Even if you start a fight which you know is wrong you don't just throw down your arms and walk away.

My father served in the South Pacific during WWII, and the way I was raised, yes, you do.

"Obama's past associations with shady characters."

Interesting that you choose to use the plural "characters." Are their other mysterious, sundry figures in Obama's past that voters are indifferent to? Palin and the McCain campaign didn't seem to be too forthcoming about their use of the plural "terrorists." Please, Sarge, share.…

“People say that I speak too simply, or don’t have quite the..." (I believe the word she's struggling for here is 'vocabulary') "...I don’t have my Thesaurus in my back pocket all along through my speeches,” she told donors. “Well I don’t have time for that.”

People don't really care…

Hmm... I would think the JSA would be a lot more worried about the allegations of match-fixing. Interesting.

Reminds me of that nonsense a couple of years ago with Mino Monta pushing natto on his program "Aru Aru Daijiten," with claims of fantastical health properties to be found in everyone's favorite rotten soy beans. People bought the natto up like there was no tomorrow, causing shortages nationwide and…

It's crazy. Can't get a single damned banana after 12 noon in my town. They're all being snapped up by customers who've bought into this banana diet nonsense that's gripped the hearts and minds of people looking for an alternative to a balanced diet and, well, exercise.

Thanks to some…

In the meantime, "perfect" Team McCain/Palin was given a much-needed boost by this:

"Kathleen Parker [conservative columnist], writing in the National Review Online, says her "cringe reflex is exhausted" after watching the Alaska governor stumble through TV interviews and it's become clear to her that Palin is out of her…

Mr. McCain made a decision to go back to Washington D.C, to do the job that Arizona voters expect him to do.

Right, and all senators that've ever run for president have been expected to stop making themselves known to the voting public, and simply stay in the Capital. For…

TheBlueTeam:

"Palin is also busy with sorting out the current economic crisis."

Palin has absolutely NOTHING to do with sorting out the current national crisis. She's a state governor, for Pete's sake.

TheNewFed:

"It is only a debate delay not cancellation . . . more important issues are at hand."…

If it's the mother's parent's hospital, I don't think it's going to cause much friction. In fact, this kind of arrangement is closer to traditional Japanese families that own a business of some sort. Having the children and grandchildren around isn't all that unusual.
