   Yup, you guys are all American. You should call up Crooks and liars and down with Tyranny and CSIS before you allow comments.

   We need a statement from these blogs that they don’t work for CSIS or think they run policy like the National Post. Canadians think’n we coulnd’nt figure the spy blogs.

   You figured out the spy blogs? Damn, we’re so busted!

   Pennsylvania will be entertaining to watch. How should they make their pitch? You’ve got Philadelphia in the east, Pittsburgh in the west, and Alabama in between.

   i>What?

   Don’t think you want to know…

   Aannnyway,
   I see what you did there Dan. Clinton, representing the established dems, is the blue army. Obama, the dark candidate, is the evil grey.

   BECAUSE OF THE RACISM!!!

   TSI: Not a bad analogy.

   As a native I’ll start off by sayting that Barry O’Kennedy has a tough road to travel in this primary. One wouldn’t normally think so as both Pittsburgh and (especially) Philadelphia have well oiled get out the black vote organizations.

   However several key, populist Democratic politicians pledged early for Hillary, most importantly Gov. Rendell and new Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter, an African American. Suburban voting in Philadephia will probably run along the demographics of Hillary supporters so a potential lack of huge black majorities makes the state a tough task.

   Somebody call the UN to translate #1 from “lower troother.”

   Darn, I was hoping the fight between these two would be more on the order of Antietem.

    well-oiled? WELL OILED!?

    You know on Hogan’s Heroes, Hogan and LeBeau used to put black oil on their faces when they were going to go into town through the tunnel in Newkirk’s barracks. What will they be calling their get out the vote organization BJ? Tar Nation? Man! What a racist comment!!

    I’m going to plotz in someone’s scrapple if I hear that tired Carville joke about my wonderful state anymore.

    Things to know:
    1. We are very, very armed.
    2. We have lots of Catholic Democrats who don’t like abortion but love the Stillers.
    3. We are a state of retail politicking–lawmakers attend every ham dinner fundraiser at the VFW and sign the book at every funeral.
    4. We got 3 million senior citizens who want you off their lawn now or you’ll be referred to #1.

    CSIS is your NSA in drag.

    Your #4 sounds promising for John “Hey you kids! Get off my lawn!” McCain come November.

    Pittsburgh – any place that had a rebellion over taxation of whiskey is A-ok in my book.

    alpuccino: Please take the headphones off and stop listening Michelle Obama speaches. Within 24 hours your Selma like victimization contructs will be back to pre-Sharpton levels.

    What do the letters stand for, though? I’ve heard of NCIS and NCIC and NCDC but never CSIS.

    California State Institute of Sucrology?

18. Comment by BJTexs on 3/11 @ 1:15 pm #

    A couple of guesses:

    1) Canadian Security Intelligence Service

    2) Center for Strategic and International Studies

    3) California School Informatio Services.

    I would suspect #1 based upon the “Canadian” reference.

    We call her Mo Bama, fyi.

    Col. Klink too.

21. Comment by Diana on 3/11 @ 3:08 pm #

    It’s Canadian Security Intelligence Service.

22. Comment by McGehee on 3/11 @ 3:13 pm #

    Well, it’s nice to know the CIA isn’t alone in attracting its fair share of tinfoil-hat paranoia. Jeez.

    They get awards.

    I’m pretty sure LeBeau is still alive.

    Which is cool, considering the (real-life) Nazis tried to kill him.

25. Comment by McGehee on 3/11 @ 3:23 pm #

    IIRC, my wife told me once Robert Clary (LeBeau) once spoke at her school (middle or high, not sure) about the Holocaust.

    M’lady! How deep is it up there? I mean the snow.

    Werner Klemperer is dead? God, what else today?

    IIRC, my wife told me once Robert Clary (LeBeau) once spoke at her school (middle or high, not sure) about the Holocaust.

    That would have been cool to hear.

    As I recall, three of the primary cast members of Hogan’s Heroes either escaped before the Nazis came after them or survived the Holocaust — Clary survived, there were multiple attempts on Klemperer’s father’s life, and Banner (Schultz) escaped through Switzerland before his family was put into camps. Klemperer only took the role if Klink was a buffoon and never came out on top, but NEVER told his father what, exactly, his role was.

    Toss in the cause of whats-his-name’s death, and the show’s an odd capsule of 20th century history.

    @ #1

    I think she’s trying to say Les Habitants take Lord Stanley’s Cup in five.

    Whatever she’s on about, she’s wrong. Penguins in 4.

    I’ve changed my mind.

    Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

    Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

    But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
