Motherless Sons of Bitches...

Slamming my head into my desk just isn't going to cut it for this one....

Up is Down, Black is White.

I don't read anything Peggy Noonan writes anymore, as a sort of rule, in much the same way that I don't date High School girls anymore.  I'm not in High School, and frankly, who wants the drama?  Yet despite the fact that she's on the wrong side of pretty much every issue I could think of, her outsider perspective (read: Not from the same goddamn planet) gives her a unique position from which to observe and explicate the situation that the Democratic party is in right now.  

In short:  Be afraid.  Be very afraid.  Noonan is making sense, Hillary is a Republican, and McCain is Bush.  Topsy turvy world, indeed.

Friedman gets it in one.

I really didn't like this guys' last book.  Or the one before that.  Maybe it's the way he writes or maybe it's the way he thinks everything should be explained through a not-as-clever-as-he-thinks-it-is little story or anecdote.  In either case, the guy does hit the truth nine times out of ten (albeit sometimes with a nerf-bat and sometimes with a small East African marsupial) and his opinion in the NYT today is a slam dunk.  Our energy policy isn't failing because it's bad, it's failing because it doesn't EXIST and no one elected to build one has done anything about it, besides make the problem worse.   Oh, and Hillary and John McCain wouldn't know an energy policy if it tried to make out with them.

Newsflash

Karl Rove has some advice for Obama.  

In other news, Hitler returns from the grave to give Bush some pointers.

Today's Truthiness:

Rush Limbaugh is a douchebag.  

Come again?

I can't believe I'm just seeing this now.  Where was this all day?  

Why don't the MSM trolls at least sniff this one up!?  If Sessions gets re-elected I think we ought to set fire to Alabama.  

Seriously. 

Christianity is ruining Christmas...

     So this is one heck of a bill.  Apparently there was concern over whether the Christians in this country were being appropriately recognized.  As if electing their finger puppet into office--twice--weren't enough.
