Given the (very much appreciated) discussion of a needed face lift for the Turley blog, I wanted to remind you that there are some who are in even greater need for such intervention.
Families of Shar Pei pets have long known to take care when reaching for towels.
Buddha,
You tell em.
CharlesC: May I borrow your all too approipriate and multi-purpose opening line?
“I wonder how dumb/delusional somebody has to be” …to not notice that this is the wrinkly-dog thread? Srsly, look at the picture.
This is the ‘Awwww of the week’ only on Sunday instead of Friday. Get with the program wing-nuts.
Could the ‘Awwww of the week’ be Professor Turley’s version of an open thread for all the pent up craziness and crazies. This is actually relevant to another thread on a ‘nip-tuck’ for the blog. If this is the Professor’s stealthy (and perhaps more manageable) open thread then I’ll change my vote to ‘no’ on the other thread because I like the pictures and silliness of this method better.
I’ll also post this bit of ‘Whoa’:
“Mayor Nagin, wife quarantined after flight”

and this bit of ‘Whoa!! why am I not surprised’?
“Key Figures in Global Battle Against Illegal Arms Trade Lost in Air France Crash
ARGENTINA: Argentine campaigner Pablo Dreyfus and Swiss colleague Ronald Dreyer battled South American arms and drug trafficking”

I wonder how dumb/delusional somebody has to be to think that spewing factually inaccurate and generally hateful words here will have any impact on any of us. If anything, it is counter-productive to their causes as it most likely strengths our resolve against them. However, my mother always taught me not to argue with a drunk or a fool, so….
You mean you’re not supposed to dry yourself off with a Shar Pei? Oh, oh my.
This Country is so screwed with liberal Democrats running Congress and a President that thinks his job is to read speeches well from a teleprompter.
Sounds like the Obama team is struggling:
NYT MONDAY: TENSIONS GRIP OBAMA ECONOMIC TEAM… DEVELOPING…
Big government spending programs having opposite desired effect…mortage interest rates, US Treasury notes rates headed up dramatically.
Government Economists “we told you this would happen.”
On the other hand, having read some of the other love/logic nuggets you’ve left behind for digital archaeologists to marvel over in day’s yet to come, I’m pretty sure you’re not sure what you’re talking about either.
jew,
Oh yeah, that’s it. I’m a racist. I think I’ll go with the huge stack of evidence in my postings here that illustrate I’m not a racist and leave the bulk of my defense at that. Since in my previous statement I didn’t refer to Jews – uppercase or otherwise, we need to get a little clarity here.
Am I insulting your tribe?
Because no where in that previous statement did I mention a group by a derogatory name except for “morons”. Didn’t mention Jews once. I checked. In fact, I like Jews. Plenty of evidence for that here too. Morons? Eh, not so much. So unless morons are the tribal affiliation you’re upset and accusing me of racism over, I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
‘This Document is Toilet Paper For the Americans If They Want It’
THE Obama Administration now confirms that at least 74 former Guantanamo detainees have resumed terror ist activities after claiming they weren’t terrorists.
These dangerous prisoners should never have been cleared for release. Why did interrogators fail to find the cracks in their stories and alibis?
Why wasn’t more intelligence gathered to predict they’d rejoin al Qaeda or the Taliban? In a word, politics. Gitmo interrogations have been emasculated to placate critics of waterboarding and other “torture,” say senior administration officials.
Even known terrorists are spared high-pressure techniques — tactics that have worked before in squeezing out information.
For that matter, Gitmo doesn’t even do “interrogations” anymore. They’re now called interviews, and they’re voluntary.
Many recidivists used the interviews as an opportunity to argue for release, spinning familiar excuses for why they were in Afghanistan after 9/11. They were freed after interrogators, many of them inexperienced, for the most part bought their sob stories and review boards judged them least likely to return to jihad.
“We have on numerous occasions gotten literally straight-from-the-schoolhouse interrogators who are being stuck in with these hardened jihadists,” a top security official at Gitmo told me. “And they essentially look at them and laugh.”
He says many are 19-year-olds who lack battlefield skills and don’t understand the first thing about jihad and militant Islam.
“They get played by detainees, who end up getting released because the interrogators believe them when they say they don’t know anything and just want to go home and be a goat herder,” he says.
As a condition of their release, the Gitmo detainees signed pledges to renounce violence and enroll in “reintegration programs” in countries that agreed to repatriate them.
Terrorist Said Ali al-Shihri went through the resort-like Saudi program after his release in 2007.
Afterward, he helped plan last year’s deadly attack on the US Embassy in Yemen as al Qaeda’s operations chief there.
Another Gitmo recidivist, Slimane Hadj Abderahmane, laughed at the anti-violence agreement he signed. Once free, he re-engaged in terror and said, “This document is toilet paper for the Americans if they want it.”
buddhaislaughing, you are a racist.
“Families of Shar Pei pets have long known to take care when reaching for towels.”
never having owned a Shar Pei, I can see the resemblence of the Shar Pei to the towel. Much in the same a nation must be careful when electing a leader to ensure they are actually getting what they voted for.
How is that for being on topic?
The outlines of the vast right wing conspiracy begins to take shape.
You morons are out to stay off topic in every blog thread you post to, aren’t you?
Very crafty.
And when I say crafty, I mean mildly retarded. And when I say mildly retarded, I don’t mean mentally disadvantaged by genetics or illness, I mean willfully ignorant and stupid.
The outlines of an Obama Doctrine are taking shape.
The President of the United States’s world view can be summarized as “Everybody is a little bit guilty, especially Israel.”
His demand in Cairo that Israel make major concessions before Palestinians recognize Israel’s right to exist was a pander of the rankest sort.
What a difference a year and the audience make.
Exactly a year before his Cairo speech, on June 4, 2008, candidate Obama told the American Israel Public Affairs Committee he would “never force Israel to the negotiating table” or to make “concessions.”
(LIBERAL) Retired U.S. State Official, Wife Indicted on Charges of Spying for Cuba for 30 Years
There is no question the intelligence information these two gathered and spirited off to Cuba also ended up in the hands of Saddam Hussain in Iraq. They need to be tried for treason, the accomplises found, and the law’s penalty applied. More proof that liberal ideology is dangerous to the safety and security of the world.

BRUSSELS – Europe fell far to the right Sunday as tens of millions of people voted in European Parliament elections, with conservative parties favored in most countries.
Election results & polls are showing Conservative wins over their opposition in Germany, Italy, France, Belgium, Britain, Spain and some smaller countries.
This amid theories these elections are a referendum on the United States election of a liberal President.

Obama is proving every day he is dumber than a rock:
“If you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world.”
“We can no longer afford to spend as if deficits do not matter and waste is not our problem.”

I thought the name of this film was “The Shaggy D.A.”, not the “The Baggy D.A.”. The Shaggy Baggy D.A.? It’s not that I have anything against a Shar-Pei, but this is not the Disney fare I was fed as a kid.
