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.

Roll bloat – correcting another oversight

by @ 15:55. Filed under The Blog.

I should have done this last week after meeting Chad in my bonzai run to Minneapolis, and especially after Shoebox did a segment on his show, but I’m extremely forgetful. In any case, running into him again out here at the State Policy Network annual meeting jogged my memory, and it’s past time to add Grizzly Groundswell to the ever-growing roll. I’m sure I’ll be adding more tomorrow after SamSphere.

The Morning Scramble/Open Thread Thursday – 9/11/2008

As Shoebox said, “Never forget!”

Since I’m on the road (specifically at the State Policy Network 16th Annual Meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona), I won’t have the ability to keep up with the list of tributes. Fortunately, silent E started the list (don’t forget to read his tribute, and he’ll keep up. I’ll dispense with the usual summaries today, and just point you to the tributes, rememberances, and thoughts he didn’t catch yet (I’ll warn the sensitive that some may be on the firebrand side; honestly, I believe they have a place as well because this is a war of survival that was driven here 7 years ago today).

Do read as many of the tributes of the 2,996 that died at the World Trade Center as you can.

Do We Have A Vaccine?

Someone alert the Center for Disease Control!   There’s been a massive outbreak of Hoof in Mouth disease that has rapidly spread throughout the Democrat party!

The first reported case was of course, this doosey:

Wednesday morning, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) made this statement on the House floor:

Later Wednesday morning was the most recent documented case, when South Carolina’s Democrat Party chairwoman, Carol Fowler, was quoted in an article on Politico.com as saying:

John McCain had chosen a running mate “whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion."

By the way, Carol Fowler is the wife of the star of this gem from a couple of weeks back:

Of the three, it appears that Carol Fowler may yet recover from her illness as later in the day she was quoted as saying:

“I personally admire and respect the difficult choices that women make everyday, and I apologize to anyone who finds my comment offensive. I clumsily was making a point about people in South Carolina who may vote based on a single issue. Whether it’s the environment, the economy, the war or a woman’s right to choose, there are people who will cast their vote based on a single issue. That was the only point I was attempting to make.”

The average incubation period for Hoof and Mouth disease is 3-8 days. That would suggest that we will likely see additional cases over the next week as Obama and the Democrats try to figure out how the hell this happened!

I know it’s not polite to discuss the health or physical stamina of the Presidential candidates, but it appears that Barack Obama’s disease could be serious. In fact, it looks like the case is severe enough that he may not survive, politically speaking. Unfortunately for Joe Biden, Obama’s demise is likely to come before he’s been elected to office.
