Interesting.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think Gov. Sarah Palin is going to “win over” the so-called “Hillary Democrats” for a variety of reasons: 1. Palin is Anti-Choice. 2. Palin is Anti-Gay. 3. Does there really *need* to be any more reasons? Yes, she’s a woman. But I hope to god that women [...]

Too Good Not To Share

My friend Barrett posted this over on LiveJournal: I. Can’t. Stop. Laughing. At. It. Especially Michelle Obama’s expression…and Hillary’s. So funny! I needed that laugh today!
