I'm willing to bet that you've never been to aklan meeting. How do you expect the Dems to be comfortable with you?
We can get comfortable with him. After all, it's not like he's Italian or something.

I did read your post, Hank, and -- as I said -- he should be fine despite his status as a non-Klan member.

I had two choices: put a shitload of people on ignore or stop posting / reading politics. My ignore list hasn't changed.

A nickel to anyone who recognizes the Re line.

2. I was going to put:
  • Ironhead, Penske, SAM, balt, Sidd, bilmore, Gattigap and Wonk

on ignore. Then I realized that I would miss all of them on FB if I did, so I followed your lead.

I especially like seeing how Taxwonk restates peoples jokes when he post his responses two days later. I just didn't want to give that up.

Unlike the masses, I thank NFH regularly for bringing me similar information.

The fact that those vapid little turds are still on TV at all is the moral equivalent of war against our children. I will not sit idly by while they rot more brains. A Classic Warner Bros. (not that new shit) coalition of the willing has struck the first blow for freedom.

Penske lied and told me that you had me on ignore. Now that I know you don't I'll start posting here again.

More proof soccer is a girly game.
  • Women know more than men about soccer

    - If you don't understand soccer's offside rule, don't ask a man -- find a woman.

    Women are top of the table when it comes to knowledge about the beautiful game, relegating their menfolk to second spot, according to a survey released on Wednesday.

    Research found that 59 percent of women could correctly identify the offside law -- one of the game's hardest to comprehend -- as opposed to just 55 percent of men.

    Also 65 percent of women correctly used the title assistant referee, while 40 percent of men wrongly referred to the official as a "linesman".

Roe v. Wade - Locked in.

There was some lawyer on Charlie Rose last night whose sole job is cases before the Supreme Court. He also teaches at Harvard and Stanford. Anyone see this? He said he did not think Roberts was as conservative as Rehnquist. He also did not think he would overturn Roe v. Wade.

I don't think Miers is going to vote to overturn it either. That is still just two votes to overturn it.
Well, Roe is poorly written, and could be overturned, but the Right has stupidly made Roe a referendum on whether there's a right to privacy in the Constitution. They should stress the States Rights side of the anti-Roe argument, and argue that there is a right to privacy, but that abortion is not a privacy issue - that it is a public policy issue which states should have the right to regulate. By arguing against a right to privacy, the Right has made overturning Roe harder. NOBODY wants to be seen as the judge or party which hastened a decision taking away our right to privacy.

BTW, I was at a dinner a few days back where a constitutional scholar stated matter-of-factly "There is a right to privacy in the Constitution." He said it as though it wasn't even up for debate.

We don't really want that. We'd lose all of those incredibly-motivated prolifers who make it possible for us to get Republicans into office so that we can pursue our dream of smaller and cheaper government.

Yeah, THAT'S working out well . . .
