What's With This?



Updatiness:

This is the sort of thing I was thinking... Why, um, blow these folks off so brusquely?

Also:
The organizers were rating the march a success, saying that at least 150,000 people had attended, though the authorities gave no official estimate of the crowd size.
Heh heh.

The latest episode in our continuing series "Barney Frank says things you're not supposed to say out loud".

It's all fun and games til he starts talking about his farts...

Barney knows how Wash. works. Palms must be greased.

Let 'em march, I say. No reason you can't cause a ruckus and also practice the gentlemanly arts of bribery.

Fortunately Mr McGravitas runs a decent, high-moral-tone family blog (not like some blogs) where you can say things like that without triggering a veritable deluge of malicious misinterpretations and accusations of "veiled masturbation reference".

I'm glad I didn't say "jobs must be blown" because that would have lowered the tone, a thing up with which our proprietor would not have put.
