Clinton's vast foreign policy experience: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chi-exp...7,0,51719.story

I got accepted to law school.

Oregon votes in May, too? I think I may have voted for Kucinich back in '04, I can't even remember...it really didn't matter at that point, obviously. I may have voted for Dean. I remember that my buddy wanted to be the only guy in his very rural Frankfort, KY precinct to vote for Al Sharpton in '04. Unfortunately, if the election is still contested by the time it gets to the Bluegrass, I'm pretty sure Clinton will beat Obama here.

Jerk back in '06: Standin' by this Jerk?

Survey USA did 50 state polling. I know, I know, it's early and all, but these things are fun to look at. Clinton vs. McCain Obama vs. McCain State by State Difference in Performance in Notable States (Obama vs. Obama) Arkansas: Clinton +11, Obama -20 Colorado: C -6, O +9 Florida: C +9, O -2 Hawaii: C +4, O +30 Idaho: C -36, O -13 Iowa: C -5, O +9 Michigan: C even, O +1 Minnesota: C +4, O +7 Missouri: C -4, O -6 Montana: C -20, O -8 Nebraska: C -27, O -3 (and splitting the EVs of the state) Nevada: C -8, O +5 New Hampshire: C -8, O +2 New Jersey: C +5, O even New Mexico: C even, O +7 North Carolina: C -8, O -2 North Dakota: C -19, O +4 Ohio: C +10, O +10 Oklahoma: C -8, O -23 Oregon: C -5, O +8 Pennsylvania: C +1, O -5 South Carolina: C -6, O -3 South Dakota: C -12, O -4 Tennessee: C even, O -16 Texas: C -7, O -1 Utah: C -38, O -11 Virginia: C -10, O even Washington" C -2, O +14 West Virginia: C +5, O -18 Wisconsin: C +4, O +11 Wyoming: C -33, O -19

I'll admit I cried.

I didn't say that they were the same thing. I said that coal to liquid fuel is very bad for the environment. With any kind of coal gasification or liquification, the carbon in the coal isn't going to suddenly disappear. It will have to be either released into the atmosphere or sequestered: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/23/opinion/...and&emc=rss

Hows about neither? Why does everyone want to completely abandon our #1 natural resource? Coal is cheap and plentiful in America and can be turned into clean burning natural gas.

I come from a coal producing state and recognize its important to the economy here, but the shit is fucking poison. Mountaintop removal is destroying the environment in Eastern Kentucky. You can take a "virtual flyover" of a MTR site here. http://www.vimeo.com/610726/

Those are Mary Janes, you tools. Already mentioned them above.

Yes, I think McCain has a pretty good shot at winning the general.

Someone I know made this Cops spoof. Thought it was pretty funny.

This doesn't really belong here, but I thought this was amazing. Also: http://www.themonkeycage.org/2008/03/post_63.html

He does that. It's part of his charm.

Agreed on the Cadbury Eggs. Favorite Easter candy. Moms still gets them for me. I like the new ones with caramel and the ones with chocolate creme in them too. Also, the second picture on my post above (below the circus peanuts) was those "Mary Jane" peanut butter candies in the black and orange wrappers.
