"Only if the Executive branch approves it (get it from Mukasey in writing and notarized). Then it is legal. Otherwise, it is off to a federal penitentiary for you my boy."

No sweat. Under current law, all I gotta do is get President Che' to declare him to be an unlawful enemy combatant and he's toast.

In the meantime, it's off to bed for me, Mom.

"Several states, however, have left their criminal statutes on the books and still define gay sex as a crime (there are some that also define all forms of non-missionary-position sex, including between married couples, as a crime)."

Even though you recently convinced me of the wrongness of my desire to put O'Hanlon at the Wall, I find that I am once again at risk of being on my way to the slammer, this time to one of the State Penitentiaries mentioned above. My freedom is surely at risk and my whipper will be forbidden from snapping.

Oh, Lordy.....send in the gnomes!

Will you please visit me on alternate Thursdays?

Please bring brownies.

.......

Oh! Disclaimer for The Black Buddha - I am a caucasian male who was last known to be heterosexual (not that it makes much of a difference at my age).

"Do you???"

-- GThrasher

More than you will ever realize.

"Wow from zero to retard in under a hundred posts

That's a new record."

Yeah. If you hadn't stopped sleeping in on Thursdays, we could have gone another couple of hundred posts.

Maybe you and the Black Buddha should hook up. It's not often we get to see a horse's ass with lightning bolts flying out of it. Maybe you two could generate some more "judicial activism".

When is the last time your brainwaves weren't flat?

"Surely there is something better? There's got to be. Doesn't there?"

Let's emulate Italy.

After all, when they feel their system of government isn't working, they change it.

Hell, Italy has been known to change governments more often than Mr. Megawatt changes his underwear so there must be something good about Haste in Government.

Our system and laws, so I was told a long time ago, are designed to be changed only after careful and deliberate consideration. Doing otherwise gives us laws like the "Patriot Act".

Do we really want more of that type of lawmaking?

"I want a think tank job. Is a highschool deploma required?"

In context, your spelling of the word diploma was a masterstroke. Supreme snark.

You should immediately apply for O'Hanlon's job. Feel free to use Mr. Megawatt as a reference.

"Given that Jebbie has just stated that he's hetero, you've managed to make him look very good in the eyes of all the women hereabouts."

Dawlin, you have just made this old man's day!!

Move over, Mona!

"Researchers have witnessed a wild Antarctic fur seal attempting sex with a king penguin -- the first documented case of a pinniped trying to mate with an animal that is not only a different species but also a different class of vertebrates."

Clearly, those reseachers never witnessed Mr. Megawatt doing the camel with two backs with The Black Buddha.

If and when they do, perhaps they'll be able to answer the question regarding which of the two has a brain larger than a walnut.

Please let us know when you guys will be switching to those pumps that were the rage here a couple of weeks ago.

I'm not sure my heart could handle the stress.

"with regard to the lives of whites and Blacks in America that is a discussion for another day.."

-- GThrasher

Well, hell, man. Had you said that earlier today, we would all have been spared your wheeze for the entire day.

Let's try to be more punctual in the future, shall we?

May I suggest that you choose for "another day" a day the Internets are down for maintenance?

"We've never really been able to figure him out. He's just a very angry contrarian with some political identity issues."

Horseshit!

He's merely a fucking troll who gets his rocks off diverting threads from the original subject to whatever alleged "grievance" he chooses to whine about.

"Jebbie is the new forum arbiter

I never wanted that job anyway but I can think of worse things to be biting."

Way cool!!

Biting orbs is fine with me as long as they're nice orbs.

Does this new position of mine require Congressional confirmation and do I get a neat delete button to go with my American flag pin?

Hey! Wait just a minute. What's an arb?

What's an arb?

"I'm startin' a pool,..."

I don't have the foggiest idea what the topic will be but I can guarantee that he won't preface it by declaring that he is a gay activist.

Oh...BTW, I am glad you reminded me of the other contest we have going.....Today's The Day!

Remember, Boys and Girls (and others), if no one mentions He Who Shall Not Be Named during the current 24-hour period, Pedinska, I and SWMBO, will perform the Hully Gully - in the buff (merkens allowed) - for your viewing enjoyment.

Milk and Rhubarb Pie will follow.

Ann Arbor? Great googley moogley, Woman. The only thing good to come out of Ann Arbor is Juan Cole and The Arbors (a singing group which is before your time).

I do believe I shall stick to biting orbs. You volunteering? I mean, it's not like I'm on a diet or anything.

"who wants to carry Ms. Pedinska piggy back all day?"

Do we get a chance to limber up first?

"5-foot, one-half inch Lady wearing 6-inch pumps."

Bebop-O, do I still have enough time to order a pizza?
