But with
Sheriff BartPresident Obama in charge, the hostage has already shown that he’s willing to shoot himself if that’s what it takes to pass the Grand Bargain. -

Another fun fact: salt water weighs more than fresh water (8.55 lbs/gallon v. 8.34).

ducktree commented on the blog post Second TV Ad for Amendment 64 Released
I’m not holding my breath (no pun intended). Even if these various measures do pass at the state level, the DOJ is shutting down dispensaries throughout California despite what the voters expressed. I stopped at my preferred dispensary this afternoon and they are C L O S E D.

No, it’s the other Koch-sucker, Erskine Bowles, who’s name is being considered as a replacement for Teh Timmeh. Gah!

I was “able,” but nowhere NEAR ready and willing. I’ll leave that to the professional Hazmat Team. Take it away . . . ~please~.

I understand there may be yellow cake served at next year’s SOU in February, just in time for the March madness. /s
Did you know that the month of March is so named for Mars, the Roman god of war, as March has better weather for the commencement thereof.

More like the Tin Man (but I love Dorothy too much to tout such an argument, as the TM eventually came around as a loving, though still hollow, individual).

ducktree commented on the blog post The Romney Campaign Pre-Obituaries
I’m none too sure what the “pic” would look like but the caption would read:
Don’t change Dicks in the middle of a screw, vote for Nixon in ’72.
Just change Obama for Nixon (but the “’72″ and “12″ are a lot harder to get to rhyme).

If’n I’m gonna be eaten by the next generation I believe it’s important that they have a good understanding of home economics and a healthy diet. We used to be taught that back in the day. /s

I haz a confuze. If NOTA wins in Nevada, would that mean their delegates to the Electoral College will not participate in the final count of delegates used to decide the winner in November? Or is this totally meaningless? Anybody know? (So many questions, no?)

Those are Franken-food seeds, not naturally occurring ones like cannabis but created by hybridization. You can patent hybridized plants/seeds (like rose hybrids, etc.).

He’s wearing his wedding ring on the wrong finger, or was this picture taken before he gay-married his wife? /s

ducktree commented on the diary post Bain Alum Meg Whitman Announces Worst Losses in Hewlett Packard’s 73 Year History by Jane Hamsher.
I think when she uses the term “crisp view of that by 2013″ it will somehow involve Mitten’s Etch-A-Sketch. Clean slate, turning a new “crisp” leaf . . . that kinda thing.
Milton/Bradley 2012!!1!

ducktree commented on the blog post Biden Promises No Changes to Social Security
Aw, c’mon Jon. Biden’s promises are as genuine as his hair plugs and his resumé. But really, “no changes”, Joe? Some changes DO need to be made, like remove or raise the payroll tax cap at the least.

ducktree commented on the blog post Romney Raises $25 Million More than Obama in July
Srlsy. The laundry list of reasons for me continuing to refuse donations of any money to any Democratic candidate, up ticket or down, grows daily. If I were a conservative Republican, on the other hand, there’s no reason not to give those candidates monetary support as they’re getting everthing they could possibly dream of from their party. But here we are, wishing in one hand and, well . . . you know what’s filling up the other hand.

Crap! My sister just left on a flight today for five days in Turkey. Yesterday, I warned her to stay far from the Syrian border (and go easy on the stuffing and mashed potatoes).
