    This is just a bad idea, mixing up dancing and fighting.

    It's like a fish-bicycle.

    Or a sex-disease.

    A Republican with a conscience.

    The two just don't go together.

     

    Simpler? Do the Twist... and carry an Uzi.

    I'm hating you just a little bit right now. I know I live in the land of beaches, what with 14,000 plus islands and all. But I love Bahia. And I am supremely jealous. Supremely.

    Krugman's a must read today.  Unfortunately I think he's right.

    I agree...

    It's really too bad that when people are pissed they vote in a manner that defies logic.

    "Things suck. We didn't get the change we wanted. So we're going to vote for people who are even MORE determined not to give us the change we want."

    Only in America...

    Speaker of the House Boehner...  Urp! Oh, sorry, my breakfast just came up.
