Why is it that female conservative "pundits" (a meaningless word), anchors and commentators seem to be bottle blonds? It seems to be the rule rather than the exception (Snowbilly and Malkin being the exceptions). Is it a uniform or just the ideal conservative woman to conservative men is blond, jugs and apple pie? From her twitter pic bein' sexy AND gun totin' is of utmost importance.

Perhaps it's in the peroxide itself, the larger the percentage of peroxide, the more conservative.

This prodigious display of antihistorical density occurred right before my US Civil War history class, where we discussed what actually happened when Big Government debt-financed troops overran slave plantations in Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and cetera.

The former slaves signed up in droves, to take up arms and fight for their shiny new freedom. So many of them that a lot of the white officers weren't comfortable with the idea of quite so many black men being armed all at once, but were pretty happy to discover they had a fighting spirit that wouldn't quit.

That is the only Cocteau Twins song for which I understand the words. Quote from a now-forgotten book "When I started to understand the words of a Cocteau Twins song, I knew I was high".

I mean, those chains were the worst. They never got updated.

Also, Christmas carols before Thanksgiving. Why do we have to listen to The Little Drummer Boy one millisecond before absolutely necessary? Having carols forced upon us in malls and groceries is just like slavery of the ears.
