Huffy was good on the CSpan book tv forum today. Sully is a man with no spiritual center, funny he harps that point.
Conservatives have a sense of soul, but Bush is not a Coneservative. For Sully to harp on Dems having no soul is to ignore the elphant in the room.

Jean Rohe, a BA/BFA graduate of the Jazz Program and Eugene Lang, was born in Paterson, New Jersey in 1984. As a youngster, Jean grew up singing and performing folk music with her family. Jean spent a year at Smith College followed by a summer at the Universidad de la Habana in Cuba on scholarship where she honed her Spanish skills, learned about Cuban history, culture, and politics, and made some of her dearest friends. Since she transferred to the New School in 2002, Jean has sung in venues throughout New York City, including the Birdland, Sweet Rhythm, the Cornelia Street Café, Detour, Barbés, and others. She also teaches and performs music for young children at the Third Street Music School Settlement and at venues throughout the city. She recently completed her senior work at Eugene Lang, an audio documentary about her trip to Israel/Palestine during the Gaza disengagement last August. In July she will be performing at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland.

"Later, John McCain arrived in the green room, and with the encouragement of Laurie Anderson, another honoree, Christina and I introduced ourselves to him. I almost wanted to warn the guy that I was about to make him look like an idiot so that he would at least have a fighting chance and an extra moment to change his speech to save himself. But he didn't even make eye contact when we shook hands, so I figured I didn't owe him anything."

Italy's foreign minister has said that the new government will begin planning the withdrawal of its troops from Iraq next week.
Massimo D'Alema made the comments on Saturday, two days after Romano Prodi, the prime minister, called the war in Iraq "a grave error" that fueled international terrorism.
"The government will begin working as soon as next week on a plan to redefine the character of the Italian presence in Iraq, which will become a civilian presence," D'Alema said during a visit to Naples.
He was quoted by Italian news agencies as saying that the decision "is not a flight, but a political choice".
He later said the first meeting to plan the pull out was scheduled for Wednesday, according to the ANSA news agency.

And just before the end of the ceremony Bob Kerrey asked if I wanted to walk out with McCain. I said that would be OK. Kerrey led me over to him as the recessional music began, and I took McCain's arm. "I'm sorry, man," I told him, "I just had to do it." He mumbled something about it being alright, but I think he probably would've rather not had me there.

This rare case of violence in Czech politics comes two weeks before highly anticipated parliamentary elections.
Saturday's incident came at the start of seven days of protests against Mr Rath's policies, dubbed "A Week of Healthcare Unrest".
But no-one envisaged the unrest going quite this far.
Mr Rath, an election leader for the governing Social Democrats, had accepted an invitation to speak at a meeting of disgruntled dentists.

Remember that they gave one of the Marsalises an honary degree and that the college president gave a good speech about the GI Bill that resonated w/ my dad, who was happy to be watching his grandson, the great-grandson of a house painter, graduate that day. When Son graduated from law school, Janet Reno was the speaker. Son and d-i-l were just back from a honeymoon in Bali and we went to Morton's for dinner. Absolutely no idea who spoke at my college graduation in 1978 or my master's graduation or my law school graduation (Maybe Shallala?)

Son graduated from Princeton in 1995; I have no memory at all of who the graduation speaker was.
Colby '91 speaker: Thomas J Watson, Jr. Everybody was annoyed because he was a "nobody", but I was thrilled. He actually gave an interesting speech about the post-Cold War world.
Unfortunately, a certain not-so-dynamic duo of "centrist" politicians foiled my standard graduation speech and forced me to act. Until just the day before commencement I really hadn't understood the gravity of the situation.
and this:
So in the wee hours of the morning I set out to revise my speech, re-saving it as "mccain speech subversive.doc". And at three o'clock in the morning I woke up my other roommate as I practiced reading it in our living room. She wasn't upset. "Sounds like you're running for president," she told me. We all agreed that I had no choice. It was the only thing I could do at the commencement. And so, tingling with nerves, I tried to go to sleep.
The future looks so bright tonight . The "Echo Boomers" (born between 1980 and 1990) are the largest cohort in history. They'll all be eligible to vote in 2008.
They are not going to vote for John McCain!! yay!!!!!

It's been noted in several columns that anti-McCain sentiment coming from the left may actually help him to garner support from the conservatives by giving him the opportunity to paint us as extremist liberals, so we should all keep our mouths shut. I say we need some "extremist liberals" if we're ever going to get our democracy back.

An assassination attempt on the Palestinian intelligence chief ignited an already tense situation in Gaza yesterday, with gun battles breaking out between rival factions.
Tareq abu Rajab, close to the moderate Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, was seriously wounded in a bomb blast in a lift at his headquarters in Gaza which killed one of his aides. It was the culmination of an increasingly nervous stand-off between the Hamas-controlled parliament and the president which has seen both sides deploy paramilitary-style militias in the streets.
Later in the day the family of Rajab's aide fought a gun battle with Hamas supporters inside the Al Deira hotel on Gaza's seafront, scattering the journalists who use it as their base and injuring several Palestinians inside the hotel.
Earlier in the week, Hamas had defied Abbas by suddenly deploying thousands of armed fighters to the streets of the Gaza strip in the name of security, a move that the Fatah militias that back the president mimicked with a deployment of their own fighters, turning every corner of Gaza City into a heavily armed checkpoint, and resulting in nightly clashes between the two factions.

Former US vice-president Al Gore, who is at the Cannes Film Festival, has warned the world is facing a "planetary emergency" due to global warming.
A documentary based on the politician's environmental campaigning is being screened at the festival.
Mr Gore said the world faced a stark choice between the end of civilisation and a future for its children.
He also said he was not considering running again for presidential office in 2008.
Mr Gore said global warming was a "challenge to our moral imagination to understand it and then to respond to it urgently".

I think someone like Gore could have more influence outside politics than by running for office. If he's in office, he has to deal with all kinds of stuff he'd rather not. This way, he can do what he wants in the areas he wants to affect.

The Henry Kissinger Song
Henry Kissinger, how I'm missing ya,
You're the doctor of my dreams,
With your crinkly hair and your glassy stare
And your Machiavellian schemes
I know they say that you are very vain
And short and fat and pushy, but at least you're not insane
Henry Kissinger, how I'm missing ya,
And wishing you were here.

BTW, Bush lied again:
President Bush appears to have broken a pledge he made in 1999 to veto any tax increase bills, according to an article set for Sunday's New York Times, RAW STORY has found.
"The $69 billion tax cut bill that President Bush signed last week tripled tax rates for teenagers with college savings funds, despite Bush's 1999 pledge to veto any tax increase," reports David Cay Johnston.

You blow me away!
Sit on my face and let my lips embrace you.

It's fun to charter an accountant
And sail the wide accountan-cy,
To find, explore the funds offshore
And skirt the shoals of bankruptcy.
It can be manly in insurance:

We're fairly incorruptible,
We're sailing on the wide accountan-cy!

Camelot Song
We're knights of the round table, we dance whene're we're able.
We do routines, and border scenes, and footwork imp-e-cable;
We dine well here in Camelot, we eat ham and jam and spamalot.
We're knights of the round table, our shows are for-mid-able
The many times, we're given rhymes, that are quite un-sing-able
We're often mad in Camelot, we sing from the lie of hamalot!
Though we're tough and able,
Quite in-de-fa-ti-gable,
Between our quests, we seek incest and impersonate Clark Gable,
It's a busy life in Camelot:

I've been thinking about this all day: What do I hate more, the Bush Administration or fundamentalist Islam? Fortunately, it's not intellectually inconsistent to hate them both.
If we could just sort out all the lies that our captive media tell us, I'd like to get a better idea of just how many Islamists there are in the world. The shame of it is that they really are fascists, like Zionists, but there is such hysteria among the neocons and their lapdogs that it's impossible to pick out the truth.
I got a letter from an inlaw who's in a Muslim country today. A thoughtful guy with no discernable hatred in him, and he's alarmed by what he sees. There really are people who want the whole world to be under Sharia, and they are leaving a wake of pain.
Another reason I can't stand George Bush. He thinks he's going to fight one repressive regime by becoming another, rather than by showing the world just how cool freedom and prosperity can be. Far as I can tell, that's the only way to fight fundamentalism.

Fundamentalist Islam is a reaction to the intrusion of the West into their country to either right the wrong of Germany (the establishment of Israel) or to exploit the region's natural resources. It is a reaponse to what it sees as a threat to it's home.
The Bush Administration sees the world as its oyster, and resents anyone who obstructs is exploitation of same. I hate neither one, but I understand what motivates fundamentalist Islam, and despise what motivates the Bush Administration.

Should be fjord cruising a week from today (strike permitting). Leaving the US Thursday night, Friday afternoon/evening in Oslo, then a 8 hr train ride to Bergen on Saturday and then on the boat.

Nothing like one of those small bags of salted peanuts dropped into a cold bottle of Dr. Pepper.
When I was a wee one my uncle owned a gas station (fillin' station) that had the little vending machines with boston baked beans (peanuts with some kind of hard candy shell), and various salted nuts. My uncle was the one that taught me the peanuts in the soda trick. Mmmm!

Dogs are so stupid. No cat would ever run after an abominable monster.
I saw a dog react to a passing horse on a hiking trail a few weeks back. The dog was obviously fascinated by the horse and unsure whether to be afraid of it or not, but definitely wanted to check it out. Fortunately for all concerned the dog's human wasn't going to let it investigate.

The item leading to this thread is among the best i've read on Eschaton. At my advanced age it feels good to see that sort of intelligent in one so young. The fact of her being musically inclined and not a professional drone is enlightening.

Happened much like that on the first 251 Club trip Mex and I took in the post-Cairo era. The boy thought the horses looked like some fun playmates, but nose-to-nose he got his Danger Mohawk and started woofing. The horse was...nonplussed.

Seriously, this young woman has more guts, intellect and common sense than 99% of congress.
This paragraph alone says it all:
It's been noted in several columns that anti-McCain sentiment coming from the left may actually help him to garner support from the conservatives by giving him the opportunity to paint us as extremist liberals, so we should all keep our mouths shut. I say we need some "extremist liberals" if we're ever going to get our democracy back. Others have said that he's a moderate at heart and that we should let him continue pandering to the religious right so he can get the vote. Once he gets into office he'll show his true colors and be the centrist he always was. I don't buy that. People who truly care about human beings don't vote for an unjust war, among other things, simply as a political maneuver. Enough said.
Bravo, Jean Rohe!

Evening all, recently returned from my first bicycle adventure in the big city.
Lets just say that this trip should only be considered by the experianced cyclist, if you are stoned and a wide eyed gawker. the first revelation of this fact occured as we turned onto Flatbush Ave heading toward the Brooklyn Bridge.
Entering Manhattan took Frankfort to Chamber and crossed over to the west side highway riding to 72nd to head across to central park, road the loop around the eastside exiting at 90th on the east side heading over to the FDR to somewhere in the mid fifties then over to 2nd Ave, where we enjoyed some light catching blocks at 30mph, and where I managed to piss of my first cabbie.
Now the Photos that i have seen of steve simels are a bit on the vague side, I thought I might have seen him coming out of a corner store on 2nd ave somewhere between the teens and 20's.
Anyhoo a fine ride, beautiful weather, and a possible simels sighting. Life is good.

So get over it. It's a fucking game. Let 'em take all the steriods they want until they look like kid's toys. Let 'em be the shitheads they aspire to be. Don't like it? Don't go to the games, don't watch 'em on TV.

CORRECTION***CORRECTION***CORRECTION***
to any and all who may have been here last night:
I confessed my experience with HIV, and a kind soul averred I must have had a false positive result on the Western Blot, which is not unheard of. But it cannot be so. If it were, I would never have tested positive for antibodies to HIV, which I did in both 1991 and 1998. Not that that makes my survival any less remarkable -- just that a comforting thought is also a specious one. I felt I had to clear this up for karma's sake if for no other reason. Peace out. Love ya, bats.

I forget where I read or heard that AIDS has quite a bit in common with the Black Plauge that killed so many in Europe. THe ones who survived it had been born with an antibody. A special gene that was in their DNA. ANd he case was being made that the same thing may be possible with the AIDS virus.

i didn't know him, but i've read a lot about him and he was a real hero to a lot of people.
I understand that and I don't wish to equate Ruth and Bonds in terms of personal unattractiveness... Bonds is an asshole of Terrell Owens-like proportions, and that's saying a lot.
But Ruth's was an era that loved heroes and was willing to overlook (and forgive not being told about) the personal shortcomings of its greatest acheivers. We love to tear ours down (some are easier than others).
Ruth was a man of oversized appetites (of all kinds) who would have provided an inviting target to the media of our own age.
Barry Bonds, as little as I'd like to 'hang' with the guy, can hit some baseball, no matter how 'juiced' his muscles might be from steroids... he comes by that honestly... his dad, Bobby, could hit too.
That said, he ain't catchin' Henry Aaron.

It's sounds like thunder from above for me and then the occasional dog toy is tossed and it sounds like a bowling alley.
True story. I once lived in a three story apartment bulding. We lived on the middle floor. There was woman that lived above us, and you could tell the moment she got home. From her very first step on the stairs untill she finally sat her plump ass down, it was Cachunk, cachunk, cachunk.
Then there was two asshole guys who lived downstairs that would play music at aiplane decibles. I would get so pissed at them, that I, one night, decided to lay my large speakers flat on the floor and turned up the music rather on the high side.
To show their appreciation, I found my tires slashed a few weeks later.
We never lived in another high rise apartment, and shortly after got our own house.

After a senator from Massachusets, I believe, was damn near beaten to death by a southern senator with his cane, on the senate floor, John Brown, decided that all civility had been abandoned and went out with his sons and killed a few slave sympathizers in the Potowatamie creek massacre, at night, showing the south that those farleft freethinking antislavery wingnuts were capable of fighting back with more than words.
Yet John Brown is portrayed in history as embodying the fury of irrational zealotry. Of course, that was then, this is now. Where's the fury? Leave it to us to quibble.

They use frontrunners to frame the race, but then bring others in with less established voting records.

Once he gets into office he'll show his true colors and be the centrist he always was. I don't buy that.

Eviction letters go out to about 3,000 Katrina victims, who are told they're ineligible.
Julia East of Long Beach, Miss., returned to her own mobile home six days after Katrina to find it had been knocked off its foundation and flooded.
FEMA gave East, her husband and two sons a trailer, and $1,800 to fix up their mobile home. That was enough to clear away three large trees that fell on the home and to set it back on its blocks.
But East said water still pours down the inside of the walls when it rains. The family has been crammed into the 8-by-30-foot FEMA trailer, which they set up a few yards away.
Last month, East said, she received a phone call from FEMA asking if she was ready to give up the trailer. She panicked, and thought about the month the family spent living in tents on their property immediately after the storm.
East, 33, was able to find a lawyer who helped her file an appeal at no charge. She is frightened of what will happen if the appeal falls through. Her husband has a good job in a computer plant, but the family is still paying off debt from her cancer treatments.
"We can't finance a piece of bubblegum," she said.
If FEMA takes away her trailer, she said, she will unfold her tents once again.

"I feel sorry for people living in a dull world where they can't listen to the views of others,"
"Mr. McCain's panderthon grew even more absurd this week. He let the Wyly brothers — the Texas businessmen who financed a $2.5 million ad campaign in 2000 trashing his environmental record, a move that enraged Mr. McCain and spurred him to call the Wylys W.'s "sleazy Texas buddies" — hold a fund-raiser for him in Dallas."
Didn't the Wyly brothers also pay for the "John McCain voted against a cure for breast cancer" ad?
"But Bob Kerrey better summed up the feeling of many of us about the New McCain in the new issue of Men's Vogue. He mocked the senator's coziness with W., telling Ned Martel: "He kissed him! McCain let Bush's lips touch him. Yuck!""
From the rest of the reports on these two, Kerrey may have caught the Bush cooties from McCain this weekend.

As TKK pointed out, there was some wingnuttiness to it (e.g., virtually every female in the movie is an idiot, the only guy on the plane who wants to cooperate with the hijackers is European). It's a very tense movie, which is odd, considering that you know the end. TKK thinks it had to do with the grainy film, the hand-held camera and the music. It is all very tastefully done, if you ask me. Even the heroics of the passenger s are not over-done.
I think I would have to say that it's a pretty good movie. But I did not enjoy it. I really felt scared that I might pass out or keel over or something.

Something else. I think someone here saw it last week and said it is very anti-gov't. I would not say that, but I would say that if it is accurate, there was absolutely no coordination between the FAA and the military that day -- and that it was obvious that there was no plan in place for any sort of emergency in which they'd both be involved. No one seemed to no who was in charge. The military is trying to get shoot-down orders, but the planes they send to D.C., for example, are not armed.
