Phuck Philly.com
this is the internet organ, as it were, for the now-fascist-leaning inquirer and soon-to-be-fascist Daily News. It is becoming increasingly dick-headed and this is a good example:

Palin drubs Obama on abortion during Pa. rally

The Associated Press

JOHNSTOWN, Pa. - Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin is attacking Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's position on abortion.

Palin says a vote for Obama is, in her words, "a vote for activist courts that will continue to smother the open and democratic debate that we deserve and that we need on this issue of life."

Palin made her remarks Saturday during a rally before about 5,000 people in Johnstown, about 60 miles east of Pittsburgh.

On Saturday night, the self-described "hockey mom" is scheduled to drop the ceremonial first puck when the Flyers open their NHL season in Philadelphia against the New York Rangers.
_______________________________________

Now my sources tell me that the word "drub" means:


1. to beat with a stick or the like; cudgel; flog; thrash.
2. to defeat decisively, as in a game or contest.
3. to drive as if by flogging: Latin grammar was drubbed into their heads.
4. to stamp (the feet).


when I use the word drub, I use it to mean that someone was decisively beaten in a contest, for example, "The Phillies drubbed the hapless L.A. Dodgers 17-3 in the final game of the NLCS."

the website, edited by morans, is looking to show Obama as a loser.

Lots of luck on nov. 5, pals.

1. Well... they actually didn't write the copy, AP did.
But it will be interesting to see what the editorials will be tomorrow.
