strangely familiar?

I made coffee, coffee, coffee and coffee plus 9 grain toast with peanut butter and did the laundry. He paces, drinks coffee, smokes paces some more and types like a demon possessed. His mind is always going 90 to nothing {you can almost hear his brain thinking.}

Ah memories, her final evaluation of the time:

Robert Stacy McCain is like following Columbo, watching a Prima Ballerina, Academy Award Winner and a whirling dervish all rolled into one. It has taken me 48 hours to recoup.

She put it better than I did.

Don’t miss Stacy’s coverage as well.

Via Glenn we see that Congressman Tim Ryan doesn’t seem to have the courage of his convictions:

About one dozen protesters. many of them carrying signs, was apparently all it took to cancel Congressman Tim Ryan’s appearance at the Youngstown Community Health Center Tuesday.

Correct me if I’m wrong but don’t congressmen spend tens of thousands of dollars to convince people to give them this job? Gateway Pundit nails it:

In his cancellation notice his staff made clear:

“Don’t get me wrong, Congressman Ryan will debate anyone, anytime.”

He’ll debate anyone at anytime.
…Just not in public and not at a town hall meeting.

Meeting with the people who elect him is part of the job, if he is not willing to do it he should step aside and let someone else do so.

the Fishbait Miller theory of Nancy Pelosi:

“The Speaker always carries a number of votes in her pocket,” he said, meaning that some members who voted ‘no’ would have voted ‘yes’ if needed.

“I had a number of members who thanked us after because they could vote no.”

I think we should follow Tom Blumer advice on this.

Well, okay Bart, who were these Dems who didn’t have the courage to vote their convictions, and instead wish to go back to their constituents and claim they didn’t support the ObamaCare monstrosity? (crickets …)

Better yet, pal, don’t tell us. It would be much more convenient for November voters to presumptively assume that their no-voting Democratic congressman really was a “yes” until Bart bailed them out. That works for me, and it would work for many other like-minded Americans — which is why the press will more than likely pretend that the CNA-Stupak interview doesn’t exist.

Works for me.

Moron Morning Joe today Ron Paul and Joe took turns hitting the Republicans over the head saying there was no difference. Paul Suggested we needed “new blood” in congress. Gee Where can the Republicans find it:

Maybe if the show had gone to CPAC they might have met people like Rick Barber

and Col Allen West.

Somehow they missed Les Phillip

and couldn’t find Katherine Jenerette.

They haven’t interviewed Patrick Murray

Or the incredible Patricia Sullivan:

Some guy with a Fedora managed to find this new blood out there. With a little effort Joe and Mika could do so too. Hey Joe for $1k a week plus travel I’ll do it for you!

Update: Smitty finds another Diamond named Christine O’Donnell. Another one that hasn’t made the show yet. Oh and btw The “moron” at the start of the post believe it or not, was a typo. I didn’t notice it till I got ready to put on this update but rather than just pull it I figured I’d use a strike since it was up for a while and I don’t want to duck the error since it was pejorative.
