We are the secret agents we’ve been waiting for!
2009 September 8
The waitress told him to “keep pushing.” heh. Question: Does politics, like alcohol, amplify or distort your personality?
Oh, you want more crazy? Coming right up! And to think we always figured GW was the problem. Doesn’t look like he had much of a chance in that household. Michelle is “doing great” too! OMG….well hey, I am glad the politicians are happy. Oh don’t forget, Laura says you can’t call Obama a socialist.
What’s that? Not enough crazy yet? What are you, sick or something? How about passing a government healthcare bill, in the face of clear majority opposition? “Hurry, before they throw us out!”
Our political class is sick. They are the ones who need a “death panel”, not us.

Exactly, the nuts are in charge of the nuthouse. We can sometimes be out own worst enemy. Repubicans need to stop trying to help “the one”.

I’m over here like Apu in the Seinfeld episode. Paki food by the ton, and no one wants any.
“Thanks for stopping by! May your food be with you always!”

A lot of Republicans adore Laura Bush: attractive woman, lots of class, but were she not married to a Republican politician, she would be a liberal Democrat.

That’s very perceptive, bc.

RWY, if I’m ever on “Who want to be a Millionaire?” I’m calling you for the questions I can’t answer on pop culture!
[6]
bc, you may be right about Laura Bush, but I’ve noticed it is a trait of all the Bushes, to not diss an Ex-President or his family.
Father Bush kept his mouth sealed even though the dims trashed his son. He also never said anything about Clinton, even though he was super angry at him right after the election in ‘92.
The dims don’t have this same trait. But, the republicans seem to show undeserved retraint when it comes to comments about the people replacing them in office.

My brain is all yours for 20%. Really that’s a bad deal for you.

Jan, the constitution and liberty is more important than decorum. The Bushes are way off, here.
Note they have little problem hitting the right. We get no such deference.
I think the tendency is political, and not etiquette, at all.

Remember the kid that won, with his million dollar question being “What was the bug that coined the term “bug” in computer-speak?”…
I got all his questions right, without any calls or lookups. I’d have won his prize.
[11]
They’re decent people with generations of security and family behind them; these factors have combined to insulate them from comprehending evil. While understanding integrity at a personal level, there is a lack of discernment and moral clarity.
[12]
I’ll buy that for $20.
[13]
I missed that show.
We figure as a family we can answer any question on “Jeopardy.”
[14]
heh. I’m less good at Jeopardy. There are a few categories I’d ace, but I don’t think I could win an episode without some real study.
[15]
Well, we would need all of us to win a show, unless the categories fell our way.
Someone said (one of the commenters here) the litmus test for a conservative is their reaction to Sarah Palin.
I’d like to say that IMO, the litmus test for a Republican wife is whether she is pro-life or pro-abortion. That tells you at heart what her politics would trend if she weren’t in the public eye.
[16]
Another $20. My wallet!
