I am substituting for xsmommy, the regular Monday professor, who is vacationing in Italy. That reminds me: “exigent” is NOT an Italian word that means a man who had a sex change operation.

The defeat of Barack Obama in the upcoming election is as exigent as was the defeat of any foreign enemy we ever faced in wartime.

To prevent further grade inflation, I have re-scaled the curve. The highest grade will be A+++.

No pushing at the door please!

My Dad always held open the door for my Mom. Does that make him an exi-Gent?

The Lamestream media have become even more exigent then usual in their attempts to re-inflate the numbers for the Obozo campaign and stop the bleeding.

Let's hope Romney hits an artery in the townhall debate tomorrow.

As America is in exigent peril and danger,
as a US Ambassador is brutally murdered and gang-raped
on a schedule carefully pre-planned by the DNC,
as war fires rage against America around the world,
as dumbfounded terrorists come in droves across the border
ready to receive automatic weapons
courtesy of Obama and Holder's DO"J",
the undocumented Marxist pRes_ _ent
has but only important one goal:
Sigourney Weaver, Cynthia Nixon and Geena Davis
will perform a "presidential-themed stage show
to raise funds for U.S. leader Barack Obama's
re-election campaign".

There are exigencies and there are emergencies.

Near as I can figure, the exigency is the rock, and the emergency is what crawls out from under it.

Stuff you have to deal with.

Buongiorno free wifi at the hotel so I decided to pop in and say hi. We are resting after walking our behinds off here the past two days. Taking a siesta after lunch. Lots of stuff closed on Mondays which is annoying. Medici chapel and Dante’s house both closed today we will try to get there tomorrow before we leave for Rome.
We are taking the train toRome and found out fortuitously from a nice fruity couple yesterday that a train strike was possible/imminent. Asked this AM at the desk and the concierge said it was “just a little strike, now it’s done” so I suppose I will check in the AM to make sure they haven’t decided on another little one in time for our departure. Who knows how these things work!
Saw burial spots of Donatello, Galileo (originally wasnt allowed in a church but he got there in 1700s) and Michelangelo as well as Machiavelli.

Exigent

From The Big Book of Smarts: Exigent is just a man who has learned humility.This is not to confused with an elderly man who has learned humus which is a dirty old man so to speak, which is not the same as man making hummus, a substance that looks like it was ate once already, bumus humus, not Bummer Hummer because them’s real neat if you can log off a few veneer trees on state land.

Remember, the Obama definition of exigent is as follows:
exigent [ek-si-juhnt]

adjective
1. requiring action or aid immediately after my golf game, or fundraiser, or meeting 2-bit actors, or singers, or figuring out March Madness basketball playoffs...

Origin: 2008-present; late Middle English Thug < Latin exigent- (stem of 'I missed that putt 'cause of you!' )

I’m going to be interested to see how Romney deals with Candy Cow-ley-I hope it is harshly. People on both sides appear to be concerned that she is going rogue. Why can she not be replaced, even at this late date?

I’d like to see Romney call
Obama on more of his lies
And see Obama channel Gore
And react with lots of sighs

Maybe his handlers will suggest
That he not avoid being rude-
That it is exigent he do so
To avoid his being screwed

I hope he is emboldened by
An audience he sees as fools-
In that case, he’ll try saving face
By ignoring most of the rules
