• On Like Donkey Kong

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  In what is probably the most improbable political duel in years, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Washington Post columnist David Broder have gotten into a public slap-like-a-girl fight . These are probably the two most middling, lukewarm, bland, bloodless, colorless, soft-focus Milquetoasts in Washington. If ...

• Deep Stupid

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  It’s shooting fish in a barrel — actually, it’s more like shooting a pumpkin in a barrel — but today’s winner is Sarah Palin . The Israeli government is again expanding Jewish settlements in territory that belongs to the Palestinians.  Basically, they’re making any kind of peace treaty with the ...

• Great Moments in Homophones

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  Listening to this week’s NFL preview from the other room, I heard a commercial for something called “Ass Effects.”  I wasn’t paying much attention, but they just kept repeating it: Ass Effects, Ass Effects, Ass Effects. Then they said, “Ask your doctor if Ass Effects is right for you.”  Huh? So I ...

• The Fungibility of Fungibility

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  So the health care bill the House passed picked up a last-minute amendment.  Known as the Stupak Amendment , after Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI), who wrote and offered it, it says no federal health dollars can go to fund abortions. There’s nothing new about that.  It’s been the law since 1976, when the Hyde ...

• Reaping the Whirlwind

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  Apropos of our discussion of my last Deep Stupid post, I’ve been hearing quite a lot lately about various segments of movement conservatism starting to turn on each other. This isn’t the ultra-conservative vs. conservative stuff, like NY-23.  This is ultra-conservative vs. ultra-conservative.  Various tea party ...

• Presentations: What To Wear

  
  Professionally Speaking... — Authority: 394
  "I base most of my fashion sense on what doesnt itch" ~~ Gilda Radner If asked, most of us would say we want to look our best when we are at the front of a room, presenting to a group of people. However, in the flurry of pulling content together, finishing slides and producing handouts, we dont always give enough ...

  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  David Frum : Over time, the public option will grow, setting private insurance on the road to extinction – or at best to a tightly regulated new role as the health equivalent of public utilities . Conservatives, are you sure you wanna go there?  Really? Last I checked, electricity in this country was ...

• Adventures in Ethics

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  It’s nearly always entertaining to watch members of the D.C. cocktail circuit try to talk about — try to pretend to suggest that they practice — ethics.   The current saga has to do with the lobbying firm Bonner & Associates, and a political ethicist at American University. See, Bonner & Associates ...

• Deep Stupid

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  Hey, 2 in one week! Today’s winner is Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC). As you probably heard, the GOP had a bit of a problem in this week’s special election for the congressional seat from New York’s 23rd District.  The local GOP chose Dena Scozzofava as their candidate.  Meanwhile, a member of the Conservative ...

• TMI Time

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  I don’t know why I’m posting this, but for some reason I feel a need to do so. Almost exactly 10 years ago, I was diagnosed with clinical depression.  It didn’t start 10 years ago; it just wasn’t diagnosed until 10 years ago, when my brain decided it had had enough and started shutting down my body.  The ...

  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  Haven’t done one of these in a while, but tonight’s winner is celebrity Dem pol Lawrence O’Donnell. O’Donnell just corrected Rachel Maddow’s pronunciation of “Scozzofava,” the last name of a congressional candidate in NY. What makes this stupid is that O’Donnell is an almost-nightly guest and ...

• Bracing, or Shocking?

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  In retort to Laura Ingraham’s odd claim that conservatism has been the most influential political philosophy of the past 100 years, Andrew Sullivan says : The past 100 years? I don’t know any Hooverites who think the last century was a triumph for small government and individual liberty. Look at the size of ...

  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  In the hearings Al posted about yesterday, Rep. Steve King (R-IA) apparently asked NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to apologize to Rush Limbaugh for saying Rush’s comments about Donovan McNabb were racist: King said he’d “scoured” Rush Limbaugh’s infamous comment that the media was giving Philadelphia ...

• Lieberman to Reid: You My B*tch

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  Remember a while back, when Joe Lieberman actively criticized and campaigned against the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate?  Called him unfit to be commander-in-chief? I said at the time that if Harry Reid didn’t punish Lieberman in some way, he would make it very difficult to maintain discipline in ...

• The Semi-Public Option

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  The big news today is that Harry Reid decided to include a public option in the version of the health care reform bill that will come up for vote in the senate.  A big win.  Plus, the version he included is the “opt-out” public option — the one that starts as a national program, but individual states can opt ...

• What It Is, Is Football

  
  Hungry Hungry Hippos — Authority: 116
  I don’t post about sports much, even though I follow 3 teams pretty closely.  Here, I go all Lou Holtz and remind the Miami Dolphins and Arkansas Razorback football teams of a few things.  (Imagine I’m spraying all my “s”’s.) Some football definitions: Quarterback: an offensive back who throws the ...
