Matt, that's the funniest thing I've seen in weeks.

It's funny, but what's it have to do with BOR, I'm not seeing a political angle here matt..

Notice under the title it says "News, Politics AND FUN..." This ist he "AND FUN." Also, Dieter is considering following GM's lead in getting Union concessions:

This could be a big political issue in Michigan districts.

check out the picture of Saddam Hussein on the NYT home page right now ... http://www.nytimes.com/ ... and tell me that doesn't look like Walter Matthau (circa 1993, Grumpy Old Men).

Max Goldman: Hey, watch your mouth you dumb friggin' Swede.

That's great.

Yes, fun, but this isn't livejournal. I'd make the political connection next time, otherwise it doesn't really belong on the front page.

You know what? After BOR being the Chris Bell-using-us-as-a-tool-Blog then switching to the million-some odd posts on Prop 2, I kinda welcome a change of pace. I thought this was hilarious, and I think it's wrong to diss your own writer on the comments section of his post. Go ahead and resume your duties as the Chris Bell spinner and the editorial re-poster, but let people have fun. Finally, Go Stros.

Seriously. How are you going to call someone out the same day you post an extremely lame defense of the smoking ban and a job posting. At least this post was interesting...
