I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
Back away from the espresso beans.
I don't want to start any blasphemous rumors, but I think Marshall Wittman's got a sick sense of morality.
Huh - it really *is* lonely at the top.
Linkee no workee?
Getting closer.
.
Hmm...I get a "Service Unavailable" message from that link.
I'd appreciate it if someone could fill me in on what the Wittless One said.
Welcome to the New America, where the new religious fanatical fundamentalist movement is...Americanism, 9/11 being that traumatic moment when the religion took on a substance and a form around ideas that had been merely circling around in certain political religious zealots' heads.
Marshall, Marshall, Marshall...
what the Wittless One said.
Parenthetically, some on the left will offer the argument of moral equivalence that America tortures just as does our enemy. That is blasphemous and false.
Ah, got in that time.
So, criticizing the homeland, or the military, or the Emperor is 'blasphemous,' eh?
Now that is blasphemy.
Moron.
What we have here is not the Bull Moose, but the Bullshit Moose.
Now, I'm really out of here.
INCONCEIVABLE!
Um, what?
The PS to the next post on Busy,Busy,Busy seems to apply to this one too;
"Just so we understand the terms of this debate."
Whoops, someone does'nt want to be linked to. "Service Unavailable".
No more quoting Princess Bride now, I mean it!
Evening, freethinkers
Good weekends all around, I hope...
The neomonarchists are idolater. Or maybe the regime *is* god.

maybe the regime *is* god.
Its leader is a worm emperor...
The money quote for the service-impaired:
----
Plus: Parenthetically. Mr. Moose issues a pre-retort to what he predicts "some on the left" will say:
Parenthetically, some on the left will offer the argument of moral equivalence that America tortures just as does our enemy. That is blasphemous and false.
And false it would be, should anyone say it. Because America does not torture people the way its adversaries do. American exceptionalism would never stand for that. So, OK.
But, what's with the "blasphemous" bit? What is the sacred entity being blasphemed here - the Homeland? The Armed Forces? Someone who lives in the White House, maybe?
No, can't be. That would be idolatry.
----
America is our temple, and soon it will be time to run out the heathens.
Good thing it's not the season for bullmice.
Huh? It would be blasphemous to say this, even though the president has reserved the "right" to torture via a signing statement?
Marshall Witless is a towering dildo of douchebaggery.
Good thing it's not the season for bullmice.

I got in. Is that a picture of Mr. Moose, on the right? Sheesh, that guy looks pathetic. No wonder I never really liked reading his bullshit.
mouse bites can be very nastii....
But I thought the Clenis said that the era of godhead government was over.
According to Merriam-Webster's dictionary, blasphemous is defined as impiously irreverent. I don't think Marshall's smart enough to use it the word in that regard.

Thou shalt not have no other Clenii before me.

is this country supposed to turn into ancient Jeruselem for the security blanket mind cover of all these giver upper zealots? and their lyin mommas false dignity
No, can't be. That would be idolatry.
Yep. That's about what this country should be accused of right now.
It's okay, Dr. Debonair - you broke it.
Let's try this from Woolcott instead:
"...“But, then, Zuniga--let's cut the puerile nicknames of ‘DailyKos,’ ‘Atrios,’ ‘Instapundit’ et al., which are one part fantasy of nom de guerres, one part babytalk, and a third thuggish anonymity--believes so deafeningly and inflexibly that it's hard to tell what he believes at all, especially if you try to make out his conviction over the noisy bleating of his followers.”
While Siegel may enjoy repeating his own name like a mantra (“Lee Siegel Lee Siegel Lee Siegel…”), others are less fetishistic about their identities, and there’s no reason to cast sniffy aspersions on pseudonyms and alter egos. They cause so little harm. For decades the distinguished TRB column in The New Republic was anonymous (the longest tenure in the post held by Richard L Strout of the Christian Science Monitor), and if memory serves one of Siegel’s predecessors on the TV beat (Reed Whittemore?) deployed a pseudonym. If I’m wrong about that, I’ll admit my error and make a correction rather than whip up an additional supply of hot air and flying dust. In any event, it’s absurd to posit the publicity-whory Glenn Reynolds and Eschaton’s debonair Duncan Black (whose name is on his blog—some anonymity!) as murky figures of menace. As someone who occasionally contributes to The New Republic, I find this pissing match between the landed gentry and the mongrel hordes most distressing. There’s no reason why all of us can’t get along and join forces to defeat George Allen’s toupee, or at least acknowledge one another’s strengths/weaknesses/annoying habits without dragging the specter of Weimar across the carpet yet again. Perhaps in my dual role as high-priced call boy and nonprofit blogger, I should intercede and delegate myself as peacemaker between the two camps, performing shuttle diplomacy until reconciliation is achieved. Be sort of a goodwill ambassador. Because when you think of goodwill, you can’t help but think of me.?
Awwwww.....

Goddamn it.
The wingers remind me of the "In Living Color" skit with the prisoner, played by Damon Wayans, using words out of context. I think the punchline was it was for a Barbara Bush literacy program.
Back on topic, who the Hell is Marshall Whitman?
He used to work for Whizzo. If he offers you a sampler, just say no.
Spring Surprise indeed.

Don't bother being polite. As an example, here's what I put in my "Subject" line: "Blow It Out Your Ass, You Right-Wing Prick."
I don't give a fuck if he's "shocked" by my "incivility" or not. He's gonna know exactly how I feel whether he reads the actual message or not. Fuck these pricks. They deserve all the shit they get, and more.
Goddamn it.
I stand behind thee.

Jerome Armstrong uses astrology to plan his political stategy.
Like Ronald Reagan did?
Moronic brownshirt fuck heads explode in 4... 3... 2...
Bette Davis is eating the atmosphere over at TCM as Max Steiner provides the cafe society background music for big, floppy hats, two cigarettes in the dark and serious grimaces.
Now Voyager, Whitman's best phrase, a hundred years before DeLay.
Why is it the moment I start to post the Alphabet kid starts up with his Armstrong crap. Get over it!
Actually, now that I think of it, that should be:
atriosed.
Yeah.
Except, I don't think we should make peace with TNR. I think we should deliver our enemies bound in chains to the throne of the mighty KOS and then gleefuly dispose of them according to the fashion He shall dictate. All hail the mighty KOS.
(Hey if this is going to turn into a religious war I say we should be able to have fun with the slaughter too.)
Hey, whiskeyina!! Of course I'm putting fresh lemon (Meyer no less) in the cherry preserves. Also a couple of nutmegs and some cinnamon sticks. A little almond flavour too. It should be astounding! All done in a crockpot too - that's probably the best part of the whole thing. No burning.
Oh. Ooops. Way OT. Lost focus already.
Shoot me. I'm so obviously not interested in the democratic process, blaspheme against the state and am insufficiently elevated socially. Maybe I should go back to school and study hard and get another degree.
Going away now.

What NTodd said. *frowny face*
I'm still laughing over the Sunni/Sunny thing!
Remember, for the Bullshit Moose, 'good torture' is to 'bad torture' what 'good AIDS' is to 'bad AIDS'.
Kos is the new Clenis™.
You're both - Kos is a floor wax and a dessert topping!
Kos is the new Clenis™.
The Klenos?
Oh, and remember that the Bullshit Moose was once a Christian Coalition lobbyist. Says it all.
Actually, didn't Nancy handle all that for Ronnie- esp after his 1st term, when Alzheimer's kicked in? Remember his Notre Dame Speech, when he asked us to "Win one for the Gibbet?"
Ooops - you're both right...
Nothing worse than fucking up the set-up...
OT:
The worst thing about being married to a smart person is the tendency for overthinking a situation. My neighbor's car battery needs a jump. Instead of my husband just hooking up the jumper cables and helping her out, he has to think about why the relay isn't working. For God's Sake just help her with the damned car!
Other than the packaging, is there really a difference?
If you don't know a dread pirate from a buttercup I don't think I can help you.
I don't think there's much new- just a triple-dip by the studio.
It's really creepy how many so called adults are willing to see this country turned upside down for sake of a quasireligious Bush empire.

It is blasphemously raining here in BeanTown.
And if Bullshit refers to himself in the third person in my company, pseudonymous in nc will kick him down the nearest flight of stairs.
Oh I know the difference between a dread pirate and a buttercup!

NTodd,
I tried several permutations, and could not come up with one I liked. I figured someone would be able to do better than I was doing - it works for me.

We must move forward, not backward - upward, not forward - and always twirling, twirling, twirling, toward Freedom.
Apropos of nothing, I have a new podcast posted. Not even moderately blasphemous.

I liked the one where Ronnie misquoted John Adams and said "Facts are stupid things."
Really, this shit is right out of "The Onion":
...some on the left will offer the argument of moral equivalence that America tortures just as does our enemy. That is blasphemous and false. There is no earthly comparison between the misdeeds at Abu Ghraib and what was done to those two soldiers. Moreover, while American "torture" is a clear aberration, the terrorists employ the most heinous treatment as their standard method of operation.
Pricks like this deserve nothing but scorn, contempt, and derision from anyone with a brain in their head. Oh, and a good swift kick in the balls. How's that for "torture," motherfucker?
channeling Kristy MacColl
One hour, 12 minutes till Android Apocalypse!
Assrocket endorses the thoughts of a fellow warblogger on why the NYT publishes security leaks:
It's blackmail, pure and simple. Either let a Democrat into the White House, or we will continue to sabotage American security and, in effect, kill Americans. We will keep secrets when a Democrat is in office, but not a Republican. So we offer the American people a choice: Let the politicians we favor run the country, or we will help Al Qaeda murder you.
One hour, 12 minutes till Android Apocalypse!
That means only 3 hours and 12 minutes until the Redneck Pigroast next door finishes (I hope). I kid you not: that's what the sign says.
I really don't know how you guys can watch those Sci-Fi movies. Some are just really, really bad.

Criminy! Late afternoon hailstorm just appeared here in Boulder! Suckers are about 1" but pretty loosely packed.
I see where New Jersey may be the next state to recognize same sex marriages.

I have so much ironing to do you'd think I was six people sharing one wardrobe. I don't -know- how it gets to this stage, I really, really don't. Do you people sneak in and sleep over and use up all my pillowcases? Are you taking my sheets and using them for washrags on your enormous SUV's?
Just stop it, that's all. Just stop it.

And did you know that the line did no better than #46 on the AFI all-time best movie quotes list?
And did you know that the scene, only about ten minutes away on TCM, where Henried lights the two cigarettes--- just before Davis makes herself immortal with that tongue-tying line---that the scene was duplicated ten years earlier when George Brent had the honors and lit two cigarettes.
Irrespective though of that, nobody ever wagged or smoked a cigarette like Bette Davis, called 'Mother Goddamn," by everybody but Louella Parsons.
Do you people sneak in and sleep over and use up all my pillowcases? Are you taking my sheets and using them for washrags on your enormous SUV's?
Two words, GW...

All I can say is that I expect that when I get up tomorrow morning there will be a rigorously ironed stack of sheets AND pillowcases, wrapped in brown paper, outside the front gate. I don't require a note.

I frankly don't care who gets killed anywhere in Iraq or Afganistan as long as they died for their "God" or political ideal.

There's a house near work and they put their little Chihauhau mix in it's kennel every day. He would go nuts, barking at me every tiem I walked by, so, because I love dogs, I bought some doggy treats for him.
It took two trips with the biscuits to get him settled into liking me. He loves the treats and waits for me as I come down the sidewalk - tail a'waggin, just a nice little dog waiting for a treat.
Takes the treats, nice as you please, then goes nuts and barks at me when I stand up and walk away, as if I'd thrown a rock at him.
I never thought about it in socio-political terms, but yeah... it sounds familiar...

As in all things if you have to be tortured, you want to be tortured by Americans (or their designates).
American torture is good for you! It will make a better person of you and whatever you say will be the "revealed truth," because god is on our side.
Yeah.... right.....
monica, i have a great copy of BLACK NARCISSUS on dvd. it's another criterion release - fabulous transfer. there is also a relatively recent interview with one of the actresses who played one of the nuns.

Oops, sorry. When I'm drunk, I sometimes end up in the wrong place...
No. This "Black Narcissus" is set in the Himilayas.
The Bush Administration has made grievous errors from the very beginning of the post-invasion period. The most disastrous mistake has been the lack of adequate troop levels. And even today we may need more troops to restore order particularly in Baghdad.
And when we don't get a draft to get those soldiers, it'll be the fault of the politicians! And the people!
But never the plan! The Plan is perfect!
It's people who screw it up.

NTodd, Blaspheming Fascist
Yeah, I live in Kansas. The people are nice enough, and they're not stupid, but they have conventional wisdom and religion drilled so far into their heads that facts rarely change their minds. My cousin has two sons, one going into the Marines and one going into the Guard. I don't even know what to say to her.
The OTHER Neighbor has a husband, I believe.
Thank you! Jeebus, I was wondering if anybody would finish the fucking line.

Deborah Kerr's lips are really chapped.
Because America does not torture people the way its adversaries do.
that is purest bullshit. what possible difference does it make whether America tortures people the way its adversaries do--especially to the people tortured? what is the difference, in principle, between waterboarding and boring small holes with an electric drill?
the difference between "Murkins" and its adversaries should be that USers don't torture people.
you have only to rewrite the offending sentence to reveal its speciousness:
"America's adversaries do not torture people the wat America does."

Orwell predicted this little thing, too. Torture by the enemy is an offense against all decency. Torture by our side is necessary for the defense of our way of life.

I was staying with my parents once and got a movie, the title of which was similar to "Working Women" which is a porn flick.
The video store screwed up and switched the cds.
As soon as the movie started I said, "This sounds like porn movie music". Both my parents heads turned towards me.
Ooops
Well it got really funny when we realized that it WAS a porn film.

It's really diabolically orwellian how Bushboy & the Goopers have changed the definition of words in America.
Bushboy & the Chin were cowards during the Viet war, but they were able to tag Kerry, anything but a coward, with that label.
Bushboy has been fiscally irresponsible and yet they continue to sell their tax cuts for the rich as if deficits don't matter!
And when it comes to depravity and deceit they are the Bushboy regime is the worst in American history and yet, because the terrorists are so vicious and brutal, the terrorism of the Bushboy junta is excused or ignored by our MSM.
If these bastards aren't removed from power soon, Big Brother Bushboy and his Brownshirted buffoons will be expecting us all to say, "Seig Heil!" and like it.

We didn't get here because of them.
They can praise us, they can trash us, they can ignore us, and ultimately none of that will matter as long as we keep doing what we've been doing.
Whether we succeed or not will depend on our own efforts. Not those of anyone else.

I can't believe Kos is still posting about the non-scandal.
It's not going to affect a damn thing. He's his own boss. People will still read his site. People will still read Eschaton, and Greenwald, and FDL, and The General, and MyDD, AmericaBlog, Rising Hegemon, NTodd, The Smirking Chimp, CorrenteWire, First Draft, Whiskey Ashes, and every other liberal blog in the world. Because the ideas on these sites are usually right, and won't be said by anyone else with a microphone (except mebbe Molly Ivins and Krugman).
All the TNR death throe attacks won't reduce the demand for the discussion these sites produce. The eyes will always be there, and no hail marys from obsolete "sensible" pundits will change that.

NY Times columnist Brooks attacks 'Kingpin' of Daily Kos
In Sunday's paper, conservative New York Times columnist David Brooks attacks the founder of Daily Kos for acting like a "Kingpin" who "commands his followers" to "unleash their venom on those who stand in the way," RAW STORY has found.
"The Keyboard Kingpin, aka Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, sits at his computer, fires up his Web site, Daily Kos, and commands his followers, who come across like squadrons of rabid lambs, to unleash their venom on those who stand in the way," writes Brooks. "And in this way the Kingpin has made himself a mighty force in his own mind, and every knee shall bow."

While there may be a valid distinction to be drawn between, say, a war and an occupation, from the outside,
from the inside, i'd hafta say, it is a distinction without a difference.
that said, i do think that, since we are on the outside, we should honor the differences that make a difference...
the 'war' in iraq ended when, from the deck of that carrier, Bush declared the end of major combat operations, and proclaied 'mission accomplished.' since that date (April, 2003 sometime), USer forces have been engaged an an occupation.
since 1945, anyway, a war is state military action waged against every citizen of any nation against whom war has been declared. USers at least claim they are NOT at war with the Iraqis, in the sense that every Iraqi allegedly is NOT viewed a priori as an enemy...

What is this "our" culture that these guys keep talking about? I believe that some cultures are better than others. I believe that the neo-conservative culture is essentially the same as the "terrorist" culture. They both apparently are ok the with the idea of arbitrary killing/murder of civilians/children. The culture I believe I'm part of takes seriously the idea of "thou shalt not kill". The Right keeps insisting that they're somehow different from the terrorists, I'm just not seeing it.

sallyh, speaking of android apocalypse, you should see a new korean film called NATURAL CITY. it is set in the year 2080. the korean security forces are sent in to do battle with renegade battle cyborgs who wish to remain alive. it's a tip of the hat to BLADE RUNNER, but it is a rather interesting film itself.

"Two other traits of fascism are its hatred of the processes of politics, and the knockabout origins of its adherents. Communism was hatched by elites. Fascism was born along the drifting paths of rootless men, often ex-soldiers who had fought in the First World War and been demobilized. They turned European politics into a madhouse of deracinated ambition.”

I like clean sheets - but I don't understand the ironing part. I've never seen wrinkles in my sheets when they come out of the dryer. (but I've never looked closely, either.)
I hadn't seen this trailer for "An Inconvenient Truth" yet.
Al Gore: "Yes, in this movie I play a streetwise pimp, with a hybrid pimpmobile."
Is it barbarity to kill the soldiers who are occupying your country using whatever weapons you have at your disposal? Or is it barbarity to invade a country on fabricated pretenses and in the process kill 30,000-100,000 civilians, some in a manner resembling one of Dick Cheney's canned hunts? Let me add that the army doing the invading comes from a country that now has both a Paris Hilton video and Bill O'Reiley on TV. I suspect Marshall is not real sure what barbarity is either.
Because in all seriousness, he seems to think that if you kill people indescriminately with very fancy weapons (as opposed to IEDs), this makes you noble instead of barbarous. And he does not seem to recognize than torturing people -- like we are doing -- makes you barbaric.

I should admit that I'm a rather messy person.
At a critical moment in our planet's life, we had a choice between someone who is prepared to deal with global warming and an oilman. We got the wrong guy.
For so many reasons, this one included, we got the wrong guy.

E-Mails Detail Abramoff Requests, Contacts
By JOHN SOLOMON, Associated Press Writer
2 hours ago
WASHINGTON - Wanted: Face time with President Bush or top adviser Karl Rove. Suggested donation: $100,000. The middleman: lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Blunt e-mails that connect money and access in Washington show that prominent Republican activist Grover Norquist facilitated some administration contacts for Abramoff's clients while the lobbyist simultaneously solicited those clients for large donations to Norquist's tax-exempt group.
Those who were solicited or landed administration introductions included foreign figures and American Indian tribes, according to e-mails gathered by Senate investigators and federal prosecutors or obtained independently by The Associated Press.
"Can the tribes contribute $100,000 for the effort to bring state legislatures and those tribal leaders who have passed Bush resolutions to Washington?" Norquist wrote Abramoff in one such e-mail in July 2002.
"When I have funding, I will ask Karl Rove for a date with the president. Karl has already said 'yes' in principle and knows you organized this last time and hope to this year," Norquist wrote in the e-mail.
White House says would have cost 5 million Americans their jobs.
That's also a fucking lie on the face of it, supported by zero evidence.
We have bleedage!
Ok, so it's a beautiful summer day in Seattle and I'm way laid to a thread, so sue me. but...
Blasphemous
I do not think that word means what Marshall Wittman thinks it means.
Then there is this.
Parenthetically, some on the left will offer the argument of moral equivalence that America tortures just as does our enemy. That is blasphemous and false.
I think that Wittman's problem is this, the word that he doesn't understand is torture. And no God of Mercy should forgive us for throwing up a cloud of bullshit to obscure the meaning of that word.
I really hate killing anything. Well, except ticks.
mer
Well, they're a danger to you. With stinging bugs I like to out-source the bug-killing to my husband. But that's because 1) I'm scared I'll get stung and 2) I hate killing anything with an exoskeleton. It's that sound/feel - ugh.

NTodd--need a care package or ten? How're the kids?
I think that Wittman's problem is this, the word that he doesn't understand is torture.
Actually, I think the word he doesn't understand is blasphemy. He's quite right in saying we don't torture prisoners like our enemy. They're limitited to primitive, unimaginative techniques like burning, beheading, drawing and quartering, bamboo splints and the like. Being the greatest nation on Earth as we are, we have developed far superior methods of torture to these. With our superior grasp of the science and technology of pain and suffering, we can get anybody to admit to anything.

Any recommendations on things to see? Things to avoid? Coffee places that aren't Starbucks?
Well, it's kinda hard to tell people what to avoid, I think the Space Needle is overpriced, but the views are incredible if you get a clear day.
Go to the Ballard Locks, it's on standard tourist buslines. In August it's the height of the salmon runs and they have great viewing windows of the salmon ladder. At times there are thousands of salmon per day passing through the fish ladder. (The ladder is the passage from salt to fresh water.)
If you have a rental car, a clear day and have time for a long drive, go to the sunrise area of Mt. Rainier and take a short hike to a view of the Emmons glacier, and then if you're a real road warrior drive to the Spirit Lake area of Mt. St. Helens and check out the devastation that is still devastating to see 26 years later. The lake is still about 1/3 covered with trees that washed down from the hillsides when the lake was blown out of its basin from the blast of the eruption. It's still hard to fathom that place.
