  1. Climate change is naturally cyclical, not man made. The notion that it is man made comes from watermellons (green on the outside, red on the inside) like Algore.

    The global warming myth has been effectively debunked, and no propaganda from our Marxist government changes that.

  2. LOL! Thanks for the laugh @1. Now that McMahon has gone to the big Green Room in the sky, you should really consider taking his place!

    For some reason, I can easily picture you in the roll of kow-towing, synchophantic side-kick…

  3. You should note Sen. Dodd came out for gay marriage.

    And thanks for the list of 76 but where’s the big huge scorecard for all sens. and reps. federal and state reps. and their stances on marriage DADT etc.

    Is Murray for gay marriage yet? Should I send her an e mail saying screw you not going to donate till you announce? How do I know?

    Is anyone in charge of this movement btw or is it just all disorganized and ad hoc?

    Btw Obama is about to give a big press conf. shortly; Iran and health care will be at the forefront obviously. I think NOW it IS time for him to give the democratists in Iran a bit of a boost. He’s usually pretty good at this timing, waiting until a wave builds around and launching into it like a body surfer.

    He’d also better explain this deficit stuff all over again because GOP is gaining ground on that issue. Maybe time to say “well that’s right we have big deficits so we didn’t have a depression. And yes, in the future we are going to have to lower these deficits and we will do it by raising the taxes on wealthier Americans. That way, most of you don’t pay so much!”

    Vive le socialisme–

  4. ‘Bout them burkas: have you noticed the way fundamentalist muslim women play with the hijab? Constantly tucking and rewrapping, drawing your attention to it while giving glimpses underneath.

  5. @7: You’re so right about the burqa. Look up “burka” expecting to see the blue Afghan swaddling, and experience a surprise. Strange homonymic coincidence.
