GravatarCindy Sheehan calls out Hillary:

While in New York, Mrs Sheehan directly signaled out Hillary Clinton and accused here of opportunism. "She knows that the war is a lie but she is waiting for the right moment to say it. Mrs. Clinton, if you don't say it now, you risk losing your job."

GravatarThe Left, being nice people, try to find an explanation for Bush's behavior. Alcohol, drugs, fetal alcohol syndrome. But in fact, he's just an evil son-of-a-bitch!


Gravatarfrom der Times:

Speakers at the rally included a newcomer to the modern antiwar movement, Cindy Sheehan, the California mother whose son was killed last year fighting in Iraq. Ms. Sheehan has become the face of the movement because of her efforts over the summer, encamping near Mr. Bush's ranch in Crawford, Tex. Her appearance and brief remarks drew a thunderous response.

"I really haven't had a chance to digest all this," she said in an interview after her speech, referring to the attention she has received. "I hope I'm a catalyst for change, but I don't want to be the focus of change."

But the crowd also heard from old lions of the antiwar movement, like the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the actress Jessica Lange, Ralph Nader and former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, who has endorsed impeaching Mr. Bush.

Mr. Jackson reminded the crowd that the war proceeded without proof that Iraq had unconventional weapons or a connection to Al Qaeda, saying, "We deserve another way and better leadership."

He urged the audience to stay involved in the movement, saying: "When you march, things happen. We'll change the Congress in 2006 and take back the White House in 2008."

Bring Back Warren Harding
By FRANK RICH
THERE are no coincidences. On Monday, as L. Dennis Kozlowski was slapped with 8 to 25 years in jail for looting Tyco International of some $150 million, the feds were making their first arrest of a high-ranking member of the Bush administration. The official was David Safavian, the chief of White House federal procurement policy who once worked for Jack Abramoff, the sleazy Republican lobbyist whose disreputable client list, in another noncoincidence, included Tyco. While it's an accident of timing that Mr. Safavian was collared at his suburban Virginia home just as Mr. Kozlowski was sent to the slammer in New York, the two events could not better bracket a corrupt era worthy of the Gilded Age.

Ours will be remembered as the Enron era. Enron itself is a distant memory - much like all that circa 2000 talk of a smoothly efficient C.E.O. presidency led by a Harvard M.B.A. and a former chief executive of Halliburton. But even as American business has since been purged by prosecutions and reforms, the mutant Enron version of the C.E.O. culture still rules in Washington: uninhibited cronyism, cooked books, special-favors networks, the banishment of whistle-blowers and accountability. More than ideology, this ethos has sabotaged even the best of American intentions, whether in Iraq or New Orleans. Unchecked, it promises greater disasters to come.

As recently as 10 days ago, when he resigned before his arrest, Mr. Safavian was the man who set purchasing policy for the entire federal government, including that related to Hurricane Katrina relief. The White House might as well have appointed a contestant from "The Apprentice." Before entering public service, Mr. Safavian's main claim to fame was as a lobbyist whose clients included Indian gaming interests and thuggish African regimes. Mr. Safavian now faces charges of lying and obstructing the investigation of Mr. Abramoff, the Tom DeLay-Ralph Reed-Grover Norquist pal who is being investigated by more agencies than looked into 9/11. Mr. Abramoff's greasy K Street influence-peddling network makes the Warren Harding gang, which operated out of its own infamous "little green house on K Street," look like selfless stewards of the public good.

You know that the arrest of Mr. Safavian, one of three known Abramoff alumni to migrate into the administration, is the start of something big. Alberto Gonzales's Justice Department announced it only after Mr. Safavian had appeared in court and had been released without bail. The gambit was clearly intended to keep the story off television, and it worked.

It won't for long. The Enron odor emanating from Mr. Safavian is of a piece with the rest of the cronyism in the Katrina preparedness package. The handing off of FEMA from President Bush's 2000 campaign manager, Joe Allbaugh, to Mr. Allbaugh's even less qualified buddy, M

we stood on the main street today, our local anti war demo was cool. every major cross street (university, 8th, 16th, and 23rd and 39th) all had antiwar folks. there was @ 2 dozen at our intersection. lots of honking, very few fingers.

Dude, that was a low blow about Sally's daughter, okay?

And bedwetting, firestarting and cruelty to animals HAVE been cited as signs of a budding serial killer.


GravatarHey, speaking of Tyco...

'Timothy Flanigan
Deputy Attorney General (designate)


If Flanigan is confirmed as the No. 2 at Justice, it will be his second time as Gonzales’s deputy. Flanigan, 51, was White House deputy counsel from 2001 to 2002 when Gonzales was counsel to the president. He helped Gonzales and the administration craft major national security initiatives after 9/11. Flanigan, who has a bachelor’s degree from Brigham Young University and a law degree from the University of Virginia, currently serves as senior vice president and counsel of corporate and international law at Tyco International. “He has no prosecutorial experience,” says a Senate Democratic aide. But Flanigan’s stint at Tyco, a company that has recently faced serious ethics scandals, has prepared him well for managing a large agency focused on law enforcement. At Tyco since 2002, Flanigan has been responsible for overseeing new ethics compliance policies. And as the father of 14 children, Flanigan is familiar with the role of shepherd. '


That's only the beginning.

And like other sociopaths and psycopaths, his complete lack of empathy and his enjoyment of inflicting deliberate acts of cruelty on defenceless creatures only grew boring until he could find bigger targets - like mentally retarded prisoners, American soldiers in wars he started for no reason except his own entertainment and most recently poor African American women and children and elderly people in nursing homes who died needlessly in a natural disaster.

Now Bush is effectively putting a firecracker up the ass of the middle class and enjoying watching it blow up and destroy their childrens' future.

He is a sick, sick man.

GravatarWow, Chicago Dyke--look at all those comments on your post at Kos. You hit a nerve--apparently quite a few readers over there aren't too keen on the proferred notion that some people shouldn't be allowed at a rally in order to enhance its "effectiveness."

Count me as one of those who not only like the so-called "freaks," but understand that they are necessary.

As Molly Ivins puts it:

"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was."

it was, and i suffered greatly for it. but 'twas my fault.

In reference to the posts below about monks getting attacked by Vikings -- I have always thouhgt that there is something archetypal about monks grabbing the church's valuables and running off to escape the fury of the Norsemen -- believe it or not, one of the reasons for celibacy is that it makes it easier to rely on non-violent resistance (to not resort to violence when spouse or children are threatened requires unnatural heroism) -- AND why were you even reading that troll, much less feeding him? If you want to suffer like that, go read Ayn Rand!

Gravatari don't know how long they can keep getting away with it

Only until the corporate media stops fluffing them, or they get so sloppy that they not only neglect to cover their tracks, they neglect to payoff/frighten the people in the criminal justice system who can take them down.

The corporate media love the GOP. They not only got lovely corporate tax cuts and other breaks, but also the gutting of the FCC's anti-trust regulations.

This is why growing our own media is so critical to America's survival.

GravatarHe also failed to realize that you can support the mission and not support the troops.

i know one thing, i don't support fuck'n or smoke'n PUC's. but i generally see that as a gross failure of leadership, brought about by the torture policy memos.

GravatarWell, it's pretty much turned into a 'rain event' here. So everbody relax if you were uptight about it all. Right before I went to sleep this morning the power lines were apparently knocked off-line but the generator immediately kicked in and when I woke up a little while ago, it was still running. I've been wanting the rain for months now and this is perfect. Now I don't have to stand out in the yard anymore this year and water with a water hose.

GravatarGlad you're OK, Incog.


GravatarSpeaking of the anti-war rally:

George Galloway speaks.

Here's a partial transcript (done on the fly, so treat this as a rush transcript):

There is an absolute need for your country and my country to stand shoulder to shoulder against the war criminals Tony Blair and George W. Bush, and to thus demonstrate to the people of the world and particularly the people of the occupied world that these criminals are not acting in our name.

This is not any clash of civilizations. This is not a war between the people of the West and the people of the East. This is not a war between the religions of Christianity and Islam.

George Bush doesn't represent any civilization. George Bush and Tony Blair certainly don't represent Jesus Christ and the great religion of Christianity. Christianity believes in the prophets, peace be upon them. Tony Blair and George Bush believe in profits and how to get a piece of them. Mammon, that's what they worship.

None of us is the enemy of the soldiers in the British and American forces. We love our troops. In fact, we love our troops so much we want to bring them home before any more of them are killed, before any more of them are maimed.

Our soldiers, conscripted by unemployment and poor prospects and hopelessness, are our sons and daughters. It's George Bush, who's sending them to be killed on a pack of lies, who hates our troops.

Gravatar you were in my prayers

Thank you, Prior! It was a perfect day for marching, cool and overcast.


GravatarI look at Bush and there is no there there. Without Karl Rove to tell him what to do, he would be nothing. Beyond his own selfish needs, he stands for nothing, believes in nothing, and cares about nothing. All is artifice. If Karl gets taken out by the Plame affair or some other legal entanglement, the power vacuum in the White House will resemble the giant black hole at the center of our galaxy.

I suggested in a previous thread that under such circumstances, that I could see him actually committing suicide. Unlike previous instances where he got in trouble and simply bailed out (with help, usually from Daddy's friends) I don't think that's an option this time. Resigning and thus in effect admitting he's a failure (particularly to his father) would simply be too humiliating for the arrogant prick. On the other hand, actually being president (as opposed to just pretending to be one) is way beyond his capabilities. He's more in over his head than Brownie ever was. With that, his situation may become untenable. At the very minimum, I would expect to see obvious signs of emotional instability. It will be interesting to see how media suckups like Wolf Blitzer will try to spin them away.

GravatarDaily Kos declares "Bush is selling Katrina victims into sex slavery"

Source

"On Wedneday, Bush issued a waiver exempting the Saudis from financial penalties associated with the child sex trade, prostitution, etc.

There are many missing children in the wake of Katrina.

After the tsunami there was great concern that many of the children left without families due to that disaster had disappeared into Asian, Middle Eastern sex trade rings.

I know there must be an easy explanation why Bush did what he did yesterday. But I'm sure it must have something to do with oil, but in Bushworld we can't take anything for granted, can we?
"

Yeah.. this site is pretty much the core of the party, and they think Bush is selling Katrina victims to the Saudis

GravatarAt least 100,000 demonstrators jammed the streets of Washington to protest both the war and globalism. Thousands of other pacifists turned out in London, San Francisco and Los Angeles. It will take a popular movement to stop this war, declared Cindy Sheehan. We are going to be the counterweight to this criminal government, which is out of control.

By the end of the afternoon march organizers estimated that there were 300,000 demonstrators.

"BUSH, CATEGORY 5 CATASTROPHE". Small groups of up to 3,000 people demonstrated in front of the World Bank protesting the abolition of import duties, saying it is the ruin of fragile econonmies.

A cruel wind is blowing across America, from Texas to Montana, right through the heart of our country, said US Representative Cynthia McKinney (Dem).

Besides pacifists and social forum demonstators, the march on Washington attracted anarchists, communists and ecology activists, who called for the lifting of the embargo on Cuba and shouted their solidarity with Hugo Chavez.

In London, 10,000 Stop the War demonstrators marched. There were no incidents.

In Paris, 120 ANSWER members marches in the Place de la Concorde.


GravatarRichard--Bush wants to kill everyone else, not himself. He's the universe to himself. Nothing else matters.


GravatarHere's some actual research, from a study of over 800 firesetters:

Title: ENURESIS, FIRESETTING, AND CRUELTY TO ANIMALS: DOES THE EGO TRIAD SHOW PREDICTIVE VALIDITY? , By: Slavkin, Michael Lawrence, Adolescence, 0001-8449, September 1, 2001, Vol. 36, Issue 143

The relevant results: No relationship was found between firesetting recidivism and the presence of enuresis, X2 (1) = .16, p = .82. However, juveniles who were identified as being cruel to animals were more likely than those who were not cruel to animals to engage in recidivistic firesetting, X2 (1) = 25.88, p = .001. When the ego triad was assessed using an analysis of variance (the presence of enuresis and cruelty to animals as relating to recidivistic behaviors), the two-way interaction was not statistically significant, F = 1.69, df = 1, p = .23. Interestingly, the level of enuresis in the firesetters was significantly higher than in a normative sample of juveniles, t = 6.41, p = .02 (Health Examination Survey Cycle III, 1978 ).

And some discussion: The hypothesis tested in this study was that the presence of enuresis and cruelty to animals in juvenile firesetters would be significantly related to recidivistic firesetting. This hypothesis emerged from Yarnell's belief that there is an ego triad among juvenile firesetters, which links the occurrence of enuresis, cruelty to animals and others, and firesetting in youth.

No differences were found in firesetting recidivism based on the presence of enuresis. However, juveniles who were identified as being cruel to animals were more likely than those who were not cruel to animals to engage in recidivistic firesetting behaviors. Further, the incidence of enuresis was elevated in the present sample when compared with a normative sample.

Although cruelty to animals seems to hold potential as a predictor of recidivistic firesetting, it is most likely an externalizing behavior that correlates highly with delinquency. Justice, Justice, and Kraft (1974) have asserted that the ego triad largely occurs simultaneously with factors that may be better predictors of violent adult behaviors.

While enuresis may not be an indicator of recidivistic firesetting, it would appear to be an effective marker of the problematic behaviors that are comorbid with firesetting in juveniles. In addition, the significant difference in enuresis between a normative population and the present sample is noteworthy.

I am sick to fucking death of being told that those of us who want peace and justice "don't support the troops." It's an empty, meaningless nothing - because we care about people, we want the killing and the maiming to end.

GravatarDid you know that your home owner's insurance might rise, even if you don't live in TX or LA?

of course it will. because large corporations never suffer for screwing people over. just like large tort rewards--they just raise prices to cover it.

punitive damages are supposed to be punitive and they are supposed to dissuade people from doing bad things. true tort reform would but caps on the ability of a mal-doer to raise rates to cover its losses.

and insurance companies are hardly insurance.

That doesn't even make sense. Not that it's surprising. Yes, trollboy, that means that although there may be a medical condition or physiological issue that contributes to the behavior, there is in any case something more going on. So what's your point exactly? Aside from wasting my time.

BTW, ruleout criteria for medical conditions are applicable to most mental disorders. Either you're thick as some of the undergrads I've known or you're just being deliberately obtuse, troll strategy #7.

D'oh!


GravatarC-Span showing the anti-war demonstration.

I guess that means the rest of the media can milk the Rita story for all the profits they can, while not displeasing the ruler, Bushboy, and incurring his awful wrath!


GravatarEli--yes, but it's all about the red tank top.


GravatarBut we do believe in lawyers.
Lawyers for what Sallyh? Maybe George Bush believes in lawyers also? What exactly is your lawyer going to do Sallyh?


GravatarOh, okay, she's a Crusading Female Reporter.

*Much* more plausible.


Gravatar Hey, my aunt & uncle just got power back in Houston a few minutes ago. Good news there at least.

woohoo! this is how big houston is: i live within the unicorporated area of houston (thus i cannot vote for mayor) and we lost power for a total of 25 minutes last night. someone who lives closer to downtown didn't lose power until this afternoon. strange.

that didn't really show the size of houston...

um, lets say that my office building downtown lost windows and at my house, we didn't even have a broken branch. (though my neighbors lost one).

GravatarHey, does anyone know what happened to Mellish? He wasn't in NOLA, was he?


GravatarTena--I'm guessing he doesn't have computer access. I expect that he will be hospitalized for nearly a week.


GravatarThat is some world-class acting going on there in the control room...


GravatarWhy is this troll obssessed with Sallyh?

It's disturbing.


GravatarBecause when the little Filipino girl was up there yelling at no one, there was maybe 30 or 40 people on the grounds around the stage. It was laughable.


GravatarMarcia,

Since you have the Keith Olbermann chia pet that means you don't need the real thing, right? (asking hopefully)

Oh, yeah. Crow's uberkewl.


GravatarOh no! The nanobots are escaping!

Gravatar"Can't decide on a persona, trollboy? May I direct you further to criterion D: The behavior is not due exclusively to the direct physiological effect of a substance (e.g., a diuretic) or a general medical condition (e.g., diabetes, spina bifida, a seizure disorder)."

I'm not a troll boy or a troll old man but I don't believe everything I read either--not even in the DSM. You should read what it said in the DSM I. Just because no medical condition has been identified doesn't mean that something isn't medical or physiological. Most medical conditions have not as yet been identified. Medical claims do seem to change. Medicine often blames things exclusively on the psychological. Not too many years ago schizophrenia was blamed on the mothers.

GravatarAny programing wonks here with text and IE experience? Seems that we need to create some bots to answer the trolls.

GravatarYes, I think Malkin was there, but the little girl I'm referring to was one of the loud speakers.

GravatarPrior,

Are you pulling my leg about the generator?

I haven't read The Rebirth of Witchcraft by Doreen Valiente, but she's a grand old lady of the early (sixties and seventies) Wiccan revival. Hung around with Gerald Gardner, etc.

Woohoo. Starhawke and Z. Budapest are my favorites. The Holy Book of Women's Mysteriessaved my sanity on a camping trip to hell.


GravatarTorture is terribly evil -- you will alomst certinaly get information -- but it is typically whatever the victim thinks you want to hear so you will stop

We have resorted to it in every war with "cruel necessity" being the rationalization

We have never had to stop it because of a shortage of peopel willing to do it

Violence degrades everyone it touches -- we all become its victims


GravatarIt was laughable.



No, the way the trolls are trying to downplay the demonstration is pretty laughable.

Pathetic, really.

Like Bush - "we don't want it to be that way, so we say it wasn't that way."


GravatarSo the SciFi "original" feature looks like merely a geeky twist on the good old killer bees tale.


GravatarI apologize to the room for sneaking scraps of information to trollboy under the table. Based on his fairly uninformed and hostile reaction to research-validated facts and long-established diagnostic criteria, I think I will just congratulate him on his upcoming nuptials with Ms. Holmes and leave it at that.

Supporters of Bush's policy in Iraq assembled in smaller numbers to get their voice heard in the day's anti-war din. About 150 of them rallied at the U.S. Navy Memorial.

GravatarHere's my latest theory: We should have let Clinton be impeached and convicted.

Consider this: Gore would have been president, and could have perhaps successfully escaped the tarnish. He might not have had to nominate the soulless scum Lieberman as his VP. And as the incumbent, he might have scraped enough votes to have made the Supreme Court coup impossible. Plus, the Republicans would have looked scummy.

Think about it.

GravatarThere's a few more Danica here. Just thought I'd make it easy with a couple direct links.

In case that's not enough, here's some of her interview:

Fine, if I must: What can a guy do to win you over?
I love surprises. So, champagne and strawberries, all that pampering, romantic stuff. Guys ought to know how to pamper their women.

What about the delicate maneuver of a man buying you lingerie?
I’m not sure I’ve ever had a guy buy me lingerie when we weren’t at the store together trying stuff on.

You mean you don’t make the guy wait outside on the pink ottoman?
Well, I haven’t had sex in the changing room, but I’ve had the guy come with me while I tried stuff on.

Don’t men see lingerie as just pretty Christmas wrapping?
With the guy I’m with now, the goal is: “How fast can we get that off?”

Around the house, are you carefree or careful?
If it’s just me and my boyfriend, then anything goes. I’m not shy about walking around with nothing on. There’s nothing unclassy about being naked, if it’s appropriate.

Do you consider yourself a serial monogamist, or do you dig a tryst?
I am definitely a serial monogamist. I can count on one hand the number of guys I’ve been with. For whatever reason, I’m just more private. It takes longer to get on the inside.

Do you get a complex living in L.A., being surrounded by all the store-bought boobs?
If I want bigger breasts, that’s what the Wonderbra is for. But my boyfriend, luckily, is an ass man.

And you didn’t even know that going in.
Look, if a guy really wants big, big breasts, I’m not the one. I’m more of the slim, small-framed person.

And if he wants love and devotion?
If he wants love and devotion, look no further.

GravatarYanno, I don't really give a rat's ass who organized the marches and rallies today. I also don't care that some of the speakers at the various venues talked about the Palestinian question, or Leonard Pelletier, or Mumma.

What I do care about is that upwards of a quarter of a million Americans all over the country got off their asses and actually showed their disgust for the war in Iraq.

We went to St. Lucia on our honeymoon. It was before St. Lucia had any big resorts besides one that was on the other end of the island.

A few weekends ago, I was out drinking downtown with some old friends. When the bar closed, we walked back to the sidestreet where I had parked. On the way out, we went by a completely naked college-aged girl standing in somebody's front yard, talking on her cell phone and holding her shoes in the other hand.

Her boyfriend was standing in the doorway, probably worried about her phone minutes or something.

lots of people. lots of retail. lots of fried food (Olaf had mutton stew, NM Red had fried bread). Most of the competitions were long since past...they were showing alpacas, laamas, and such...there was a western pleasure competition for arabians...but the cattle, and the hogs, wnd the fowl were all already gone back to the farm or into the pot...
a remarkable potpouri of faces, and costumes, and sights, sounds and smells...watched some dancing at the Native center. the colors and the movement and the sounds of the singers and the drums made me wish, as i whispered to my comanions, that i was in about hour two or three of a good acid trip...it was the sort of composition that looked, from a ceertain angle, as if someone had animated colorful flowers and huge butterflys and put some of them in dignified-looking pillbox hats and set them all a'spinning to wonderfuly complex, atavistic rhythms...
and i was straight...


missed you...jane's a gas--as you might have guessed--and red's funny, lovely, and widely travelld and read...we had a fun time...got in a bit before 11 am, left about 3:30... i'd say a satisfactory--nay, superlative--time was had by all...
next year we'll do it a week earlier...jane got her stock of Lotaburgers, finally...

i was serious if you're passin thru next weekend, lemme know...we'll imbibe something...

GravatarNight, Moonbats. America's poets stood up Laura Bush this weekend, but there was poetry in the streets:

It's bullshit.
Get off it.
This war is for profit.
It's bullshit.
Get off it.
Violence and occupation cannot lead to liberation.
Tha'ts bullshit.
Get off it.
This war is for profit.

Thanks.

I sure I wish I could have. Next year - I'll just make that happen. A week earlier would be great. I could come down, go the fair, come back up here for another week or so. It would be easy - that early I know I can get someone to look after the cat, so I'm not driving around with him in the car, or putting him in strange rooms and shit. He's young still and not exactly a sedate creature.


GravatarYeah, us south-western feminists would have just said, "Son, did you see those boobs?"

hahahaha! see, that's the deal with those puritan-types. my mother is great, but a bit puritanical. totally didn't want us looking at women as sexual objects. which is cool.

GravatarThe trolls aren't bad enough. Now we have to have Clinton-bashing!

Hey Ted, your little friend gordon was guilty of racial sterotyping the other night, an Asian woman, really racist, really vulgar. But I forget.

GravatarIf you offered me the choice between jerky and steak, or between having a finger cut off, and having two fingers cut off, I'd pick the steak and the one finger.

The fact that Clinton is better than Bush really does not answer why Clinton was supposedly excessively successful. Since Bush is the worst president ever, Warren G. Harding would be a more able replacement. This does not, however, explain any of Harding's exceptional qualities.

I just do not understand how they convinced the Lemmings to be stand-ins for Republicans. Amazing feat of animal training.


GravatarWhen it was still new, I found The Joy of Sex at a bookstore--several copies just sitting there within easy reach of my little hands.

when i was 14-17, i was astounded that the joy of sex said that many adolescent boys liked to go in the woods and masturbate together. or maybe it was everything you wanted to know about sex.

but that never happened for me. not that it would have been bad if it had, because the book assured me that was perfectly normal, but that never happened. and there were even woods where i grew up.


GravatarWell, "excessively successful" is definitely a stretch.

He was able to get elected President *twice* without the aid of either the Supreme Court or Diebold- that's gotta count for *something*.


GravatarActually, looks like its http://www.afterdowningstreet.org , not democrats.com.


GravatarClinton at the very least left this country with a surplus.

I was not particularly fond of him because he was such a centrist, and he was no Wellstone.

On the other hand, maybe we need to have a leader who goes with the average rather than the median. Hell, I don't know.

I DO know that Bush (and Raygun, and Nixon and Bush the Elder) has (have) been catastrophic for this country.

I got pissed at Clinton for many things - but when I see what the BFEE have done, he's a fucking saint by comparison.

And, the Repugs showed their colors by their attempt at impeachment over his sex life. Yeah, I was imcredibkly pissed at him for having done that becxause the stupid fuck KNEW it was exactly what they were looking for to b ribng himn down with, but he did it anyway.

BUT - I could have lived my entire life without hearing about the cigar incident, and, frankly, in a b etter age, that sort of detail would never have b een foisted on the US public.

That was much, much more shameful than whatever Clinton did. And so incredibly hypocritical that it still rankles.

GravatarHe was able to get elected President *twice* without the aid of either the Supreme Court or Diebold- that's gotta count for *something*.

He also had a legitimate third party right-leaning candidate in both races against him.


GravatarI like that Clark met with Sheehan and the Congressional Black Caucus and spoke straight to them about what he thinks the ant-war movement should call for.

I also like that Kerry reminded students at Brown that environmental policies were birthed by a million people in the streets.


GravatarOlaf and Seebach:

The right wing hates any Democrat. Period. Clinton drew their especial ire because he tried to be nice to them, something they viewed as a sign of weakness -- which gave them another reason to hate him.

Now, somebody like Howard Dean, they'd leave alone after he made it perfectly fucking clear that not only was he not going to cave to them, he was either going to ignore them or give them a knuckles sandwich, whichever would hurt them the most. (This is one reason why the Republicans working for Bush in Florida were so glad that Kerry beat out Dean for the nomination.)

By the way:

CNN: Anti-War Rally "Huge"


GravatarStill not an answer.

Why don't you like Clinton?


GravatarHe was able to get elected President *twice* without the aid of either the Supreme Court or Diebold- that's gotta count for *something*.

Well, technically the first time he owed his success to Ross Perot, taking a big chunk out of Bush's base. And the second time he was running against Bob Dole. Bob DOLE for crying out loud.

But Clinton was to the right of Jimmy Carter. The DLC's poster child. Surely this is obvious.

If our criterion for 2006 and 2008 is "America, do better. Stop smashing yourself in the head with a hammer" how exactly are we going to clean up the messes Bush has made?

bj-1000 and ted7000 are same person, same person who wrote the book, the
book that apparently won't sell. No one will buy it, and the author is
desperately spamming usenet to try to get some sales.

The author has even gone so far as to write his own reviews at Amazon.
Reviews that contain the same spelling and typographical errors in bj's
spam posts here.

The average person sees these posts and concludes the spammer is a
moron, therefore not credible, and the book is probably a waste of time
and money. In fact, we see NO ONE else recommending this book. It
apparently has sold NO copies. Either that or the people who bought it
are too embarrassed to admit they wasted money on it.

Go away spammer. You've needlessly murdered trees in publishing a book
no one wants to buy. Now you are sending poor innocent electrons to
their deaths in your spam posts.


Poor Ted, he's given up at Amazon. It's the judgment of your sacred marketplace. Your ideas are rejected and your life's work is thrown on the ash heap of hackery.

bJ,

If Jesus Christ himself employed your methods to spread the word,
there would be no Christianity. If you want to sell your book, go to
a PR firm, pay them and then you just stand by and let the
professionals do it. You are screwing it up and alienating potential
customers. If you are this clueless about sales (showing you have no
understanding of human nature), one has to imagine you are also
equally clueless in the realm of marriage relationships. It is not
wise to take advice from fools. That is why no one wants to hear what
you have to say.

saying that he didn't fuck everything up isn't really bitching, but since you asked:

he allowed an enormous ammount of media consolidation.

he continued and extended the "war on drugs".


GravatarAfter all this time, you're still here doing that.

No. I hold Nader responsible. I'm merely pointing out a flaw in your logic.

I would say Clinton's flaw was shifting the Democratic party to the right. Which doesn't look to be rectified anytime soon.


GravatarHe also didn't do anything meaningful about our oil dependence or global warming.


GravatarHe also had a legitimate third party right-leaning candidate in both races against him.

Actually, Clinton probably would have done better in both 1992 and 1996 if there weren't any third-party candidates.

Exit polling showed clearly that Perot didn't affect the outcome of the race, but the "Clinton only won because of Perot" myth is beloved by both Republicans and certain lefties. Here's an excerpt:

----------

Let’s start with some actual data. If Perot hadn’t been in the 92 race, would Bush the elder have beaten Clinton? The exit polling was abundantly clear, and it was widely reported. On November 8, 1992—five days after the election—E. J. Dionne penned a first report in the Post. Headline: “Perot Seen Not Affecting Vote Outcome:”

DIONNE (11/8/92): Ross Perot's presence on the 1992 presidential ballot did not change the outcome of the election, according to an analysis of the second choices of Perot supporters.

The analysis, based on exit polls conducted by Voter Research & Surveys (VRS) for the major news organizations, indicated that in Perot's absence, only Ohio would have have shifted from the Clinton column to the Bush column. This would still have left Clinton with a healthy 349-to-189 majority in the electoral college.

And even in Ohio, the hypothetical Bush "margin" without Perot in the race was so small that given the normal margin of error in polls, the state still might have stuck with Clinton absent the Texas billionaire.


The VRS polled more than 15,000 voters. On November 12, Dionne provided more details about Perot voters:

DIONNE (11/12/92): In House races, Perot voters split down the middle: 51 percent said they backed Republicans, 49 percent backed Democrats. In the presidential contest, 38 percent of Perot supporters said they would have supported Clinton if Perot had not been on the ballot and 37 percent said they would have supported Bush.
An additional 6 percent of Perot voters said they would have sought another third-party candidate, while 14 percent said they would not have voted if Perot had not run.


We all know exit polls are imperfect. But these are the actual available data about the preferences of Perot voters. Nor was this exit poll kept secret. One day after the election, the AP sent the news far and wide. (Headline: “Perot's Voters Would Have Split In a Two-Way Race”):

ASSOCIATED PRESS (11/4/92): Exit polls suggest Ross Perot hurt George Bush and Bill Clinton about equally.
The Voter Research and Surveys poll, a joint project of the four major television networks, found 38 percent of Perot voters would have voted for Clinton and 37 percent would have voted for Bush if Perot had not been on the ballot. Fifteen percent said they would not have voted, and 6 percent listed other candidates.


GravatarI would say Clinton's flaw was shifting the Democratic party to the right.

How did he do that?


Gravatarsaying that he didn't fuck everything up isn't really bitching, but since you asked:

he destroyed afdc.

he allowed an enormous ammount of media consolidation.

he continued and extended the "war on drugs".
Olaf glad and big


Yep. Plus, the four word idiocy:

Don't ask, don't tell.


Gravatar8.4% of the vote makes you a "legitimate" candidate?


GravatarHe also didn't do anything meaningful about our oil dependence or global warming.

Tell me what he did do.

And then tell me how he could have successfully achieved more.

I'll be waiting.


Gravatar8.4% of the vote makes you a "legitimate" candidate?

If the winner of the election doesn't get a majority, it surely does.

I of course meant "legitimate" in terms of impact. Every candidate is legitimate.


GravatarPerot Seen Not Affecting Vote Outcome

I stand corrected, then.


GravatarI'll be waiting.

And no one will be caring.


GravatarYep. Plus, the four word idiocy:

Don't ask, don't tell.


Idiocy?

You expected one man to change a lifetime of military prejudice (despite the fact that gays are alive and well there)?


GravatarAnd no one will be caring.

I sure as hell don't care, because you can't back up anything you say.

As my dear late mother used to say, "Use it in good health."

Lawsuits irritate--but tar and feathers satisfy.

Well, yes. I mean, one man integrated blacks and whites in the military.

And Clinton did claim that he would end the military's ban on gays.

So, yes, I did expect it, and Clinton failed.


GravatarClinton also signed orders closing wilderness areas to roads, expanded the number of protected National Heritage sites, got us in and out of Kosova without a casualty --

But most of all it usually felt like he actually wanted to please Americans. He really seemed to give a shit about how we felt about what he was doing.

George W Bush: "Why would I care what you think?"


GravatarSo, yes, I did expect it

Why? Did Clinton try to do that?

If it had been up to him alone, would it have happened?

I don't understand your anger.

You haven't added any of substance to the conversation.

Say something!


GravatarI'm not angry.

And I think Clinton was a great president. But he did fail in that regard.

You know, this is how people argue who do not have the intelligence to debate honestly, with facts. It is also lazy.

You got a point to make? Make it. Leave the bullshit at home. Don;t bring adolescent - and utterly pointless! - insults to an adult discussion.

GravatarBut he did fail in that regard.

Was he on your side? Yes.

Could he have changed the minds of ignorant people singlehandedly?

Doubtful, dearest.


GravatarClinton, like most presidents, did some things right and some things wrong (my personal favorite among the latter being NAFTA and failing to make good on his pledge to raise or eliminate the cap on earnings subject to FICA). That said, he was working against a horrifically hostile Congress and a corporate-dominated whore press. On the whole, I would say that Clinton did better than most others who have held the office (with a few notable exceptions) and amazingly well given the political situation. I also wish Clinton had kept his winkie in his pants--he must have been influenced by the ghost of Warren Harding who was caught by his wife bonking his secretary in an Oval Office closet.

Dubya has broken the mold of the office he desecrates: he hasn't got one thing right yet. Not one. Even Millard Fillmore and James Buchanan weren't that bad.

You have GOT to be kidding.

The person I was referring to essentially posts like this:

"What the hell do you know?

Asshole."

Every time.

Save your sanctimony, mkay?

I asked you to back up your assertions, and you resorted to ad hominems.

Sad.


GravatarHere is the post that drove Sallyh to gode, threaten and work the board into lawsuits and supposedly seek my IP address.........Sallyh, bedwetting has nothing to do with psychology or sociology. It's physiological. Talk about cruel. No wonder your daughter is so screwed up.
Somebody tell this woman to chill. I restate in other words. If Sallyh explains human behavior, the behavior of any human including George Bush, in terms of these crude, unscientific, generalizations, she has no hope of ever understanding her daughters problems. If you have my IP address, then prove it and post my hometown and state. You are digging yourself a bigger and bigger hole. Stalking is not justified by the moral equivalent of saying 'your momma'. Stop it.


GravatarWas he on your side? Yes.

Could he have changed the minds of ignorant people singlehandedly?

Doubtful, dearest.


In this regard, he really was not on my side.

And I never expected him to change people's minds. I did expect him to do what he could. I. e. an executive order permitting gays to serve in the military.

I was trying to think of any great pieces of legislation that future generations will remember Bush for...

OMG. I can't even believe you would want that, given what we know about stuff that happens in the military among the unenlightened.

Wow.


GravatarSallyh is the most uncouth person on this board in handling 'trolls.' Could you ever in a million years see someone like Phila, who never loses his good humor, handle a troll like this. You people have some serious problems, you better unplug from politics for awhile. It would also be advisable not to seek advise about personal problems on a political and very public website.


Gravatarjon, you're slime.

Dear, leave yours at home, and I will, too.

There's enough nastiness (rather than reasoned arguments) around as it is.

And saying, well, She/He said this to me, called Me this/that/or the other is no excuse. If you want higher discourse, then don't get down in what you perceive to the gutter of someone who argues against you unfairly.

This is pretty basic, eh?

GravatarJon, you're an ass. Sallyh is one of the classiest and most tolerant people on this board. If you've pissed her off you've clearly crossed a line.
