That Which is Caesar’s
“When Rep. Frank Pallone (D-N.J.) read the part of Article II, Section 1 mandating that only a ‘natural-born citizen’ may be president, the woman, seated in the front row of the public gallery, screamed ‘Except Obama, except Obama. Help us Jesus.'” [Politico]
Admittedly I am not very familiar with the New Testament, but on my recent trip to the Holy Land I went to Bethlehem, which is most definitely not in the United States.
Opps sorry Nojo, we posted at about the same time. Anyway, the topics are closely enough related they can probably both stand together.
@Serolf Divad: No problem. I squeezed in two quickies, which counts as Bogarting the Blog.
SportJack: I’m suddenly getting autoresponder emails from the UO. Something about a football game next Monday, and everybody’s out of town.
@nojo: It’s Monday? That’s my 29th wedding anniversary. Well, I’ll get the recap here.
@Dodgerblue: Had to double-check myself. I vaguely thought it would be some Saturday.
@nojo: On the day of my wedding, there were a couple of NFL playoff games on TV. My Dad, my brother and I spent a fair amount of time in the hotel bar, watching them. And yet, I am still married — and yes, smartypantses, to the same person.
help us jesus indeed
@Dodgerblue: I’ll certainly never get married in March.
@mellbell: When March Madness sweeps the nation? Good call.

Nojo, I took one for the team and clicked on that horrible, flashing, fake-out cumshot ad so I could get the url. Please make it go away forever. Muchas gracias!
@flippin eck: It’s blocked, and I’m pissed I never got to see it.
@nojo: Another win for AdBlock. Sorry for the less clicky-income noj. Sanity is still a personal priority.
@IanJ: Clicky income only amounts to about $16/month. No loss.
@mellbell: @Dodgerblue: On the other hand. I can only remember my brother’s anniversary because he got married on OU/Texas weekend.
