I thought "please proceed, Governor" was the new "fuck you, you fucking fuck." He probably managed to work that one in too.

Are you sure the turkey in Romney's bowl of chili wasn't actually crow?

@1 - The important thing is that with all the new ways of saying "fuck you, you fucking fuck" why would anyone ever again say "fuck you, you fucking fuck", except for the old-timey feeling one gets from saying things like "new-fangled" or "old-timey" or "the party of Lincoln."

47 percent of your fellow citizens are fucking idiots, or morons, or criminally insane, so this was just good politics on Obama's part to play nice. Not that this will matter.

My favorite thing comes from the photo. According to the article (and the photo itself):

"nothing – except a black binder – is visible on Obama’s large wooden desk."

Subtle?

Romney: "So, how's the drone war going?"

Obama: "It's going great! Just yesterday I slaughtered a dozen doctors and rescue workers in a double-tap strike in Pakistan."

Romney: "How wonderful! Keep up the good work!"

White bean turkey chili and grilled chicken salad. I assume there was also Wonder bread with margarine, and jello mold for dessert?

It wasn't so civil. Rmoney's SUV was attacked at the gate.

Man alive do I love me some Biden!

OK. This is done. Can we now stop talking about Romney and the 2012 election forever and ever? Or at least for a few months? Please please please.

Never to meet again...

I could have been at that Costco today. I'm so disappointed I missed Joe Biden. And I still really need yogurt.

I mostly hope the white turkey chili was laced with grain alcohol and caffeine. Fuck him and his stupid religion.

Wonder if they served green jello?

Green jello is very good, especially with mayonnaise, cream cheese, a cocktail cherry, and crushed walnuts on top.

And friend and I were at the new Costco this morning. It was scheduled to open at 8am, but the mayor of DC had to be somewhere else so they cut the ribbon and let us in at 7:45 instead. It was a very cold morning, so it was quite nice that Costco had hot coffee and giant space heaters out for the 100 or so of us silly enough to show up so early.

Wandering around the store I saw Jim Sinegal and a bunch of local business leaders. My original plan was to dash in, grab something and head out. Then I saw the huge booze section. DC law doesn't allow liquor sales until 9am (I guess to make sure members of Congress at least show up to the office), so we grazed on the massive food sample (they were 3-4 times larger than the usual giveaways -- I didn't eat again until dinner) until we could pile the cart with large economy size bottles of vodka and tequila. A 1.75 liter bottle of Kirkland-brand vodka was $13.99. Sweet holy Jesus on a pogo stick, I can afford to be a drunk at these prices.

As we were pulling out of the lot, a parade of motorcycle cops, black limos and vans pulled into the parking lot. At first we thought it was the First Lady and were going to turn around and go back. Then we saw it was Biden and went home to have an early cocktail.

I hope Key & Peele do a sketch on this. I'd love to hear what Obama really told Romney behind closed doors.

@13: Suppose you sat down to eat with a Jew or Muslim who you didn't particularly like, and spiked his food with bacon grease. Dick move, bad attitude. There is no justification for attacking Romney based on his religion being weird WHEN YOU COULD ATTACK HIM FOR BEING A GENERALLY AWFUL AND CLUELESS HUMAN BEING.

I had what I thought was a fling tell me that in so many words, "Let's stay in touch, particularly if opportunities to work together on shared interests arise in the future". Come to think of it I'm not sure it was a fling, but I took the message to mean the same thing. I got it over text message too. Buuuuuurn.
