Finally Some Good News
Amidst all the economic doom and gloom, finally some great news.
The luminous and wise Governor of Alaska warns that the U.S. might be nearing a “Great Depression.”
By my read, we must now be totally out of the woods!
Meanwhile, the best bumpersticker of the week. Saw it this afternoon on the Hollywood Freeway:

I still say that mcCain’s desire to postpone the debate is to get Sarah off the hook and avoid a moose in the headlights moment – again.

Possible evidence to back up Randy’s claim. Anyone see the recent Couric-Palin interview? I don’t think it would be fair to call it a disaster, but…

That a slight on my great country, in which all youth grow up stick-in-hand. Just because Palin and friends want to mimic the land of Lanny McDonald mustaches doesn’t mean you have to associate hockey with such folly.

Jcummings: Hear, hear!
Comity!

That sticker totally sucks. I am hardly a Republican, but hockey appeals to Democrats as well. Go Boston Bruins!!!
September 25th, 2008 at 8:57 am
…in fact, Palin herself really doesn’t know much about hockey.

Oh, c’mon guys, it’s still baseball season. Dodgers clinch today!

Bet there’s plenty of Macomb county voters who think that McCain trying to avoid the debate harkens back to Claude Lemeiux’s ‘turtling’ versus McCarty

Obama’s got the political ‘puck control’ skills of Stevie Y.

I’ve seen some Democrats for McCain and Women for McCain yard signs. They must be WINOs.

Oh our rivalry with Colorado. What ever happened to that. It was so much fun. I think now we’re supposed to hate the Ducks. Or are we over that now too? (Go Wings!)
September 25th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
Damn right jc. It’s also a slur on hockey, still one of the great spectator sports. Ah, those UW games and pretzels with mustard. . .
I think whenever I see McCain now I’ll start chanting SIEVE! SIEVE! SIEVE!

So will he show up on Oxford Tomorrow night?

No, the best bumper sticker would be the sentiment expressed on a protest sign snapped at an anti bail out rally on Wall Street.
The photo punctuated Natasha Vargas Cooper’s debate blog.
JUMP, YOU FUCKERS is the logical successor, for the 21st Century, to Che’s image.
Venceremos!

The guy who answered the phone at the Washington Post’s City Desk, this morning, when I called to protest that not one American paper had the guts to put the anti bail out protest sign on their front cover–but the Sydney Herald, in Australia did–told me: “irony is over most people’s [American's] heads”.
David’s post seems to confirm this piece of anthropological minutiae, yet again.

Good stuff. I can’t help but returning every day!

Your website is by far the greatest source given the subjects discussed. I frequently see myself returning back and trying to find additional stuff. Not really sure where you come across all this material, but it really is fantastic. Many thanks!
