Experience wasn’t so important to voters in November 2008. Now the voters and their elected ingenue are discovering that experience is painful and that Chicago politics and world politics ain’t the same thang.

Experientia docet dolor. Experience teaches painfully. Man up, Democrats!

And, maybe, just maybe, he can talk the Olympics to Chicago?

What a waste of Presidency.

Please treat Obama with the same respect and courtesy that Liberal Democrats gave to President Bush.

It’s amazing how many bumper stickers you see around town with the Texas flag and the word “Secede” over it.

If they gave us a vote, I’m not sure how I’d vote. I don’t think, given the political divisions and the fact that even 9/11 couldn’t bring us together, that the US will survive my kids generation.

Lincoln said that we were the “last, best hope of Earth.” Ephesus was once blessed too, but look at it now. No reason to think that we can’t end up in much the same shape as Ephesus is now.

Don’t forget, everybody, to sing the International tonight when they hang the victorious Chinese flag over the Empire State Building.

What is it with Amazon? You cannot find Sarah Palin’s forthcoming book by searching under either her name as author, or Lynn Vincent as author, or the title “Going Rogue”. Nor is the book featured as a bestseller on Amazon’s home page, the way it is at Barnes & Noble. The only way I was able to find the book at Amazon was to go to the “Books” page, and then click on “Bestsellers”. And then — guess what? Despite Amazon making it so difficult to purchase, the book is No. 1 there too, and has been for the last two days.

These liberals are deathly afraid of Sarah Palin!

It strikes me that Hussein Obama is still trying to vote “present” in just about everything he does. His entire political career before moving into the Red Shed was spent not making a decision he could be held accountable for (perpetually voting “present” being the most visible indicator) and it doesn’t seem to me that he’s changed much.

Well, as some people keep repeating, “Elections have consequences.”

Apparently Ms. Parker just was not into thinking about that possibility when she decided to support the vacuous Senator from Illinois.

Pres. Obama is doing (or trying to do) exactly what he said he would do and what his record (such as it was) suggested he would do. Anyone who supported him has nothing to complain about.

Mark, I was cleaning out my office today and found a funny email I got about what it would mean if Texas seceded. Something like us having a significant amount of the resources of the U.S. Can’t find it online, unfortunately.

If Texas goes out, it needs to demand that Missouri come with it. After all, Texas was originally a Missouri project.

FW Ken stole my thunder. I don’t get all the “buyer’s remorse” going around. I don’t know what about Obama’s campaign or record suggested he would do anything different than he’s done.

But I have found that the Obama supporters sure get testy when you bring it up in conversation. They know, and it’s pretty embarrassing for them right now, I think.

Anyone with the research skills of a fifth-grader could have foreseen what an Obama presidency was going to bring. Thanks Kathleen, Wall Street morons and all Obama voters. You may deserve what you got but the rest of us are having to deal with it too.

So the liberal Amazons have thrown everything they have at the little point guard from Alaska, and she is still the high scorer?

Even my reflexively liberal neighbor told me last night he thinks Obama is a wimp on foreign policy.

The Obamarrhoids’ beliefs present the unnerving sentiment that John Derbyshire’s We Are Doomed is wildly optimistic. The competence and professionalism of the latest left vanguard, though, gives cause for hope.

Not hardly CJ. Davy and Sam just rolled over. Without Tennessee, there would be no Texas.

I like “a cat in a dog eat dog world”….

John1,

You forgot sumpim. The Austins, father Moses and son Stephen F., were both Missourians.

But I once saw a map of the state of origin of Missourians circa 1860. From St. Louis to the Arkansas border was pretty much solidly Tennessee. So you’re right in one respect. Missouri was Tennessee’s earliest and most successful colony.

That reminds me. I think I’ll have to reread The Raven for the umpteenth time.

Funny how when we Texans start talking about secession, all of a sudden folks from Missou to Tennessee want to come along with us…and the New Yorkers and Californians remain strangely silent.

Chris – sorry, but no chance we’d take Missouri along this time. We’d have to annex Oklahoma too, and we simply can’t have that, now can we.

As Mencken once said, democracy is the idea that the common man know what he wants and deserves to get it good and hard. Well, guess what?

Mark,

Ah well, I’ll just have to move down there then.

On second thought, I’ve suddenly gained a certain amount of admiration for Missouri.
