Sunday Morning Comin’ Down


"Pass That Dutch" Edition

Traveling these last few days. Everything's a blur and sorry for the light posting; whit luck I'll be able to slog back the the castle late-late tonight.

I have lots of Sunday notes stuffed in my hobo bindle (Kathleen Parker denying the existence of a "white culture" and Roland Burris blurting out a little Malcolm X were especially hilarious) but basically if you slept through the Mouse Circus,

A) Good on you!

B) Here's what you missed:

I know what the film is but what is the song?

Sorry to be OT, but what the hell, these are parlous times...

Now that Roland Burris is going to be safely ensconced in the U.S. Senate, I look forward to Jane Hamsher's next screed at FDL savaging Caroline Kennedy and telling us why she's unqualified to be in the same august organization.

Caroline Kennedy was attorney general of New York....oh wait, that's not right. But on with the coronation!

No, anon. Caroline wasn't the AG.

But since Hamsher's been ripping Kennedy for a while now, for her lack of gravitas, or whatever Hamsher thinks she lacks (as she continues to tote the hod for Hillary...) and doing it at precisely the same time she's been flacking for a political whore like Roland Burris to be put into the Senate, it's worth pointing out that little jog in logic and values. :o)

While Caroline Kennedy has not held public office, neither did Hillary Clinton. Both women were surrounded by politics because of their families, and had extensive executive experience in running various charities and foundations. Both Hillary and Caroline are distinguished attorneys in their own right.

Although, I do think that Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney might be a better choice for the Senate seat.

Hobo bindle? Is that the same thing as a Waltzing Matilda?

What's this I see you won a Weblog Award?

Congratulations my man!

Pinch the nearest castle wench on the ass and have a well deserved top shelf drink.
I am, in your honor.
Slainte, Driftglass!

But if I watch that video and think of Cokie Roberts at the same time, I'll get sick.

Congrats on the Weblog Award, and ditto what BK said.

YAY Driftglass!!! *waves pom poms*.... really :D

Best Individual Blogger is not even good enough a title for what you do here! Congrats just the same.

And those who would try, attempt to try, think or otherwise even ponder Hillary Clinton in the same terms intelligence-wise as Caroline Kennedy please stfu right now. You might start comparing HRHHRC to Sara Palin and have a better go of it. Brick dumb comes to mind.

Look I think Obama fired up alot of people.... and Caroline Kennedy is of the age now that women frequently step out to fulfill other aspects of their lives. I say GOOD FOR HER and I would think NY would be FAR better served by her than hrc EVER did. JH can go shit in her hat for banging on CK along with the other hillary hags. gah.

There's a quality to CK's INTELLIGENCE that is totally lacking in the likes of hrc. Totally lacking.

I'm off to visit my dearest love.... the OCEAN. *swooooon*

Congrabulations, drifty! Yer now a member of an elite group -- just like the Tank Paratroopers!

Seriously, it's good to see you getting at least some small measure of the recognition you deserve.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy, either, even if a single drop of the prose you distill smokes and sizzles its way right through the hull of the S.S. Grifters On Parade.

I'd say a blogger Palm d'Or was also merited for those mad Photoshop skilz, and the many hilarious and sometimes disturbing ways you've employed them.
