LIVE BLOG – Super Tuesday 2012

A win for Kaptur is a loss for al-Assad as far as I’m concerned. This makes it even easier to beat Joe the not Real Plumber as far as I’m concerned, as well.

Giving Limbaugh the Bum’s Rush

I can totally see that.

NONE OF THEM HAVE. It’s like its own meme and they repeat it as truth. No amount of CRAZY CAPS LOCK SHOUTING seems to get the actual facts through the bubble. They actually believe she was talking about needing to have lots of sex, not about a medical concern of her LESBIAN friend (I mean honestly, you’d think they’d be bitching about THAT!).

You know, it is possible to have casual hookups without being an irresponsible jerk or a ‘slut’.

I think the point should have focused more on the hypocrisy of wanting one while opposing the other.

Just sayin’. I was on board with that and then it got a little cliché and went into bitter anti-man stereotype territory.

And not just misogynist assholes like Rush, but it I kinda felt it started to generalize. I get it, you’re being generalized, and you’re pissed, but some of us guys were with you in the first place too, you know?

Well now, I’d missed this.

Indeed, I don’t think she was acting much. In any case, I hope the cast of The Middle gives her some shit.

Oh, so this is what “Christian” comedy is.

Weekend Music Thread – Girl Power

Too perfect.

Ayria – Bad List

I wasn’t kidding.

Somehow it feels I’m getting more frustrated
With every tongue tied, wild eyed, overrated
Narcissistic, self absorbed spawn of a generation bored

Want to see you vulnerable, I am not your equal
Ruling with an iron fist, and you are on my bad list
A routine casualty
Razor sharp beauty queens
Bridges built are bridges burned
You will get what you deserve

(Chorus:)
What did they do,
That made you so awful
Why do you say,
The stupid things you do
The ones you’ve hurt,
I hope they hurt you too
The things you’ve done,
Will eat away at you

And now I think I’m done caring
Too many mindless, self obsessed, overbearing
Misogynistic, plastic hearts
Can’t wait to see you torn apart

(Chorus)

You’ve made this list,
You won’t be missed
You’ll have to learn,
Some things you don’t deserve

Can you believe that with the Rush thing Matalin and Fleischer tried to deflect asking if Obama should apologize for an anti-Catholic piece on AOLHP.

No guys, they should apologize to HIM.

Go back to the false equivalency generator and try again.

Here we just call it the Scottsdale demo.

I notice other than the military they didn’t even touch foreign policy.

My lord….

What does that even mean?

I’ve been saying this so many times on incomprehensible answers.

They needed to separate them for foot fetishists, which need nothing else.

Now I just remembered that in Elementary we had to do “chemical spill” drills cause of the nearby highway and railroad.

Okay, that’s eerie.

And speaking of eerie. Cheap rubber dolls piled in a Chinese factory.

That’s just spooky to think how often a nuclear warhead passed my house, ’cause I didn’t grow up very far from the I-5.

Just recently, my uncle said a buddy is trying to get him into being a trucker, for military bases, who contract stuff out. Need a special license, can’t say what you’re doing, and for the most part don’t even know what you’re carrying, ’cause they lock it up and tell you to drive.

But the pay is fabulous!

Ah, the weird jobs out there.

A GOP Anti-Valentine to Women

The Daily Planet, Vol. 207

And of course they got Bill Donahue from the Catholic League bitching on FOX that this accommodation is nothing but an evil smoke screen and comparing mandating it to mandating handguns — because, like a handgun the pill kills conception. Of course, no one corrected him or the other guest on that lie but piled on calling birth control an abortifacient. And not even the Morning After pill, mind you. No, Birth Control!

Oh, by all means, double down on this guys.

Now Joe Scarborough, who was warning the President last week about “religious liberty” was warning Republicans this morning to let this one go. Because now it IS unambiguously about birth control.

The Daily Planet, Vol. 205

In a related note, the meth lab of democracy in Phoenix is (besides proposing yet another campus gun bill and besides Bible classes) proposing a bill on “religious discrimination” to prevent teachers at colleges from being fired for their faith.

Of course, they’re so stupid they again don’t see how this could work against them should an atheist or Muslim be targeted by these very same people.

They gave a bogus example of an Evangelical Creationist or some such thing without any evidence.

It must be a scary world with so many imaginary threats lurking out there.

We know all of that, but the admin, being full aware of who they are dealing with by now, should have anticipated how this would be exploited and should have rolled it out better saying exactly all that to neutralize this in the first place.

Quite frankly, ironically, the more Obama can mention he’s doing what Bush did in humdrum cases like this, makes them talk about Bush if they want to still go after it. It could have been turned into a win-win.

Now, someone needs to get out there and explain all of this. The “damage control” for this nontroversy has been flatfooted. They were blindsided, and shouldn’t have been.

The problem here to is when it is across a border like Pakistan, where we’d be naïve to believe we didn’t have some special forces, but the blowback as bad as it is from Pakistan for drones, would be worse should they detain our soldiers. Sure we did it for OBL when we could have tried a drone, but those were extra-special circumstances that I think the commanders don’t want to risk all the time.

I get the ethical points. I get why people don’t like drones. But as amoral as it may be, there’s just practical cost-benefit analysis too.

If anything, I’d like to see them used more carefully and sparingly, if that were possible. I do think that we’re using them more regularly, and it’s especially the ones not under the military that give me pause.

Actually here you make a point more than future admins using this technology, the precedent I’m more worried about is should a rival nation ever catch up with us.

Now, I don’t put much stock in the Iranian and North Korean drone programs, but just think about if they, or Syria could take out their “terrorists” across borders as we do with near impunity.

Then more of us might feel differently.

I’m still pissed it was even brought up in an election year. I want this tempest in a teapot dealt with YESTERDAY. TAMP THIS THE FUCK DOWN NOW. It’s given the right a shot in the arm. And yes, it’s more optics and narrative than policy. Now they get to play the “he attacks faith” card (meaning of course, only their faith) and squeeze it for all its worth. It was like a gift. An unforced error.

My only hope is that it wins over women. Patty Murray put it well that this is about contraception and that attacks against women are always veiled as something else.
