Ta-Nehisi Coates: Lacks the Irony Sense

She rails on Jeff in a post entitled, “Epic Fail–Ayers ghost-wrote Obama’s memoir“. That’s kind of what I thought, too, but the critics liked it. UPDATE: Here’s the thing: there wouldn’t be such questions regarding O! if he didn’t lie about that gun survey, if he didn’t lie about his relations with Ayers, if he didn’t lie about his connections with ACORN, if he didn’t lie about his Wall Street

Felon Franchise

Crush of new registrations, shortage of workers hampers ability to deal with problem: More than 30,000 Florida felons who by law should have been stripped of their right to vote remain registered to cast ballots in this presidential battleground state, a Sun Sentinel investigation has found. Many are faithful voters, with at least 4,900 turning out in past elections. Another 5,600 are not likely to vote Nov. 4 — they’re

Maybe, apart from the threats to their family, they were

Faces of Crisis [Dan Collins]

AP: Ohio Shooting Puts Face on Mortgage Crisis Not Very Publicized Faces of Health Insurance Crisis (h/t Darleen!) Bushit for kids! I was thinking of building an adobe Obama, but that would be racist, somehow, I’m pretty sure.

Mixology [Dan Collins]

How to mix a Molotov cocktail. Right Wing Nuthouse has the context. (h/t SBP at the Pub)

Best of Collins [Dan Collins]

Whiter Shade of Palin How Deep Is Your Tank? Stopping at Snowy Nothing to Win (at Evening) Donk Duet A Canticle for Caric The Caric Fauxtrage (Just because it’s topical) Tubby on Furry Violence (Some cats picked it up and re-reported it) I think I may have written other things of which I’m particularly proud, but I can’t remember.

Mortgage Meltdown, in a Nutshell

Ed Morrissey. Vote for Cuomo, not the homo wners.

Been ferociously sick all weekend

Hope to be back Monday, once the projectile vomiting (hopefully) subsides. If Dan or Darleen, et al, are reading this and would like to post on the mainpage today they have my blessing. Meantime, let the deconstruction begin.
