It keeps getting uglier. The Columbus Dispatch is reporting tonight that an Ohio state employee is contradicting her superiors; the worker says she was ordered to rummage through Joe The Plumber’s records — and she stated the blindingly obvious truth that such searches had never been done before simply because a citizen had come to [...]

Boo-licious.

Former Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger dissed Sarah Palin on NPR yesterday: “I can’t say that she would be a genius in the job, but I think she would be enough to get us through a four-year — well, I hope not. … Get us through whatever period of time was necessary, and I devoutly [...]

Left-wing cartoonist and political prognosticator Gary Trudeau has already drawn his Obama victory strip and distributed it to hundreds of newspapers. A few editors are mulling over Trudeau’s premature celebration, but he’s not budging.
Make way for Trudeau on the plane!

Not again.
We’ve already had reports from south Georgia and California of disabled voters coached into casting their ballots for Obama.
There’s a new allegation from Iowa:
Reports that an 87-year-old Council Bluffs woman was allegedly pressured to vote absentee by a Democratic campaign volunteer raise suspicions that some people who have diminished mental capacity are being [...]

Tired of throwing all his nutball friends off the bus, Barack Obama has taken to throwing disfavored reporters off his plane. He needs to make room for bigwig media sycophants and documentarians.
If you don’t make me glow, you gotta go.
C-YA:
Journalists from three major newspapers that endorsed John McCain have been booted from Barack Obama’s campaign [...]

Trick or treat.

My syndicated column today spotlights the silence of the left-wing privacy champions who care more about protecting suspected terrorists than Barack Obama’s critics. Earlier this week, I contacted the national ACLU office in New York twice for comment about the raid of Joe The Plumber’s records. No reply. After my filing deadline passed, [...]

Fresh air.

You’ll love Bill Russell’s latest mailer, which nails John Murtha to the wall. A reader wonders why the heck Sarah Palin isn’t campaigning in John Murtha’s district with GOP true maverick Bill Russell. I already endorsed that idea — noting that a Palin/Gretchen Wilson performance of “Redneck Woman” would bring down the house.
It’s not too [...]

Bon voyage.

From a Hill source, here’s an e-mail from a Senate Democrat interior decorator who’s already measuring the drapes and gathering office design suggestions. Your tax dollars at work:
From: Rainey, Judy (Lautenberg)

All,
I am collecting ideas on different (and inexpensive) ways to accessorize your office with pictures, [...]

Brotherly love.
Your team wins. How do you show your pleasure?
Take to the streets, rampage, overturn cars, and rob banks.
Here’s a vid of a car torching after the Phillies’ win:

You’ll recall that a Philadelphia Daily News columnist threatened riots if Obama loses on Tuesday.
Who knows what they’ll do if he wins.

Walk our way.

Free the tape!

Raaaaaaaaaacist!

Effigies, voter fraud, and Ohio’s snoopers.

All hail the Lightworker.

“Mr. Chairman, I apologize for being tardy…”

Bow down.

All in the family.

“I’m coming, Weezie!”

Laughingstock.

Momentum.

Do as they say.

CNN has just e-mailed to let me know that Wolf Blitzer will have a sit-down interview with The One on Friday: “The interview will air throughout the three hours of The Situation Room later that day. Blitzer will travel for the face-to-face interview with Obama and plans to anchor The Situation Room from the road. [...]

“Margin of Error = Who the hell knows?”

Chilling effect.

“What kind of people would do this to somebody like that?”
