T.S.Fay is on the way and yet I’m going to bed happier than I’ve been in ages!
Could the Dem ticket be any more pompous and arrogant? I smell a landslide for McCain.
Idiots over at DU are falling all over themselves “but I never got my text message /cry /cry /cry”.
Somewhere tonight Hillary Clinton is not very happy.
I thought it would be Sebelius, but I see he has gone with the typical white male.

He’s not only a Famous Plagiarist, he’s “known for” being glib!
In an article entitled “Biden’s Belly Flop”, Newsweek printed Joe Biden’s yearbook picture from his college days and a copy of his law school transcripts with the big “F” in his transcripts circled. Biden was given a chance to repeat his legal methods course, and above the “F” his retake grade of 80% was eventually penciled in. Being a repeat offender when it came to plagiarism made things much, much worse for Biden than they might have been otherwise in his failed bid for the Democratic presidential ticket in 1987.
Senator Biden’s plagiarism of a speech by British Labor Party leader Neal Kinnock took place at a campaign stump at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. In closing his speech, Biden took Kinnock’s ideas and language as if they were his very own inspired thoughts, prefacing Kinnock’s ideas with the phrase “I started thinking as I was coming over here . . . “. Little did Biden suspect that video footage of this speech would be spliced together with footage of Kinnock’s speech in an “attack video” which would be distributed by members of the Dukakis campaign.
Making the headline news in the New York Times, and the evening news on TV, the video was a stab in the back for Biden by his democratic competitor, and although he insisted that “I’m in this race to stay. I’m in this race to win,” the resulting publicity surrounding his unacknowledged use of Neal Kinnock’s speech was what eventually forced him out of the race. Name recognition was no longer a problem for Biden, but not the kind of name recognition which would assist his campaign for the democratic presidential nomination. His name was now a byword for plagiarism. His situation became a classic example of plagiarism for high school teachers and college instructors across the nation lecturing on the evils of unacknowledged source use.
Biden initially denied any wrongdoing, claiming that this was just an inadvertent lack of acknowledgement. Yet there were other instances of rhetorical borrowing from speeches made by Robert F. Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey. And the fact that Biden had given other speeches using the Kinnock passages without acknowledgment suggested that the lifting was more than just an inadvertent oversight.
Hillary supporters are gonna LOVE this! Bwahahahaha! :-)
“Hope” and “Change”, my foot! Some old white haired dude as Ubama’s VP? LOL, I wonder what Paris Hilton will think about Joe Biden!
Thank God He is still looking down upon the USA favorably. Now if we will only turn toward Him and not ruin this wonderful blessing!!
Man, Democrats cant keep anything secret can they? I bet Biden leaked it.

OBAMA BIN BIDEN
It’s 3 am and I’m awakened by a text message...he wants to install a Bidet in Dick Cheney’s house??
*zzzzzzzzz*
This confirms, to me, that the Obama Campaign is essentially rudderless. The Biden pick deals with the crisis-of-the-day of about five days ago, where Smugs was revealed to be ridiculously unqualified to deal with the Georgia crisis. So our Democrat Dutchboys have stuck their fingers in that hole in the dike, and now the Rezko hole has opened up, and Plugs does absolutely nothing for Smugs on that one.
Nor will he be able to help on the next 52 inadequacies to come down the pike. Smugs' only winning strategy was to re-start the hype machine and ride to victory as the candidate of Hope-n-Change. But Plugs is going to smother that effort at every turn, because he is the pick of Nastiness-n-Ossification. Plugs' presence on the ticket will simultaneously remind of everything we don't like about Smugs and everything we find inadequate about him.
A true train-wreck of a pick, and indicative of Smugs' underlying incompetency.
