Barb, I don't really believe in God, but I will pray for your daughter and granddaughter-to-be, just in case it might do some good. My very best wishes for a happy outcome on all fronts.

Cranbook's playground was the hedge fund trading room at Lehman Brothers. Shoving was encouraged, but no running!

From theconservativereview.com: <i>There may never be direct evidence of any direct ties between The Washington Post and the Obama campaign. It strains credulity, however, for anyone to claim that today’s Post story painting presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney as a gay bashing bully the day after President Obama announced his support for gay marriage is any sort of coincidence.</i>

Of course, it's all a giant left-wing conspiracy!

Seriously...these fuckers are bringing up stuff from when Barry was in elementary school?

They really are desperate, aren't they?

Oh sure...Barry might have been mean to a girl 30 years ago. However, has Glen Beck yet denied he raped and killed that girl in the 80s?

Nope - Bandit is too sweet to eat. The only canine food for me are hot dogs.

Kids are just mean which is why they should be sedated and kept at home until they're old enough to die in the military or go to work in the fields.

Speaking of bullies: <i>The Republican-led House has agreed to replace deep budget cuts scheduled to hit the Pentagon in January with a series of reductions in funding for food stamps, Medicaid and regulation of the financial sector. The House approved the package that would save $242.8 billion over 10 years on a party-line 218 to 199 vote. No Democrats supported the package; sixteen Republicans opposed it.</i>

I force myself to look at these sites to rid myself of the idea that I can look forward to a peaceful retirement in this country instead of trying to move to Europe.

I can't afford to either retire OR move to Europe but it's these fantasies and the comradeship from Wonkette that allows me to get up in the morning.

We have a golden retriever (well, he's mostly golden - got a little German shepard, too) and he tips the beam at something over 70 lbs. That's a lot of dog.

Actually I have 3 inside cats and 2 outside cats.
