You’ve all heard of the classic “bobblehead doll.” Well a minor league baseball team in Minnesota is paying homage to Senator Larry Craig by offering the first 2500 fans attending Sunday’s game a “bobblefoot doll.” Awesome. (h/t Scarce)

Let the turd storm begin
no shit
more bum sores than the mighty eagle soars.
Got my tix. Go Saints.
You call that an “honor?” How ’bout Idaho changing State Symbol from
Spuds … to Gay Studs.
Incoming!!! Keep your young ass down P2B! And BTW Hey Brother.
It might be a long night.
I know C&L is trying to stay out of the Democratic nomination fight but why on earth are you guys not even mentioning the RFK reference yet you have an article about Hillary being VP??
Sloan47 @ 8:
That may kill her chance of being VP.
i am so proud to be an american right now. that is the funniest f#cking thing i have ever seen in my life. next to the flying fallus at the kasperov speach. awesome
Sloan47 @ 8:
I think we’re expecting a few casual references the RFK thing tonight.
Why were the comments shut down on the Hillary story? If you don’t want free comments, don’t post the article. I feel as though you are censoring us by not allowing us to put our two cents worth in.
[”The Hillary Story” as you call it was not about her comment. We did not post an article about the comment, then close it. We posted an article about something else and commenters were off topic and abusive to the site and John. We take a lot of static, be we won’t stand for that. Your criticism is off base-Sitemonitor]
Ron @ 9:
At this point her chance of being VP IS dead.
(And before anyone asks or assumes, I am a DEMOCRATIC supporter… whoever that may be. With that remark tonight… she lost my support.)
You know, I’m half tempted to watch FOX Noise to see how the mongrels are spinning the latest faux pas.
Between Hillary and Huckery I hope Obama doubles his security detail

Backatcha, PtG :)
Hey Ron, ya phat baddy ;-}
There is always so much going on at St. Paul Saints games that you hardly know there is baseball being played. I wonder if they sent a bobblehead to wide-stance Larry in Idaho?
Is Larry Craig still a United States Senator?? Then.. The joke is on us.

Too aerodynamic for me.
Hillary apologizes for spitting on RFK’s grave. What bugs me most is she brought it up while his brother just got out of the hospital for a terminal illness. Can sunscreen hurt
coral? Driving is at the lowest since the Carter years. The Pentagon blew another $15 billion.
on the “open” theme of this thread…got a screengrab of Flea at the W. Conf Finals.
You gotta care to sport that jersey!
Sloan47 @ 8:
Trying to skip that anger stage and go straight to bargaining? If only denial could be crossed first. Unfortunately, in Hillary-math all three stages are played simultaneously and the fourth is always… just… out… of… reach.
three cheers for the cold beers!go hillary 08!
Ron @ 9:
Or any other office , one can only hope ! .
Just in case anyone missed KO give it to Hillary!

lafin gas @ 27:
Thank god for Olbermann. His special comments are spot on as usual!
I want a Bobblefoot! Suspect there will be a lot of bidding when they start showing up on EBay, though.
Next promotion — Hillary with foot firmly embedded in mouth? Nah — everyone would probably stay home from the game to avoid getting one.
lafin gas @ 27:
Watched it and KO really made the point. No matter what we know that some of the crazies think, there is no reason to speak about it publicly. I hope they at least double the security for Obama. Gobama.
Sloan47 @ 29:
Amen! Those made me cry.
I didn’t think even she could stoop that low.
And where are her supporters? This truly IS unforgivable and indefensible.
I also thought surely C&L would make some mention of it if not actually put up the Special Comments.
It’s disappointing to say the least.
You know if I could get one of these bobblefoot things I’d donate it to either The Daily Show or The Colbert Report. It deserves the widest possible audience.
why all the fuss? in this country if they want you dead your dead!
Ron @ 9:
Here’s a thought, you might actually want to read the entire article or better yet, watch the video. The newspaper has already come out to say that Hillary’s statement was fine, but rabid obamaholics and dipstix like KO (especially) couldn’t wait to start the vile spew. Even RFK, Jr. said he did not take offense to what Hillary said. She even apologized so as to quell the faux outrage. She’s strong, a fierce fighter and her opponent’s followers can keep up the shit, but it makes them look small and their messiah even smaller.
ezpz @ 32:
Frankly I thought it was way over the top. Also I suspect it will be posted here about five hundred times a day. A dedicated thread seems excessive.
Tonya Harding for president 08
When I worked credit card fraud for a noted Seattle company, I often crossed paths with Secret Service guys. Our guy, George, was assigned to Jesse Jackson. He was back to the Seattle office in a big damn hurry.

Link?
ezpz @ 32:
Go read RFK, Jr.’s comments on this….he isn’t bothered. Why are you?
and now i can rant
that fuckin hillary has gone too far…and i dont care if you clinton backers dont vote for obama…if you can continue to support her, you are as batshit as she is
i say batshit, because only a wingnut evil enough to bring up the assasination of robert kennedy as a reason to stay in a race….and as she insists that she is a progressive dem…she must be out of her fuckin mind
and no one that crazy should ever be allowed to be prez
no wonder bill had to go around the country bangin everything in a skirt…im just amazed he stuck it out with the crazy old loon
so hillary…do yourself and the country a favor…immediately check in to your local asylum…and take all your batshit supporters with you
there…i have just solved the dem nomination, housing, energy and employment crisis in one fell swoop
Ron @ 31:
KO’s point seemed to be I am going to make an ass out of myself tonight, no matter what. Please spare everyone the fake outrage. Edward R. Murrow must be spinning in his grave.

Thank you Hillary,
The RFK comment was nothing more than a subliminal suicide bomb for your campaign. Please inform Getalife, Abarts, Dennis, and especially LA Confidential(who by the way, pissed on his credibility claiming to be neutral in the Obama v Hillary battle) that your long, depressing, shitty, Republican style run is mercifully over.
