What do you think? Will the Teabaggers be just as big sore losers if President Obama and the Democrats get DADT repealed?

2. It generally takes very little to freak out the Baggers, and anything
involving genitalia, directly or indirectly, explodes their skulls.

The Baggers just aren't all that stable to begin with.

6. The skulls.... she's surrounded by them.... the Baggers are from the
realms of the undead or something and they all have skulls...

That's not just excellent social hard-hitting by you, Swamp Rat -- that's what I actually SEE when Palin or the other Bagger types are speaking at one of their events...

7. I try to tone it down for y'all.
If I showed what was REALLY going on in my mind, folks would run away screaming or puking. :D

How are you these days? :hi:

9. I appreciate your toning it down for us. You know how fragile we
liberals are.

Pretty good. And I hope you are through with enough of your classwork by this time to take a breather -- maybe go for a walk in the early spring night time and return home to some great international music or even some Emmylou Harris and the Hot Band.

13. My free time this week was wasted here and watching TMC
Been watching Bogart and Ginger Rogers movies all week when not in class or studying. I really dig Peter Lorre... "I can't help what I do. This evil thing inside me, the fire, the voices, the torment!!" :D "Aber verstehen Sie nicht? Ich kann es nicht hilfen! Ich kann nicht!" :D



Now I find myself chiefly amused by the wing nuts who want to march to 'defend' their 2nd Amendment rights, among all their other racially motivated antics. I suspect if they do rally with guns in DC, after a few drunks fire a couple of rounds we may seen a dozen or so dead.

16. Lorre has some kind of mix of grave nobility and earthy charisma --
or something -- that ignites when he speaks. He's more specter than character actor. Specters have more presence -- and more fun.

"All aboard" is terrific!! There's that baffled expression on Palin with the hedgehog hairdo. Lovely.

-- "But don't you understand? I cannot help. I can't." Now you've gone and made me homesick for Berlin. I have a special favorite oak grove in the Tiergarten -- the replacement oaks after Hitler and the other assholes burned the first-stand oaks for fuel that last desperate winter...

Well, you're watching films, sir, and that is a good thing. You deserve their delight and they deserve a discerning viewer.

17. You nailed it.
He's a spectre caught on celluloid.



Even when Bogart slaps him around in "The Maltese Falcon," though squirming, wheezing, and bleeding, Lorre seems oddly unaffected in a way.

I take breaks from work. Sometimes I post here while working, and watching "Jeeves and Wooster" on the other monitor, like I am doing now. Sometimes, when I am running LINUX on one of my CPUs, I flip through multiple desktops in the form of a 3D polygon that's spread across multiple widescreen monitors. I can REALLY multitask then. :D

Actually, much of my day hours are spent reading books and scientific journals, when not in the field collecting data.

3. No. For one thing, the MSM won't be stirring them up.
Second, it's not really an economic issue, I don't think many will feel as threatened.

But watch out for the nuts that are threatened.

Immigration reform is gonna be a duzy.

11. Their temper tantrums are losing their effect.
At some point no one will care about their histrionics anymore, expect to point and laugh.

14. No, they probably won't care all that much. The Christian Right will be louder, though. n/t

18. You underestimate right-wingers' capacity to conflate.
To them, gay rights, unions and contraceptives are a way to achieve metric-system abortions through socialized medicine and separation of church and state, which is of course affirmative action in disguise.

15. No it will be 10000000000x worse. The Gayz are far scarier than socialism to a teabagger n/t
