Well, let's cross fingers, arms, legs, & toes that the tweaking as a result of last night's diary ending up with Jimmy Hoffa helps prevent a repeat.
It's time for "this day in history." On this date in 1792, the French national anthem, "La Marseillaise," was composed by Captain Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle. Cheese - eatin' - surrender - monkey language was made the national language the next day. :D Bud Abbott died on this date in 1974; I used to know both parts of Who's On First!
Wallis Simpson died on this date in 1986; she was portrayed as a real...uh..."not nice lady" in The King's Speech.
Now, we get SPARKy! :D Look for this culinary delight at a Pizza Hut near you. Isn't it just lovely that so many folk are taking the concept of "take your daughter to work" day so seriously? Finally, didn't Spinal Tap sing a song about this place? :D
On with The Rachel Maddow Show!
"Decision 2012" - Mittens is cleaning up in MENSA primaries tonight; he might even win Man on Dog's state! Newtie might bail if he stinks up the joint in DE? Well, I guess not; he didn't quit in his speech earlier. Mittens gave his speech in NH - where he announced this go - around for POTUS. Remember $aint $arah from Wasilla's little party crash that day? Bless her narcissistic soul. Mittens might be relying on symbols there, but, as George Carlin said, symbols are for the symbol - minded. Oh Rachel, do we really have to listen to him shpeal?! Heaven help us all if Mittens wins on November 6. *&^%$#@! Oh, this speech is gonna make me sick; I can already tell. I'd say a "1% America" begins tonight...not a "better" America...or, that's how it'll be should he win. *&^%$#@! Rachel, please do not show this whole thing. Mittens is gonna listen to "we, the people"?! Not bloody likely! He'll ask if our cookies came from 7/11, and we'll get to hear Mrs. Mittens talk about an unstiff spouse. EEEEEeeeeeeWWWWWWwwwwww!!! Mittens is bring up Staples again; let's chat again with folks just north of where I live about what Mittens did to THEIR business. Ted Kennedy did just that & won by doing so. Mittens brought up the damn gas price thing, too! AUGH! Yea, he thinks we're damn dumb, or he's hoping we're damn dumb. Rachel, I don't know how much more of this speech I can take. We must remind Mittens that "ObamaCare" is really "RomneyCare"; I hope President Obama begins to do just this...oh...TOMORROW. OK, I had to pause this $hit before I left a 6 1/2 - size shoe print in my computer monitor. Mittens ragged on this administration for giving money to the businesses of its buddies - like Mittens won't do the exact same thing if HE wins! Mittens wants this country to "live within its means." Well dear, not everyone has YOUR means, you a$$ hat! So, how $hitacular does Man on Dog have to feel about losing PA yet again?! I hope he's sobbing in his froth. Now, Mittens is questioning the patriotism of those who support President Obama? Good gawd, let's send him to the Caymens so he can be with his money.
{Something really interesting is happening with my live stream; I'm hearing lots of off - camera background talk! ;D}
"Decision 2012 Part Deux" - Steve Schmidt is in - studio & is actually kind of sort of impressed with Mittens' speech. But, Mr. Steve's kind of been in Mittens' corner since the beginning. Mittens is going to try to now separate himself from the bat$hit wing of the MENSA party - after being all over personhood amendments & $hit like that? Well, the "conservative wing" of the party will just go back to thinking Mittens is a MA liberal. Mr. Steve, a rising tide has not lifted all economic boats - not for a long damn time.
{And, here's that off - camera background noise again; someplace is playing $hit - kicker music. ;D That CAN'T be Mittens' place, can it?}
"Decision 2012 Part 3 {Sorry I don't know '3' in French! :D}" - President Obama was in NC today; he won there in 2008. I'm not sure this year will be a repeat; he sure as $hit won't win in my fair state again. 40,000 young NC Dems who voted in 2008 are no longer in the voter rolls. Gee, I wonder how that happened? *&^%$#@! Stafford Student loan rates will double by July 1 if no Congressional action is taken. GOBP Congress critters DO NOT want to discuss that even though Mittens has already claimed to be on board with NOT letting those interest rates double. Rachel is a little incorrect on this subject; students with loans at the current rate will keep their rate. However, new students going to college will face the increased rate if nothing is done. Oh, there's that damn Virginia Foxx. Mittens was anti - food stamps until he was for them tonight.
"The Spy Who Came In From the Code" - Each political party is blaming the other for high gas prices. How 'bout those speculators, boys & girls?! Iran's near the top of oil exporters in the world, and a whole lot of it funnels through 1 island that's been hacked with a computer virus. Oh good...$6/gallon gas tomorrow! Richard Clarke's in studio to talk war via the intertubz. He thinks we're already attacking Iran like this; he thinks Israel is, too. Just think of how much our infrastructure is dependent on the ethernets; we could be in a world of $hit with a pi$$ed off hacker. Congress is debating this issue this week? Oh goody. *&^%$#@! I actually heard about this story on NPR. Some folks actually DON'T want mandated tougher security measures because it's evil "government regulation." A lot of cyber attacks succeed, but they just steal things - not destroy them.
