Seven active bloggers, and you're the one who cracked. Remember that.

Yeah, it definitely had the feel of akrasia.

The blog is as incontinent as its weakest member.

Favorite line: "You're into border security/ Let's break the border between you and me." I pray I get the chance to use that some day.

Honestly? if he became President I would cry.

Cry of joy?

Bwa ha ha.

Fine, armsmasher, laugh at my idealism, but a black president? How could that fail to tug the heartstrings?

Holy Jesus, the pussification of the western male is complete.

Although I don't think 7 was about your tears.

Universal health care reform

Oo baby it makes me so warm

Young Klein must be happy about that, at least.

Ogged's inappreciative b/c she's shaking too much booty for him to handle.

I don't know why it still surprises me to see comments on a video like that all about the vomiting induced by miscenegous desire. Also, Ron Paul discussion? Are these people on the clock?

Young Klein must be happy about that, at least.

Young Klein, being Young Klein, would point out that Obama's health care reform is not universal.

As for the title of this post, this guy is quite obviously the best candidate. And I'm only half joking.

Miscegenous. Ben is elsewhere at the moment.

15 is great.

I especially like the comment from the person who says he thinks Ron Paul and not Gravel would make the best president because he's afraid Gravel would institute a carbon tax.

I might click through, if only to get "freaky like abu ghraib" to stop running through my head.

I wonder if this makes him cooler:

He just lost my support.

What? We can't even be sure it came from his campaign.

For fucks sakes, that "Sen. Clinton (D-Punjab)" is not race baiting. Click through and read the actual memo. Here's the excerpt relevant to that particular bit.

"Sen. Clinton (D-Punjab) Joked That She Was Senator From The Punjab Region In India. "At the fundraiser hosted by Dr Rajwant Singh at his Potomac, Maryland, home, and which raised nearly $50,000 for her re-election campaign, Clinton began by joking that, ''I can certainly run for the Senate seat in Punjab and win easily,' after being introduced by Singh as the Senator not only from New York but also Punjab."

The memo is if anything more disturbing (you see, I did read it). See:

Relevant quote:
"Asked about the document, Bill Burton, a spokesman for Mr. Obama, said: "We did give reporters a series of comments she made on the record and other things that are publicly available to anyone who has access to the Internet. I don't see why anyone would take umbrage with that."

For one thing, the memo attacks the Clintons for taking money from the Indian american community and for working for better ties with India in general. Secondly, it explicitly plays on a xenophobic card by specifically targeting Indians. Finally, it indulges in a hypocritical attack on the Clintons for taking funds from an Indian American businessman who is currently in legal trouble. This is rich coming from Obama's campaign given Obama's history with Rick Renzi. And the memo cites Lou Dobbs too, multiple times. Maybe this isn't a big deal for many, but it is for me and he's lost my support.

Secondly, it explicitly plays on a xenophobic card by specifically targeting Indians.

It specifically plays on the resentment towards outsourcing. Shockingly, this involves Indians. I suppose if I take notice of the dealings between the Bush family and the Saudis it's because I'm targeting Arabs.

19-23: I find this more troubling.

Seriously, WTF?

Shouldn't you be sitting somewhere and praying that the crying will end, Apo?

I've tried that, Tim, but I just keep right on crying (honestly, she's easier than easy so far--rarely cries and sleeps for 4-5 hour stretches at night).

Lucky you (he said on the basis of second hand knowledge).
