I'm trying to turn Rosie O'Donnell into a Banshee.

Oh, hang on... someone beat me to it.

I shall have to concentrate my magical powers on turning Keith O'Lbermann into a green faced leprachaun instead.

The answer is socialism. But only if the question is:

"What's the fastest way to impoverish, enslave and destroy people?"

Working.  Right now, doing nothing but checking out NewsBusters.  Waiting for the parties to begin or bars to close so I can go out and deal with all the accidents.

Celebrating my big 40th bday today. But family who was supposed to be here had to cancel because of Friday's snow/sleet storm and because some got cold viruses this past week.

So other than shoveling my driveway, I plan to enjoy relaxing at home with things like NCAA basketball and Newsbusters!

where's me gold?

Okay NBuddies -- it's shameless plug time for my Rush inspired St.Paddy's Day tribute to John Edwards

Just let your fingers do the walking to my You Tube vid...

Did a useless search this AM, never found mention on FoxNews of Sean's interviewing those 3 folks who came to the defense of some Latins who were provoked on a sidewalk by a flag waving Minute Man (?) -- ? The video shot passed very briefly, apparently so as not to discredit the Minute Men. I think the bully has had charges pressed against him.

But I may need correction, who knows? I only caught a few seconds of the interview. Sean was, as usual confrontational and unwilling to listen. Who was this American patriot? Why would he deliberately do those things on a public sidewalk to people who haven't harmed him? Needless to say, they looked like ordinary Mexican-Americans. None of them was bothering the guy.

And, why hasn't the incident covered here in NB; as balanced reporting of media bias ? FOX has zilch online this morning, even though Hannity went directly to brow-beating those who were representing the hispanics who were provoked. One of whom was roughly bumped aside by the guy with a big American flag. I suppose I shouldn't even ask that here?

Am I the only one that's going to be watching The Boondock Saints? 

"Now you will receive us. We do not ask for your poor or your hungry. We do not want your tired and sick. It is your corrupt we claim. It is your evil that will be saught by us. With every breath we shall hunt them down. Each day we will spill their blood ‘til it rains down from the skies. Do not kill, do not rape, to not steal. These are principles, which every man of every faith can embrace. These are not polite suggestions, these are codes of behavior and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost. There are varying degrees of evil. We urge you lesser forms of filth not to push the bounds and cross over into true corruption, into our domain. But if you do you, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three, and on that day, you will reap it. And we will send you to whatever god you wish. And shepherds we shall be, for thee my Lord for thee, power hath descended forthfrom thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command. We shall flow a river forth to thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti."

Couldn't you have posted this open thread earlier? I didn't realize it was St. Patricks and now my arm hurts, its all your fault, I'm a victim of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, I demand reperation! I am entitled to it!
