WHAT, HES GOT SOME KIND OF HAIR WARDROBE NOW? Ann Althouse: And whats the first thing you not

Hair Today
Everything is staged with Obama Ann Althouse: “And what’s the first thing you notice — the difference between today and the Speech he gave at the memorial? Right. Different color hair. Gray for the memorial, signifying the wise elder, the father figure. Back to dark hair to signify the vigorous young man, ready to forge ahead, solving problems, and restoring his party’s electoral fortunes.”ht. larwyn ...

"Before We are Democrats or Republicans, We are Americans," said Obama in his weekly address this morning.
And what's the first thing you notice — the difference between today and the Speech he gave at the memorial? Right. Different color hair. Gray for the memorial, signifying the wise elder, the father figure. Back to dark hair to signify the vigorous young man, ready to forge ahead, solving problems, and restoring his party's electoral fortunes. Restoring his party's electoral fortunes?!! Are you aghast that I would say such a thing when the literal message is "Before We are Democrats or R...

Is Obamas Hair Color Just Part Of The Script To?
President Obama is a master of political stagecraft, but does that craftiness even extend to modifying his hair color dependent on the situation? Ann Althouse notice’s that the President’s hair color changed from his Speech at the Tucson memorial to his weekly address yesterday. Of course, we’ve all witnessed as Presidents have “gone gray” during their tenures in office. I’ve always just assumed it was simple aging combined with the rigors of the job. Maybe Ob...

"... as also of course happens when she 'thinks things' and then 'writes them down' and 'alerts the public as to her thoughts.'" Heh. I got FireDogLake writing in the anti-Althousiana genre. ADDED: I guess Firedoglake is flouting the "civility" bullshit that's been bandied about lately. ...

Neighbors recall slain Lansdowne man
As police in Delaware County continued their investigation into the beating death of a 70-year-old Lansdowne man whose body was found on Wednesday, neighbors recalled him as a friendly soul who liked to eat out, watch movies, and bowl. Police said earlier that Murray Seidman, of the first block of South Lansdowne Avenue, suffered multiple blunt-force injuries and may have been dead for at least five days before a friend found his body in his apartment. Neighbors say Seidman was found by a man th...

Late Night: Obamas DIE JOB!
Jim Hoft, The Gateway Gobshite, The Dollar Store version of Michelle Malkin, is very possibly the dumbest Wingnut on this or any other Internet. To be sure, he has his competition (SASQUATCH Israel!). But he is rather special! However, idiotically mistaking closed captioning for STALINIST MARCHING ORDERS was, like, so this afternoon. The latest outrage is that the President of the United States may be dyeing his hair, which is wicked and conniving and wicked, for obvious reasons, these reasons...

Bill Haslam's advisers are largely 'outsiders' to state government
Hundreds of supporters line up to congratulate Tennessee Governor Elect Bill Haslam on Thursday, January 13, 2011 at the Foundry. Tennessee opens a new chapter today as Republican Bill Haslam takes office with a team of advisers drawn largely from outside State Government and a chance to radically redirect its course. Haslam will be sworn in as Tennessee's 49th Governor shortly after 11 a.m., bringing with him a fresh slate of commissioners taken from the ranks of the state's mayors, business ex...

Usma: The Tajik woman's secret for that sexy unibrow look
Tajik men melt at the come hither look from a raven haired babe with dark piercing eyes framed by one long single eyebrow.  When they described their ideal of a sizzling hot chick, they start with an eyebrow that traverse the bridge of the nose, then tell you about her eyes and dark hair, and several minutes later they may get to some of the other feminine attributes that capitivate the attention of the Western man's mind. Tajik women have a beauty secret to their sexy unibrow look.  U...

Should we Change Involuntary Treatment Laws?
Sally Satel writes: I agree with the earlier commentators’ descriptions of what quality campus Mental Health systems should do — namely, provide campus-wide outreach via education; facilitate rapid access to care; establish intervention mechanisms that keep track of Students at risk; and coordinate with the local Mental Health authorities for Students who need those services. But two critical points remain. First, what actions can a school take in coercing treatment when the student re...

Border Patrol Agent Charged with Harboring Illegal Alien: His Drug Dealer Father
Quite a dilemma, huh? Do you follow the oath your were sworn to uphold or do you deport your father? U.S. Border Patrol Agent Marcos Gerardo Manzano Jr. zipped around the hills along the San Diego-Tijuana border pursuing Illegal Immigrants every day. But his hunt didn't extend, authorities allege, to the illegal immigrant living in his own home — his father. Manzano's father, Marcos Gerardo Manzano Sr., was known as a Mr. Fix-it in his working-class San Diego neighborhood, who did painting...

A teachable moment (or - civility, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing)
Who bears the guilt of the Tucson shootings? » A teachable moment (or - civility, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing…) Guest posted by tim, The Godless Heathen. In honor of our friends on the Left, who somehow did a remarkable job of  keeping everything in perspective in relationship to the recent incident in Tucson, (where as you know, a young man with a gun, given to him by the NRA and directed by Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck, decided to act like an Iraqi ...

Party Approved Commentary on Arizona Atrocity
Many of you will have by now read these talking points but I want to ensure that we are all on the same page. As we move away from the direct political attack on the right because frankly the shooter was simply insane with no political affiliation (see Civilityâ„¢ )we should brow beat them with other baseless hypothetical aspects of the case for political gain. "It's safe to say there was a collective sigh of brown relief when the Tucson killer turned out to be a gringo. Had...

Authorities in northern Mexico found a bullet-ridden body Friday that matches the description of the mayor of a town near the Texas border who disappeared two days ago.

The image of this beach mecca has taken a new hit fr...

MSNBC Guest on the Rush Limbaugh Billboard in Tuscon: "We Don't Know If This Troubled, Deranged Young Man Drove Down That Partic
Listen to this absolute nonsense, The Ed Show has on Talk Radio consultant Holland Cooke to talk about the Rush Limbaugh billboard in Tucson, this guy says we don't know if that troubled deranged teen [Jared Loughner] drove down that highway. Yeah, maybe that billboard drove him over the edge. MSNBC is shameless... Holland Cooke: "I just cringed when i saw that graphic the first time you showed it because in Tucson, of all places, this week of all times, how hurtful that had to be. Free Speech ...

And in a gun-crazed society, he has the means to do it
OK, so we have a young man in Tucson shooting 19 people who is probably a paranoid schizophrenic, so the right can absolve itself that way. A New York money manager with a long history of legal battles with the government has been charged with threatening to kill 47 U.S. officials, including the nation's top securities and commodities Regulators. Vincent McCrudden, 49, last month allegedly posted online an "execution list" naming officials, including Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman M...

New York Times wrongly suggests Tucson shooter is a pro-life
Ann Coulter, of all people, makes a heck of a catch in her latest column. So here's what ABC News reported about Loughner's time in community college: One Pima Community College Student, who had a poetry class with Loughner later in his college career, said he would often act "wildly inappropriate." "One day [Loughner] started making comments about Terrorism and laughing about killing the baby," classmate Don Coorough told ABC News, referring to a discussion about Abortions. "The rest of us were...

Alaska Ear
NOWHERE BUT UP . . . Well, darlings, it's been a depressing week. After the Arizona killings came the rush by some Democrats to blame the shooting on the mean-speak of people like Our Sarah . A quick scan of the shooter's online rantings left little doubt that he was a young man disintegrating into psychosis. (We've had our share of similar types -- remember the guy who carved up kids at Mountain View Elementary School or the Mariel boatlift Refugee who stabbed his roommate to death downtown, co...
