Tough choice - watch the debate and throw something at the TV, or read the live thread of nattering nabobs at FR and put my fist through the computer monitor. Decisions, decisions.

Here's some happy news:

Just three weeks after emergency quadruple bypass surgery, a thin but surefooted Bill Clinton is back to hitting his walking points. Yesterday, he stopped into a Chappaqua, Westchester County, pharmacy wearing baggy jeans and Nike hiking shoes and carried his own brown bag of prescription medication [Prescriptions in a plain brown wrapper? Hmmmm] out to an idling SUV. full story

Bill carried his own medication! He probably had a Snickers candy bar in there (trying no to let my mind go to the bad place!!).

Ryan said Clinton, "looked like himself, just a little bit quieter."

Ahhh, bet that was a refreshing change from all that bloviating he usually does.

File this one under, we've exhausted almost every excuse possible but they'll never see this one coming!

Miami (CNSNews.com) - An African-American civil rights spokeswoman said on Wednesday that the new computerized voting machines "terrify" her, and that blacks are "afraid of machines like that."

Joanne Bland, the director and co-founder of the National Voting Rights Museum and Institute in Selma, Ala., told CNSNews.com on Wednesday that the new computerized voting machines are going to intimidate black voters in Florida and elsewhere and suppress their vote in the November presidential election because many blacks are not "technologically savvy."

"The computers really terrify me. The electronic voting -- the new machines -- I think it will turn off a segment in my community, particularly the elderly. We are not as technically savvy, and we are afraid of machines like that, and they (African-Americans) probably won't go [to the polls] and they probably won't ask for assistance, said Bland, who spent the last week in Florida.

One more... A good morning slam for Mr. Smartypants:

Pacific Rim Bureau (CNSNews.com) - It was all very well for Senator John F. Kerry to say he would open bilateral talks with North Korea should he win November's election, but the Democratic candidate should indicate whether he was also willing to enter such talks on Pyongyang's conditions, a Korean expert said Friday. "Kerry is either ignoring or ignorant of the fact that any bilateral dialogue between Washington and Pyongyang -- if it should to take place -- would have to take place on the conditions laid down by North Korea," said Lee Dong-bok, senior associate with the Center for Strategic and International Studies. Lee was commenting on Kerry's assertions during Thursday's televised debate against President Bush that he would want to hold bilateral talks with Pyongyang covering the current nuclear crisis and other issues. During their debate, Bush and Kerry presented two different views of how the impasse over North Korea's nuclear programs had come about in the first place. Full Story ... a bad news for Effin' read.
