Woof arf arf arf! Phoenix here tonight, with only one thing to say (and it’s not “This piece needs more cowbell”): Have some more Fluffy White Couch Dogs!
Here they are, on Christmas Eve, looking ever so deceptively angelic, taking a break from hitting up their human mom for treats.
Relax, unwind, and tell us what’s on your mind. If you want to give the doggies a good brushing, the wire slicker brushes are kept in the mud room between the garage and the kitchen. (They love brushings almost as much as they love baths — at least the drying-off part — though not quite as much as they like treats.)
Oh, and if you really want some cowbell, it’s here.

More News to Amuse, Bemuse, Confuse, and Light Your Fuse: The governor and Republican legislators in Mississippi think they’re going to set up a Joint Legislative Committee on the Neutralization of Federal Laws, whose purpose is to “stand up for the Tenth Amendment” by blocking enforcement of federal laws like the ACA or any gun safety legislation that they deem “unconstitutional.” Apparently neither the Civil War nor the civil rights era taught these assholes the important lesson that THEY don’t get to decide what is or is not constitutional.

PW! Yes, cat person I may be, but those couch dogs are very very fluffy,and very very adorable. I’d love to brush them, I think.
Omg. this is what comes of neglecting the teaching of history.
Unbelievable.
MOAR FLUFFY WHITE COUCH DOGS PLEEZ!
Like that worked out so well the last time they tried it. I blame home schooling.
“Fat, drunk, stupid and hubristic is no way to go through life, son.”
Say what you will about nihilism, at least it is an ethos.
Woof!
Sorry I’m late — hope the doggie weren’t pestering you all for snackies.
They would love it if you did.
Careful, man! There’s a constitution here!
Shades of the infamous Sovereignty Commissions. What fricking bozos.
Cute dogs. They look almost as big as my feline purring throw pillows.
That’s some pure, unadulterated cowbell, PW…!
Things that make you go Hmmm…
Gen. Ham: US Failed to Train Mali Troops in Ethics
…Gen. Ham says that the US provided considerable training but focused “almost exclusively” on tactics and technical matters, without spending enough time teaching troops that they shouldn’t massacre civilians.
Rights groups have repeatedly reported that Malian troops have captured and summarily executed civilians in frontier cities, targeting ethnicities which are accused of being pro-rebel and capturing anyone without ID cards as “infiltrators.”
Mali’s Justice Minister had cited the US military’s own tortures and executions when presented with evidence last week, saying “no army in the world is perfect.“
Amazing how that didn’t make the front page of either the NYT or WaPo.
If they weren’t so barky, they’d be perfect. Penny’s the one in profile — she has the longer snout — whereas Petey is the one standing next to their human mom.
Pepe Escobar wrote a great one for AsiaTimes…! Zero Dark Mali…
“Barky.” Heh. That was my late lamented beagle’s only flaw, too.
There’s a good site – liberal -” Cottonmouth” that’s in Ms. and keeps up with all the stupid things they do and gives the gov and lege a good whack.
I’ve forgotten, PW, what breed of dog are Penny and Petey? My best guess is Samoyed, but I’m not so current with dog breeds.
Suz!
Happy happy!
To me they look like Spitz dogs.
I guess I’m just a cultural barbarian, but the cowbell didn’t speak to me.
They’re Eskimo, which is similar to the German “Spitz” breed.
Nothing deceptive about ‘em. Angels they certainly are.
Awww. Love the fluffy white couch dogs. Yeah Penny and Petey!!! Internet tube scritches and brushings to them.
