Palin is Peggy Hill....McCain is Cotton Hill

Ahem, Senator McCain... Barack Obama is "The One," not "That one"
This one and that one shake hands.

During last night's debate, John McCain referred to Barack Obama as "that one." That one what?

Can we skip the next debate and hold the election the first Tuesday of next week? It's time to put this POW horse out of its misery. John McCain used to crash planes and bang strippers, and now he's wandering around the stage, looking for his car keys. A lifetime in politics, obliterated at the very end by Steve Schmidt and that Palin creature. Asking himself what kind of country prefers a black guy with a name as Arabic as Mohammed Atta's to a decorated war hero.

John, it this really how you want to go out? Calling Obama a terrorist behind his back and a "one" to his face? You've come this far without snapping, but you're turning into Grandpa at Christmas dinner. You don't like how any of the grandkids turned out, your dentures hurt and you're two scotches away from calling Grandma a slut.

Bob Schneider, CNN:

"Palin’s answers do not lack confidence, they lack coherence."

Uly is an official school kid, he brought home a bug and went to the doctor. He was given Amoxicillin and got the a rash and throat constriction, a reaction to the med that only 10% of kids get from this. No more 'cillins for our Uly.

I hope, you hope, everywhere a hope. I hope.

Katie Couric as Tammy Faye Baker

This vet is a hero. He popped up with these signs at the GOP Connvention and no one could get him to put the signs down for what seemed like five minutes. He rules.

it' the best day ever! uly had been waiting and asking for the first day of kindergarten for over a year now. the first thing he asked me when i picked him up was, "mom, can i go back again tomorrow?". mia and i are doing ok so far, even though it is very quite without him in the morning. go uly!

uly is going for olympic gold!
