Mt friend Zip says that there are five days a year that are amatuer drinking nights. New Years Eve, St. Patricks Day, Cinco De Mayo, Halloween and Arbor Day. Arbor Day? Don't ask

I bet you didn't know that frustrated conservatives HAVE to kill people because they are oppressed by political correctness. Glen Beck says so!
These people are insane. Why are they on the teevee?

facts are shameful things
Ari Fleischer calls Chris matthews shameful for pointing out the fact that Bush was President on 9/11. These people are insane. Why are they on the teevee?

Gay marriage and robot marriage. I'm sure Yglesias will be all over this.

The Great Santini
As anyone who knows me would know, growing up the movie and the book The Great Santini were hugely influential in my life and in my family. I have literally seen the movie and read the book dozens of times. In shop class, in the seventh grade, I made a wooden plaque with The Great Santini written on it that still hangs in my dad's kitchen. All of this is a long way of saying that there is a great article about the book's author Pat Conroy on espn.com. Read it. Also, read the book and see the movie. That is all.

yoda vs. rush
Over at TAPPED, in a post titled Jedi Mind Tricks, Adam Serwer explains why Obama loves the rrp's* embrace of Rush Limbaugh. Read the whole post.
The reason the Obama administration is happy to wrap Limbaugh around the GOP's neck isn't because they're afraid of him. It's because everyone outside the GOP base thinks he's repulsive. The conservative base is so consumed in the self-satisfying exercise of hating their political opponents that they've lost all perspective. They're getting their butts kicked, and they don't even know it. Worse, they seem to think they're actually winning the argument.
Perhaps the rrp needs to listen to some advice from Yoda, " But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. "

some advice for the republic party
"Never go full retard."
I don't think they're listening.
Update: Speaking of full retard, here is Alan Keyes losing his mind. As Ta-Nehisi says Keyes is a "sad, sick human being."
mickey rourke is awesome
I didn't watch the oscars but the independent spirit awards look like they were way better. Here is Mickey Rourke accepting the best actor award.
I have always liked Rourke so it is nice to see him do well. I guess I should also see the wrester.
