Nora O'Donnell is having another baby
Mr. Potato Head, Timmy, mentioned it at the end of his round table discussion today. He called it "Irish Triplets".

I didn't see it posted and it didn't come up in a search. That is all!

3. "Irish twins" or, in this case, triplets, is a phrase used to describe
siblings who are born less than a year apart.

My mother almost had two sets of Irish twins - each set of siblings were born 13 months apart.

4. I wonder how many of his viewing audience understood what he was
saying and if he lost a contingent of his Irish-Catholic viewers.

18. Yeeeowwwtch!
That hurt just reading it.

I'm too far removed from my Irish roots to be offended; but I wonder how many of his viewers might still take offense. Eh, no skin off my nose, as the saying goes.

13. Campbell Brown 'moderated' the last debate ....
Yet, her husband was a PRIMARY cheerleader for the Neocon thrust into Iraq ... He spoke many of the lies directly to the American people .... He personally and cynically defrauded the nation he allegedly loves, so that his friends and cohorts could reap the windfall of BILLIONS of American taxpayer dollars ...

Campbell, in fact, carries some of THAT money around in her purse (Im sure she has a debit card or checkbook that accesses their different shared accounts) ....

And SHE is 'moderating' Democratic party debates ?

WTF ?

21. Nope
I think Carney's wife works for ABC. Geoff owns the Power Lunch spot for Repubs in DC.

15. Campbell is..
way too good looking for Senor. I don't know where that one came from. Not to mention he is a dirty, dirty, neocon.

7. That's when you have your pregnancies within a year of each other.
It's normally called "Irish twins" and it's a way of joking about large family size with kids whose ages are close together in Catholic families.

I think she has twins already. She is married to a DC restaurant owner.

on them.

16. I could tell by Super Tuesday already
I remember seeing her and saying, gosh, she looks preggers. They have her standing in front of the exit poll screens. Not a good place to hide an expanding middle.
