Allow me to explain. No....there is too much. Allow me to sum up:

bla-bla-bla-Medicare
bla-bla-bla-gun control
bla-bla-bla-crusade
bla-bla-bla-Toady mutehammer
bla-bla-bla-religion and medicine
bla-bla-bla-polls

So now we're semi-rerailed. Welcome back!

I have about 20 pages to catch up on.  It's going to take me a while.  So in the meantime, I don't know if this has been posted here yet, but it's worth mention if not.

Don't worry, most of it is un-election-related derailrguments.

Still on a more advanced level of political debate than I get anywhere else, so reading it keeps me sharp.  I might skip the gun control portion, though.  Getting kinda sick of that topic lately.

But mostly I was just disclaimering on the slight chance that link might have been posted already.

I think this quote is worth reading at least.
St. Louis, MO: The following statement was released by Perry Akin, Campaign Manager for Todd Akin for Senate, in response to the Rasmussen poll released this morning:

“The fact that Claire McCaskill is only polling at 48% after 72 hours of constant negative attacks on Todd Akin shows just how weak she is. If she can’t break fifty percent after a week like this, Democrats should ask Claire to step down. Todd is in this race to win; we will close this gap and win in November with the support of the grassroots in Missouri and across America.”

Edit: Speaking of completely bizarre gloating

I believe we did talk about the Romney funded by death squads thing it in passing, something about Romney being a bad caricature of the comic book evil ceo archetype.

Oh. And there is this: http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/texas-judge-warns-possible-civil-war-president-obama-230545603.html

Yep, cause Obama is gonna sell us out to the United Nations and send in the UN troops to invade America, we need to raise taxes and hire more sheriffs deputies to fight in the civil war against socialism that might raise your taxes and pay for more sheriffs deputies.  ::)

There's a lot of crossposting between here, the progressive not-rage thread, the WTF thread, and the "Amazingly Stupid Things You Heard People Say" thread.

Not out of inattention or confusion on the part of the posters, mostly just because the campaign season is filled with with so many WTF-stupid things that induce rage.

See this is why it was a bad idea to give the UN that huge army they have.

It is seriously messed up how much of a joke the Peacekeepers are. Not only do they never actually keep the peace, but they've set up sex slavery rings in places they've been deployed more than once.

Obama use whistleblower to train his mad ninja skill before ripping Ben Laden's clones apart from atop a Giant Bald Eagle, and Romney would probably support trying Assange for espionage. So they have nothing to argue about here.

EDIT: The Republican Convention is delayed for fear of a tropical storm. Apparently in 2008 it was a hurricane. When you attack the climate, the climate strike back!

Curious if anyone on that side of the aisle has found a way to blame Obama, the Democrats or Iran for the storm yet.
Also, pansies. Just board up the windows of the Tampa Convention Center and break out the kegs. That's what everyone ELSE on the Florida coast would do.

On a personal note, I just realized Paul Ryan looks eerily like my dentist. If he starts making stump speeches about the need for Americans to floss more, I'm officially gonna be freaked out.

"President Obama uses contacts within the Democrats to contact Socialist Muslim Weather Nuke Machine allies in Iran, refuses to explain self to American people."
