  1. Is it possible to bring the word “scum” back into common usage? Just to make it easier to, you know, point out scum?
    Scum. They’re scum.
    Smote them.

  2. I think he might have thought he was at the audition for some sort of very hardcore metal band. Or possibly he was having a seizure. Or possibly he’s the world’s biggest d@*(#nozzle.

  3. Where’s a bolt of lightning when it’s needed? Just one zap… and then a second…

  4. It’s a matter of time before somebody gets ‘hurt’ to put it mildly…Was Lee Harvey Oswald a Right winger? How about the one that did Kennedy’s brother?
    Let’s pray it does not happen but if we were to create our own ‘neighborhood watch’ of sorts, my time would not be spent on surveilling the TEA party that’s for sure.

  5. My husband and I are about to test the “tolerance” of the left. We live in a solidly NDP/Liberal area, and we’re getting a CONSERVATIVE sign for our front porch: it has to be there and not on our fence, because last election, our fence sign was defaced. On the porch, at least anyone intent on nefarious—illegal—plans will have to trespass on our property to do the deed. Let’s see what happens.

  6. lookout – ever walked dogs? Every morning? During an election campaign? I have. (No, I didn’t. But I was tempted. BTW, whatever happened to all the public garbage cans?)

  7. They are in Chicago Mamba. Seriously, cleanest city I ever saw. Garbage cans every 40 or 50 feet. I even field stripped my ciggarette butts instead of just dropping them on the ground. Felt for sure that some litter police dog would come fly out of the Sears Tower if I had dropped it.

  8. The idiots showing up with vuvezellas really polished their image…..just like it burnished South Africa’s image during the World Cup….

    Shades of Singapore. My son just returned from a conference in Chicago; his description and photos do not in any way jibe with my preconceived notions of that city, even though I visited Chicago years ago. Thuggery aside, the city sounds as though it would almost rival New York for tourism.

  10. Drove through Chi-town a few times over the years. Its a crap-hole, same as Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Noo Yawk, blah blah blah. Large Eastern cities, all the same. Couple of nice shopping districts surrounded by miles of no-man’s land. Better not make a wrong turn.
    I solve the problem by gassing up before I hit the Chicago suburbs and never leaving the highway until I’m out the other side.
    These cities are all crap-holes because they are infested by the kind of individuals we see in the videos shouting down Sarah Palin.
    Here in Arizona you don’t see much of that. Its because here, if some schmuck says “I will knock that camera out of your hand!” to some lady like Ann Althouse, she’s likely to stick a .45 in his face and say “BRING IT”.
    I know you guys think I’m kidding, but I’m not. I saw a beggar at a stop light a couple days ago. First one I’ve seen in 5 weeks. One of those goofs with the “need food” sign. The kind that knock on your window in Toronto. In NYC he’d be blocking traffic until somebody paid him to get off the road.
    Buddy was not knocking on the windows of the cars, let me tell you. He was staying OFF the road, well away from the cars, very carefully NOT making any move toward any car that the driver didn’t have a hand out the window with a dollar bill in it.
    Because otherwise some nervous type might just PLUG him right through their window. And you could tell by watching him move, he was thinking about it. An armed society really is a -polite- society.
    I love Arizona. Its frickin’ awesome.
