guy who was once issued a first aid kit by the Naval Reserve
What’s this Naval Reserve? Is it anything like Inner Circle Navy Rum?

Thanks for the info zebbidies spring. And you’re very kind to describe the Electoral College as “peculiar.”

However, if you guys feel that you simply must have an elected king, don’t mind us – we’ll be happy staying right here with a planet between us and you.

Yeah, well there’s no need to gloat about your good fortune, but if you can give King Dubya’s pal the boot we’d be appreciative.

I’m so thankful for Sadly, No, that you can’t even imagine. The people who used to come to my blog (wingnuts) just thought I had lost it and accused me of being paranoid when I started writing about the dangers of the growth of Christian fundies. You know, paranoid, as opposed to being justifiably concerned about anyone not Christian in the U.S. (i.e. liberals & Muslims). I lurked here for a long time. Wingnuts still liked my blog, even though I had come out with my decidedly non-wingnut voting record. Finally, the wingnuts began to see that what they were taking as “jokes” that I was not that conservative weren’t really so much jokes. Blessed Be!

But without sites like this one, I would’ve thought I was alone on the web in terms of this crap. So thank you again, and XOXOXOXOXO. I have tried so hard to turn friends from the dark side of wingnuttia, but will they come?

Sadly, No.

Though I notice Elder uses the popular Wingnut Conceit of the Liberal Friends Who Don’t Argue Back Or Know Anything At All.

So that’s ok.

From Larry Elder’s column:

I knew that, like Custer, I sat surrounded by liberals.

So it wasn’t the Native Americans that killed Custer! It was those perfidious liberals.

I hope Howard the Coward doesn’t pull a Bush2000 on you all. Do you have paper back up for your voting machines?

Arky – Cthulhusexual

In Australia we don’t use voting machines. Just pencils and paper. Voting machines are just too unreliable and open to fraud so we never took them up.

Just like we use the Westminster system instead of your (frankly peculiar) electoral college system and an all-powerful president. Having maintained a constitutional monarchy with a powerless monarch, we have felt no desire to risk reinstating the Divine Right of Kings on the off chance that we’d get a local Princess Diana for our gossip mags to salivate over.

However, if you guys feel that you simply must have an elected king, don’t mind us – we’ll be happy staying right here with a planet between us and you.

I’d like to say a big thank you to the folks who write and comment here. You make me laugh when nobody else can.

And it doesn’t really make sense for an atheist like me to be “thankful” for things like my job and my health, but I’m all for taking a minute to appreciate what you have and how lucky you’ve been. And what I really appreciate today is that the lump on my cat that I was sure was cancer turned out to be an infection and it’s going away (and he’s being a really good sport about the antibiotic I’m giving him). And my sister’s diabetic, hyperthyroid, 4-pound microcat has pulled back from the edge and it looks like she’s going to make it.

According to close forensic examination, that picture is not a turkey wing (left or right). It is instead the jawbone of an ass, battered and deep-fried. Mister Leonard Pierce, I accuse you of being an accomplice after the fact on 100 charges of Philistinocide, for attempting to dispose of the murder weapon used by the co-accused Mr Samson.

i’d like to 36th the warm feelings. i travel a ton and i’m happy to know that no matter how crappy the hotel, as long as it has wireless or some sort of thing in the wall then i’ve got SN and it’s all good.

or bad. it’s all bad. but that’s not the point.

I, too, am very thankful for S,N! It’s been good for me to have a place where folk understand why the last seven years or so have left me in a bad mood/somewhat depressed. We’re an odd and all too rare breed, and thank you, Seb, for helping us find each other.

I’m thankful for spoofs like Gary Ruppert Murdoch, who remind me the people he mimics are ten times dumber (and therefore funnier) than they are vile.

I’m thankful the cold front that was supposed to blow through at noon held off until later so I got to hang out in the yard until it was time to cook (75 – 80 degrees, global warming vas ist das?)

And I’m thankful to a multitude of nurses and doctors who are probably better off not knowing what a relentlessly sarcastic bastard I’d grow up to be. (Shhh!)

A-C

D. Sidhe – The Life of Birds kept me stuck in front of the TV an entire weekend. Teh awesome

Craig – I hope Howard the Coward doesn’t pull a Bush2000 on you all. Do you have paper back up for your voting machines?

Let me join in offering my wishes for a pleasant and happy thanksgiving to all my friends on this board. Sanity is hard enough to achieve, let alone keep, and this board is a constant supply of it.

I’m thankful for my roof and my job, family and friends, the peace I’ve enjoyed over the last couple years, and whatever hope I can find I get from them, and you guys.

Oh, and tell Bimler I went for the Ardbeg…

I am thankful that the Mexislamohomonupasecularofascist “War on Thanksgiving” hasn’t taken THIS away from us:

What does this mean? That the party faithful are voting him down too?
Not so much the party faithful… “electorate” = the electoral district of Bennelong (a chunk of suburban Sydney). If the voters there follow the national swing against Howard’s party, then someone else will be representing them in parliament after tomorrow.

The Aussies are finally realising that Howard’s “loyalty to America” is considerably greater than his loyalty to Australia.

So with any luck, you can look forward to a future column by Steyn. He will explain that the failure of Australia to re-elect their proper leader is one more reason for supporting President-for-Life Musharraf (who understands that democracy is a fragile flower that is sometimes best supported by postponing it indefinitely).
