Obama Power Grab - Again + Wednesday Robo-Love

Speaking of asshattery… This bill will grant dictatorial powers to the President, no ifs ands or buts…

This legislation, essentially, confers on the federal government police powers that, under our system, are the exclusive preserve of state and local government.

Ok, It's a lazy man's link fest. The real world has a tendency to intrude on a dude every now and then. If you have the time, have a sample of these excellent Bloggers and their unique insights on the political weather patterns.

Robo-Love Sunday!

Howdy to the readers of The Other McCain from the Robot! There be an Other McCain-alanche going on here today. Thanks to you Smitty and RSM sirs.

It seems Irish Cicero over at Washington Rebel and Steve from The Resistance and Motor City Times have thrown some linkage at the Bot as well.

Of course I would be negligent if I did not mention The Classic Liberal, who has also linked this site on many occasions.

Here are some other friends who need a good thanking.

I'm wondering if imaginary, artistic, shiny, metallic robot wimmin qualify for The Other McCain's Rule 5? Tune in Sunday to find out...

Sunday Update: Ding! Ring the bell, win a prize. Hits! Lots of hits. thanks to Smitty and RSM for the linkage! Hydraulic hottie. I like it.


UPDATE: WyBlog points out the Robot's erection tools, then picks up the motivational torch and runs with it. All the way to Jersey! That's OK though. We needs lots of motivation up in that neck o' the woods these days and it would appear that at least one of them WyBlog girls has some tools of her own.
