I want to see the weird sons scrunching up their sorrow filled faces much like the famous Santorum-daughter picture.

How does "my hood-adjacent home with the underwater mortgage, with just enough ghey and white neighbors to maintain what little property value is left" sound? Not quite the same, I guess.

And like Helga's, they deliver exactly what their customers <i>do</i> expect.

Losing a chunk of audio in the middle of a digital file takes a bit more than an awkward "stretch".

But no orgasm, so, no fun at all.

It's cheaper this way.

Plus, they still get viewer-eyeballs and a seat in the White House Press Room, no matter how traitorious they behave...

What, an <a href="http:\/\/www.politico.com\/blogs\/charlie-mahtesian\/2012\/09\/romneys-massachusetts-beatdown-135916.html" target="_blank">18 to 22 point gap</a> is unusual ?

He's well-paid for overriding any last trace of integrity. Maybe you're just jealous.

Boy, do I agree with you about that. Probably the thing that most needs to be unavailable is the giant clips. Of course, those are pretty easy to make, so I suppose there's no point.

Actually, not 100% accurate.

Fully-auto weapons were tightly regulated and heavily (at that time) taxed in 1934 (the tax never went up from $200), but still legal to own if you jumped through all the hoops until 1986. Fully auto guns manufactured prior to 1986 are <em>still</em> legal to own, but obviously are in limited supply and thus prohibitively expensive for most people, and you still have to submit to the ATF for fingerprinting and background checks and get your CLEO's signature, and pay that $200 transfer tax.

At least, that's the status of Federal law. States may enact tighter regulations, although from the look of <a href="" target="_blank">wikipedia</a>, most have not.

Kinda like that Rose Garden speech on 9/12?

Mine too, if made unclearly. The distinction between assault rifles and automatic rifles is almost more about styling than safety. Nonetheless some, may including Gore, claim he lost Tennessee and thus the 2000 election because of the ban.

Still adorable: how Fox keeps using the word "News."

Who needs transcripts when Rush and Sean can tell them what they said?

Isn't it telling the way Romney always refers to Massachusetts as "<i>my</i> state" the same way he might say "my New Hampshire beachfront mansion" or "my La Jolla beachfront home with the proposed car elevator" or "my Deer Valley Utah ski lodge" or "my $100 million IRA"?

4 minute gap. $4 trillion tax cut gap. Death by a thousand nitpicks.
