For the poll, and for the record, I gave some cash to Harris/Walz, and some to several Senate candidates. They all have been extremely grateful. In fact, they take time out from their important work to text me day and night. I consider them friends now.
Always looked to me like a guy surreptitiously and beatifically rolling a wad of belly button lint between his thumb and forefinger. Or a frotteur in a crowded NYC subway car.
I regretted clicking on your link to watch the Hewitt Hissy Fit, because it sent me to the Fox News website, where I was forced to watch an ad, which contributed to their revenue.
But perhaps appropriately the ad was for Amazon.com.
Wait! Was this all a scheme to take pennies from Bezos and send them to the Post's great antagonists?
With the exception of George Will --- hermetically sealed somewhere in the early 20th c. though he is --- the rest of the so-called conservative WaPo columnists are little more than DEI apologists for anything but conservatism. Their pieces almost always strike me as put together with a deadline of one kind or another in view. Not sure there is a contractual "quota" for opinion columnists, but much of their stuff smacks of filling one at the last minute: "Yeah, haven't used that grievance for a while." It may be that authentic conservative voices are afraid of having their pets kidnapped or, on second thought, simply wouldn't get the monetized "clicks" these defenders of the indefensible do, from both sides.
The truth is so bizarre I will risk sounding like I made this up: I woke up on saturday with the word in my head. Knew it was a word but had no memory of what it meant. When I looked it up and saw how it fit nto the GP post I was going to write over the next hour, I was dumbfounded.
H-m-m. Sounds like a kin to Foreign Accent Syndrome, where individuals wake up, usually from a traumatic head injury, speaking in a foreign accent or only in a foreign language, of which they previously had no knowledge. Happen to bump your head?
I'll be out of the country on election day. I voted early (a breeze here in DC). I'm sorry to be missing hanging out with you on Election Night, but I'm looking forward to missing whatever fireworks will occur. I hope they're over by the time I return on November 15. By the way, does anyone see any significance in the fact that Election Day this year falls on Guy Fawkes Day?
I've been giving $100 a month all year to Al Franken's Midwest Values PAC which helps support key down ballot Democratic candidates. Also sent a donation to Sherrod Brown's campaign, but oddly enough, nothing to the Veep.
I like George Will, even though he is still sane washing some of conservative antics and betrays a heavy right-leaning bias. But, both Hugh Hewitt and Marc Thiessen opinions in the Washington Post make me gag. I think it was funny for Hewitt to walk off in a tantrum. Sheesh! I thought he was an adult. Thanks for the laugh. didn't Trump do that once or twice, too?
Given recent subjects in the news, perhaps the poll should have another choice: "I contributed to one candidate and my spouse contributed to another."
FWIW I did not contribute to either candidate, because I contribute to organizations that really need the money and use my donations much more efficiently and effectively to produce Democrat votes.
Some of my favorites among these are Working America, Movement Labs , Galvanize Action, and Accelerate Change.

Wait a minute. I thought I was their only friend.
As to 'black jobs' - it at least led to one pretty great Halloween costume I saw somewhere:
a black guy in a black turtleneck, holding up a new iphone
Gene, you really think Hugh Hewitt is handsome? If having a shit-eating grin makes one handsome, then maybe so.
I think he’d fit right in with the Omega Theta Pi members from Animal House.
He's got a certain Pence-esque je ne sais quoi.
Or rather, je ne sais rien.
*chef’s kiss*

He looks like he’d gladly be paddled more.
I think a better way of saying "spit-flying” might be “spittle-spewing."
Not bad.

Yes, Gene, we all had a crush on Teri Garr.
Especially in Young Frankenstein and the Gary 7 episode of Star Trek.

Absquatulate is quite a word, do you use a thesaurus or just read dictionaries for fun?

And your lucky numbers are 4 7 25 33 48 and 54
Or is he channeling his inner George F. Will?
And what, may I ask, does the F stand for? Is it akin to Bucky F. Dent and Bill F. Buckner?

He was evidently a true believer, and a snowflake. I’m stunned - this means he was sincere about the cod-swallop he’d written.
Wrong. He was a never-Trumper until Trump won. Then his face, pasty white, suddenly had its nose turn a warm shade of brown.
Even worse.
And here I thought "absquatulate" was a physical therapy exercise.

I will not miss Hugh Jardon.
Hahaha 😆

Wasn't he the guy who wanted to sh*t on the CNN desk? (or something like that). Good riddance.
