In related developments, new university studies show the occupants of Vatican tend to the Catholic religion and that ursine mammals defecate in wooded environs.

And talking shit to 10 year old girls. He’s a badass that way.

Not since Leo V, Doug.
The damndest thing just happened…I let go a pen, and it fell to the floor. I may have come across some new phenomenon.

Postively 4th estate! You got a lot of nerve to say you are my friend, when I was down you just stood there grinning.
Oh and blaming it all on us, that is ourselves, of course.

Where do you get Cannola oil in a bag?

Thanks, I just got weird looks from my coworkers for executing a signature Cubicle Farm Stifled Laugh/Snort™.

Sarah – Just your luck, I’ll up to my elbows in some primo Canadian Canola tomorrow. About 8k tonnes worth. I could get you a large bag no problem. You can make you own oil by golly!

Maybe nothing, maybe two things:
(1) The Obama campaign has things so wrapped up that the press is falling back to its normal jackal mode.
(2) Things are so close that the press wants to cover its bases and not get totally frozen out of a McCain administration.
Oh – and one more. The Obama campaign may have pissed off the press that they are turning to their own internal hate to get a little sweet, sweet revenge while they can.

The coverage of Smokin’ Joe’s inchoherent ramblings about the world specifically testing Baracky within 4-5 months of his ascension to heaven is a perfect indicator of how fucking brutally dishonest the media is. I guarantee that they spend more time talking about Gov. Palins clothes than the utter and complete lack of experience of Baracky, the same lack of any experience that Biden talked about in the primary.
Comment by JD on 10/22 @ 3:53 pm #
But Baracky got up in front of the press and distorted and lied about what Joey Hairplugs actually said, and they allowed him to say what Baracky thought Joe meant when he said it. Now that it has been addressed, down the memory-hole with that story. Nothing to see here. Move along.

MSNBC just fucking lied. Andrea Mitchell scares the shit out of me. She invokes visceral rosary-clutching horror as in take the tv and put it outside like in Poltergeist horror.
Comment by McGehee on 10/22 @ 4:37 pm #
President Jesus is infallible. If he says the sun rises in the south and sets in the meringue, well by Baracky it must be true!
Comment by Carin on 10/22 @ 4:44 pm #
Sarah Palin spent $150,000 on clothes and makeup!!11!!!!1
Mitch Albom is gonna give himself an aneurysm over it.

That’s rarely one of those gifts that keeps on giving, but I suppose it’s the thought that counts.

Barring accidents, a recurrance of a shotgun toting lunatic, or an actual stroke (not a TIA) you get more of me here.
Hmmm. Not so good, what? I’ll work on that.
Comment by Carin on 10/22 @ 4:56 pm #
I swears, you should have heard him. People in this country are SUFFERING and she’s spending that kind of cabbage on CLOTHES? What kind of monster is she?
Comment by SevenEleventy on 10/22 @ 7:15 pm #
Andrea Mitchell is spent because her hubby hasn’t been getting good press these days. BTW, she has a great witch face for Halloween!

primo Canadian Canola
Sorry, canola is the oil. It’s an acronym of CANadian Oil Low Acid. Rapeseed is the seed and rape is the plant that produces the seed.
That plant is a mother on combines when it pops up unexpectedly in the wheatfields.

That’s all you got. Beauty, and goodbye. See you at sundown.
Comment by Bob Reed on 10/22 @ 9:45 pm #
If I’m not mistaken, cannola is another term for cannoli-the scrumptious Italian desert confection…
Phonetically pronounced, gan-knowl, back here in NYC, they are a favorite among the folks around here. And since Alec is a Lew-ohng-ah Oy-lend-ah, are probably high on his list; next to a few lines and a bottle of Stoli…
As far as Palin’s clothes gate:
O! lets the mask slip in Ohio–Colin Powell is rushed onto MTP to endorse him…
Joey B talks about armageddon rising–MSM ponces on the cost of Palin togs…
In the Navy, we used to call this a smokescreen; or more commonly, a diversion…
*yawn* This stuff has become soooooo predictable, that it’s almost hard to get shocked! or outraged! about this stuff anymore. It’s become as commonplace as the sun rising…
Comment by Thomas on 10/22 @ 10:25 pm #
Perhaps coverage has been negative because McCain is a liar and Palin is an idiot. Also an idiot: Howard Kurtz. http://crooksandliars.com/2007/11/12/howard-kurtz-channels-bill-oreilly-accuses-msnbc-of-moving-left

The Obamatons’ latest attempt at manipulating the dhimmedia is the claim that Stalinist maggot William Ayers is nothing but a Respectable Education Prof.
Now Zombie has obtained a copy of his smoking-gun manifesto Prairie Fire.

Thomas.I find your ideas intriguing. How can I subscreibe to your newsletter?
Comment by Mr. Pink on 10/23 @ 5:29 am #
His newsletter should be printed on toilet paper.

#24 – Sorry back atcha but you’re wrong. We don’t call it rapeseed anymore for obvious reasons and to be real picky they are not the same thing exactly. I’m looking at representative portions of 8k tonnes of Canola 1 Canada this morning. Because it is canola it can be made into canola oil. Sort of like how corn can be made into corn oil.
Comment by Mr. Pink on 10/23 @ 7:16 am #
Hahaha this is funny, 150 grand for some clothes. Meanwhile 150 million in a month from vague sources and noone cares. All for so many TV and radio ads that I want to chuck a brick at my television after I hear them 400 times a day. Every time I hear an Obama ad I think to myself that it was paid for by breakin his word. Good to know that our next president, if O! wins, will break his word for 150 million a month.
Comment by MAJ (P) John on 10/23 @ 7:38 am #
Sen Obama had best be careful with the oversaturation – I have seen people in my county basically vote the opposite of some candidates because of reasons like “#$%& junk mail and ads” “the last of 30 robot calls was the last straw”.
There is a point where it can be too much.

#35, Is this one instance where somebody (named Soros?) gets what he pays for? I haven’t noticed any illegal gifts on my credit card statement yet, but the election isn’t over.
Comment by Mr. Pink on 10/23 @ 8:03 am #
This guy was oversaturated before he won his first primary in my opinion. Hell he won his senate seat in 2004 and gave one speech at the convention then I had articles about him at least once a week in the WAPo. In the runup to the 2006 midterms he was not even running for office and the WAPo had him on the cover more than the freakin Redskins.
Comment by geoffb (JARAIP) on 10/23 @ 10:01 am #
I’m getting 3 or 4 robo-Obama calls per day on my land line and today, this morning, they started on my cell.
Even if I supported the guy this would do it for me. It is my policy to never buy anything from any organization that telemarkets to me.
Comment by Mr. Pink on 10/23 @ 10:05 am #
Everyone of those robo calls you are recieving was paid for by breaking his word.
Comment by JD on 10/23 @ 10:12 am #
It is ironic that Baracky is beating McCain, in a large part, due to the McCain-Feingold rules. That, and public financing. But Baracky threw himself under the back of the bus on that one.
Comment by Slartibartfast on 10/23 @ 10:49 am #
Obama is spending $150 million on an election, and you’re worried about how much of a waste $150k is?
Just think of how many foreclosures Obama could have prevented with that $150 million.
