How the hell does one not get banned after having 95% of their comments hidden by several dozen people in one day?

He's not even in the state...  Not everything is a slight towards her.  Promise.

No... he's my governor.  Trust me, he's a politician.  He's just really really good.  

Are you seriously going to complain about one Black (possibly) calling another an Uncle Tom, and then turn around and call someone a hoodlum yourself?  Could you possibly be any more hypocritical?  

We need more Bush/McCain photos out there.  

She is definitely and publicly pro-choice, not sure why the diarist said it was unsure...

Milquetoast?  Biden?  Are you kidding me?  Have you ever heard the man open his mouth?  

Yeah, cause no one would see that as the tokenism it is.  

In naming my colleague and friend Joe Biden to be the vice presidential nominee, Barack Obama has continued in the best traditions for the vice presidency by selecting an exceptionally strong, experienced leader and devoted public servant. Senator Biden will be a purposeful and dynamic vice president who will help Senator Obama both win the presidency and govern this great country.

Watch for the bears.  I had a scary run in with one in a berry patch last week near Redlodge.  

"Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret" is an awesome book written by Judy Bloom.  The title is a reference to a major theme in the book- Margaret's search for religion, having been raised without one.  

And why would Obama have to pay it off?

Name me a VP possibility, and I'll tell you a good reason they suck.  

But when Catholics like Kaine state it (even when they also say they support Roe v. Wade), people freak out and lump them in with actual anti-choice people.

Uh, Lieberman is strongly pro-life and for stem cell research.  

And Obama's choice will not be a progressive.  It'll be a pretty mainstream middle of the road Dem.  They'll also probably be Catholic, and have personal issues with abortion (while understanding the need to preserve Roe v. Wade), just like the vast majority of working class White Dems, especially the Catholic ones.
