Where to start?
Did I, or did I not, back in 2008, warn you this would get ugly?
(Sept 21, 2008: My cloudy crystal ball says:
The Republicans will stop trying to win soon. Much better to shove the Democrats into having to clean up their mess, so that they can point and sneer, "See? we told you THOSE PEOPLE were incapable." Obama will either have to be the next FDR, or democrats won't stand a chance for 50 years, and blacks will never be elected to major office again.)
Let's see. We have:
A crosshair map from Sarah Palin with the admonition "Don't retreat. Reload!" Stay classy, Sarah.
A vandal attack map. And no, I don't mean ancient barbarians.
A coffin left in Roy Carnahan's yard. I think nooses and flaming crosses are the next step.
Terroristic threatening
And a gas line cut at the home of a VA rep's brother. The brother has 4 kids under 8, and the person who mistakenly posted the brother's address just laughed it off with the words "Collateral damage."
~~~
Oklahoma tried to thwart federal hate crimes law so they didn't have to protect their GLBT people. Instead, they took away all protection for race and religion.

elisabeth has a bit of information for those who are crying "Socialism!" at a few regulations on insurance.

Your shiny of the day: Steampunk X-Men

Clip of the day. Not all language in this is work-safe! Because, you know, adults do use adult language.
