so, let me get this straight, under his “leadership”, given the fact that themoajority of jobs he “created” were of the low pay , no benefits varietty, you somehow think this merits his election as president? are you high on something? cause Id love to get me some of whatevr youve been smoking or shooting or snorting. the f*cking unemployment rate DOUBLED!!! in the time he’s been in office. the rates only gone up a percent or so under obama, and you think electing a knuckledragging white trash texan cowboy wannabe is going to help the solution….. HOW? jesus that is f*cking STUPID, shove your “we the people” bullshit pal. perry is a f*ckin moron, and its a disgrace that there is actually a segment of society thats stupid enough to fall for his crap.
Apart from the nuanced style, notice the “low pay, no benefits” criticism of Texas jobs, which is standard rebuttal of Texas employment achievement.
Dunno if or to what extent it’s true, for sake of argument will accept it and ask: Is it possible that prevailing union wages in other states and generous health insurance benefits are a hindrance to higher employment?
UAW people lived too high on the hog for decades, is that not so? Not? In any case, we do have an argument here, one that is too yucky for libs to consider, they being the utopians which they have come to be.
Joe Walsh and media and Obama
Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) said the media protect President Obama and will work to get him reelected because he is black.
Well gosh, looks like he can.
Thing of it is, however, look how they covered for John Edwards. Maybe you don’t have to be black to get protection. But does it help?
“They are so vested in our first black president not being a failure that it’s going to be amazing to watch the lengths they go to to protect him,” Walsh said. “They, I believe, will spout this racist line if some of their colleagues up here aren’t doing it aggressively enough. There is going to be a real desperation.”
He is special, yes.
McGinniss vs. Palin(s)
Has Joe McGinniss reached out for instant success/sales by going after Palin? It’s a natural in some circles, as we know.
Yes, yes! in Oak Park

Punchy eating, French convenience. All one could wish.
Fr. Pavone wants to free-lance?
The Fr. Pavone business has been long coming? And a lost cause for him, even if the bishop was inexact in his announcement?
Especially in light of [presumed] behind-the-scenes negotiations, and the consultations that must have taken place, it is unfortunate that [Amarillo’s] Bishop Zurek sloppily used the word suspend in the public announcement of his decision. Father Pavone was not suspended; he remains a priest in good standing. He was summoned to serve the Church in the diocese where he is incardinated. There is no question that the bishop has the authority to restrict a priests ministry in this way. Although Father Pavone has announced a canonical appeal, it is difficult to imagine how he could prevail.
Yes indeed on the “suspend” matter, which naturally became the lede for the Amarillo newspaper story. Unfortunately.
There’s much more, from Phil Lawler.
Black-white gap at Oak Park & River Forest
Customary hand-wringing at Oak Park & River Forest High about blacks’ low achievement, plummeting in recent years at yet higher rates. Hopeful sign, however, as a board member very carefully sounds a different note:
Board member Terry Finnegan countered that, while raising minority scores is and should be a priority for the school, teachers and the administration can only do so much.
I dont want to lay it all on the school, Finnegan said. Every day is a 24-hour period of which the school does not control the entire day. While we have to be leading in the education of our kids, its not the only factor involved.
Meanwhile, never any talk of dismantling the current race-based programs, unconstitutional on their face and failures on the record.
Royal family
Daley daughters’ police servants:
The [bodyguard] detail was used to take one or the other from work/shopping/running errands/and transporting baby-sitters/ and on and on and on, said a Sneed source. At times, they were even used to pick up and transport Noras husband, Sean Conroy.
Look. When you got it, flaunt it.
How To Kill Black People
“We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”
