Damn, girl, haven't seen you around here in forever!!! 
I know this question gets asked and asked and asked, but ....
what good did it do to divulge Joe Wilson's wife as a CIA undercover agent.
Besides forcing her out of a job how does this 'get at' or punish Joe Wilson?
It certainly does not hurt them financialy...maybe her pride in losing a job she did well andbenefited the country doing...?
Are they really that stupid to jepardise the whole lot of them for some petty little 'gotch'?

I don't consider that tinfoil at all. You just don't fuck with the spooks.
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - A federal judge dismissed the state Republican Party's effort to get its former insurer to cover nearly $1 million the party paid to settle a lawsuit over a political eavesdropping scandal.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Dennis W. Dohnal wrote in a 17-page opinion that Union Insurance Co. was not obliged to cover damages arising from crimes GOP officers committed to benefit the party.
Now, that's fuckin' funny.

Missing two things:
1.) The petty vindictiveness of the GOP, putting party loyalty and perceptions of infallability abpout all else, including national security;
2.) The outing was a shot across the bow to any and all who know what a weak and propagandized case had been made to justify the invasion of Iraq. It was the horse's head in the bed. Anyone knowing that our own Administration-in-power would out a CIA asset, well... that's a good sign that there's nothing they wouldn't do to keep anyone in line.

Couser, if the intent was not only to discredit Wilson and his wife, but also to issue a warning to all other CIA and other intelligence folks that careers could easily be ruined if the line was not toed, then perhaps the move makes more sense.

what good did it do to divulge Joe Wilson's wife as a CIA undercover agent.

Here's my sprack: WHIG was looking to wipe out Plame's CIA group, which was working on weapons of mass destruction, even as it was trying to intimidate any critics other than Wilson from going public about the tarted-up "intelligence."
The entire premise of the White House "outing" Valerie Plame to avenge itself on Joe Wilson is stupid. A pulp fiction writer wouldn't come up with such tripe.

That's my take too. I think Plame was the target and Wilson just happy collateral damage. Wilson is a pretty good looking guy, smart, debonair (sp?), and getting him was just the icing.

The Owls are not what they seem.
Speaking of owls--real ones--I've got 'em in the woods here, and I hear the standard "who-who" sometimes at night. But a few times, there's been this long drawn out, rising screedh like something out of a horror movie. First time I heard it, I ran outside with the rifle. When it started, it sounded like a woman being attacked in the woods, but by the time it finished, I thought Aliens had landed. A buddy said, when I told him I had screech owls on my place, no, them's just hoot owls; they do that sometimes.
I don't think I ever wanna hear a real screech owl...

As a matter of fact, Saddam was himself a terrorist, as were his sons and the great bulk of his Ba'athist regime. Iraq was a safe haven for many of the world's most notorious terrorists, including Abu Nidal, Abu Abbas, and Abdul Yasin, the guy who mixed the chemicals used in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.

Apologies if this has been mentioned earlier today, but I happened to read this in the print edition of the Times this morning and it turned my stomach.
I don't know how the Administration's lawyers can make these arguments; I believe that if I were working for them and I were asked to advocate that people who are being held without a charge, without a hearing, for more than two years in defiance of the Supreme Court's decision a year ago should be prevented from talking over the phone to families, I would choose to quit rather than to be a part of such a soul-destroying bunch.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14 (AP) - Terrorism suspects on a hunger strike at the American detention center at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, should not be allowed to speak in person or even by telephone with relatives and friends because of security risks, the government argued on Friday in federal court.
Lawyers for the detainees on hunger strike said they might be persuaded through such discussions to resume eating and drinking. The inmates have pledged to starve themselves to death unless they are released or brought to trial after more than three years at the center.
More than three fucking years.

Nothing is going to change if we don't support Democrats who are willing to fight in the primaries.

That sentence says it all. For these assholes, a country only "matters" if it is powerful and can impose its will on others militarily and/or economically.

In the late '70's it used to be sort of challenging to argue with republicans. I mean, who wouldn't want a balanced budget and for the government to stay out our private lives.
But this is no longer our parents' republican party. They stand for nothing but fiscal irresponsibility and hate.

Well, well, well... Look what I found in the garbage...er, the Excuse-for-News, er... The San Antonio Express-News
Claims of McCarthyism from DeLay camp (No, I'm not kidding. That's the headline!)
AUSTIN — Travis County District Attorney Ronnie Earle's probe of GOP campaign spending was likened to McCarthyism by a lawyer for one of U.S. Rep. Tom DeLay's indicted associates after a Friday court appearance.
Earle would only say the investigation into alleged misuse of corporate contributions is continuing, as DeLay and associates Jim Ellis and John Colyandro fight charges.
Lawyer J.D. Pauerstein of San Antonio, representing Ellis, likened prosecutors to 1950s communist-hunter Joseph McCarthy, saying they haven't produced the list mentioned in indictments as having guided GOP operatives in how to distribute improper donations.
I'd ask if these folks had any decency...but why bother? /sigh/
Have fun with this one...

MOSCOW — The Bush administration threatened Saturday to take Iran before the United Nations Security Council "at a time of our choosing" if Iran does not return to negotiations over a program that could give it the ability to make nuclear weapons. But Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice failed to gain Russian support for prompt Security Council action, undermining U.S. efforts to put pressure on the Iranian regime.

My fav here in WI is Lake Louie. It pretty new, the just switched from growlers to regular bottles. The owner/brewmaster (Tom Porter) seems to be a damn savant. He only drank Miller/Bud until he decided he was spending too much money on beer. Tom then started brewing his own stuff. He got to the point where he was buying out the local hops shop, and was told he better get a licence. So he did, and quickly local bars started putting his stuff on tap and local liquor stores sold his growlers.

Tena, I moved to Oakland for a few years and that was the ultimate in great weather. Hard to move back here initially more due to the lack of sun in Jan-March. It is cloudy a lot that time of year, but generally it doesn't rain as much as people think. That's what Dave J. and I joke about. Oregonians tend to keep that myth going to reduce the Californicating (urban sprawl, home values going up too fast, etc.)
Many many times over the last 6 months people here have complained about the heat, humidity, etc. and I just keep our great weather to myself! Finally rained yesterday. In a few years global warming may drive lots of people to the NW.

CNN is covering the aftermath of a neo-Nazi demonstration in Toledo, Ohio. The neo-Nazi message includes many different offensive ideas, but one dominant theme is that blacks (along with other "non-Aryans") are stupid, emotional, violent, and incapable of controlling themselves. (I sense a little projection go on there.)
So what happened when the neo-Nazis held their rally? A crowd of largely black counterdemonstrators showed up, as is their right, to express an alternative point of view. Not surprisingly, some of the counterdemonstrators got angry, and started throwing rocks at the neo-Nazis. Dumb, but somewhat understandable. When the violence started, the police escorted the neo-Nazis out of the area.
So what happened next? The counterdemonstrators started looting houses and shops, and kicking in doors of homes in the area. The footage showed them not only stealing stuff from homes, from throwing television sets from second story windows. Theft, while wrong, has a certain logic to it: "You have something that I don't have, and I'm not willing to work to get it." Destroying stuff? That's something that someone who is stupid, emotional, violent, and incapable of controlling himself does.
I would dearly love for the police, after they arrest some of these idiots, to ask them this question: "Why did you work so hard to conform to neo-Nazi stereotypes of black people?"
And it's dry.
Dammmit Tena now the rest of the US will discover the truth of Rocky Mountain climate. It's not near as bad as people think it is.

US practice of starving out Iraqi civilians is inhumane, says UN
By Bradley S Klapper
Published: 15 October 2005
The United States-led coalition's alleged practice of cutting off food and water to force Iraqi civilians to flee before attacks on insurgent strongholds is a "flagrant violation" of international law, a United Nations rights advocate said yesterday. The action is inhumane and causes innocent people to suffer, said Jean Ziegler, the UN special rapporteur on the right to food.
The Geneva Conventions on warfare, which form the basis of international humanitarian law, not only forbid denying food to civilians, but actually make the occupying force responsible to provide it, he said. "This is a flagrant violation of international law."
A US military spokesman in Baghdad, Lt-Col Steve Boylan, dismissed the criticism as inaccurate. "Any accusations of coalition forces refusing basic needs from the citizens of Iraq are completely false," he said.
Wow. We are really setting new lows for standards of treatment of civlians. It's not easy being imperial.
Just wow.

Shouldn't we at least be detaining them indefinitely without trial before we can start starving them to death?
I mean, there are protocols that should be observed here, people.
trolls remind me of arch-enemies on Venture Brothers.

atta,
Punter prolly should have run it into the end zone anyway.

Yep, you take the safety in that situation.
dieselcreek,
10 years ago the Neo-Nazis wanted to hold a march/rally in downtown Dayton. The city fought it, but realizing they wouldn't win, did it their way. The Nazis got their rally, but the City blocked of downtown to everyone but the Nazis and the police, no counterdemonstrations, no violence. Tha Nazis were preaching to nothing but themselves and empty buildings.
I was at the library that day, and the head of circulation asked me if I was going to try a get near the Rush Limbaugh family reunion. Hah!

Oh, I see. We hate Condi because she's a successful black woman who pulled herself up by her own bootstraps.
Riiiiiiggghhhht.

Ooh, I have a troll? Lemme go see!
Yeah, Condi's black.

There are parts of western Wyoming, and Montana where you see something kind of strange.
Trailers will steel cables wrapped around them going into large impressive concrete anchors in the ground.
When I asked and oldtimer about this. He said it was because of the wind. He said some old homesteder buildings and towns just "blew away" in the wind.
You know if we have to keep on hearing about Robert Byrd's KKK past, shouldn't we be talking about w's boozing, whoring and sniffing crack days. I mean geesh, that was only 25 years ago.
Tena, I'm envisioning a sitcom premise or a dreadful feature film in which the party couple does move to Colorado, disturbingly close to you, determined to open a nightclub/roadhouse in the area.
One wacky twist involves the roadhouse switching from an Early Bird Special seniors trough by day into a depraved hive of sin between sundown and sunup.
And you and Mr. Tena would get involved somehow. You know, you'd agree to become a partner for the sole purpose of flooding the place with armies of termites, carpenter ants and fire ants on opening night. We could even have some CGI arson ants, budget permitting.
And hijinks and hilarity would ensue. And it would all be framed by your voice-over blog comments.
We may have to invent a fat, ugly sister if they're still all the rage.
It's a work in progress.
PS: This is one way to stop scratching the Indictments itch.
doug - I've heard that it's worse in Montana than in Colorado. Given that the wind blows through the Lake Fork Valley strong enough to break a huge cottonwood in half and level a house, (which happened this last August, downtown) I don't know how it could get much worse.
It'll blow the hair off your head.
Yeah, Condi's black.
Sharecropper chic.
I know after living in the spot my house is located in for over a decade that we do get some strong wind here occasionaly. Several times a year we get winds that are 80 to 100mph, when the winds get lined up the right way. In my case when they are lined up from roaring lion and goat creek canyons, which are lined up perfectly to point strong winds right at my house.
I love the woodwinds in "The Untouchables".
Probably more than is healthy.

watertiger - 3:41 pm
Well, she's blackish.
Apparently Notre Dame's green jerseys look better in HDTV.
Okay.
Little Brother - the big stumbling block to all of that is that Lake City, like Pagosa Springs, Crested Butte, Ouray, and most of the mountain towns, have noise ordinances. Can't be honky-tonking after 10:00 at night. At least, can't be honky-tonking where anyone can hear it.
doug - I've heard that it's worse in Montana than in Colorado.
Big Sky, big winds. I got chased by one of those Montana winds one time, pushed me down from Calgary straight to Dillon before I ever had to put a foot to a gas pedal....

Didn't they wear the green jerseys all the time during Montana's days there?

I don't know, I don't have HDTV.
doug -that happens up where I am too. Micro-bursts of 80 and 100 mile an hour straight line winds. The sustained winds are usually around 45 mph.
The Lake Fork Valley is very narrow and it acts as a funnel.

To me, northern New Mexico has the perfect weather. Four distinct seasons, however, the snow is not as deep, and it's not as cold, as the mountains in Colorado.
And it's dry.
Tena
And, btw? Hush. Just don't talk about it and maybe it'll keep to itself awhile longer. Shhhhhhhhhhh....
I don't know, I don't have HDTV.

I think you have to punch the closed captioning button on your remote to see the green jerseys.
agave,
This is was about 95, so you may have escaped by them. IIRC, you lived in Byron?
Is the ND game in So. Bend or away?
GWPDA - Yah, I should keep my mouth shut.
Forget I said anything about New Mexico, people. They really don't like outsiders there.
This guy, however, lost me when he insisted that "judgment" should be spelled with an extra "e." I'm a prescriptivist on that one.
Well, Silleigh, it's not as tho those of us who spell judgement just throw the 'e' in anywhere we like. We don't spell it judgmente or anything.... We're just Canadian after all, and it's a perfectly good style sheet.

In other news, Floyd is holding Mayberry hostage in what officials are characterizing as a "homespun" standoff.

Yeah, Condi's black.
She's as white as snow. We saw real black people after Katrina hit NO. They were looting stores and murdering people.
Now, that's black.

But with the emphasis they put on good grooming, he was the #2 man in their organization in Iraq.
So I'm listening to some early Dylan, which I haven't listened to in about 20 years. Good stuff, good stuff. It really was a revolution in music when you consider the bubblegum crap that came before.
Did you know that his mom invented White Out???
Really? I read where James Dobson holds that patent.
Forget I said anything about New Mexico, people. They really don't like outsiders there.

I felt quit welcome there.
There was an undercurrent of anti Gringoism in some quarters, tho.

A cruel blow to the arch-fiend criminal mastermind bin Laden, no doubt. But let's not forget that he still keeps his knights, Al Qaeda's manicurist and pedicurist, in play.
The existence of an Al Qaeda masseur has never been conclusively established.
Fellow Ohioans and others -- Ron Parsley launched his Ohio REstoration Project, the Christian-revival-cum-voter-drive backing SOS Blacwell for gov, right on the Statehouse lawn yesterday. Had a commendation from the legislature and everything . . .
Micro-bursts of 80 and 100 mile an hour straight line winds. The sustained winds are usually around 45 mph.
We get these cool "suete" winds a little northwest of me, around Cheticamp in the Highlands.
Sometimes in nor'easters, they'll blow oil storage tanks over and peel the siding off of homes.
Forget I said anything about New Mexico, people. They really don't like outsiders there.

Actually New England it worse for that.
"Really? I read where James Dobson holds that patent."
I thought he invented post-it's. I might be confused, however.
ql - Good stuff, good stuff. It really was a revolution in music when you consider the bubblegum crap that came before.
I've said this before, but I can remember in great detail the first time I ever heard Like a Rolling Stone. It changed my life. It really did.
Go ON USC! Kick the crap out of those wannabe's Notre Dame!
BTW, for any of y'all stuck inside because the Biblican rains have continued--it's about 72 here in Los Angeles, nice breeze scurbbing the smog away, lovely lit-lit-little fluffy clouds. Don't move here, but I'm just sayin'.
Actually New England it worse for that.
I've heard that about New England. I bet if I moved up there with this accent, I'd be shunned.
Like a Rolling Stone: Amen!
GWPDA, I didn't realize that was considered acceptable in Canada. Damn, also didn't realize QUITE so much controversy existed on the subject -- I just found a page titled, I shit you not, "The Alliance for the Preservation of the Correct Spelling of the Word 'Judgment,'" and it's a screed, boy howdy.

"I'm just the cook."
Now is the time on Sprockets when we have new sheets.
I mentioned this the other day,but I just have to repeat it b/c it is so funny:
I was talking to a CIA agent on Fri. and I mentioned to him that I thought Rove should go to jail. He replied, "I hate that motherfucker".
"Really? I read where James Dobson holds that patent."
I thought he invented post-it's. I might be confused, however.
Both common misconseptions.
He did, however, invent the Justice League with Superman, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman.
Or was it the Legion of Doom?
Zap confused. Back to country music...
We saw real black people after Katrina hit NO. They were looting stores and murdering people.
Yeah, the white people were just "borrowing" stuff from the convenience stores.
Yes, Threadbot had a new baby. It's up in the nursery.
Tena -- First song I heard was Subterranean Homesick Blues. I was driving through downtown and sat through a green light, just listening.
OK Tena, I can see that you're not overly enthralled with my comedy screenplay treatment, but I can't help closing the subject by remarking that the anti-noise ordinances angle could be a springboard to involving talent like Burt Reynolds and Dom DeLuise in the roles of law enforcement officers.
Maybe I'll shop this around, if you don't mind...
GWPDA, I didn't realize that was considered acceptable in Canada.
Of course it is. We also double final consonants (travelled, etc.) and finally got everybody to agree that the word describing hues and such is spelt with a 'u'. Chesterfield however is no longer always on the list.
agave, Fairborn and Beavercreek are encroaching with great speed upon Byron. Since Ohio is losing population I wonder where these folks are coming from.
And NE may not like outsiders, but Kentucky is also well known for not liking 'foreigners', at least down in the hollers.
Is it important that the mayor of a small town be thinking about a decision between Tamiflu and a swimming pool?" Sect'y of HHS Mike Leavitt.
Cripes--now he's recommending every little town have its own stockpile of Tamiflu? When it's not even available to stockpile?
Mikey, this is a Federal level responsibility, perhaps best done in that hifalutin Dept. of Homeland Security. Them birds are terra-ists, even if they do fly in the sky.
To The Point had a guest on who said Tommy Thompson, Leavitt's predecessor, had a meeting about avian flu scheduled for 9/11/01, cancelled, of course. But even hapless Thompson continued to recommend funding for research and stockpiling meds for the possible avian flu pandemic--and each year the WH and Rethuglican Congress said there were higher priorities.
Tax cuts for Paris Hilton, StarWars missile defense, GWOT, Iraq.
Just as there were higher priorities than re-establishing the Gulf marshes and strengthening the levees.
Feel protected much, Red Staters or Blue? Bush voters?
The Administration of D'uh!
Sometimes, D'oh!--when they actually realize something about reality. Usually too late.

The Great Judy "Kneepads" Miller apologia is now up--free! And worth every penny no doubt!-- at the NYT.

Amigos, from the NYT story:
In a notebook belonging to Judith Miller, a reporter for The New York Times, amid notations about Iraq and nuclear weapons, appear two small words: "Valerie Flame."
"Valerie Flame" ~
I, ¡El Gato Negro! used to watch her dance at the Pero y Caballero...
¡Dios del Gatos! could she work the pole.
so.
OK, I'm done mowing the lawn. Did I miss anything?
GWDPA, and of course they say "ashvault" instead of "assvault"
from the NYT story:
"W.M.D. - I got it totally wrong," she(Judy) said. "The analysts, the experts and the journalists who covered them - we were all wrong. If your sources are wrong, you are wrong. I did the best job that I could."
Meow wow wow, from "I was proved fucking right" to "WMD I got it totally wrong".
Thees wonders, weel they never cease?
¿eh?
Oh, I see. We hate Condi because she's a successful black woman who pulled herself up by her own bootstraps.
