Terrell Owens rounding up support for Michael Vick on Twitter
I love this story. Clearly Owens wants someone playing the first six games more hated than Terrell Ownes.
Comment Rescue: What About Protack?
Geezer says Protack still thinks he’s elected-official material. But is that true? Protack has progressed from postings that are merely strange to postings that are incomprehensible non sequiturs. He’s burned more bridges than the retreating Germans and the mainline Republicans would not lift a finger to help him win the post of dog catcher at […]
Brilliant
We are going to make them own the Birthers or risk their wrath: [Rep. Neil Abercrombie’s] resolution’s main purpose will be to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Hawaii’s statehood.

How About It Republicans?
E.J. Dionne has a question for 2nd amendment-loving politicians: (h/t Washington Monthly) I’ve been studying the deep thoughts of senators who regularly express their undying loyalty to the National Rifle Association, and I have decided that they should practice what they preach. They tell us that the best defense against crime is an armed citizenry […]
