I can’t sleep, so I may as well let this (relatively-) small Scramble fly…

- Jim Geraghty found the official Palestinian artist of the Obama campaign. Let’s play, “What doesn’t belong?”
- Before we play that, however, Sister Toldjah is running a caption contest on the photo Jim linked to. While you’re there, she could use some prayers.
- Bridget Johnson declares Barack Obama “no Henry Kissinger”. Cyrus Roberts Vance is more like it.
- Professor Stephen Bainbridge begins the education of the future entrepeneurs who for unfathomable reasons support Obama.
- More Geraghty – he found an Obama quote that would have made the presstitutes all looney had President Bush said it.
- Rich Horton dug up a speech Obama would have given in 1948 had he been around 60 years earlier.
- Dad29 notes the Afghan “surge” that Obama and John McCain are calling for is already happening, and has in all likelyhood been planned since at least the beginning of this year.
- Amanda Carpenter is shocked, SHOCKED that the party of higher gas taxes is refusing to pay gas tax on its fleet of convention vehicles.
- Slublog notes that they’re also getting Denver-taxpayer-paid car washes.
- Bill Quick corrects NBC “News”‘ David Gregory’s definition of a “revolution” in the TV “news” business.
- William Teach calls Vanity Fair out on strikes for trying to ape its downstairs neighbor.
- Alan Steinberg praises the “weaponization” of space. Without items like GPS, weather satellites, and communications satellites, we would still be conducting war like we did in World War II, with the attendant increased civilian and military casualties.
- Matt Moon continues to explore netroots versus grassroots.
- Deb Jordahl explores why Madison is no longer the “Camelot of the Midwest”. I guess liberal paradises are self-collapsing.
- Peter found Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac continuing to prop up the race-hustle of the Reverend Jesse Jackson even as they lobbied for a taxpayer bailout.
- Michelle Malkin notes pro-Mexican invasion Wachovia posted a massive loss. Shamnesty – not just for ruining political parties anymore.
- Mary Lazich sounds the clarion call on the exploding Wisconsin debt service. Guess raiding all those funds and putting IOUs in their place does have consequences after all.
- Dave in Texas lists Venezuela’s Sovi…er, Russian shopping list. Don’t miss the quote from “Dr. Strangelove”.
- Genghis exposes the next step in the ‘Rat Gas Price Hike Scheme – more welfare in the form of gas stamps.
- Sean Hackbarth is still looking for some underwriting of his trip to St. Paul at the beginning of September. I’ve chipped in; have you?
I’ll probably go to the mailbag for another edition of Ask Egg sometime today, when it’s just the effects of Claritin-D affecting me and not that plus sleeplessness.
