but where I am a threat to the safety of a public official

Sorry, but this was one case where an extra comma after “am” could have really come in handy.

I like that idea. much like when I read a marvelous pun, and then look back and see it was punaise (of course). but maybe it’s just me (the Va. Tech thing is still hanging over me) or a sign of the times, but I can’t just seem to say, oy, I shoulda known. just reading his ridiculous and amazingly ignorant statements (how could be possibly have gotten through law school?) is hard to take.

Kool-aid drinking seems to cause a disconnect in the reasoning abilities and the abilities to think clearly and perceive all facts and give them the proper weighting. Leads to promulgation of ludicrous statements, half-truths and discredited straw person arguments that are easily refuted by those abstaining from the kool-aid or that have received the antidote.

I just go into my private “ignore” mode with folks like LL. I sometimes miss and start to read what I consider to be gibberish but as soon as I realize who it is, I go into Emily Latella mode…

Palast is talking with Conyers and Iglesias and they apparently have something planned. The full article is here.

10 zen monkeys is a site that I heard about through boingboing.

Palast is hinting in this interview that he and Conyers have been talking and it would seem like they have something planned. Yeah, that would be nice. Maybe Monica has a great big surprise in store for her soon. One can only hope.

The Bush and Cheney families are dependents. Dependent on oil revenues.
