Although, there is enough interpretation room to see this as simply a dissipitating [sic] love story or virginal confrontation, I believe this song is telling the story of a Jewish prisoner in a German concentration camp.

I realize that Mercer uses advanced vocabulary here, but I think there’s at least one guy for every song who interprets it as a “story of a Jewish prisoner in a German concentration camp.” On the plus side, Springsteen gets a new pair of wings every time a song is misinterpreted.

Kathleen Parker on Laura Ingraham: Laura, the Cucumber Queen

Definition of Cucumber Queen: In gay terminology, a person who enjoys having phallic-shaped vegetables or objects pushed up his ass.

You know the person who paid for that billboard has got to be nuts. From his website:

For the love of my country, I later became interested in its direction. especially after 911. I became interested in news and wanting answers for a lot that wasn’t being told on the normal Liberal TV News stations. I started listening to talk radio stations and started reading a few books about politics, though I still appreciated the information from Fox New Network. It didn’t take too long after, I realized the danger of liberalism, and where it’s taking us today.

Arnold Thompson commenting on Fox News’ “only someone who watches Fox News would find this funny” recent photo editing:

Scum bag Republicans. Someone needs to take legal action and make them accountable by busting their bank accounts and/or putting them in jail.

My Dream:
1. Pass a law that states all identified Republican go to jail as part of a ‘clean America up’ campaign.
2. Brand an elephant on their forehead for public humiliation.
3. And practice social Darwinism by enslaving them to a life time of work for my capitalistic benefit. Tit for tat as that is what they do to most of us poor working slobs.

Steve Gilbert, the chickenhawk and blogger-without-a-Wikipedia-entry who posts at Sweetness & Light who gleefully believes that the Obama-Uncle-Auschwitz misstatement is an important story, emailed Raymond and Mark Kitchell who are the proprietors of the War World II 89th Infantry Division’s official website:

Subject: Any Record Of Charles W Payne?

Mr. Kitchell,

As you may have heard by now, Barack Obama has claimed that his great uncle Charlie Payne was a member of the 89th Div that liberated Buchenwald.

According to records his full name is either Charles W Payne or Charles T Payne (most likely the former), and he was born in 1924 - and he is still alive today.

He most likely was from Kansas at the time of enlistment.

Do you have any record of this gentleman?

Thank you,

Steve Gilbert

PS - If you go to my website, you will see that I was probably the first to note the error in Mr. Obama’s first claims about his “uncle.”

Raymond’s response? Straight to the point:

Please crawl back under the rock you came out from.

Good day

Raymond Kitchell, veteran 89th Inf Div

Lanny Davis, Bullary Clinton shill, writes in his HuffPo diary:

The follow are four things that the Obama campaign couldn’t resist doing to anger Clinton supporters, supporters that Sen. Obama needs in the general election if — if — he is the nominee.

1. Couldn’t resist waiting one day after Sen. Clinton won West Virginia by 41 points to announce John Edwards endorsement.

2. Couldn’t resist waiting to win majority of ALL delegates (not just pledged delegates) to do victory lap speech in Iowa the night Hillary won Kentucky by 36 points.

3. Couldn’t resist waiting to win majority of all delegates to announce Jim Johnson as VP search committee head — the first candidate in my memory ever to do so while his chief opponent is still fighting for nomination — and winning in last primary in crucial border state by 36 points (Kentucky).

What’s the rush?

Obama wouldn’t confirm or deny the that Mr. Johnson has been appointed to head the VP search effort. That makes many Clinton supporters feel uneasy about Senator Obama.

4. Couldn’t resist listing Bill Richardson as under consideration for Veep - the one Red Flag name that infuriates even moderate Clinton supporters the most — not because he chose to endorse Sen. Obama, but the way he did it, i.e., his inability to avoid making negative comments about Sen. Clinton while doing so — another person who sometimes can’t resist the temptation of not being gracious when he should be, a great disappointment to many of his former close friends from the Clinton camp and which will not be forgotten.

In a perfect response, SusaninIN comments:

The things that Clinton couldn’t resist doing to anger Obama supporters.

  1. Hillary saying that Obama is not a muslim ‘as far as I know’.
  2. The campaign releasing a photo of Obama in mideastern garb.
  3. Hillary’s endorsement of McCain over Obama several times.
  4. Bill Clinton’s statement marginalizing Obama as the ‘black’ candidate.
  5. Hillary playing the sexism card over and over again. ie. The boys are ganging up on me.
  6. Hillary saying that FL and MI primaries don’t count until she needs the votes.
  7. Hillary making her primary wins somehow more important than the states that Obama won.
  8. Hillary trying to blame the failure of revotes in FL and MI on Obama.
  9. Hillary’s comment about hard working, WHITE americans.
  10. Hillary blaming the media for sexist bias after months of bad press for Obama.
  11. Hillary getting her digs in at the so-called Fox News debate.
  12. Hillary supporters saying that Obama supporters are kool-aid drinkers.
  13. Campaign saying that Obama supporters are latte drinking, pirius driving elites
  14. Hillary denying there has been racism in primary.
  15. Hillary bringing up assassination when some fear for Obama.
  16. Hillary’s campaign calling people ‘Judas”.

17. should be “Being such a goddamned whiny asshole that, for years from now, misogynistic pundits will gleefully ask minority candidates to forswear becoming a Hillary Clinton style sore loser.”
