” former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabe discussed his pride that an African-American has been elected president. When host Joy Behar asked if he feels the same about gay rights, he said that the two were “a different set of rights,” and suggested that the gay rights movement hasn’t suffered enough violence to be a real issue:
HUCKABEE: It’s a different set of rights. People who are homosexuals should have every right in terms of their civil rights, to be employed, to do anything they want. But that’s not really the issue. I know you talked about it and I think you got into it a little bit early on. But when we’re talking about a redefinition of an institution, that’s different than individual civil rights.
BEHAR: Well, segregation was an institution, too, in a way. It was right there on the books.
HUCKABEE: But here is the difference. Bull Connor was hosing people down in the streets of Alabama. John Lewis got his skull cracked on the Selma bridge
He's clearly got some weird-ass shit going on in his head where your rights aren't really being violated enough to matter until you're bloody in the streets (which, hello, not like it's never happened). This isn't getting at quite the same thing, but it makes me think he's serious about whatever the hell his point actually is.
(Also, when did The View - The View - become one of the harder hitting interview programs on tv? Because it's warping my worldview.)

According to Jezebel.com, right around HRC's bid. Maybe even before that, but that's when they started getting press for being no-nonsense.
someone did a whole piece this election cycle on when things get down to it, comedians do the best serious interviews because they get right to the points and don't back away.
t not really here, am in bed.
