This 50 Most Beautiful People on the Hill feature is grossing me out. I hate all the shiny Republican women in pink shirts and pearls. And the writing sucks.
The glow you see in Rep. Cathy McMorris's face is that of a bride-to-be who will marry a former Navy pilot Aug. 5 in San Diego.
Barf. In fact, the entirety of the blurb about McMorris is about her impending marriage. Not like she's like, a fucking congresswoman or anything, baby's getting married!
dude, clownae, I totally don't even know what blog you mean. oh, wait, no. I responded. bostoniangirl, if you read this some time, I owe you an email...
Hey, thanks, alameida! I thought this comment was pretty sweet too, in a horribly cynical sort of way: They're probably looking for someone who will testify to Congress about babies being pulled from incubators..
Would you guys believe me if I swore up and down that the Iranian guy I'm dating neither shops at International Male, nor drives a black beemer, nor horndogs?
There can't be two Iranian males like that in the continental U.S., so I deduce that either the Iranian guy you're dating is Ogged or one of them is lying about not having any of those three characteristics.
I onced worried that I actually was dating ogged, unbeknowst to the both of us. It all got cleared up in the "Innocence" thread, so I won't link to it.
In LA, we once pulled up at a light next to three Iranian guys in a black beemer, with a license plate that read HARDROK. We were just trying to be helpful, but they peeled out all mad when we told them they spelled DORK wrong.
Maybe these are non-Iranian guys who've been driven mad by hott Persian porn. "Sheherazade and the Dance of the Seven Veils" was really good.
Didn't Khomeini say that the Persian stuff was the best in the world? Or was that Khamenei? Or maybe Ogged's mom?

What's wrong with cheesy horndogging?

2: The glow you see on her face is because the guy she's marrying is no longer in the Navy.

The cheesiness. Classy horndogging can be admired by all.

Hey Alameida, check your e-mail, the one that is listed on you and Husband X's blog.

Classy horndogging
Can you describe what such behavior would look like?

This blog's gone political again.
(I am deliberately posting this comment outside of the active political threads.)

Wonder if this would work for a non-Iranian? "There's this passage in Thackston I just don't understand..."

And yet not a single person commented on this.
Everyone hates me. Hates me.

Believe it or not, Gary, I was just about to make that joke.

No worries, o rosy-toed one.

Also, I want to let any lurkers who might have job suggestions know taht it is not at all creepy of you to e-mail me.

"Believe it or not, Gary, I was just about to make that joke."
I blame anti-Semitism.

Didn't we agree that you were going to sell yourself into white slavery to the weird guy in finance or hi-tech?

10 is not a criticism of this post, by the way.

No problem, JM, Flannery O'Connor's characters say the word that way too.

Hey John, how do you know that? Did you finally get around to reading the book I gave you?

5: But I thought we all had a finely developed appreciation for cheese.
