Open thread: Proud day in the 7th

Mike McIntyre has just left the floor of the house voicing strong support for fatherhood. McIntyre voted against stem cell research, supports Bush's torture policy, and supports fatherhood. His next big move may be support of apple pie.

I heart Mudcat Saunders

and I don't give a flyin' flip who duhdn't like it.

... just to be clear on that point. ;)

"They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum Then they charged the people a dollar 'n a half just to see 'em. Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got till it's gone? They paved paradise and put up a parking lot."

Its really interesting

reading kos where everyone seems to hate him now, matched with raising kaine where people either agree with him or thought it was poorly said but a good point (although there are a few who disagree, but its a minority)

"Keep the Faith"

Harry Reid:

"I’ve learned one thing in listening to all the debates and reading about all these people running for office, and the one fact I’ve learned, I can’t get out of my mind, is that Rudy Giuliani has been married more times than Mitt Romney’s been hunting."

I wish I had that guy's way with words.

Funny you should mention that A.

My family and I lived on Camp Lejeune during that time 1980-1983 right in the housing area effected on the Base, and my wife went through an entire pregnancy there. We are still waiting on answers.

What the hell....

What the hell is going on? Under the Dome is reporting that Same Day Registration has been pushed back yet again.

The bill had opposition from TWO people in committee. The bill is supported by dozens of board of election members. Les Merrit delayed a vote for a week by lying. And now its been pulled from the calendar yet again.

What the hell is going on over there?

Enough said.

Supporting fatherhood?

At this point in our history that is like supporting "freedom Fries", for all the good it is doing.

Many of the guys getting killed in Iraq are "Fathers". Support them!

Many of the killed and wounded in Iraq are sons! Support their fathers and bring them home! The Presidesident is just a man, sincere, but sincerely wrong. The Congress needs to stand up to him. America is waiting for some Democratic LEADERSHIP.....and a little spine would'nt hurt.

These meaningless gestures from the House floor are an embarassment to real statemanship and getting the peoples work done.

Well said, Mr. Adame.

McIntyre in print

In todays Robesonian McIntyre wrote a long editiorial on Fatherhood. This is the same paper that love's Ann Coulter. I don't know which is worse McIntyre wasting ink on a subject that everyone agrees with or the right wing nuts

These people are idiots

A House bill would tax money wire transfers made by illegal immigrants.

And how, pray tell, would they know if someone was an illegal immigrant?

An attorney for the N.C. Retail Merchants Association said store owners would be forced to require identification of every single wire transfer to avoid lawsuits. Cleveland dismissed the idea:

"If a fella comes in with a pair of shaggy boots on, jeans and a T-shirt, and he's got a straw hat on -- I mean, come on, give me a break." (AP)

Some of these people never cease to amaze.

Straw Hat.

You forgot the straw hat. That's key.
