Christine Quinn's coming out party: "With her newfound notoriety, it would seem, the stars are aligning for Ms. Quinn to follow Mr. Bloomberg’s footsteps as the most prominent mayor in the country. However, she will first have to cut her path to City Hall through a crowded field of opponents and a Council that may include members eager to exact revenge on the outgoing speaker, while also battling the persistent impression she is a political stand-in, a Medvedev to Mr. Bloomberg’s Putin."

"The Pocatello city council voted unanimously to move ahead with an
anti-discrimination ordinance like one passed in Sandpoint, Idaho, last

conservative and heavily Mormon. But little opposition to the ordinance
has emerged."
AP picks up story of North Dakota football player Chris Kuntz: "'I'm struggling with it,' said Rita Kuntz, choking back tears.

Gary Johnson, the candidate who didn't need to evolve on marriage equality. The candidate who isn't just expressing his personal belief but thinks marriage equality should be law. I don't agree with his education plans but WTF do I know, gov't planning for education hasn't worked for 60 years. This is the the candidate that proves that Frank was right about the Uncle Toms.

I thought you could get chemotherapy for Bachoma. That is one massive canker.

To be clear, the reason why Council Members will be looking to "exact revenge" on Christine Quinn is because she used the hundreds of millions of dollars in discretionary that she dispenses to control the way Council Members vote, thereby stripping the City Council of so much as a hint of democracy. The abuse of slush funds, coupled with her decision to abandon the City's system of checks and balances by serving as Bloomberg's Deputy Mayor, has converted NYC government into a two-person tyranny.

That dog's weight is no joke. Who on earth would be lucky enough to have a lovely pup like that and over-feed him?
I miss my dog Truman every day, and I can't imagine anyone abusing a beautiful dog like that.

@Little Kiwi: I love those who are calling to see Bachmann's HIGH SCHOOL diploma.
She's also incredibly desperate about funds. She has a video which contains numerous lies wherein she pleads for money. If you want to waste 4:11, you can see it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl6t3OCjJI4
