Slightly OT: Still waiting for Rush to claim the Sikh temple shooter was actually a liberal looking to pin the blame on conservatives who, once again -- like all flag-waving, bible-thumping, gun-toting, freedom-loving, Fox-watching Americans -- are the real victims of this tragedy.

you notice that too. it's like the skip rehearsal, skip reading the script, and can't remember the line long enough to look away from the card. they may as well move it to radio.

I hate to lump groups of people together but I'll risk being called a bigot to point out that Mitt the Bishop is living up to my expectations that come from past dealings with other Mormons. Some people will use God to justify all kinds of sleaziness.

At this point if Obama ordered Mexican food for dinner, Mitt would accuse him of being anti-American.

Ok, I think understand their reasoning, stupid as it is. I teach, and when we have a student with learning disabilities, we have a report which outlines the things we can do to make that student better able to learn. One day I was called into a meeting with parents by a bright red principal, she was so upset, as the parents were giving her the gears about how unfair I was to their little darling. I went in and explained to them how I broke down assignments into small steps, etc, etc, all according to the kid's IEP, but then I made the cardinal error of saying that this was standard in all my assignments for the whole class, not just him. Well!! I had to have special, extra things for him,above and beyond what I was doing for the others, even if half of them had IEPs too. In other words, he was SO special, that if the others got the same, he deserved more. Either that or take away those accommodations for the others, to preserve his "advantage". So, you see, by wanting everyone to be able to vote early, Obama is taking away a privilege given to the military, and so they no longer are "special" At least, that's the only way the argument makes sense. Or maybe Rmoney is just stupid.

Oh, that can't be true. If it were true they would have put hurdles in the way of black people voting in Florida. And they would have demanded voter ID laws. And they would throw a fit every time a polling station in a city (say, Durham NC) stayed open late to compensate for malfunctioning equipment. See?

So Mitshit has adopted the same strategy as GWB2 in the 2000 elections. Apparently this goat fucker believes no one remembers how a court decided an election because of the numbnuts in Florida.

I hope Harry Reid is taking notes...

You'd think dead people would be way past lying to advance a political cause.

It's simple to explain later. Mitt was taken out of context taking Brietbart out of context in an out of context Facebook statement. So there, haters.
