Definition #2 -- rubbish; refuse: Obama's Illusory Student Loan Scheme . Obama's illusory student loan program is offal that was slipped into the Obamacare Bill because it would never have garnered the 60 votes needed to pass on its own. Remeber Nancy's infamous words? "We have to pass this Bill to find out what's in it."

[tioga]

he is afraid he will lose those OWS votes...so he comes up with this. A++++

Corey Lunquist made his girl friend mad so she put a bag of waste animal parts under the rear seat of his car.
A week later it smelled offal and had magnets.

Well, that offal had better have had magnets in it ....otherwise, all the offal would o'fallen off from underneath the car.

Don’t we have an offal teleprompter-in-chief?

Snow - it was 90 degrees in my car, dropped to 85

[tioga]

What a game that was. A+++

[tioga]

We do indeedy. A+++

I know the use of a teleprompter has been criticized but would you really want these people relying on their own intelligence. Remember Joe Biden doesn't use a teleprompter. What more needs said?

It’s rainy and in the 40s here, miserable weather. Our team didn’t play like offal last night and won their first home game. Yay!

[xsmommy]

LOVE that!!

Guess who is now an "unappeasable tea party conservative purist^TM" .... George F Will.

The offal over at the RNC will be having a fit.

Can’t wait to see the whole article. A+++++

If you do offal right, it’s called “sausage”.

Speaking of which, tomorrow is band hoagie day and I’ll be home by lunchtime. It’s about 85 degrees here now, I hear we may be an inch of snow on the ground when I get there.

I will miss tonight’s big game. Final game of the regular season and the hometown team hosts their archrival. Both are undefeated. Winner gets the conference crown and a boost into the playoffs.

[tioga]

All this heavy snow, I will watch cautiously to see if we flood again.

Does xsboy have his boots? Snow is acomin’ !
