Good Morning Attaturk!
Morning Zed.
Well done. Bet longest two hours of Barack’s AND Bush’s life.
Could you do Laura with Michelle tomorrow? Though will be far less fun.
Is it true McCain drove off alone in a Toyota and Palin left Arizona in an 18 car entourage? Or was it an entourage for 18 people … (and all that fancy new underwear)!
Gotta go… but hey to Waccamaw if you visit today. Sorry to be so MIA…hope all is well.
Did President-Elect Obama have to go through an Andromeda Strain-like flash room where he was cleansed of all bacteria by way of having all his body hair burned off him from the chin down?
The missing undies were, I think, given out as souveniers and gratuities to exhausted staff.
mornin’ all.JoeScar sets a new record, pissing me off twice in less than 5 minutes.
First, he’s all jingo-pissy about Obama’s plan to close Gitmo and give these people a *trial*, fer chrissakes.
“Oh yeah, let’s treat these people better! Give ‘em habeas corpus rights (sneer) and…”
I quit listening there actually.
Right now he’s ranting on how horribly American soldiers are being treated when they get home. Huh? He’s shitty with the media, throwing newspapers around the desk, etc.
“Hey, I just tell the truth – if you don’t like it, go back to to bed.”
JoeScar, plumbing new depths, hopefully in his last few days before being tossed offa the teevee and banished to Hate Radio-land.
The missing undies were, I think, given out as souveniers and gratuities to exhausted staff.
“Gee, thanks, Governor. I’ll really treasure these used First Dood briefs. No – it’s ok, I’ll wash ‘em myself….”
If Barack gets to choose what rug goes in the Oval Office, I vote for the Bob Marley Flag image on the rug. Second choice, Che Guevara.
Shake things up a little, why don’tcha Mr. President-Elect?
Fresh from his f**k faux pas yesterday, Joe has to wave the flag, I take it. Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
Good morning, pups. It’s Bobo and Herbert today. Bobo, in “Darkness at Dusk,” (sounds like a bad soap opera, doesn’t it…) says the battle lines between the Traditionalists and the Reformers have already been drawn in the fight over the future of conservatism. Turns out it IS a bad soap opera. Bobo ponders and declares he thinks the Republican party will veer right for a while. How it can do that without vanishing up its own asshole defeats me. Mr. Herbert looks “Beyond the Fat Cats,” and reminds us that when the Champagne and caviar crowd is in trouble, taxpayer money can be found quickly. But the working poor and young are being clobbered in this downturn.

The coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready. This morning I’ve got a selection of bagels with cream cheese. The chives in my garden went a bit wild this summer, so there’s LOTS of chive cream cheese. 70 days… Have a great one today.
WASHINGTON – Republican U.S. Rep. Paul Broun said Monday he fears President-elect Obama will establish a Gestapo-like security force to impose a Marxist dictatorship.
“It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he’s the one who proposed this national security force,” Broun said of Obama in an interview Monday. “I’m just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may – may not, I hope not – but we may have a problem with that type of philosophy of radical socialism or Marxism.”
Broun cited a July speech by Obama that has circulated on the Internet in which the then-Democratic presidential candidate called for a civilian force to take some of the national security burden off the military.
“That’s exactly what Hitler did in Nazi Germany, and it’s exactly what the Soviet Union did,” Broun said. “When he’s proposing to have a national security force that’s answering to him, that is as strong as the U.S. military, he’s showing me signs of being Marxist.”
Shake things up a little, why don’tcha Mr. President-Elect?
I think he should have a control panel for pop-up holograms. Michelle, the girls, Oprah, Chris Rock, Yoda…
don’t these fool fuckers know that they should stop tryin’ to ride a dead horse *before* it starts ta stink?
and a belated happy birthday!
Laura designed it, huh? Bet it really tied the room together. Until the chinaman — excuse me, Asian American — pissed all over it.
This aggression will not stand.
v. 1:02 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Sloppy Joes!
Bush apologizes to Barack for having to use plastic forks, mumbles something about the “Silver getting polished”.
Be grateful you didn’t have to hear about the pediatrician who declared war on her staff because “evil incarnate” was elected as president. If you don’t want to look at the video, do click on the link to read the memo. That story was on Nov. 5. Then, like all good Republicans, she decided to leave the practice to spend more time with her family… That story was on Nov. 7, and can be found here. All I can say is good gawd… There’s probably nothing wrong with her that a long stay in a very soft room and LOTS of Thorazine won’t cure.
Why thanks. We’re headed for the mountains for a vets day hike.
I’m wondering if bush makes a pitch for the new president to donate the rug to the bush library
or I wonder if bush executive orders the rug to himself somehow
Pay attention to that screed on fascism. It is going to be the ground note for Limbaugh and company’s attack on the Obama administration, the same way it was for the Republiks when they went after FDR for the WPA and the CCC. Of course, this time around, they won’t be able to blame the Commie Jews the way they did in the 1930s.
I see by the papers that Mrs. Palin is sorting out her clothes looking for the silk underwear she bought for Tod during her game show appearance at Nieman.
Thanks for the grin this morning Attaturk.
Good morning all. Feeling a bit befuddled this morning. JoeSkank is on my tv. I was sure he was so fired for sayin fuck yesterday. Oh well….I’m sure Keith or Rachael would get away with it also. Yeah, right.
How it can do that without vanishing up its own asshole defeats me.
Good one, Marion. Thanks. (actually grinning from ear to ear now)
Oh, yeah….joe skank marveling at his newly discovered fact that “we don’t make anything any more” and how it is bad for the economy that manufacturing has disappeared. He really is not very bright.
Happy Vets Day my fellow Vet. And to all the firepup Vets out there.
2:00 President-elect departs through the kitchen door “for safety purposes.”
Yeah, I caught all that faux patriotism too.
And his scare tactics to get the young uns back into the fold.
“If you make $200 a pay, $170 will be going to taxes and fees soon.”
Ah yes, the rug story. I’m sure Obama was bored to tears with that one!
Newest entry into the “Dumbest Shit I’ve Ever Read” file.
From TPM (because I don’t click through to wingnut sites),
John Hinderacker supposedly said:
Now that is just simply ridiculous. Someone’s got to take his keyboard away before he types again.
I think Bobo can relax. A study of history, from the Scopes Monkey Trial, throught the 1964 Johnson landslide, through Watergate, as well as scientific studies have found that right wing nuts and cockroaches would survive even a nuclear holocaust.
This is, literally, unbelievable.
Sorry. I did not see your comment before I hit the button.
Ha! Beat you to it! (@25)
No worries!
It was stupid enough to warrant being repeated several times.
Talk about delusional…
they call their adversaries what they themselves are, they name bills oposite their goal.
they make me sick
In other good news you won’t read about in the liberal media,
the security situation in Pakistan is greatly improved.
Talk about revisionist history. Soon we’ll be hearing about how W. single-handedly won the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and ended the Great Depression.
Since reality obviously has no bearing whatsoever on these people.
Happy Veterans Day to those who have served.
You’ve got to remember this is the same Assrocket who proclaimed:
It must be very strange to be President Bush. A man of extraordinary vision and brilliance approaching to genius, he can’t get anyone to notice. He is like a great painter or musician who is ahead of his time, and who unveils one masterpiece after another to a reception that, when not bored, is hostile.

ot – Palin is on the Today Show (nbc) now in some markets
As a side note, PEOTUS Obama should eliminate ‘war on terror’ from official use by any and all govt. employees.
It’s only useful purpose was to create this culture of never ending war and fear, since a ‘war on terror’ can never be won.
Now we here that Bush is using blackmail to force Obama to support the Columbian free trade deal for Bush’s support to help Detroit. Give Republicons enough rope and they will hang themselves. If the U.S. auto industry crashes and burns there will be a revolution and no Republicon will be safe from the mobs.
No, it must be very strange to be Hinderacker.
How he finds his way around in this alternate universe he occupies is beyond me.
It got to be tough confusing ‘up’ with ‘down’, ‘dry’ with ‘wet’, and most dangerous of all, ’stop’ with ‘go’.
Hate to be his auto insurance agent.
oohhh…sounds like fun
and he must eliminate the fascist term “homeland”, every time i hear it my ancestors screech in pain
Morning Swim is up top…
Open thread up above and already zedded. By this prodigal poster, too. Good morning to the morning crew and especially to Made my post election day Marion. Mimosa’s for breakfast. An excuse for more champagne! Prolonged hangover, and thus a reason not to work and an occassion to relish.
Thanks Marion.
and now to get the work not done since E. day started.
Chimpy, in the oval office,
with a rabid dogwith rug strand!I vote for a large portrait of Che gracing one of the walls in the Oval Office.

No, no…THAT goes in the game room (i.e. dart board).
You forgot the first item on the Emperor’s agenda, search for his elevator shoes in the box with the codpieces.
