I was nonchalantly webmining this afternoon and found this gem from 2008. Dunno how I missed it, but I hope the speechwriters received royalties.
There’s another amusing vid that tallied up the number of times Obama mentioned “pie” in the same speech: 15 times.
Speaking of pie, how about topping it off with a scoop of Overnight Open Thread?

Great show tonight! Really liked Barber. Wish him all the best.
Thanks Rodan for not forgetting the tragedy of the people of Iran; they are a people debased and while the MSM has let it go down the memory whole, others have not.
I like pie…
I also like baseball and hot dogs.
Chevrolets? Not so much…
Doh… Faster than you can say, McGee is a cupcake thief… (OK, so I’m watching NCIS and not really paying attention to what is going on here…)

oh no doubt, I admire Persians would love for them to throw off their Arabist government. I would go visit a free Iran, after a trip to Israel.
Best radio show so far! Really good job guys. clap clap clap
Oh this video is great.
McCain was a horrific candidate, as was Bob Dole. I have a world of respect for what they both respectively suffered through, but they were atrocious candidates. what we need is a little bit of this:

@ Rodan:
My wife has never been. Her father has been back once since the revolution and said it wasn’t the Iran he grew up in with cheesy Armenian disco music and vodka after every meal. After 9/11, the Palestinians were dancing in the streets and handing out candy; the Iranians flooded the street in support of us. Apparently no one in Washington has figured out youtube, but I’m not going to forget either image.
A free Iran would go a long way towards bringing some kind of peace to the middle east. I was ashamed talking to Iranians about our lack of support for the protesters. The people in the current regime do not deserve to die old in a bed surrounded by family and friends.

The Saudis are pre-neanderthal, and they are not our friends. And they are no friends to Europe; where do you think the money to throw up these Jihadi cultural centers in Europe (and America) come from?
Little know fact; Saudi royal family members get medical treatment in Israel on a regular basis. In Europe and Lebanon, they overdose on all of the things that they ban in their own country. The women throw hundreds of thousands out on debauched shopping trips to Italy. Even they can’t live in the country they’ve created.

After Charles used the evolution meme to purge his blog of the truly faithful,- and in the mix were also those who happened to disagree with him on the atheistic nonsense of his stance- some chose to stay there and take the abuse of his ‘poke in the eye’ harangues against God and those who believed in the Creation. What is appalling is some decided to stay there and take the abuse rather than lose placement in an arena that was,is and still antithesis to core belief in God.

One of the things the Oil Drilling Moratorium that will halt is the replacement of Diesel engines on board Oil Rigs. Recently, between assignments, rigs have been dry docked at US ports for replacements to environmentally sensitive diesel engines on board, among other modifications.
These aren’t small truck type engines but thousands of horsepower behemoths. CAT, Cummins, Detroit Diesel (American Mfgs) build these engines.
Now there will be no haste to replace them because the rigs will move OUT of US jurisdiction. An EPA requirement was that all engines have to be compliant by a certain date in the future (I don’t recall the date) or the rig would not be allowed to drill after that date.

@ mjazz:
It is difficult to summarize, in few words, the position of Creation v. Evolution and how the two are not dichotomous. There was a creation, a very beginning that was not supported by science until about 100 years ago. Science has just caught up to the notion and belief of the followers of the Eternal that there was a beginning. Science calls it the Big Bang, we call it the creation of the Universe.
Everything that would and could be called matter and eventually turn to life was born from this event. The Eternal set in motion from this one time event the energy that would form every thing we see. From the plasma of the initial event to the congregation of these energies into matter. And from that the elements that eventually formed what we now witness today.
God first created wisdom, and it is the very thing that threads our reality.
If needed and if you really want it I can quote leading physicists who now theorize that matter has no substance at all, but is rather more like a thought, idea or mind.
Anyway, back to the topic of evolution. God brought forth the Creation and in doing so contracted his presence to allow his creation to follow it natural path, based on the Laws of Nature. And with that I suggest, yes, there is room for evolution. But not in the manner the godless proclaim. They use God’s contraction and allowance of nature to run its course and absence of Him in these occurrences as proof there is no God.
But those of us who understand His place in His creation know better, because He chose to deal with it in this way.
@ 1389AD:

Mr Zero – The Yardbirds
Diamonds of silvery rain in the fountains,
And ten-cent red roses from department store counters,
Watching the moonlight reflect off the river,
Beside where the trains cross the bridge and slow down,
Trains with white letters on black iron sides,
And white rushing water that all rolls away,
And Little Miss Someone does not want to stay.
Everyone’s moving, with places to go,
And Mr Zero, he sadly stands still.
As the water goes one way, the train goes another,
Mr Zero stands still and Miss Someone don’t bother.
Yesterday’s kiss will be cold by tomorrow,
As campfires of midnight dissolve in the darkness.
The room is deserted, the blinds have been drawn,
Little Miss Someone has packed up and gone.
Fast moving cars disappear down the highway,
With signs that say “hitch-hikers: do not disturb”.
Mr Zero looks quietly up from the curb.
Morning has faded, and shadows have grown,
And Little Miss Someone is on her way home.
Mr Zero stands watching, her plane flies above,
And with frost-bitten hands waves goodbye to his love.
Walks through the park on a bright summer Sunday,
And tapestry kittens that hung on the wall.
They all die in the air like a soft minor chord,
A vacancy sign, and a bulletin board.
Mr Zero is wrapping his jacket around him,
Speaking kind words that should have been said long ago,
But Little Miss Someone does not want to know.
The night is deserted, there’s dust on the shelf,
Mr Zero sits lonely and talks to himself.
It’s too late to change, the fine line has been crossed,
The charades are all done, Mr Zero has lost.

No. God does interject his presence when needed, but these metaphysical occurrences, (miracles) are only used when needed. God has not abandoned the creation, but has left if up to what he created to run it’s course for the most part.

Just a babe in the black abyss,
No reason for a place like this,

A clever path for the fools who know

The light of the Blind -- you’ll see,
The venom tears my spine,
The Eyes of the Nile are opening -- you’ll see.
She came to me with a serpent’s kiss,
As the Eye of the Sun rose on her lips,
Moonlight catches -- silver tears I cry,
So we lay in a black embrace,
And the Seed is sown in a holy place,
And I watched, and I waited for the dawn.
The light of the Blind -- you’ll see,
The venom tears my spine,
The Eyes of the Nile are opening -- you’ll see.
Go!
Bind all of us together,
Ablaze with Hope and Free,
No storm or heavy weather
Will rock the boat you’ll see.

I invited him to stop by on an AGW thread, and he

I thought he said he flew to Romania or something to research a play he was writing.
