Earlier this week, President Obama and his family had a seder in the White House.
Now, I could understand if Rahm Emanuel invited the Obama to his home for a Passover meal; but to have their own seder, just their immediate family… what was this, Act Like a Jew Day? There’s a religious significance to a seder — it’s not just a fun custom. Not to mention the tricky political implications of “Next year in Jerusalem.”
Now, as Joe Biden would say, “He’s the f****** president so he can do whatever the f*** he wants” — but still, it’s just weird.

I know I shouldn’t be looking for logic in Mallard Fillmore, but…
huh??? Even the Texas conservatives who are redesigning the textbooks (not quite the same thing as “wanting input,” but whatever…) aren’t claiming that liberals are satisfied with children not being able to read and count and that the textbook changes they’re putting through are intended to correct these reading and counting ills.I swear, I’ve always suspected that Tinsley was secretly a liberal and his idea was to satirize conservatives and set up ridiculous straw arguments — and then to his horror discovered that conservatives were taking him seriously.

Unless this is somehow a reference to underwater mortgages, I got nothing.
