Did you not get the memo? Diplomacy makes Jesus cry.

Hidden lesson: Transactional lawyers have no appreciation for the danger to a frequent litigant of setting bad precedent. Like an insurance company getting a really really really bad coverage decision.

That said, it's hilarious that between Kerry and Bush, in Slave's mind Kerry is the one putting soldiers in harm's way. If he just showed up for another 10% of Senate votes, he could control the weather, too.

Motherfuck. How is it we keep getting stuck being responsible for Republican initiatives we vociferously and unsuccessfully oppose?

In litigation, we argue that unguarded moments are guileless ones. It's the basis for the hearsay exceptions you're most likely to remember, like Dying Declaration, Present State of Mind, and Folksy Moment with NBC Morning Show Host.

Handing over Iraq to the Iraqis is insanity. Some o' them fuckers is shooting us.

Thanks, Ty. The Spanish commentary has been sorely absent for some time. I feel positively refreshed catching up. What color white do they really favor for flags, anyway?
Psst. Your man Slave puts a lot of credence in individual Spaniards, and he's been covering for your ungrateful ass while you've attended to other priorities. Don't shit where you eat.

How exact? Can all the GOP members who voted to deprive our independent judiciary of the ability to hear pledge cases be called "Baptistists?"

"Doy," nor "No doy"? You decide!
 
Viewers of Jon Stewart's show are more likely to have completed four years of college than people who watch "The O'Reilly Factor," according to Nielsen Media Research.

I have said many times that I think this will be a close race (absent a complete drubbing this Thursday). But I do think that Bush will win, and I'm happy about this for many reasons, one of which is that we won't have to hear from the frenchman again for a while (or at least until 2006, if he pulls an Al Gore).

I'm sure, however, that the left will have innumerable excuses for the lost (e.g., the swiftvets, Florida, Kerry didn't go negative enough, etc.). So I'd like you people to go on the record with your excusses now, so that we won't have backfill later. If Kerry should lose, what are the excuses?

efs
There are no excuses. He's the worst candidate of all time.

The anemic left's current campaign of "Its not Kerry's fault that he's thoughtful and complex (see: longwinded and scatterbrained) - the problem is with the stupid American voters and their 30 sec attention spans" is probably the worst band-aid that could be applied. "So, how should we address the fact that John can't shorten his message to a good soundbite? Hmmm... lets call the audience stupid. Then they'll listen." Carville must be downing bourbons buy the half-dozen. He'll be lucky to have a job handicapping city council races on local cable after the damage being connected with this lead zeppelin of a campaign does to his name...*

* Hindenberg is my preferred analogy, but Kerry's never been airborn.

You may fire when ready, Gridley.
"Yeah, well Rove said if I start holding hands with world leaders surveys are showing we'll pick up some momentum in a place called Marin County. He said if we can get California tight to within a few points, there's a more agressive phase 2 we'll have to consider to get votes out of a place called Che or Fidel, no wait Castro!"

Unlike Kerry, you guys seem to think that Bush is a strong candidate, and he certainly has all the advantages of incumbency. So if he loses, it's pretty much a referendum on his policies, right?
specifically on Iraq.
