I expect Wilson will be on Fox wall to wall.

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
I expect Palin/Wilson unless we catch him with a live boy or a dead girl.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
The Boy had a board meeting tonight and missed the speech, and he just called while driving home. The following conversation ensued:
Me: "A Congressman actually HECKLED the president!"
The Boy: "...did Rahm Emanuel punch him in the face?"
Me: "Regarding the 'death panels,' Obama surprised everyone by killing and eating an elderly person on camera."
The Boy: "I would have thought John McCain was too stringy to eat raw."

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Nah. McCain's been marinating in bitterness since the sixties.
He's just...tart.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Good speech. Not happy about the not-funding-abortions thing, but I'm holding on to hope that that will be eroded away once the thing is finally done. Otherwise? What a joy to have an erudite president whom I can listen to without cringing.
And Wilson actually called him a liar. Un-fucking-believable.

The Boy: "...did Rahm Emanuel punch him in the face?"
You know, it occurs to me that there has been a disappointing lack of Rahm Emanuel face punching since all this started. I think Rahm should be giving republicans the pimp hand every day before breakfast.

Trust my rage
I almost feel that Wilson's comment was so out of line that it hurts his side. I saw via Twitter that McCain called on him to apologize.
Eta: and yes, we need more Rahm Emmanuel.
