He's no fortune teller, conservatives have been making these arguments since long before you and I were born. This country hasn't changed all that much in the last half decade.

He was wrong on pinning his woes on the commies, it turns out corporations were the real threat all along. He was also wrong about taxes, as our taxes are fairly moderate compared with the rest of the free world.

Upvoted because he is a snappy dresser.

My parents kicked me out of the house in the middle of the night this week.
It's because I wet the bed.
Course it didn't help that I was standing on the dresser when they caught me.
I think that's what woke them up

I know. But she only says that after I leave the money on the dresser.

I hear that a lot from the men that my mother dates...

...oddly they still call me "rotten seed" despite not knowing of my online existence.

My aunt's brother's hair dresser's cousin supports Farrakhan too. I'm a bad, bad man.

Do you think if Bush's brother Jeb mentioned in passing he admired "a few of David Duke's ideas" the liberal-in-denial media wouldn't make it a screaming headline?

Receive with the same grace as what is given. This is not a game.

I almost upvoted Choggie's post just because he surprised me and chose not to use the word 'paradigm' for a change. (Choggie watches The Matrix every night before bed.)

Choggie wrote (re Kucinich): "...and a man of flexible character..."

That's a pretty meaningless criticism. (One could just as soon say of a politician that he/she's of inflexible character.) The guy stood his ground and refused to privatize Cincinnati's municipal electical utility, pissing off enough powerful people that the mafia had a contract out on him. Pretty flexible indeed. *rolls eyes*

"He was elected mayor of Cleveland in 1977 on the promise to save the city’s municipally-owned electric system which offered customers significantly lower rates than the private utility. A year later, Cleveland’s banks demanded that he sell the city’s 70 year-old municipally-owned electric system to its private competitor (in which the banks had a financial interest) as a precondition of extending credit to the city.

The attempted political blackmail failed as did several assassination attempts. He remembered his parents counting out coins on the dresser and refused to sell the people’s power. In an incident unprecedented in modern American politics, the Cleveland banks plunged the city into default for a mere $15 million despite being offered triple collateral to protect the loan.

The principled stand destroyed his political career. He lost his reelection bid. He was demonized as the mayor who threw Cleveland into default. Fifteen years later, the citizens of Cleveland - recognizing he had saved them hundreds of millions of dollars in municipal power bills and also forced the private utility to keep bills low to compete – voted him into the Ohio Senate. His campaign signs featured a light bulb and the expression “Because he was right.” In 1998 the Cleveland City Council honored Dennis for “..having the courage and foresight to refuse to sell the city’s municipal electric system.”

no way dude, that's when you know yer a cross-dresser.....

.man, that discard got a great reaction, i seriously did not know i did that....meant for another open window....!!

You know your addicted to Videosift when you have nightmares of posting a duplicate embed code.

You know your addicted to Videosift when Ant's downnvotes start making you depressed.

You know your addicted to Videosift when you have a shrine of Dag and James on your dresser and wonder why they never call.

You know your addicted to Videosift when you cry watching reruns of the Colbert Report and remembered how you used to have several a clip in the top 20 and a gold star.

I'm no cross dresser. I'm just using meg's computer at work and she has the sift set to remember her. So if I reboot firefox and hit up the sift I feel like I'm logged in, and then I'm not. I could manually hack the db to change it, but well it's a pain in the ass.

cross-dresser meg.. the actual copyright is the videographer and whoever made the digital video that got uploaded to the internets. The zoo can go pound sand, but possibly can sue you if they have rules about filming on their property.

He says Zooms... throw Zooms at them. I assume it's a popular ice cream treat in Britain that people would recognize. Like a Push-Pop or Orange Creamsicle here in the U.S.

Izzard is great. The Riches (the new show he's in on FX) is super, though he doesn't play a cross-dresser or humorous character.
