How is that spelled again?

Aibohphobia - the irrational fear of palindromes, words that are spelled the same forwards or backwards.

WOW! Bob good thing you don't have that particular fear.

Ya know, it's good to know I have such a friend

Editor's Note: this is not word for word, but a general feel of my conversation last night at the bar. Good thing there's a gun show today for me to regain my man cred.

Taupe of the Chain: Aw, that's cute

Me: What?

Taupe of the Chain: You're phone case, it's cute

Me: It's not cute

Taupe of the Chain: Yes, it's cute

Me: You can call it nice, awesome, neat, don't call it cute.

Taupe of the Chain: It's cute

Me: Hand over your man card, now

Taupe of the Chain: You've had your man card revoked

Me: Why

Taupe of the Chain: Saying you feel icky

Me; If I can't describe my physical condition by saying icky, you can't call my phone case cute

.....and it went on

How do you tell if a politician is lying?

Their mouth is moving. Senator(soon to be ex)HealthClaire McCasketkill had this to say

Democrats are "overpromising" about the benefits of healthcare, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) said this morning.

The Missouri Democrat said her party has probably oversold the legislation that just became law.

"The side on which I'm on, that voted for the bill, probably is overpromising, [has] not been clear enough about the fact that this is going to be an incremental approach over time, [and] the benefits aren't going to be felt by most Americans immediately," McCaskill told MSNBC's Mornine Joe.

Nevertheless, the Republicans have been over the top in demonizing the health bill, McCaskill said.

"Chicken little is running the Republican party right now, and when the sky doesn't fall then all those independent voters out there go, 'Gosh, they sure told us it was going to be terrible and this isn't so bad," she said.

"So the truth, as always, is somewhere in the middle."

Funny, but John Boehner doesn't look like a rooster to me.

Pot, Kettle.... Kettle, Pot

So people like Emanuel Cleaver, Russ Carnahan, Louis Slaughter and the like feel threatened by their understandably frustrated citizens subjects.

Just a point there to these esteemed reviled politicians, you've passed over boisterous opposition, the Health Care Reform Act. which if people choose to resist it's overreaching power grab, a visit by armed agents of the government ready to visit violence upon those who would resist the taking of their property. And while you ignored us as we were on our soapbox, you will feel our wrath at the ballot box.
