Sounds Japanese, huh.
–So he wants to create jobs, huh? Clever choice there. …Nothing on the “individual mandate” or “paying for someone else’s abortion”, though, maybe? Wonder why not. . .
Re ScoBro’s “Mass”-ive victory last night, see Michael Tomasky in the Guardian, Brown wins, now what?, mentioning a

In other news, it’s the first anniversary of Presidentism for Obama. But how many more anniversaries will he have? And will they be happier than this one? Can they be sadder??

…Mr Brown attacked the new Tory poster with the smoothie-chops picture of David Cameron. Admittedly it looks as if someone had tried to play Mr Potato Head with a piece of veal. …
Ouch!
–What is this, a new decade or something??

Will 30,000 more to Afghanistan be enough? If we had to field 300,000, we could. (In World War II, we had well over 10 million men under arms…)
See the Guardian, Spanish region takes hands-on approach to sex education: Officials launch campaign to teach young people about ’sexual self-exploration and discovery of self-pleasure’,
It is a subject that would make most governments blush, but officials in the Spanish region of Extremadura have launched a major programme to encourage what could be described as a more hands-on approach to sexuality.
The region’s socialist government has launched a €14,000 (£12,600) campaign aimed at teaching young people how best to set about “sexual self-exploration and the discovery of self-pleasure” – or to put it less delicately: masturbation.
“Pleasure is in your own hands” is the slogan of a campaign that has sparked political controversy and challenges traditional Roman Catholic views on people having sex, even on their own, for non-reproductive reasons.
“This is an intimate subject that should be dealt with at home,” complained local opposition leader Hernández Carrón of the rightwing People’s party. “We have become the laughing stock of Spain.” …
Commentators questioned why the poorest region in Spain was paying for a campaign to promote onanism.
“Extremadura should be pleased with itself,” sniped Pilar Rahola, a columnist in the Barcelona-based La Vanguardia newspaper. “It may have the most unemployed young people in Spain, but they will be the best at masturbation.”
A Pilar of the community. Give her a listen.
Semper Fi.
