Boom Goes the Dynamite!

The Intel shell finally got all blowed-ed up this morning:

Caption Me!

Obama in Austin.

And it’s worth noting that he made a bit of news during his visit, lobbing some much-deserved rhetorical grenades toward the VP:
AUSTIN, Texas — Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama ridiculed Vice President Dick Cheney on Friday for saying Britain’s decision to pull troops from Iraq is a good sign that fits with the [...]

If only…

Conan O’Brien is rarely funny to me, but this “Meet the Press for Idiots” made me laugh.

Obama-Rama

Our advice is to avoid the Town Lake area of Austin this afternoon. Traffic will surely be snarled if 16,000 people show up to hear a speech by Senator Obama. We’ll catch the live stream…oh wait, we probably won’t catch it live. You know, because we have a job. We’ll catch it on YouTube [...]

Welcome to Two Years Ago, New York

If there’s one thing I’d say about Texas, it’s that we’re ahead of the curve.

Where’s PinkDome?

We’ve received a few emails over the past couple of days asking where your beloved PinkDome is. Obviously, I’m not at liberty to give away too much information, but let’s just say that PD will be taking a bit time of off to grow some hair back.

Once he’s sporting a decent five o’clock shadow, he’ll [...]

What are the odds?

There’s the teeniest infinitesimal chance that Sen. Lieberman would switch parties if the Dems vote to get out of the war. A Jewish Republican in the Senate? Now that’s something you don’t see every day, Chauncey.

Thursday News Roundup

- All I heard about on CNN this morning was Hillary v. Obama (well, that and Anna Nicole). David Geffen threw Obama a party after all those Clinton-supporting years, Hillary’s campaign got angry after Geffen made some not-so-nice comments about her, blah blah blah. We’re still at war, and this is a top [...]
