Did you see the secret to the Republican's fundraising plan? "Tchochkes."

5. Seriously?

I hadn't seen that before. Isn't that illegal?

Oh, wait. They don't care about that.

There were ten (10!) exclamation points after it

in the PowerPoint. This is a verrrry important part of their plan. Now, of course, they don't mention that those "tchochkes" are houses and vacations, but, you know...

Love the pic too!

Finally, the man is taking charge...

I love it when elections have the consequences we want them to. :-)

9. I was pulling for a Medina/Perry show-down

especially after her hamster ad. But apparently, it would destroy the world to have that much crazy in one race. Dammit. :(

Edited on Wed Mar-03-10 08:18 PM by Patsy Stone

but did I completely miss the hamster ad? Is it anywhere as wonderful as Carly's demon sheep?

Ooh, you're right. That would have been some good TV right there.

13. Did you guys hear about Eric Massa?

Either he's got terminal cancer or he's been harrassing male aides. Or both. Either way, he's not running for re-election. Too bad. He was one we could count on and his district is pretty red.

15. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fave?

Bad enough that Mitch McChinless is a bald faced liar ..... "i am just warning you
so you can protect democratic seats." ...... but that rug/ weave he is sporting is pretty
bad.

BTW the vast majority of Americans support health care reform ..... the Frank
Luntz line ..... Americans are opposed to HCR is pure b.s..

33. Hi ralps!

:hi: I gotta say...kids are charming and cute (some of them, anyway)...but so are puppies and kittens, and I would not want puppies and kittens giving air-traffic control instructions for my plane.

What's next in cuteness?

"Hey, everybody! For all of today, I'm gonna give all my air traffic instructions to the pilots in LOLcat!!!!! 'You can has clearance? Meow!'"
