It’s past time for one. It would have to be pretty big, though, after the past few decades. It would include not just Schumer, but Dodd and Frank, and Corzine.
I’d also like to bring back the stocks. Pelting would be allowed, as long as it was restricted to rotten fruit and eggs.
…against the team with no plan. I recall when Turbotax Timmy Geithner said, “…we don’t have a plan, but we know we don’t like yours.”
We’ll see how trying to beat something with nuthin’ works out for them this fall.
I’m just guessing that this gang will not turn out to be Tea Partiers. In fact, I’ll bet there will be ties to both the Democrat Party and Occupy. There will be arrest records, after all.
Is it really surprising that when you underprice a commodity, the supply dries up? Another sign of the popping bubble of academia.
This is about what I would have expected. Even after (or perhaps because of) the temple shooting, they’re unlikely candidates to promote gun control.
Some thoughts on our so-called and misnamed “elites” from VDH.
OK, we all knew on Saturday that this was inevitable.
And speaking of Hitler parodies, Day By Day is doing its annual fundraiser.
Isn’t it amusingly stupid how he is unable to write the phrase “commercial crew” without using the word “subsidy”?
What’s funniest of all, of course, is that he seems to actually believe that space policy will be a significant, or even debated issue in this election.
[Afternoon update]
Awwwww, isn’t that cute? Mark still fantasizes both that I have a “chain,” and that I ever “leap the length” of it. It seems to be one of his favorite expressions. That’s the autism, rather than the Tourette’s.
[Update on Tuesday morning]
I know what metaphors are, Mark. I was simply pointing out that your attempt at it was insane, and bore no resemblance to reality.
Check out the comments over at my National Review piece. It’s almost as though some of the commenters are going out of their way to prove my thesis, by engaging in exactly the ignorant, straw-man behavior that opponents of the new policy have been for going on three years now. I love the notion that because I correct misstatements of fact, I am “attacking” the commenter. I especially love the latest insane redefinition of “subsidy” — that because SpaceX didn’t reinvent every single wheel in its vehicles, instead building on technology developed over the past decades, that it has been “subsidized” by NASA for decades.
Roger Simon writes what I was thinking when I saw the list of “moderators” for this fall’s “debates.”
What would happen if Romney/Ryan played hardball and said, “You know, ABCBSCNNPBS? Here’s the deal. If you want us to debate on your airwaves or cablewaves, we’ll do it on condition that the candidates choose the topics. The only thing we need a moderator for is to time things. If you don’t want to do that deal, we’ll look for another network, and we’ll point out to the public exactly why we’re doing so. We’ll let the White House try to explain why it needs a biased moderator.”
