I think a bit of focus here could be helpful. Unless you’re looking forward to the day when you can make your firstborn’s “black-lung” diagnosis official.

How about this? Does anyone have suggestions re who should get the tap to lead Mr. Ritcher’s legal team? At the rate evident in similar proceedings, I’d hope that he’d have ’til his second term (at least) before worrying about who to go with… But it never hurts to plan ahead.

The RNC video tribute to 9/11 was unbelievable. Glad to see at least one talking head — Keith Olbermann — comment on its inappropriate, over-the-top fearmongering last night.

Nope. Was responding before I’d even read your comment. Sorry for any confusion.

foresmac: A person using the same email address as the above commenter almost always says something racist every time I mention Barack Obama’s name and I have to remove their comment. So they have a history of using the n-word. But thanks for the concern about my ability to comprehend words.

Wow, c'mon. "Niggardly" isn't even remotely related to the racial epithet: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niggardly Amazing that the David Howard incident was almost a decade ago. Also hey Jake I bet you don't know this, but there's a really kick-ass (ie, not retarded-ass) heavy metal band from Georgia called Harvey Milk! Probably not your speed, but they're pretty good.

@jake: John Galt “racist tripe” also shows lack of ability to se a dictionary:

niggardly |ˈnigərdlē|
adjective
not generous; stingy : serving out the rations with a niggardly hand.
• meager; scanty : their share is a niggardly 2.7 percent.

This is Kentucky politics as usual. Denise Harper Angel is just another special interest servant , she could care less what the voting public wants, especially a choice. Her way of serving Louisville and the contributors to her campaign may publicly state they are not afraid of 3rd party hopefuls, but their actions always speak differenst.

So her ego is not at all involved?

Well, not that her constituency may seek irresponsibility and fiscal mismanagement, but rather that her law suit reflects those qualities …

Thanks. Really.
