Because It Worked So Well Last Time

Via Reuters.

Obama, who wants Congress to move a stalled climate change bill, has sought to reach out to Republicans by signaling he is open to allowing offshore drilling, providing coastlines are protected.


Because kowtowing to conservatives worked soooo well for you last time, Mr. President. At what point do we stop believing that they are just trying to be pragmatic, and start thinking that maybe Democrats have become the new moderate Republicans.

...What Josh Marshall Said.

Talkingpointsmemo.com's Josh Marshall, on the Republican's reconciliation lies.

Let's stop dancing around it. On "reconciliation" the Republicans are being such a gang of hypocritical liars it's shocking even for them. It really is. The Health Care Bill isn't being passed through reconciliation; it's being used to pass a few amendments to the bill that's already passed. The Republicans have used it numerous times and themselves and for bill's that were far bigger in budgetary terms than this bill. The whole thing is just an immense crock. And it's borderline scandalous that any of their nonsense is even being taken serious.

Jeremy Is Driving

So I bought the Jeep from Ian in August of 2006. I knew it needed work. I replaced the radiator, heater hoses, and water valve. Got it running, bought new doors, new door panels, and new interior trim peices.

And now. Three years later. With hundreds of dollars invested!!!!!! I finally...!!!!



... bought a Ford Focus station wagon.

It has low miles (84,000 on a 2000 model year), it runs great, the body is totally straight, and it has plenty of room to store dog/music equipment/dead bodies!

Family car bitches!!!!!
