Will the Romney/Reid cat fight escalate to the point that they throw church statuery at each other? *popcorn*
Romney should pay Dingy Harry a visit and smack him across the face with a gauntlet.
Indeed. Old school, but with a YouTube release. Instantly viral.
Well, Wombat, you’re getting closer to home, time zone-wise!

Judge rules Oracle can’t abandon HP’s Itanium servers…
Good news VMS fans! Reports of Itanium’s death were, uh, exaggerated. Yesterday a judge ruled that Oracle breached their contract with HP when they dropped support for HP’s Itanium servers. (h/t Wombat-socho’s Live At Five)…
What about Harry Reid being a pederast? We need to hear his explanations on this topic.
Wombat: Don’t forget Bob Costas’ most recent Olympic fail. http://evilbloggerlady.blogspot.com/2012/08/nbc-olympic-raaaaacist-fail-you-need-to.html
Luckily the LDS church is short on idols. If they were both Catholic then the weaponry would be significantly more hefty and plentiful. I could see Romney going fisticuffs with Reid. LOL
Katy Perry and skeevy John Mayer? What is it with her attraction to skeevy dudes? Gross.
IDK; she doesn’t answer my calls and both Stacy and Smitty are spoken for. There’s just no figuring you dames out. 😉
This has been a rough week, what with the bidness launch and yesterday being spent with the doctors.
I, too, wish to hear his explanations for the Love That Formerly Dared Not Speak Its Name But Now Won’t STFU. Perhaps there is a large contribution from NAMBLA to explain this. In any case, he needs to come clean with America.
Olympics? Didn’t those used to be in Greece?
Enigma thy name is woman…and we like it that way.
There’s no accounting for taste though. Good luck with that callback Wombat 😉
Yeah – one of those medieval metal gauntlets.
If the WSJ and other “pay” sites tick you off by only giving the first sentence of an article on a link, here’s a workaround: go to Google News or other news aggregator or search engine, put in the article’s headline, and most of the time you go right to the full article. http://po.st/qLM7RN
Enigma would be a good name for girl. Nothing tops the names I heard for twin boys, though: Orangello and Lemonjello.
He might also explain how he turned a $193K Senate salary into $10 million in real estate.
My prayers and best wishes to Zilla.
Thanks for the tip.
I don’t understand these modern kids and their newfangled kids’ names. Whatever happened to nice traditional names for girls like Lexus and Porsche?
Please, think of the children!
Indeed. It’s no fun at all being her right now.
Better yet, a bottle of Jack Daniels, as in this video.

Oh, don’t worry – his children have $$ million positions with various Vegas law firms, union shops, whorehouses, and money laundries.
I once took a young lady’s name as “Portia” and was corrected with extreme prejudice.
