We have had a lot of that down here in Georgia. My impulse is to say that such people were never really Democrats (at one time, Republicans couldn't get elected to anything down here), but I think it's closer to the truth to say that they each belong to a political party with a membership consisting of only one person: themselves.

Democrats fail to find a message
By Justin Webb
BBC News, Washington
President Bush's popularity ratings have plummeted, but why, asks Justin Webb, is it that the opposition, the Democrats, are not surfing the opinion polls, capitalising on the Republicans' misfortunes and preparing to take over Congress when the election comes in the autumn?
In any list of America's greatest contributions to world culture - the kazoo, the electric guitar, drive-in fast food etc - space should be found, in my view, for an invention deeply ingrained in the life of this nation.
An invention on show to almost all Americans, every day.

Nearly 50 Reported Killed in Iraq Violence
BAGHDAD, Iraq Feb 25, 2006 (AP)— A car bomb exploded in a Shiite holy city and 13 members of a Shiite family were gunned down Saturday in a surge of attacks killing at least 30 people despite heightened security to curb Iraq's sectarian violence following the bombing of a revered Shiite shrine.
Nearly 50 people were reported killed in all.
At least one more Sunni mosque was attacked in Baghdad on Saturday after two rockets were fired at a Shiite mosque in Tuz Khormato, north of the capital, the previous night. Shooting also broke out near the home of a prominent Sunni cleric during the funeral procession for an Al-Arabiya TV correspondent slain in sectarian violence. Police believed the procession was the target.

No, it's because the South is a one-party state, always has been. The South has more in common with Latin America than with America: former agrarian elite riding roughshod over an almost non-existant middle class and a lower class rendered disposable by virtue of not being the same race, facilitated by religious superstition and pre-modern style demagoguery.

Shell told to pay Nigerians $1.5bn pollution damages
· Oil giant will appeal against court decision
· Kidnap and sabotage cripple production
A Nigerian court yesterday ordered Royal Dutch Shell to pay $1.5bn (£858m) in damages for polluting the Niger delta, a fresh blow to the company which was already reeling from a kidnap crisis and a wave of sabotage against its installations.
A federal high court in Port Harcourt, the heart of the country's oil industry, ruled that Shell must compensate communities in Bayelsa state for degrading their creeks and spoiling crops and fishing. The decision was a major victory for the Ijaw people - who have campaigned for compensation for more than a decade - and one of Shell's worst legal setbacks.

Animal lab supporters go on march
Nearly 500 people marched in support of animal testing at Oxford University's new £18m biomedical research centre.
Students, academic staff and members of the public gathered near the lab site, being built under strict security.
Anti-vivisection activists, who believe animal testing "belongs in the past", want the controversial centre closed.
But supporters say it is essential for medical research. Prof John Stein, the University's professor of physiology, said: "This is an historic day."
The decision was a major victory for the Ijaw people - who have campaigned for compensation for more than a decade - and one of Shell's worst legal setbacks.

Byers urges Labour union rethink
Labour must re-examine its trade union links "to keep in touch with the things that really matter to the people", ex-minister Stephen Byers is to say.
The ex-transport secretary will tell a union conference in Tyneside that links should be maintained, but modernised.
He will say the priorities of a "small, unrepresentative number of people" must not "distort" Labour's programme.
The Transport and General Workers Union said unions continued "to play a positive part" in arguing for policies.

Officers injured in Dublin riot
Several police officers and a journalist have been hurt during a republican riot in Dublin.
Disturbances broke out in O'Connell Street in the city centre, where a unionist rally to remember the victims of republican violence was to start.
Stones and fireworks were thrown after republican demonstrators mounted a counter-march. The loyalist rally was cancelled as a result of the trouble.
Several cars were set on fire and police urged people to avoid the area.
A number of protesters were also injured during the clashes.

OT: Governor Mike Rounds inclined to sign legislation outlawing abortions in SD. (AP, hour and a half ago)
Planned Parenthood, which operates the only clinic in the state that provides abortions, vowed to sue. But even before the bill has a signature, money to defend it poured in. Lawmakers were told during the debate that an anonymous donor pledged $1 million to defend the ban, and the Legislature was setting up a special account to accept donations.
"We've had people stopping in our office trying to drop off checks to promote the defense of this legislation already," Rounds said.
[snip]
About 800 abortions are performed in South Dakota each year. Leslee Unruh, president of the Alpha Center, a Sioux Falls pregnancy counseling agency that tries to steer women away from abortion, said most of them do not stem from rape or even failed contraception, but are simply "conveniences."
Unruh said she believes most South Dakota women want the state to ban abortion, and many who have had abortions "wish someone would have stopped them."
Conveniences. Fucking bitch.

Poor President Bush, prince of fools. He let the neoconservative creative destructors play upon his religiosity (and Cheney's power hunger) and persuade him that the overthrow of Saddam Hussein would be a transformative moment that would set democracy and freedom in motion across the region, and crown him in history with Churchillian honor. I believe Bush wanted democracy in Iraq, or convinced himself that he believed it after the Chalabi-as-chess-king scheme fell through, because such belief flatters his pride in his own idealism. But the intellectual architects of the policy didn't care. If there was peace and stability in the new Iraq that would strength America's power in the region and bolster Israeli security, fine; if Iraq fissured into factional strife, fire, and chaos, better still.

Israeli forces raid Jericho
Israeli occupation forces have swarmed into the normally peaceful southern West Bank town of Jericho arresting two Palestinians.
About 18 military Jeeps backed by two helicopters pushed into the desert oasis town and arrested Sami Arkelan, a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades.
His family said , Ziad Awazme, a nephew of Arkelan was also taken. It is not clear if Awazme belonged to the resistance group, which is an offshoot of the mainstream Fatah movement.
The Israeli army confirmed an arrest operation had taken place in the city, saying troops had arrested Arkelan.

my sister was in Wengen during the skiing compeition season and she got to meet Hermann Maier
the Herminator!
she was working as a travel rep for Swiss Travel and was based in on the of the hotels so she got to meet a lot of skiiers.
I was at the top but often was left off the lists because they would assume I would not be able to afford to make it to the races. I found a way for several years and upset the boat a few times.
The other thing I noticed was how much more time the coaches would spend with girls that developed early...if you get my drift.
OK WGG if you start humming The Wind Beneath My Wings ...I'm gonna really be worried about you.
How ya doing Roomie? Want to join me on a trip to Tweety's Hamptons home to set him straight
I was surrounded by Bode Millers in my attempt to be an Olympian. Mt. House in Lake Placid was literally filled with Bodes. Most went to private schools that specialized in skiing, most had very rich parents that thought nothing of writing checks to the team for expenses. Most were violent and abusive towards others and often lashed out when they did not perform well.

All Repukes, I'm sure!
my sister is curretly skiing there at the moment.
"The dissemination of this information has clearly damaged our national security interests..."
But I thought the UAE deal was not a matter of national security. Since it's not a security issue, who cares who knows the details?
Al,
The two parallel stories of the increase in the rate of global warming and the overdevelopment of the coastal regions seem like they're on a collision course, no?

As an old professor of mine used to say about smoking, "It proves one thing. Education doesn't work."

Unless you're peddling fully submersible homes, it would seem so.

I got to meet Ingemar and the Maher brothers, Billy Kidd too. They were all at the 1976 World Cup in Stratton VT.
Chris Dillow: Managerialism and the Police State
Moonbootica, your sister is in the olympics?
Billy Kidd wasn't racing of course.
Oh and by the way, I need to say this, though it's off topic:
Bill Maher was an ass last night. He was on his libertarian kick - if it affects me, then Bush can do whatever he wants to make sure I'm ok, never mind the rest of you.
Plus he was going on about Summers leaving Harvard and being the victim of "political correctness."
Lame ass show last night. He either picks up the pace or he's toast.
politica cool.
my dad only started skiing again 2 years ago after a long gap.
when he got married he used the money he had saved up for a skiing trip to go towards a house.
I'm drinking right now so if I don't make any sense, that's why.
Will the oceans become *significantly* less salty?

So, those who think animal testing is torture and murder, are you going to volunteer to be the test subjects for new medical or surgical products? Would you prefer that developmenr cease? Or that new products be used untested?
I have seen testing of new surgical products, mostly on dogs, at the University of Minnesota and 3M labs. I felt sorry for the dogs, but also saw that they were handled gently. Yes, they were put through surgery that did not benefit them in any way, and most were killed after recovery to see how the products tested were interacting with their bodies. They lived longer than they would have at the pound.
I realize this is a subject that people are going to be upset by. If I thought that my cats could end up as research subjects, I would be extremely upset myself. But if you eat meat or eggs or dairy products, or use leather, and still get riled over use of lab animals, you are not thinking. Feeling, and I don't question your strong feelings, but not thinking.
All Repukes, I'm sure!

Ahianne, I understand your point, life feeds on life and while we have the ability to move beyond the destructive testing eventually, we do seem to need to go through it to gather the information necessary to move beyond it.

Everything has to have a “Godfather” reference, OK? “Godfather II” opens up with Fredo, the weak brother. His wife‘s drunk on the dance floor trying to dance with everybody, make out with everybody else, right? And somebody goes up to Fredo and says, Fredo, if you don‘t take care of your wife, we will.
I got the feeling this week that George Bush was made to look, the president of the United States, like Fredo. He couldn‘t control his partner.

So?
Ahianne thats how I feel, too.
Unfortunate, but necessary for now.
There should be a high level ivestigation on who leaked all the information about the deal between the two companies for the UAE port operator to take over the operations of the US ports.
This is the way wingnuts think. Anything that makes Maximus look bad has to be investigated. Chris Matthews was actually praising Bush on the Port deal, saying that he reminded him of Maximus or some other Roman leader.
but i abhor killing in the name of God.
God said "Abraham kill me a son...
Tena...Maher did suck. And the panel sucked. Gary Hart hardly said 2 words.
Except he did get through a very sharp point of 20,000 US casualties in Iraq, and how the Bush government is hiding the number of wounded. That message was expressed very clearly. So Hart did good.
I don't get all the threats that lawyers are making. I was taught in no uncertain terms that it is unethical, period, to threaten people with lawsuits.
Tena
Tena, I'm looking for a reacton not an opinion.
Say people wanted to take advantage of "a medical system that's the envy of the world" but were, well you know, poor and not allowed membership. Could people with good medical coverage through their employer say, enter into a pre-configured prenuptial agreement for a specified term of marriage, etc for the purpose of extending medical coverage to their new spouse (pay as you go or no) for the term of the marriage absent other martial rights or priviledges?
I'm thinking if there's a way contractual way around the perception of fraud, this would be a very good way of solving the health care crisis for liberals everywhere. Of course theory and practice are two different things.
I definitely need to be in or near the mountains. I'm looking to build/buy a solar home in the mountains with wood stove for back-up heat.
Conflicting laws hinder research
Conflicting national policies in embryonic stem cell research hamper international collaboration, leading scientists and ethicists have said.
They have called upon scientists, journals and funding bodies worldwide to set an international ethical standard for research in this area.
The recommendations were made at a three-day international conference in Cambridgeshire, UK.
The researchers hope the measures will enable international collaboration.

Envy of the world?
Bush has made us hated all over the world.
If it was not for the media, the GOP would be finished as an American party. Every week there seems to be some scandal that the media ultimately cover up for. Last week is was Cheney's drunk shooting. This week it is the Port deal. Hardly any of the media has asked the most obvious questions: a)who is making money on the deal and are there any financial ties that made it go through faster, and b) if nobody knew about the deal, then how did it go through? The media is even covering up the number of actual ports-21- not the 6 that are being reported.
Tena, I'm looking for a reacton not an opinion.
What hell does that have to do with Cino's lawyer threatening to sue?
That's what I was talking about - I was taught in Ethics that you don't do that. You do not threaten lawsuits.
I do not get how that is connected to your comment about health care.
My connection's just sucking, today.

Bill Maher was an ass last night.
bill maher is way the fuck overrated. his preparation for that program is half-assed, leaving it to an already informed audience to fill in the huge gaps in his grasp of facts. he sets up an issue and then gets punked by that week's wingnut who can talk circles around him. but because maher didn't do his homework, he really doesn't succeed at knocking it down.

Will the oceans become *significantly* less salty?

Good question. In the North Atlantic the answer seems yes as that's often the attribution for slowing the conveyor current.
Since predictions are for a global 3 foot rise in sea levels, one would think so. The question is, how much of that rise is attributed to the melting of "sea ice?"
Bush has made us hated all over the world.
I don't think he started it, but he certainly has

The question is, how much of that rise is attributed to the melting of "sea ice?"
None of it.
Once Ice is floating in the sea, it's displacing the same amount of water as the liquid it would become if melted.
Rise in ocean levels has to do with either melting on land or land ice sliding into the sea (glaciers for example).
Watch what you say or he'll sue you all...SUE YOU ALL I TELL YOU! BWAAAAA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

"We are ready to fill the streets with armored vehicles."
"But the Americans won't let us have any. So I guess we're -- how do you say -- fucked."
Good morning. Do I really want to be awake today?
Melting sea ice does not raise sea levels. If it's floating, it's already displacing its weight in water. It's the shrinking of glaciers, the Greenland and Antarctic icecaps, that's the water that's going to drown the coasts.
"We are ready to fill the streets with armored vehicles."
But they all blowed up!

The freedom to get our asses kicked.
I've always felt ice is evidence of God kludging the universe. Sort of a workaround bad design, as it were. Water gets less dense at about 36ºF, so the ice forms at the surface instead of freezing from the bottom up. If water behaved like just about every other substance it would get denser as it got colder and ice would start at the bottom of lakes. But that would kill everything trying to swim.

The distinction is in the nature of the notice.
You should (IIRC from my lawyer days, a decade or two ago, and even then it was mostly defense work) send notice of intent to sue. Under some Texas statues (DTPA, again IIRC), you have to give notice of intent.
That's not the same as a threat. A threat is eesentially blackmail. Do what I want (or my client wants), or we sue.
That's not allowed.
Notice is: you screwed up, and we're comin'. If you want to settle, fine. If you don't settle, we'll see you in court. But it's up to you.
A threat is: "we'll go to court unless..."
A fine line, perhaps, but a real one.

It needs to be changed to find reasons for symptoms and causes which would make people a lot healthier, would be cheaper, and cause less pain and torture of animals and people alike.

An accurate summary of current Wingnut thinking:
The outing of Valerie Plame was:
1) justified by her husband calling attention to the fact that the Niger claims were false
2) but not orchestrated by Cheney's office, and
3) Valerie Plame was not really covert, and that she was a partisan Democrat who therefore deserved to be outed, and
4)the Niger claims were not really false, and that even if they were,
5) the ends justified the means, the ends in this case being the invasion of Iraq.
6) But regardless of any of the above, Cheney can do whatever he wants to do, and to call it into question is to help the terrorists, and

Our permanent military bases in Iraq will be occupied by Americans for only as long as forces in Iraq allow us to be there. The bases may be permanent, but who controls them won't be. It isn't going to be like Germany after WWII.
Very true. The main difference is that the Germans, for the most part, wanted us to be there. When I was stationed in Germany, in the early 80's, the closer you got to the intra-German border, the happier the locals were to see a US soldier. Futhermore, other Europeans were happy to have us there, for two reasons: deterent for the Soviets, and as insurance that the Germans themselves wouldn't be up to anything. It's why we've got bases there to this day. Even the Germans are happy, to a degree, that we're still there, despite the disappearance of a Soviet threat 15 years ago; they don't quite trust themselves after the unpleasantness of 60 years past.
None of these circumstances exist in Iraq. It's much more like the situation the Germans faced in Poland, France, Belgium, Denmark, or the Netherlands 1939-1944.
ProfWombat, when I lived in the part of the world that had white castles, I noticed that they tasted better when you were eating them with a stomach full of alcohol. Maybe without that they do constipate.

Tena, true, but I was expanding it to include non-lawyers using a veiled threat of legal action to get their way. I used to run a small, nonprofit ISP in the mid 90s, and bullying by threatening to "call a lawyer" was used all the time by those disgruntled with one of my subscribers who ticked them off on USENET.
My favorite was two jeebofascists who got into a very un-christian exchange over some trivial disagreement in a Christian music newsgroup.
In our society, threatening a lawsuit is just a more genteel way of threatening to bash the other's skull in, or blow a hole in the other's torso.
I still don't understand how Michael Cino qualifies as anything but a silly and somewhat confused retard.
I have eaten a White Castle slider. Two, in fact. You're not missing much, ProfWombat.

The rightwing approach to any problem is invariably perverse.
Take abortion for example.
Instead of promoting teenage sex education to prevent stds and disease they denounce it.
Instead of making contraceptives and the morning after pill ubiquitously available, they block them.
Instead of making abortions rare, safe and available, their policies will make them epidemic, unsafe and criminal.

I need to get my yard in order, too.
I'll be working my ass off in March, April, and May. But I need to do it, anyway.
I was 1 in '69
politica
I was -2.
Rule 1--"Commas and periods ALWAYS go inside the quotation marks."
Not when you're citing a source per MLA!
Oh thank you for reminding me how old I am.

did i mention my belching colloquy with ms. leachman that same evening... (between takes) she was keeping morale up among the 'background artistes' (as we are called by our superior 1st asst. dir)...she's GOTTA be 80...and so tiny!
Vicki - if you still have my email, drop me a line. I'd be honored to help with any decorating.
Almost. It's about women fucking.
Yep, the standard is,
Men who screw around are "studs"
Women who do this are sluts.
No, I'm not defending this. The double standard is as responsible for societies problems, as any of the "evils" that fundy preachers like to thump their pulpits on.
I need to redo my living room, my kitchen, my bathroom, my back foyer, and my front foyer by June.
I have to have my in-laws apartment out back ready by June (half finished).
Still picking myself up off the floor from yesterday - Went to the mail box, and my father-in-law had sent a check to pay for the whole thing, plus threw in some so we can do some remodeling inside the house.
IMO, it was only fun until '68.

You're probably right, but I don't know how come you want to make me feel like shit today whenever I say something.
I couldn't make it til '69, so make me feel like I missed it all.
Jeez.
I think I should get offline awhile. See y'all later.
Men who screw around are "studs"
More precisely, men who screw around with women are "studs."
Owls are tangled in the sheets.
Draco, glad to see that you've rebounded from your recent doldrums.
I used to observe the "punctuation always going inside quotes" rule until I read Lynne Truss' "Eats Shoots and Leaves".
I concluded that the British approach of varying the punctuation placement according to the sense of the text is a more authentic and elegant approach.
Of course, once in a while my fellow Amerikans see fit to attempt to correct me. Bwah ha ha! They do not realize their peril: I am the finest pensman in all of France!
Rorschach--I remember my MLA style guide and I thought they used the American rule, not the British one for citations. Maybe my memory is fogged. The book was devoured by mildew in storage

If you're citing a source, you have to indicate the page number, and the period gets thrown out to the end. " " (32).
Little Bro--The British method of placing the comma or period where it belongs in the quote is indeed more logical and accurate. But try explaining that to 18 year olds in freshman English.
What doug said.
And rorschach hit an important point, too.
Women fucking men: bad.
Men fucking men: VERY bad.
Men fucking women: fine, they were OBVIOUSLY seduced by the vixens, otherwise they'd be at a church social.
Women fucking women: does not compute (tip of the hat to Queen Victoria on that one...)
atrios...
i'm from/born in SD. i'm thinkin' about leavin' myself, now that cro-magnon's are running the state...
kate looby, so. dak. planned parenthood state director has her hands full with the current situation here. a couple years ago she nailed it right on the head in this ny times piece.

as i write... gov. rounds has 10 days or so to sign or veto this bill.
he's getting dozens' of calls from party higher-ups. he's in DC this weekend trying to figure out his 'role' in this and seeing what he can get out of this.
FYI: the only reason that this happened in SD is that it is a very small state and a few select people can ram anything thru.
if the readers of ATRIOS were the ONLY ONES to go to:
http://www.state.sd.us/governor/
and click on the 'this email requires a response' button before sending a non-inflammatory/reasoned email encouraging him to veto this bill... it would make gov. rounds think twice.
that's even if we were the ONLY ONES. but, we won't be.
the battle starts at the above link.
pass it on. please.
