Language Liberalism Freethought Birds
Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.
Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time.
The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church.
If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.

I used to teach Russian and Ukrainian, and some basic English, to civil servants. Now I teach Russian at a local continued-learning institute. I dabble in Gaelic and Welsh. I'm am amateur photographer and I love birding (in a small way). I'm a Progressive, and a Freethinker, and I know Evolution is a fact - that's FCD, Friend of Charles Darwin (look down the sidebar). I read a lot, and follow women's college basketball. Also I love astronomy, though I'm a rank amateur at it. Most of all, I like living in the reality-based community...

<-- Older Post ^ Home Newer Post -->Do the 59 Dems in the Senate include Joe Lieberman (Whatever-CT)?
I think it did, but I'm not sure. The prevailing thought seems to be that Joe will scurry back to the Dems if Obama wins big.
If the Dems win big enough, they might decide they don't need Joe in their sandbox--um, er, I mean caucus. (Not that I have any hopes one way or another, given that I don't have opinions.)
You mean the guy who's been standing behind John McCain on stages for the last months? Glrf.
I wish it were different, and I wish we could all just tell him to take a flying floss[1] at a rolling doughnut. Alas, partisan politics means that if we need his diseased vote, we'll just have to hold our noses and take it.
