It's an ok shot.

He didn't build that.

Republicans are actually comparing contraception coverage to Pearl Harbor and 9/11. Sen. Inouye didn't appreciate the comparisons.

More than 1 idiot did so?

Kelly and Huelskamp

One of the primaries in Tennessee has become a contest over who wants to hate the mosque/Islam more.

Harry Reid has some massive balls. Either he is going to go down in flames, or he'll single handedly sink the entire Romney campaign.

Romney seems to be backed into a corner here. Short of releasing his returns, any response just looks silly.

I was going to vote 3rd party, but Harry Reid may have convinced me to vote for Romney.

I didn’t realize Harry Reid was one of the candidates.

Saw an interesting combination of bumper stickers yesterday:

 

Abortion stops a beating heart

Sometimes war IS the answer!

Wherever it was originally posted I don't recall but here's seemingly the real story, on the record. Jesse Jackson' Jr's wife has come forward with a detailed description of the Congressman's battle with depression, including a collapse in early June and a visit to the Mayo clinic.

Sticking this here because of the mention of the budget cuts.

 

Mosque in Joplin, MO burns to the ground. 2nd fire there in a month. Previous one was on July 4 and deemed arson.

I'm getting a serious case of Romney blather fatigue

What's giving me fatigue is Balta's f***ing avatar.

I hate election years in general and while 2012 isn't as bad as I thought it'd be for someone who's active on social networking it seems like there's quite a bit of meaningless bulls***. I do remember actually talking about public policy in 2008 even if some of it was about stuff that was never really going to happen (cap and trade, high speed rail, etc.) but what are we talking about now... basically nothing.

 

But seriously, literally everything the Romney campaign says is stupid and/or a bold-faced lie. I know this is true of every elected official but Romney goes to new levels with it.

Everything both campaigns say is stupid and/or a bold-faced lie.

 

Didn't you realize that 4, 8 or 12 years ago? That's politics. Say whatever you want to get elected, do whatever you want after you get elected.

I know. Let me rephrase: Romney is not even attempting to talk about policy, any further than "Obama sucks and f***ed us all" which is completely meaningless considering that was automatically going to be said by whoever the nominee was. Can't even be bothered to give specific reasons why and (I know this is going to sound like I'm speaking some forgotten, ancient tongue) what he's actually going to do different (tax cuts don't count. you're a Republican, no s***.) Yawn...

 

Meanwhile the media does what the media does, reporting a 3-point swing in a single poll as if it actually means anything at all whatsoever while the rest of the national polls hold steady with Obama's built-in electoral lead in a race that hasn't really budged in months, and won't. Someone wake me up in November.
