Best video ever is Misty being released from Quarantine. I call her “Plumpkin.” She was enslaved by the circus industry between 1965 and 2004, she lost her best friend, Lota, to TB (inflicted while in the circus), but she perseveres and is the happiest elephant. (Lota had three months of joy and freedom at the Sanctuary until she succumbed to her illness). The sanctuary vet said he’d look deep into her big sad eyes and just bawl.

Not exactly resonant with shooting wildlife from helicopters.

“so, WHEN WILL THERE BE AN LA STYLE SN SHINDIG?”

I’m in. Thoughts?

C’mon Sadlys! This will be HISTORIC!! Let’s do it! If’n I can traverse that far northwise, you guyz can traverse that far eastwise and westwise.

BTW: Talk about yer cognitive dissonance. I just watched FOX NEWS’s coverage of Obama and McLame’s appearances at the Al Smith (?) event. They were both congenial to each other and funny and awesome. No other outlet that I surfed to had anything about it. Go figure.

Try some campaign cheer.

Rugged, you are a fine upstanding exmaple of your kind. Thank you for the invite, and watch out for effin’ badgers. I’ve heard tell some of them pretend to be Republican furries and then . . . well . . . I’ll leave that up to your imagination.

Duane: Can i confess something?… Sometimes when I’m driving on the road at night, I see two Barrack Obama’s coming toward me. Fast. I have this sudden impulse to turn the wheel quickly and head on into the oncoming car. I can anticipate the explosion, the sound of shattering glass, the flames rising out of the flowing gasoline.

Alvy: Right. I have to go now Duane, because I’m due back on the planet earth.

Sarcasm, no?

No.

Well, I’ll be…

My bad. I hadn’t gone over there and seen that ‘On the other hand…’.

Strange dude. Doesn’t he regularly call out the media for being dumb, sheeplike and equivocating?

Hence my benefit of the doubt.

Nope. Mutherfuckin’ ice tea.

Ahem. That’s Ice T.

Despite these failings, a Q4 recommitment to your responsibilities and the fundemental principles of moonbat blog commenting will make it possible for you to earn a tidy little War on Christmas bonus that will allow you to attend the next sloppy, drunken, SN orgy.

Lord Soros, I am not worthy. I will study all the points you made and double down on my efforts to, er, badger the Sadly hosts into doing thy wise bidding. All hail Lord Soros!

And Barack says:

You know, my first name is actually Swahili for “That one.” And my middle name was given to me by someone who never thought I’d be runnig for President. . . . . Contrary to the rumors swirling around about me, I was NOT born in a manger. I was born on the planet Krypton . . .

But seriously, folks . . . . Maddow had portions of the C-SPAN broadcast live during her show. C-SPAN video not up yet, but should appear here shortly:

McCain’s ‘plan’: contracting more government to the private sector “but with oversight this time, I promise”, staying in Iraq for 100 years, reducing taxes for the richest people, overturning Roe vs Wade.

Past that he’d probably croak and Christy Palin would inherit the presidency.
