Today’s British Slang Introduction of Stevie:
“Our man from across the pond, working the phones in our Nation’s [...]

My wife and I just stood, mouths wide, when we saw this one.  ”Tell you what, honey, let’s see how many famous SCOTUS cases we can name that aren’t Roe v. Wade.  You start:”
“That Board of Education one?”
“Yeah, Brown vs. Board.  Plessy v. Ferguson.  Your turn.”
“Uh,… oh! Bush v. Gore!”
“Good one.  Marbury v. Madison.  Next?”
“Um. [...]

I’ve been reading a lot of blogs leading up to the vice presidential debate tonight.  A lot of “Palin’s a formidable debater”, “she can win on style not substance”, “master of the glittering generality”, and so forth.  Too many posts wondering how Biden can address her - he can’t be too smart, or he’ll be [...]

The Palin and McCain administration.  Yes, she said it.  And I’ve had a listener email me about previous examples where Palin referred to John W. McCain as her “running mate”, a term which always denotes the sidekick, not the head of the ticket.

[Hat-tip to kos for posting it...]
Balloon Juice
Sarah Palin is the distilled essence of wingnut. She has it all. She is dishonest. She is a religious nut. She is incurious. She is anti-science. She is inexperienced. She abuses her authority. She hides behind executive privilege. She is a big spender. She works from the gut and [...]
