‘trust or bust’ … good grief, how fucking cute. such wit and insight in less than 20 characters.. and you can bet he’ll use it on morning joe in the morning.

can someone break his thumbs…

Halperin, being an asshole, is still holding that the GOP hostage-taking itself was just fine.

The Brooks scene is a classic. Obama has much more leverage than Brooks’ character, but he still negotiates roughly the same way…

Halperin is a dick. And I see he is back on Morning Joe already.

If Halperin told me the Astros – roughly 97 games out of first – had no chance to make the playoffs this year, I would empty out my 401K, fly to Vegas, and bet it all Houston to win the World Series.

From Teh Google — Comity: “Courtesy and considerate behavior toward others”. The clowns in DC have plenty of that to go around among themselves — they’re fawning over each other constantly, swapping cocktail wieners and insider trading tips and jokes about that time they dropped a baby on the campaign trail. It’s the rest of us — the dirty unwashed masses, the fucking hippies and average American tax payers — we’re the ones that get no courtesy and no consideration. Be it Sir Change-a-Lot or the orange Oompa Loompa and his other gambling buddies across the isle: none of them could give a shit about you, or me or the 99.9% of people who aren’t them. Carlin was right: it’s a big club, and you’re not in it. Alas, Halperin is just enough of a narcissistic clown to think he’s one of them if he fellates those bozos in public time and again and then hangs around the servant’s entrance waiting for a little pet on the head.

we need a new path to comity.

But we DO. We also need a new path to a decent bagel in L.A., cold fusion, the end of the DH, the availability of menthol shave cream, supermarket Roma tomatoes that actually taste like something, and the impeachment of Clarence Thomas. Get on it, Mark.

Western Bagel isn’t bad. (I liked Union Bagel, but they’re gone. Their ‘Silver Line lox’ was worth the price.)
