    I have a rant. Now that the blagojevich taint has not stuck, here’s politico creating an all new taint…

    To the extent that the report succeeds in its goal of establishing the distance between Obama and Blagojevich, it necessarily raises the question: Why was the president-elect and leader of the Democratic party playing no role in a key appointment to national office being made in his home state, and by a Democratic governor?

    Wow. :( QT

  • gypsysoul

    wow…indeed!why did you flush the toilet you knew it was broken?i didn’t flush the toilet!why the hell wouldn’t you flush the toilet?sorry about the toilet reference. jenny’s “shitter was full” dance on the brain.

  • Nanotyrannus

    I thought they were playing a role. Didn’t they recommend someone from Obama’s staff they said would be “agreeable” to them or some such?

  • Gottlieb

    This is a drunken xmas eve rant fueled by my first Spanish Coffee. After reading your comments on Warren and others on the right, do not call them or their ideas crazy as they are totally serious and will destroy us in order to save us in the name of their god. They are allowed to do anything in the name of their god because their god tells them to.

  • gypsysoul

    gottlieb, is that directed towards “all us sinners” or someone in particular?p.s. thinking of last minute stocking stuffers…gas cards! god would appreciate it!

  • Teh Minx

    Hello All!I want to say a big Thanks & give a squeezy hug to Bob & all of the Cescans who welcomed this politcal newbie.I got Pain Patches for Christmas, does that mean I was good or bad??Gypsy– Yes! to the Holiday Hell with a side of queezy tummy!Teh Minx

  • gypsysoul

  • cminri

    Just wanted to take a moment to thank Bob for providing this platform for all of us. I am proud to be part of this goddamn community – and cant wait to see 2009 unfold. Peace to all.

  • Teh Minx

    Oh Gypsy, I only wish they were for naughtiness. At the risk of spanking the topic again, I have fibromyalgia & it takes high-powered narcotics to cut the pain.Hey Jenny! You are truly versatile! I lurv me some interpretive dance! Now maybe Teh Joe will do Chevy’s “boss monologue”(Spinless, dickless, etc.)Carlos– Did the gift for Mrs. arrive in time?Minx

  • Groganman

    Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!Can you believe that stores here in NYC already have the Valentine’s Day crap up?Yay commercialism!!!!

  • theo

    I love Christmas. I like our little community here.Hey, new top five thing! Top five things you’re either happy about, or that you’re looking forward to in the new year. Yeah, it’s schmaltzy, but a little schmaltz can be a good thing…Right?

  • cminri

    1. Obama2. Obama3. Obama4. Obama5. Obama

  • incredulous72

    The #1 thing I’m looking forward to in the new year is January 20th. I don’t care about all the controversy, just get Obama and his new administration into office!Peace, Love, Soul and all that good stuff. ;-)

  • gypsysoul

  • dontpanic23

    Hope everyone is smelling nutmeg (but not if it’s a concussion). A toast to our host and a Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it. And peace to all.

  • TrueNorth

    Merry Christmas Bob. I wish I could have made a larger donation to your Christmas bonus but, well, you know. Here’s hoping that next year leaves us all with a little more to donate to the people who have helped us keep our heads up these last years. Thanks for all you do.
