If Obama doesn't do something soon, he's gonna lose.

Woo hoo, I love the second new Firefox toolbar icon. At first I thought it was Einstein. I looked again and saw Uncle Sam from the graphic over there. Perfect. Better than the guy in overalls with a birdcage, even.

Mama Mika is even more annoying on 1600 than on Morning Shmoe.

Obama is failing at not being president. Blame him!

Good idea on the LOLdogs diversion. Bob popped an open thread right on up, didn't he? I think we were stinking up his poll. Good job, Jane.

I really am into the dang doggies. Here's Einstein puppy:

Somebody stop me. Hold an intervention. It's a reaction to having to think about my finances during that poll-thingy.

I can relate.

How...wha...Clare Booth Luce Foundation gives way to Mann Coulter modeling a fur "from her personal wardrobe"...? Previous Woman Of The Year....?

Oh ma god I see the ICON!!! Up in the tab! Holy carp. I dinnuh have to do anything! It was just there!!!

Ackkkk *barfing* Jane, dammit, that was disgusting.

I read today on Huffpo that Coultergeist had her jaw wired shut. Ya think a doctor named Olbermann was involved in that decision?

Beautiful, isn't it? (Not the Screech--the icon). And you sound like my son-in-law.

http://ihasahotdog.com/2007/11/30/teh-engines-cant/

Y'all have reached a very special place.

And I snickered too when I read the story about Coulter's jaw. Couldn't have happened to a better person.

Why can't Barack Obama fix typepad!

I read some great comments about Ann's surgery. Like, "Maybe it'll heal shut."

Or, How did she break her jaw? "She finally caught a car."

We has, hasn't we?

I think he will roll out the Typewad Termination Commission after Thanksgiving.

I love the car comment. I nearly choked. Is that picture shopped? Her hand can't be that long.

Simian, if I remember the comment. A simian-like hand.
(shudders)

Wow. The Joint-Chief's Xmas Joint has been cancelled.

Does anyone remember that Colbert had a bird (Cockatoo?) on his shoulder on election night??

Colbert gave us the bird?

It's so fun to watch old Daily Shows now that I know the outcome.

*obligatory throwaway post after having to log in once again*

and it took 3 times goddamnit. Fuckity fuck typewad.

>>How...wha...Clare Booth Luce Foundation gives way to Mann Coulter modeling a fur "from her personal wardrobe"...? Previous Woman Of The Year....?

I'm hurt. I posted this item last night. With a nifty joke, too.

*kidding about being hurt*

I watched the Pirate one online today since I missed it last week.

>>I think he will roll out the Typewad Termination Commission after Thanksgiving.

Working on it.

Jane! Apologize to Bob. (and from me too--I must have missed it--here):

Heh, I was speaking of Barack but Bob is good too. Holler if you need the pledged bucks from the "Commenting" thread.

Now that I look back I remember the post, Bob. The Valdez funny was good. Jane distracted me with puppies again.

There is no question the BBQ media has transformed into a watchdog with an Obama win--he will be under the microscope--actually, he already is. Unbelievable--the librul media--in the tank for Obama.

Sorry Bob, I did see your nifty joke.

Was just freaked out all over again once I saw the whole context, as it were.

I heard Mark Green very calmly say if Pat Buchanan didn't stop talking in That Way he was going to break a glass.

Olbermann denies breaking Coultergeist's jaw! Breaking news.

Clare Booth Luce, dead since 1987?, is Miss December??

Never mind, don't tell me.

I think this is a typo:

"A regular on the Fox News Channel's O'Reilly Factor, Mary Katharine Ham is the online editor of The Washington Examiner. Formerly the managing editor of Townhall.com, O'Reilly is wearing a green three-quarter length sheared mink coat with laser grooving from Miller's Furs."

As seen here:

He would look so elegant.

He borrowed it from Rudy Giuliani.

Oh I wish.

Giuliani, who told O'Reilly: "stay away from mai hot dog". http://ihasahotdog.com/2008/06/29/funny-dog-pictures-mai-hot-dog/

Green would bring out his Irish eyes.

They weren't smiling.

In fact I think he snuffled.

Hot Dog: "...drop it....drop it...."

I'm just getting to 11 pm on election night on the Daily Show (Colbert puts on ear muffs and black goggles...Goddamn Awesome!)

Jane, are you running 85 tabs again? You know your computer doesn't like that.

Krugman on KO - I love his geeky self. And I loved how he snarked about his visit with Dubya - "I just wanted to know my nickname." Terminator, perhaps?

I can quit Tabs any time I want!!!

First the puppy cam...now a plethora of hot dog pics...you guys have issues.

I thought of you, Kat, when I saw him. You and Rachel and Krugman...

Then here, Jane:
http://ihasahotdog.com/2008/07/23/funny-pictures-know-how-knock/

Issues...yes.

Okay guys, here it is:
http://ihasahotdog.com/2008/01/16/wharrgarbl/

DP, is that where whargarbl came from? Avi? Who started that?

Chicken? Egg? Avi? I does not knoz. Erm, I have no idea. I hit random and there it was.

Jesus H, now enough people CA have changed their minds on Prop 8 for it not to have passed.

I seem to remember 'wharrgarbling' going on during the primaries. (Debates?)

Had to fucking login TWICE to say:
make that "in" CA

Debates. I was not yet here during the primaries, unfortunately.

I thought "whargarble" came from recruitgal in the UK. No?

We need some shorthand.
FTK (fuck typekey).
FFFFFTK (fuckity-fuckity-fuck-fuck-FUCK Typekey).

Or is it Type Pad? FTP. That's been taken. PFFFFT.

Maybe Recruitgal got it from "Has Hot Dog."

Small innernets world.

Really I can stop like, whenever.

Hot dog pics are funny, but I have the live version at home tonight. My daughter came home with a new puppy - a 3 pound long hair chihuahua, about 6 weeks old. He joins our 3 yr old short hair chihuahua Spunky.

Puppy's are so cute - but messy.

Jane Hamsher on Rachel re: Brennan withdrawing his name from consideration for CIA, etc. good stuff. :)

Turns out, I'm the champ at shutting down discussion threads!
Aorry about that.

Ceu- it's about time for the third shift to clock in around here.

I don't know what shift I am :(

Bob, you've got to front page this little bit of news from Nate Silver:

That Obama is SURELY shaping up to be a "center-right" guy! (NOT!)

Also - I watched Fox news today. I said this at OpenLeft, and I'm going to say it everywhere I can. Liberals are about to lose the narrative if they keep whining about Obama appointing liberals who are not "progressive enough." Everytime the liberal faction argues that Obama is appointing centrists and center-right types, they are feeding the meme that Obama will govern from the center-right.

Let me be clear. I'm an independent, and don't care one fiddle where he governs from, so long as he governs well, and keeps some of his major campaign policies. Call it whatever you want. But if the liberals are paying attention - the right is getting ready to coopt Obama. Fox news was THRILLED with Obama, THRILLED, so much that they ignored the opportunity to call him "Clinton II" as the left is fretfully doing, and called him BUSH III. You catch that? BUSH III. They are gleeful, and fully ready to get on board with "their" new president, at least until they can stab him in the back with cultural warfare (that seems to be what's coming).

They even are arguing that Obama going along with the Bush withdrawal plan is Obama being Bush III. How can they get away with this? Because progressives refuse to acknowledge and embrace that Obama has ALWAYS said he was for a 16 month phased withdrawal - and the right-wing media (at least at FOX) is going to credit Bush with the withdrawal, despite that the timetable was forced upon Bush by the Iraqis.

If the progressives/liberals care about narrative - this ought to be sounding alarms. The more the left wing rejects him, the more the desperate right, eager for a win, coopts him.
