    That picture makes me think of Rahm the Vampire, and how, during her White House visit, he turned Stephanie Meyer into a sobbing pile of sexual need with single glance, and thus was born the Twilight book about how RPat's character leaves Bella and the vampire babies for a life in politics due to the hot machinations of this vampire mentor dude who is surprisingly JUST LIKE RAHM, but not, and then, somehow, an entire fanfic genre is born featuring Rahm, Jon Stewart and their put-upon sparkly houseboy RPat.

    God, Mondays. I need more coffee.

    Yeah, I'd like to see him driving that pile. He should let me know if he needs any help with that.

    Seriously, he sounds like an absolute nightmare to work for. But he's so fucking hot I'd get over that real quick.

    @OrneryBabe: Embarassing but true: the thought of being in the middle of a Rahm/Ari sandwich makes me want to touch myself. And I'm sure we could probably work the doctor brother in too, though I'm not sure where we'd put him.

    @PandoraSpocks: not even close to true. rahm is smart and powerful and has a long memory and makes deposits and withdrawls from the favors bank, which is all in the standard job description for his role.

    karl rove is a lying spawn of the devil who undermined democracy for fun and carried water for every miscreant trolling for dollars in the most corrupt administration in history, and is not at all hot

    @if_i_only_had_a_heart: Rahm E. is hot and you can bet he fucks like a champ! Not Karl Rove, that slacks-wearing pile of blubbery yecccch! No, I thought we were done with him!

    But just to contrast him with our beloved Rahm, here is a blast from Gawker's past, via tammyfey: "Is there anyone, but anyone, more physically repulsive than Karl Rove? Can you imagine that clammy loaf of suet climbing on top of you while being drenched in rivulets of lukewarm spittle? Can you hear his feeble, raspy wheeze and smell his fetid breath and traces of Old Spice while you wonder how life will ever have any worth when this ghastly violation has passed?"

    And me: "As the deed is about to finish, he calls out in his wretched, love-deprived voice, 'Mother!' then spurts out two tiny droplets. His erect micropenis does not drain any blood, it just falls off to the side a bit--the right side, of course. "

    @PandoraSpocks: Difference: Rahm was elected at least once. Even Dick Cheney at one point convinced enough people to vote for him to get into Congress. Rove was never elected to anything other than student council because he's a revolting worm.

    The part that stuck out to me was one of Rahm's favorite sayings. Something about in politics, you're always either pitching or catching.

    Ah, Rahm. Yes, politics is just one endless gay sex party.

    Riiight. It's definitely black people who are the financially responsible ones. It's not black people who are weighing down the system with their consumption of government entitlements and purchasing shiny things they can't afford to live the "hip-hop lifestyle".

    Come on. In the same way that Sarah Palin and Britney Spears are different types of people who happen to be white --- there are different types of black people.


    Not everyone is on the hippity hop train, you know.

    Incompetence is color blind.


    Just look at Stanley O'Neal who was one of a group of people directly responsible for bankrupting Merrill Lynch (while playing golf around the clock and earning an eight figure salary).


    Or Carl McCall the former NY Comptroller who approved a NINE figure annual salary to the chairman of the NYSE.


    As for Parsons my friends in senior positions at Time Warner told me he was a "people person" with strong social skills but he did absolutely nothing...NOTHING....to turn Time Warner or AOL around. It mystified them how he earned so much for doing next to nothing of consequence.


    And on the topic of Citigroup it is absurd to me that Citigroup was still trying to take over Wachovia and everything else while running its existing operations into the ground.


    The only solution is to let women (including Michelle) run America for a one year trial period.

    and can anyone explain to me how it made sense to put Parson...who has no banking experience...in charge of Citigroup? Couldn't they find someone like the guy who runs TD Bank (formerly Commerce Bank) who knows what they are doing?

    Now the real fun begins. Citi, AIG, and then BofA. Citi and AIG are inseparable since some ridiculous percentage of AIG loans came from Citi. Rumors are starting to surface that AIG is being used to funnel money to China. Anyone know if the AIG Liddy is related to G. Gordon Liddy? They both come from Jersey. Ed Liddy has an interesting background.

    I met her when I was 17 and she's BEAUTIFUL. Then I met her again when I was 18 - at a Chicago Public Library dinner honoring John Updike (R.I.P. homie - who is great b/c he signed all 1000 books I brought along lol) and she remembered my name and what school I went to and everything.


    She's a real class act. I don't think she forgets names and face - an excellent social grace. Definitely the right woman for the job.
