From Think Progress:

SANTORUM: My sense is that we have an obligation to support our generals in the field, to give them the resources they need to accomplish the mission. That was not done by the prior administration. Let’s be very clear about that. They put their own political imprint on the Afghan strategy.

Poor George.  Governor Ann Richards was right. During the Democratic Presidential Convention for then Vice President Al Gore, Richards said; “Poor George…He cain’t help it.  He was born with a silver foot in his mouth.”  Well, she was mostly right: I heard it wasn’t a silver spoon, it was a coke spoon.  But who am I to quibble?

This little problem became a bit of a no-brainer after I figured out what was going on here. Nikki goes way out of her way to create a plug-in to do what WordPress already does: Import your blogroll (links) from one blogsite to another one.

I’m in the middle of ditching WordPress’s engines and supporting/hosting my own WordPress so, I can understand what she’s trying to do.  Then Nikki revisits the issue and it made even less sense.  She points to a WordPress Forum where there’s all this chatter of folks trying to import it and the Forum Hosts are ignoring everybody’s questions, blah blah blah.

This isn’t that difficult of a problem.  Let the Fruit Fly show ya how to do it…

My old blog (I’m going to just let it rot on the WordPress engine) is

http://fruitfly.wordpress.com

And of course, my new blog-site is here: http://thefruitfly.net

Easy-Peasy.  I log on as Administrator for both blogs in two different windows.  The fastest and the most efficient way to do this is go to your Tools, and click on Import for the new blog site and from the list, select Blogroll.

You’ll get this gem on your screen:

Now, in the left-hand side, the option is to give the URL for the old blog you want to import. You just add this line:

http://fruitfly.wordpress.com/wp-links-opml.php

Of course, replace “fruitfly.wordpress.com” what your blog name.

You can manually download the OPML links by going to your old crappy blog site with:

http://fruitfly.wordpress.com/wp-links-opml.php

But, there’s a glitch in it for Google’s Chrome web browser. So, I did it with my Mozilla and the window pops up with a clean slate. I just c-n-p’d the entire list, saved it as an *.OPML file.

This is an awesome video – Papa Bear tells it like it is:

At some point in time, the Religious Fanatics are going to have to come to grips with some basic facts:  Disease and Plagues are not caused by the Almighty God’s anger that’s been aimed at sin and debauchery, Witches will not float, whether they’re a witch or if they have a stone wrapped around their neck and Homosexuality will not go away, even if Hitler wished them away.
