Yeah, but lying is back off the table as a discussable offense. Funny how that happens just when it's becoming clear that every word Bush, Cheney,
Rove, and the NYT have said is a lie, including "and" and "the," isn't it???
Look, this sex stuff is IMPORTANT, not like that trivial bullshit about like who told what lies that led to what war.
No, I have never had sex. I have never thought about having sex. No one in my family has ever had sex.

So what do the Republicans have at this point?
Consider:
1. A war going badly
2. Inept response to natural disasters
3. Free spending of monumental proportions
4. A tax "plan" that proposes to take away the middle class' two main breaks
5. A war going very badly
6. A dead Social Security plan
7. A House majority leader under indictment
8. A Senate majority leader under investigation for insider trading
9. A top White House aide under indictment for perjuring himself about whether he revealed the name of a covert agent.

I don't get it. What will the Republicans really be able to offer America in 2006? That they're not liberal?
It won't matter in the end. Corzine by at least 5 points.
Drudge fulfills a very useful function for the right--he prints the salacious stuff, and then other outlets get around the whole "we shouldn't report this" by not reporting on the allegation itself, but reporting on Drudge's reporting of the allegation. So they end up printing dirt, but claim to only be reporting on other members of the media.
I'm sure to this day you could find members of the media who would say "hey, we didn't report that Kerry had an affair--we just reported that Drudge was claiming he had an affair." Of course it's all bullshit because the casual observer only hears that Kerry might have had an affair.
It's only about the sex or the lying when it comes to Democrats.
The past year, I've learned that it doesn't matter when Republicans have known male prostitutes in the White House on clandestine overnight visits...Gannon deserves his privacy!
I've also learned that lying a country into war doesn't matter...it was the right thing to do anyway!
The Republicans have found some truly scumass candidates for governor this year. Between this and Kilgore's disgusting ads against Kaine in VA...what a bunch of slimeball hacks.

Easy, they are resolute.

I hate it when I mess up a punch line.
Nobody who wants to run for office should ever have sex, not even by accident.
If the fundies are so numerous, why are liquor, gambling, prostitution, smoking and doctor shopping so popular? If we elimated these the economy would grind to a halt.
Look! Immigrant gay marriage!!!
And..and... taxes!!!

Well, as long as the Dems won’t fight back, this will continue.
It should have been the Dems out their on the news shows hounding Hyde and his pals for his hypocrisy.
I really do believe that if Bush pardons Libby, the Dems will just sit there, and not point out that Ford Pardoned Nixon, and Bush 1 pardoned Iran contra, and that the Chimp pardoning Libby is just the same old Republican corruption.
When David Brooks, on Friday's "The Newshour with Jim Lehrer", described Shield's description of how Bush & Co. lied us into Iraq as "McCarthyism", I nearly threw a beer bottle at the TV. This is the same David Brooks who "satirized", at some length on the Op-Ed page of the New York Times, Harry Reid as a tinfoil-hat wearing paranoic ("The Harry da Reid Code".)
Brooks calls Reid delusional, that's fine. Shields calls Bush a liar, that's McCarthyism.
Now that's fair and balanced. And remember, this was on PBS.
Forrester lives a couple of doors away from the most annoying coworker I have ever had. She is under the delusion that if he's elected she'll get some nice government "appointment". She'd be NJ's very own Michael Brown.
So dumb that 10 years out of law school she has apparently never prepared a motion, and she ran around one afternoon trying to figure out what she'd have to file to "squash" a subpoena.
Alas, no, she wasn't kidding.
I know capitol hill blue is not the most reliable, but this story was funny:
Bush, however, has dug his heels in on Rove. When a GOP strategist suggested last weekend that the President fire Rove, Bush exploded.
"You go to hell," he screamed at the strategist. "You can leave and you can take the rest of these lily-livered motherfuckers with you!" The President then stormed out of the room and refused to meet further with any other party leaders or strategists.

Pheonix Woman got there first, it is only Democrats who are smeared with sex scandals. Ronald Reagan was almost certainly a rapist, Old George Bush an adulterer, young George Bush has even more of a history.
It is TV that drives most of it, everything from FOX to C-SPAN. Brian Lamb's fraudulant operation was one of the big Drudge promoters during the Clinton years.
I sort of wish we could go back to when they couldn't say hell or show a double bed on TV.

This is all entirely out of hand. It degrades the whole culture to constantly delve into people's private lives like this. Fucking Rupert Murdoch - he has turned everything into Page 3. And the religious right eats it up! Loves it. Jumps into it with both feet and runs around in it.
We aren't all so much Larry Flynt now as we are Jim and Tammy Bakker.
Thank god. I've been trying to get on for the last hour.
My husband was raised in France, and he is continually amazed at how simultaneously obsessed and repulsed with sex this country is.
Bush twins carry on with cigarettes and long neck beers in there hands and that's OK. It's not a rumor, don't try that excuse. There a photographs.
There are no photos of either girl having sex, so let it pass.
I say this to New Jersey Republicans:
Keep pussy out of Tuesday's election.
It unsettles my morals.
The President then stormed out of the room and refused to meet further with any other party leaders or strategists.
I wish it was true, if the chimp had a total meltdown, then the executive branch would not cluster fuck up anything else.
There nothing that can't be made worse by having a chimp touch it.
Where is our good friend,Larry Flynt, when we need him?
lily-livered motherfuckers with you!" The President then stormed out of the room
who you callin' lily-livered - yella bellie? (see viet-nam, cindy sheeehan, and AA)
David Brooks really got it backwards, didn't he? I supposse there are conservatives in the administration too incompetent or too ideologically driven to read intelligence materials correctly, but it's become obvious that the Niger/Iraq story and several others are sheer fabrications. Perhaps Brooks should remember that McCarthy would wave a piece of paper claiming he had names and it was all nonsense.
When it came to aluminum tubes and the Niger/Iraq claims, it was the Bush administration that was playing the McCarthyite fear game and waving false documents.
I almost like how the Republicans have set themselves up on the moral pedestal. It is so much easier to knock them down that way.

Yet.
1st - Who else is afraid to refresh and lose blogger.
2d - Sometimes I think people are catching and that this kind of thing just isn't going to work anymore. Other times not. Who the fuck knows. As Clinton said in Austin, they will keep on with these ugly, divisive tactics as long as they work. And dems can't sit by saying please, be nice to me. Hasn't worked yet, and isn't gonna work now.
And just for good measure, now Kerry believes the election was stolen. Bob Shrum advised him not to put up too much of a fight at the time because Kerry would've beeen tagged as a sore loser. Apparently Edwards wanted to fight. So Kerry didn't fight because he was afraid of being called names, and Gore didn't fight for the good of the country.
Certainly has done us a lot of fucking good.
Fuckers.
And the religious right eats it up! Loves it. Jumps into it with both feet and runs around in it.
Well, of course. They have to have something to think about during their bouts of hushed, missionary style 2 minute lovemaking sessions.

Isn't Fetish a French word?
Tena,
I agree. The Puritans didn't do us any favors when they made pleasure such a big scary no-no. Americans are more juvenile about sex, and thus, more sex-obsessed than almost any other Western culture. Good grief. People have sex. Always have. Always will. If they don't scare the horses in the street, why should the rest of us care what other people are doing with their errogenous zones??? It affects me far, far less than when the president lies the country into a war.

More funnies from the capital hill blue site:
The war erupted into full-blown shout fests at Camp David this past weekend where decorum broke down in staff meetings and longtime aides threatened to quit unless Rove goes. Insiders say Chief of Staff Andrew Card now leads the anti-Rove legions and has told Bush that he wants out of the high-pressure job.
White House staff members say the White House is “like a wartime bunker” where shell-shocked aides hide from those who disagree with their actions and office pools speculate on how long certain senior aides will last.
Bush, whose obscenity-laced temper tantrums increase with each new setback and scandal, abruptly ended one Camp David meeting by telling everyone in the room to “go fuck yourselves” before he stalked out of the room.
Senior aides describe Bush as increasingly “edgy” or “nervous” or “unfocused.” They say the President goes from apparent coherent thought one moment to aimless rambles about political enemies and those who are “out to get me.”
Fetish, can be a good thing with two consenting adults.
I almost like how the Republicans have set themselves up on the moral pedestal. It is so much easier to knock them down that way.
In theory, you'd think so. But they've had an absolutely staggering number of sex and corruption scandals, and it's only just *beginning* to sink in that the "G" in GOP does *not* stand for Galahad.
Where is our good friend,Larry Flynt, when we need him?
He's playing draw poker in Gardena.
Can't tell me you don't have rednecks in Montana.
Oh, gawd, we've got the Montana Freemen, who are about as wacko as they come.
Plus Republicans, various shack churches, crazy back to the earth people with unsustainable plans. I could go on and on.

The hypocrisy is truly breathtaking. But, what is the explanation? If, as they say, sex sells, then surely it would sell just as well no matter which political party the adulterer belonged to. Short a conspiracy on the part of the media...oh. wait. never mind. I get it now.

But put it back in the Oval Office.
OK, so a different rant:
What is up with Bill Mahr? Recently, all the conservatives he has on the show are rude to the audience. They shout down the other guests. Last night Scarborough shouted down a woman, a past president of Ireland. And when the audience jeers said conservatives, Mahr shuushes the audience!!! WTF? Plus he stacks the guest lists with weenie liberals and overpowering loudmouth conservatives (I know, I know, are there any other kind??)
Just don't get fromage and frottage mixed up in a cheese shop.
So glad Kerry has joined the reality-based. Only one year and three days too late.
Fuck him. Let him run in '08. I'll stay home if he's the candidate - might as well; they'll still count the votes their way, and he'll just go home quietly when they announce he's lost.

I was able to refresh and not lose blogger, although I did hesitate.
I don't have the time or inclination to compare and contrast the sex lives of Demos vs Repubs, but I'm sure they're comparable.
But the Dems have to fight fire with fire. And then they have TO STAND THEIR GROUND.
Look how the rethugs hated it when Kerry pointed out that Cheney's daughter was gay. They got their knickers in a twist, but that is what you have to do.
Look what happened the other day when someone called Dick Morris on his visits to prostitutes. He shut up straight away. Morris has been out there spewing the right wing crap for years, and he needed to be taken down a peg or two.
All it needed was a few Dems to point out Dicks love of toe sucking.

Easy, you just lay it down in the parking lot and back the pickup over it 2,3 times.
Hecate - By making everything sensual into something totally sexual, the Puritans set the stage for almost 300 years of people seeing sex by way of double entendres. That has kept us at about 13, 14 years old in regard to the body, in cultural terms in America.
But what I'm talking about is the lack of politesse that runs through everything now. There used to be "gentlemen's agreements" about some things. That spawned abuses, I'm sure. But now that no such thing exists, we have this opposite abuse.
It's killing us - no one who isn't already crooked and used to this - like a jake leg televangelist - is going to want to run for office anymore.
I wouldn't advocate killing Shrum, but several patriots need to kidnap him and hold him incommunicado throughout the next election.
Although Shrum being a Republican plant *still* doesn't explain how he was allowed to fuck up, what, *eight* presidential campaigns?
At what point do you think it might, y'know, sink in that he's not very good?
If everyone lived off the grid with shot guns at the ready the economy would collapse. If everyone lived like the Duggars locked together in a three bedroom house with their 16 children the economy would collapse.
The lunatics who want private citizens to pay for their won road-paving and garbage removal? If they had their way there would be mayhem.
I notice that Colorado voted to get rid of the restricions on public spending. I bet that the Duggars are living off the government in some way. The pave-your-road people are not denying themselves of municipal roads.
And nobody can have sex but there are all these kids running around. What a fucked up country,
Galahad was Lancelot's son, IIRC. Lancelot got it on with Guinevere.

Nope, never. Not once. I believe he's like 0 for 9.
Keep in mind Shrum was the guy who couldn't get Bob Casey, Jr.--the most popular politician in the state of PA, mind you--elected governor.
He was the guy who couldn't a legitimate war hero elected over a cowardly fuckup last November.

There's a section of the Krugman column quoted in the Media Matters column that Atrios linked to this morning

Were the elections stolen? Or did they go to the ones who paid the most? It's an interesting free market question...
On the adultery, abortion... and so on statement of Atriot, we could make up a dictionary of allowed topics, starting with these and continuing with boobs, balls (withered)....
I opened a second Eschaton page and refreshed it a minute ago - no problem at all.

The Republicans play off the need for people to have scapegoats. It's fun to hate Democrats, and it uses up energy that could be spent fighting for better health care etc. Every moron thinks he can be a millionaire. And don't forget, if you go to church every Sunday you can be forgiven for any sins you might have committed Monday through Saturday.
It's OK for Republicans because they're not the enemy godless Democrats. If a Republican strays it's not a problem because the blood of the lamb washes him as clean as snow.

• Tena, regarding a comment you posted prior to the service interruption: I like the term "threadlice".
• As far as the topic, it does really seem to be the case that sexual scandal-- or perhaps I should say sexual matters that can trigger a scandal-- are a clear indication of media bias.
As noted above, in recent years the media has ratcheted up coverage of salacious stuff by stovepiping half-baked stories from dubious fringe sources, then easing the story into mainstream media by allowing respectable institutions to report the story about sources are peddling half-baked stuff. The beauty part is that the half-baked stuff comes in during the process, thus reinforcing its legitimacy and permitting still more outlets to circulate the sleaze.
The media would have it that a story grows its own legs, and reporters follow. It generally denies that it has the capability to screw the legs on, or even build a Trojan Horse.
And I guarantee that no ombudsman, spokesperson, or investigation will ever meaningfully confront the question of how the major media built more Trojan Horses during the Clinton/Starr era, but can't even bring a Trojan Sparkle Pony to the Gannon case.

thanx, i'll check it out, driftglass has a way with words. i of course was thinking of something a little more immediately visceral.
seriously, i think it's gonna take an argentinian style revolt. bush is not backing down, ever.
ethics classes, give me an f'n break.
It's bad enough that Kerry didn't fight the election fraud in Ohio, it's his assuming the position during the whole Swift Boat thing that drove me insane. Whatever genius decided that it was better to not reply and say "These are lies, funded by BushCo." 24/7--fuck policy wonkiness--that should have been his campaign until they shut the fuck up. Instead, it dominated the news for a solid month.
Idiots.
How about if we moved all the Bush supporters into certain areas and then fenced that off?
Don't move them here. We've got enough immigrants from the other Red States.

Bush is probably as lousy in the sack as he is at everything else.
MISERABLE FAILURE!
the opposition needs someone with balls, big balls, and intelligence. they are out there
the infuriating thing is, they are out there. have you ever seen rep maurice hinchey -- he's terrific. no bullshit, direct. i guess the reason he was so good is, since he's not a regular guest on tv, hasn't been coached to drabness by the dlc. check the lineup for tomorrow's program. i can tell you right now what the commentary is going to be.
if you really can stand it, read arianna's latest on how hillary's gonna sit tight, hoping all those dead americans will help boost her vote count. i really detest these people.

He was a State rep at the time. His office in Kingston was weloming and funky. He had a poster of Theodore Roosevelt on the wall. He should run for higher office. Mo's a man with moral fiber.

Powerful Government Accounting Office report confirms key 2004 stolen election findings
As a legal noose appears to be tightening around the Bush/Cheney/Rove inner circle, a shocking government report shows the floor under the legitimacy of their alleged election to the White House is crumbling.
The latest critical confirmation of key indicators that the election of 2004 was stolen comes in an extremely powerful, penetrating report from the General Accounting Office that has gotten virtually no mainstream media coverage.
The full GAO report is available here:
The SUV comment reminds me, last weekend in NJ I'm behind this Hummer H3. Looked brand new, right off the showroom floor. I heard of H2 but I didn't even know there was an H3. It's got a NJ Senate vanity plate, JP2. I'd love to know which idiot in the NJ Senate is driving it.

I finally shut him down later. He started changing the subject to science fiction. Seems he was a fan - which I do not get. I finally asked him if he believed in evolution. He really didn't want to have to say it, but he finally stammered out that he believed the Bible was the literal truth. I looked at him in disgust and wouldn't talk to him anymore.

Since N-M's BIL is too incoherent or inarticulate to offer a developed flawed dumb-ass rationale, I'll help the poor bastard out.
He could have said, "Well, Clinton's lie was really wrong because it arose from a despicable personal failing and wantonly damaged the very fabric of his family life.
But Dubya lied because he knew that he needed to take out Saddam-- that man killed his daddy-- to keep all of us safe. And yeah, maybe he couldn't justify his reasons as clearly as we'd like, but I'm sure there are a whole hell of a lot of reasons more than we'll ever know.
He's the President, and we have to trust and support him when he's doing his job and fighting terrorism and evil. Ours not to reason why.
Anyway, right or wrong, Dubya lied for unselfish Presidential reasons, but Slick Willie lied for selfish petty personal reasons.
It don't matter what the consequences are-- how bad the lie is depends on when it was told, and the reasons it was told. People dying and such don't come into it. Dubya comes out way ahead on this score."
Print this out for the BIL or have him write it on his palm if he can't memorize it. It's a little long, I guess-- but you know me. It's foolproof; I made it up as I went along but it's clear that my trollshunning ideals haven't shielded me from getting their drift.

I have been citing Kiplinger lately. I don't like at all what he claims:
The steady erosion in retiree health benefits will accelerate in the next year or soas more employers cut back to cope with costs. Millions more current and future retirees will lose their benefits. Already, only about 25% of firms offer them. A bare third of companies with 200 or more workers now provide health benefits to current retirees. Since 2002, 33% of big firms have scrapped benefits for future retirees. And many employers that have resisted the trend have upped the ante for retirees, dramatically boosting copay, deductibles, and premiums.

"Just saw a "I'm a democrat and I'm for Bloomberg" commercial w/(among others) Magic Johnson, Kathleen Turner, and Koch."
Koch. A "Democrat" who never saw a Democrat he liked or a Republican-fascist he didn't. Or whatever it is that he does to pretend he likes someone. He's a hateful, twisted, closet case. Get him drunk and Ann Coulter would probably try to fuck him.
spinoza ... Did you read it? It talks about Buckley as someone who "ruined" a burgeoning conservative movement. Viereck apparently wrote about the potential for Texas oil money to co-opt and corrupt the movement. He was especially worried about the radicalism that would come by harnessing the power of the "gullible mass base."

It's the "liberal media." The NYTs printed quotes from Corzines ex-wife. She said he let her down and she thinks he'll let NJ down. Why would the NYTs print that. She didn't say: He beat me and sodomized me with a loaded double barreled shotgun every tuesday. Here's the police reports and pictures.
The paper of record, the old gray lady, an American icon printed an angry ex-wife's bitter statements days before an election.
Why? Because the "liberal media" is controlled by criminals that will do whatever it takes to further their own interests. It doesn't matter that rove told them to or whoever might have. It's the fact the "liberal media" thinks any dem, anywhere, any time is "fair game." And if slamming a dem gets them something good in return they are more than happy to do it.
What about judy? What about the highest level executives at the times covering her blood soaked butt. They aren't running a paper. That's a criminal enterprise.
It's not just the executives, it's also the editors and reporters. How in the world could gannon/guckert sit in the middle of the white house press corps for 2 years and nobody says a word? Not one member of the "liberal media" made a peep. They knew something was up. Maybe not exactly what, but they knew something was rotten in the briefing room. They said not a word.
As long as the "liberal media" can do what they want this is not a free country. It's a corporate controlled banana republic.
The guy also went off on Christmas and got vehement about it.

New Jersey Public Radio & Television aired a report Friday night in which New Jersey Democratic Candidate for Governor Jon Corzine was grilled about whether a staffer he allegedly had an affair with -- had an abortion.
Wow, an abortion? If only those were legal to obtain, this wouldn't be a story at all.
Res-Yes, I found it remarkable that the conservative movement may have actually been kidnapped in the 1950s.
And the kind of redneck you have depends on where you are. The driving distance between town is so large, and getting larger with higher gas costs, that the state is not that homogeneous.
The regional areas that are populated with different types, are the
big college towns Missoula and Boseman (beginning to fill up with xtian facists according to one of my son's friends who goes there).
the Mountain areas, some that are pretty remote from anywhere. Lincoln Montana comes to mind here.
The eastern areas with Billings dominating things except for the Ranchers who also live in Eastern Montana. They are in their entirely own catagory.
Then there is Great Falls and the towns to the North of it on the "high line".
Northern Mountain towns around Flathead, Kalispell.

Birds spread Avian Flu, but only to sexually active people. In addition, migrating birds cross our borders at will and take away jobs and use up social services.
Many of the Moslem migrants, who began to appear in large numbers four decades ago, have not assimilated. Europe has long tolerated this, partly because of a belief in “Multiculturalism” and partly because Europe does not have a tradition of assimilation. This is in stark contrast to the United States, where the “melting pot,” while often operating more like a salad bowl, still results in far less ghettoization than is found in Europe. Another advantage America has is that, in many parts of the country, there are so many migrants that “everyone is a minority.” In Europe, homogeneity is preferred, and those who do not conform, are simply tolerated (and sometimes not) as “outsiders in residence.” That’s where the concept of “ghetto” came from in the first place. The ghetto is quite common the world over, but much less so in America. . . .

"They talk about cutting our heads off, my head off. They say some very vile, dirty things," [council member Ray] Tretheway [said].
The e-mails were sparked by a resolution -- passed by the council -- that calls on President George W. Bush to withdraw troops from Iraq....

Topic: Why are wingnuts wingnuts? This has bugged me for a while now. Everyone knows people like this, neighbor, in laws, cubicle mates, etc. No matter how badly Republican policies screw them, they vote for them anyway. I have decided these people are republicans the way I'm a red sox fan. The sox have tormented me for years and I keep going back. One disastrous season after another, one disastrous coach after another. Bring back Theo for crying out loud. They'll trade Manny too and I'll still count the days til pitchers and catchers report. The republicans are their team. That's it. It's unthinking and unreasoning and when you have crap coming from Fox News and whores like Deborah Orrin helping you justify your irrationality it's even easier for them.

i'd vote for john kerry again too. i don't much care about politics, except for the game it is, but i want a reasonable sane man (or woman, not hillary) in the office.

I'll tell y'all what, if Kerry would stand up now, talk about the evidence of the stolen election, and raise enough hell about it that something would start to change, I'd forgive him for not fighting it before. I need for someone in power to get serious about this.
At least John Kerry read, thought, actually liked people, and was said to be warm and engaging in private. He is a rational man, and while I did disagree with him on many things, I think he would have led, not ruled, and used something other than his gut instincts to guide him.

But the big difference(and Matt Taibbi pointed this out long before I did), is that when your team fucks up, fans get angry, they want to fire the coach, the manager, whatever player caused the fuckup.
And sports reporters are much more brutally honest than political reporters. If the home team did bad, they tell 'em about it.

Report Warned Bush Team About Intelligence Suspicions
By DOUGLAS JEHL
WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 - A high Qaeda official in American custody was identified as a likely fabricator months before the Bush administration began to use his statements as the foundation for its claims that Iraq trained Al Qaeda members to use biological and chemical weapons, according to newly declassified portions of a Defense Intelligence Agency document.
The document, an intelligence report from February 2002, said it was probable that the prisoner, Ibn al-Shaykh al-Libi, "was intentionally misleading the debriefers" in making claims about Iraqi support for Al Qaeda's work with illicit weapons.

Report Warned Bush Team About Intelligence Suspicions
By DOUGLAS JEHL
WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 - A high Qaeda official in American custody was identified as a likely fabricator months before the Bush administration began to use his statements as the foundation for its claims that Iraq trained Al Qaeda members to use biological and chemical weapons, according to newly declassified portions of a Defense Intelligence Agency document.
The document, an intelligence report from February 2002, said it was probable that the prisoner, Ibn al-Shaykh al-Libi, "was intentionally misleading the debriefers" in making claims about Iraqi support for Al Qaeda's work with illicit weapons.

Oooooo, trailer for my boyfriend George Clooney's new movie, "Syriana." Manola Dargis says it's very tough on the gov't.
Bring it on!

I used to date a guy who looked just like Clooney. Broke my heart into a million tiny little pieces, he did. So now I have a hard time watching Clooney flicks, which is a shame, because I really want to see Good Night, and Good Luck. And now Syriana. I'm going to have to get past this, I guess.

But the big difference(and Matt Taibbi pointed this out long before I did), is that when your team fucks up, fans get angry, they want to fire the coach, the manager, whatever player caused the fuckup.
True, but they're even more eager to tear down the other team. A Cleveland Browns tailgate is a good example. They criticize the hell out of their own team, but will start a fight with someone wearing another team's jersey. It's stupid, but it happens on a weekly basis. And defending Bush is about a higher purpose, in a wingnut's mind. That cult of personality bullshit. Criticism is not tolerated. So you get fanatics - like sports fans, but worse.

I remember seeing Michael Moore during his Stupid White Men book tour I think - he had a giant poster of Hillary and spent a good 15 minutes waxing rhapsodic about what a total package babe she is. I've only seen her in person once, during the '92 campaign, and she was plenty charismatic. Got a handshake and everything - well, more like a hand grab as Secret Service hustled her along the crowd.

ah sweet unregulated capitalism reduces everything to what sells...its so refreshing to be free of decency, taste, modesty, fairness....now we are all on the street selling what we have to the highest bidder...remember that great scene in "the handmaidens tale" when we find out all the cocktail waitresses and sex toys used to be social workers and teachers and so on....too bad the republicans didn't realize their daughters and sons and families would be put out on the street to "earn" with everyone else...

Wrong
I know. Its about time to do a new post about how The Iraq War was wrong. I think the problem is there's just to much information about there about the The Iraq War's wrongness. It's overwehlming at times(kind of swamped you know?). I do my diligence(web news search about Iraq news stories is good because its always a treasure trove of news stories that, each one of them in its own ways, prove The Iraq War was wrong) and look on blogs(Pangadon- always good), but sometimes the posts just doesn't come out. This is one of those sometimes.
Its like in Happenstance(French title: Le battingment du ailles de pappillon i.e. Bullet with butterfly wings (in French) where that one guy who's a liar all the time just sits and watches the bomsch fall on him in the metro. Its wrong and he knows it's wrong but he can't do to stop it(while the Algerian criminal guy is with rightous disbelief). Then later when he tells him mom excuse he pretends like he saved the day while a another guy was the one who really just sat there. But instead its him and in result, he can't get cafe with the Asain girl for some reason(didn't relly understand that part).
Well I"M not gonna to be like that guy. Maybe alittle more like Audrey Tataou character. She is sweet(as always) but a little rough edge due to how events transpire against her. I don't understand why she didn't just go for the restaruant guy at the beginning and then the whole movie would never have to happen. But I guess thats the magic of French cinema.
I'm just going off on a tangent here but there was one time I was in a situation like that(the liar guy). I was walking back home and this old guy (Gentleman) was on the sidewalk wanted help getting up. BOY didn't know what I to do. I started to help him (though rather heavy to pick all by myself) but then can you believe- this guy came along (twenty somethings- tan) and he was a actual paramedics already . He knew waht to do and stuffs( isn't that amazing!) so it all worked out. (I hi tailed out of there actuelly- wanted to get home in time to watch Rosie- OH Rosie we miss you. Waht other venue on TV is there nowadays for Broadways. It's just, a shame is all).
On that note I learned some AMAZING news last weekend. So I was there at the matiney with Dorit (Cyrus and I- Kind of on the out and outs on account I wouldn't help him paint. But seriously waht kind of favor is that). I've mentioned Dorit before- also in Lohanim, ect. Anyways we wanted to go see Prime (Merrill Streep helarious BWT- no joke). It was pretty good although rather hard to picture Uma as 37 (still looks fabulous). But anwyays. Guess waht was one of the previews?
I'll set the stage for you. Ok so the preview starts and its New York(guessing). Lots of multi cultural people. Furniture. Music. So, you know in the back of my head I'm already thinking "OGM- this is almost like the setting for Rent". And lo the behold(cut a long story short) the unmesta

I never dreamed in a million years it would get to the big screen(to much bureacratic red tape, plus I figured the stolid/staid mainstream movie big business would NEVER go for it).

Indightment timing- the crime? OR part of the coverup?
Hav eyou noticed taht nobody seems to be talking about the wrongness of The Iraq War lately. Its like ``to quiet'' out there to paraphrase that movie were they said that. This got me to thinking. You know that indightment thing with Liddy. Why did the indightments happen NOW. Waht kind of timing is that. Could it be is possible, that it's was all a setup from the beginning? They get their man Fitzgerard(maybe he's a dhinger or maybe they just have somethiing on him) to indight someone at the right calculated time to destract everyone from the wrongness of The Iraq War. Boom, he does, and what do you know. The Iraq War's wrongness off the radar screen . Its Macavellan (and menadacious) but that's how they operate is it not? Would you put it past them? I'm almost think Libby is the mastermind of the whole thing. Think about it nothing else make's sense. (Also helps explain why not Rove- Rove was the mastermind o fthe whole thing probably)
I think we got to get this out there.
UPDATE: OGM I just thought about this post in the bathroom and realized how stupid a post is this. Sorry folks this was not one of my betters. I was looking at the indightments from the indightments side of things (only) as if they don't prove The Iraq War was wrong in there own right. But DUH they do(duh). Gad how could I miss that Somehow I just plumb forgot to connect the indightments to the wrong war side of things(like how they ultimately come from Joe Wilson who proved the Teh Iraq War was wrong- I just forgot to make that connection in my mind). RELLY stupid of me. Speaking of Joe Wilson proving the Iraq war was wrong, can you believe that was over two years ago now(his editoral). Man how time flies. LOTS of changes in my life since then(I was still eating lots of dairy back then for one, which now seems almost unbelieavble to me)
But anwyays guys about the forgetting about the (mind numingly obvious) link between Libby lieing about waht he told Matt Copper(STILL steamed about htat BWT) and The Iraq War being was wrong, sorry cuz usuelly I'm more on the ball about these thing's. Just goes to show you got to stay on your toes to keep up a bonaphide blog like this and probably to get to full-on pundit status I'm going to need to learn to take the research/analyses side more seriously(I'm still learning- only been at this alittle over 1.5 years- its a process so bare with me pls). Missing something obvious like that, its a rookie mistake and I should be past that by now. Just goes to show were all fallable I guess. Been a humbling day all the around actuelly(traffic court- the judge didn't overturn my ticket dispite even though I made a EXECALLENT argument against it. Probalby a dhinger ``law an order`` type. Gees we can't get away from them nowadays).
neil last nite on conan. he ain't a beauty, but what an awesome musician. Dolly is holding up well, i'd hit it. ohh, and emmy lou was on with neil, what a babe.
Emmylou is a babe. Another huge talent. I saw her live on the "At the Ryman" tour about 12 or 13 years ago. Fantastic.

Gearing up for '008
Did you guys catch how Albirght nailed it the other day. Which is bittersweet in a way because it just makes you think, dang, waht if the Democrats were in charge instead of the current crop of corruptions we got there now? Are troops would be home in beds safe and sound and Iraq free from are obnoxious meddling, The Iraq War nothing but a bad memory, everything back as it was(if only).
Anyways, I got inspired alittle by Albright's forcefulness on the issues(DANG shes good on the issue) because by the time '008 rolls around (sooner then you think) we gotta be ready. Its about putting are IDEAS (which the dhingers have none) in front of the Americans people. So here's the bumber sticker which is the winner if you ask me(this is assuming the current trend as is looks now, which is Hillery on the top of the ticket and Brock O'Bannon for Veep; can change for other name(for Veep) if necessary):

I never thought I'd be writing this, but yet.... I need to tell NTodd....
"Dear NTodd Forum..."
I never thought I'd be writing this, but yet
She was visiting her brother, my roommate, and while he was at the liquor store, picking up a keg for tonite's frat party, we were sitting on the couch and the talk naturally turned to sex...
That kind of "never thought I'd be writing this"?
"RaDICK-L Man" cut-and-pastes truth to power
Um, no.
But it's Saturday night, and the dateless are spending time here.
evening, all! raise a glass and toast my mom's new faculty job, our new house, and my fabulous dinner that i cooked in celebration. shepard's pie is pretty good, for such a simple rec.
do we have a new troll, or just someone doing some really good drugs?
Ah,Emmylou.
Gorgeous doesn't get any more
gorgeous.
Mr. Simels,
You are my new best friend!!!
You think that I could include that in my renters insurance claim (it's 20 bucks)?
It's 'contents', so yes, you can - assuming you're filing a claim for other items? Are you over the deductible?
If you press me, I will share, but I, I really, really need to speak to NTodd first....
really good drugs?
Bad drugs, Kalispell meth or just huffing gasoline.
Withnail,
Yeah, he was horrible in the debates and then he ran some really nasty ads saying that Kaine wouldn't enforce the death penalty on Hitler. He's now beating up on immigrants.
You sure about that? I'm pretty sure they can; it's just a lot slower.
I'll try it...
Thank you, my fellow owl hooter.
(see a few threads below)
Share!
Kalispell meth? Chuy, boy, you are localising yourself something awful! You think somebody here outside of Kalispell even knows where Kalispell is? I mean, let's talk about Sweetgrass instead, or Dillon! There are people here who've never been farther north than Houston!
. He's now beating up on immigrants.

Thank you, my fellow owl hooter.
No problem. You should know right away; the power icon will do its little recharging animation.
Fight the power!!!
chidyke,
Congrats! Two trolls, one pretending to be GWPDA and another who's so clever he can cut and paste.
My sister lived in Polson for a few years. I didn't make it out there to visit, though, which bummed me out.
evening, all! raise a glass and toast my mom's new faculty job, our new house, and my fabulous dinner that i cooked in celebration. shepard's pie is pretty good, for such a simple rec.
Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
And make sure you make some extra gravy 'cause tomorrow that shepherd's pie is gonna want it!
Yeah, he was horrible in the debates and then he ran some really nasty ads saying that Kaine wouldn't enforce the death penalty on Hitler. He's now beating up on immigrants.
Sounds like a heckuva guy. I'm surprised he decided at the last minute to have Bush appear with him. I'm not sure who that's going to win over.
OK. Cincinnatti meth, same difference. Made by mouth breating fundy skinheads, in any case.

Pretty sure that *is* GWPDA, and she's just being chuy, er, coy.
my fellow owl hooter
(perks up) Owls?
If it was a troll, it'd be all, "Arthur got hit by a truck and I have cancer! Gotta go!"
Are you over the deductible?
Not by a long shot.
GWPDA,
OK, I'll bite. What's going on? I can tell you're just dying to tell this story to someone.
What's going on, or what giant event happened?
i think kalispell is in montana.

Isn't that I'm Quimby, Gambit!

Tell me about Bible Bill Aberhart

Dinner time here; see y'all later.

Yes. I know this because someone hot at my college was from there.

I believe you are correct
Bill Kristol, 11/14/2005: "After all, the bipartisan Silberman-Robb commission found no evidence of political manufacture and manipulation of intelligence."
Silberman-Robb Commission Report, 3/31/05: "[W]e were not authorized to investigate how policymakers used the intelligence assessments they received from the Intelligence Community. Accordingly, while we interviewed a host of current and former policymakers during the course of our investigation, the purpose of those interviews was to learn about how the Intelligence Community reached and communicated its judgments about Iraq's weapons programs--not to review how policymakers subsequently used that information."
Bill ... Bill, Bill, Bill ...

No, no! Black iris bulbs, black iris bulbs, it's me!
It's just....
Well.
I was outside in the side yard, pulling out some old bolted lettuce and cleaning up some iris, tidying up things generally. I'd watered the new little yellow crook neck squash which are blossoming very nicely, and pulled some fresh green onions - then planted a bunch more lettuce seed.
And my pants fell off.
I took a step toward the orange tree, and, like my Grandmama during her fateful championship basketball game in 1910, when the elastic to her bloomers broke, in front of the entire Salem High School audience, there went my pants. Slid all the way down.
It was - shocking....
Eli--are we going to test drive 'Avalanche'?

Well, Toshi-San flaked on me for a frustrating number of times, so since I was planning to drop off a check to the landlord anyway, I asked him if I could borrow his awesome Dell Inspiron 6000 with widescreen display (product placement plug, heh). He rarely uses it, so he turned it right over. In return, I'll be giving him a notebook bag that I won as swag at work this week. Sweet deal, eh?
.
Owls?
Oh, I got dissed by some clod (who chose to ban himself, again). And he used some stink that I should join the GOP cause I question the Dem party as a whole.
Eli--are we going to test drive 'Avalanche'?
I suppose so. I don't have high hopes, but you never know.
It was - shocking....
Oh my.

that sounds dirty
good night moonbats

heh. busted.
It was - shocking....
Now you know how NTodd feels most of the time.
GWPDA,
OK, it's really you. But this is what happens when you come home from work and don't eat. I think you need to go get a ruben right away. And some fries. And a malted milk shake. We can't have you withering away to nothing!
It was - shocking....
Was this photoblogged, or could we get a re-enactment?
I asked him if I could borrow his awesome Dell Inspiron 6000 with widescreen display (product placement plug, heh).
I have an Inspiron 9100 - I deliberately got an old one from the Outlet so it would have a *real* processor (3.2GHz), not one of those wimpy powersaver ones.
i apologize for questioning tha authenticity of GWDPA
600th!!!!
i have an idea that i want to develop further. peeps: tell me your stories of the movie remake. like, "the thing" or "the blog" or "cape fear."
what rocks, what sucks, and why?
i got my motorcycle to run. took me all day and it's only running on one cylinder. it's a good thing i am not a professional mechanic. i would earn about $5 a year.
I should join the GOP cause I question the Dem party as a whole.
Why have that toothache looked at when you can just get dentures?
like, "the thing" or "the blog" or "cape fear."
Heh heh heh...
Eli sez:
I liked Jill "Kissed A Girl" Sobule's t-shirt: "*My* Bush would make a better president".
The divine watertiger has the t-shirt. And I have the photos to prove it.

Ooo, where? And how did I miss this?
(Or did I just forget somehow?)
Well, it could happen to you.
Well, it could happen to you.
It could happen to me.
It could happen to everyone eventually.
what rocks, what sucks, and why?
One rule to avoid is doing a shot by shot remake, e.g., Psycho.
