Its a mixed bag.
Looks that Kill
Thanks for the non-answer, Revenant.
You didn't ask a question. :)
if I said I was good at it, then you petty people would get resentful
My response would be more like this.
And also, what blazing idiot thinks that Michelle Obama is the president?
I'll put $5 on "Joe Biden". What odds will you give me?
We know absolutely nothing here except that in a few seconds she was trying to eat, John Boehner nudged her about something, and she rolled her eyes. The eye roll may have nothing to do with him. She may have been trying to eat for quite some time and this was the first time she had an opportunity to finish it. She may have been sharing a moment with Boehner about something they were talking about moments before. When people have a camera on them for a whole day there are going to be moments where the person is going to look tired, exasperated or annoyed. She is simply being human. But, of course, this out of context video is proof of the horrible human being Michelle Obama is. I am sorry after watching this video several times I simply don't know enough to make any such judgment -- other than she was eating, John Boehner nudged her and she rolled her eyes.
Oh wow, this is worth a second page of comments? Rilly?
I didn't read through them all because Ritmo showed up and you know it's just crap at that point.
Carry on.
She looks like a tranny in the video, too.
Ok, then thanks for the non-explanation.
Should I add the cutesy little emoticon to that? -- :) --
Is that how you get along with others? Seems like a bit coy to me.
BTW, don't take Michelle's glance too seriously. It's good that you don't mind appropriating it, but I think there's a cultural disconnect you're experiencing from people who've been lied to and have to develop body language that indicates "been there, done that" without the interlocutor getting offended for being reminded that bullshit exists.
Ritmo, my dad died when I was 17, but Mom is still around at 80, and yes, she chooses to live in a trailer park, a very nice one, but still a trailer park, and she voted for Obama. I kid you not.
My Mom is no liberal, but I was visiting her a few weeks before the election and we watched a lot of Florida political commercials together. They almost convinced me to vote for him. That was some good bullshit they were throwing around down there.
So you and my Mom have a lot in common: you both don't know much about economics, you both like Obama, and you both enjoy me paying your bills. I do love her just a smidgen more though.
Thanks for the non-answer
then thanks for the non-explanation.
And now, a non-response!
I'm going for the non-trifecta.

Don't forget to give Shouting Tommy his due, Liz.
He gets very, vewwy angwy when people don't wecognize his gweatness.
He schoowed me so awesome-wy!
Seeing Red said...
BWAAAAAA Ritmo thinks piling on more subsidies will get the country moving.
Jobs program. We have them already.
Get out of the way, reduce regulation.
Command/central economies don't work.
That's history, we aren't special.
Ritmo has always been the classic example of how insular thinking couched as leftist trope makes him appear to be something he's not... Smart.

I'd never heard the eye-roll-and-head-shake described as some kind of secret code before. I like it.
What we don't have in common with you, Bag, must then be your flexibility of principle.
But maybe she's proud of you for that, too.
BTW...isn't "shade" a racist term for African Americans? Dog whistle?

Show me how your worldly perspective brings you to the conclusion that austerity in Europe worked, Beeyotch.
Use evidence.
Any non-answers, misinterpretations or lies will be interpreted to mean that your own smarts have been greatly exaggerated.

I wonder if the head tapping and belly rubbing at the same time would or could offer a sufficient example for "been there, done that."
"Michelle Obama's job is to make Boehner fell welcome and comfortable at a public event where she is the victor."
"FUCK THAT AND FUCK YOU!
Have his pussy-ass over to your own boring house and play those chincy show-tunes for him your fuckingself."
Where does this anger come from?
I think the whole thing is a non-event, but lets pretend for sake of argument that Michelle was as rude as her admirers want to believe she was, a public political event like this is not in any way analogous to having someone over to your house.
I wonder if the head tapping and belly rubbing at the same time would or could offer a sufficient example for "been there, done that."
It depends. For three-year olds or older kids?
BTW...isn't "shade" a racist term for African Americans?
Well, let me check the rules.
Let's see. It's a noun... and you voted for Romney. Yep, racist.
I wonder if the head tapping and belly rubbing at the same time would or could offer a sufficient example for "been there, done that."
Don't give it away! Whitey may be listening.
Where does this anger come from?
Because being a liar is one thing. Being unintelligent another. And being arrogant something else.
Shouting Thomas combines all three in such a way as to make himself absolutely satanic. There is nothing redeeming about him that any human can relate to.
I think the whole thing is a non-event, but lets pretend for sake of argument that Michelle was as rude as her admirers want to believe she was, a public political event like this is not in any way analogous to having someone over to your house.
As I said before, I think you're probably right.
I made the suggestion because Tommy took it upon himself to decide that Boehner was the aggrieved white man at the hands (eyes, really) of the really mean black lady.
I told him what he could go do about it, as a way to improve the situation.
And seeing how much he pretends to know about protocol, or even manners, really.

Eddumber, only if you threaten to shoot liberals in your basement again.
What I said was I wouldn't cry if they all went away, as it were.
No direct personal threats. You know it, I know it, and garage knows it because he's the one to whom I was speaking.
But, you want to call the Thought Police, I'd love to see you explain that crack about knowing where my computer is right after my email was hacked.
Where does this anger come from?
Anonymity. :)
Ina, Inga, whatever.
I can't keep track of all the lefty party lemmings here.
So, OK, it's Inga, and you successfully avoided having to show your complete lack of seriousness and thoughtfulness for, what, another 15 minutes?
OK, so 15 minutes are up, INGA. So, where's your answer, Inga?
Let's here it, Inga?
How do our kids prosper simultaneously paying for our stuff and the stuff they'll need, Inga?
How do we every pay it all back, Inga?
We're all waiting, Inga?
Whenever there's a coronation my British photoshopping mates go hyperkinetic. They're much more rude and sexually perverse than we kind and gentle and straight-laced Americans.
The scene on the balcony where they're all lined up and magnificent. Oi. The things they do to those photos. Royalty blowing each other, coming up for air, Royalty bumming each other, angelic children observing royal profanities of the most bizarre types imaginable, nudes, lizards, horses, hats, red uniforms. OLD nudes, royal incest, royal polygamy, royal paedos, royal transgenders, royal crossdressers and such.
And that's being nice about it.
Because being a liar is one thing. Being unintelligent another. And being arrogant something else.
And if you are all three, you may very well already be serving in Congress.
That was a wedding, but the same thing.
Where does this anger come from?
Anonymity. :)
Funny.
But it really comes from satanism.
No joke.
When Satan made Shouting Thomas, he had nothing but rock to work with. He used the lower extremities of a large statue, and touched it in several places.
The "pants" on the statue began to wiggle, and underneath the moving parts one could see little bulges, like mice.
Satan stood back and let these little wiggling mice-like objects move about the statue, until their movement broke it apart. Each "mouse" was a new Shouting Thomas, shat out from the piece of rock that once housed it.
This is the story of how Satan created Shouting Thomas.
Hehe, keep wondering Edutcher. Ever heard of Anonymous? Maybe it was them.
And if you are all three, you may very well already be serving in Congress.
Then do the "right thing", disband your party, and promise to never again run for national elected office if that's what you really believe!
Enough already, God dammit! Stop running for office if all you can make of it is the self-fulfilling prophecy of how corrupt all Republican legislators are! You are admitting it right here! Every day!
Stop running. Disband the party. Re-form as something that you can make you proud of your service.
Thanks

This intrigues me, edutcher because I know of a couple few instances of Althouse blog commenters who either had email accounts hacked or were threatened by Blogger and had to give up a cell phone number.
Please tell us more. There is something about Inga I've never trusted. I'd like to air it.
Aw right.

Feel free to use my absence to knock me, while talking genteelly to and about each other in meaningless ways.

See, I can't even spell capable. But hey it's kinda cool to be a suspicious character.
Oh poor poor Edutcher. He's been beat up lately, Althouse whacked him a few times lately. Now he thinks I hacked his email account.
He needs a hug.

The hapless Republicans you spend your time pretending not to be would certainly notice.
Credentials matter very little in advertising.

There's a lot of BS artists out there, even from Harvard.

That was not a "whack"... you you... exaggeration incarnation.
Althouse pointed to her self deprecating humor, that was all.

Well, the latter in any case could certainly be a Republican -- conservative in any meaningful sense, of course. And not necessarily glibertarian.
Most Republicans nowadays would like to pretend to be like Paul Ryan. He probably is more of a glibertarian.
The funny thing about your tribe is that, wail as you might about welfare and the like, your faction cannot survive without political welfare.
You rely on the political hand-outs of conservatives and, when it suits you, liberals, to gain any sort of political traction.
It is time that you learned to become self-sufficient. Stop being a scab-parasite on the body politic. Pull yourselves up by your political bootstraps and make a stand.
And then prepare to fall flat on the face of politics.
Self-fulfilling, right?

He looked quite sheepish.
There was nothing nasty or vulgar about Michelle Obama in this clip. Boehner told a joke, watch his chin while Obama guffaws and Michelle eye rolls.
Boehner intended to cause the reactions in both Mr. and Mrs. Obama.
To me, this made the FLOTUS seem more feminine.

chick, about 2 weeks ago, I found a number of messages that someone had hacked into my contacts list and used my email address to mail a link to some file.
Considering this includes not only Ann and Meade, but business contacts and friends of both mine and The Blonde (I got several WTF emails about it), I got in contact with AT&T and we've been able to secure my account.

Lots of comments. They say brevity is the soul of wit. Maybe not, but you can read through this whole thread in a few minutes and that's worth something. Does an ambiguous eye roll truly merit this much attention?....For the record, I think Shouting Thomas truly excells at Ritmo abuse. He's got a real flair for it....Michelle's OK. She's gone over the top in her expenses, but that's what happens when you leave a woman in proximity of an unlimited household budget. I like Michelle better than Nancy Reagan so my negative feelings are not due to political bias.....Laura Bush is the only first lady I would have liked to have married.
I've not heard the idiom throw shade before. It just looks like a good ol' side-eye to me. Maybe with an eye-roll thrown in to boot.
I wonder if Boehner had to buy a ticket to the luncheon.
And Edutcher do you really believe anyone here gives enough of a rats ass about you to hack into your account?
My, how you elevate yourself here at Althouse. Althouse asked you today why you even read this blog, lol.

Throw shade is not the same thing. Look it up, Lookitupers, I'm not so nice to link anymore.
The libs love it, I see. I've read the comments here and there and there and there. That is the level of discourse you like and that is what you will have.
Forever.
But I don't want to talk about our so-called First Lady's poor table manners.
Washington, ghetto, whatever.
I'd rather talk about my own ghetto rudeness.
This was when I first met Dr. Fred. I was invited to his house and the dinner table looked much like this. Triple crystal. Water, white wine, red wine. A veritable forest of glittering crystal. One wrong move and BLAM they'd all go over like dominos. Big table. Twelve guests. Waiter.
The radio was playing classical music through the stereo and they're running Beethoven's 7th. My all-time favorite. Dr. Fred who does not know me says that is Beethoven's 5th.
I should probably admit that I looked like a child dressed up as adult in a jacket and tie. I was twenty-one but I'm ashamed to say I looked fifteen or maybe even fourteen or so.
So when I said, "Pardon me please but I'm certain of this, I'm not comfortable being contrarian but that is the 7th." And he glared at me like, ew, you little mutt. He could not believe I could have such temerity and be so wrong. And said so.
All the guests looked at me like I'm a perfect little shit.
The music continued to play and I was most uncomfortable, but I cut no rude glances, did not have my elbows on the table, did not wipe my mouth on my sleeve, did not chew loudly, or eat like an animal and most of all did not brew.
The announcer came on, his voice lower than our voices lively chattering across the stretched out table, and Fred goes, "hush hush hush"
Now all eyes are on my diminutive self.
... and that completes this evening's presentation of Beethoven's seventh symphony, Cleveland philharmonic orchestra, George Szell conductor. And I sat there with my mouth shut and held tilted down and looked at the point between my own eyebrows.
The thing is, Beethoven was one of Fred's big deals. He fancied himself expert. He was not to be contradicted.
That was one of the things that created a halo effect upon me. Look it up, Lookituppers, it's a thing. From then on there was little I could do to convince Fred that I'm actually a bit thick and ponderous on the uptake. Nothing I did, that was stupid mattered to disturb the first impression and everything I did that was clever reinforced it. Through the years. Although from that moment on he would call me a dumbass directly, he told different people otherwise. He seized upon every little thing to emphasize my stupidity but privately marveled at things like Beethoven's 7th that followed. So that when he died, all that came back to me from surprisingly remote sources. I'm still getting it.

Chip is right... I didn't have to look it up... I recalled it.
I can't think of any possible scenario that makes Mrs Obama's eye roll gracious or classy. There are several that make it understandable. In any case the fact of it speaks for itself. I think she'll have reason to regret it, just like most people regret moments when their behavior was inappropriate.
If that's what you mean, it was also directed at pm317.
Ann misconstrued my remark for a shot when I was only teasing. As I noted.

Hey Mrs. Blond, your hubby needs a hug.
You know, I'd rather dine with Michelle Obama than Inga.
Hell, I'd be happy to cook for Michelle Obama, She looks like she enjoys good food.
And I bet my roast/braised goose is better than Inga's.
Well, I bet my chocolate truffles are better than Palladian's. And I'd rather have dinner with Whoresoftheinternet than Palladian.
The first lady eats with her mouth open. Maybe only when power eating.
And I'd rather have dinner with Whoresoftheinternet than Palladian.
Unlike whoresoftheinternet, I'd never use the word "nigger" at the dinner table. Or anywhere else, for that matter.
Yes, he's a brute, but he's not a bitch.
Why can't Michelle show the same graciousness as Laura Bush?
Because...SHUT UP!...and...RACISM!
Yes, he's a brute, but he's not a bitch.
And Michelle Obama is not a cunt. :)
Bizarre shit.
I think Inga long ago forgot even what she was fighting about here. Ritmo never knew what he was talking about from the start.
Or else, Inga and Ritmo have just spent several hours arguing that the First Lady has every right to behave like a vengeful spoiled brat at a public event at which she is the host.
I don't even know if that's what Ms. Obama did, but that's a hell of an argument, guys.
OK, maybe I'd rather have dinner with NotquiteunBuckley than Whoresoftheinternet.
Yes, she did a great eye roll and head shake, good for her. She should've told him to go to hell.
Such a gracious winner. So classy. So Inga.
Oh hell I'm having fun now ST.
I might even trade recipes with Palladian.
Who wouldn't like to have dinner with NotquiteunBuckley?
I've never made a chocolate truffle. I've done lots of chocolate desserts, but only because other people like it. I'm not a chocolate fan.
Oh how short a memory we have...
Carla Bruni (the then French FL) asked Michelle Obama about her role as the wife to the President of the United States. (as reported from a Carla Bruni book)
The First Lady allegedly replied, “Don’t ask! It’s hell. I can’t stand it!”
Remember the cutting of the eyes?
If this is when the cameras are around...
You told me you liked chocolate peanut butter cups on election night Palladian.
****She should've told him to go to hell.
There's that lizard brain reaction. Today should be a day of joy for you Obama droids, but no... its a go to hell day, just like all the others.
You're a pretty twisted person.
You told me you liked chocolate peanut butter cups on election night Palladian.
Oh, well there are exceptions. I think the key is pairing chocolate with something salty. I think the saltiness of the peanut butter is a good accompaniment.
Chocolate, somewhat surprisingly, goes well with bacon and chilis.
It IS a day of joy for us, why wouldn't it be? Do you think that a fake controversy over a eye roll and head shake would take away the great joy of today?
Wow, you folks think that you have have that much power over us?
Yes Palladian and sea salt.
George Stephanopolous is trying his best, America.
Wow, you folks think that you have have that much power over us?
Not as much power as you think Michelle has to send people to hell.
But hey.. we are only half way though his presidency..
Yes Palladian and sea salt.
Excellent. I make slightly salty chocolate chip cookies with grey sea salt.
Why in the world is the election of any government official a "day of joy?"
This might be where you're experiencing some confusion, Inga.
Mmmmm, mmm, see Palladian, we can be civil if we try:)
ST, well joy might be too strong a word.
You rely on the political hand-outs of conservatives and, when it suits you, liberals, to gain any sort of political traction.
Wait, am I a libertarian again now? Last I heard I was pretending not to be a Republican. :)
And then prepare to fall flat on the face of politics.
Am I politics in this sentence? Or am I falling flat on somebody else's face? I think the metaphor kinda got away from you here, dude.
Bedtime, nighty nite foodies, crybabies and all the rest of ya.

I never figured out why you let some creeps slide, though. Mail-Order Bride Thomas would probably commit rape if he could get away with it. There really is nothing that he wouldn't take by force if he thought he could get away with it.
This just proves to me again that in these people, in a fair world, would barely be qualified to mop a run-of-the-mill shit house.

I'll second that. FLOTUS wrecked the mood.

I get the impression that FLOTUS may have been eye-signally her kids--were they seated in front of her? The kind of look she gave was very teenager, regardless of cause. I could see that as acceptable behavior around the West Wing dinner table. Maybe her problem is that she needs to get out more.
Whats this, threats of violence from Inga?
"Again, you never met me, thank goodness because I'd have to kick you swiftly in your lilltle nuts"
Rut roh, threatening bodily harm. Can you give me the number to those internet police you are always threatening to call on everyone else?

Weirdo.
Ritmo, ST wouldn't ever get close enough to rape me.
But can't you admit that he's an out-and-out creep with a raging sense of entitlement?
That shouldn't be hard to agree on. He's a total sicko who thinks the world owes him a more favorable opinion and whatever type of service he asks for.
This much is evident about that cancer of a man. At least agree with me on that.
Ritmo, I agree that he has an entitlement issue, but he can be reasonable at times unlike the creepy Pantsload.
Go tell Ms. Obama about your thoughts on blacks and crime.
Do we even have their thoughts on blacks and crime? Bill Cosby is more articulate on this matter. POTUS seems reluctant to agree or least to bring it up. Instead, he floats plans to take more guns away from white people.
lol. Ugly, loud, rude, stupid affirmative action negress acts like ugly, loud, rude, stupid affirmative action negress.

Oh lord, he's gonna take all the guns away, running in circles with hands flapping in the air.
Chickie, the sky is not falling.
Ritmo, I agree that he has an entitlement issue, but he can be reasonable at times unlike the creepy Pantsload.
Like a slaver, he thinks he owns me. He has this humungous sense of resentment every time he sees me come anywhere near this comments section, and it's disgusting. The way he projects everything onto me that he resents in himself is the most transparently, childish, unreflective evil I've ever come across.
There is something not only wrong with him, but disgustingly wrong. You realize his hatred of Michelle Obama has to do with her being black, don't you?
That's all this is about to him. Resentment is one thing, but he has it so irreversibly bad in him that he deflects it in the most God-awful disgusting ways.
Yes Ritmo, I'm afraid you are quite right.
Do we even have their thoughts on blacks and crime? Bill Cosby is more articulate on this matter.
Than Shouting Thomas? Everyone is more articulate than Shouting Thomas on this matter. A chihuahua is more articulate than Shouting Thomas on these sorts of things. On anything, really. But definitely on these things.
Shouting Thomas is nothing but a raging bigot, called on it by Seven Machos. He can't ever bring himself to saying that perhaps he was insensitive, let alone inarticulate, because for him there is some sort of original sin committed by blacks (and women) against his image of himself and nearly his every comment on here drips with the resentment that this ridiculous and disgusting fixation of his leads him to.
Nowhere good. Stick to Cosby, Obama and anyone else and leave the idiot Thomas far away from anything having to do with anything social in nature. I'm not convinced he's not a total sociopath.

Well, I did say "floats plans" and no, I don't expect him to succeed alone.
I don't expect him to succeed at all.
He got the photo op and the media tongue-bath already. There isn't much reason to actually pursue gun control as an agenda. If he cared about the issue at all he'd have tackled it in his first term. :)
This comment thread is undoubtedly the pissing contest of the year so far. But it's early.
LOL, OK that was weird.
Obama seemed to get a kick out of Boehner's point.
I notice this about a lot of couples. The guy has the tact and the gal has little or none. The guy is the one that is usually deferential and the woman is the one rolling her eyes or making the snide comments, often to the persons face that she has contempt for.
And the husband/boyfriend has to reign her in.
Ive noticed this with my mother, with my various gf's, with my friends various gf's and with my friends wives.
Not always, mind you. But enough of the time to notice the trend. Women are tactless bitches!
Afraid that someone wants to take guns away = Crazy.
Afraid that someone wants to take birth control away = Sane.
Uh huh.
Shouting Thomas: 3

@ritmo: Don't expect anyone to partake in your trial in absentia.
I'll tell you what my initial problem with FLOTUS: it was her statement about being proud of her country for the first time in her adult lifetime.
First, what counts as her adult lifetime? Can she so summarily dismiss the first Bush, Reagan, and the Clinton eras --everything included therein? Nothing there at all? The occasion of unfortunate 2008 remark was the coalescence of the DNC around her husband. Her remark tells me that she either harbors deep racial resentments which she proudly wears (I'm proud for the first time because Barack is black), or she selfishly applauded the selection of her husband--and nothing much more. Which is it?

Chick - your battle is a losing one. It's a lost one. The country's changed, Republicans can't deal with it. And then there's Thomas... Raging, hateful, resentful of anything.
Go nurture your fears of how white minority status will somehow be a disaster together. It's boring, it's pointless, it goes nowhere.
But feel free to keep telling Republicans to run on it. That, and the whole rape issue that they ran on as well.
As I said, people who expect entitlement have trouble understanding the fall-out of these things. You, I can understand because you've said you have a condition that makes stereotypes easy and understanding people harder.
But a sociopath I give less leeway.
If you want him for yourself, though, he's yours. Go pontificate with Thomas on how the White Man can better defend himself or whatever.
Good night.

Uh huh.
HEAR HEAR! Im sure that was directed towards Inga, and if not, it should be.
Just how many guns are in circulation? Just how would they be confiscated?

what part of assault weapons ban aren't you getting. Wouldn't that end legal purchasing of assault weapons were it to pass?
Like a slaver, he thinks he owns me.
Pity the man who has to pay property tax on Ritmo.
"Thomas would probably commit rape if he could get away with it. There really is nothing that he wouldn't take by force if he thought he could get away with it."
Either Ritmo thinks he's God, seeing into the hearts of men or...
"The way he projects everything onto me that he resents in himself is the most transparently, childish, unreflective evil I've ever come across."
Or that.
Raging, hateful, resentful of anything.
Hmmm... hmmm...
Somebody's been raging, hateful and resentful in the comments above.
Who could it be?
"Synova, you ignore all the attempts to pass Personhood Bills. Even Father Fox admits it would end legal abortion."
Did I say abortion?
How many MORE fucking assault weapons does America need?
Insanity. Good night Irene.

OK, Synova, birth control, who is afraid of anyone taking birth control away? No one that I know.

It's a woman's body.
It's a gun.
Know the difference?
We just had a whole crazy season of the "War on Women"... and we're supposed to believe that wasn't paranoid fantasy. Not wanting to pay for pills equals taking them away? Crazy land talk about bans and what not when no one was the least interested in imposing anything on someone else's vagina. "Not paying" = "banning".
But now, while the rhetoric is couched in terms of common sense regulation only on "assault" weapons, it's almost always illuminated by talk and anecdote about how "I'm a crazy person and can't be trusted with a pistol or I'd shoot myself or get mad and pop off at those around me" which is a clear call for comprehensive bans.
But no... crazy run around flapping your hands paranoia.
Be honest. The number of people killed by "assault" rifles is a fraction of the small number killed by rifles at all, and banning them would DO nothing at all to solve the supposed pressing problem that must be solved. There is no rational reason to ban them, but they are the one thing that it might be *possible* to ban, at least in some areas. It's a weak point and political opportunity.
But the desire is, as Piers Morgan likes to point out, to get over our silly fascination with firearms and our silly belief that we've got a right to have them.
Michelle Obama is the new Sarah Palin, tables turned.
Althouse take note.
"OK, Synova, birth control, who is afraid of anyone taking birth control away? No one that I know."
I was looking up molon labe T-shirts and there are birth control molon labe T-shirts.
And certainly you were *here* when the whole Democratic Convention was dedicated to defending women against the mean conservatives who wanted to take away their right to birth control?
Or did you imagine that Sandra Fluke was talking about abortions.
How... odd.
That's where you make your mistake in understanding the war on women Synova, the threat was not the taking away of birth control, EVER. The very real threat was Personhood
Laws.
Sandra Fluke was advocating for free birth control, she was not expressing fear of it being taken away.
Synova -
Bans or payments, it doesn't matter. Health care will become a right and women's health will be a part of it. That means gyno services.
The problem is that the zygote-person issue is failing Republicans. They've twisted themselves into pretzels trying to defend the idea of rape as a life-giving force! I guess that makes it good... a cell came of it! But the people disagree.
They've lost on this issue - you can complain that Obama boxed them in with the rape talk, whatever. It's done. It backfired. Hurt their image and made them look like primitive dinosaurs.
Our politics is simply moving in a more rational direction, away from the Rovian wedge-issue framing. This may or may not happen with gun lovers and the anti-gun safety crowd, we don't know.
But quit getting philosophical. The Republicans have had it easy for years, and now some common sense and reason is starting to win at the ballot box.
I'd expect it to continue, if I were you. Just a heads-up.
Good luck. Good night.
Good night Ritmo.
Good night -
Fluke was insisting that having someone else pay for birth control was a Right, and that a third party not paying for it was the same as denying access.
The whole War on Women thing was an insane fantasy that people took seriously.
Or maybe what you're saying is that everyone just pretended to take it seriously? Sure whatever.
But turning around and saying that those concerned about gun rights being infringed are paranoid without basis is ignoring that no one is particularly shy about stating what they'd prefer to happen, which is to completely control access to any sort of firearm. The Brady group doesn't give high scores to states that have "common sense" limitations on "assault rifles". The columnists bravely confessing the danger they pose to themselves, their neighbors or anyone who cuts them off in traffic are not asking to be saved by government from the temptation of an "assault rifle".
I'm confident that anyone who hasn't rushed legislation through already, isn't going to. But that says nothing at all about people's clearly expressed desires.
Believing people *want* to take your guns away = sane.
Thanks, Mary Beth.
Maybe she needs a big gold chain with a giant pendant of the presidential seal done up in gold.
That is such a great movie.
I never thought I'd I'd see that movie come true in my lifetime.
I'll pay for Fluke's $1000 a year birth control expense when she pays for my fire arms.
Ok - one last compromise proposition:
Guns that fire little cellular zygote-people projectiles.
No safety restrictions or requirements.
The end.
Ritmo said to me: You, I can understand because you've said you have a condition that makes stereotypes easy and understanding people harder.
Not sure what to make of that. I suspect projection, but it may have been based on something we said between each other elsewhere. In any case, I'll hang onto it and try and throw it back in your face if I get a chance.
"I'll pay for Fluke's $1000 a year birth control expense when she pays for my fire arms."
If, when something is a Right, that means you get it even if you can't pay for it... then it logically follows that the government must provide my "arms" to bear.
Don't read too much into it el Pollo Rotundo (I kid). You can hold on to a grievance if you like, but I've nothing against you. I did get out of hand when you got in the way of a fight with an out-and-out, well, I'll leave the descriptions aside for now. But just trust me - I'll address your concerns about Michelle Obama's long-ago remarks sometime down the road, just as long as you don't find resentful people to inform you about race and class in the meantime. Suffice it to say, what you've heard about Michelle Obama hating on you or seeking to enslave you on account of your skin color has been greatly exaggerated. She's just happy to live in a country that's proved it's bigger than its bigotry. Many people feel that way. Nothing to resent here unless you resent that.
Good night.
Nice salon you run here, Professor!
I've seen better manners at the Milwaukee Outlaws' clubhouse

Its on!

Yeah, one is a right laid out in the constitution and which states it shall not be infringed.
And the other isn't stated anywhere except as a penumbra. Which means it's nowhere to be found.
It's a woman's body. It's a gun.

For starters, the second one's useful for self-defense. The first one -- well, judging from rape statistics, not so useful for self-defense.
I guess this means we are going to be all up in Michelle's uterus somehow.

Also one right, which is stated absolutely nowhere in the consitution leads to the death of more than a million babies a year.
The other right involves guns.
IF you took all the deaths from assault rifles in crimes or in school shootings for the last ten years and added them together it wouldn't even one year of babies killed through abortion.
It's not the Jared Loughtners of the world that babies have to fear its pregnant women in general. Yes, there are those that will shoot up schools and we should rightly find means to protect schools from their violence. But it doesn't hold a candle to the amount of carnage done in the name of womens rights.
Nice salon you run here, Professor!
I recommend repeating it a third time, in case we missed the first two. :)
