When LWM lechers....

Everybody goes to sleep? heh.

Or ~ reaches for cell-phones?

@ 4:26, how can one not like LWM?

@ 4:31, DCLaw1, promises to place,

Pink TP in each and all government agencies.

@ 4:35, Hay Miss P? If Ricks left-ring gets too tight,

and if you don't like pinches ~ there is ____! O - heh.

Pedinska, Please remember YKW? I'll put pink TP in the slab-wood out-house for you? okay?

I'm gonna have to read Today's comments Tomorrow when I am wearing my Sunday sweatpants?

I love when people are so tired that anyone-anywhere will shed their clothes, make-up, and sleep together, as one.... No grudges.

O, sleep in peace... and do gentle soft pinches @ each other, and be forgetful, and just before night-time sleep settles inn... enjoy a few innocent kisses. huh. okay.

P.S. bring a extra pair of bunny slippers?

Me no have any. "The vast drama of ourselves,

in a eye blink the curtain is up, and the stage ablaze ~ we see ourself..."

`

or.... (something like that) by Herman Wouk.... or we remain deluded?

apologies to H. W. and YKW? Whoever.

And good night, and tuck someone in?

Sleep in peace. DCLaw1, do you have a nail file?

Should I place the nail clippings in a stolen Laundromat? Sock?

I'll call the local PA fbi to check if there are any holes in the darn (personal) socks.

"I hope that this can invite you to some introspection."

Believe me, we do a lot of that here in these comment threads.

We only wish the members of the beltway press would do the same.

And that was precisely the point of this post by Glenn's (and many others as well), not to praise our press, but to point out their hypocrisies.

@ Anonymust

I'm less concerned with which one of them succeeds than I am with the one I want to fail, McCain. I'm pretty certain that's going to happen but I've been wrong before.

Bush Makes Me Ill

Watching his condescension with the Irish reporter while he spouts the most idiotic non sequiturs was sickening. What has happened to our country of breathtaking ideas, intellect and promise that we ended up with this guy as president?

DCLaw1 and Pedinska

If offered one, who would accept another person's left testicle? Is there a reason the left is given greater importance than the right?

Well, it does seem that after giving the left one, you still have one left.

And that's right.

No alcohol was involved in writing this comment.

I know, LWM, and I agree with you,

but let me be more explicit. I don't think my personal "constitution" could bear another GOP maladministration, and certainly not one headed up by McCain.

And that doesn't even begin to say what I think the results would be domestically or around the world.

Obama? Clinton? Clinton? Obama? I'll vote for either one of them. And gladly, too.

OT, but... now Bill Clinton is reportedly hinting at how unbeatable they would be on a combined ticket. http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/03/bill-clinton-ca.html

I had my own insight about such a ticket the other day. Forget about just uniting the Democrats... Imagine what a nightmare ticket that would be for the Republicans! They wouldn't be able to campaign effectively without fully revealing their complete and unadulterated bigotry. Rove has already been telling the Republicans to quit Husseining Obama.

Anonymust.

If it was not so late... I'd ride over to your PA Place with a Harley.

We could crash through white oak wood picket, a

fence, and later we'd run a 24-hour mile in bare feet?

We could take some Milky Ways and run in Kid Snickers.

The football helmets today have front-guards. No worry.

Well, it does seem that after giving the left one, you still have one left.

And that's right.

Is that, like, a koan?

With or without the Al-qohol, it seems rather profound.

GC...

There's a Harley distributorship just down the pike aways... and believe it or not, but in my younger days, I had a t-shirt decorated with "Harley Mama." No reason. It was gift that was meant to be a joke. Cute, though.

And we have picket fences enough in the neighborhood, as well as an old growth white oak right outside of the house.

Are you sure you're not channeling someone? Spooky~ ...anyway, I would need a helmet. ;~)

@Jim White LOLOL

My grandsons love to talk about nuts, usually its not about the kind you eat. Maybe you were inspired by your horses, wife and daughters or your friends on Salon. Who needs alcohol when you have so many that love you.

Saturday, March 8, 2008 06:35 PM

P.S. GC...

I'm hoping that when you know what is better... this funny patch on my arm will go away. Sometimes I get things that I think really belong to other people, just not as intensely.

Benen on Crooks and Liars had something about Hillary hinting at it as well.

Hillary Clinton gets asked about the possibility of a ticket with Barack Obama with some regularity, and has, for many months now, ably dodged the questions. On Wednesday, she raised eyebrows, however, by straying from the script — asked on CBS about running with Obama, Clinton said, “That may be where this is headed, but of course we have to decide who is on the top of ticket. I think that the people of Ohio very clearly said that it should be me.”

Not once. But twice.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday again raised the possibility that she might run with rival Sen. Barack Obama on the same Democratic presidential ticket.

Speaking to voters in Mississippi, where Sen. Barack Obama is expected to do well in next week’s primary, Clinton said, “I’ve had people say, ‘Well I wish I could vote for both of you. Well, that might be possible some day. But first I need your vote on Tuesday.”

It is the second time this week that she has hinted at a joint ticket with the Illinois senator; he has not ruled it out but says it is premature to be having those discussions.

You’ll notice, of course, that Wednesday’s comment came in response to a specific question. This morning’s comment, if the AP report is accurate, was unprompted — meaning Clinton specifically wanted to raise this point for emphasis.
