He’s looking to upset Margolis and Noonan as Dumbest Bogger Evah.

Gavin adds:
Obama promised to cooperate with Republicans, but Republicans have broken his promise by not-he-cooperating with them.

The plumber promised to work on the sink, but shockingly, he broke that promise by not making me stop telling him not to fix the sink, and then working on the sink.

Disaster for you, for you promised me a rose garden and I am not accepting gardens from you at this time.

RD Laing would love what you wrote. Happily for him, he is not alive to witness the madness of the Republican mind.

This crops up the most for the deprecated S tag, but also sometimes bites people for HTML lists. I’ve been whining for an actual preview script and/or a list of permitted tags for a long while.

Brilliant!

I give up on the strikeout. Like a real lover, it only shows off when it’s trying to tempt me.

chocolatepie, I have sadly no TJ’s anymore. I’ve been doing without since 2003 when I moved back to the South from the West and now rely on the kindness of strangers and in-laws for TJ goodies.

Getting back to the “chav” theme, they’re playing the National Front card. e.g., all the troll postings here.

Now, as far as the GOP is concerned,
This was a triumph.

“gt” strike “lt” “gt” /strike “lt” works

No, it’s a pro-business policy, to keep wages & benefits down, & profits up.

And since only white people are wonderful enough to own businesses, it’s pro-hunkie.

Without a single Republican voting for the bill, his high-profile visit to Capitol Hill on Tuesday came to exactly naught

Obama just offered the GOP its first shot at something approaching respectability in more than a decade – & they wiped their crack with it. I’m betting he’s laughing his ass off at all the free mid-term ad copy he just got … not quite “exactly naught,” old tit.

his failure to get even the squishiest moderate Republican – including the 11 entertained in the White House by Rahm Emanuel last night – to back him is not merely a big score for Rep Eric Cantor, Republican Whip, and the rest of the GOP leadership

The GOP is basically on fire right now, & playing the United Front (heh) card is about all they’ve got for a fire-extinguisher. Obama may already be planning for a future bill that they CAN’T bloc-vote on without sustaining heavy damage (as in, a lot heavier than what they just did to themselves) … seems he’s quite the sly fox that way. We all know how a lot of those fox-hunts end up, don’t we now old chav? No dead Reynard, & a bunch of sweaty drunk gits massaging their sore arses.

Anonymous troll isn’t anonymous.
U R DOING IT WRONG.

My $0.02 worth?

We’re ALL trolls – whether we know it or nay – but the problem is, this lovely planet that we’ve been blithely trolling for so long is now starting to troll us back – & in this case, there’s no such place as “offline” in which to hide. Guess who’s got the REAL banhammer here? Oh yeah … & she doesn’t do apologies – but believe me, she’s got one seriously fuckin’ brutal killfile – just ask stegasaurus.

Can we look forward to less pseudobipartisan ass-kissing in the future?

Sadly, no.
