are you incredulous because you're jealous, or that you can't believe i signed up for something for a mere pen? because let me tell you, it was one awesome pen. it had a little scroll that you could pull out of the top that, when unfurled, showed the average us expenditures on something or something. it was stupid. but so incredibly free

obama is proving his turdness with this "financial crisis" - business as usual.  nice post from a NYT commenter:

Wall Street Haiku

Privatize profits

And then socialize losses

But I wish the public could, in the midst of its pleasures, see how blatantly it is being spoon-fed, and ask for slightly better dreams.

Did anyone else notice that McCain's eyes looked funny yesterday?  Like one was wider and one was drooping.  Has he always looked like that or is there something going on?

they are both douchey turds - both business as usual.  O just has the intellectual gloss of a deliberator offering the empty slogan of HOPE (vomit!) (at least his identity card is valid) and M just does the "straight talking" decision-maker thing

You don't think there's a crisis, or you don't like his response to it?

I would venture a guess that for Jon - Obama is not being populist enough (at all).
Hey, nice marmot!
