The one that's not a poorly-disguised Twilight fanfic.

No such option in this poll.

PPP, AZ -- Romney up 9%. I didn't realize that the Arizona electorate was that elderly and white. Possible D pickup -- if it is a Dodge or very old Datsun vehicle.

I think it's time to re-angle the campaign.  Paul Ryan for Vice President: One Heartbeat To A Brighter Tomorrow.

Context please.

Very mature and intelligent.

Good old Wilson Perkins Allen Opinion Research, you always know their numbers are right.

Is displaying your sock a covert endorsement of certain practices banned on Atlas?

I've just seen a tweet that sums Romney's situation right up. His campaign's so dead that he's got the baptism booked for next week.

[Lambsbread]

Offensive. I hope he gets infracted due to blatant racism.

Racism against whom?

Your people.

You're an Uncle Tom, so you probably wouldn't get it.

I don't even know who that big-boobed woman is, but apparently Naso gives a big deal about her.

Nice going, Einstein. You've destroyed the last innocent mind on the forum.

President Obama has invited Egypt's new president to meet him in New York when the United Nations General Assembly convenes in September, an administration official confirmed to The Hill.

So, Obama can meet with a Moslem fundamentalist, but not the Prime Minister of Israel.  Hmm.

What's a "Moslem"?

I though in AZ they just used the generic term, browns.

How does Landslide Lyndon avoid being on this list?

Easy, he wasn't nominated.

I'm hetero -- never in my life have I been attracted to a male, can't imagine one I would be, and I find gay sex unpleasant to think about.

Breaking News: My grandmother has also devised a model to predict who will win the election this November.  She says Obama is going to win 310 electoral votes and every swing state including Colorado.

She's correctly predicted every election since 1956, so I think we should take her word for it.

[Landslide Lyndon]

Context.

Sad

Why is this funny?

Surely you've heard the old joke about 'me thinks the lady doth protest too much'.

I love the the desperate attempt to make Romney's "middle class" comment not seem ridiculous.

$200-$250k OR LESS FOR HOUSEHOLD is considered middle income, stop twisting the words around.

a household making 250K is not middle class, unless they have 4 or more dependents.

What if there were 4 people living in a household?  $50k-$75k annually is considered middle income.

No, it's not.  The median family brings in $50,000 a year, and  if you divided it by 4 (assuming there are 2 parents and 2 children) that would be $12,500 per. capita.  Thus, $50k-$75k is actually high.  

I'm saying if there were 4 adults living in a household and each one made $50k-$75k a year, that's still considered middle income.  What if they wanted to all live in the same house for whatever reason?

That is highly atypical. We're talking about real American families, not the cast of Jersey Shore.

Maybe some people don't want to own a home or start a family, not everybody lives a traditional lifestyle.

I remember the first time my dad saw Alan Keyes on television and he turned to me and said "Where is that guy an ambassador to and how the he!! are we not at war with them?"

I must admit my phrasing in that post is...unusual. Laugh if you want, I suppose.

I blame aflietch's threads. We need to pass a constitutional amendment.

Chill, Phil.

Ok, street rat.

Wouldn't that be just awesome to lock Xahar and Phil in one room and see what happens next?

If you think the Yugoslav wars were awesome, then yeah, it would be pretty awesome.

[Joe Republic]

My favorite part of that post was that Phil selected an insult from Aladdin to direct at Xahar.
