Wilson!!!!

Thank you to the Republicans last night who proved that Van Jones' assessment of them was spot on.

I caught some hi-lights from Obama's speech to America's students today. I must admit I was a bit surprised at the end, after the students kissed his ring, when he suddenly and without prior warning produced brown shirt uniforms sized and ready to wear for all in attendance. Who knew he would have been that well prepared in advance? On the production side of things, the burning torches that lined the gigantic arena where the speech took place added a nice theatrical touch and lit the busts of Stalin, Marx, Malcom X, Saddam Hussein, William Ayers and Jean Naigeon in a rather dramatic way.

All in all, I think it went well.

Bullying Face Puncher Weak Frail Victim Loses Finger And Sympathy

Sheesh. What kind of thug bites a finger just because it's on a hand that's punching him in the face?
Is there no limit to the savagery of these anti face punchers?

Adding
In the real world if you are dumb enough to leave your fist in a guys mouth you don't call foul when your fingers get eated. I'm not saying Rice can't get upset by the loss of a finger but hopefully he is also embarrassed by the sleazy type of political opportunist who plays the victim card in his name and portrays him as "the weakest most frail victim" guy.

Now, what was that I recently read about calling the waaaaambulance?

Also this:

The exception was a tall 65-year-old man in an orange shirt who Kuns said "was displaying what I would consider to be intimidating behavior." He first picked on a pro-reform woman more than a foot shorter than him, stretching his arms out and shooing her away as he advanced on her and she backpedaled.

"It appeared to me that he was saying, basically, get on your own side of the street now," Kuns said. "He was chasing her."

Next on the anti-reformer's harassment list was a pro-reformer who appeared to be in his late 30s or early 40s, was stocky, and several inches shorter than the 65-year-old. Though Kuns isn't sure how the pro-reformer ended up on the anti side of the street, she saw the two men face to face, exchanging words.

Then the anti-reformer in the orange shirt "punches him straight up in the face, right between the eyes." The smaller pro-reformer's glasses and hat flew off, and he fell into the street.

"I don't know who started it wordwise," Kuns said, "but I can tell you for sure that the guy who threw the first punch was the anti guy. And can he punch hard! He knocked this guy down into the street."

"Weakest, most frail victim".
Yeah.
It's hard to tell which runs deeper around these bedwetters from "victimhood" - their bullshit or their crocodile tears

Huh. Imagine that. Apparently Henry Waxman now is the embodiment of qualities so vile and thugalicious that he just may have earned himself a flattering book length tribute by none other than Anne Coulter.

Finally, someone (that someone being a calm and concise Barney Frank) addresses the crazies the way they should be addressed - with spectacularly devastating public humiliation.

Too bad he wasn't here too.

Don't Tell Me What The Palin Is Doing

Let Shatner! do it.

As we learn The Quitter With The Twitter says either:

a)

"And then the extremes
In the winter time it's the frozen road that is competing with the view
Of ice fogged frigid beauty, the cold though,
Doesn't it split the Cheechakos
From the Sourdoughs?"

or

b)

"And porn speaks to it's splintered legions
To the pink amid the withered corn stalks in them winter regions
While aiming at the archetypal father
He said with such broad and tentative swipes why do you even bother"

Cheat sheet:
a); b)

It's All Obama's Fault!

Except, not really.

"Every Administration spins and sugarcoats the economic truth. But the Bush White House took this disingenuousness to new levels. The surest way to get yourself fired as a Bush economic adviser was to say something that was true. Paul O'Neill was ousted from Treasury for warning about deficits. Larry Lindsey was kicked out of the top White House economic job for predicting in 2002 that the Iraq war would cost $100 billion to $200 billion — far below the actual cost but much more than what the White House was officially projecting. This disdain for reality, and for expertise, pervaded the Bush economic approach, and made it impossible for the Administration to react intelligently to real-world economic problems like the housing bubble."
