Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD.

Dennis Kucinich appears out of nowhere, like a deus ex machina, with articles of impeachment for VP Cheney.

Articles of Impeachment To Be Filed On Cheney

Look, I've prepared articles of impeachment. Aren't they pretty?

No pushing at the door please!

Happy Humpday Everybody!

Get to class, you slackers! I've opened a new classroom, but Miss Rika has the gradebook. So if you're looking for a grade you'll have to ping her. Miss Slippy is pretty generous with the plusses if you compliment her shapely legs, so you might try submitting your homework to her instead. My secret for getting extra plusses on my A+ from xs will remain a secret between me and her, so you're on your own if you want her to review your work.

“Democracy....is not delivered by the grace of some sociological deus ex machina”

Correcting: Dennis Kucinich appears out of nowhere, like a deus diabolus ex machina, with articles of impeachment for VP Cheney.

deus ex machina

The original, working title of the hit TV show "24."

Excellent find.

The plot lines and dilemmas are certainly not solved by the investigative skills of the CTU team, that’s for sure.

[camle]

deus ex machina? the dems have a boatload of those. they just don’t make sense.

[CholeraJoe]

Love the Dobby as Kucinich pic! LOL!

[jla]

The G.O.P. needs a deus ex machina to appear before the Party schism becomes permanent and the deus ex Marxina finds herself sitting behind the Oval Office desk.

Thanks. It just seemed like the character captures Kucinich’s persona better than any caricature ever could.
