Taliban said to be furious over US missile strike – Yahoo! News

The Taliban are furious about the latest apparent U.S. missile strike in Pakistan, indicating a senior militant may be among two dozen people killed, officials and residents said Sunday.

Furious! FURIOUS!

I’m laughing so hard about that that I’m seeing little swimmy black dots everywhere I look. I could be having a heart attack or a stroke, but what better way to go? Seriously.

FURIOUS!

That’s my watch word for this week…

Analysis: Palin’s words carry racial tinge

Palin’s words avoid repulsing voters with overt racism. But is there another subtext for creating the false image of a black presidential nominee “palling around” with terrorists while assuring a predominantly white audience that he doesn’t see their America?

Horseshit. Projectionist horseshit.

It’s not false, not at any level. Bill Ayers is Obama’s bud. Don’t like it? Don’t nominate the hack. As they said in that movie about the porn industry, “That’s a YP, not an MP.” I sure didn’t anoint the asshole the saviour of the universe. He wants to cozy up to Weather Underground players, that’s a YP.
