True story.
She could shill for anything (except Wal-Mart) and I would still love her.

Thanks for reminding me of this guy.. Is he still in the shmata trade? A real artist, IMHO. I was so moved by one of his pieces back in 2000--an overcoat he crafted out of the cover of a mattress on which his friend/neighbor Quentin Crisp had ailed and died. A poetic gesture wrought in fabric--although I can see whyit might've sent consumers + critics screaming into the woods.

You and me both, buddy...though is he saying they're untalented? I don't think talent and non-bitchery are mutually exclusive. It's kind of a destructive mental construct to have.

This makes me happy. I am going to go on a mission to find these ads and make a scrapbook. And also do my best to not think of Anti Christ during said mission.

This research directly benefits the California olive industry, which employs thousands of people, as well as employing many scientists.
Getting this funding through a non-earmark process would have been difficult and would have taken so much time that the fruit fly would have spread throughout California.
Yay earmarks!

I dunno. I just can't get outraged over this. I find the potential expansion of the Bagram prison more worrying.

If a President has a legal reason for using a signing statement that is well founded, I don't see the problem. The one that they featured in the article concerned the deployment of US troops on UN peacekeeping missions. I can see how this would impinge upon the President's powers as commander-in-chief.
I would like it if the discussion on this issue was more about the arguments for and against the use of signing statements, rather that the "Bush did it! Bad! Bad!" that seems most prevalent.

no, but i do remember the fact that obama never campaigned on ending earmarks and signing statements. he did however campaign on reducing waste, so clearly it makes tons of sense that people would be outraged that he isn't fulfilling john mccain's campaign promise to wage a BS crusade against 2% of the federal budget. i also remember that obama campaigned on ending the abuse of signing statements that took place under bush, when he basically used them to negate parts of bills he didn't like, not parts of dubious constitutionality. he didn't campaign on putting an outright end to a practice that has served an important legal purpose for many decades, because that has been a stupid idea ever since we left the era of simple single issue bills. not to mention that the one he actually issued is based on a straightforward legal precedent that congress continually chooses to ignore despite the supreme court's decision on the issue; it's one that just about every president has had to issue since the ruling came down. clearly though, he should have vetoed a complicated bill to keep the government running, over a small bit of congressional wishful thinking regarding constitutionality; just so he could keep campaign promises that he didn't make. please go ahead, carry on with your nonsense conventional wisdom. it might be a good idea to try criticizing the guy for things that are actually true (there's plenty of stuff that falls into that category).
