Eugene Robinson Reads My Blog!


Kitties, I watch Eugene Robinson on Keith O's show every night and love to hear him blah blah about the political craziness of the day. Well, apparently he is watching me, too!

In today's Washington Post column he used two of my words from my first New Words on Wednesday post! And he used them really close to each other in his column. He did an excellent job:

As the kerfuffle of the past week indicates, it's apparently even problematic for Obama to attempt to describe the Republican Party's obvious game plan of defining him as different, exotic and risky.

(deleted paragraph here.)

The second of the bombshell words that Obama didn't say -- but that Graham would like you to think that he said -- is an even bigger canard. He called me a racist has become a popular and convenient refuge of scoundrels.

I'm sort of surprised that he did not use feckless as there are many places I think it would have fit.

I'm going to invite him to be my guest blogger when I go on vacation.

  1. wow! you are famous! i'm sorry he didn't talk about your blog more, but you sure helped his arguments sound smarter. great job!

    i remember how skinny minny you were. no more right! you've always been so fun to read.

    thanks for the many purrs while i've been sicky. it is my FIV that keeps me an only cat. my beans considered getting me an FIV+ sibling like Bear, Twizzler and Meep, but my personality isn't suited to having another cat around. probably cause of my feral days.

  5. Annie, I agree, I think you should ask Mr. Robinson to blog for you when you take vacations. He looks like he might have some interesting takes on kitty affairs!

  10. Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!

  11. good day dudes. I'm actually into shoes and I was looking for that meticulous brand. The prices for the shoes are about 350 pounds on every site. But completely I base this location selling them for the benefit of half price. I really love those [url=http://www.shoesempire.com]gucci sneakers[/url]. I will absolutely purchase them. what can you say about it?
