> Rules are rules. Glad to see at least one non slacker.

Here are a few more...

> Is she draining him of his precious bodily fluids?

"Did somebody say 'PRECIOUS BODILY FLUIDS'???"

I think Dowd's article is funny. She is revealing the plight of the Democrats. They really don't have a candidate that they like a lot, that inspires confidence, and that they can get behind with enthusiasm - unless they are doing so just based on race or gender. Otherwise, there is nothing there that either of them brings for the good.

Meantime, Hillary and Bill are so desperate to prove that they are not racist, have never been, and have always been in the corner for the blacks that I wouldn't be surprised if they would go black-face ala Al Jolsen and start singing "Swanee" in the last days of this campaign. (might be the only way left that Hillary can win, come to think of it!) Of course, all the while having their machine dig up more dirt on Obama and processing it to "sources" for distribution.

And...at this late date, Obama is trying very hard to find a way to identify with the common white, middle-class working man. Maybe he should ask Michael Jackson the name of his doctor who lightened his skin, to bring out his (Obama's)natural "whiteness," you know, the other 50% of his heritage that his pastor hates.

Still can’t believe she (Zeta-Jones) married that a-hole Michael Douglas.

What in the world does she see in that decrepit, leftist hack?

Sorry for going a bit off topic but that just blows my mind.

She’s jumping back on the bandwagon before it is too late

Exactly what I thought.

Now is the time to get on the Clinton bandwagon or be left cold and dead after they win. The Clintons have long memories and a desire for revenge. Hillary: The American Evita without the singing voice.
Woe to those who turned on her for theirs will be a grim fate. Her wrath will be Biblical.

They should be -- they've played the race card on Obama repeatedly, even doggedly, ever since before South Carolina, all the while insisting with typical Clintonesque brazenness that they are doing nothing of the sort, and that contrariwise it's Obama that is playing that card on them. [Clinton Lie Meter lurches into red, pegs out, falls over and breaks, bursts into flames.]

Of course, the black voters are voting as racistly (w?) as any Klan convention, and nobody this side of Neptune is calling them on it -- well, I did hear one AM talk-radio voice bring up Obama's hypermajorities in the black precincts, but that was about it. Everyone else in media is giving those turkeys a pass, like we owe them or something.

Seen the “Astro Turf” reference in several blogs; have yet to read enough to decipher.

Slick had himself an El Camino or similar, tricked out with a camper cap and Astro-Turf as a bed liner for quickies. Easy to wash down at the self-service car wash, you see. That was his trailer-trashy idea of a pickup ride, when he was soiling college with his presence.

I wanted to point out that Lucrezia was young and attractive, as opposed to Hill....

Compared to Hillary, Belfogar would be young and attractive.

And are the Bushes the Sforzas?

More like the Hapsburgs. Never learned anything, never forgot anything either.

Mrs. Douglas is a woman of form formidable.

I hope she presents Mr. Douglas with about six more kids. We could use the talent and the looks. The gene pool needs help these days.

Ah, but my friend, the Clintons shorn of left-wingy friends and protectors in MSM will be, shall we say, so inviting...... for our conservative bretheren.

Even if by some miracle Hillary wins, she'll win four years of being a voodoo doll for every thinking person in America. Payback is such a b!tch.....

Forgot to answer this question of yours:

“Do you think I should load Hydrashoks or Winchester Silver Tips?”

Doesn’t matter, because you never see the Borgias coming. Just don’t accept any dinner invitations.

Thanks for the astroturf answer; I’ll try not to have any visuals.

“Never learned anything, never forgot anything either.”

Sounds like an excellent motto.
