MSMer notes oddity of Obama’s long-time pass on his unsavory associations!
Please don’t forget to kick into Jeff’s Dem Convention fund. I realize there are a lot of worthwhile causes out there, but none of them is as likely to provide as much entertainment.ÂÂ
I’ll tell you what: You can even specify what you’d like Jeff to do with it, if you like. Such as procure an abortion for a colored fetus or buy a bottle of scotch. He’s easy that way.
Cheezit Crackers! I haz been startled. I jumped out of my seat.
You realize that that totally fuxxored teh main page’s margins, right?
You’re just trolling for thor, aren’t you?
Yeah. They should be defuxxored now, Sean.
Campbell is a vile racist.

Obviously, Dan beat me to the “publish” button. But I wasn’t going to throw out a half-hour of linking and writing, either.
The linked article had a point. The smart thing would’ve been for Obama to deal with this stuff much earlier. Then again, he probably didn’t know how this was going to turn out, so perhaps he figured this run was all about the exposure and that he would be trying again after four more years in the senate.
In general, though, one must accept the fact that we live in the information age and deal with it. There are no longer any secrets you can keep or skeletons that will stay safely in the closet. The only thing that insures your privacy is that no one else really cares. However, if you decide to be a public figure, be ready for it all to come out.
Y’all are a lot complementary I think. Like cigarettes and coffee. Or like other stuff where you have one thing that goes really well together with like something else.
And do you know how I beat Karl to the publish button? By saying absolutely nothing of interest about the subject!
Maybe, Dan, but at least you dragged out the flaming armadillo. So there’s that.
For real I think flambe should have a diacritical thinger. Here’s an extra one left over from Easter… é.
Yeah, I don’t have the graphics handy during lunch at my current undisclosed location.
Screw Obama… can you write some more about that hot Jewish chick .. Liz Wurtzel.. that you had up yesterday? ..Maybe put her picture back up on top of page one…? Maybe write some hot fiction about her and her identical twin sister and their sexual obsession involving middle aged phone company men? (ok.. the last part is a stretch.. but hey, thats why they call it fiction..)
There is no such thing as a flaming armadillo of death.
Doesn’t exist. Never happened. No records of any such event.
I think like about 5% of the little critters carry leprosy though. I think they just carry it though.
This is why they say you’re not supposed to drink after them.
The only way that denial could be better, Jeff, would be if it was from an anonymous source who was not authorized to speak on the record. Outside the gates of Area 51.
There aren’t any records because the county courthouse mysteriously burned down.
Is this a new Tex-Mex fajitas thing? I think there’s gonna be some tough sledding marketing ’em in the shell. I know it works for Red Lobster but there’s some history there that is lacking for Armadillo Flambé.
So – I take it he won’t be dancing on Friday?
The shell, she is crispy AND chewy.
Armadillos rellenos: Que ricos!
Possum on the half-shell!
“You can even specify what you’d like Jeff to do with it,”
Personally I’m hoping for him to write something along the lines of “Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 2008”, and have it sell as well also. Political reporting is so much better behind massive quantities of reality changing substances. The movie comes later.
I’m disappointed that the Nipple Alert hasn’t been used.
If I give will Jeff drink cheap vodka and take hallucinogens, set Nancy Pelosi’s hair on fire after mistaking it for an armadillo in a drug/alcohol-induced haze, and then attempt to put out the fire by pissing on Nan’s head? Please?
Just to clarify, Jeff would be in the drug/alcohol-induced haze. Although I’m sure the ‘dillo wouldn’t mind joining in.
RTO, I’m sorry. I just can’t seem to get such gifs to work here.
The smart thing would’ve been for Obama to deal with this stuff much earlier.
I’m not sure he realized there was something to be dealt with. His notice to Wright about needing to distance himself during the campaign notwithstanding (and assuming it’s accurate), he wasn’t in much of a hurry to go all Sista Souljah on Wright and Ayers.
Instead, he acted as if he only needed to say “Peace, be still,” and the waters would be calmed in a trice. Funny how that water isn’t as solid as you want it to be, eh, Barry O.?
The ‘should have dealt with it earlier’ is common sense talking. Like Sen. Kerry apologizing before 2004 about the senate Winter Soldier hearings. It is unfathomable for a normal person to understand the monumental ego necessary to ignore something like that, correct weaknesses, or at the least have a plan to deal with it if it comes up.
IIRC, in an earlier comment thread I wondered if Sen McCain airing the ads about his early life and acknowledging bad things (his temper, his more rebellious nature in school, etc.) wasn’t an attempt at addressing potential attacks. If so it would indicate a stunning ability to grasp reality, and an unbelievable level of persoanl insight in a presidential candidate.
I wasn’t clear: “Like Sen. Kerry not apologizing…”
Sorry ’bout that.
#15 Karl, if your computer runs Windows you always have [ALT]130: é.
Fun! Egg!
