Why is not apologizing for an institution that was a world wide practice and ended in the U.S. over 200 years ago considered racist? FYI, the next step after issuing a formal apology (for something that none of us had anything to do with) is financial reparations. How much do you think we should pay? While we’re at it lets apologize to the Irish, Chinese, Jews and anyone else I left out.

o’reilly said something pretty racist yesterday on Jackson, saying he doesn’t understand why blacks consider Jackson one of their own when he bleached his skin color and has white kids. I don’t get the rethugs – they claim that they oppose policies that incentivize greater equality because those programs set african-americans apart and undermine assimilation into the American melting pot, and then they turn right around and endorse racial supremacy.

This Iowan ain’t as worried by Stevie (embarrassed, but that’s another story)as by the thousands of Iowans who agree with him or see him as harmless. There are days when “Kill’em all and let Dog sort’em out.” seems reasonable.

It’s a CSS faux pas. Not to be confu-sed with Faux Noos. Single-payer in Sweden is merely a strong indicator of rampant inbreeding. And to think, election outcomes turn on Iowa caucuses.

Formatting wonky with missing banner in Chrome, looks slick in IE8 (but I only use IE at home when absolutely necessary)

Years ago there was a group in the House of Reps called, “30-Something Democrats” where they would use the evenings to state their grievances for the public. One late evening when they were denigrating the Bush Regime, Steve King came into the chamber and walked up to the podium like he had a crowbar up his ass to interrupt their speeches, because King didn’t like what they were saying about his Fuhrer. I whipped off an email to the 30-Something Democrats stating in the re: field, “Steve King is an asshole” and then on the inside of the email I mentioned the crowbar and where it was placed. A few minutes later I could see Meeks, Debbie Wasser Schultz laughing. I hope they were in agreement with me! LOL I’m sure they were. ;-)

Back to King, one of the TPM commenters nailed it

It’s like listening to a schizophrenic describe the universe he lives in.
