Gravatarreminding me that there is, in fact, a Senate race in Virgina

No there isn't. It's two former Governors of Virginia going at it.

One very popular, and one a dismal failure.

Warner will win by at least 25 points.


GravatarBasic grocery items rise 10.5% from last year

GravatarPalin Says She Is Disappointed by Campaign’s Michigan Decision
By Kate Zernike

DALLAS — Gov. Sarah Palin came out swinging after her recovery performance in the vice presidential debate Thursday night, declaring that she thought she had done “very well,” and expressing her opposition to her running mate’s decision to pull back from competing in Michigan.


Sarah, didn't anyone ever tell you that it's unseemly to heap praise upon yourself? You should wait for someone else to toot your horn.


GravatarBTW, "Virgina" is how some people pronounce a part of the human anatomy.


GravatarYeah, but the fuckin Cubs lost again. I know there is some sort of important election going on but jeez!


GravatarThere are not debates any more.

GravatarCats just don't give a damn, do they?


GravatarSo is there really a curse? (Debate)


GravatarYou should wait for someone else to toot your horn.

This may be one of those instances where if she didn't, it would be unlikely that others would do it for her....


GravatarWhat a nice guy! A little creepy looking but nice.


GravatarThe Palin's have released their taxes.

They didn't even file until September 3 after McCain picked her. Fortunately, the questions about her claiming per diem for staying at home, and claiming the reimbursements for flying Todd and the kids around as income came out afterwards.

They did not claim the per diem or the travel as income. Did not acknowledge it to the IRS.


GravatarThey didn't even file until September 3 after McCain picked her. Fortunately, the questions about her claiming per diem for staying at home, and claiming the reimbursements for flying Todd and the kids around as income came out afterwards.

What do you mean they didn't file until September 3? Somebody has to go to prison.


GravatarSarah, didn't anyone ever tell you that it's unseemly to heap praise upon yourself? You should wait for someone else to toot your horn.

Sara has a horn? I thought she was married to a dude?


GravatarOh, and miss holy roller only gave 1.5% to charity last year. She didn't tithe anything close to 10%. Much of their giving consisted of dropping off crap on December 31, 2007 to the Salvation Army for a tax write off.


GravatarThe Palin's have released their taxes.

Now if McLame would just release his medical records....


GravatarI can't believe they ran Jim Gilmore. Hell, he was so inept, they kicked him out of the RNC chair almost immediately.


GravatarBasic grocery items rise 10.5% from last year

If you food requirements for the family are at all complicated, the actual rise in cost can be much worse.

Feeding a weight lifting 20 year old, a diabetic wife, and me, who has to eat basically a vegetarian diet, with some meat.

Sounds like a scandal in the making. Will the press find it sexy enough? Does it wink?


GravatarI get the impression that Palin thinks Alaska is her country and not the UNITED STATES of America.


GravatarYou can file for a six month extension which would be due September 15th. They beat the deadline.

They paid $2,000 in taxes in April without filing.

They filed a few days after she was picked by McCain. In fact, they filed the day she gave her speech to the RNC.


Gravatar"I get the impression that Palin thinks Alaska is her country and not the UNITED STATES of America.|"

I think you're correct.

Texans are similar


GravatarNose/Bone, tasteless.


GravatarNow if McLame would just release his medical records....

Wife just mentioned that McCain had 33 lymph nodes removed as part of his surgery.

I was diagnosed with melanoma (stage II) and had 3 sentinel nodes removed (all clean). If he did have 33 sentinel nodes removed it would have to mean stage III melanoma. 10 year survival rate is less than 40%.


GravatarSara has a horn? I thought she was married to a dude?

GravatarCasu Marzu is a traditional sheep milk cheese found in Sardinia, Italy, notable for being riddled with live insect larvae. Casu marzu means "rotten cheese" in Sardinian and is known colloquially as maggot cheese.

The tiny translucen larvae, about 8 mm (1/3 inch) long can jump for distances up to 15 cm (6 inches) when disturbed.[1] Some people clear the larvae from the cheese before consuming; others do not.


GravatarThe late IRS filing for the Palin family is interesting.

I think most people have had to do this sometimes, but the question still arises from this. Why?


GravatarTexas bred Molly Ivins. The state's at least got some bragging rights.

Gravatar declaring that she thought she had done “very well,” and expressing her opposition to her running mate’s decision to pull back from competing in Michigan.

so it's official.

she's running for pres 2012.


GravatarOh, and Texas contains many luminaries here, such as RMJ, 4Legs, EkCenTrik, racymind...


GravatarPalin Tax Returns Released

Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign released Gov. Sarah Palin's tax returns for the previous two years, 2006 and 2008.

The information was expected on Monday, so a Friday afternoon drop is interesting.

Tax law experts are particularly interested in how she handled the per diem payments that she received as governor for staying in her own home.

Update: Paul Caron notes the per diem payments are not reported which is a potential problem.


GravatarThe late IRS filing for the Palin family is interesting.

Did the McCains ever pay up their California condo property taxes?


GravatarFeeding a weight lifting 20 year old

GravatarI've gone to TX for a number of conferences, and I don't know if I'd have had the same appreciation had I not been a Molly Ivins fan for many years.

She loved her home state, always referring to it as 'The Great State.'


GravatarSpeaking of tasteless, this tshirt concession is something below that. Just sick.

GravatarOh, and Texas contains many luminaries here, such as RMJ, 4Legs, EkCenTrik, racymind...

Gravatar"Speaking of tasteless, this tshirt concession is something below that."

Ok now I'm pissed.

that was awful


Gravatarso it's official.

she's running for pres 2012.


I 'd say she's running for pres this year by the looks of it. I also think most people who are for McCain are really voting for her for pres.


Gravatar"I think most people have had to do this sometimes, but the question still arises from this. Why?"
--Doug

I have filed on April 15th for the last seven or eight years. Use to be you could file on Aug. 15 without an excuse, but now, you have until Oct. 15 to file. Doesn't mean you won't get penalized if you haven't paid all your taxes, but the extension is there and valid.

GravatarScurvy is a disease which during the course of human prehistory and recorded history has killed more victims, caused more disease and suffering and has shortened the human life span more than any other single factor. (Stone, 1972).

This disease has been epidemic among humans ever since they appeared on this earth. If it weren’t for the high mortality of scurvy and its efficient control of population growth, our problems of over-population would have overwhelmed us centuries ago.

GravatarDuring the filming of Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat, the actors had to climb a ladder to get to the set (a lifeboat in a large tank of water). Tallulah Bankhead never wore underwear and delighted in shocking her fellow actors by climbing the ladder ahead of them.

A reporter visiting the set saw this and complained to studio head Darryl F. Zanuck, who sent a man to talk to Hitchcock about the situation. Hitchcock, who was always amused by Tallulah's antics, refused to interfere and told the man that it wasn't his department. The man asked, "Well, whose department is it?" Hitchcock mused for a moment and then said, "I don`t know if its a matter for wardrobe or hairdressing."

Probably the worst turnover condition since 1932.


GravatarOf course it does. The cool parts and people from Texas are the way they are because of (in part), not in spite of, being from/in Texas.

I have to agree with that. By a quirk of fate, I was born in Austin, but my family moved away to a small backwater town in the Rio Grande Valley when I was very young (divorce), where I lived with my mom and grandparents. I spent most of my formative years 1.5 miles down a dirt road from the nearest town, which was home to 5,000 souls. When I came back to Austin to go to college, it was like going to Heaven.

Gov. Palin Releases Law Firm Opinion Letter Justifying Her Not Reporting Per Diem Expenses as Income



Gov. Palin has released this opinion letter from Washington D.C. tax lawyer Roger M. Olsen stating that she was entitled to rely on the state of Alaska's determination that her per diem reimbursements do not constitute income to her:

"Unless employees have reason to know that the W-2 is incorrect, the IRS expects employees to rely on the employer's W-2 as prepared & filed with the IRS, as Governor Palin did. The income tax aspects of fringe benefits are complex and highly technical, and not subject to second-guessing by laymen. The State of Alaska is confident that its position is correct. Its employees were entitled to rely on that determination, So was Governor Palin."

Mr. Olsen has a tax LL.M. from George Washington and is a former Assistant Attorney General of the Department of Justice's Tax Division under President Reagan.


GravatarThey're gonna try to steal it again:

" NEW YORK - Barack Obama's tendency through the Democratic primaries to perform better in exit polls than he actually does at the ballot box has some media organizations nervous heading into Election Night.

Television networks want to avoid having their performance become an issue for the third straight presidential election. Their political experts hope that experience gained during the primaries will help things run smoothly Nov. 4"

GravatarAfter the past two Presidential campaigns, you would think that the Obama camp would have spent their money somewhere else. But they put a lot of resources down there.
Florida has been hurt badly by the burst of the housing bubble. There's a lot of pain in central Florida where people don't think McCain is the answer anymore. Obama spent $3.10M in Florida in the week ending September 30, compared to McCain's $0.44M. That's the Chicago way for moving poll numbers (assuming that they don't poll the graveyard).


GravatarOf all things, the National Debt scares me the most.

GravatarPros and Cons of the Cabbage Soup Diet

Pros: You'll lose weight fast, and can get as much of the foods listed in the program as you want. Although the diet is only for seven days (and shouldn't be adhered to for longer than Shared Humanity's priapism), it provides a great "kick-start" for a more moderate diet.

Cons: Some people find the soup bland. Some people have reported feeling light-headed, weak, and have suffered from decreased concentration (although some who have been affected in this way felt it was well worth it, since it was only for a week and they had lost considerable weight).

Hmm. I'll ask our IT guys if it's alright to install that (they probably have it on their computers). I know Java wants to download it every time I update.

it's just stupid to insist on the profs being able to only accept Word 07 when most of the students wouldn't have it and shouldn't be forced to have it.


GravatarWell, I would suppose that it's the State of Alaska's determination whether or not the per diem claims of Palin were for the state's convenience, or hers.

If it turns out that she manipulated that approval process, then the return just filed could come back to haunt her, but, if not, then it's not an issue, except for the citizens of Alaska as regards their interpretation of the abuse of perks.

Just put Malia and Sasha on the phone with the President of Paraguay. Those little girls are so damn cute and charming Karl and Harriet will be on the first plane back to the U.S. in shackles.

Sarah is impressed with her own breasts. ($$$$$$$$$) She's breast fed five kids, I assume; unless she gave them moosemilk.

GravatarSpeakin' of Texas stuff, this morning I narrowly avoided hitting an armadillo. He was just poking across the road and fortunately I was going slow enough (even though it was still dark) I managed to brake and let him pass. You almost never see live ones anymore.


GravatarI think Palin's right. The McCain campaign should certainly spend more money in Michigan. A lots in Illinois, California, New York and Massachusetts. Lots and lots in Massachusetts.


GravatarHmmmmmm, those $$$$ were supposed to be ??????, but.......

I drove across Texas exactly once, about 20 years ago, from Beaumont to El Paso. I never once saw a live armadillo, but man did I see a lot of dead ones.


GravatarIn an age when high-powered accounting firms and tax lawyers do the income tax filings for elected officials, the Palins had H&R Block do theirs.

Gravatar"She's breast fed five kids, I assume; unless she gave them moosemilk."

GravatarI mean half a trillion of the annual federal budget, just to pay the interest on money we've already run through?

Um, are there alarm bells going off anywhere?


GravatarThe crowd gathered to hear Obama at a Pennsylvania high school football field booed when he told them the numbers and again when he told them McCain recently said the economy is fundamentally strong and has made great progress under President Bush.


GravatarOf course they're going to attempt to steal the election.  That's axiomatic.

GravatarMcCain recently said the economy is fundamentally strong and has made great progress under President Bush.

In the business section of one of the local newspapers yesterday, there was doom and gloom except for the one bright spot, defense contractors.

I'd say for the right sorts of business, Chimpy has been successful.


GravatarHmmm, haloscam eated my comment.

They're most certainly trying to steal another election.

We've yet to read this Brennan report, but the brief coverage from tonight's Evening News notes 10,000 voters purged in Mississippi, 21,000 in Louisiana and "to top it off, another new study discovered 19 states are ignoring federal law (the National Voter Registration Act), banning systematic purges within 90 days of a federal election."

Among those 19, are a number of battleground states. The report lists: Alabama, Colorado, Connecticut, Delware, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Masachusetts, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Texas and Washington, as places where massive purges have recently taken place.

Though never explicitly explained why, a character is presented with repeated classic straight lines and you see a visible but very brief struggle and suppression of the punch line rejoinder.

GravatarTN repuke Zack Wamp says he cast a blue collar vote. He didn't say if a voter was attached to it at the time.


GravatarUm, are there alarm bells going off anywhere?

There should be, but, as long as there's no spending limit on the Sino-Japanese VISA card, no one's going to notice until they can't even pay the interest....


GravatarSome years ago I was driving on a rural blacktop when I hit some strange animal. It was dark, and it looked like some kind of long, narrow beast.
I turned around to see what it was, only to find it was a mother raccoon followed by kits, pups or whatever they are. The horrible thing was I hit a couple more that were milling around where their mother was laying. I felt terrible.


GravatarStealing this election too hard. Too big gap. Too many states. Better just strip mine what we can from country. Run heap perky Sarah next time.

Not much eatin' here, Sallyh. Hardly *any* body fat on the little beaties. That' s why they won't ever be able to migrate too far north. Also, I have this theory (AAAA hem) that they perhaps might enjoy the relative heat of asphalt roads at night, and that's why they tend to get run over on them.

That's a good example, probably better than the neurosurgeon example I've used in conversations with people.

i had a black widow living in the corner of my front door frame. which i found after noticing the web brushing my chest when i went through the door shirtless.

lost of them living in the water heater shed, and of course on the underside of the car if it was left parked for a couple of days.

they might be fun pets, but in the semi-wild they are a bit scary.

GravatarI would love to know how he got "Palin should kill Trig" from people saying that they are offended by Palin using the child as a prop for her campaign.

IIRC, it was cancelled almost immediately and became an instant punchline on Carson (who was appearing on the same network!)...


Carson was actually blamed for the demise by the producers of the show, because he was ridiculing it during his monologues from the moment it debuted.

It lasted 9 episodes, according to the imdb. NBC aired the first 7, stopped for a month to try and revamp it, aired 2 more, and then canceled it.

It was basically the "Heaven's Gate" of TV series. A very, very expensive flop.

Fannie Mae said it will set aside the loan of a woman who shot herself as sheriff's deputies tried to evict her from her foreclosed home.

Fannie Mae foreclosed on the Akron, Ohio, home of Addie Polk, 90, after acquiring the mortgage in 2007.

Addie Polk, 90, of Akron, Ohio, became a symbol of the nation's home mortgage crisis when she was hospitalized after shooting herself at least twice in the upper body Wednesday afternoon.

On Friday, Fannie Mae spokesman Brian Faith said the mortgage association had decided to halt action against Polk and sign the property "outright" to her.

Heartbreaking, really.

Man, Audrey bent my ear during dinner tonight.

She's so frustrated with her dad.

When I was married to him, he was a solid liberal, and that was one of the few things we had in common. (Well, that, and books and music.)

The other night, he and his wife dropped Aud off, and he told her to "trash those Obama signs that your pinko mom has in the yard."

She called him a hypocrite, because just a couple of months ago, he told her he was voting for Obama.

Apparently, it started a huge fight between the ex and his wife, because the wife is voting for McCain, and she thought she had Pete roped into doing the same thing, too. In fact, the family was at a party on Tuesday, and his wife went up to Lauri and started a fight with her because she wasn't voting for McCain. The wife says, "I'm so disappointed in you. You, like Sarah Palin, have a child with Down Syndrome."

Audrey was mortified, walked over, and told them, "From here on out, discussions about politics are banned." She then looked at her aunt and mouther, "I'm voting Obama," and Lauri nodded and smiled.

Regardless, Aud is frustrated because she thinks her dad is a total and complete wimp for not standing up to his wife on an issue as personal as politics. I'm glad my kid gets it, that being a wimp is a negative thing. And she also understands why I left him.


Gravatar"Is Palin the Messiah for McCain?"

''' “Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin quoted an unidentified “writer” who extolled the virtues of small-town America: “We grow good people in our small towns, with honesty and sincerity and dignity.” (9/3/0 The unidentified writer was Westbrook Pegler (1894-1969), the ultraconservative newspaper columnist whose widely syndicated columns (at its peak, 200 newspapers and 12 million readers) targeted the New Deal establishment, labor leaders, intellectuals, homosexuals, Jews, and poets.” '''

Jews, he said, could not be the victims of persecution because persecution “connotes injustice…They are, instead, enduring retaliation, or punishment.” (D. Levitas, The Terrorist Next Door: The Militia Movement and the Radical Right, Macmillan, 2002, p. 71.)
He advanced the theory that American Jews of Eastern European descent were “instinctively sympathetic to Communism, however outwardly respectable they appeared.” (The New York Times, Obituary: “Free-Swinging Critic,” June 25, 1969, p. 43).

He had a habit of calling Jews “geese” because they, in his words, hiss when they talk, gulp down everything before them, and foul everything in their wake. (Diane McWhorter, “Revisiting the controversial career of Westbrook Pegler,” Slate, March 4 2004).

(...)In 1963, less than 3 months after Martin Luther King Jr., delivered his famous “I Have a Dream Speech,” he wrote in a column, “[It is] clearly the bounden duty of all intelligent Americans to proclaim and practice bigotry.” (D.

We had a lead on a corrupt Republican who was stealing money from the middle class using extortion and blackmail to get his way. We were told that he didn't have time to meet with us and sent his lawyers instead. After I nerve pinched 'em Dave and I walked into his office.

The office was the size of swimming pool but soon he will be in a cell the size of a changing room.

"Guards!" he shouted

"Nobody there. Your guards sold you out when they found out that you were responsible for the bailout and that you wanted THEM to pay for it on their 14 dollar an hour salary."

"LAWYERS!" he screamed

"I gave 'em a nerve pinch. When they come too they will be in here trying to defend you, but don't expect them to help too much, remember Republican's hate lawyers especially trial lawyers. And that unreasonable search and seizure you didn't think was important? Well guess whose stuff we are going to unreasonably going to search now?"
"You can't do this to me!!! I'm a Bush pioneer! I have money! I'm a taxpayer!"
"Actually you aren't a taxpayer. That's why I'm here. Book 'em Davo, Murder one."
"But I didn't murder anyone."
"But you did, the hopes and dreams of an entire middle class. And they want justice."

GravatarMore on Pegler from RFK Jr in Huffpo:

''' Fascist writer Westbrook Pegler, an avowed racist who Sarah Palin approvingly quoted in her acceptance speech for the moral superiority of small town values, expressed his fervent hope about my father, Robert F. Kennedy, as he contemplated his own run for the presidency in 1965, that "some white patriot of the Southern tier will spatter his spoonful of brains in public premises before the snow flies." '''

What possible positive message could McCain produce?

He's got nothing to run on. Nothing.

If he talked about his please the rich GOPers policy ideas, he'd sink even further, since they are the exact opposite of what people want and need at the moment.

Personally, I'd love to see him make his "tax your medical benefits, run health insurance like an investment bank, increase the number of uninsured by 10,000,000" healthcare plan the centerpiece of his campaign.
He'd have a shot at losing all 50 states.

Just clipped him on the end of a finger and after three days, the swelling was bad enough that the doctors told him they'd have to surgically slit the skin the next day to keep the skin from tearing apart. Fortunately, the swelling started to subside that night.

He was sick for weeks from that one small bite.

those fucking cotton mouths would come swimming across the lake and try to chase our boat.

Gravatara hate film, to be sure

It is entirely possible for a "hate" film to be startlingly well put together or intelligent: the most salient quality of this movie, as with the anti-science "Expelled" feature that preceded it, is how dumb it is. There is a gag where Not Moore says "guns are not the answer," while holding a shotgun that manages to go off, and lo the bad guy is shot and Dennis Hopper says, "Nice shot!" The worst warmed-over audience-filled episode of "The Awful Truth" is smarter than this.
