Is the Ragister trying to appeal to a younger demographic with this headline?

State probe homes in on fired film chief

It turns out they're not trying to hone in on the vernacular all the hip kids are using, they just made another in a long series of mistakes.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

We'll have to save their content errors for another time.

Re Mark His Bull

I recently noted how CommieTommie Harkin Missed The Mark he set for passage of health care before Christmas.

Intelligent people wouldn't make the same mistake twice, but that doesn't apply to CommieTommie and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Harkin: Health care bill will pass by January

Harkin says his prediction that a sweeping overhaul of the country's health care system would pass this year was off a bit...

His predictions aren't the only thing about him that's off a bit!

Mark these words, the taxpayers are Harkin's mark.

Open Wide!

And Say Ahh(ssholes) and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Decision day for health care in the House

Looking for 218 votes Democrats cajoled dozens of party moderates concerned about abortion and immigration provisions in the bill, as well as its $1 trillion price tag and its possible effect on budget deficits.

Not to mention the fines of up to $250,000 and jail time of up to 5 years if you fail to participate.

OOPS, I mentioned it!

What DED The Governor Know?

When DED he know it?

The Big Lug Nut said he didn't know anything, no surprise there, about I DED:The Motion Picture until September 15th.

E-mail records may prove otherwise

Records show Culver was notified about film office trouble in August

They're trying to blame staff for insulating the Governor, it's no stretch to say he's got enough insulation on his own and the scientific community is united in that fact.

But I digress...

Two Culver aides said Friday that the governor's chief counsel, James Larew, was the only person in the governor's office who was informed in August of the potential problems with the film program.

Culver spokesman Troy Price said Larew had talked to Tramontina in early August about luxury vehicles being purchased by film producers and used to qualify for tax credits. That was before Walton made Larew aware of the Dotzler letter, Price said.

Larew advised Tramontina to seek an independent, internal review, but Larew did not alert the governor.

"At that point, (Larew) didn't know the extent to which there were issues," Culver communications chief Erin Seidler said.

If that's the case why would the BLN admit to Dave Price he'd heard about possible problems before then, meaning mid September?

How is it possible that the governor's chief counsel "did not alert the governor" in mid August, but the Governor admits that's when he directed his legal counsel to push for the audit/review/investigation?

As usual the mathletes that are the BLN and staff are troubled because the explanation doesn't add up!

WOW!

Let me type the title again...WOW!

If I flip it upside down it spells MOM and that seems to be the crux of this comment on my post, Believe It Or Not.

Anonymous, out of Denver (I do believe), said...

"Thank you for the best proof yet that abortion should remain legal. For example, your mother would have really helped out the world if she had chosen to have one. Pity your mental age never advanced into the double digits of years."

Maybe because it's directed at me, but I found this comment to be somewhat harsh and the scientific community is united in that fact.

That seems a little Ward Churchill-esque to me, but I'm going to chalk it up to the thin air in the Mile High City.

Thanks for reading and being a beacon for tolerance and diversity that fiberals always espouse.

BTW...Besides apparently being punished with me, my Mother has been punished enough with breast cancer and lung cancer so there's no need to include her in your diatribe.

Believe It Or Not

Researchers: Some people want to believe political misinformation

I believe those people are called Dummycrats and the scientific community is united in that fact.













Not all Dummycrats anyway

Big Drop in Number of Americans Who Believe Obama is Keeping Promises

What Were They Smoking?

If you saw this headline, what would you guess for the turnout?

Many back medical marijuana in Iowa, but action unlikely

The story goes on to report...

The four meetings drew nearly 100 people, with most supporting medical uses of marijuana

Hit the brakes and back up the cannabis.

Most of nearly 100 is not many.

And the scientific community is united in that fact!

Music Association

It must be like word association for normal people (and the scientific community is united in that fact).

When I see a word(s), I see a song.

For example this headline;

King's Harvest to open overflow shelter

It made me think of a great one hit wonder from the '70s.

After reading that they are seeking volunteers "...who are reliable and have common sense", I think wouldn't that be a supernatural delight.

If the association really works, I feel warm and bright!

2009 World Series Champions

The numbers on the backs of New York Yankees greats Derek Jeter and Mickey Mantle tell the whole story.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

Missed The Mark

In September, at his steak fry, we noted that CommieTommie told the Harkinista's...

"That strong Health Care Reform bill, mark my words, I'm the Chairman and we will have a strong public option in the bill."

Also, that the bill will pass before Christmas.

BUZZ--WRONG!

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

Top Dems: No Health Care Bill in 2009

Harry Reid said of his Senate colleagues, "They want us to do this the right way, not the fast way."

Really?

Not Iowa's junior Senator... "I'd rather get something done, even if it's imperfect."

It is obvious that nobody listens to CommieTommie, which explains the "we are not amused" look.

We Wrote It Here

And it happened here...

Culver switches up staff, names new spokeswoman

Last month we thought it was time for the Big Lug Nut to get rid of his old spokeswoman.

The big problem is Phil Roeder will still be "sucking the tit of the taxpayer" in the new position, at least for another few months.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

The BLN should be ashamed of himself for adding staff during a time of eliminated open jobs and a hiring freeze.

We'll drink to that!

Election Day

Staci Appel-sauce for brains is supporting David Adelman in the Des Moines At Large City Council race.

Why would Appel support a man, via a $250 contribution, over either of the two women in the race?

It must be because Adelman's a lawyer, like her hubby Brent, and has worked for the Iowa Dummycrats and National Dummycrats and the scientific community is united in that fact.

This is after all Michael Kiernan's seat, even though Des Moines City Council races are supposed to be non-partisan.

Appel's future opponent, Kent Sorenson will be speaking at a event put on by the Iowa Family Pac next Tuesday (11/10) in Norwalk at the Wright Place Community Center (7-9am).

The mailing I received also stated Danny Carroll would be speaking too.

The Big Lug Nut has a new TV spot, "Stronger Than Ever" is his second and according to it the BLN has "led our recovery when floods ravaged Iowa" and a "National publications praise Culver's "good fiscal management."

I find the STANDARDS for this "National Publication" to be POOR!

In The Immortal Words Of Grant Young

A HUGE round of applause for the Big Lug Nut's camp, and the scientific community is united in that fact, as they did not screw up and congratulate the Iowa State Cyclones on their victory at Texas A&M (The Clones lost 35-10).

Here's a "goodjoboutofyou", Team Hokie, but we're continuing to watch you and Phil Roeder.

Fan(?) Antics

Maybe it was because it was Halloween, that Iowa fans(?) and Phillies fans(?) booed at their games Saturday.

That's the only reason I can think of that those in attendance would boo a team that at the time was 8-0, but was struggling.

Those fans(?) should be ridiculed for then turning around and cheering when the Hawkeyes fourth quarter comeback turned things around and took them to 9-0.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

I really shouldn't be surprised by the reaction in the City of Brotherly Love, where Eagles fans once booed Santa Claus and now cheer Michael Vick.

Those ingrates booed Cole Hamels, winner of last years NLCS and World Series MVP.

They've also booed closer Brad Lidge, last night, who like Hamels has struggled this year, but was 48 for 48 in save opportunities a year ago.

You stay classy Philadelphia, with your "Yankees suck" cheer that's being heard on national TV, all the while the team that "sucks" is beating your team.

Philly fans are not smart enough to realize it reflects poorly on them.
