Does anyone else find this shit ironic in light of how much Polish Bob, etc. criticizes Fox News and the Republicans for being so intolerant of other opinions? No irony in differentiating bullshit from adult analysis and reporting. Just keeping it real in an unreal world.

I'm trying to channel my inner Linthwaite - that rare, detached bemusement at the human comedy, but as an Irishman, I must have at least one thing at all times to feel depressed about. Actually, the election's still looking good the Big O. Haven't followed the governorship race. Interesting piece in the NYT on the Gallup pole outlier thing. FOX headline may be TOUCHDOWN ROMNEY! but historically, that poll hasn't done too well when it's out in right or left field from all the others. But hey, them's just a buncha librul numbers.

I'd watch the Biggest Loser if only Moore and Rush would go belly to belly. Winner gets to do either Anne Coulter (Moore) or Arianna Huffington (Rush). MONEY.

'Rare condition makes man's scalp look like human brain'

Why, oh why, did I ever post that?

BOOM! Court ruling against the Defense of Marriage Act

I threw a planer into a building yesterday and it didn't collapse.

Is that pronounce stony-air?

I hope for his sake he's not paid by the convert.

Everyone who's seen the inside of the WTC is dead. How do we know if was ever there at all? THINK ABOUT IT.

I've finally gathered enough evidence in my shed out back to connect the dots - literally - I used a color coded dot system cause I had a bunch left over from a garage sale. I'll probably disappear after coming out with this, but... ...911 NEVER HAPPENED. Someone's got to know.

Would swimming help?

Vote today's GOP and you are officially stating that you do not believe in equal rights. Substitute women, blacks, whatever, for gays, as you like. The principle - a concept lost on today's 'conservative', is exactly the same. You are attempting to force your own ignorant, cruel, and bigoted religious beliefs, and let's face, Kristians are the ONLY group that opposes everyone's right to marry who the love these days, on every other American. Vote GOP and you may or may not consider yourself a homophobe. Doesn't matter. You're voting for a party that neither believes in separation of church and state nor Equal Protection. You're not only anti-American, in the true sense - not in the "I think this idiotic war is a really bad idea for the country, herd mentality, fox sense", but in the sense that you don't agree with the basic principles of what this country is all about. The Bill of Rights is what makes us American. That, and the fact that we were born here by some lucky accident. Not our military, not our Quorum Homes , not our Glenn Beck flag-wear. It's NOT all about the economy - an area which the GOP, with its infantile ideology is way out of its depth on anyway. That is a false narrative invented by pricks to obfuscate agenda to further concentrate wealth and enact their discriminatory religious social agenda. The economy comes and goes, regardless of who's in office. It's short term. Principles are forever. They represent who we are, or aren't, at the core. I AM anti-Kristian - today's phony, Born Again, Let's Save America For God type of Kristian. Big time. Not for their beliefs, which I do find kooky (um...they are), but for the war they've waged on the Bill of Rights since it was ratified. Unlike the Kristians, I believe that Kristians have a right to be who they are...as long as they do not impose their beliefs, through the rule of law, on others. I'm anti Kristian because I'm an American. Not a 'proud American', just a grateful one.

ARE THE 'GAYS' FAKING IT?

As I said, Rob is hard to characterize. The more gay he gets, the more hetero sex he gets. There's a lesson in there somewhere if you probe deeply enough.

Both arms may get a workout, but the sheep's hind legs are going to get the most benefit. Cross Fit.

PM JoshK. He's got a decent, updated quiver, mostly Dynafits. There's at least one AT ski thread from last year in the Freshiezone that's full of recommendations. I've got Manaslus and the ski well for me in just about anything, but I'm a quiver of one kinda guy.

The 'Binders' meme is far from a distraction. It's pretty central to the campaign for two reasons: 1) Mitt's heartwarming debate story was a lie. a women's PAC presented him with a list of women qualified for jobs in his administration when he was elected governor. He did not 'recognize the problem and seek them out'. 2) It highlights Mitt's proposed policies regarding women, so many of which he correctly states are in poverty right now. Why is that? The number one predictor of life long poverty for women is childbirth before finishing their education. Mitt, of course, proposes to force women to have unwanted children, as well as make education, at all levels, even less accessible than it already is. This isn't to say that Mitt opposed hiring women into his MA administration. When it comes to wealthy, powerful people, he's there for them. When it comes to women who are not part of the elite - particularly immigrants and those who cannot afford to bring their pregnancies to term, or who simply don't wish to, that's another matter.

Amirite? I'm creating a one dimensional graphic model of the FOX spin process for my graduate thesis in virtual gastroenterological philosophy. It's probably beyond any of you.

The moment one attempts to measure Rob's orientation, one can no longer determine it.

Might I suggest the Oil Finished Trucker Jacket and Single Tin Husky Chaps.

Can you post a pic from the back in those things? I'm always, er, have trouble finding pants with enough, um, freedom of movement.

Twitter brought Qaddafi down It brought Mubarak down Now it's bringin Mittens down down so low I can't find another woman filin' man to take his place

Boilerplate advice for maintaining good joint health or mitigating an injury: Omega 3 supplements if you're not taking them already. Essential for those with cholesterol issues, too. Of all the bullshit supplements out there, and most of them are just that, this one's for real.

You can always switch to alpine climbing where every piece of fixed pro seconds as a musical instrument.
