Text Messages Imminent
CNN has just reported that the vice presidential pick has been asked and he or she has accepted. The coordination of sending the text messages out has begun. Now everyone stare at their phones.
Rick Jensen Must Go
Whatever else we do over the next year, we must committ ourselves to a concerted group action aimed at getting Rick Jensen off the air. His daily lies and smears cannot be laughed off any longer. Jensen is a blot on our civil discourse and must be removed like a malignant tumor. Letter writing campaign, […]
Casting the Joe Biden Movie
Let’s jump to conclusions and assume that not only is Biden going to be VP, but he is going to be such a kick-ass VP that he will have a Bio-pic directed by Martin Scorsese. I’ll start… Joe Bidenthe hero, played by Tommy Lee Jones. Tom Carper, the doofy sidekick, played by Steve Buscemi. Celia […]
Real Issues: Education
On a thread about McCain’s houses a plea arose for a discussion on “Real Issues”. Fine with me. Read both candidates’ plans and vision when it comes to Education, and tell us what you think. Obama’s here. McCain’s here. Ready, set… GO!
VP Announcement Thread #2

NO, never! Former POW’s can’t be elitist. Just forgetful, confused and disoriented. Elitist though, can’t have one of them […]
Hey look! a post not about the VP Announcement
As I embark on a new job next week, I think it may be time to venture into a world that seems to enjoy some readership here at DL. Short stories. Who knows how long this will last, but in order to stay productive at work, writing short stories at night appear to be the […]
VP Announcement Thread #1
One scenario was that the text announcement of Obama’s running mate would go out overnight, with all the morning news shows covering it this morning. That hasn’t happened. So now it looks like the text will probably go out this evening. While inside the Beltway Democratic sources are continuing to say “watch Biden” (according to […]
