Meanwhile, the paper pretty much ignored Coleman's embarrassing Suitgate when it popped up earlier this month. The story erupted when Harper's Ken Silverstein claimed that wealthy Coleman donor Nasser Kazeminy had, over the years, bought expensive suits for the politician at Neiman Marcus.
A waste of money. Coleman looks shabby no matter how he's dressed.

On Thursday, the newspaper's editor Nancy Barnes distributed a newsroom memo announcing that the paper's columnists should refrain from political commentary until November 5.
Perhaps folks should refrain from buying that paper.

That's really sad about the STrib. Used to be a good mid-sized town paper with really good editorial policies. Until it changed hands, of course.
I think I will take a long too.

Quote from Nagourney's piece in the NYT today, and from a Republican at that:
“He has the best political organization for a presidential campaign that I have ever seen here,” Tom Slade, a former state Republican chairman, said of Mr. Obama. “Bar none. He has run a phenomenally good campaign.”
Notice he didn't say that his campaign staff ran a good campaign, but HE did. It's highest praise.

Someone tell Palin: one difference between a community organizer and a governor is that a community organizer knows how to -- organize people.

I look at him, all I see is teeth.
He could wear a wedding dress and I probably wouldn't notice.

RE: Franken's comment about Cardinal O'Connor.
A few years ago, here in Boston, asking a crowd of lay Catholics, "Cardinal Law, is he a fucking scumbag or what?" would have gotten you a standing ovation.

The logical response to that would be, well, a governor knows how to, you know, govern. But I doubt it'd occur to her.

Oh, I see you haven't had MY kale, which makes a believer out of even New Englanders such as yourself! Onions, garlic, ginger, simmered in beef broth for a long time. V, v good eating. Autumn in a bowl.

Law got a nice cushy job in the Vatican for his part in the pedophile priest coverup.
The Catholic Church is a lot like the Repig Party.

She declines and instead offers to spell 'Statue of Liberty', to resounding wingnut cheers.
The origin of the Statue of Liberty goes unremarked upon.

there should be more in congress that criticize religion in general for its hypocrisy and dividing of all the people into specific niches that the religious powers can manipulate to their will, not fewer if there are any now. religion is a scourge on all nations and keeps fair thinking people from reaching their potential as caring partners to all they share their nation and the world with.
