Despite what <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2004/11/05/MNGOF9MKHV1.DTL&amp;type=printable">President Shrub has said in the past</>, -543,816 (yes that's right, remember he lost the Popular Vote in 2000) is not a "Mandate."  Nor is the 3,012,499 he beat Kerry by in 2004, especially when you factor in all the disenfranchisement and voter fraud the Republicans took part in.  8,336,437, now that's a freaking "Mandate," Mr. Bush.  But I know that you, <a href="http://cavett.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/11/14/the-wild-wordsmith-of-wasilla/">like Governor Palin</a>, have issues with complicated things like "words," "sentences," and "literacy," so let us demonstrate in pictures for you...<br/><br/>
Not a "Mandate"

This, Mr. Bush, is what those of us who live in "reality" call a "Mandate"

		<description>Fast Company's article "<a href="http://www.fastcompany.com/node/1042476/print">Seth MacFarlane’s $2 Billion Family Guy Empire</a>" highlights some interesting subtleties in the FCC rules for indecency:
<blockquote>
...Jesus is a recurring character, because FCC rules stipulate you cannot use "Jesus Christ" as an exclamation unless the deity himself is present...
</blockquote>
Aside from being out right funny, it explains a couple times where Peter has said things like "Jesus Christ" and then after a pause the camera angle has turned and Jesus has been in the scene.</description>

		<description><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDofbll86dY">Keating Economics: John McCain &amp; The Making of a Financial Crisis</a> discusses John McCain's "experience" with enabling big business to rip off the American people.  Personally that's not the kind of "experience" I'm looking for in the next President.  <a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/23316912/makebelieve_maverick/print">Make-Believe Maverick</a> is a Rolling Stone piece looking at the public history of McCain, which never seems to be brought up by the "liberal left wing" hate mongering media.  Maybe it keeps getting stuck in the "mainstream media filter" Palin always talks about.  I wonder if that filter has <a href="/tag/tedstevens">anything to do with the Tubes</a>?</description>

Glad they clarified it was about the sidewalks and not about the mugging or certain death.</description>
