Which party's nod is he running for - because last I checked, the KOS kids find such actions an impeachable offense.
What you're experiencing is what we call in other contexts "homosexual panic."

it's been a while, but you were the one who thought 9/11 was a simple crime, weren't you?

Yup, preferably charged in juvenile court or handled as a civil matter. In addition, I felt the Cold War should have been handled by a referral to Triple-A Commercial, and the Roanoke Colonists could have only benefitted from community conflict resolution with the Croatan.

I like the idea. I just think that it's a more effective tactic if one odesn't get caught.

Actual AP headline: "Bush Visits Wrecked Minnesota Bridge"

I read the article and there was absolute no real evidence of causation. Fuckin' liberal media.

I love atticus, but ultimately his opinions are no more evidence than Ty's blogs. Here's the news:
  • U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a Minnesota Democrat, suggested Bush administration spending on the Iraq war may have crimped funding for domestic projects such as road and bridge construction, and for such infrastructure projects as new levees for New Orleans.

    "We've spent $500 billion in Iraq and we have bridges falling down in this country," Klobuchar told MSNBC. "I see a connection between messed-up priorities."

Apres nous, le deluge.
 
Speaking of new levees for New Orleans, here's an excellent long piece in Time describing the sorry state of the Army Corps of Engineers and the lower Mississippi. No one comes off looking good.

"You know, Tom Carvel built this when he got dinged from that place down the road. A little bit of history for you there, Hammy. Heh."

You think anyone gets any at YearlyKos? I'm thinking its Trekkie type of deal... Anywhere I can get photos? Google image isn;t coughing up much.

It reveals that Obama is a bit of tone-deaf clod, and that Hillary is has virtually secured the Dem nomination.
I kind of like Hillary today. It always works that way when a candidate gets Paul Krugman's ire.

Some of us worship Jesus as our God. This board is not as much a free form attack as the board you typically infest. If you do come here, I hope you at least try to bring some content, but regardless of my hopes, I must insist that you not offend the religous beliefs of those who post here.
