		<description>&lt;p&gt;Um, how are we supposed to be able to *tell* when Deborah Howell is “on vacation”? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There’s a difference between that and the quality of her normal output?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-807754&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;punaise @ 155&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;some day we’ll have to put together an East Bay, SF (yo, TSF!), Sacramento, Santa Cruz Mtn. (hint hint Suzanne), Carmel (hi npb!), etc. get-together&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For that I’d get a cheap JetBlue ticket to Oakland.  Make sure I’m on the invite list!!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;More &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/07/AR2007070700715.html&quot;&gt;silliness &lt;/a&gt;. . . &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;HOLLYWOOD, Fla. — Not yet a 2008 candidate, Fred Thompson energized young Republicans with a speech Saturday that was heavy on rhetoric and short on policy pronouncements. He branded Democrats as “the party of despair.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chants of “Fred” and “Run, Fred, Run,” greeted the actor and former GOP senator from Tennessee from many among the 350 people at the Young Republicans National Convention. The crowd interrupted his nine-minute speech with wild applause and mobbed him when he left.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It makes me feel like the waters are pretty warm,” Thompson said afterward. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Young Republicans, you say? A nine-minute speech, you say? I think the yellow cloudiness in the waters might explain the warmth, Fred.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Or the fires of hell…:-)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hollywood…Florida…you say?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Frederick of Hollywood (Florida)…he’s the real thing!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-807913&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;wigwam @ 303&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;OT:  Earlier there were discussions about where the neocons really come from.  IMHO, they are anti-communist intellectuals who spent so much time studying their enemy that they have begun to resemble him.  Now, anything that advances their one-party rule is good and anything that hinders it is evil.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://antiwar.com/justin/?articleid=11236&quot;&gt;http://antiwar.com/justin/?articleid=11236&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And, though neocons are the extreme, this disease has infected the entire Republican party for the past forty years.  Every Republican president since Eisenhower has been involved in crimes against the Constitution and/or their coverup via presidential pardons.  Republicans do not believe in bringing their own to justice, even when those sworn to defend the constitution attack it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think you are right. Eisenhower was the last Republican President. He didn’t like the Warren court or Brown v Board but when Faubus defied the Federal Court, Eisenhower sent the 82nd to Little Rock and they stayed for a year. All Republicans since then have been part of an evolving criminal  enterprise that calls it self The republican Party.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;More from Fred:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;“I’d just say the flies get bigger in the summertime. I guess the flies are buzzing,” said Thompson, who is considering running for president as a social conservative.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In my rural upbringing, I learned where it is that flies tend to buzz . . . usually somewhere around the droppings from the southbound end of a northbound critter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m just sayin’.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;‘Course, Fred bein’ such a down-home kind of guy, I’m sure he already knew that.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I highly recommend doing it while I’m in Rancho Cordova from this Wed, July 11 - Sat morning July 21.  I’d love to meet y’all.  After my experience meeting and playing with the Central Texas firepups today, I say meet them all!  I should be free most evenings.  And will probably have longish lunch breaks.  I’d love to come if it’s not too far a drive. Mary McCurnin in Rancho Cordova has my cell phone.  We’re in the process of planning to get together for a hike.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;  I’ll be in Utah then (Park City…any fire pups around there?).  Do you come out to N. Cal often?  You’re always welcome for a visit here in Santa Rosa.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I might be there in November.  And if not Santa Rosa in November, it’ll be Rancho Cordova again.  I should know probably sometime in August.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Whenever I think of Young Republicans it reminds of a quote Hunter Thompson made about the music business, but if you remove music business and replace it with Young Republican Convention it applies as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strike&gt;music business&lt;/strike&gt; Young Republicans Convention is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There’s also a negative side. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Peterr- well, then, you def. need to read another Howie post.  It is worth it for the picture alone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://downwithtyranny.blogspot.com/2007/07/young-republicans-learning-how-to-be.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bare-assed Young Republican swilling beer.  The bare-assed buns are really quite obvious.  And the beer is dripping down his legs.  Of course, the crowd loves it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;God forbid that darkblack ever gets to a Young Republicans gathering. The reality of the experience would be almost too much: “But . . . But . . . But how could I top that?”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Way too much material congregated in one spot!!!  LOL!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
