Gravatarfrist?


GravatarFaced with the biggest crisis of his political life, President Bush has hit the bottle again, The National Enquirer can reveal.

Bush, who said he quit drinking the morning after his 40th birthday, has started boozing amid the Katrina catastrophe.

[As the friend who sent this to me has pointed out to those like me who doubt the source, the Enquirer also broke the Lewinsky story. ]


Gravataraha!


GravatarWhen will the ugliness commence?


GravatarBush, who said he quit drinking the morning after his 40th birthday, has started boozing amid the Katrina catastrophe.

I don't buy it.

He's been drinking longer than that.


GravatarWhat was/is Bush's booze of choice, anyway?


GravatarBusch?


GravatarWow. Percaley goodness.

Crisp. Cool. Troll-free.


GravatarFreshly-pressed, right on time...


GravatarAll aboard!


GravatarWhat's the difference between an enzyme and a hormone?



You can't hear an enzyme.


Math, science and sex. Yesssss...


Gravatar[As the friend who sent this to me has pointed out to those like me who doubt the source, the Enquirer also broke the Lewinsky story. ]

The Rush Limbaugh/oxycontin story too.


GravatarHello friends. What's going on?


Gravataroh yeah? well, this king says, you already used that slogan!!!


GravatarHave all the TX/LA scatatonians checked in?


GravatarDear Leader's thought for the day is about the rumors that he is drinking again, click on homepage.


GravatarThey're all on prescription uppers and sleeping pills and all kinds of crap. Pour booze on top - oy.


Gravatarhad a good time at the nm state fair today with woody guthrie's guitar, gwpda, and nm red. then i went and donated $30 to the nm racing commission.
Olaf glad and big


Me too, me too! Not the $30 but I did buy a really really beautiful new pony for Holden - it's white and its head bounces up and down and is perfect for his rear window. And I bought watertiger an Arizona snowman, and we saw the kuhlest llama with a sort poodle cut who was actually piebald.... And Woody and NM Red were there and we all had lots of pie and lamb stew and frybread and roasted corn on a stick and saw many many beautiful and strange things.

And then, as I was coming home, who do I run across but renato at the big time Phoenix demonstration where much shaking and honking and aspersions were cast and honked....

Hurrah!

John E. Bush - alcohol


Gravatarheh, i'm drinking again, and i need ta pee! bbl!


GravatarWill a drunken Bush have a beer hall putsch?


GravatarMan, I didn't realize that the Enquirer broke those stories. All week I've just been sort of chuckling about the people in checkout lines seeing the story about Bush's drinking, but I'm starting to believe it now.


GravatarI keep discovering bottles of bourbon in my house.

Need to have company over more often...


Gravataruh, hey all. I've been an eschaton visitor for almost 3 years now but lately (posasibly due to his schedule) the site has been mostly "open threads". While we all know that Atrios can't always be posting items of interest, aren't there others who can at least post some pieces that could be discussed/acted on/disseminated and otherwise be useful besides the "frist" posts?

sure, there is always kos but combined with kos, we could get som serious action and critical mass on very important items...

just sayin'



fuck bush


Gravatar What's the difference between an enzyme and a hormone?

How do you make a hormone?

Step on her toe.


GravatarWhy doesn't every story about Frist mention how his family business paid $1.7 BILLION in fines for stealing from the US government?

It's YORE MONEY people!!


GravatarDavid Keith's nanobots are eating Seattle, but Winnie from The Wonder Years will save the day!

Ask a stupid question...

Well, I can inform you all that SF's demonstration was like pretty much every SF demonstration. Nice day for it, though.


GravatarHello friends. What's going on?

Cheney survived surgery, but many are hoping for an infection by a superbug.


GravatarI don't buy it.

He's been drinking longer than that.


at least since the election.

one things for sure, he was definitely on some serious meds. sort of like a puppet on a string.


GravatarSo, did the last thread clarify Bush wetting the bed or not?

Maybe that's why he needs permission from Condi to go...


Gravatarah, I think most of us are coming down off of all the Rita talk.


GravatarSay...

When's the "Missing White Woman Show" coming on? All I'm gettin is hurricane reruns.

GravatarWhile we all know that Atrios can't always be posting items of interest, aren't there others who can at least post some pieces that could be discussed/acted on/disseminated and otherwise be useful besides the "frist" posts?

It doesn't seem likely, now does it?


GravatarDoes anybody know where one can find Friday's Krugman?

I miss him.


GravatarHow do you make a hormone?

Step on her toe.


Now see, I always heard the answer to that one was "don't pay her".


GravatarDid Arthur get anything at the fair?


GravatarDartanyon - I think Neil is addicted to his own penis as well. Why do you think business partners decided the most effective way to manipulate him was by providing him with prostitutes?

While the Washington elite only provide Guitar George with a steady stream of presstitutes.


GravatarGWPDA, Mrs DWD and I have resolved to return to the New Mexico State Fair and stay long enough for the Balloon Fiesta as soon as I retire and get that nasty school business out of the way.

I am glad you had a good time. When I went several years ago, I did as well.


GravatarThey're shooting missiles at the nanoclouds???


Gravataranother open thread????


GravatarNow see, I always heard the answer to that one was "don't pay her".

The last time I used that one, I was derided for being sexist. No one seems to mind this variant, though.

People are strange.

Oh, I see the Pres at the back
As a matter of fact his eyes are red as the sun
And Laura in the corner let no one ignore her
'Cause she thinks she's the passionate one

Oh Yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening
And NotJenna was soothing, and they all started grooving
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
And then Rove at the back said
Everyone attack and it turned into a beer hall putsch
And then Jeb in the corner said
Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a beer hall putsch

Beer hall putsch...


GravatarGWPDA,

I humbly request an invitation to join next year's gathering at the NM State Fair.

I am quiet, reasonably well-behaved, and love New Mexico.

Respectfully,

Diane


Gravatararen't there others who can at least post some pieces that could be discussed/acted on/disseminated and otherwise be useful besides the "frist" posts?

Seems to me like there's an awful lot of interesting links that get posted in the comments...


Gravatar Did Arthur get anything at the fair?

GravatarWow, Winnie wants to be a *real* reporter!


GravatarHow does a Frenchman hold his liquor?

Btw, thanks doc, it was an oldie but a goodie. LOL.


GravatarJack -

the open threads hit every two hours or so, whether Atrios is here or not. There have been plenty of good posts here of late, especially on the "burgeoning" (if by burgeoning you mean a full have dozen people are paying attention) Frist scandal.

I don't recall there ever being too many lengthy, policy oriented posts here like you get on Kos; some of the more regular viewers may have a better memory than me.

Down in the lower thread, Woody was talking about next year and I already have it on the calendar.

It'll be perfect - I can just come down and go the fair - leave the cat here. Come back up here for another week or so.

Lol Actually, I was wondering more about political connections or if BYU has some remarkable pre-law program.


Gravatari don't see why peope deride open threads.

i check buzzflash and rawstory every day. when i'm done reading there i come over here. almost always atrios has an interesting twist, something new, or a different way of looking at it. hell, he hardly ever provides commentary, but he links to another blog or provides an angle you don't get from the MSM.

i like the comments here, even the frivolous ones, it builds a camaraderie. that's a valuable thing in such troubling times.

best blog on the net in my opinion.

GravatarFrom the Department of Death Ain't What It Used To Be:


Reported as Dead, Suspect in '64 Killings Turns Up Alive

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: September 25, 2005
http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/2...al/ 25civil.html

ROXIE, Miss., Sept. 24 (AP) - During a trip here last July to make a documentary on the 1964 killings of his brother and another black man, Thomas Moore stopped at a gas station outside of this town in southwestern Mississippi for a sandwich.

At the store, Mr. Moore lamented to a local man that one of the prime suspects in the killings had died, and the listener asked which one. "James Ford Seale," Mr. Moore replied. The newspapers had said so. Mr. Seale's own son had confirmed it.

"He ain't dead," the man said. "I'll show you where he lives."

Mr. Moore and a filmmaker, David Ridgen, drove to a house where an old man lounged outside.

"James Ford Seale!" Mr. Moore called from the road. "Why don't you come out and talk to me?"

The man scurried into a motor home - but not before Mr. Ridgen could get a good shot of him. James Ford Seale was alive.

Mr. Moore's brother, Charles Eddie Moore, and Henry Hezekiah Dee were killed in May 1964, a month before the more prominent killings of three civil rights workers in Philadelphia, Miss. According to federal reports, Mr. Moore and Mr. Dee, both 19, were hitchhiking outside nearby Meadville when a Klansman in a Volkswagen picked them up.

Searchers combing the woods and swamps for the civil rights workers found part of a black man's body in the Mississippi River near Tallulah, La. Federal officials converged on the area, and the partial remains of a second man were found the next day.

The bodies were identified as those of Mr. Moore, who was home from Alcorn A&M, and Mr. Dee, who worked at a local lumberyard.

etc.
----

Lord, please grant me the days to see the Great State of Mississippi capitally punish at least ONE white person for murdering a black person.

Just one, Lord, if you got it in you.

Next year I shall remember to check when it starts a little earlier than the day before it ends - and then you can come and sandiaman, and all our NM pals and Arizona pals and Coloradans - we'll have a really big posse! My word if we work it right we can become a Tour Group and get a discount! It's only $5 to get in tho now, so how much more of a discount there could be I'm not sure.

Although I was really puzzled by the idea that the turkey legs (Turkey on a Stick) were $7 each. That seemed like a lot for turkey legs....


Gravatar" So, did the last thread clarify Bush wetting the bed or not? --
ellroon

You know, my sister (who is a nurse in LA) knew a woman who was sleeping with an ER janitor who also worked at a doctor's office where Bush was brought in on an emergency visit. Said he slipped and fell on a gerbil...


GravatarBefore I sign off, I have to remind everybody again to read Billmon's post today.


GravatarIs there a specific date for the Fitzgerald indictments? They're supposed to come in October. But is it early October, late October? Has there been any word about that?


GravatarSpeaking of interesting topical posts, this one at Billmon, which I found via Attaturk, made me gag and want to cry at the same time. You all may have already discussed it in my absence earlier, but it was damned powerful and expresses sentiments I have felt as well.

A bunch of hippie commies are taken to the big roundup by FEMA in the Evacuation Bus of Love and forced to watch horrible News Broadcasts in a feeble re-education attempt.

I agree, and I betcha that some of the concern over whether Eschaton's fulfilling its "duties" isn't exactly sincere.

I haven't taken a survey, but I bet there's not a single one of us that gets political news only from here. I cycle through 58 bookmarked sites almost every day. And if I ever figure RSS out, I'll have everyone's blogs on it and cycle through those too...

Ditto. And my adult friends who aren't drunks can ride bicycles and Segways.

If he's not drunk, he's on some presciption cocktail of God knows what. Haldol and Klonopin, maybe.


GravatarWhat a comforting thought.

A drunken idiot fratboy moron with his finger on the button.

God, don't y'all feel so much safer now?


GravatarI see Doc and I are on the same page.


GravatarDoc, I was unaware of that website until I read that post an hour or so ago.

But really, it makes sense. It's not an entirely radical departure from what we've already seen.

Why was it neccessary to photograph in Abu Ghraib, for instance? It's just technology meets fascism.


GravatarAnd if I ever figure RSS out, I'll have everyone's blogs on it and cycle through those too...

Reminds me of the Q&A bit on Sienfeld's I'm Telling You For The Last Time DVD.

Gravatari think Bush has always been drinking--lately, I think it's just become beyond what can be concealed by his handlers.


Gravatar Eli--Raptor Island tomorrow night!

Why do I think I've seen this already?

GravatarWhy was it neccessary to photograph in Abu Ghraib, for instance? It's just technology meets fascism.

Ostensibly, they wanted to catalog each technique so they could keep track of what worked and how. Me, I think it was because they're a bunch of sick fucks.


Gravatarpeople who bitch and moan about atrios' open threads misunderstand the nature of eschaton.


GravatarDude, if I could figure it out, you can figure it out. I have Sage in my Firefox sidebar thingy, but I'm open to suggestions if anyone knows of anything better.

GravatarI still think Bush is clinically depressed. What he's taking or doing because of it is an open question. There are probably people who are guarding the truth about his actual condition as a state secret.


GravatarWe've seen Raptor Island, Eli, but it's bad enough to be worth watching again.


GravatarWho cares if he's drunk? He's an evil son-of-a-bitch sober.


GravatarOk. You were told.

Had some homemade chicken soup for dinner. Drinking tea with rum now.

Carrot cake would be yummy. Thanks.


GravatarGreat minds, Karin.


GravatarIf Bush is drinking, can we please get a Democrat to raise the issue and proceed to get him out of power?

Cheney's really running things anyway.


GravatarYou know, I have an extremely trustworthy Doctor friend who told me of an experience he had in the ER where a cat had to be surgically removed from a man's penis.



He's a trustworthy friend and all that, but I'm starting to think he was putting me on.


GravatarWho cares if Bush is depressed? He's an evil son-of-a-bitch happy.


GravatarIndeed...look at the links along the left side of Atrio's page...and those sites have as many links, too. An embarassment of riches out there.


yeah, but sadly, the seaxneat project doesn't get pimped there.

because, unless i whore something, i get very few visitors.



that said, i did get one visitor today who did a google blogsearch on "horsehung" today. that was pretty funny!


GravatarI'm a Mich. State Fair junkie, big time. Love the building where they hawk the wonder mops and all. I've watched calves and lambs be born. I've watched lumberjack and high-diving shows. And eaten more junk than I oughta.

One year I was hobnobbing with a beekeeper who made this observation: "A well-serviced queen is a productive queen." I've thought since that it was a great philosophy to live by. (Even if I haven't managed to make it a reality.


GravatarPop quiz.


GravatarWhy was it neccessary to photograph in Abu Ghraib, for instance? It's just technology meets fascism.

Some say that blackmailing prisoners was a big part of it, and that may be true.

But ya know...allegations of sexual abuse of children tend to follow US contractors around from country to country, and it wouldn't surprise me if sexual torture and snuff films didn't have an audience in the corridors of power...


GravatarWhat's the nature of Eschaton?

What is your quest?


GravatarMay be about time to watch the 2nd disc of the new Scorsese documentary of Dylan No Direction Home. Part one totally rocked. Umm, I mean folk-rocked. Highly recommended.

GravatarWe've seen Raptor Island, Eli, but it's bad enough to be worth watching again.

That one was so bad it was good, IIRC.


GravatarOk. You were told.

That guy I was mentioning earlier - the one who completely lost it - he also had this habit of speaking to the air like that, trying to be clever, then when someone responded to him, he'd say something cryptic again and usually vaguely threatening.

Eerie.


Gravatar If Bush is drinking, can we please get a Democrat to raise the issue and proceed to get him out of power?

what is up with the democrats? do they know something we don't? they should be ripping bush new assholes at every turn. what do they know that we don't? why are they and the press acquiescent to everything the administration puts out?

GravatarAnd, oddly, while waiting for my flight from Abq to take off, we saw that an Air Force One was parked over on the Kirtland AFB. Mercifully it seemed to be some kind of backup, because we took off normally and weren't frisked before boarding or anything.

never figured out what RSS is or XXL but i've also discovered a lot of interesting blogs, including yours. can't visit them all every day, but i know they are there. somehow comforting to know not all the world is batshit insane.

anyway, rekon i'm done for tonite. but peace to all, and to all peace. so saith dr. pangloss.


GravatarNur-al--I have to say, Bush would be a person I would have no sympathy for, clinically depressed or not.

I'm so tired of him giving us the finger at every turn.


Gravatarwhat is up with the democrats?

They are the same tools of corporate power that the Republicans are, they just don't happen to have their names in gold leaf on the Executive office door at the moment.


GravatarSo I was just sayin' somewhere I forget where that there isn't much crossover between Eschaton and dKos, and then Chicago Dirtyword goes and gets herself a recommended diary over there.

Crossover galore!


GravatarIndeed...look at the links along the left side of Atrio's page.

Hmph.


GravatarI get lots of visitors who searched for "monkeys for sale."

that's odd! don't people know that monkeys are very rarely legal? my goodness!


GravatarWhy was it neccessary to photograph in Abu Ghraib, for instance? It's just technology meets fascism.
Seebach


Because I know a lot of members of the military, I've always rejected comparisons with the Nazis, but the clinical precision with which the concentration camp experiments were recorded springs to mind in a truly disturbing way here.


GravatarWhen the Enquirer broke the Lewinsky story, it was just what the rest of the press had been waiting for. Tenuous as it was, it was in print, and that made it "news." Are the press today as eager to make something of Bush's drinking?


Gravatarhow 'bout "Our Troops", and their aluminum baseball bats?


GravatarWhat's the nature of Eschaton?

Have you ever read the Cluetrain Manifesto? It was put out in 96 as a business tome, but it's a pretty good forecast of the nature of the blogosphere.

Other than that, tasty buds and cool waves.

GravatarWhy was it neccessary to photograph in Abu Ghraib, for instance? It's just technology meets fascism.

Ostensibly, they wanted to catalog each technique so they could keep track of what worked and how. Me, I think it was because they're a bunch of sick fucks.


There's also the technique of showing potential torture subjects what's in store for them...also the technique of torturing the subject's loved ones and showing him the pictures...also the technique of making the subject cognizant that his sexual humiliation has been recorded and will be seen by others...and, yes, "sick fucks" who train and study human degradation as merely a set of "techniques."

GravatarI think it's impossible to figure that Bush created these deviants. They were there, always. But was it really always? Did they emerge because of Reagan? But no, the moral majority formed even before that.

I remember avoiding the school musical for 3 years, then finally trying out for it my senior year because the lead the previous year was so awful, I felt it was my duty to try to save the rest of the school from a repeat.

I, uh, got the only major non-singing role (presumably on the strength of my heartfelt rendition of "The Old Dope Peddler"), but the wanker didn't get the lead either, so I was okay. Plus I can now simulate a facial tic on *either* side of my face, which I am convinced will come in handy some day.

Inquiry of Calif. Legislator Widens

By Charles R. Babcock
Washington Post Staff Writer
Saturday, September 24, 2005; Page A04

Federal authorities have executed search warrants on a Long Island businessman who is a longtime friend of Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham (R-Calif.) -- an apparent sign that prosecutors are widening their criminal investigation of the veteran House member.

Agents from the FBI, the Internal Revenue Service and the Defense Criminal Investigative Service executed the search warrants Thursday, Special Agent Jan Caldwell of the FBI office in San Diego said in a statement yesterday. The statement did not say whose property was searched, but sources said it belonged to Thomas T. Kontogiannis of Glen Head, N.Y.

GravatarHer own lawyer claims she's an idiot.

that whole situation is messed up. her plea had nothing to do with reality. that's not fun. it happens all the time, but it's not fun. there are so many people who plead guilty, it's not even funny. most of the time its so that they can turn against someone bigger. take david radler who is expected to testify against lord black.


GravatarBush shied away from San Antonio because it was too sunny, which might interfere with the message that he was "engaged" with the storm response (this time). This morning the CNN anchor was wearing her "serious" face while reporting on a hurricane flight crew that flew thru the eye before it hit land "at the personal request of the President". They are working overtime to shine up his little president shoes for him, but he doesn't even know how to appear engaged without looking like an asshole. I realize that it turns out to be a wash anyway when Bush is involved, but don't you think people would rather see the President at his desk in Washington when he is supposed to be "engaged" in dealing with a crisis?

Just what is so fucking wrong with being a socialist?

The best country to live in according to numerous sources is Norway.

The least stress, the longest lives, the lowest infant mortality, and on and on.

A beer might cost 8 bucks but who needs more than one when everything else is so much better?

I need about a 12 pack just to put up with these assholes running things into the fucking ditch.


GravatarKontogiannis, of Glen Head, N.Y., said in interviews this weekend that he bought the Kelly C, a boat on which Cunningham used to live while Congress was in session, for $600,000 in summer 2002. Kontogiannis spent $100,000 more redecorating it the next year at the Glen Cove marina but didn't use it except for dockside parties, he said, because it wasn't stable in rough seas. Kontogiannis said he never got around to changing the title on the boat from Cunningham's name to his.

Then in late 2003, Kontogiannis said, when Cunningham bought a $2.55 million home in Rancho Santa Fe, the congressman asked if a mortgage company owned by Kontogiannis's nephew and daughter could finance $1.1 million in mortgages. The congressman bought that house shortly after Wade paid $1.675 million for Cunningham's previous home in Del Mar. Wade then sold that house for a $700,000 loss.

Kontogiannis said he recently paid off a $500,000 second mortgage on the Rancho Santa Fe home at the congressman's request, mostly with money he owed Cunningham for the yacht.

There is no mention of Kontogiannis's debt to Cunningham on the congressman's financial disclosure statements.

Bushco won't even let seniors who don't agree with his SocSec "reform" into their town hall meetings. Really, if someone had a problem with England, she wouldn't have been allowed to empty waste baskets at Abu Ghraib, let alone been given access to prisoners.

Brian Wilson dialing up Katrina donors

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- "Iowa Jim" was suspicious. Was Beach Boys co-founder Brian Wilson really putting messages on his official Web site urging people to contribute to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts?

The Web surfer using that screen name e-mailed a challenge: If Wilson called and proved it was really him, Jim would gladly donate $100.

"So I called him up!" a jovial Wilson told The Associated Press. "I was surprised that he said he didn't think I was involved because I really was. So I called him up."

Then Wilson and his wife, Melinda, got another brainstorm. Why not have the legend behind such musical standards as "Good Vibrations," "California Girls" and "Surfin'" call everyone who donates $100 or more? And he decided to match any contribution of $100 or more posted through his Web site by Oct. 1.

"If we get $10,000, we'll match $10,000," Wilson said by phone Friday night.

The musician recalled being warmly welcomed when he performed at the New Orleans JazzFest earlier this year, and said it was heartbreaking to see what Katrina has done to the city.

He said he had made about 15 calls since posting his challenge Thursday.

"I've got to go pretty soon," he said before hanging up Friday. "I've got 20 more calls to make tonight."

GravatarAnd if the band you're in starts playin' different tunes...


GravatarThe devil went down to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind 'cos he was way behind: he was willin' to make a deal.
When he came across this young man sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot.
And the devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said: "Boy let me tell you what:
"I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player too.
"And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.
"Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the devil his due:
"I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul, 'cos I think I'm better than you."
The boy said: "My name's Johnny and it might be a sin,
"But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret, 'cos I'm the best that's ever been."

Johnny you rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard.
'Cos hells broke loose in Georgia and the devil deals it hard.
And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold.
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul.

The devil opened up his case and he said: "I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingertips as he resined up his bow.
And he pulled the bow across his strings and it made an evil hiss.
Then a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this.
When the devil finished, Johnny said: "Well you're pretty good ol' son.
"But if you'll sit down in that chair, right there, and let me show you how its done."

Fire on the moun, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin, pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."

The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.
He laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet.
Johnny said: "Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.
"I told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been."

And he played fire on the mount, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."

And we don't wear it on our heads
It's a symbol of the land where the good guys live
Are you listening to what I said
You're a coward and a fool
And you broke all of the rules
And you wounded our American pride

And now we're coming with a gun
And we know you're gonna run
But you can't find no place to hide
We're gonna hunt you down like a mad dog hound
Make you pay for the lives you stole
We're all through talking and a messing around
And now it's time to rock and roll

These colors don't run and we're speaking as one
When we say united we stand
When you mess with one, you mess with us all
Every boy, girl, woman and man
You've been acting mighty rash
And talking that trash
Let me give you some advice
You can crawl back in your hole
Like a dirty little mole

But now you're gonna pay the price
You might of shot us in the back
Now you have to face the fact
That the big boys' in the game
And the lightning's been flashing
And the thunder's been crashing
And now it's getting ready to rain

This is the United States of America
The land of the brave and the free
We believe in God and we believe in justice
We believe in liberty
You've been pulling our chain
We should've done something 'bout you a long time ago
But now the flag's flying high and the fur's gonna fly
And soon the whole world's gonna know

This ain't no rag, it's a flag
Old Glory red, white and blue
The stars and the stripes when it comes to a fight
We can do what we have to do
Our people stand proud
The American crowd is faithful, loyal and tough
We're good as the best and better than the rest
And you're gonna find out soon enough
When you look up in the sky
And you see the eagle fly
You better know he's a heading your way
Cause this ain't no rag it's a flag
And it stands for the USA
USA
USA
USA

This is the United States of America
The land of the brave and the free
We believe in God and we believe in justice
We believe in liberty
You've been pulling our chain
We should've done something 'bout you a long time ago
But now the flag's flying high and the fur's gonna fly

GravatarI think we can all agree that nobody could have POSSIBLY predicted this:

""Women cannot walk freely out in the street," said activist Ban Jamil, who directs the Rasafa Branch of Assyrian Women Union, a local non-governmental organisation in Baghdad.

"Women face lack of respect when they walk uncovered," said Jamil, a Christian, who said women are insulted if they show too much skin or walk in public without wearing the Islamic veil, or hijab, to cover their hair.

She blamed "imported extremist doctrines, which were never experienced in the past" for the new restrictions.

The tide of Islamisation has risen in Iraq as fundamentalist Shiite parties have come to power following the ouster of former dictator
Saddam Hussein.

The article goes on to say that the restrictions on women's rights is probably not as bad as it would be if the US weren't there. Mighty fine Islamic republic we'll be leaving in our wake if and when we ever leave...

Someone scrawled on the wall "I smell the blood of les tricoteuses"
Who wrote up scandals in other bars

I'm having so much fun with the poisonous people
Spreading rumours and lies and stories they made up
Some make you sing and some make you scream
One makes you wish that you'd never been seen
But there's a shop on the corner that's selling papier mache
Making bullet-proof faces, Charlie Manson, Cassius Clay
If you want it, boys, get it here, thing

Gravatarfrom an article in Corporate Welfare Daily:

"It's a competitive world, and Delaware's not far down the road, to be honest," said John J. Brennan, chairman and chief executive officer of Vanguard Group (www.vanguard.com), the second-largest U.S. mutual fund firm. Right on both counts. And the world of business incentives is also a mighty competitive sphere.

In fact, Pennsylvania's US$55.5 million incentive package "tipped the balance" in Vanguard's decision to expand its world headquarters in Chester County, Brennan said.

Vanguard's plans call for building an office park on a 245-acre (98-ha.) tract near the Downingtown interchange of the Pennsylvania Turnpike in Uwchlan Township. Over the long term, the project could create 6,000 new jobs at Vanguard.

GravatarHey Ruppert,

Just what is so fucking wrong with being a socialist?

The best country to live in according to numerous sources is Norway.

The least stress, the longest lives, the lowest infant mortality, and on and on.

A beer might cost 8 bucks but who needs more than one when everything else is so much better?

I need about a 12 pack just to put up with these assholes running things into the fucking ditch.


Yes, it's bewildering the assumptions the trolls make, and by the way Vinnie, I like your style. Nice comeback.

But seriously, a beer can be found in the right places in Norway for less than $8 if you know where to go. My friend Christian from Oslo said the biggest problem for young people is that there are few jobs, and none pay enough to afford even a condominium at the bottom. Education is free, but entry-level jobs are poorly paid.

Sounds like the United States.

Apparently people in Socialist countries are haves and have nots, even have mores, as glorious presnit calls them.

This illusion among the right wingers that socialist countries are disabled, weak, nonaspiring, and leeching populations would be laughable if it wasn't so damaging to any sort of fairness this country needs deperately. I have several Canadian friend who would punch their lights out if someone called them lazy.

It's not going away, this false image in the minds of the trolls, they just don't get it because they never leave their gas-guzzling pickups long enough to know anyone but other wingers. I certainly don't want to know them.

GravatarSallyh,

''It is my opinion that Lynndie England carries with her an immense amount of baggage,'' said Thomas Dene, a school psychologist who knew her from when she was 4 years old.

''Lynndie England has a very complex language-processing dysfunction.'' ''She is overly compliant in social settings, especially in the presence of perceived authority.'' England's lawyers are arguing that because of these traits, she simply complied when abuse ringleader Charles Graner, 37, her boyfriend with whom she has a child, told her to pose with the leash and in other photos that caused worldwide outrage.

Shut up Vinnie you fucking retard.

Our poorest are rich in terms of the d's poor.

Anyone that's poor in this country is a lazy leach sucking off the govt teat.

Sound familiar?

i'll look into that!


GravatarI don't edit porn but I'll be the first one to critique it.


GravatarNot that odd that Bowie's post-apocalyptic Diamond Dogs album would remind me of the borebots.

For we're breaking in the new boys, deceive your next of kin
For you're dancing where the dogs decay, defecating ecstasy
You're just an ally of the leecher
Locator for the virgin King, but I love you in your fuck-me pumps
And your nimble dress that trails
Oh, dress yourself, my urchin one, for I hear them on the rails
Because of all we've seen, because of all we've said
We are the dead


GravatarGeoffy's job only requires a BA. makes that MBA he earned at Wassamatta U seem, how you say, useless? redundant?

GravatarOne of my pet peeves though are those idiotic stickers that people have on their cars showing Calvin peeing of giving the finger. Desecration of a comic strip icon is what it is, I say.
elkal


That sticker does have a way of ruining the memory of a genuinely funny comic. My favorite of all time was when Calvin and Hobbes were sitting under a tree and Hobbes asks, "Do you believe there's really a God?" Calvin replies, "Well, SOMEBODY'S out to get me . . . "


Gravatar D. McEnroe, Paper Moonbat - I like your Calvin gravatar.

It's up? I'm still seeing my old Inspector Dreyfus.

You know, one of the reasons all those dumbass stickers exist is because Watterson refused to license Calvin and Hobbes for any product. Somehow, the fact that there are no "official" Calvin products out there weakens the syndicate's case against counterfeit images. It's all very arcane.


GravatarYou told everyone a few nights back that you do. Or do you not recall?

Given your poor reading skills, I understand now why an MBA is working at a job requiring a BA.

or don't they teach the past tense of verbs up there in the Maine schools?

LMAO.


GravatarHeh. Gordon said he had the moonbats dancing but I didn't believe he could accomplish so much so fast. You guys need to agree on a story.

Do I work for Vanguard in NC or go to school in Gorham Maine? That's one hell of a commute. Go ahead and call Vanguard. Ask for me. While you're at it, record the conversation and post it for us. Watching Gordon make idiots of you is fun, but it's that much better when you do it yourself.

After you finish your phone call, swing by 23 Preble St to say hi. Ask for me. If that's too far for you to travel, let me know and I'll change my whois info to something closer for you. It changes every few months anyway.

There isn't much I laugh harder at than obsessed idiots squawking like turkeys.

Good job, Gordon.

GravatarOf course nobody beats Bobby Z:

For them that must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Cultivate their flowers to be
Nothing more than something
They invest in.

While some on principles baptized
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs in drag disguise
Outsiders they can freely criticize
Tell nothing except who to idolize
And then say God bless him.

While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he's in.

GravatarThis illusion among the right wingers that socialist countries are disabled, weak, nonaspiring, and leeching populations would be laughable if it wasn't so damaging to any sort of fairness this country needs deperately. I have several Canadian friends who would punch their lights out if someone called them lazy.

My earnings contribute to the taxes that pay for your welfare check, socialist scum.



No welfare here, and my socialist friends in Canada and Norway work as well.

Halliburton, on the other hand, rakes in billions in no-bid contracts thanks to Cheney. Looters of the worst kind, I'd say.

Unjustified anger, false accusations, and one-sided communication are attributes of people with serious personal problems.

GravatarFor those who carried our banners


Far between sundown's finish an' midnight's broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing
As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sounds
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing
Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight
An' for each an' ev'ry underdog soldier in the night
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

In the city's melted furnace, unexpectedly we watched
With faces hidden while the walls were tightening
As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowin' rain
Dissolved into the bells of the lightning
Tolling for the rebel, tolling for the rake
Tolling for the luckless, the abandoned an' forsaked
Tolling for the outcast, burnin' constantly at stake
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Through the mad mystic hammering of the wild ripping hail
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
That the clinging of the church bells blew far into the breeze
Leaving only bells of lightning and its thunder
Striking for the gentle, striking for the kind
Striking for the guardians and protectors of the mind
An' the unpawned painter behind beyond his rightful time
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
For the disrobed faceless forms of no position
Tolling for the tongues with no place to bring their thoughts
All down in taken-for-granted situations
Tolling for the deaf an' blind, tolling for the mute
Tolling for the mistreated, mateless mother, the mistitled prostitute
For the misdemeanor outlaw, chased an' cheated by pursuit
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far-off corner flashed
An' the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless, seeking trail
For the lonesome-hearted lovers with too personal a tale
An' for each unharmful, gentle soul misplaced inside a jail
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Starry-eyed an' laughing as I recall when we were caught
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
As we listened one last time an' we watched with one last look
Spellbound an' swallowed 'til the tolling ended
Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones an' worse
An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

GravatarMy biggest concern right now is my new house and all of my belongings. For whatever reason, I am my family's repository of mementos such as photos, letters, and other keepsakes. I am also obsessively my own biggest fan ---and I try to keep everything I've ever written of any importance. So I am sitting on top of a big pile of potential heartbreak and I am worrying about my situation.

Gravatarwell, if Hotski Trotski is taken, I guess I'll have to go with Poison Ivan.


GravatarRipley--you remind me, we were driving in CT with my father in law, and we passed a lavanderia called 'Bubbles.' My father in law, who is 85, said, I thought it was a strip joint!

Apparently we have to bury you guys to get rid of the lech in you


Gravatar"Car?" -- Eli

I could probably do it for you for free. Of course, if your hair falls out, you could get a high-paying White House gig.


GravatarApparently we have to bury you guys to get rid of the lech in you

"Lech in" has a way of clinging tenaciously.


GravatarAnd Brigitte Bardot is holding a nice looking tabby cat.

It's not only Buddhists who are interested in the proper way to enter the Bardot state.


GravatarEli--sorry, I forget. In LA, you are what you drive.

Think of something expensive. If you don't have anything, think of what you could steal from someone else to finance it.


GravatarOkay, all. have a good night. See you later.


GravatarI could probably do it for you for free. Of course, if your hair falls out, you could get a high-paying White House gig.

As long as it grew back, I wouldn't especially mind. I used to get it buzzed as close as possible without being actually bald, so it wouldn't be a big shock to my system.

Hmmm I actually have a DVD of that on the rack downstairs...won it in a trivia contest from the online rental place I use, just haven't had the chance to actually see it yet. That has Anthony Perkins, doesn't it?

Mebbe that can be tomorrow's entertainment.


Gravatarsallyh,

Gravatar"Brigitte Bardot in her prime. Oof." -- Eli

Have I mentioned Brigitte and I are both Libras? She and Grace Kelly are the only blondes that I consider really beautiful. I always thought dark haired women -- Elizabeth Taylor, Lucy Liu, Catherine Zeta-Jones -- were more beautiful.

Although Kate Winslet is a lovely redhead.


Gravatardid everyone read Chicago Dyke's great rant today over at Kos? worth a read, it's in the recommended section.

Indeed. I wonder how long before we start asking her to autograph copies of her book?


GravatarGood night, good people.

You've cheered me up nicely.


GravatarFirst movie that I exposed my wife to was Vampire's Kiss. And yet, she stayed with me!

Pretty sure the first movie my girlfriend & I saw together was Blair Witch, and it gave her motion sickness.

We also played rather a lot of Area 51 in the lobby while waiting for it to start...


GravatarNight Batses - dream well - it was a good day.

Yeah, you put in a full day of social isolation. Pat yourself on the back.


GravatarMrs. Ibrahim--if you have time, I'll meet you for a drink. I'll provide contact info before you get here.

Gravatarrichard,

love the GCD. have you seen the Kirby site MonsterBlog ?

but thinking of young Bucky as "speedboy" is pretty cool.


GravatarOh, now you started it!



Bunny Lebowski: Blow on them.

The Dude: You want me to blow on your toes?

Bunny Lebowski: I can't blow that far.

The Dude: Are you sure he won't mind?

Bunny Lebowski: Ulli doesn't care about anything. He's a Nihilist.

The Dude: Ah. Must be exhausting.

GravatarYes, I just got back from reading Chicago Dyke's Kos diary, and all the subsequent comments. First time I've been to Kos in months.

They could use it. I've only posted a couple diaries there because I just don't get the feel of the place. I read it several times a day but generally skip the comments and don't have the energy to get into the ratings issues that seem to crop so often.


Gravatar"You slut." -- Central Scrutinizer

That goes so well with your gravatar.


GravatarCentral--for ~30 seconds, we contemplated getting married as Princess Leia and Han Solo.

The way the wedding went, we should have gone to Vegas and done it


GravatarI am so pathetic and my dick is so shriveled and small.


GravatarI used to love Kos, but now it's like work to go there.


GravatarDamn, CSPAN went straight from the DC rally to Bush's appearance in San Antonio.
And he's wearing that damn blue shirt again! Doesn't he have any other clothes?


GravatarGood night, dear people. I leave you with Viking kittens.

Peace.


Gravatar I used to love Kos, but now it's like work to go there.

Exactly. Except I think it only took me a few days to reach that conclusion...


GravatarKos is a pain in the ass. There's usually some great stuff over there, but getting to it is hard labor.

GravatarNow that I think about it, Cinema Paradiso actually was an early date movie in that relationship. As was a showing of Nagisa Oshima's In The Realm of the Senses. From the sacred to the profane, these are the films of my life...


GravatarKarin--Walmart had a 'buy 3, get 1 free' deal.


GravatarMarcia,

Joel agrees with everything I say.

You should have.


GravatarPls forgive me for not following every comment. Busy times, unfortunately (on one hanmd - yet means I am still employed, on the other).

You guys are great, and, I am comfortable here. (this may be co mpletely self-delusional in that you all think I'm a complete jerk, but I always go here first, after work).

Anyway, Sallyh, pls send me email message re: how to get cookbook. Many thanks.


GravatarThe thing that kills me about dKos and a few other places is the 'we're a community, so (the proprietor of the site) has to listen to us!' attitude that some people have.

And the 'there are 60,000 of us - let's call for a boycott!' crap that keeps bubbling up... yeesh...

The costumes WERE already white. It's kind of a no-brainer.

Not so sure about the bagel hair, though.


Gravatar Please tell me "Fighting American" is some kind of parody...

Simon and Kirby were poking fun at their earlier creation, Captain America. Here's a classic page, featuring "Double Header" ...

GravatarCentral--the marriage is good. The wedding, however, was a horror show.

We'd have a hell of a lot more entertaining pics if we'd gone to Vegas, too.


GravatarChemistry pop quiz...

Don't get Eli started on the titrations!


GravatarMarcia Brady--I went as Princess Leia for Halloween in 1978. I made the white dress, borrowed my baby brother's blaster and R2D2 critter, and my sister spend 2 hours trying to force my hair into the cinnamon bun position. I believe record quantities of bobby pins and Aquanet were used in this operation.

GravatarThousands Take Their Message of Peace To White House, Despite Bush Absence

Sunday, September 25, 2005; A01

Tens of thousands of people packed downtown Washington yesterday and marched past the White House in the largest show of antiwar sentiment in the nation's capital since the conflict in Iraq began.

The demonstration drew grandmothers in wheelchairs and babies in strollers, military veterans in fatigues and protest veterans in tie-dye. It was the first time in a decade that protest groups had a permit to march in front of the executive mansion, and, even though President Bush was not there, the setting seemed to electrify the crowd.

Signs, T-shirts, slogans and speeches outlined the cost of the Iraq conflict in human as well as economic terms. They memorialized dead U.S. troops and Iraqis, and contrasted the price of war with the price of recovery for areas battered by hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Riffs on Vietnam-era protests were plentiful, with messages declaring, "Make Levees, Not War," "I never thought I'd miss Nixon" and "Iraq is Arabic for Vietnam." Many in the crowd had protested in the 1960s; others weren't even born during those tumultuous years.

etc.
