Republicans, Please Reassure Me

When you realized Palin didn’t know what the Bush doctrine was, you had a moment of panic, right?  I mean, even if you settled down after that, please tell me you had a moment where you were like “Oh, my god, she doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”

I Know You’re Dying for an Update and an Evil Plot

I went over to the house tonight to check out the Butcher’s work and to finish up a few things.  He asked me to finish painting my room and to check the kitchen to see if it needs another coat.
