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.
Recommended punshiment for Wilson -- a 10-page essay explaining why "we're ashamed the president is from Texas" and "Stop the War" T-shirts at presidential appearances were inappropriate and even treasonous for the last eight years, but out-and-out calling the President a liar on the floor of Congress and carrying assault rifles outside presidential appearances are now appropriate. With Cindy Sheehan and Natalie Maines to decide whether his work is adequate.
Brilliant.
So, maybe I should just get RCN?
I'm not a huge fan, but they're certainly better than Comcast.
Ugh. I just shared bad news at work that I actually got yesterday, but sat on. Yesterday was a Good News Day and I didn't want to ruin it. Fuck.
Ugh.
After the speech, Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff who sat a few rows in front of Mr. Wilson, said he immediately approached senior Republican lawmakers to encourage them to identify the heckler and urge him to issue an apology quickly.
PIMP HAND!!!
I'm just saying, is all.
From Sparkymonster's LJ (this isn't our Sparky, unless there's something I missed): [link] -- when Wilson called Obama to apologize, he got Rahm Emanuel on the phone. Ahahahaha!!!
Also, dig the screencap she has in that entry. That is a beautiful thing.
t edit Oh, and from that LJ entry, joewilsonisyourpreexistingcondition.com already exists. I love the internets.
I'll bet there were forty-two "motherfuckers" in that conversation. Cause it's the fuckin' answer to everything. duh. Boy, I bet that little outburst from the stands is feeling *Much* less worthwhile today. Like he'd prefer a nice rectal exam kinds of "Much less worth it."
Sparkmonster is not our Sparky but she is awesome. And that screencap is AWESOME.
People! I expect to find important news being discussed at b.org, not piddly presidential speeches and the like. Nicole Richie had her baby (a boy) and named him Sparrow James MIdnight Madden. Oy.
Also, dig the screencap she has in that entry. That is a beautiful thing.
Okay, not to beat the Rahm thing to death, but anyone else get the distinct impression that that smirk on Obama's face seems to suggest, "Oh man, is Rahm gonna fuck your shit up."
