    "God's Little Turnips"

    That hurt. (my sides).

    Maybe Stalin was doing the loaves and fishes trick with the turnip, ala "The Seromon at the Kremlin"?

    Slackie - That's the heartbreak of the whole enterprise -- the groundwork has been laid by the GOP for so long, their partisanship and demagoguery spread so thick and wide, that it poisons the whole process, divides the country against itself, so that even if Obama manages a landslide, the "war" won't be over, the "fight" will continue unabated. Ignorance is the only alternative, renewable energy source the GOP truly embraces.

    Freakin' beautifully put.
