Again?
quintuple espresso again, Atrios?

Woohoo!
So close and yet so far.
...glug! The man's on fire. Um, er, uh... "strategery" for what, again?
Atrios has to drink all the espresso. They won't let him take it onto the plane.
damn. i liked the kitten thread
Har! good one!
...or in other words "I have yet to hear pro-war voices on the right propose a positive strategy for defeating Islamist terror at its roots, or call for democratization of the Arab Muslim world."

Ah yes. This has been earmarked for another post.

I shouldn't look at the news. The good news joke cnn.com reports is that them dam' Frenchies are close to a cease fire between Israel and Hezbollah.

"My only substantive quarrel with this is as follows: the proclaimed Bush policy was not mere deployment of brute force, torture, bombs and swagger..." --Andrew Sullivan
As if those would be an acceptable adjunct to what Sully signed up for: creating "modernity and democracy in Iraq."
And besides, who could expect Sullivan, a political pundit, to suspect there would be a gap between rhetoric and action? Nobody, since criticisms of past U.S. policy so often proceed from the loony left.
"But, for all Cheney's and Rumsfeld's flaws, they are at least proposing something serious, however ineptly carried out."
By now, Sullivan admits that words and deeds don't match, yet he is still impressed with the seriousness of the delivery. And the neckties.
He is infected with moral cretinism. No human cost is too great, if at the end he can delude himself that he was serious and made only honest mistakes.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry over the Editors' proposal though.
excerpt:
"Eventually, of course, people are going to realize that chewing on broken glass really isn’t particularly effective either as an anti-terror policy, or as a way of promoting democracy abroad. Actually, you’d have to be kind of a retard to think otherwise. So maybe you should stop now. But! you can point out To stop chewing this glass bottle would show weakness to the terrorists! It would send a signal that all the terrorists would have to do is stab our mouths with glass fragments and we would give into their demands! No, regardless of whether or not there was ever any terror in that bottle - and hindsight, I feel compelled to remind you, should not be mistaken for wisdom - it is now vitally important that you keep chewing until al-Qaeda disbands and every country in the world is peaceful and free. We must stay the course."
"But, for all Cheney's and Rumsfeld's flaws, they are at least proposing something serious, however ineptly carried out."
RUTHLESSLY serious, even.
"The inconceivable sight of Tucker dancing with Pam!"

"But, for all Cheney's and Rumsfeld's flaws, they are at least proposing something serious, however ineptly carried out."
Uhh... evn if the Bush-Cheney policy had been carried out with complete eptness, it still would not have done anything about the root causes of terrism or brought democracy to the middle east.
Whatta wanker.
My strategy for terror involves putting all the hawks and neocons on a rocket bound for the sun.
I bet they'll be good and terrified before they get there.
And hot. They'll be hot.
you go Diane! Tell that horrible Atrios that the cat thread didn't last long enough
Sully, instead of trying to merely devise a progressive democratic strategy to reform the middle east, I've decided to devise a strategy to reform the entire time-space continuum. I'll get back to you when I'm finished.

very nice Friday Cat Blogging
I hate it when I type a couple of paragraphs on a thread, and then when I refresh there is a new thread. However, I get over it pretty quickly. I'm easy. Keeps me from getting some awlful disease--so far.
I think the press is way behind the democrats and even further behind the public.
I think the ship-sailed on the Bush Administration the last few months. I don't think they can save themselves short of catching or killing Osama.
So look for that to be claimed about November 1.
Until the opposition party presents a progressive, democratic agenda to reform the Middle East
Leave 'em alone. Pull out of Iraq tomorrow and let 'em kill themselves off or form a shining beacon of democracy, whichever they want--we're not in a position to influence that anyway. Tell Israel to either go back to the 1967 borders or cut 'em off--they can take care of themselves and there's no reason for us to be absorbing the ill will they generate. Pour money into alternative energy sources so we can shorten the time until we get to tell the Saudis to go fuck themselves.
If and when mass terrorism (nuclear or otherwise) occurs, respond quickly and appropriately, and if we can prove to a reasonable degree that there was state involvement, bomb the living shit out of them. If we can prove Osama or some other individual was responsible, hunt his ass down and kill him and his associates. In the meantime, step up electronic and human intelligence to try to break up terror plots like we've been doing. Take the 9/11 commission recommendations on transportation and industrial security to heart instead of blowing them off like the Chimpster's been doing for the last five years. Stop wasting time, lives and money paying Halliburton to build movie theaters and heliports in Iraq and instead use the resources to actually concentrate on terrorism.
And take George Bush and Dick Cheney out of the White House and smack them upside the proverbial head. How fucking up in Iraq is helping fight terror I have no idea, but the bottom line is that if some whackjobs want to blow up an airplane, our having half a million troops in Iraq isn't going to make fuck-all difference. Either the police or intelligence services (which can operate under proper legal authority, regardless of Bigtime's fantasies to the contrary) catch them or they don't, but our presence in Iraq is just taking time and money away from doing something useful.
I can't imagine getting on a plane without lip balm and a bottle of water.

Jennifer, there's certainly something going on. I've been a side target ever since my first go-round with winning an EEO lawsuit - and this year I get a demand that I file a specific form to cover $775 in unreimbursed business expenses - $775!!!! when their own damned regulation stipulates that if x=y I DO NOT FILE THAT FORM and how I justify a deduction that is expressly covered in an obscure IRS regulation. All I could do is is quote their own regs back at them, precisely, with printouts of the .pdfs. But something's definitely up. $775 indeed.

Does this really call for a counter-vision? Doesn't it simply call for flat-out rejection?

IN fact, I have not traveled three feet from my house without a tube of Carmex somewhere on my person.

They can take my Carmex when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.
I can't imagine getting on a plane without lip balm and a bottle of water.
Listen, I gave up flying to Oz when they said I couldn't smoke on airplanes any more. Then I gave up smoking and was all set to fly to Oz, when they said I couldn't get up and wait for a loo.

To quote Gertrude Stein on Bennett
Cerf:
"You really are quite the stupidest
young man."
And by the way, Sully's initial premise (not surprisingly) is ridiculous. Since when has the GOP been tough on terror? Osama's still out there; we still haven't done jack shit to secure ports, factories, or our borders; and just this week we learn that our aviation security hasn't been worth a crap--the only reason no one has blown up a plane with liquid explosives yet is because no one has tried. Where's all this money for "scenario" think-thinking been going if the first time someone at DHS thought about liquid explosive threats was when the Brits called and said they'd picked up some ignorant whackjobs who were going to do it? Bush's "terrorist flypaper" claim is nothing more than a rationalization for why he hasn't given up on Rummy and Wolfie's 6-week-or-less war yet, three years later. He's banging on a hornets' nest more than he's laying out flypaper, and anyone with two brain cells to rub together knows it. Meanwhile, he's pissed off every moderate Arab leader and he's letting Israel abandon any pretense at achieving a lasting peace either with the P.A. or with the Jordanians.
You don't get points for "doing something" when all you're doing is fucking up.
Actually, that was mean. I have been on a private plane exactly two times in my entire life. Both times were awesome, however in this era of peak oil, I am very unlikely to ever fly on a private plane again.
It just ain't right.
I mean, NTodd just described a situation in which empty bottles are very real problem that needed to be dealt with. And he didn't deal with it by invading his neighbor's house or nuking his own. He simply took out the empties. QED.

What people, the Republicans, or the world?
I take comfort in something that Eckhart Tolle said, 'the world is at once, getting better and worse, simultaneously.'
The problem today is that our collective dysfunction has garnered sufficient strength to destroy the planet. Whereas in the past, we were still dysfunctional, but we couldn't do all that much harm.
On a larger scale, this is of course the forces of 'yin and yang' being played out, all in search of equilibrium. Right now the pedulum is swinging our way, I believe. We've gone way too far to the right. So I think that nature, through us, is pulling back, hard left, just to get things back to the center.
But I don't know how to get people to stop hating us.

UN-Lebanese Force Would Patrol Border Under Measure (Update3)
Aug. 11 (Bloomberg) -- A draft United Nations resolution crafted by the U.S. and France seeks an end to fighting between Israel and Hezbollah and the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Lebanon as a combined UN and Lebanese force steps in.
The measure would boost an existing UN observer contingent in Lebanon to as many as 15,000 troops, according to the draft resolution. Those forces, which would have an expanded military mandate, would assist 15,000 Lebanese soldiers to be sent into southern Lebanon.
``The two forces will work together in order to achieve what is necessary to give control of Lebanon back to the government of Lebanon,'' U.K. Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett said on CNN. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has accepted the terms, the Associated Press reported, citing Israeli officials it didn't identify.
The initiative would create a buffer zone to protect northern Israel from Hezbollah rocket attacks and would allow Lebanon to exert its authority in the area.

There actually is a serious answer -- which should in no way be taken as implying I think the Editirs post is anything other than absofuckinglutely brilliant -- but the answer involves swallowing pride, eating crow, admitting error, and having to suffer other people do the superior dance and celibrate a victory over us, and since that won't ever be entertained as even a remote possibility, what's the point of going into detail? You see, we need to get over the idea that others are neccesarly constrained to agree that the point in history at which a conflict began is determined by us, and by us alone. There's ya'll's first clue right thar. Well, I don't mean you all here of course, but then you know that.

In america, we tell ourselves we always do the right thing, but what we really do is the RIGHT THING FOR US, and fuck the rest of the world.
There's a reason people hate us.
suggest we quit bombing them and killing their children.
And I suggest we stop giving bombs and aircraft to other nations that indulge in bombing them and killing their children.

and on another note we should stop thinking to ourseleves that our democracy is perfect, the be all and end all.
Until we make all airline travellers board naked, we can't be certain we are safe from terrorism.
No, we will need to turn ourselves inside-out.

I view this war and the end of it as "bizarre" because the war's ambitions were so grand and sweeping from the start-- the amount of brutality and slaughter required to accomplish them were far in excess of what could be tolerated -- that it was almost designed to fail from the start. One could say exactly that of the general neoconservative view on all matters (Iraq, transforming the Middle East, regime change in Iran, etc.)
i went over to greenwald's blog to say Anonymous Liberal had a good post on this. instead, i found a new post by glen about israels defeat and the neocons wailing and moaning. to me it will be good enuf if they quit the bombing, and stop killing each other. tho i'm not so sure it's over yet.
personally i'd like to see all these rightards hauled off to gitmo and force fed on a diet of glass shards for the rest of their days.

Billmon, from the archives:
I'm not absolutely positive, but I think I met Anne E. Kornblut at a dinner party in Washington some years back. If she's the woman I'm thinking of, she was both stupid and arrogant, and quite full of herself for being a New York Times reporter (it goes with the territory, I suppose.) She was also quite clearly a Republican -- albeit an appropriately moderate, inside-the-beltway specimen of the breed. Too moderate to be covering for the likes of Karl Rove, I would have thought.

But something is sick within the Muslim mind at this moment in time, and it is not Islamophobic to say so.

Fuck the Exodus Movement!
The American Psychological Association on Friday issued a stinging rebuke of the so-called ex-gay movement following a demonstration by members of several organizations that claim homosexuality is a choice that can be cured.
A small group representing the National Association of Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) and Exodus International demonstrated in front of the APA convention in New Orleans Friday.
"While the APA continues to play politics with social issues unrelated to its mission, thousands of current and potential patients are being harmed," said Alan Chambers, president of Exodus International, a national 'ex-gay' organization.
"We represent those across the country who struggle with unwanted same-sex attraction, desire the help of skilled professionals and are instead, being discriminated against because their personal beliefs do not align with that of the APA."
In 1974, the American Psychological Association ceased listing homosexuality as a mental disorder.
The protestors demanded that the APA change its current position.
Immediately after the protest the APA issued a statement reaffirming its stand.
"For over three decades the consensus of the mental health community has been that homosexuality is not an illness and therefore not in need of a cure," the statement said..

MR. SNOW: Well, notice that actually, none of us have made a hard prediction, because it is diplomacy, and a lot of times diplomacy is a bit like a taffy pull, in that you think you may have something that seems to be right on the verge of being completed, and it just gets extended a bit.
i>But something is sick within the American mind at this moment in time, and it is not anti-American to say so. The major source of the mass murder and threat of mass murder in the world right now is rooted in America. It is waged in the name of America; it is justified by reference to American "values"; it is a fundamentally religious movement.
Funny how you can re-write that....

"Our poll shows the war is creating a unity in the Democratic Party, and the Lamont candidacy both fed off that unity and helped it grow stronger. In a curious way, Joe Lieberman also helped unify the Democrats - an overwhelming majority (71%) said they were unhappy with his decision to run as an independent in the November general election."

I can't remember if I mentioned a conservative friend (heavy on Faith, which is okay with me) yesterday who has both begun making comment and asking questions. But for this person to start sounding like a real thinker is amazing. We had several conversations today on the administration, totalitarian states and competency of this government and execution of the war. The effect is still in full swing. Comments I am used to making and then receiving cynical or derisive responses to, now garner a bit of reflection and constructive addition. I am going to have to ask, but still a bit afraid of making him defensive and then running back into his dark hole.
The American Psychological Association on Friday issued a stinging rebuke of the so-called ex-gay movement following a demonstration by members of several organizations that claim homosexuality is a choice that can be cured.

Lemme Caution: we're alienating a world full of people we'd like to do business with and whose resources we require unless we radically change the way we live. We're spending our treasure while demonstrating the limits of our power. We're using up our military, which circumscribes our freedom of action. We're creating enemies from which we will require a defense, and despoiling an environment which will require remediation, absent either of which we will pay a dear economic and political price.
Then again, if all of that isn't so complicated, perhaps we could do the right thing simply because it's the right thing to do. My point was that we need not fall back on such nonsense unless we want to to justify a change of course and an utter condemnation of the current one...

No it's not. It's pundit BS, and not reflected across the country, where people know that 'stopping the fuckup' is better than 'the fuckup'.
"In all seriousness"
The Editor's point is very serious and is correct: Thrashing around and killing masses of people and squatting in their countries and maintaining a constant national fear-boner is no strategy. In fact, its worse than no strategy.
The Lamont victory showed one thing clearly: the American people have concluded that Bush is fucking things up, in his echochamber and beyond its borders, and it's time to stop.
Just stop.
The strategy is this: Stop killing everyone, and accept, once and for all, that no matter how many guns and bombs you posess, the prosecution of the US "national interest" by force or coercian stops at the US border. Beyond there, you must ask, and make mutually agreeable deals and be prepared to accept "no" for an answer, just like everyone else.
Then the world will cooperate with you. Terrorism serves to benefit no-one in a truly free market, but so long as America believes that "our oil (for example) is under them Ay-rab's sand", and you are not prepared to simply pay market price for it, then no-one in the market will stand by you, any more than they would stand by a shoplifting rubber-check bouncer.

What a beautiful baby, Snark Hunter. Great head of hair.
Let's do nothing. Woo Hoo!
no lets do something effective, not make things worse like the Republicans are doing. Lets take the issue away from them. Most people, exce,pt for the truly ignorant and delusional are starting to uderstand that the current policy is making the world less safe.
First thing to do is stop digging.
Deep in the guts of that big Washington Post poll today is a startling number that didn't make it into the Post's accompanying article. It reads: Which political party, the (Democrats) or the (Republicans), do you trust to do a better job handling the U.S. campaign against terrorism?
The answer: Democrats 46%, Republicans 38%

“I still remember those distressing scenes: blood, torn limbs, women and children massacred. All over the place, houses were being destroyed and tower blocks were collapsing, crushing their residents, while bombs rained down mercilessly on our homes. . . .

May the world we know now not be the one she knows.
Ed Rodgers is a shitstain. And that's being generous.
Ed Rollins, on the other hand, was gaining credibility with me, cause when he's on Lou Dobbs, he's one of the few republicans that acknowledges that Bush is a full-fledged fucked-up, muthafucka.
However, he predicted a Lieberman victory over Lamont today.
He's been right about many things lately. And I think he truly believes it, and this troubles me slightly.
holy crap...excuse if this is posted, just saw this at Kos:
"Today on CNN Headline News, anchor Chuck Roberts discussed the impact of the foiled British terror plot with Hotline senior editor John Mercurio. Roberts asked Mercurio, "How does this factor into the Lieberman/Lamont contest? And might some argue, as some have already argued, that Lamont is the al Qaeda candidate?"

That's the analysis I've been hearing. Except he can't stop on his own and admit defeat, so he's hoping for the US to *force* him. And the US can't be seen to be forcing Israel to do anything, because of domestic political considerations, so they are putting it all on the UN.

Not the Cheney inner circle. They need to PROVE that Vietnam was winnable by developing a clusterfuck (Iraq) and then taking it to them.
Of course, they're wetting their pants for the opportunity to use "tactical nukes," as if one or two will bring the same result in Iran as it did in Japan.
Failing of course, to note that a key reason Japan surrendered was that they were assured BY DIPLOMATS that the Emperor would not be executed. Otherwise, Japan in 1945-48 could have looked very much like Iraq does today.

It does look like Condi is watching the landscape sinking before her eyes and trying to figure out how she's going stay afloat.
She's upset because the neo-cons don't like her anymore.

Here's what Juan Cole has to say about the airplane bombing plot:
British authorities say that they have been investigating the group behind the airplane bombing plot for "about a year." The Scotsman says that the investigation began in 2005.
US authorities were only told about some details two weeks ago, apparently. It may be that the British counter-terrorism community learned its lesson from the loose lips of the Bushies in summer of 2004.

"Written in 1946, Camus's compelling and troubling tale of a disaffected, apparently amoral young man has earned a durable popularity (and remains a staple of U.S. high school literature courses) in part because it reveals so vividly the anxieties of its time. Alienation, the fear of anonymity, spiritual doubt--all could have been given a purely modern inflection in the hands of a lesser talent than Camus, who won the Nobel Prize in 1957"

OT-what a perfect Friday night. Ha! I have plans for most of the weekend, but tonight I'm in for the night, enjoying some wine, surfing my favorite blogs. I walk out of my office and the carpeting squished. Like really wet squished.
After looking frantically for the source, I find it near the water heater. It's a teeny, tiny pinpoint leak in the water supply pipe. I have no idea how long it's been there, but the water seems to have spread several feet.
It's FRIDAY NIGHT, damn it! I don't want to pay a plumber super duper secret overtime for fixing this on a weekend!
Crap. Tomorrow I will figure out how to remove the section that's leaking (plastic and flexible, thank God and Goddess) walk into the plumbing supply store with all the confidence I can muster and say, "I need one of these."

GWPDA-
You said a day or two ago something about being related to Mrs. US Grant. Do you know this passage concerning she and her husband while on their world tour?
Memorandum to the Foreign Office
On this occasion, our distinguished guest, the ex-President of the American Union...got as drunk as a fiddle. The eminent Democrat showed that he could be as profligate as any English Lord. He fumbled Mrs. A., kissed the shrieking Miss B., pinched the plump Mrs. C. black and blue, and ran at Miss D. with flagrant intent to ravish her!
Finally, after throwing our female guests into hysterics by behaving like an elephant in must, the noble beast was captured by main force, and carried upstairs, all four feet in the air, by our household staff. Within his room, Mrs. Grant was awaiting him, in shift and mobcap. There and then, to our considerable amazement, this remarkable man satiated his baffled lust on the unresisting body of his legitimate spouse, and copiously vomited during the operation. Those who have seen Mrs. Grant would not think this latter incredible.

Had to work tonight. Have to say that the computer there did not like all the stuff on the Eschaton page. Took forever to load.
Enjoyed all the comments, as usual.
GWPDA, the first thing I did was turn off the power to the heater. Then I found the valve and shut it off. So, the emergency has been lessened a bit. No hot water right now, but I can deal with that temporarily.
Jeffraham, when I think of PVC, I think white, hard plastic. No, this is grey, flexible tubing that leaked (ok that's not surprising.) My guess is it was cheap. This was a rental house for some time before I bought it. Many things in this house were the least expensive (of whatever) that could possible be bought. *sigh*

It fucking makes me sick.
Just jumping in here after reading a bit at Sullied Sully's place. The man truly has a screw loose:
[After a righteous, righteous rant by an emailer purportedly of Iranian descent whose family was persecuted by the Mullahs for being supporters of the Shah and had to move to this alien land and start from scratch, which ends with:
"To see you so haphazardly clump me in with the terrorist scum is emotionally devasting."]
From Sully:
The sentence he is referring to is as follows:
"There is something terribly sick within the Muslim mind at this moment in history. It is Nietzsche's ressentiment, but with God re-attached."
I did not write that Islam was sick. I did not write that all Muslims were psychologically sick.
So, when you wrote those words, you weren't saying what you said. Gotcha.
I'm not one to throw stones, but when the alcohol starts doing more that 50% of your talking, it's really, really time to get off the sauce.
oh, holy crap. Don't know if you've seen this yet, but is it cute!
Or there may be an off switch on the water heater itself- no need to mess with the breaker.
By the way, the other day the air conditioning at work went out. The attorneys were sweating in their ties, but I was the only one who thought of going down in the basement to check the breakers.
Boy, some woman was in the store tonight. We have plant stakes that say *peace*. She rolled her eyes and commented how nice it would be to have it, and then she went off on Bush for about five minutes.
Yeah. People are mad.

Sounds like you did very well, then. What's important is getting a real permanent, non-chintzy solution... and that probably involves copper pipe and joints, and a blow torch (for soldering the joins and joints). Do you see any copper, i.e., is tge grey flexistuff connected to copper pipe?

The State of Israel, and Jews of the world who support Israel, along with the ruling regimes of the Arab oil States, must dedicate several tens of billions of dollars to the establishment of a viable, contiguous, independent Palestinian State; a State, not a bunch of Palestinian bantustans. The Palestinians have already demonstrated they can conduct honest democratic elections, certainly as fair and free as the Iraqi 'elections' held during the last year.

Thanks everyone, for your advice and words of support. Atriots are so damn cool. And smart!
The funny thing is, the water heater is old, so I've been doing a little shopping around, looking at different types and considering switching to a gas version, or better yet-solar. They seem expensive, but there are state and local rebates and incentives to help. Since this is a simple pipe (now that I've calmed down a little) this will be a HUGE motivator to get that DONE. Before something else breaks.
in a rational world, such criminal negligence and incompetence from republicans would doom them to minority status for forty year.

Yeah, well - we used to teach that in school, about 10th grade. The fact that we no longer do so, thus relegating the entire period to the weed pile of libraries, is what motivated me to create GWPDA. Do you realise that in 1995 there was no access to the Treaty of Versailles short of ILL? The copies which had been distributed thruout the country in the 20s-50s, were produced on acid paper, had begun to crumble, were inaccessible.... They were gone. Most of the entire period was actually gone, dissolved. This however is an excuse for those born after around 1970 - not for sixty year olds. Sorry.

Oh, no, baby. You have that stuff...gray plastic...PCB, no, PBR, no. Oh, here I go, PB. Polybutelyne.
Notoriously shitty crap. It was used for cheap plumbing in the '70s before PVC, and it's really shitty. You might oughta look at replacing all of it (as your budget allows).
My favorite plumber sold me on PEX, cross-linked polyethelyne, which has been used for decades in Scandanavia. It has a memory (the cross-linked part), which allows it to expand in the event of a freeze, but return to its normal shape and size once it's melted.
IIRC, you're in the DC area, so you may have an easier time finding plumbers who can work with it (it requires special tools). But in DC, I noticed some stories in the local papers about people with brand-new copper plumbing getting pinholes in it. The water authority swore up and down they haven't done anything to their processing with new chemicals or anything, but it sure was fishy.

Workers paid by a liberal group to register voters in Franklin County have turned in more than 500 forms with nonexistent addresses and potentially fake signatures, elections officials said yesterday.
Board of Elections Director Matthew Damschroder said he has forwarded the cards to county authorities for possible criminal charges.
Elections workers verifying new-voter forms discovered signatures with the same handwriting, addresses that were for vacant lots and incorrect information for voters who already were registered, Damschroder said. One card had the name of an East Side man who’s dead.
All the questionable cards were turned in by workers for Ohio ACORN, a group that’s also paying people to gather signatures for a proposed November ballot initiative to raise the state’s minimum wage.
Katy Gall, the group’s head organizer, said ACORN is cooperating with the investigation and already has fired some of its paid circulators.
"We are interested in seeing people who are gaming the system prosecuted," she said.
ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, faced similar problems in 2004 during a drive that added 189,000 new voters to Ohio’s rolls. Prosecutors were unable to trace the originators of some falsified forms, but one ACORN worker was indicted by a Franklin County grand jury.
State law now requires people paid for registering voters to add their own names to the forms. James Lee, a spokesman for Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell, said the new provisions make it easier to investigate problems.
Lee said Blackwell’s office also has had inquiries recently about potential voter-registration fraud in Cuyahoga and Summit counties.
In its six Ohio offices, ACORN has about 50 circulators who are paid between $8 and $11 an hour, Gall said. The group has eight circulators in Columbus.
Gall complained that the state’s election-law changes make it harder for groups to catch problems because circulators must submit forms directly to elections offices in person or by mail.
In 2004, ACORN began running its own checks on voter forms before submitting them to the Franklin County Board of Elections.
Lee, however, said internal checks are still possible.
It’s a felony in Ohio to submit voter-registration forms with false information. The penalty is up to 18 months in jail.
Damschroder said he doesn’t think the fake forms were submitted by people intending to cast fake ballots in November.
"I think it’s just somebody out there trying to make a fast buck," he said.
ACORN is helping lead the coalition that collected more than 765,000 signatures to put the m
Sullivan has a point. The Democrats have never put forth a real a progressive, democratic agenda for reforming the Middle East, bringing peace to the Middle East, they will have no leg to stand on in condemning the neocons and Bush. Actually, the problem is they share part of the Bush agenda, cultural conquest of the Middle East, though Bush's agenda would replace cultural conquest with extermination, genocide and conversion of the Middle East to a radioactive glass mirror. The real solution to the Middle East is to realize that they are our cultural equals entitled to their own way of life and their own religion. With that will come the belief that they are also entitled to be economically independent instead of our economic slaves. Isreal regards itself as a Western nation, not Middle Eastern. Israel too must grant the Palestinians the right to be themselves, part of the Middle Eastern and not Westerners.
Listen carefully to Bush. While he lies and lies, at the same time. his lies acknowledge the truth of the situation. That is why one of his key lies is that he wants to bring peace, freedom and democracy to the Middle East. Of course, what he is saying is that he will respect them, their culture and their right to their own religion as well as to live free of the real Butcher of Baghdad, Bush himself. We know his intentions are the opposite, extermination of all the Arab and Muslim people and, at best, he would replace them with White, Protestants.
It is the same basis for his hatred of Blacks, Hispanics and other minorities, even women. They have no right to be different from him. If he could have his way, the entire world would be populated with 7 billion George W. Bushs. What the idiot doesn’t realize is Cheney’s ideal world is 7 billion Dick Cheneys, male, 70 something years old with a bad ticker and bad breath (sorry, couldn’t resist ), while Rummy would like to see a world populated with 7 billion identical clones of Rummy including sweaty, stinky feet. These tiny, tiny minds wouldn’t even allow for the discomfort of their wives.
Nuke Israel and exterminate the fucking Jew bastards. Whoever is left alive - take all their property and throw them in concentration camps. World Wide.
