Lo Pan? Which Lo Pan? The little old basket case on wheels or the ten foot tall roadblock?

Al Qaeda and the KKK now endorse John McCain. Um, can Lieberman now kindly shut the fuck up about Hamas? Deputy Dawg. I know what Lieberman is trying to do, but it seems not to be working very well. One thing I don't understand, HOWEVAH, is why there is such a perception that the older Jews won't back Obama. If I recall, historically Jews were at the forefront of the Civil Rights movement in the 50's and 60's. Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner were true heroes who gave their lives for that cause, which they did not have to be a part of. Fuck Farakhan, Jeremiah Wright, and Jesse Jackson, they are idiots. My question is, how did the perceived animosity between the two groups (Jews and Blacks) happen?

May the wings of liberty never lose a feather.

As your ol' buddy Jack Burton always says, this broad is crazy. This broad is our presumptive vice presidential pick for the side of the elephants. But thank the stars, she resembles that Tina Fey woman who I always see in those Amex commercials. For a commercial person, she is pretty funny. Also, I think she is saving the democracy in this here good ol' US of A. I spoke to a friend on the Friday morning after the VP debate and we started the conversation about it, of course. He is a Serious Democrat, I am a dirty fucking hippie. I readily agreed with him that she looked better than I thought she would be, albeit reading straight from her cue cards and never answering any questions that were presented to her. But I guess that is what the soft bigotry of low expectations give us. So last night for the first time in like, forever, I turned on SNL right at the start. Fey was perfect. "I've always loved the Jews and Cuban food", had me rolling on the floor and laughing my ass off. Here is an interesting article that speaks to the phenomenon that illustrates the strangeness of politicians swearing allegiance to a country other than our own. As Greenwald says, I can't imagine any other country that would get so much play in our discourse, without any debate allowed for differing viewpoints other than Likudnik positions. Because otherwise you are an anti-Semite, of course. What a great way to head off any sort of meaningful dialogue. But Florida is an important state, I guess. And you know that Obama guy is just a Muslim anyway and will bring about the total destruction of our country and I bet he puts a mosque on the South lawn.
