GravatarWorst. President. EVER.


GravatarAnd in case you missed it earlier - extra-special Rex Rabbit-blogging!


GravatarSince I posted this below, I might as well pimp here as well:

Not to make everything about me (Leo, only child) and give anybody in the wingersphere traffic (but don't all bloggers deserve hits?), but I'm really getting annoyed with Rob Douth and his accusation that I'm a Democrat.

BTW, it's our friend Robert. You remember him: asshole who bails on a debate when he knows he's outclassed?


GravatarHeads Up!

Tonight's SciFi Original Picture at (:00 PM Easter is "Epicenter"

It's a generic earthquake-type movie.

However...

Traci Lords is the star!

Yes! A GENUINE PORN STAR!

Much and goodly will be the liveblogging TONIGHT.


GravatarBush lies - suckers buy!


Gravatarcan you all imagine we got Bush and Co for another 3 years....?



GravatarWhat's love got to do (got to do?) with it?


GravatarBTW, it's our friend (Brownshirt R).

Oh, the guy who's so obsessed with me that he steals my gravatar? Well, well, well...


GravatarNTodd,

Next week, I'll dig up Robbies' blatherings as his own friend "Trevor" the "good gay." Also, his assertions that no one who supports the war should have to watch "icky" pictures of war on tv. He's the worst sort of trash. The worst.


Gravatarhey , shlock horror...

where's Eli ?


GravatarCrap, that's 9:00PM Eastern time for Epicenter, the SciFi Original Picture, starring Traci Lords.


GravatarOh, the guy who's so obsessed with me that he steals my gravatar? Well, well, well...

Well, you do have a cool gravy, so it's not that hard to believe...


GravatarAs Walter Neff would say, no matter where it is,

"First"


GravatarNext week, I'll dig up Robbies' blatherings as his own friend "Trevor" the "good gay."

Trevor is teh sexy.


GravatarHow dare he accuse of being a Democrat! Them's fighting words!


GravatarI want a new President
One with a brain.
One who can read a book,
and won't complain.

I want a new President
One with no doubts
One that won't make me nervous
Or make wars break out.

La La La


GravatarNot to make everything about me (Leo, only child) and give anybody in the wingersphere traffic (but don't all bloggers deserve hits?), but I'm really getting annoyed with Rob Douth and his accusation that I'm a Democrat.
NTodd


That was some back and forth, NTodd. I do have to tell you, however, I don't exactly enjoy reading someone who is willfully stupid, as Rob obviously is. Please warn us the next time.


GravatarFUCK!

I think I have a burned up MoBo. Unplugged everything and the little red light on the board shines, the CPU fan starts, then stops.

GODDAMMIT.

I have had more problems with this one machine!

Bout to toss it in the freeking trash!


GravatarI like Abba and show tunes!


GravatarTrevor is just Robbie, when he's being honest. Robbie also has a great excuse about how he can't sign up for Iraq because it would stick his mom and sister with his student loans. Even when shown that this is demonstrably untrue, Robbie continues to assert it. He first showed up around here about a year ago as a "sincere" troll. The "sincere" part didn't last long. He'd try to end arguments by saying he had to go off and take a test, and then would weigh in shortly later and claim he didn't have to take any tests. Robbie is a major wanker.


Gravatarthe dems only hope, if they want to avoid victory in the next election, is to get behind "stay the course".


GravatarNTodd,

Introduce Rob the mouth to this. It will make his head explode. (Small bang).

IRAQ’s insurgents have threatened to kill all the secular politicians involved in writing the country’s new constitution in an apparent attempt to push the the rival Sunni and Shi’ite communities towards civil war.


GravatarThat was some back and forth, NTodd. I do have to tell you, however, I don't exactly enjoy reading someone who is willfully stupid, as Rob obviously is.

willfully stupid. yes, that describes it well.

i judged some high school debates today. even the worst one showed more intelligence than Mr. Rob.

GravatarThe polls show that Cindy Sheehan is a polarizing figure. I guess the Democratic Senators and presidential hopefuls, EXCEPT AL GORE, have read the polls and don't want to be seen with Cindy.

Well, Sen. John Edwards didn't have balls and got his wife, Elizabeth Edwards to support
Cindy


I wonder how many of them, Sen. Biden, Sen. Edwards, Sen. Kerry, et al will ask Cindy's supporters for money and votes when they start running.

Gravatarso here's an offbeat question:

in the spring of 2001, in italy, there was an ad for the movie "E Adesso Sesso." the song for the trailer went:

"o o o ah oh uh uh uh ah oooo ooo oo... everybody everybody needs somebody..."

anyone know that song? if so, what is the name?

I think I might have the subject for a blog post.

hmmmmmmmmm.


Gravatarphil - wouldn't exercise kind of defeat the point of smoking?


Gravatarcan you all imagine we got Bush and Co for another 3 years....?

Just wanted to remind y'all of the 22nd Amendment, and the clause, "no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."

Thus the countdown is on to the moment when George becomes (more) superfluous. With slightly less than two years left in his term, something will "happen" to him, perhaps another stroke—er, I mean pretzel attack.

Then Cheney gets to make his reign official. With the mechanisms in place to rig the 2008 and 2012 elections, Dickey "Heart" Cheney then rules for nearly ten years—thus giving them time to complete their "democracy enhancement" at home and abroad.

That's your crazed conspiracy thought for the day!

Thank you, drive safely, and avoid small aircraft.

GravatarIRAQ’s insurgents have threatened to kill all the secular politicians involved in writing the country’s new constitution in an apparent attempt to push the the rival Sunni and Shi’ite communities towards civil war.


Wingers and warbloggers like to misquote Orwell.

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf?" Or: "We sleep safely at night because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would harm us?"

But Orwell never said that. He did make comments that were along similar lines. In his essay on Rudyard Kipling (1942), Orwell wrote: "[Kipling] sees clearly that men can only be highly civilized while other men, inevitably less civilised, are there to guard and feed them." And in his 'Notes on Nationalism' (1945) he wrote: "Those who "abjure" violence can only do so because others are committing violence on their behalf." Where the rough men crept in is anyone's guess but I think you could say that Saddam was one of them, preventing the very thing we have caused in Iraq. The same thing happened in Russia, unless the Chechies were taking theaters and schools and we just didn't hear about it. Bring 'em on!

GravatarPreparing for the "worst case"...
I thought the mission was accomplished


Army Planning for 4 More Years in Iraq

By ROBERT BURNS, AP Military Writer

Saturday, August 20, 2005

(08-20) 14:49 PDT WASHINGTON, (AP) --

The Army is planning for the possibility of keeping the current number of soldiers in Iraq — well over 100,000 — for four more years, the Army's top general said Saturday.


In an Associated Press interview, Gen. Peter Schoomaker said the Army is prepared for the "worst case" in terms of the required level of troops in Iraq. He said the number could be adjusted lower if called for by slowing the force rotation or by shortening tours for soldiers.


Schoomaker said commanders in Iraq and others who are in the chain of command will decide how many troops will be needed next year and beyond. His responsibility is to provide them, trained and equipped.

Bush: Troops in Iraq protect US from terror


August 20 2005 at 03:18PM

Crawford, Texas - American President George Bush said on Saturday that United States troops in Iraq were fighting to protect Americans at home from terrorism like the September 11 attacks four years ago.

"Our troops know that they're fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere to protect their fellow Americans from a savage enemy," Bush said in his weekly radio address.

"They know that if we do not confront these evil men abroad, we will have to face them one day in our own cities and streets, and they know that the safety and security of every American is at stake in this war, and they know we will prevail," he said.

20s is out of date for my area at least. The groundwork was laid. But Fisher, Shepard, and such had not yet built some remarkable tests, both inferential and non-inferential. You can go to any college bookstore and find a good used stats text-or online. I am not sure what you are looking for. But there are some wonderful models out there now, e.g., non-Euclidian stats, circular statistics....


GravatarUnited States troops in Iraq were fighting to protect Americans at home from terrorism like the September 11 attacks four years ago.

-- Played on sidewalks made from sand at the Nevada test site
