The Boy: "...did Rahm Emanuel punch him in the face?"
You know, it occurs to me that there has been a disappointing lack of Rahm Emanuel face punching since all this started. I think Rahm should be giving republicans the pimp hand every day before breakfast.
I almost feel that Wilson's comment was so out of line that it hurts his side. I saw via Twitter that McCain called on him to apologize.
Eta: and yes, we need more Rahm Emmanuel.
U.S. Open:
Holy crap, Federer.
I want a Rahm Emmanuel action figure. Now with Kung-Fu grip!
Dana, I was half an hour behind, and I skipped right ahead because it looked like Soderling was going to break Federer's serve in the opening game. Boy, was I surprised!
Oh, hey, I wanted to ask someone this, but I am alone in my living room, so I ask you: I saw many Repubs waving white papers with apparent determination. What were those? I missed the first bit of the speech, maybe it was made clear then.
I asked that during the speech but have gotten no answers.
According to dailykos:
A spokesman for the Republican Study Committee sends over an explanation of the paper that some members were holding up in the air: They're pieces GOP-sponsored health care legislation, there to combat the claim that Republicans don't have a plan.
They include bills sponsored by Reps. Tom Price, Paul Ryan, and John Shadegg.
Shadegg
I could not have any respect for a man whose last name essentially describes what a chicken does.
U.S. Open:
Soderling is kind of getting his ass kicked.
