“So. You’re eating a sandwich,” Kenny said, sitting down in the chair across from mine.      I barely looked up. “Yes, Kenny. I’m eating a sandwich. That I made this morning. And brought with me to work. For my lunch.”      Kenny smiled, grabbing one of my napkins. “Cool,” he said. “I’ll take my half now, then. I’m freakin’ starving!” ~finis~

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer blog: Sen. George Voinovich, what do you really think of Barack Obama, the Democratic candidate for president? “He is left of Teddy Kennedy. With all due respect, the man is a socialist.” Ohio’s senior senator, a Republican, made his comments Thursday to a reporter for The Daily Sentinel in Pomeroy, Ohio. He was visiting the Meigs County Republican Party. Voinovich said he felt that John

From the LA Times Top of the Ticket, “Obama tells NY Times he’d do better without Fox News around”: The New York Times, of all places, has a long interview coming out Sunday with the freshman senator from Illinois, Barack Obama.

It took them 40 years, a new strategy of insinuating themselves into the existing power structure, and the perfect storm of GOP excess and a polished, true-believer front man of the right hue and temperament to play to Americans’ desires for novelty and “change,” but the New Left — a group who once openly despised bourgeois “liberals” but who now claims to represent them (erroneously, of course: there is nothing

And still no notification that my account has been suspended. As I noted before, this was no small account: I’d cut, titled, and uploaded 49 videos, all of which I wrote the descriptions for. I set up a youtube channel, including a personalized logo and custom color scheme. The channel had, in 6 months, garnered close to 400 subscribers and had received very positive feedback from grapplers and those interested

From API, who was the recipient, they claim, of an angry phone call from Michelle Obama with respect to African-Press International’s less than hagiographic treatment of The One: When API told [Michelle Obama] that our online news media was only relaying what the American Bloggers and other media outlets had discovered through their investigations, Mrs Obama was angered and she came out loud with the following: “African press International is

Glenn Reynolds doesn’t think so — though he does think the race is much closer than we’re being led to believe — whereas US News’ James Pethokoukis isn’t so sure: Barack Obama actually told that Joe the Plumber guy that he wants to “spread the wealth around.” What, did Obama just get done reading the Wikipedia entry on Huey “Share the Wealth” Long or something?
