After about 14 hours sleep, I’m feeling a bit better, but still way below my norm, so I doubt I’ll be back to replying to comments and returning visits today.

It’s nice to be out of the cellar at last 😀
Short Takes:
From AP/Google: In a secretly taped recording, Republican Senate candidate Sharron Angle badmouths the GOP establishment and wheedles a minor-party candidate to support her campaign, offering help opening doors in Washington if she’s elected.
The roughly made recording offers an unvarnished look into back-room politics, with tea party favorite Angle alternately nudging and cajoling candidate Scott Ashjian, whose support could be crucial in her bid to oust Majority Leader Harry Reid.
Not only does it expose her utter hypocrisy, but also, it should make her big Republican Party fundraiser in DC tomorrow most interesting.
From Alternet: A possible terror plot against European cities has confirmed longstanding fears among Western security services that Al-Qaeda and its allies could try to recreate the 2008 onslaught on Mumbai.
Please keep the people od Europe in your thoughts, hopes, prayers, or whatever you do.
From TPM: Now this is just hilarious. It turns out that a recent Harry Reid ad that attacked Sharron Angle for her alleged right-wing positions on health care in the state legislature appears to have been false. And Reid’s source for the claim was…Sharron Angle’s false statements about her record in the state legislature.
That’s the problem with the Nevada Leg Hound. The fool believes whatever he hears from Republicans.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
You dare to call Sharron “I’ll-Share-My-Juice” Angle a hypocrite for being recorded offering political favors to Scott Ashjian if he dropped out of the race? Why, right there on Angle’s very own campaign website she promises this:
Oh, wait a second … that makes you 100% correct! Never mind.
