GravatarIsraeli raid kills three Palestinians

A six-year-old Palestinian girl, her elder brother and her mother have been killed in a new Israeli air strike on their house east of Gaza City.

Medical sources said that the Saturday evening aerial attack came in the neighbourhood of Shajaya, near the Karni border crossing on Gaza's eastern border with Israel.

Hospital officials said six people were wounded.

The Israeli army confirmed an air strike in the area, but denied hitting any homes.

So tell us then, o wise one, why is it that only another Democrat was the target of Lieberman's agression?

Where was this fighting spirit during the debate with Cheney?

Where was this outrage and contempt when Valerie Plame Wilson's cover was blown? Or when our troops did not have sufficient armor or equipment to do their jobs?

I waited to hear eternal words of ringing condemnation from Senator Lieberman when Congress was called back to pass a special bill just for the Schiavo case. I'm still waiting.

GravatarAw crap, another icon from my youth has died.

RIP, Frank Zeidler and thank you.

Frank Zeidler, a former Milwaukee mayor who was the last Socialist to run a major American city, has died. He was 93.

Zeidler died late Friday of congestive heart failure and diverticulitis, hospital spokesman Gregg Hartzog said. He led Milwaukee from 1948 through 1960.

His three terms as mayor were marked by large-scale construction of public housing, creation of the first educational television station in Wisconsin and city beautification programs. He also made strong statements on behalf of civil rights as Milwaukee became the 11th-largest city in the United States by the end of his term, Jeanne Zeidler said.

Elitist: anyone who didn't vote for Bush.


GravatarNTodd, did Toby post after you found that quote? I don't think so.

Oh, Tobes was such a big, brave stand-up kinda guy. He promised to admit to the quote if anyone found it. NTodd found it and Tobes ran away. He is the very definition of a coward.

GravatarKee-rist. I just did a little math and figured out the 59 Million is less than 20% of the populatioin of the USA.

It's been worse.


GravatarI define an elitist as someone who automatically assumes that they are superior to others by way of their social station, by birth or by membership in some special clique.

E.g., Ivy League lawyers assume they are elite by station because of where they went to school, not by merit.


GravatarYou know, it's a matter of record that "anonymous" has never denied that it found a fallen nest of baby birds in its back yard and put it in its microwave, just to see what would happen.

Gravatarskeptikal, I'll ask this again;
What are you proposing and doing yourself?


Gravatarthe scariest thing about that press conference was when he got all pissy at Suzanne Malveaux, and Brooks and Shields agreed that SM was being rude, and provoked teh Preznint.


GravatarAnd some of them were wearing them with these bits of heiniousity. -res ipsa loquitur

A local company in Boulder is responsible for those. And though they look just fine on kids and are very pragmatic, there is not a man alive who looks good in lime green or lemon yellow ventilated plastic shoes.

GravatarWhat did Malveaux ask Fredo?

If, given that he hasn't changed his NK policy in six years and things have only gotten worse, maybe he should change that policy.

The only president we've got responded:
"I don't know Suzanne. Maybe you know more about reducing nucular weapons than I do" and after some incoherent rambling: "I know some people don't see North Korea as a serious issue, but I do".

So of course, journamalistic etiquette was the appropriate matter for discussion,.

GravatarThe problem isn't modernity in terms of devices and pollution or waste. It is the failure to go past just good enough and truly engineer things to be efficient including using alternative sources. It happens, but not fast enough and definitely without committment. I can't see any reason that cars cannot be made across the board with real fuel efficiency and quality. It all comes down to profit and desire.

GravatarI heard something about an initiation and a hat, but they weren't pulling things out of it.

I heard they were all wearing Gauchos and Jellys, smoking haughty Gallois and call us over-Fridigaired louts.

But I could be wrong.

Because much to my horror, turns out I'm just po' dumb 'Murrican lefty Trustifarian, so WTF do I know about anything?

I could do that, but not until after about 3 PM. I could do the 3:05 @ Lincoln Square.


GravatarSorry about my misspelled post.

Thinking about Abrienne Barbeau always messes up my hands.


GravatarAdrienne Barbeau's performance in CannonBall Run was exquisite and understated. You never caught her acting as she pulled the zipper of her jumpsuit down to dazzle those cops. In the moment for the whole movie. That's why CBR II just couldn't measure up.


Gravatar I believe that as part of their initiation process, new trolls must pick a word or phrase out of a hat, and then troll obsessively about that word or phrase for not less than 24 hours.

If Stoli is part of the rest of your life, then, yes, it will. It will cover everything, especially air conditioning (which, by the way, is the greatest invention of the twentieth century after mass vaccination).

Yup. See Broder, David, and really pretty much every establishment pundit. The youngsters take their cues from the old guard, a la Richard Cohen:there is no greater sin than shrillness or {{shudder}} Democratic partisanship!! because after all, Tom DeLay is a fringe figure and Karl Rove doesn't count because Andy Card is from Massachussettts (summary of a Broder column from last year), Then there's the Punkinnhedds, who are just Bush fellaters, obscured by the sound and fury of FoxNews.

I'm sitting in a building in a strip center right now. We have two openings to admit air: a front door, and a back door.

Gravatar What is a "PUNKAH WALLAH"?
Doug,


punkah

wallah.

Generally, a little stringey indigene, crosslegged, pulling at the rope guided punkah. A wallah is Hindi for 'fellow'. A washing-wallah, a cleaning-wallah, an ironing-wallah.... I would like to employ a punkah and a wallah.


Gravatarskeptikal has given us much to think about, and think about it I shall-- in air-conditioned comfort, the speaker's caustic disapprobation notwithstanding.

And to follow up on Atrios' observation, there is certainly a Continental disdain for the Amerikan love of artificial cold and its chief product: ice.

Not coincidentally, back in the day, this was a favorite theme for first-time twentysomething visitors to Europe upon their return to the US. Perhaps it still is. Newly-refined friends and relatives, would briefly but pointedly switch to drinking un-iced beverages in small, modest, tasteful drinking glasses, to demonstrate their solidarity with the refined European nose-wrinkling disdain for Amerikan Yahoos ceaselessly slurping a toxic tide of insipid artificial and sugary beverages out of immense tumblers filled with deleterious chunks of .

There is the obvious correlation between technology making cold enviroments commonplace and wealth; i.e., I suppose that part of the bitter incredulity and resentment for ice-owners stems from the practical truth that ice and refrigeration, including A/C, requires technology and a physical/economic infrastructure to support it.

And I believe that there is a strong visceral moral repugnance towards enjoying ice and definitely A/C. Again, there's a strong economic factor; my parents treated A/C as if it was the devil's handiwork-- not only ridiculously extravagant, but somehow indecent or improper, like a starlet owning an ocelot.

There's certainly a lot of ready-made stoic self-denial; the Good Lord made you to sweat, suffering builds character, pampering oneself is ruinous. But with my parents, this distaste extended even to the use of fans. We had 'em and used 'em, but my mother was horrified when I bought a small plastic-bladed fan for my bedroom windowsill and left it on all night. It would catch on fire, or I'd get pneumonia.

Yeah, there's an Old-World distaste for refrigeration technology that never goes away.


GravatarLittle Brøther is right. My father still believes air conditioning is sissified, like men using hair dryers. Possibly even a moral weakness.


Gravatarwould briefly but pointedly switch to drinking un-iced beverages in small, modest, tasteful drinking glasses

It couls also have something to do with the fact that the colder something is, the less taste it has, hence the toxic sludge of artificial flavour and sugar.


GravatarDo people at White Shoe law firms really wear white shoes?

No, but I've been seeing a disturbing rash of seersucker in my white-shoe Southern firm lately. Even pink seersucker, which really makes me wonder what this white-haired genteel partner is up to on his weekends.

GravatarBiden's view: Senator and presidential candidate on Iraq war,
Bush's counterattack on critics and Democrats and abortion
Wednesday, November 16, 2005
"It's time to change, not to stay the course, change the course.
The president has two-and-a-half months to get it right or we're
going to be in real trouble ... [Without progress] we will continue
to have Americans killed in iraq with no clear strategy for victory
or two, which I predict will happen, the American people saying,
'Enough is enough is enough. Bring them home even though we know
bad things will happen to us as consequence of Iraq being in chaos.'"


GravatarMac vs. PC


I don't see whay anyone would particularly care anymore, since a Mac these days IS a PC, for all intents and purposes - you just need a copy of Windows now that Macs have Intel chips.

Best of both worlds for a $50-$100.00 premium.

Are you a Good Leak or a Bad Leak?


GravatarI ain't looking through all these threads but bea arthur came to fame and won a tony singing and capering with zero mostel in the original broadway production of a "funny thing happened on the way to the forum." think rosie o'donnel played the part in the do-over of a few years ago.

GravatarMaybe the idea of blogging is getting information from reliable sources on an important topic and posting it; ranting and raving without backing up your arguments with facts is just blogomasterbation.

We have an opportunity to finally confront the right wing extremists on talk radio and Fox News with a powerful weapon: a post that reveals the truth behind the loud, endless rhetoric.

That's what bloggers could do; investigate and post stories that arent being broadcast on the MSM and less ranting.
