From one of my favorite comedians:
I tell you, the guy gets no respect.
Well, then whaddya waitin’ for? Slap on them leopard-skinned speedos and go parteh, babeh.
The roof,

the roof is on fire!
The roof,

I really do not watch much TV and when I heard that I likely fell out of my tree. I just wish the skinny female spokeswoman type person had some meat on them bones. She looks like an anorexic die job barbie doll.
Texpat; If you ever get a chance to hear Wyschogrod speak in Houston, I’m sure you would find it fascinating. Or you could go to the U of H and see if you could sit in on one of his lectures. I think I would love to sit on one of his lectures. How splendid it is that he’s in… Read more »

Those in our house have all had the same experience.
Been laughing for weeks about it.
It still sounds like orgy, even after learning it isn’t.
#34 Bones I really like y’all a lot and am real happy to be able to read your postings. I agree with BC, Hamsterville is now an important part of my life, even when I’m too busy to read every post or have much to say myself. I also like the idea there there are other regulars we “know” that… Read more »

What they say

What I heard
………Walking in an orgy wonderland.
I HAVE GOT TO STOP WATCHING TV
The Lawfare website is run by three legal scholar/lawyers with a lot of experience in the National Defense Authorization Act area of law.
They have written a summary of what the act actually does titled, NDAA FAQ: A Guide for the Perplexed. There is a lot of misinformation and disinformation about the legislation out there.
Here is the link.
Bonecrusher #44; To me, allowing a lesbian couple get the first homecoming kiss, a long-time naval tradition, is an announcement that the US represent homosexual couples. I imagined the grateful Iraqis and Afgans being taken aback a bit if they saw this event. Woud they want the US to protect them in the future? Will they themselves be more inclined… Read more »

Obama got your income too, eh? 😉
#40 & #44 – the phrase “Judge NOT lest YE be judged” cometh to mind “Gentlemen”……………
just my 1.25 (de-valued) 2centavos……………
Jon Corzine loses 1.2 billon = Democrat corruption is always good be they in office or not–Just ask anyone in the Goebbels Streamed Media.
Very few.
#42 EG: Would you be so kind as to highlight the paragraphs, or tell me which page it is on so that I can read it? Maybe give me some key words so that I can use the search function?
#40 Darren: It really makes one want to puke doesn’tit? We can’t just silently allow that perversion to take place, NOOOOOOOOOOOO we have to have it rubbed in our faces, and if we object to it we are the ones who are in the wrong – regardless of what Scripture (first and second Testaments) says. PC madness!!
Hey bunsonburner
Check your email. I Sent ya a gift.
#38 – BC, et al. I was specifically referring to the article concerning the rendition of Americans captured on the battlefield (United States) deemed by our CIC to be terror suspects and detained indefinitely without charge or trial (as authorized in the Defense Authorization Act) being shipped to foreign sites for a little softening up. If detainment without charge is… Read more »
#23 Darren The scholar Goldman quotes, Michael Wyschogrod, has been a professor of religious studies at the University of Houston since 1992. He is the most famous Jewish theologian in Texas and known internationally for his work in the ecumenical relationship between Christianity and Judaism. From Rabbi Soloveichik’s profile of Michael Wyschogrod in First Things, November 2009: Paradox attends the… Read more »
It’s Wednesday morning around 10:30 when the Oak Hill finally comes into view, its steel-gray bow peeking out from behind a grove of green trees at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek. It’s been three months since the dock landing ship left home for Central America, and all of the usual fanfare is waiting to greet its crew: crowds of cheering… Read more »
Silent Night – Mannheim Steamroller (Official Music Video – 1984)
Good rendition. The video makes me miss the Christmas snow I grew up with. I better get to my parents on a Christmas soon before they move to Florida.
EG: the document in question is over 300 pages long and is filled with gobledeegook. In order to find anything in that monstrosity one needs to use the search function with certain words.
#36 – I’m sure you meant to say that you had reclaimed some of President Obama’s land.
And I was just worried about being sent to re-education camp, but looks like they’ve got better plans for me:

I spent another coupla hours outside. Hadn’t planned on moving dirt today, but the sun was out, I needed some exercise, and the dirt was loose enough to shovel easily. And rain is coming, and I wanted to get it moved so the rain would help settle the moved dirt. I have now removed/leveled a “horn” or “peninsula” of dirt… Read more »
A special thank you is in order to Hamous, our host. You rock dude.
I would like to take this opportunity to say, even though we sometimes irritate each other, I really like y’all a lot and am real happy to be able to read your postings.

#30 M42: Made you look:>)
The new NORK dictator, Kim Jong Uhn, looks like a cartoon character who has been hit by a skillet and his face took its shape.
Jimmah Wissin Cawtah is a moron. He will give away the USA to any socialist/communist dictator around and will “break it off” in our trusted ally Israel at the drop of a hat.

Well, at least you didn’t embark on Bonesie’s caption challenge in #15!
Whew.
What about O’bama?
Is O’Reilly an O’Piner?
Them sorry, lowlife, Sonofa#^%!€in Opiners!!!
Interesting points of view expressed here “Some people claim the Republican Establishment does not exist,” Washington Times columnist Milton Wolf told TheDC. “We have a name for those people: Establishment Republicans.” “The Establishment is a real thing with amorphous and mutable borders,” political strategist Mary Matalin said. “Ostensibly, it is the members of formal structures (party leaders, Congressional leadership, funders,… Read more »
Alternative answers to: “I was a United States Senator” in the above cartoon. Here is my “Top Ten” list of captions (or balloons): 1) “I’m a liberal Dummycrat, I can get away with a lot of things.” 2) “President Obummer needed some political contributions.” 3) “I just personally taxed that 1% to give to the 99%.” 4) “I am going… Read more »
Didn’t Big Joe say we won?
I also wonder if TOWBWF will count this as one of his numerous foreign policy successes?
Texpat #16; Yes, those comments were very deep and it took some time for me to disect them. I do not like to be the one to instruct Christians about their religion, but according to the Catholic Church and all the major Protestant denominations, Christian conversion is adoption into the People of Israel; only by such adoption does the Abrahamic… Read more »
Just so that we can all keep the 2012 elections in perspective; keeping our eye on the objective: This is just a History lesson. I am sending it to all regardless of party. It is history and nothing can change it. The day the Democrats took over was not January 22nd 2009, it was actually January 3rd 2007, the day… Read more »
Thomas Sowell comes as close to endorsing Newt Gingrich as he possibly can without actually saying “I endorse Newt Gingrich.” Speaker Gingrich also produced some long overdue welfare reforms, despite howls from liberals that the poor would be devastated. But nobody makes that claim any more. Did Gingrich ruffle some feathers when he was Speaker of the House? Yes, enough… Read more »

I don’t don’t care how many times I see that list, I crack up laughing each time. Good humor never gets old.

Daniel P. Goldman is a Conservative Jew, an economist, recent former editor of First Things, the Roman Catholic journal, and best known internationally for his trenchant columns in Asia Times under the pseudonym, Spengler. In 2009, Goldman wrote this fine article for First Things on the meaning and origin of Hanukkah. He has reprinted it now for his column at… Read more »

#11 TT:
They are called “Coon-asses”
Another weird one from Louisiana. What is with that state’s men and Wal-Mart, anyway?
#8 TT: That is a great prank to pull on a telemarketer:>) I hold cold call telemarketers in lower regard than used car salesmen (at least they have a legitimate purpose) or even liberal congress critters (they make life miserable for wissin near everybody, just to make it fair).
Those crazy drunk Louisianans. Or whatever they call themselves.
At least they weren’t playing bumper cars on the road.

Great mob.
Carry over from late last night for those that missed it.
