It's not Birth Control! It's medicine for my angry, angry lady parts.

Just copy progg reviews of Breitbart's book word-for-word.
(He is here, you know.)

"Go back to Arizona and play golf and just stay out of everything else. Thank you."
The NVA saw to it that Maverick's golf swing would be permanently disabled. I feel for him in that regard but he's still a political jackass.

Before the hearing the Republicans should have found out about her past, and just hit with questions about how full of shit she is and her agenda. And then this wouldn't have become the story that it did

There was a bit at...Frisky? Some site for clucking leftwing sluts blocked by IT...from a lesbian who claims that "being a lesbian doesn't mean she can't enjoy having sex with men." I read it b/c Insty linked to it.

Um... isn't that kind of what being a "lesbian" means? Otherwise wouldn't the woman in question be considered "bisexual?"
I'm pretty sure what's her name -- the tall skinny one from Sex in the City who doesn't have a horse face and always reminds me of Olive Oyl --- recently got in trouble for saying essentially this exact same thing. Cuz, you see, being gay isn't a CHOICE. It's GENETIC. Therefore implying that there is any kind of CHOICE involved in who you fancy from a sexual perspective means that you are undermining the LGBTQRSBBQ message, and must be publically shamed.

A mini-doom 'green shoot': Green Firms Get Fed Cash, Give Execs Bonuses, Fail
Yeah yeah, old news, ever heard of Solyndra?, I get it. But ABC ('All Barack Channel') actually ran some good info in this story, profiling companies few of us have ever heard of. Where they failed badly is in ignoring the political persuasion and connections of the managements of these companies, which is what this is really all about. But as a baby step toward the light of doom - not bad.

The book reviews on "The Rent is Too High" at the sidebar are absolutely side-splitting. Wrote my own. Which Moron/Ette wrote this review?
"I'll admit, I'm usually a fan of a Yglesias product - the smooth sensual sounds of Julio's ballads and Enrique's latin dance beats are both highly prominent in my ipod rotation. But this book is just - awful. So what is this guy, like the porcine Cooper Manning of the Yglesias family? Is the rent really "too damn high?" I asked a bunch of different people after reading this book, and all their rent payments were different. I think this guy needs to do some research before writing a book about rent."

There is no talent so ardently supported, nor generously rewarded, as the ability to convince parasites they are victims...Thomas Sowell.

I made it to the word sensual, then I lost it.
Whoever wrote that review deserves a gallon bottle of Valu-Rite.

Interesting WE are buying so many ads for the Volt since they don't sell more than 300 a month. Stoopid and even uses the word "crapload" in the ad. Think they should have just stopped at "crap".

I can't link to this fluking blog in the comments or the url box.
Just go to last night's ONT and all of StuckOnStupid's story is there, including a repost of the stuff that happened Friday.

The sad thing is, it's not even possible to say whether air strikes are a good idea or not. I mean, with this administration there is no way for the rest of us to be assured there would be a purpose to them. Could they be the right call at this time? Maybe, but probably not.
And it certainly doesn't help to have the senile old coot from Arizona wake up from his nap and declare "Air Strikes!" as if he's thought it through and decided this was the best course of action.

Wow, I've made a boatload of money in the stock market for the last few years ignoring Monty's warnings of woe...and now that he's gone the market's headed to Bear Country. Of course, the biggest assault on sentiment would be an Obama re-elect.

Queer, roughly, is "not straight." (Does it include polyamory? Which is a stupid word, Greek prefix and Latin suffix. Not sure.)
It can also be "questioning"--like same-sex pr0n but not ready to touch one in meatspace, that sort of thing.
I still think it's sad they refuse to celebrate the diversity and include F and V.
(I read "The Ethical Slut" once--the guy who lent it to me ended up in a monogamous marriage to a woman shortly thereafter, lol--and it seems that demanding Paul pay for your condoms so you can fluke Peter, while Paul never gets any, is unethical. Don't know why it's different when Paul is "total strangers" or "Jesuit school" instead of "stupid doormat guy you met at school." But anyway.)

Granted if it's going to get bad then not talking about it won't make it better but there was NEVER any positive news and NEVER any comments or essays on what could be done to mitigate the situation. Nor any feeling of sympathy to those caught up in the effects of a situation beyond their control.
Since they were so relentlessly depressing, I avoided reading them.
I already knew/know how bad the economy is as I've been under/un employed for 4 years.
Monty also held certain opinions about who, what and how the economic problems derived from and that anyone who was caught up by the downturn was somehow responsible for their plight.
I always got the impression that Monty thought everyone should've seen this coming or been prepared regardless. Said like a guy who's never made a mistake or misjudged the signs.
Blaming the victim never does anyone any good and it certainly aroused some strong feelings here which was not productive.
The posts were well organized but as I said they left off the "and here's the answer" or "here's what YOU can do to help yourself" or "here's what other people are doing".
I think Monty had never yet met a crisis that was beyond his control and his lack of understanding was apparent. This too grated on my nerves.
Contrary to popular belief; hard work and perseverance do not guarantee one success or survival.
Luck and circumstance play more of a role than most "self-made men/women" want to admit.
I would welcome the Doom Chronicles back if done on a once a month or bi weekly basis. Every week and sometimes more is too much when it's only one sided.

Only one sided? That's why it's called Doom.
