Adam Nagourney of the NYT: There's a Sale at Penny's!

And Leon's getting larger!

Seriously, though, I loved the following nugget:

70 percent of Mr. Kerry's supporters said they were more worried about candidates who "are too close to religion and religious leaders" than about political leaders who "don't pay enough attention" to religion

Really? Remind me which party had a candidate (although said candidate was a joke, but still got to participate in televised debates and make a convention appearance) whose title was Reverend. Ohhhh...that's right! But people like Nagourney never seem to wet their beds fretting about the religiosity of candidates like Sharpton or Je$$e Jack$on. I wonder why that is? I also wonder why Kerry's constant professions of his Catholic faith and his campaign appearances at churches (where he would quote scripture) weren't met with similar hand-wringing? And what's up with the reverence for our first born-again President? It's a mystery why a sophisticate like Mikey Moore would deign to sit with such a Bible-thumpin' rube (from a Red State, no less) at the Dem convention!

I think all of this polling about "moral values" swinging the election has been seriously misinterpreted. It's not that the Jesusland vote came out and voted for Bush because he was their shining Christian Knight. I think it was the result of Bush articulating his values and sticking to them. By way of contrast, Kerry was a weathervane, unable to come up with a clear stance on anything. That's a problem for anybody who's not already a severe ABB voter.

Nagourney's not doing NYT readers any favors.

But he is doing us one. Keep it up!

Oh come on. Everyone knows the red zone has always been for loading. Don't start up with your white zone shit again.

I will be commenting as follows so short and sweet.

Adam is a daft prick.

Vernon, we all know what this story is all about. You want me to have an abortion!

Why are you people doing this to me.
Its like an INFECTION IN MY BRAIN.

Say...have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

Today's Times also had a fine piece on airline passenger inconvenience and violation. Lots of professional businesswomen getting sick of having their breasts squeezed and groins and asses groped by slack-jawed, bossy TSA female workers 9 steps down on the food chain from them - for almost every flight they take.

No where in the Times was in mentioned that this is all happening because of Political Correctness. Only that this increased intrusion is justified on 71-year old Lutheran grannies because Muslim Chechen women smuggled explosives on Russian planes - "and we want our planes to be safe, don't we???"

Of course, the Times also loves to run articles about how the vast majority of The Religion of Peace abhor, just abhor terrorism, but are reluctant to speak out because they fear getting involved. But if PC ended, and TSA stopped patting down the asses of travelling Jewish businesswomen, MidWestern grannies, and 6-year boys to focus on Muslims.....if the line was split in two - those ethnicities NOT involved in terrorism allowed to proceed with minimal invasion to their privacy....those Islamoids in the other line subjected to anything including body cavity searches...maybe the adherents of the Religion of Peace would conclude there is a down side to tolerating the Jihadists and finally clean up their own ranks.

I just wanna tell you good luck. We're all counting on you.

I wish people would quit pointing out the idiocies of the lamestream media. The cocoon that Nagourney, Dana Milbank, and the legions of lefty asshats weave keeps the DemonRAT party in a fog, which helps to lead to their defeats. If the DemonRATs start figuring out what is really happening, there is a slight chance they would do something effective. God knows we don't need that.

I Rather doubt that will be a problem.
The only thing that can save the Dems is a genuine movement of their platform away from social*ism.

And what do you think the chances of that are? It requires brutally honest self-reflection, respect for the constituents, and a rejection of leftism.

NOT. GONNA. HAPPEN.
