Treasury Secretary John Snow is going around trumpeting U.S. deficit reduction as proof of a strong dollar policy. Really. Bold-faced lie or Bald Incompetence? Scrutiny Hooligans have the story

Bush opposes Israel-Syria peace talks
This is just about the least sensible news I've heard in a long time. America invades a Middle Eastern country to ensure peace and stability, but later is against peace talks between two of the region's countries who have fought numerous wars in the past? Forward's Ori Nir has the story entitled "As Israel Debates Syrian Overture, Washington Presses To Stop Talks":
While Syria's repeated offers to reopen peace talks with Jerusalem are triggering a fierce debate within the Israeli military and political establishment, the Bush administration appears united in its opposition to launching such negotiations.

Kitties love new household items.
Kitties love new household items.
Speaking of kitties in christmas trees, when I was a kid my mother was absolutely insane about xmas. And she used to get these really gigantic trees to go in the vaulted space in our family room.
One year we had a pair of kittens in the house- they pretty much camped out in the tree, running up and down the trunk (like little squirrels) and sleeping on the larger branches.
Their best trick was hiding behind big ornaments, then leaping out at unsuspecting tree admirers.
The tree was so big there was no way to reach in and grab them- it drove my mother insane (we all thought it was a hoot).

Yeah, put up some more ornaments, maybe some candy canes so they can take them off and bat them around the house. They might be gay. You do seem to have quite a few photos of them all over each other.

I'm NOT having a tree this year - I have to have small trees, and I have 2 six month old kittens who have already climbed my ceiling high aralia (disaster) and my 15 year old window ivy (disaster)....
I think being SO cute is their version of protective coloring.....

Kitties + Christmas trees = entertainment. Our big one just stares at it mesmerized, but the little one likes to surf on the tree skirt.
You'll see him back up to take a running start, leap onto the tree skirt, and ride it across the smooth hardwood floors half the length of the house. Fun that never gets old!

Well, our resident psychocat, Oski, is nearly three and we can't have a tree, no way, no how. He'd tear it up in a second.
As for childhood Christmas tree stories, we had a tree that was brought down one year when I was a kid. Only it wasn't the cat that did it. It was my sister and I, trying to pull off the strings of bubblegum balls my parents thought would look oh-so-precious wrapped around our 10-foot tree. The cat, who just wanted to sleep under the branches and drink the fetid water in the tree dish, was not amused...

4legs,
That's a great kitty/tree story. I had a cat once that leaped into my Xmas tree, knocked it down and broke most of my ornimants. Scared her so badly she was content to excersize her claws on the trunk from then on.

Sometimes I look at these images of normality and hope that one day, perhaps, I can escape the hell of abuse and sexual domination I live with every day.
But please do not judge me. What makes it difficult for me to "just leave" is precisely that thing which would make me want to leave. And where are the guarantees that he won't find me? That he won't track me down at whatever shelter I'm lucky enough to find? And what does one do with no job skills, no credit history, no network of friends to depend on?

Ya know Atrios, I think that Cat-on-Cat cuddling thing is just something the male cats do. My two cats, Ernie and Boots, do the same thing (see pictures here and here. Then again, Ernie does try to get on Boots every now and then. I think maybe they're confused, since the little kitty bits and pieces have been removed.
Just sayin'

I've just discovered that my cat dislikes Bob Dylan. I was here listening to Like a Rolling Stone, and Ernie waltzes into the room, jumps into my lap, and bites my hand. I change the music to Ella Fitzgerald, and he licks my hand where he bit me. Go figure.

cat-on-cat cuddling?
in days of yore my male-female pair used to trot through the apartment heading for the bedroom. I'd sneak a look and find them stretched out on the bed face to face limbs entwined.
Was always the male, tho', who did the grooming of the female. After his tragic demise, the female starting coughing up hairballs, which she'd never had before.

Like the Christmas tree skirt story, I have a cat that likes to rug surf. Any throw rug is always several feet from where it is supposed to be. It's always funny how they have more fun with household objects than they do with all the toys you buy them. One cat was mad for Q-tips to the point she would get up into the bathroom cupboard and take them out of the box. And another loved to snatch the refrigerator magnets off and play with them.

Last year, when the cat was a kitten, we didn't put any of the really good, breakable ornaments on the tree. I can't decide if I can trust him now or not. He doesn't do anything other than lay under the tree - no climbing.
On the other hand, I would hate to lose a number of the breakable ornaments we have - some of them are really old and some are really special. I guess I'll go with mostly unbreakable again. The things one does for one's cats.

We used to pull it out of our cat's butt. She couldn't stop eating it. But she didn't like getting it pulled out of her butt.

Atrios, where's your tinsel? Do you not like it, or is it too much of a temptation for the cats?
And what are you doing with a tree, anyway? I thought we all hated Christmas! I put a wreath of laurel on my bust of Joe Stalin, but other than that my holiday observances have been limited to telling pre-schoolers that Santa Claus is a racist, paternalistic, capitalist myth.

Mike Stark, Now that's an image... Did she say anything cute when you pulled the string, hehe.
I used to put battleship pieces (the torpedo-type parts, not the ships...) into my cat's nose to make him sneeze. Cat sneezes, quite funny.

I am amazed that your tree is still standing with ornaments. My cat Napoleon ( now deceased) would throw himself at top speed at the upper half of the tree and it would topple and slowly bust up all the decorations and the tree for that matter. He only did it for the first few days and nights each Christmas, but he did it whenever the tree wasn't guarded.

When I was growing up,the cats used to eat the edible ornaments- cookies and chocolates wrapped in foil. They would spit out the foil, we found the little balls on the floor.
I like the way the gray one is hiding behind the tree-like he's waiting for some prey to come along.

Jenny from the Blog - I know my cat's a genius. He can't stand not knowing how something works. He'll turn himself inside out trying to figure things out. He opens every cupboard, every door and you can watch as he examines every angle of everything. He won't stop with something until he knows everything about it.
Little scientist, my cat.

Tena, we had a cat like that too. She was fascinated by the toilet, especially when being flushed. One day she was sitting on top of the tank and reached down with one paw and pushed the handle. She made it flush. Then never cared about the toilet again. It was a cool trick, but she never did it again.

Philalethes -- Hysterical. If I had a bust of Stalin, I'd want a wreath for it, too. (Actually, I think one of these years I'm going to put up a Hannukiah, just to drive my Christmas-mad family crazy. Then again, I am the dotty, fractious relative.)

Not only armpit snuggle, whenever she saw the suitcase appear on the bed, she'd sit in the middle of the floor and glare - I mean GLARE - at me. She was a gray - like Atrios', but green eyes and a pointier face. When she sensed I was going overseas, she clung to my neck.

When the ceiling fan was installed in my former new house I took my snugglin' glarin' cat to see the acquisition and she FREAKED OUT. Shot out of my arms and headed for the farthest corner in a closet. If she came into the house from the patio and the fan was on, she was outta there. Could never use the ceiling fan when kitty was around.
My father speculated that it was the old fear of flying raptors kicking in ...
Maybe.

Rorschach, just noticed your post on wedding licenses from New Paltz being invalid. As it happens, I got married in that very town. Obviously, I support them issuing gay marriage licenses, so I'm wondering: Am I better off raising a fuss about it, or ignoring it? Has anyone speculated on what frame of mind BushCo's trying to promote among straight couples, and how to counteract it?

Phila--Good question. I think raising people's consciousness about this issue is crucial.
And since so many of the anti-gay marriage amendments are so broadly worded as to invalidate a huge array of legal arrangements for gays and straights, I think the New Paltz is a very interesting and useful case in point, to help straights understand how it feels to be shut out.
That's my take on it.

The Other Washington - Mine does that, too. He was particularly fascinated by a toilet I was having trouble with in Colorado. I kept having to take the lid off the tank to stop it from running and the cat watched me do it a number of times. Then I was in the kitchen and heard the toilet flush. I went in there, and there he was. He did it several times until he got the procedure down. Then he quit.

they had a veteranarian on UNFILTERED today & she said one of the dangers of cats eating tinsel is that one end will come out their butt, while the other end will be wrapped around the base of their tongue.
DONT PULL THE TINSEL OUT THE BUTT, because this pulls their tongue AND makes a sawing motion in their intestine.
i know that sounds freaky, but thats what she said!!!

You know Moore's Ten Commandments Rock is on a "rock tour" right now. What's really noticeable in the newsstories about it is that very few people turn out to see it. And it is in deepest red state country. Looks like the fundis aren't as popular as they think they are.

Still like the calendar idea though, maybe Atrios can do it for his spring fundraiser. He said he raised enough money last time to get him through the election, but that has passed. We all need to be thinking about sending the boy some money after the new year because I for one need this site for my therapy.

I think the New Paltz is a very interesting and useful case in point, to help straights understand how it feels to be shut out.
That's my take on it.

Yeah, I agree. It seems like it'll be counterproductive for the fundie agenda in the long run. I don't think very many people are going to blame this on gays, when it's obviously a pointless and meanspirited governmental decision.
I did some more research on the implications, and it turns out my marriage isn't actually affected by this decision, so my ability to raise a fuss on those grounds is limited.
God, I fucking hate these people.

rorschach & Philalethes - Yeah, I agree. It seems like it'll be counterproductive for the fundie agenda in the long run
I really am convinced of that. In fact, I expect the fundies to run the whole fundie thing into the ground by next summer, at the very latest.
Honestly, most Americans don't them. I think what happened is that, like me, lots and lots of people didn't take them seriously and didn't realize what was happening.
I still believe that equal rights for gays and lesbians is an inevitability.

Someone asked if Atrios' grey kitty was a Russian Blue, and I believe in the past Atrios has said the grey kitty is a Russian Blue mix. Makes sense to me...the grey kitty sure does look a lot like a Russian Blue mix from my teenagerhood named Nikita.

When i was a kid, we had a cat named Reggie who, from the time he was a kitten to the time he decided to ditch us - and adopted the old lady across the street as his new human - used to enjoy stealing, batting the hell out of and then hiding those stick-on bows from the Christmas presents.
My two current cats aren't quite so charming in their treatment of presents.
One likes to shred wrapping paper (or any paper that gets her attention), and the other one (another spayed female, go figure) will pee on any paper surface big enough and level enough for her to assume the position...
she's litter trained, but will bypass the box if there is paper about... weirdo.

Has anyone speculated on what frame of mind BushCo's trying to promote among straight couples, and how to counteract it?
Well, they're trying to scare the crap out of them. Same as with everything else. If it ain't the terraists, it's the gays. If it ain't the gays, it's the Social Security CRISIS!
How to counteract it, I don't know. Not when they keep exceeding my cynicism.
For years we've been making fun of the "gay marriage scare" by joking, "my goodness, if gays get married, that will destroy my straight marriage!" Satire. You know. The obvious point that gay marriage will have no effect on your straight marriage whatsoever, so what are people afraid of?
See what they're doing? I think they're getting their ideas from leftist satire.
I had a satirical post up at my place a couple of weeks ago about how we should draft the elderly to slove the problems of troop numbers and Social Security simultaneously. Then during a troll infestation here some wingnut seriously brought up the idea of sending the elderly to Iraq. No, he hadn't been reading my blog... he was just excited about, well, solving problems and fighing Islamofascism.
O brave new world, that has such creatures in it.

Yet another cultural victory for the forces of darkness. The folks at the SAT have announced some educationally embarrassing changes for 2005.
Students who take the revised test, which will be introduced in school districts in Kansas and Georgia in the fall of 2005, will no longer be tested on their ability to comprehend passages from scientific texts that are based on the controversial theory of evolution. Instead, they will read excerpts from writings on such creation-related topics as the six days in which God created the earth or the great flood, then answer a series of questions to indicate how well they've understood the passages.
I guess the Jesus fish is going to consume the Darwin fish after all.

Sure.
Being hateful is hard work. Most people aren't intrinsically mean-spirited (I don't care what Richard Viguerie says), but a lot of people feel a moral obligation to be hateful on this one issue, and this year the GOP made it easy for them.
It's our job to convince them that that moral obligation is nonsense.

OT - Just posted at Yahoo
A judge Friday granted a state Republican Party request to block the counting of hundreds of recently discovered King County ballots in the governor's race, which the GOP's candidate is winning by just a few dozen votes.
Even if the election workers wrongly rejected the ballots 150 of which were discovered Friday it is too late for King County to reconsider them now, Pierce County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Arend said.
The issue of the ballots could prove pivotal: With all but two counties finished with a hand recount, Republican Dino Rossi was leading Democrat Christine Gregoire by 43 votes.
Think the decision was made without looking at the results?

The video actually rather reminds me of my friend's black-belt gamut a couple weeks back.
She goes to a nearly-all-women dojo, and many of the women are small and lithe, whereas my friend plays center for the Austin women's football team.
She shoved them all over the place, for all their fancy moves. (Hers were fancy too.)

Hmmm...having read that poll story more carefully, it's kind of heartening. "Forty-eight percent said liberties [of Muslims] should not be restricted in any way."
48 percent for liberties, vs. 44 percent against? That sounds like a mandate to me!
Also, "The survey showed that 27 percent of respondents supported requiring all Muslim Americans to register where they lived with the federal government." With that figure, I think we may have discovered the exact percentage of pea-brained, unpatriotic, ineducable wingnuts in this country.

"Well, of course! Cowardice and fascism go hand in hand."
That is an interesting observaation. To me fascism is the adult version bullies and their lackies. The lackies feel enabled because they crowd behind a strong leader and the strong leader is enabled because he has more fire power.
I figure a good portion of the Right who ae more radical are actually lackies, following their perceived leader.On their own, they would shrivel up and vanish.

LGF has the story about 44% supporting curtailing civil rights on their page...i was appalled. These people call themselves PATRIOTS for chrissakes and how much they love the CONSTITUTION and the original intent of the framers and all that, yet they support CURTAILING CIVIL LIBERTIES. As part of a government program against a particular RELIGIOUS GROUP. What part of 'f@%#$@#-ing stupid fascist crap' don't they understand?! And the LGF crowd are all like "Hell yeah!"
I am friggin appalled.

This is the key, I think, to the difference between the mentality of the right and that of the left.
Or not right v. left maybe, but thinking v. parroting.
It's the willingness to argue from authority that may be the greatest bane on Western thought these days. The willingness to accept the arguments and evidence proffered by those in power.
That's why libertarians, who are dead wrong about many things, are better than these lockstep Bushies.

Has anyone ever tried to explain Eddie Izzard to someone not familiar with him?
I had to brow beat my wife to sit and watch one of his shows on HBO or Showtime. For the first 10 minutes she just kept looking at me like I had lost my mind. By the end she was laughing as hard I did.

Yeah, bigvic, it was. There's an account of it at my partner's site here.
Other than, you know, new floors, and a contractor that'll raise our house a foor or two, no, just the books. Unless you can replace our photographs.
A tragedy, but it'll pass.

Spinoza--
Yes, we think he is a Maine Coon. I wrote about him last week. He's the one who has seizures when he sleeps. He's a beauty, isn't he? We got him as an adult stray, and we've had him for three years. We moved him from California to Washington. He's done pretty well.

I have noticed when I argue with a well planted person on the right, they end up looking disturbed if they simply do not succumb to using the monotonal party line approach.
When you make them think, they begin to wobble a bit. It is not what they were told to expect.

EkCenTriK,
Years ago I lived in the country and had a cat (Amelia) that was a prolific hunter, an unstoppable killing machine. Rabbits, squirrels, packrats, mice, birds, snakes, you name it- she'd dispatch them and drop them right in front of my door, then would stand there and meow plaintivley until you came to look. Once I moved into town, that stopped like turning off a faucet. I never did understand why.

Central,
My cat Herky used to line up her prey, execution style at the front door. I'd dash off to work only to find little black mice, Chipmunks, and even a headless squirrel once. She was so gentle in every other way. Man, she was quite the hunter.

Back when I was getting my Master's, I had a couple of inside/outside cats. One night my future exwife and I were tripping (hard) and one of our cats brought a live snake into the house.
Several hectic minutes later, the snake was back outside.
Later, we noticed the cat clawing at the rugs we had underneath the cage of my cockatoo. Lifting up the rug, we found that the cat had gone out, gotten the snake, brought it back inside, and hidden it, still alive, under the carpet.

Trout is quite a beauty. What kind of dog is he?
That's a nice pond too,.
We had a pond in California, and a raccoon came one night and ate 12 of 13 koi. Now, we have a pond here in Washington, and a blue heron has been eating our gold fish in broad daylight. It's not a very big pond. Ever wonder how a blue heron could find 10 six inch gold fish, in a small pond in the great northwest. and we can't even find bin Laden, go figure.

Funny you should mention that. I have a cat named Amelia, too. We live in the burbs outside Washington, so there's not much wildlife for her to prey upon. Instead Amelia devotes a great deal of attention to intimidating our other cat named Sam, who spent his kittyhood in a girl's dorm and who was permanently scarred by the experience.

That Jacky boy is quite tree hugger.
Jack is a tree molestor. The cat tree was too close too the Christmas tree, so Jack thought it would be fun to launch himself from the former into the latter. He took off with such force that the cat tree rocked back then tipped over forward into the Christmas tree, sending it crashing down as well. I happened to watch this spectacle, with Rizzo sitting at my feet. Rizzo immediately looked up at me with a look that said very clearly, "wow, am I glad I didn't do that."

Rexroth's Daughter,
Trout's a blue heeler mix, I think. He was 5 or 6 months old when I got him as a stray, so I don't really now what he is.
That sucks about your fish. I've lost a few to kingfishers, but so far no problem with herons. (Fingers crossed) I hear a statue of a heron will keep them away, as they are solitary hunters and won't land if thwy see another one working an area. It worked for a woman I know that was having a problem with them.

Ah, I thought Trout might be a Blue Healer. I had a friend many years ago with one. They are such beauties.
That is great news about a statue of a blue heron. We will definitely try that. I think the blue heron has eaten every one of our fish, but we'll try again in the spring. We buy feeder fish and let them grow and hope for the best. We had this batch for about six months before the heron discovered them. This is our first year in Washington, so we are just getting accustomed. We now know about the herons, and we'll keep our eyes out for the kingfishers. Thanks for the tip.
