GravatarContinuing topic from previous thread -- al Hurra For Everything, the US propaganda station for the middle east, is being investigated for procurement abuse. It may be linked to the repuke puppet at PBS at Tomlinson and some shady Lebanese types that were put in charge of the local operations of al Hurra for Everything. Turd Blossom and Man Hands also implicated.

GravatarThe Financial Times had more today on al Hurra for Everything, it seems like the FT thinks a newspaper should do actual reporting:

Al Hurra, the US's Arabic- language satellite television station, which is under investigation for possible financial irregularities, announced yesterday the resignation of its president, Bert Kleinman, for family reasons. The Virginia-based station, which started broadcasting last year, said Mr Kleinman had told the Broadcasting Board of Governors, a federal agency, in July of his wish to return to Los Angeles once a new president was found. The House of Representatives subcommittee on oversight and investigations is looking into al Hurra's financial affairs and programming and will hold a hearing next week.

The PBS puppet Tomlinson is drawn in because he's on the broadcasting board of governors, which oversees the station. APparently the investigation is looking at e-mails that went between him and Turd Blossom. And the overall boss of the station is the public diplomacy person at the State Dept i.e. Man Hands.

GravatarEvening batses! I thought you might enjoy my latest column:

IT would be a compelling story," Patrick Fitzgerald said of the narrative Scooter Libby used to allegedly mislead investigators in the Valerie Wilson leak case, "if only it were true."

"Compelling" is higher praise than any Mr. Libby received for his one work of published fiction, a 1996 novel of "murder, passion and heart-stopping chases through the snow" called "The Apprentice." If you read the indictment, you'll see why he merits the critical upgrade. The intricate tale he told the F.B.I. and the grand jury - with its endlessly clever contradictions of his White House colleagues' testimony - is compelling even without the sex and the snow.

The medium is the message. This administration just loves to beguile us with a rollicking good story, truth be damned. The propagandistic fable exposed by the leak case - the apocalyptic imminence of Saddam's mushroom clouds - was only the first of its genre. Given that potboiler's huge success at selling the war, its authors couldn't resist providing sequels once we were in Iraq. As the American casualty toll surges past 2,000 and Veterans Day approaches, we need to remember and unmask those scenarios as well. Our troops and their families have too often made the ultimate sacrifice for the official fictions that have corrupted every stage of this war.

If there's a tragic example that can serve as representative of the rest, it is surely that of Pat Tillman, the Arizona Cardinals defensive back who famously volunteered for the Army in the spring after 9/11, giving up a $3.6 million N.F.L. contract extension. Tillman wanted to pay something back to his country by pursuing the enemy that actually attacked it, Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda. Instead he was sent to fight a war in Iraq that he didn't see coming when he enlisted because the administration was still hatching it in secret. Only on a second tour of duty was he finally sent into Taliban strongholds in Afghanistan, where, on April 22, 2004, he was killed. On April 30, an official Army press release announcing his Silver Star citation filled in vivid details of his last battle. Tillman, it said, was storming a hill to take out the enemy, even as he "personally provided suppressive fire with an M-249 Squad Automatic Weapon machine gun."

Gravatar Mark Shields who is the honorable decent guy who doesn't want to call Bobo's lies

An honorable man would not let lies go unansewred. Mark Sheild is I'm-not-a-liberal-but-I-play-one-on-TV.


GravatarIt would be a compelling story, if only it were true. Five weeks after Tillman's death, the Army acknowledged abruptly, without providing details, that he had "probably" died from friendly fire. Many months after that, investigative journalists at The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times reported that the Army's initial portrayal of his death had been not only bogus but also possibly a cover-up of something darker. "The records show that Tillman fought bravely and honorably until his last breath," Steve Coll wrote in The Post in December 2004. "They also show that his superiors exaggerated his actions and invented details as they burnished his legend in public, at the same time suppressing details that might tarnish Tillman's commanders."

This fall The San Francisco Chronicle uncovered still more details with the help of Tillman's divorced parents, who have each reluctantly gone public after receiving conflicting and heavily censored official reports on three Army investigations that only added to the mysteries surrounding their son's death. (Yet another inquiry is under way.) "The administration clearly was using this case for its own political reasons," said Patrick Tillman, Pat Tillman's father, who discovered that crucial evidence in the case, including his son's uniform and gear, had been destroyed almost immediately. "This cover-up started within minutes of Pat's death, and it started at high levels."

His accusations are far from wild. The Chronicle found that Gen. John Abizaid, the top American officer in Iraq, and others in his command had learned by April 29, 2004, that friendly fire had killed their star recruit. That was the day before the Army released its fictitious press release of Tillman's hillside firefight and four days before a nationally televised memorial service back home enshrined the fake account of his death. Yet Tillman's parents, his widow, his brother (who served in the same platoon) and politicians like John McCain (who spoke at Tillman's memorial) were not told the truth for another month.

Why? It's here where we find a repeat of the same pattern that drove the Valerie Wilson leak a year earlier. Faced with unwelcome news - from the front, from whistle-blowers, from scandal - this administration will always push back with change-the-subject stunts (like specious terror alerts), fake news or, as with Joseph Wilson, smear campaigns. Much as the White House was out to bring down Mr. Wilson because he threatened to expose its prewar hype of Saddam's supposed nuclear prowess, so the Pentagon might have been out to delay or rewrite a story that could be trouble when public opinion on the war itself was just starting to plummet.


GravatarIronically, this particular talking point may very well be rendered moot by a NY Times article tomorrow, at least I am hopeful.

Still, I think it wise to have another glass of beer.


GravatarIt was an election year besides. Tillman's death came after a month of solid bad news for America and the Bush-Cheney re-election campaign alike: the publication of Richard Clarke's book about pre-9/11 administration counterterrorism fecklessness, the savage stringing up of the remains of American contractors in Falluja, the eruption of Sunni and Shiite insurgencies in six Iraqi cities, the first publication of illicit photos of flag-draped coffins. In the days just after Tillman's death, "60 Minutes II" first broadcast the Abu Ghraib photos, Ted Koppel read the names of the war's fallen on "Nightline," and the Pentagon's No. 2, the Iraqi war architect Paul Wolfowitz, understated by more than 200 the number of American casualties to date (722) in an embarrassing televised appearance before Congress.

Against this backdrop, it would not do to have it known that the most famous volunteer of the war might have been a victim of gross negligence or fratricide. Though Tillman himself was so idealistic that he refused publicity of any kind when in the Army, he was exploited by the war's cheerleaders as a recruitment lure and was needed to continue in that role after his death. (Even though he was adamantly against the Iraq war, according to friends and relatives interviewed by The Chronicle.)

"They blew up their poster boy," Patrick Tillman told The Post; he is convinced that "all the people in positions of authority went out of their way to script" the fake narrative (or, as he puts it, "outright lies") that followed. Pat Tillman's mother, Mary Tillman, was offended to discover that even President Bush wanted a cameo role in this screenplay: she told The Post that he had offered to tape a memorial to her son for a Cardinals game that would be televised shortly before Election Day. (She said no.)

In an interview with The Arizona Republic, Mary Tillman added: "They could have told us upfront that they were suspicious that it was a fratricide but they didn't. They wanted to use him for their purposes. It was good for the administration. It was before the elections. It was during the prison scandal. They needed something that looked good, and it was appalling that they would use him like that."

Appalling but consistent. The Pentagon has often failed to give the troops what they need to fight the war in Iraq, from proper support in manpower and planning at the invasion's outset to effective armor for battle to adequately financed health care for those who make it home. But when it comes to using troops in the duplicitous manner that Mary Tillman describes, the sky's the limit.


GravatarRepublican corruption could not exist to the extent it does today without the cooperation of the media. The lying media whores should be viewed as the enemy as much as the official wingnuts themselves are, and I really think an organized campaign should be started to take down and discredit the worst offenders. The Media Matters website is a start in that direction, but it is set up to list individual media transgressions as they occur. I think what would make it a more powerful tool against media corruption is if they kept a comprehensive catalogue and scorecard of the lies and distortions of each journalist and pundit with a webpage devoted to each. If one was able to see in one place documented evidence that Bobo lied in print or on TV several dozen times, that would be one hell of an indictment against him.


GravatarYeah, you haven't really come up with a Kuiper yet.

Yes, this is all very Hubbling. I shuttle to think that I've lost my muse, though orbit I'm just going through a stage. Maybe some vino will give me a booster.


GravatarPat Tillman's case is itself a replay of the fake "Rambo" escapades ascribed to Pfc. Jessica Lynch a year earlier, just when Operation Iraqi Freedom showed the first tentative signs of trouble and the Pentagon needed a feel-good distraction. As if to echo Mary Tillman, Ms. Lynch told Time magazine this year, "I was used as a symbol." But the troops aren't just used as symbols for the commander in chief's political purposes. They are also drafted to serve as photo-op props and extras, whether in an extravaganza like "Mission Accomplished" or a throwaway dog-and-pony show like the recent teleconference in which the president held a "conversation" with soldiers who sounded as spontaneous as the brainwashed G.I.'s in "The Manchurian Candidate."

As Mr. Bush's approval rating crashes into the 30's, he and the vice president are so desperate to wrap themselves in khaki that on the day of the Libby indictment, they took separate day trips to mouth the usual stay-the-course platitudes before military audiences. If this was a ploy to split the focus of cable news networks and the public, it failed. Perhaps Scooter Libby is hoping that a so-called faulty-memory defense will save him from jail, but too many other Americans are now refreshing their memories of what went down in the plotting and execution of the war in Iraq. What they find are harsh truths and buried secrets that even the most compelling administration scenarios can no longer disguise.

Most Americans haven't got the
brains god gave the common ice cube.


GravatarThanks, Mr. Rich.

and well said.


GravatarIs it just me, or am I right in thinking that America ain't buying Assrocket (and the rest of the Repuke's) shit any more?

I read quite a bit across the spectrum - It ain't just you thinking much of America is waking up like a bear from hibernation. And we all know that waking bear is awfully hungry.

An aside, assrocket is like a frothing at the mouth rabid yapping lap dog.


Gravatar"Bush team focused the country on the real choices before it"

No, that's fucked up.

John Kerry, John Edwards, Howard Dean, Wes Clark, Dennis Kucinich Al Sharpton & Carole Mosely Braun- they tried to focus the country on the choices before it.

And all the while the corporate media said, "Why are these foolish Dems engaging in Bush Hate when He is the Most Beloved Wartime Preznit?"


GravatarBo--that's been the problem, trying to convince people to get out and vote. Ahnuld is counting on low turnout. We need to blow that out of the water.


Gravatarsallyh: Jeffraham--mine's a 2001 model, my Toshiba, Satellite 1805-S204. 1ghz Celeron processor.

Yeah, I know it's old and lame, but it's still on extended warranty, and I like My Own Stuff.


Mine's about a year younger, w/1.5GHz Celeron (it was all I wanted to spend, seeing as how I bought it in protest to HCA telling me they wouldn't give me use of a notebook to use in one of the "quiet rooms" on those tight-deadline projects; only planned to use Dreamweaver and Photoshop, and access the net with it, anyway, so the Celeron was okay for all that). It was $900, after $100 rebate. Man, that would get me a Dell of a Dell these days.

GravatarDoes PBS care that they employ a liar?

Sure they care.

PBS is run by a solid block of radical rightwingers today.

Bobo is perfectly suited for the new, improved, conservative Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

GravatarFollow up: Johnny Cash Live at San Quentin will be rebroadcast tomorrow:

Sun., Nov. 6 5:00 PM ET/PT

on CMTV.

It's worth enduring the scary cmtv promos between commercials. Great concert performance by Cash and some interesting behind the scenes at life inside the prison. Interviews with prisoners and the guards and wardens.


Gravatar
Bobo Brooks was spewing this crap on the Newshour last night, too. Does PBS care that they employ a liar?


They also had PNAC neocon hack Randy Scheunemann up against David Corn to discuss the Wilkerson allegations (David, by the way, please learn to dress yourself like a middle-aged adult for public appearances).

Scheunemann lied and spun just as fast and as hard as he could. One claim of his stood out: that the Czech government has never retracted its assertion that Mohammed Atta met with an Iraqi intelligence handler in Prague before the 9/11 attacks.

Well, no, the Czechs have not in fact retracted it. So technically Scheunemann isn't lying. But everyone else has long since concluded that the Czech intelligence service made an elementary mistake, and confused Atta with another individual by the same name.

That lousy tradecraft helped lay the groundwork for a war that's very unpopular with the local electorate -- little wonder that the Czech intelligence service is in no hurry to fess up to their error.

http://tinyurl.com/7zttm

One could complain to the new PBS ombudsman, Michael Gettler, but what's the point? They'll just have on another GOP think-tank shill to spew distortions in Scheunemann's place.

Same shit, different day, same Soviet-style state media masquerading as "balanced coverage".

GravatarJeffraham--this one is for writing papers, surfing the web, and chatting with youse guys. I've got a top of the line HP Pavillion 2003 for work stuff.


Gravatarsaw bobo and shields a few nights ago on the regular pbs evening news thing. bobo got all wound up about how it is completely outrageous to think that anyone manipulated info to get us to war with iraq. he really tried to be tough and manly. it was quite funny. like watching mr. peepers try to take the football coach to task and ends up being hung up on an equipment hook in the locker room with hot stuff in his shorts...


Gravatareven President Bush wanted a cameo role in this screenplay: she told The Post that he had offered to tape a memorial to her son for a Cardinals game that would be televised shortly before Election Day. (She said no.)

holy shit i didn't know that. what a sick fuck'n pig. well, i did know the second statement.


GravatarRes--seems to me Bill Kristol doesn't understand a lot of things. Anyone who can say Bush has been a pretty good president simply Does Not Get It. - sallyh
Kristol's the bloody diapaison bank of the right wing wurlitzer. He knows exactly what he's doing. He'd say that about a horse if the wingers put one in the house. Hell, he's saying it with only half of one there.

One could complain to the new PBS ombudsman, Michael Gettler, but what's the point?


And before anyone invokes the Eschaton ombudsman, I'm perfectly aware that the gentleman is, in fact, Michael *Getler*.

My fingers are often faster than my cerebrum at this hour. Time to go find a stiff drink so that at least I've got a valid excuse for it.

Gravatarether's here?


BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!


GravatarWhat's all this fuss about truth? We have a world to run and the truth has very little part to play in that job.

No let's go parse Wilson original article for signs of less than rigorous truth telling.

Intellegent design has no actual theory of how it would work nor any experements forthcomming to even begin to form one. It must be taught as a science if for no other reason than so many people beieve it.

While global warming has been observed and theories offered as to its cause, greenhouse gas buildup, it's all a pack of lies by alarmist econ nut jobs at worst. At best it's an uproven theory requireing absolute certainty before a response might be considered.

See how it works.

LOL! From your mouth to the gods' ears.


GravatarJeffraham--the university actually purchased a big chunk of the Pavillion, so I shouldn't complain, since it does have massive amounts of disk space and a fast processor (what you want for stats apps), but it has had its issues.


Gravatarkarma, I disagree.

My whitest-guy-in-America boss, who over the course of the last 10 months or so I've learned is not very bright, is a self-described Republican though I don't think he really follows all that closely; he probably just believes that he pays less taxes when they're in control, whether this is right or wrong.

He made a comment when the Schiavo stuff was going on that he "considers himself a Republican" but was concerned about them getting involved in something like that.

Last week, he said, "I don't know much of anything about this DeLay guy, but man, he sure looks like a crook."

I made a post last night that went unremarked (wahhh! doing my Frist impersonation) about how the Dems really need to get their shit together in regards to learning how to deal with GOP "debate" tactics. Such as pointing out people are being rude when they interrupt and shout over you. That it suggests their parents failed to teach them manners or whatever. Because...there's a reason why they do it, and that reason is to keep anyone from the other side from voicing a detailed litany of facts strung together in a chronological and/or comprehensible narrative. Because when that happens, even the dummies can see some truth.

That's why my boss has noticed DeLay. He's gotten an actual narrative, via the media, about what it is that DeLay is charged with doing, and the facts that support that charge.

Even dummies can be smarter when they are given good information.


GravatarA year from now, Brooks will have

Already did that, which is why he writes the drivel that he does.

GravatarThe media is the biggest issue facing the US today.

In a nutshell, that's it. Fix the media, and the media will fix the rest, one exposed lie, one deposed crooked politician at a time.
And hey, maybe an honest media will spontaneously decide that Americans don't need to spend a billion dollars to elect a Preznit, and donate free air time to any candidates that can get on the ballot.
OK, that's a bit much...


Gravatarthank you Frank Rich


GravatarSpork--never, ever drink Gluck. Ever.


GravatarDavid Brooks is not "employed" by PBS. He probably gets little more than token remuneration by the Newshour for offering "political analysis." He is always countered by Mark Shields, Tom Oliphant, or someone else who offers the more liberal point of view. The Newshour never counters him with a shrinking violet. Shields more than held his own with him in that broadcast. It is understood by everyone who watches that both are engaging in commentary, not reporting. By all means, criticize Brooks for his analysis and repetition of the standard talking points, but don't criticize the Newshour just because they include his point of view. The real story from Friday's broadcast of the Newshour was the interview of Lawrence Wilkerson, which directly preceded the Shields/Brooks segment. It was devastating in what it said about Cheney and the Bush Administration. Frankly, that should have been the focus of your post.


GravatarMy customer experience with HP PC systems (as opposed to the bigger iron -- HP-UX servers, an' whatnot) has been less than stellar... that's all I should say.

My consumer experience has not been so hot either.

But my current PC was clearly put together by someone who knew what they were doing!

Entergy did not expect to be able to restart its two gas-fired power plants in New Orleans until summer 2006.

GravatarSpeaking of illogical right-wing lies, Josh Marshall catches a new bullshit talking point being floated by Winger Central:

Bill Kristol, 11/04/2005: "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."

Josh goes on to ask his readers to send in further examples of this rapidly-spreading TP.


GravatarSounds to me like the Bushlickers have hit the hands-in-their-ears-la-la-la-can't-hear-you phase of their implosion.

They really think they can keep that ip for 3 more years, eh? Good luck with that, wingnuts.


GravatarBoth are critical mechanisms of accountability.

GravatarBushy McHitler Chimp Causes Peaceful Frenchies to Riot

Violence in France Enters 10th Night
Security Tightens as Riots Spread Across the Country
By JOHN LEICESTER, AP


ACHERES, France (Nov. 6) - Youths armed with gasoline bombs fanned out from Paris' poor, troubled suburbs to shatter the tranquility of resort cities on the Mediterranean, torching scores of vehicles, nursery schools and other targets during a 10th straight night of arson attacks.

GravatarWhat about Onion Rolls

How do you tell an onion roll from a bialy, or are they the same thing?


Gravataryou people don't know what the hell you're talking about. glogg (swedish spelling) is the nectar of the gods.

It's not nectar, but it's not bad on a cold winter afternoon. Gets you drunk really fast, before all the eating starts. You take several bottles of the cheapest red wine you can find, heat them up to near-boiling (minus the bottles), add whole cloves and a cinnamon stick and ginger first, and then dole out into glasses with almonds at the bottom. So you get all scared when you find the almonds at the bottom of the mug and think they are your teeth.


Gravatar So what's up with Blugger? I was-a gonna post something on my lame blugs, but if there's been bluggery, I'm not gonna bother.

Oh, nothing. Just my old site is on Blugger (Glugger?) and for some reason when I copy a link, it adds some redundant shit that I oft forget to cut out.


GravatarHow come HE isn't out on some hot date with a major babe?

GravatarCome on now. I watched the likeable, mild mannered, reasonable, Brooks on the News Hour last night too. His demeanor was warm and inviting. I would say very reasonable. You just gotta love his voice of reason. Although he did use the word "insane" quite a bit last night when anyone brought up the idea of pre war intelligence being manipulated. I think it is best to focus on his like-a-bility rather than his credibility when ingesting his sweet tasting poison. That is why I think Bobo is there. To be the calm voice of likeable reason for the very unreasonable insane things that are happening now.

GravatarWhat about Onion Rolls

How do you tell an onion roll from a bialy, or are they the same thing?
Capital J


No, biallys are a lot closer to the bagel school of bread. An onion roll is a bread roll infused and covered with onions bitsies, but rather than being boiled, it is baked.

Real delis in New Mexico? Well, sorta. Refer to Olav Glad and Heartburned. But definitely none in Pincher Creek, Alberta. There, we got very good kung pao shrimp. And BIG beef parts.

GravatarI think I was 20 before I had my first beer.

When I lived in Ohio, they used to have a low beer/high beer distinction, until Reagan blackmailed the states into making 21 the universal drinking age. When I turned 19 (when I would've legally been able to buy "low beer"), my mom bought be a six pack, which I brought next door to my 60yo neighbor, Bill (who used to keep my spare house key when I was a latchkey kid). He thought it was the funniest fucking thing, what with my shiteating grin as I brought him booze. We sat on his front porch drinking Coors, watching the traffic go by. Good times.

Apparently. I remember a lot of local beers in Ohio, Hudepohl, Wiedemann's... in fact one of the local channel's late news was sponsored by Wiedemann's, with newscasters Don Wayne and a young Phil Donohue.


Gravatar NTodd is older than all pants.

Back in my day, we didn't have pants. We had loincloths.


GravatarI'm telling Molly.

Oh, she knows.

Weren't you supposed to be in Philly for a show?

Yeah, but I can't afford it, timewise or financially. Oh well. I hope they think of me warmly anyway.


GravatarThen how do you explain your..."condition", Mrs. Knocked Up Irish Lass?

I developed new vices, duh.


I love NYMary.


GravatarCome now. That's not the media's job. The media's job is to report what one side thinks, and what the other side thinks, and then the truth is somewhere in the middle.

Like one side says "slavery is bad" and the other side says "slavery is good." So that means, slavery is okay.

Or "we should nuke the middle east" and "violence is never the answer." So we should nuke some countries, not others.


GravatarThen how do you explain your..."condition", Mrs. Knocked Up Irish Lass?

I developed new vices, duh.


I should say. Is the lout still drunk and watching Miami? Do you still need holding?


GravatarI'm 39 tomorrow.

So you're heading into your forties in Europe already!


GravatarThat'll be 39 and, what, 4 months?

And change, yeah.


GravatarThis thread is not long enough for me to go into all the drugs I've done... (and dealt)

Reformed, too, of course, just like NYMary.


GravatarNYMary, you remind me, I must write a nice note to Case Western telling them to go to hell.... They were very sweet tho.

GravatarI'm 39 tomorrow.

Happy Bday!


GravatarSplendid, NYMary.


GravatarNTodd, when I was 18, alcohol was still legal for us young ones. You were born too late.

But then again, maybe not. You'll probably live longer than I will.


GravatarI can't afford it, timewise or financially. Oh well. I hope they think of me warmly anyway.

Sorry about that. Still working on the grant? Well, happy returns in advance, and I swear I'll remember tomorrow.


GravatarNTodd, Echidne--I've never petted Saff nor Hank, and yet, they're family, and I'm having a hard time keeping my eyes dry.


GravatarWow. Those people are cavemen.

Makes me think of the Geico commercials.

Caveman: Not cool, man... not cool.


Gravatar
I love NYMary.


*mwah!*

Shockingly, despite my decrepitude, the baby is not actually defective in anyway, or so says the amnio.


GravatarHappy Birtday NYMary!


GravatarYou'll probably live longer than I will.

I suspect not, with my genetics and lifestyle choices.


GravatarHappy birthday to NYMary! You are timeless.


GravatarHappy Bday!

And to you, buddy.

Did you get to make your phone call?


GravatarHappy birthday, darlin'!


Night, all.


GravatarI love NYMary.

I love her and her whole family. Even the lout.


GravatarCentral--the Stonecutters ep of the Simpsons is on. I'm thinking of you.


GravatarNTodd: I suspect not, with my genetics and lifestyle choices.

You'll catch your death of cold if you don't put some fuckin' pants on...!
.


GravatarThanks, all! Honestly, though, I have no plans. I did finish my grant, but that means now I have to do all the work I didn't do while I was taking care of that. I went in today and got to play with this itty-bitty model gamelan orchestra and some wicked cool Vietnamese water puppets.


GravatarI'm 23 tomorrow. Why are you stealing my birthday?


GravatarSpinoza--so are you making up for lost time now?


GravatarHappy birthday, Mary! And many more!


GravatarYou'll catch your death of cold if you don't put some fuckin' pants on...!

Nah, I just downed my State Ration of vodka and am feeling all warm. Oh, wait, I'm not back in the USSR...


Gravatar23 Skidoo to the Scoot Man!

The Boys at the Polk Gulch request your attendence at the Scooter Libby sendoff night on November 17th.

To acclimate the Scoot Man to his new surroundings, the glory holes will be outfitted with the Vice Presidential
Seal for this night only!!

Scoot's got to know how to bend over and take it like the man he is, so the boys at the Gulch will be introducing him to tricks he's got to know in order to survive in the slammer.

And YOU'RE invited!

And, if you think that Scoot's going up the river while Big Dickee and Dubya just watch and grin, I think you've got another think coming. Because that beautiful Kappa Kappa Gamma wife of his (Did you see the front page of the NY Times?) just isn't going to sit there and go to the benefits alone, no sireee. Nope, Scoot's gonna squeal, and perhaps your nemisis may just have to learn how to squat for the soap in the shower as well.

I don't know...


GravatarHappy Birthday To You,

Happy Birthday To You!

To NYMary.


GravatarDid you get to make your phone call?


Soon.

I lost my voice yesterday, so people in my immediate vicinity are thankful.


GravatarI used to work with this old black man when I was just a know-it-all kid at 18 and he would say, "You don't get to be this old by being stupid." He was about 75.


GravatarYou'll catch your death of cold if you don't put some fuckin' pants on...!

Don't do it on my account, NTodd. There are other ways to stay warm.


Gravatar I'm 23 tomorrow. Why are you stealing my birthday?

Old age and treachery generally beats youth and skill?


GravatarSeebach,

And John Philip Sousa and Sally Field, natch...

Darlin', I wasn't wearing pants when you woke me up at o-dark-thirty on Liberal Mountain. But why was I shivering so?


Gravatarsallyh,

I haven't seen that episode. I must confess there's way too many Simpsons that I haven't seen.


seebach,

Et tu?


Gravatar...I've already grieved so many times for her, but I'm pretty sure this is it...

Tardy condolences, NTodd. (I do lack a certain, how you say, currency in these threadzillas). I suppose--hell, I know it helps that she's not an only...pet. Also that you've been through it before. I remember when my Foofless died, and I never want to go through that again. Multiple kitties provide a certain amount of grief insurance. I hope...


Gravatar"I'm 23 tomorrow. Why are you stealing my birthday?
Seebach"

happy bday. so young!


GravatarBut why was I shivering so?

Were the sheets soaking wet? Was a freight train running through the middle of your head?


GravatarNYMary, what more can I add?

Except make Thers wait on you all day long.


Gravatar3? Hmm... isnt' there some rule that in a group of a certain amount, there's a certain chance of a certain number of people having the same birthday? Except I forgot all of the numbers...


GravatarMultiple kitties provide a certain amount of grief insurance. I hope...

As does a bit of the grape.

Thanks, Doozer.


GravatarOh, and happy birthday to you too, Seebach!

Jeez, I had no idea November 6 was such an auspicious day!


GravatarI love NYMary.

As do we all!

Hey Mary and evening all....


GravatarAnyways, Bobo is so lame. I saw his pasty grey face and mealy mouff lips this morning on CSPAN. Made me wanna sucker-punch him in the head.


GravatarTardy condolences, NTodd. (I do lack a certain, how you say, currency in these threadzillas). I suppose--hell, I know it helps that she's not an only...pet. Also that you've been through it before. I remember when my Foofless died, and I never want to go through that again. Multiple kitties provide a certain amount of grief insurance. I hope...

My previous dog, Fang, died in my arms and believe it nor not it was a beautiful experience for me. I miss her, of course, but I am very glad I was there and it was peaceful and spiritual.


Gravatar I must confess there's way too many Simpsons that I haven't seen.


seebach,

Et tu?
Central Scrutinizer


What is a "Simpsons"?


GravatarWere the sheets soaking wet? Was a freight train running through the middle of your head?

You know that only you can cool my desire.

I am hot.
Therefore, I'm on fire.

Gravatar Man, carlin is going nuts on live television and taking everyone with him.

I don't think you want to model your life on his, though.

We are all our own persons. Don't let the measure of another be yours.

Also: buy low, sell high. And never eat spinach with a stranger.


GravatarGWPDA, don't feel ashamed. It's a known disorder: late-onset autopantsing. It's sometimes referred to as "autodepantsing".

It's a confusing phenomenon.

But it's not uncommon for people to dissociate during initial episodes.

Clinical literature is filled with anecdotal descriptions, e.g. "It was like my pants just walked off me"; "I felt, like, a tingling chill, then a big gust of wind or something blew up and the next thing I knew my pants were draped across that bush"; "I swear it felt like lizards were clawing at my hip pockets-- and the next thing I remember, I was standing in front of my mailbox wondering why my pants were stuffed inside it..."

You get the idea. I cannot stress this enough, dear-- help is available. Don't be too proud; we're all in your corner.

Gravatarfor the final time

Good night


GravatarI mean, when the Clinton stuff was coming down in 98, I'm sure most of us were disappointed and annoyed, at the Republicans, at him for giving them any bullshit excuse to work with. But we believed that it happened, that the substance of the charges was true. Stupid and beside the point and not a worthy reason to impeach, but basically true.

I just don't see that kind of intellectual honesty on the right.


GravatarPreznit Bush. Biggest. Liar. Ever.

He had that fake turkey in Iraq.

Cherchez the oil, friends, cherchez the oil.


GravatarWhat scares me about Bobo and the trolls and their ilk is how overinvested they are in believing in George, like no amount of evidence can sway them. That can't be psychologically healthy, and they'll get more and more desperate as he goes down.

Of all the things I can't imagine, the thing I really can't imagine is what it'll be like - a decade or two from now - to look back and say "I was a shill for George W. Bush's failed regime."

That can't possibly feel good.


GravatarI'm not left-handed, just a leftie.


Same here. I'm wildly leftist, but really can only do one thing with my left hand...


Gravatari'm reformed too. well, not really reformed. i just don't get to drink nearly as much as i'd like to.


GravatarYeah. You are so right, sister. There is a HUGE difference between the lies of President Bill Clinton and those of Bushy McHitler Chimp and his Evil Minions. Clinton was a Democrat. And They are Republicans (!!!).

GravatarWell, yesterday was big sister RunawayRose's birthday (she's more of a Kossack), so y'all are in good company. May tomorrow be a good day for each and all: NYMary, Seebach, and Central Scrutinizer.

NTodd, been there with four of mine. Three I buried under the apple tree in my yard; the fourth died a week after the ice storm that took the tree down. I had her cremated - frozen ground, you know. Each one was wrapped in an old flannel shirt and had a couple of toys and a piece of beef jerky tucked in with them. I showed them to the other cats before taking them out to the yard (down to the vet's office for the one.} You can't explain what has happened to the beasties but they know death when they see it.

Anyway, you've been through this with other pets. I am willing to pay the price in grief for the love I've given and gotten. I'm sure you are too. Cuddle your dear old Saffron from me too.


GravatarMy Mom's birthday is tomorrow. She's going to be 58.


GravatarI'm celebrating having completed 16 job applications by watching Eddie Izzard tonight...

The lack of a rimshot emoticon will be the death of us all.

At night, the ice weasels come...


GravatarA big bottle of dry red wine, an 87% dark chocolate bar, a b-day for two of my fave Atriots, fifteen hours left on my "Unseen Cinema" DVD set, a troll suicide at Kos, and a troll meltdown here.

It's fixing up to be an OK night, all things considered.


Gravatar I'm celebrating having completed 16 job applications by watching Eddie Izzard tonight...

That seems wise. I was watching a program about lesbian monkeys (I am not kidding) when Thers preempted it for the Miami game.

GravatarYeah, Bonobos were one of the breeds they were loking at. Apparently their clitori are quite conveniently located.

Sort of like that joke about the woman who goes to see the doctor because she has an orgasm whenever she sneezes (and he gives her snuff)?


GravatarYeah, Bonobos were one of the breeds they were loking at. Apparently their clitori are quite conveniently located.

An obvious sign of intelligent design. But it doesn't explain why Santorum has his dick coming out of his forehead.


GravatarShhh, NTodd, it's okay, honey. Really.

The show was "In Search of Gay Animals," but I only got to see the first half. No idea if they moved onto penguins.

Bonobos (chimps actually rather than monkeys) use sex generally as a way of defusing aggression.


GravatarNTodd,

My best wishes to yer mother!


GravatarI can eat reasonably competently with my left hand. Which came in handy a few weeks back when I got my right hand between a boat and a car.

*Sigh* They're going to be playing with the boat next weekend if the weather cooperates, but I gotta work. Besides, it's going to be on a lake up near Athens; about a 90 mile drive each way if I could go.


GravatarOh Christ, It's a MMMM World is on channel 13, and Jimmy Durante is about to literaaly kick the bucket.


GravatarBonobos (chimps actually rather than monkeys) use sex generally as a way of defusing aggression.

Unlike Republicans, who use aggression as a way of defusing sex.


GravatarMy, she's a young one! As in, she's only 8 years older than me, and I'm sure after raising you, she doesn't feel a day over 100.

Heh. She waddled, rather gravid, on stage to get her BA, and had me barely a month after she graduated college. Almost died when I was 3 (which is why I went to live with Euell Gibbons), was told by her doctor back in the 80s that she wouldn't live past 50. And here she is, still granting Dad permission to buy toys and worrying too much about her only child...


GravatarBonobos (chimps actually rather than monkeys) use sex generally as a way of defusing aggression.

This, of course, explains why the conservatives like war so much....


GravatarJust don't ask me to watch a documentary about stinking-assed hetero puke monkeys.


Gravatarsallyh: Jeffraham--that depends upon if we're boring you

Not at all! I just have laundry to do before I work tomorrow afternoon, and it's an ordeal, y'know.

Beat ya to it! But to be fair, I had a one-year-and-24-day headstart on you.


GravatarNTodd--is the illness she had when she was young the reason for her disability?

I'm glad that your dad is so well trained. Stef needs to work harder on you.


GravatarBonobos (chimps actually rather than monkeys) use sex generally as a way of defusing aggression.

And now George Michael's "Faith" is tromping through my mind...


Gravatari'm not an expert, but i don't think that bonobos are genetically different from other chimps. they just have a different culture.


GravatarBonobos (chimps actually rather than monkeys) use sex generally as a way of defusing aggression.

Calling Konrad Lorenz, calling Konrad Lorenz. How you say 'makeup sex' auf Deutsch?


GravatarBonobos (chimps actually rather than monkeys) use sex generally as a way of defusing aggression

Hmmm, I have alot of aggression I need defused...


GravatarCalling Konrad Lorenz, calling Konrad Lorenz.

He's busy carving out lebensraum in Hell.


Gravatar
NOW will you hold me?


Sure.

I have a theory that what really freaks Republicans out is nonprocreative sexuality of any kind. And the female orgasm, which of course serves no evolutionary purpose, or at least not a settled one. (I recall reading something about this a few months ago, though....)


GravatarJeffraham--I'd do the laundry now and sleep as late as possible. You could get extra Curly-massages in, too!


GravatarWhat's really crazy, not only my two sons born in November, is that their cousin, also born in Nov., is also left-handed.

And proudly against Bushwad & co.


GravatarHmmm, I have alot of aggression I need defused...

But how conveniently is your clitoris located?


GravatarAnd the female orgasm, which of course serves no evolutionary purpose, or at least not a settled one.

I thought I had read it caused, and the indelicate terminology is not my own, the cervix to... suck in... fluid?


GravatarOh, and NTodd? There is no such thing as worrying too much about one's kids. It's what moms do.


GravatarI have a theory that what really freaks Republicans out is nonprocreative sexuality of any kind.

Well, if fucking ten-year-old boys counts as "nonprocreative," then I think I'll have to disagree.


GravatarEvening all.

Well, that's the pickle -- I haven't had a lot of luck with sleeping late, recently... at least not restful sleep.

The job keeps me energized, though -- it's not tiring.

GravatarOlaf,
Maybe, maybe not. Certainly not all chimps are built like the Bonobos. But to what extent this part of their culture is a response to a specific physiological build is a matter of debate, I guess.


GravatarOlaf glad and big,

Aren't they a sub-species?


GravatarYeah, "ether" posted that he couldn't bear to shill for BushCo any longer. Called himself an "uber-troll" at Eschaton. Funny stuff!
Phila


And we're believing that shit. I'm gonna buy that anyone with a 2 digit IQ would think trolling a blog comments section was an important thing to do. Riiiiight...


Gravatar NTodd--is the illness she had when she was young the reason for her disability?

Yeah, an immuno thing. Originally thought to be lupus, then 'atypical Henoch-Schoenlein purpura', and now...who the fuck knows. Body rejects its own organs, arthritis, and all sorts of other fun things.

Oddly enough, she and Stef take many of the same meds (Stef has fibro). It's very annoying having them in the same room together, what with all their talk about dosages and side effects and the latest studies...


GravatarI thought I had read it caused, and the indelicate terminology is not my own, the cervix to... suck in... fluid?

Possibly. In the Middle Ages, it was widely believed that women could only conceive if they had an orgasm.


Gravatari'm not an expert, but i don't think that bonobos are genetically different from other chimps. they just have a different culture.

Bonobos for years were thought to be chimps. In fact they were called smaller or little chimps. But most scientists now regard them as a separate species from chimps.


GravatarSo happy birthday to NTodd's mother too. And commiseration on putting up with him for lo these many years. And a big "Pththhhb" for inflicting him on the world.


GravatarBut how conveniently is your clitoris located?

Well if I had one, and if it was conveniently located I probably wouldn't have as much aggression to defuse.


GravatarNTodd--ah, the daughter she never had.

Still, Stef sounds remarkably vital for one with fibro. My brother has it and spent 2 years bedridden; he's 48 and retired. of course, being a fellow at Sun with all those luscious stock options made it possible.


Gravatar
NOW will you hold me?

Sure.


Cool.

I have a theory that what really freaks Republicans out is nonprocreative sexuality of any kind.

Of course. It's icky and stuff, and if you're not going to make a baby, then why bother?

And the female orgasm, which of course serves no evolutionary purpose, or at least not a settled one. (I recall reading something about this a few months ago, though....)

Oh, I read that the Big O was useful. Opinions vary.

Actually they're a different species. The commmon chimp is much more prone to violence than the bonobo, or pygmy chimp. In the latter case, but not the former, sex is used to defuse violence. So, as long as one has in mind the common chimp when referring to chimpy, the usage is apt.


GravatarWell if I had one, and if it was conveniently located I probably wouldn't have as much aggression to defuse.

They didn't start you out on the loading dock?


GravatarCum see the new SHEETS I stained.

GravatarI thought I had read it caused, and the indelicate terminology is not my own, the cervix to... suck in... fluid?

Or so Desmond Morris would have you believe.


GravatarOh, I read that the Big O was useful. Opinions vary.

Oh, it's useful.


Gravatar(I recall reading something about this a few months ago, though....)

It probably had to do with Elizabeth Lloyd's anti-adaptationist book on female orgasm, which is well worth reading.

Especially for me, since I read a half-baked gloss on that book in some newspaper, attacked Dr. Lloyd viciously on my blog, and was forced to eat copious amounts of shit after she e-mailed me and politely straightened me out.

She's a very, very nice person.


GravatarJeffraham--well, you could curl up with the Curly critter, watch some brain dead TV and call it a night.


GravatarThe owl has many loose threads tonight.


GravatarDamn, lesbian monkeys work as well as poetry or physics! Who'd've thunk?


GravatarOh, I read that the Big O was useful. Opinions vary.

Oh, it's useful.


Of that, I have no doubt.

Could it be that satisfied cavewomen had a markedly reduced tendency to bash their mates over the head with a studded club in their sleep?
And thay can be read either way...


GravatarAtrios has a new post, but it is depressing as hell, so this birthday thread might be worth more than the newer one.


GravatarYou know what's not so useful? A web proxy that never shows owls coming on sheets until well after Frist has been there.


GravatarPossibly. In the Middle Ages, it was widely believed that women could only conceive if they had an orgasm.

And in the GOP's new middle ages, they can't conceive of women having an orgasm.


GravatarOh, I read that the Big O was useful. Opinions vary.

The debate isn't so much about whether it's useful on some level - I think everyone agrees it is - as about whether it's a specific adaptation.


GravatarThere's no such thing as depressing anymore. It's just "more stuff everybody knew except now we can prove it."


Gravatar Atrios has a new post, but it is depressing as hell, so this birthday thread might be worth more than the newer one.

I don't know...seems like another wallop on the stake in BushCo's heart, to me.


GravatarBonobos (chimps actually rather than monkeys) use sex generally as a way of defusing aggression.

Sweet Surrender Monkeys?
Are they French?


GravatarAnd in the GOP's new middle ages, they can't conceive of women having an orgasm.

Well, it's hard work!

Totally! It requires all that foreplay, and creativity, and an in-depth knowledge of the Kama Sutra, and the Tao of Sex, and The Move, and a good embouchure, and patience, and love and all sorts of other hippy fucked up shit.

It also helps to like the person you're with, which is why Laura and Lynne are undoubtedly dependent upon electronic assistance.

An chemical assistance.


GravatarLAte to the roast here, but here goes anyway--

Squilliam -- "...Thomas Nast pigs-at-the-trough cartoon"

Oh yes, something has changed. These folks ARE the cartoons made flesh.

Brooks and Bush share that tell-tale self-righteous smirk. I leave the room when either appears on screen. It's worse than porn.
