You're wrong on this one, Rachel. Mr. Justice Thomas IS his own joke. He remains silent during oral arguments to avoid making that obvious.

I've been reading about Hilary on the Hill and the GOP. Seriously, would they have been happy with anything short of something that would have allowed them an open door to throw Obama out and take over? They are going to beat this attack into the ground, avoiding the serious issues that she raised - figuring out what went wrong, and how to avoid it in the future. It's not that difficult, unless you have nothing of substance of your own to offer.

Can you do a little real research on this story that is going to haunt her for the rest of her life: Beyonce DID NOT LIPSYNC. She was singing to an instrumental backing track. There was bad reporting by novice reporters with no background in the subject. Here is an article by an expert -- run with it. http://www.slate.com/articles/arts/culturebox/2013/01/beyonce_lip_syncing_at_the_inauguration_musician_mike_doughty_says_she_was.html

I wonder if Sen. Rand Paul reads every single piece of mail, in all forms, that come into his office.

In other news, John Boehner has a sad because all the President's horses and all the President's men won't put the House Republican caucus back together again.

Chairman Reince Priebus wants suggestions on how to relate to the electorate? His own former associates, reasonable republicans, have been telling him what he needs to know for years, and he's been steadfastly ignoring them. DECONTAMINATE YOURSELVES FROM RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM. You've become a pernicious infection in the american body politic, a christian-fudamentalist Al Quaida, fighting to impose a wrathful and unforginving theocracy on what can still be a freedom-loving democratic republic.

If you revert to merely being the party of large corporations, (corporations that our society needs, once reasonably restrained,) then debate, compromise, in other words GOVERNING, becomes possible again, and you will be less inclined towards the organized election fraud that you proudly call REDMAPPING. You boast about stealing elections, scapgoating immigrants, and forcing women to bear children against their will (which, far more often than not, forces men to become fathers against their will), and you wonder why the fastest growing sectors of the electorate hate you? You don't wonder, you liar, you choose not to know.

McConnell will have a Tea Party challenge in 2014!!!! Yahoo!! That will save us a lot of trouble!! However, Carl Rove bought Rand Pauls' election in Kentucky so RUN ASHLEY JUDD-FILE YOUR PAPER WORK!!!

I live in Louisville, KY and would like to take time to apologize to everyone for Sen. Rand Paul. He is an embarassment. At time, I can't pick who is more embarassiing...Rand Paul or Mitch McConnel. I can only hope they get voted out. Maybe Rand Paul will run for president (no chance in hell he would be elected) and he will have to give up his Senate seat as in KY, you can't run for both.

Is it possible that the whales accredit the dolphins for the 'save the whale' movement, and this is their way of giving a little bit back to their sea-I-ity?

As for McCain's quirks: two things explain most of his present mindfulness (no pun intended). Hillary lost to Barack and Barack beat him. and Kerry lost to Bush. Yoju can't understand that? Neither does John McCain, so that means you're half way to understanding John McCain. Congratulations!

As for Clarence Thomas...What??? Lawyers are sick people; they could learn much from whales.

On filibuster reform: give 'em Heck Harry rides again. (waddiya mean. "What?")

The North Korean missile test have always been about you, or in plurality youen. In North Korean that translates to Un, as in Kim-Jong Un. Get it? Have a great day!
