I can kinda' see this working if the person is a complete asshole (or they decide to portray the person as such), but what if they're not?

Or what if they're armed?

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

Or what if they're armed?

Now that would be funny... in a sick, fucked up way....

Keeping my current coverage next year as a self-employed person: $700

If that is per year, that is an amazingly good rate. If that is per month -- eep!

“Not dead yet!”

In the unrepentant suck-up of the day,

Gov. Sarah Palin said Wednesday that she would be honored to help President-elect Barack Obama in his new administration, even if he did hang around with an "unrepentant domestic terrorist."

The Alaska governor said in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer that she would be willing to help if Obama asked her for assistance on some of the issues she highlighted during this year's campaign, such as energy or services for special-needs children.

Huh. British Columbia. Not too far from Alaska....

Yes, Obama, the socialist terrorist pal, definitely needs advice from someone's whose oil company experience consists of getting a large check from them and who, when asked about her concerns about running for vice president, did not mention her family, including her special needs child.

From the site that tommyrot linked to, I like this.

Reminds me a little of the time I was on the bus and it couldn't make a turn because some moron had parked illegally ('cause they were just running into the store for one thing). We had a football team or something on board the bus - a number of large, strong, young men. They piled out, picked up the illegally parked car, moved it so it wasn't blocking the bus's turn. Then calmly got back on the bus, were applauded, and we went on our way. It was a small car, but still - impressive.

Well, Obama - being an intelligent man - could listen to Palin and then do the opposite.
