"What up", GOP? I thought you were the party of ideas and optimism? Where has all the gloom and doom come from?

Well, not to worry. When you're back in power, we'll once again reclaim the high ground of extraordinary infallibility in all things.

But still, I think you like hearing me say, "What up?!" Dontcha?

Posted on 10/13/09 at 05:08 pm in response to Obama's prize, what think?

#41 : "Jimmy Carter may have been one of the worst Presidents, but he is a very compassionate human being and was wholly worthy of his Nobel Prize."

- How magnanimous of you, Mr. Swift! The velvet glove is tattered, however.

#42 - "I'm more interested in what he does with the 1.4 million prize."

But, what business is this of anybody's? Not your hard-earned taxpayer's money, is it? He can do with it whatever his heart wishes!

#42 - Getting frothy in the mouth, are we?

#45 - "Are we all insane?"

Are you?

#46 - "No Guts No Glory ! BHO doesn't have either one!"

I suppose chicken-hawk Republicans who shoot their friends in the face do.

#6 - "Pffft" ... sounds like sour grapes to me! The Taliban are also making similar slobbery noises about this news now.

I can just imagine all the Obama haters wildly gnashing their teeth and pulling their hair out.

If for nothing else, in my view, Obama deserves this prize for tolerating and even turning the other cheek to the plethora of liars, and malcontent, greedy old people (you know yourselves.)

So when it is a Democrat in the White House, he is, all of a sudden, "PG" rated by parents.

But, strangely, these same fanatical parents may be losing out in the end. Now, the kids will be even more eager to hear what the President has to say to them that is so uncool to their parents.

The kids will rule in the end!

Somebody, please explain to me ... isn't Mrs. Bachmann supposed to be first and last a "fine, upstanding" Christian woman? What is she doing espousing pagan practices of wrist slitting and such? What next ... burning people on a pyre for thought enforcement?

I say, Mrs. Bachmann ... as long as we are on this train of madness, when are you going to ask us to stick our fingers into power outlets?
I will volunteer for that, but I'm also a gentleman. I say, lady, you first!

Posted on 08/27/09 at 01:06 pm in response to Remembering Kennedy: A modicum of reality is needed

"He was, ultimately, a politician, not a saint."

And Ted Kennedy will be the first person to acknowledge that. I don't know of any other politician who has admitted his frailties, and rehabilitated himself to worthy causes and with unparalleled passion! Above all, I think, he was a realist and his successes were a result of that. But, history will judge.

"In a particularly vitriolic and irresponsible speech on the Senate floor, he painted a lurid picture of 'Robert Bork's...

Mr. Pawlenty? What spine, what guts you are showing these days, sir?
First, you realized that you would be facing an inglorious defeat in 2010 if you ran for a third term as governor. As it is, you squeaked in by a tiny margin the last time around. But, that does not matter because you now have higher goals.
Second, you start to show a cynical and vacuous side with your inane and trite criticism of the President's efforts in Health Care Reform, in the Economy, and now in...

I think # 5 hit a nerve when he mentioned "trolls". Someone (not me) pretty near had a stroke.
