Liberal Culture

The Edward M. Kennedy Oral History Project The Edward M. Kennedy Oral History Project, created in partnership with the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia, is a compilation of interviews from current and former members of the Senate, House, administration officials, foreign leaders, Senate staff, issue advocates, journalists, Mary Jo Kopechne, family and friends documenting Senator Kennedy’s service. Following the launch of this collection, the Institute is planning an annual speaker series that will draw on this resource to highlight current and future national issues before the U.S. Senate. BUT, WAIT! Inspire the Next Generation?  Looks like he already has .... Thank you Ted. Tom Mann

Gluten-free is total BS

cwanza

"Let there be bullshit" “ Is it just me, or does Kwanzaa seem to come earlier and earlier each year? And let's face it, Kwanzaa's gotten way too commercialized. A few years ago, I suspended my annual Kwanzaa column because my triumph over this fake holiday seemed complete. The only people still celebrating Kwanzaa were presidential-statement writers and white female public school teachers. But it seems to be creeping back. A few weeks ago, House Minority Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., complained about having to stick around Washington for fiscal cliff negotiations by accusing Republicans of not caring about "families" coming together to bond during Kwanzaa.

Soros Buying Gun Mfgrs? NO.

Tails of the Gun Who Is Buying American Firearms Companies? Why? Q: Does George Soros own the company buying many firms that make guns and ammunition? A: No. Contrary to a fanciful claim made in a viral email, the Freedom Group is not linked to the liberal billionaire. The National Rifle Association says the real owners are “strong supporters” of gun rights. [Fact Check] I received this e-mail and got all jumpy and twitchy.  I checked it out before bringing Mr. Soros into my basement for questioning. Don't want another Judge Crater mistake. Ahem.

With no other information available,  you'll have to let this picture take you where it may.  What I see is a middle school bulletin board in Fairfax County, VA, or Montgomery County Maryland.

Daily DUH Boost in 2010 from stimulus now ‘killing’ housing market

Microsm USA News Call it a stimulus hangover. In 2010, Lawrence’s real estate market started to show signs of life as tax credits for first-time homebuyers — part of the federal stimulus package — did boost sales. But now as numbers for the first half of 2011 are released, it is clear that Lawrence’s real estate market is no longer stimulated. “The stimulus created an artificial boost for awhile,” said Gary Nuzum, senior vice president of McGrew Real Estate. “We knew it would help us last year, but we also knew it was stealing buyers from us in future years. And it has. It is killing us right now. I never thought it would hurt us this much but it has.” [Lawrence Kansas] Coming Soon ...-BAMA- AID BUDGET - Guaranteed to stop the bleeding for one news cycle

Father's Day Schmozer's Day

Let's quit pretending, okay? It's not that big a deal and "the day" only reminds us that you don't think it's that big a deal either. Check out the Google numbers to confirm: "Mothers Day," 163 Million; "Fathers Day, 38 Million." Case closed. - Gerard

McCain's Shift Makes Him Senate's Most Conservative

Uh, the sumbitch was trying to get reelected

Coldcuts

What a Friday the 13TH!

Assassins

Just after the last post, I went into the kitchen to investigate a noise.  Wham!   I was cold-cocked from behind, and went sprawling to the floor.  My attacker was, and you are not going to believe this, my attacker was freaking Paul Begala!  The sumbitch swung at me with a Mau-Mau machete of Kenyan manufacture while screaming "die Obama denier!"  I deflected the blade with a karate kick, from the prone position,   the blade nearly decapitating.-- I mean, defooticating it.  This is an actual pictrure which I renedered in black and white lest you faint. Continuing with the leg action, I caught Begala in the chest and flung him over my head.  He jumped up and bolted to the exit, but before he cleared the door I had unholstered my .45 and pumped three slugs into his back.  He stumbled out the door where somebody, another assassin, caught him and dragged him to a waiting van.  I'm pretty sure it was Howard Dean  I am not making this up, although I may have actually dropped a very sharp knife while slicing a sub roll, and punctured a blood vessel in my foot.  I'm weak from blood loss, and can't remember. Bastards.
