In case you aren’t keeping track, we went a shoppin’ in See the Rabbits. Inside joke. When the Contrarian was a wee lad, his tender ears translated Cedar Rapids as “See the Rabbits.”
Anyway, we went and did all that stuff. God my hair cut too. That’s always a bit of a crap shoot. I got my shortest cut this time from a beautician who was obviously in a hurry. The Contrarian suggested that when he first saw he was glad I had no tattoos, otherwise I might have been mistaken for a biker Biotch. A couple of weeks, and it will look okay.
Sarah, bless her insignificant and fairly now passe` heart, has gone and done it again. This isn’t worth a link. Just take it from me that at the party following the Correspondent’s Dinner, she was asked who she thought was the most influential journalist.
In true Palinesque-caught-in-the-headlights style, she replied: “Oh good question. I’ll have to think about that and get back with ya. So many of course.” As she turned to walk away, she ran smack dab into gal pal Greta Van Susteran, and turned back “Greta here is the most influential!”
A pig was seen to fly by over her head at that point.

Anybody at all surprised that the wacka-doodle exTREEEEme right has twisted the entire Bin Laden affair around? The head nut at Tea Party Nation, not only says they entire thing was staged to help Obama’s re-election bid, but (AND I KID YOU NOT) his announcement was precisely timed to interrupt The Donald’s Celebrity Apprentice! Wrap your sane head around that one.

An interesting little piece of work here. A college class and their professor analyzed a number of “pundits” on some 400+ predictions they made over a sixteen month period. The standard, was some measure of accuracy. The results are amusing, and enlightening. Paul Krugman scored highest in accuracy along with Maureen Dowd, Ed Rendell, Nancy Pelosi and some others. Fairing the worst? Cal Thomas, Thomas Friedman, George Will, and politicos such as Lindsay Graham and Johnny McCain. Read it all, and then remember who to listen to in the future.
Well, that settles it. Don’t release the pictures. One can always know one is on the “right” side simply by saying the opposite of what the Grifter says. Besides, no photo will be acceptable to the uber wackos anyway, and it just makes sense to let them babble and turn off even more of the electorate. Rational people don’t need convincing.
Breaking News: The President has decided against releasing pictures.

What’s on the stove? Steak salad with honey mustard dressing and garlic toast.

I’m sure that by now you’ve heard La’Palin’s other hoof-in-mouth remark of late in reference to Bin Laden’s death being totally G.W.’s magic touch. She simply boggles the mind!
Mmm; steak salad. I cooking for one tonight so I suspect it’ll be a nice little sandwich. Not too bad, but not near as scrumptious as steak salad! 😉
Ms Palin is petty in the extreme…her remarks were congratulatory to the troops and she ignored Obama. She is simply an ignorant woman, period’
The Problem with Obama finally deciding to “Not TRelease the Photo” was that it Was released, shown on MSNBC, I think, immediatelly on Announcing Bib Laden’r death. Days to decide Not to lease the Badly Beatewn, Left Eye almost smashed by a Fist, before Any Shooting, shows the Incapacity of Obama and ‘team’ to decide anything. Ditto Immediate No Fly Zone and Aircraft over Libya would have Prevented the Civil War now extant; Obama waited Days for Other Nations to decide No-Fly. Thousands dying as Result of Inaction. Egypt succeeded because Armed Forces immediatelly sided with the People, as Libyan Armed Forces BEGAN to….
Tony I think that that is a faked photo that has been around for a few years.
What? Another month passed? In springtime? Ok, so do I turn my calendar back a day or forward a day…. I always get the important things mixed up….
Tony…word is that photo was released by Reuters, a UK agency…. not by the White House or a US news group.l
As I told Tony, I think that is a fake that has been around for some time…but that’s just what I heard.
