The moil was evident in Eric Holder's expression as he denied, denied, and denied involvement in Fast and Furious. The truth was a different matter.

Moil, moil ... I am sure there is another meaning; it’s on the tip of my tongue ...

[tioga]

150 Days till we vote the bum out!

Look lively!

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

Yours is the first of what should be several cutting remarks.

[Pollster1]

Yours is the first of what should be several cutting remarks.

Speaking of which, one should be careful not to confuse "moil" with "mohel".

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

The economy’s lapsed into moil
As unemployment continues to spoil
Barack’s re-up odds
High praise to the gods
And ex-supporters, who flinch and recoil

[NicknamedBob]

Does the term moil spread from the top down, or from the bottom up?

[SoothingDave]

That ain’t your tongue!

[tioga]

Looks like poor lil Cory Booker is NOT going to be in the second Obama term, either.

A+++

[afraidfortherepublic]

Despite months of moil and millions of dollars spent, nothing has changed in Wisconsin government. Walker is still Governor, Kleefisch is still Lt. Governor, and our State Senators are still in office. One cloud is that one Senator is on the verge of defeat, but a new election looms in November with Republicans favored to gain 3 seats. What has changed is that both sides of the electorate are energized and have hardened in their views.

[Louis Foxwell]

His tongue is moiled between the first and second molars.

[tioga]

Oil floats on top, right?

[xsmommy]

I sense the male students clutching their privates for some reason.

[tioga]

You have been at ground zero in the battle to bring our country back from the brink for months now. I don’t know how you stand up to all that pressure. WI has withstood it all though. Just a few more months till Nov, hang in there.

A+++

[tioga]

Yeah, I am staying out of that one.

[xsmommy]

I gotta say, I love the way the bubbaloon is industriously moiling away to re-elect the Obams.

[SoothingDave]

Double, double, moil and trouble.

[NeoCaveman]

The Democrats spared themselves the moil of a Congressional campaign in Los Angeles this fall as both candidates on the ballot will be Republicans.

[SoothingDave]

That was NOT what they had in mind when they went to their new party-free primary system.

[blueunicorn6]

Moil keeps mengine in mcar lubricated.

[MrB]

Marack Mobama is a Moil on the Mass of Mamerica.

[ConorMacNessa]

Word you don’t want to hear from your Mobil:
“Oops!”

[MrB]

Oops, indeed:

[NeoCaveman]

Liberals always fail to see the unexpected consequences.

Also, they’ll waste a ton of money all the way to November on two races that are safe D seats because the top two are both incumbent dems who have been redistricted together. A partisan primary would have ended these fights but now they roll until November. Soaking up resources that could have gone to fight real races.

[hobbes1]

We always do that when you walk by ; )

[tioga]

Playing your fav game on the playground today?

[tioga]

It would just be perfect if the dems put that plan in place.

[tioga]

I got into some trouble this morning, phone calls from my doctor’s office. I have to head out of town for the rest of the day. Will check in on class when I can from my Nook. Stay sane, stay out of trouble....you can grade each other’s homework if you want. That ought to keep you entertained.

[SoothingDave]

Love this picture.

[mikrofon]

Didn’t a gun moil used to be a gangster’s goil?

[xsmommy]

It so visually conveys his entire being. He’s endearing as hell in this mode!

[NeoCaveman]

Bubba “Miss me yet”
Barry “Not this shiite again”

[ConorMacNessa]

GRRR!!!

I was posting from my phone and hit the wrong key - hate when that happens!





Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[hobbes1]

In concert with that, read this, between the lines.

Coupled with top Senate Dems going after the Administration on Security Leaks, It's time to start stocking up on party favors for Election Night.

There is no more split in the Democrat party. The Clintons have won, and they're cutting this guy loose.

Every Anti-Romney argument he tries to make, will get about a week, before some well connected party man makes a 'gaffe' to undercut it.

[NeoCaveman]

Yes. This Cory Booker guy has a future.

Other Democrats that want to have a future will distance themselves from Barry too.

As Ace would say over at Ace of Spades HQ blog “it’s time to stock up on pudding”

[hobbes1]

Consider all of this, together.

[hobbes1]

Consider all of this, together.

Unprecedented against a sitting President.

[SoothingDave]

If I’ll Have Another wins tomorrow that’ll be another bad omen for Obama. First Triple Crown winner since Carter.

[NeoCaveman]

Dave,

I think it would also be great for the sport to have a Triple Crown winner. It’s been 34 years.

Hobbes,

A little over confident as it is only June. Of course it is one cold June for the Pres__ent

[NeoCaveman]

If this is right there will be no triple crown winner this year.

[Texan5]

Stay safe!

Bill Clinton’s reputation
Is something Obama forgot-
And no, not about pursuing
Any female he thinks is hot

Its about his never forgetting
A damaging word or bad turn-
How he can moil every word
And cause his enemies to burn

Obama foolishly invited him in
And Clinton went full throttle-
Obama’s minions don’t know how
To return the genie to his bottle...

[SoothingDave]

Damn.

[hobbes1]

Julius Caesar was the tragedy.

This is the Comedy.

This level of betrayal by the party of a siting President, is unprecedented.

And that sort of thing is not happenstance.

The next thing to watch for, is his funding drying up.

[tioga]

OK, class.

Never got back all day, give yourselves an A++ if I didn’t grade your homework.

Had a wonderful day with my adopted grandkids.

[tioga]

You should go to Amazon and read the beginning of The Amateur, which is about the clintoons...bill had a poll done to show hillary that she would have a chance to win in a repeat of the dem primary against Obama. too funny!
