Despair Saturday?

"[T]he only way to balance the budget by 2020, while simultaneously (a) making the Bush tax cuts permanent and (b) protecting all the programs the Republicans say they won't cut, is to completely abolish the rest of the federal government". (Krugman)


"The rhetoric will fly. Childishness will mount. Public nausea will hit an all-time high." (Brooks)


Opposite sides of the ideological spectrum, obviously, but each of them has a point. And the first one just terrifies. Some Collins to cleanse the palate:

"I lived through what was perhaps the greatest social shift in the history of our culture. You all did, too, unless you’re young enough to have been born into a brand-new platform of gender equality that was created, really, just for you."

Thanks, Gail.

Not to fear, though, I still have your weekly dose of lesbian. Meet Kayla (pictures 1, 2, and 3). She always sounds like she's crying. Totally adorable.

P.S. I'm sorry I link so much. It's because I don't have original thoughts.
