No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

The Morning Scramble/Open Thread Thursday - 7/17/2008

by @ 9:11 on July 17, 2008. Filed under Open Thread Thursday, The Morning Scramble.

Let’s see if I can keep this one short because it is Open Thread Thursday…

  • Ace and the Morons break out the funny to help out the late-night talkers with their drought of Obamination jokes (I do have to put a content warning on this; we are talking about Morons).
  • John McCormack pins a few on Barack Obama (literally).
  • Curt found no principles from Obama. I must disagree that there is no history though; while there isn’t much, it is of a far-left nature.
  • Byron York wonders why Obama feels at such a disadvantage to John McCain despite a $52 million month.
  • Jim Geraghty answers that; the DNC is burning through its meager funds as fast as they come in. Bonus math - the Obama campaign spent $27 million in June.
  • Jim Hoft found that the Obamination supporters are practicing the Chicago Way, Mob Edition, on the die-hard Clinton supporters. Why am I not surprised they’re resorting to violence? Could it be that Obama is a Chicago politician, or is it that they’re hard-core lefties?
  • Lawhawk identifies the word Jesse Jackson used in the part of the infamous tape not aired yet (again, a content warning is in effect; it’s not the sanitized n***** you’ll see elsewhere).
  • Enough Obamination; let’s go to the Envirowhacko Watch - Ace caught Chuck Schumer wanting more drilling…in Saudi Arabia. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe Chuckie said that Saudi oil is funding Al Qaeda.
  • Fred Keller lists all the products that come from a 42-gallon barrel of oil. Guess Harry Reid’s sick of all those products as well.
  • Van Helsing found mathematical proof that there is no such thing as “Global Warming”. Algore Goracle was last seen with a flamethrower in the Arctic.
  • Allahpundit is impressed that Newt Gingrich got 1.3 million signatures on his Drill Now petition to Congress. I will take the time now to remind my Wisconsin readers to sign Phil Williamson’s Drill Now petition going to the Wisconsin delegation in DC.
  • JammieWearingFool caught Algore Goracle baying at the moon on energy. Question for the Goracle - if you want to use clean coal, why did the guy you shared the ticket with twice lock up all the clean coal?
  • Paul Socha notes the US Forest Service wants to shut down 55% of the roads in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest.
  • Jim Hoft proves it’s not about the environment, but about sending us back to the 16th Century, for the envirowhackos.
  • Mark Heuring has the title of the day - “The Forecast Calls for Pain”. Actually, that’s an understatment.
  • Do I cut things off here, or do I continue? There’s too much in the feeder, so let’s clear it out. Moron Pundit explains his theory of just war. It tracks well with what I’ve said before; wars end only when one side suffers enough death dealt with sufficient horror that it gives up rather than continue to suffer horrific death.
  • Dad29 laces into Jim Doyle for his simplistic opposition to a temporary halt to the gas tax that feeds the state’s transportation personal slush fund.
  • American Pundit caught Yahoo acting like Google and recaptioning an AFP photo for leftist propaganda purposes. Guess I must have missed the Yahoo-Google merger.
  • John Derbyshire bemoans the coming application of Title IX to college science and math programs. I wonder which programs will become the analogues to the UW baseball team and Marquette wrestling team.
  • James T. Harris blasts McCain for kissing the NAA(L)CP ring.
  • Jeff Emanuel has the rest of the story on the 9 American soldiers killed while fending off a massive, coordinated attack on their outpost.
  • GayPatriotWest caught The News Organization That Cannot Be Quoted cooking the dispatches again.
  • Michael Rubin questions the wisdom of negotiating with those that want to kill you regardless of the result of said negotiations.
  • Charlie Sykes notes the censorship of history is alive and well on college campuses. It matters not that the book in question praises the defeat of the KKK; the fact that it mentions and pictures the KKK is enough to set off the ninnies.
  • Ed Morrissey notes Mitt Romney is clearing the decks of $45 million in loans to himself, presumably so he can be a more-viable candidate for VP. More likely, he’s trying to maximize cash flow to active campaigns (unlike a certain ‘Rat ex-contender).

Sorry about the length; there’s just so much material. Still, I know I missed some good stuff. Let me know what I missed.
