I watched Maher last night. Hitchens is an ass. He ruined the show.

Hitchens showed how little class he truly posesses. He’s a giant, scotch-soaked turd that can talk with a poncey British voice. That snide remark about Elvis Costello shows how loathesome he really is.

Ever notice how googley-eyed Hitchens gets when he tells the big lies about Iraq? You can almost hear his brain switch from gray matter to white matter. I’d love to play poker with that wet-brain egotist.

(P.S. I wasn’t being “sweet” — “calculating as hell,” more like).

Posting this from the floor of the Michigan Democratic Party Convention, FirePups, sending you a shout-out. I had the incredible privilege to chat with emptywheel today; she totally rocks!! We have a great group of folks here, most of whom post or read MichiganLiberal.com regularly, attending or panelists on the first Bloggers’ Caucus. You can catch some of the speeches at that site now; Matt of MichLib is posting from the “blog pen on the fly.

Need to head down to the 4th Congressional District Caucus in a couple minutes, just thought I’d stick my head in and see how things were going here at the Lake. Check in again later this evening, FirePups!

Here’s the goopers take on Christopher Hitchens’ performance on Real Time w/ Bill Maher last night.

U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris has stunned Democrats and some in her own Republican Party by saying that the separation of church and state is “a lie” and that God never intended the country to be a “nation of secular laws”.

Harris first came to national attention as Florida’s Secretary of State when she certified George W. Bush as the winner in the state over Al Gore in 2000. She then capitalized on the notoriety to become a member of the U.S. House of Representatives and is now in a primary battle for the GOP nomination to run for the Senate.

She made her remarks on religion and the Constitution in an interview this week with the Florida Baptist Witness, a weekly publication put out by the Florida Baptist State Convention.

Harris told the Witness that not electing Christians to office would allow Congress to “legislate sin,” and that “everything I do” is a product of her religious faith.

She went on to call same-sex marriage one example of sin. Harris voted in favor of a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage. The measure failed to get enough votes in Congress to advance.

Harris told the publication that “we have to have the faithful in government” because it’s ” God’s will”.

Hi everybody, just fitzin by to see what everybody’s up to.

Hey, Christy said fuck! [swoon]

I am on day four of freedom from smoking cigarettes!

Sharkbabe, way to go!!! You’ll be surprised at how many handy little paperclip holders you have now, and the nifty pull-out mint dispenser under your car radio.

Good on you!

I always enjoy these tours of left blogtopia (yes, Skippy coined that phrase!). No one has time to visit them all – nice to have a weekly “Greatest Hits album.” Thanks of the smiles and guffaws.

I concur. Christy you do a great ‘greatest hits’ I would love it to be a regular after ‘pull up a chair’.

I am so glad to see egregious, 5-7-5 not withstanding.
