- “Managed withdrawal“–not to be confused with “cut and run.”
- Rep. Curt Weldon (R-PA) provides another example of what GOP personal responsibility is all about.
- Some religious rightists are distressed about the “deferential treatment” a homosexual appointee and his partner received at the State Department swearing in ceremony. I guess they wanted him to be publicly flogged, or something.

- As if the Saturday night’s footbrawl between Miami and Florida International wasn’t bad enough, here’s what the CSS color analyst said during the broadcast:
“Now, that’s what I’m talking about,” [Lamar] Thomas said as the brawl raged out of control. “You come into our house, you should get your behind kicked. You don’t come into the OB playing that stuff. You’re across the ocean over there. You’re across the city. You can’t come over to our place talking noise like that. You’ll get your butt beat. I was about to go down the elevator to get in that thing.”

“I say, why don’t they just meet outside in the tunnel after the ball game and get it on some more? You don’t come into the OB, baby,” Thomas said. “We’ve had a down couple years but you don’t come in here talking smack. Not in our house.”Mr. Thomas has since been fired.
