Re: THE 2012 POLITICS THREAD

I thought the blue font was pretty clear. Do you need someone to spoon-feed your your Farina as well? You are, by far, one of the deepest thinkers on the entire playground. I just know it.

I read Mother Jones and Daily Kos every hour, plus watch Ed Schultz every night. Takes care of my thinking. Oh, I also love pictures posted on Facebook by fellow members of the local soviet.

Ringing the bell never hurts.

He brings us all together.

 

Re: THE 2012 POLITICS THREAD

I actually know OOP away from the boards...have worked alongside of him. He's a better guy than you are all giving him credit for. Really good egg.

OOP's gonna be here in a few hours and you're all in big trouble.

A noteworthy gun control piece in Newsweek's online arm, The Daily Beast, by the polymath David Mamet.
