GravatarWoooooot!! Fraggle Rock


GravatarWhat cares?


GravatarBecause of my superb timing, I'm repeating this from below, just because I feel like it. And good afternoon.

WASHINGTON - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Friday she is certain the United States has made mistakes in the Iraq war, but the world will have to wait until she is out of government to learn what she thinks they were.

I'm still trying to get my jaw to close.

"Hi boss. I fucked up that job I was contracted to do for you, but if you think I'm going to tell you how before the contract's up, then you don't know condolleezzaa!" Who in the fuck does this little piece of chickenshit glorified whore think she is? Oh my god, I only thought I was angry before.

Sure, but where's the oil tanker named after you, hmmm?


Gravatarmena, I right there with you. I didn't think my disgust could be any more disgusting until I read that. Who are these people?


GravatarSomething to keep in mind before you think about responding to the likes of annieangel...

Why do trolls do it?
http://www.flayme.com/troll/

I believe that most trolls are sad people, living their lonely lives vicariously through those they see as strong and successful.

Disrupting a stable newsgroup gives the illusion of power, just as for a few, stalking a strong person allows them to think they are strong, too.

For trolls, any response is 'recognition'; they are unable to distinguish between irritation and admiration; their ego grows directly in proportion to the response, regardless of the form or content of that response.

Trolls, rather surprisingly, dispute this, claiming that it's a game or joke; this merely confirms the diagnosis; how sad do you have to be to find such mind-numbingly trivial timewasting to be funny?

Remember that trolls are cowards; they'll usually post just enough to get an argument going, then sit back and count the responses (Yes, that's what they do!).


GravatarStop oppressing me.
==

Yeah, that!


GravatarI always find that when I'm nailed for speeding, the best answer to "do you know how fast you were going" is "yeah, but I'm not going to fucking tell you, ossifer."

Whose answer would be to throw you in the back of the cruiser, bring you back to the station and say, "book em Danno".

Now why can't the American people do the same with condi, chimpy and company?


GravatarRichard is obsessed.


GravatarIs this new team coming in to solve the Iraq issue? I am a bit confused.


GravatarWho in the fuck does this little piece of chickenshit glorified whore think she is?

Colin Powell? Paul O'Neill? Christine Todd Whitman?


GravatarIs this new team coming in to solve the Iraq issue?

GravatarSure, but where's the oil tanker named after you, hmmm?

Doug, jumping for Cholla


But Bush wants to start a whole new omelet with Iran. How are they going to enable that?


GravatarOne thing she'll *never* do is take any responsibility for any of those mistakes...

"It was not long into my tenure as Secretary of State that I realized the War on Terror was totally fucked, and that it was the fault of Colin Powell, Don Rumsfeld and Joe Wilson. They had all betrayed my hus- *President*'s child-like good faith.

But I also knew, to keep the supertanker of state on an even keel, I could never share my apprehensions with Georgiepie-- the *President*"


GravatarMena

"but the world will have to wait until she is out of government to learn what she thinks they were."

History, you know, the past. Versus the now. The past, well it is so done and over with. So there.


GravatarArgh, I've got to go now. This is my friday, and I've got to go to the robot wars one more night this week.

GravatarIs this new team coming in to solve the Iraq issue?

We have to suffer the retro crew first.


GravatarSo Dion took it, beating the world's biggest ego, Ignatieff.

I don't know if Plum is still around, but here's my thoughts about it: the Liberals just had the kind of grassroots revolution that the Democrats in the states so badly need. Dion had nothing-- no money, no support of the party establishment. In fact, the establishment wanted to annoit Ignatieff, or secondly to give their blessing to Rae. But the grassroots party members rebelled, and ended up supporting Dion.

Yes, there are huge issues going forward with Quebec, and we'll see what Dion is made of. But I'm hopeful.

Btw, what are the chances that any American party would choose a college professor as leader?


GravatarAnother paragraph from that Condi story...


"When I'm back at Stanford University," she said, "I can look back and write books about what we might have done differently."


It sounds like Stanford is already committed to rewarding her for her failures.

GravatarBut they're making gains you just don't realize yet/

'-- Saudi security officials said Saturday they foiled a planned terrorist suicide attack and arrested 139 suspected Islamist militants who were in "sleeper cells" believed to be affiliated with al Qaeda.

A senior official in the Saudi Interior Ministry told CNN that the suspects, who are from several Arab nations, were monitored by Saudi security agents for several months. They rounded the men up just before the expected attack was launched.'

I think she should go the Rudolph Hess route, Spandau Prison instead of Stanford U. Spandau still stands, does it not?

He's The Worst Ever
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ wp...6120101509.html
Historians are loath to predict the future. It is impossible to say with certainty how Bush will be ranked in, say, 2050. But somehow, in his first six years in office he has managed to combine the lapses of leadership, misguided policies and abuse of power of his failed predecessors. I think there is no alternative but to rank him as the worst president in U.S. history.

GravatarDamn you, Spalding Gray, for killing yourself before making "Swimming to Crawford"!

From wikipedia:

In January 2004, Gray, known to suffer bouts of depression in part as a result of these injuries, was declared missing. The night before his disappearance he had seen Tim Burton's film Big Fish, which ends with the line "A man tells a story over and over so many times he becomes the story. In that way, he is immortal." Gray's widow, Kathie Russo, has said “You know, Spalding cried after he saw that movie. I just think it gave him permission. I think it gave him permission to die.” (New York Magazine Feb 2, 2004)

GravatarJames Carville has just called for the coach of UCLA to be fired.


GravatarPickin' at that fascist scab on America's skin:

When radio host Jerry Klein suggested that all Muslims in the United States should be identified with a crescent-shape tattoo or a distinctive arm band, the phone lines jammed instantly.

The first caller to the station in Washington said that Klein must be "off his rocker." The second congratulated him and added: "Not only do you tattoo them in the middle of their forehead but you ship them out of this country ... they are here to kill us."

Another said that tattoos, armbands and other identifying markers such as crescent marks on driver's licenses, passports and birth certificates did not go far enough. "What good is identifying them?" he asked. "You have to set up encampments like during World War Two with the Japanese and Germans."

At the end of the one-hour show, rich with arguments on why visual identification of "the threat in our midst" would alleviate the public's fears, Klein revealed that he had staged a hoax. It drew out reactions that are not uncommon in post-9/11 America.

"I can't believe any of you are sick enough to have agreed for one second with anything I said," he told his audience on the AM station 630 WMAL (http://www.wmal.com/), which covers Washington, Northern Virginia and Maryland

"For me to suggest to tattoo marks on people's bodies, have them wear armbands, put a crescent moon on their driver's license on their passport or birth certificate is disgusting. It's beyond disgusting.

"Because basically what you just did was show me how the German people allowed what happened to the Jews to happen ... We need to separate them, we need to tattoo their arms, we need to make them wear the yellow Star of David, we need to put them in concentration camps, we basically just need to kill them all because they are dangerous."

i don't care, long as they hang from the highest yardarm.

the actual time that the sun would pass a particular yard would depend greatly on the ship's latitude and heading, as well as the height of her masts, but the phrase seems to have originated in the north Atlantic, where, in summer, this would have typically been at about 11 a.m.. This was the time at which, by custom and rule, the first rum "tot" of the day was issued to officers and men (the officers had their tots neat, while the men had theirs diluted with water), hence its connection with taking one's first alcoholic drink of the day. works for me.

I dig the hell out of that opening monologue of yours.


GravatarByron York's hair re the Barack Hussein Obama controversy

Of course, all this might generate a little more sympathy had not some Democrats in recent months become so fond of the name "George Felix Allen, Jr." During the campaign, winning Senate candidate James Webb routinely referred to his opponent as George Felix Allen, Jr. (just search for the name at webbforsenate.com.) Although it wasn't even correct — Allen, whose father's middle name was Herbert, wasn't a junior — the use of Allen's full name was clearly a campaign strategy, first, to diminish Allen, and then, after news of Allen's Jewish ancestry emerged, to make an oblique reference to that.

So now Maureen Dowd, Olbermann, and others are upset about Barack Hussein Obama. Perhaps if they had criticized the whole George Felix Allen thing, they might have more credibility

Now that I've mastered the technique, I expect to gain another 20 lbs.

Fry up the meat, set on paper towel to drain; sprinkle flour into hot, smoking drippings, and stir. Keep adding flour until there's a thick paste, then very slowly add milk (helps if milk is getting close to room temp -- if milk is too cold, and/or added too quickly, gravy disaster awaits! Set it aside on the counter just before you bake your biscuits), reduce heat to 1/3 full warp power, and stir like mad. Let thicken, slowly add more milk. Reduce over lower heat. Add salt, pepper to taste, and serve over piping hot biscuits.

Phunny you should mention hummus. Hummus, if not overly-lemony, and with enough black pepper, makes an excellent hillbilly gravy substitute, in both taste and texture... but I've never tried it warm. On toast or pita, I'll be damned if it doesn't remind me of biscuits and gravy, though...!

GravatarGod bless Peter Jennings...

http://thismodernworld.com/3373
Four years ago, Barbara Walters, who calls Kissinger “the most loyal friend,” was entertaining Kissinger and his wife at a dinner party for a D.C. politician when ABC News anchor Peter Jennings, who died last year, suddenly piped up, “How does it feel to be a war criminal, Henry?”

The subject of Kissinger’s past sins was very much in the air at the time. Judges in both France and Spain were seeking Kissinger for questioning as the long-simmering debate over his connection to Chilean general Augusto Pinochet’s brutal killing of dissidents in the seventies returned with a vengeance…

The question stunned the dinner guests, who included Time Inc. editor Henry Grunwald, who also died last year, and former ABC chairman Thomas Murphy. Grunwald told Jennings the comment was “unsuitable,” but Jennings persisted.

“I tried to change the subject, but it was a very uncomfortable moment,” says Walters. “[Kissinger’s wife] Nancy reacted very strongly and hurt.”

Kissinger said nothing.

It really depends on the food. People avoiding fats don't understand how badly the body needs high-quality fats. Staying away from trans fats, and using healthy oils (one of my favorites is almond oil) can help offset the occasional artery-clogging pig drippings.

I always hated having dinner at my grandmother's house. The food she cooked contained enough grease to fill an oil tanker.

My father's explanation was that her cooking style was a response to the shortages in the old country during World War II, when meat products and animal fat were in short supply. After the war, happy that she could now finally have the fatty stuff that she had missed for years, she went overboard with it, and never got out of the habit.


GravatarSallyh: I think my aversion to most things cooked in heavy pork fat stems from the fact that every Sunday, my da would make an Ulster Fry (sans the black pudding, thank the goddess, since they couldn't get it here). Think about eggs, tomatoes, cabbage, potatoes, and ham all soaked in bacon fat and mixed together. (We had to suffer black pudding at holiday time; the grandparents would send some).

That sounds horrid! But I can relate -- I'm sure the reason I won't eat steak today is becuse of how much of it I was force-fed as a child. I always hated the texture. brrrrr

GravatarI'm thinking of some sort of lemon/lavender combo.

I wonder if the lemon would overpower the lavender. Maybe a very delicate lemon cookie.

Lemon is my very favorite dessert flavor.


Gravatar4Legs--now this movie is SO bad it's good

Indeed.

ROOOOOSE BUDDDDD!!!

Ridiculous.


GravatarI enjoy the lemon tarts, as well

Yum. Perhaps cook the lemon up with a little fresh lavendar and sprinkle the lavendar sugar on top instead of confectioner's?

And then please please please send me some!!


GravatarI just want to say that I'm not nearly as high maintenance as res.

High maintenance, my a##!

I am beginning to think my problem is that I am not high maintenance enough.


GravatarI always hated having dinner at my grandmother's house. The food she cooked contained enough grease to fill an oil tanker.

My grandmother made spaghetti sauce with campbell's tomato soup.

Blech.

The cost of the Iraq war so far is about $347 billion...

http://nationalpriorities.org/in...pper& Itemid=182

That's about $12000 per person for everyone in the country.

Back in 2004 the estimates of the number of insurgents was about 20,000, as I recall. $347 billion works out to about $17 million per insurgent. Of course, now that the country is in civil war the number of fighters has no doubt increased by a huge margin.

I'd written semiotics in college about ads, used the read every issue of Advertizing Age at the college library.

So two things. Brian Wilson has called God Only Knows "a sacred song," the most beautiful thing he ever wrote. You can tell he didn't want to let go of it, all the repetitions at the end. Hard to blame him, so fine. So why has he now sold it to "Sam's now takes MasterCard"? That's not sacred. He's had mental illness issues, had his finances hijacked. Are those problems ongoing?


And then there's that damn Nexium ad, the one where the strutting dad declares "My kids all call me The Finisher." Then it shows him bossing around the not-happy kids, no mother in sight, him the assertive asshole, finish this, finish that. Is this the imge dads have of themselves, pains in the asses for the supposed good of the kids? I can assure you the kids don't call him "The Finisher" outside ear-range. They call him fuckhead

Don't think my geography teacher ever quite figured out what "gams" were, but knew I thought hers went all the way up to there.


GravatarI can't imagine standing around in the same room with Kissinger. How would you not throw a drink in his face?

GravatarDraco that's one of the funniest comments ever.


GravatarThose thumbsnap things are really cool. Nice doggy.


GravatarI think you mean 250,000 bullets. No, wait, that's in Iraq...

GravatarI hope Eli is watching this movie.


GravatarThat leaves Michigan in a precarious position. Still, they are the better team.

Should Florida move to #2 from #4? Michiga's only loss is by 3 to an undefeated team, and Florida lost to Auburn by 10. Tougher schedule, I guess.

GravatarWatertiger, do you play poker?


GravatarSo two things. Brian Wilson has called God Only Knows "a sacred song," the most beautiful thing he ever wrote. You can tell he didn't want to let go of it, all the repetitions at the end. Hard to blame him, so fine. So why has he now sold it to "Sam's now takes MasterCard"? That's not sacred. He's had mental illness issues, had his finances hijacked. Are those problems ongoing?

That song used to make me almost cry. That commercial pushed me over.


GravatarSallyh, Grandmere Poissonniere,

I'm actually rather liking this movie.


GravatarGomez,

Not a huge football fan but it appeared to me that neither Arkansas or Florida were in the same league with Michigan/Ohio State/USC


GravatarNTodd--Did you see my comment yesterday hoping your dog had returned, recommending the group The Shaggs, and their adolescent girl song My Pal Foot-Foot, about their lost dog?

It's a very amateurish, ill-composed, ill-played soing. But it's all the sadder for those reasons--the girls are distressed.

I'm not quite clear your story, but I think Cairo was lost, has since come back


GravatarMr Computer has decided that the human fallibility of the two proposed teams invalidates them, leaving Mr Computer the sole recipient of the presidency. Sporting award. Of course Mr Computer meant to say sporting award. Mr Computer blames human error for misspeaking.


GravatarIf Arkansas hadn't made that dumb fumble which led to the Florida TD, it might have been closer still.


GravatarAndrew Sullivan needs to change alot of these you's to we's but not bad:

It's over, guys. Your beloved Bush administration botched this so badly it's irrecoverable. You enabled them. You never fully took them on when it would have counted - and you trashed those of us who did. You knew this before the 2004 election and still cynically played the anti-Kerry card for all it was worth, telling yourselves you could sway Rummy after the election. Well, you couldn't and you didn't. Your policy was sabotaged by a defense secretary who never believed in it and by a president too weak and out-of-it to rein him in. Get over yourselves and recognize that this dream has died. And we have to fight the nightmare we now face rather than pretend your dream is still even on life-support. That's the patriotic responsibility at this point. And no, I'm not impugning your patriotism. I'm asking you to place it before your shattered dreams.


Gravatar“The power of Henry working a room is still seismic,” says Diane Sawyer, the Good Morning America host and former Nixon press aide who dated Kissinger in the early seventies. “All of a sudden everybody wants to step up their game and say something he’ll find interesting or funny.”

Oh, do fuck off, Diane Sawyer.

State of Denial, the latest White House exegesis by famed reporter Bob Woodward, depicts Kissinger as privately advising President George W. Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney on the war in Iraq, calling him a “powerful, largely invisible influence.” Woodward’s portrait of Kissinger as a surreptitious Rasputin, cooing in the presidential ear that “victory is the only exit strategy,” urging him to resist all entreaties to change course, has rankled the dour statesman.

Take the escalator to the hanging tree, murderer.

Yeah, but we should have invoked it then, too.

The difference is that Reagan had competent people in his administration. Evil, terrible people, but for better or worse they knew what they were doing. If Katrina had happened on Reagan's watch, it would have been just as heartless, but it would not have been so obviously incompetent.

Bush has nobody and nothing in the way of support, except maybe his old standby Mr. Black Jack Daniel.

GravatarI went on down to the Audobon Zoo and they all asked for you.


GravatarNtodd, what is your problem?


Gravatar“The tragedy of Henry Kissinger is that he is a very large intellect joined to a very small man,” says Mark Danner, a foreign-policy writer who knows Kissinger. “No one is more brilliant, but in offering advice to policy-makers he invariably lets his obsession with his own access and influence corrupt what should be disinterested advice, tailoring his words to what he thinks the powerful want to hear. As a matter of character, he is more courtier than thinker.”

Kissinger, of course, takes issue with the notion that he’s a man who favors power over speaking truth to power. “It’s wrong,” he says. “It will make you popular with your friends in the New York intelligentsia if you say that, but it’s totally wrong.”

It's not a tragedy that Kissinger is a drama queen, on top of being a war criminal.


Gravatarthis is funny...remember a few days back when some Atridiots had their panties in a bunch over someone named Ed Rogers calling St. Barack, the Mediocre, by the name Barack Hussein Obama?..

...well that really is his name:

Obama has joked that he worried his political career was over after 9/11 because his name sounded too much like Osama. In fact, it's better than that: Named after his father, his full name is Barack Hussein Obama Jr.

...you guys are just oodles of fun...seriously..


GravatarThersites has not killed nearly as many Indochinese as Henry.


Gravatar"Fuck you, war ciminal asshole" would be a witty bon mot in such circumstances.

One should accompany that with a swift kick to his shriveled old nuts.


GravatarToo many Rasputins in this administration.

Well the way the rich and stupid are inbreeding, waiting for the royal hemophilia to kick in may be our best long-term strategy.


GravatarSo here's an interesting twist:

My sister phoned me and said that dad wants "one last trip (choking on my tears) to the casino."

She wants to get him a package and have us chip in and give him $ 500 to gamble.

And she wants as many of us as possible to go.

I think that's a mighty interesting Christmas present. I'm all for it.

GravatarThree years ago, he agreed to open up his White House diaries, letters, and archives to British historian Niall Ferguson, who is taking five years to write a biography. (Of a working session at Kissinger’s place in Kent one summer, he says, “I’m in Henry Kissinger’s swimming pool talking about his meetings with Mao Tse-tung, thinking, I must be dreaming.”) Ferguson claims that Kissinger wants him to write a warts-and-all biography, but Kissinger has rarely had anything but antagonistic relationships with his chroniclers.

“He wants to control not just what he says,” observes Woodward, who first interviewed him for 1974’s All the President’s Men, “but people’s perceptions of what he says. And it’s kind of like one long book review where he is arguing with the reviewer of his book or his life or his policy.”

Seymour Hersh, who wrote the 1983 Kissinger takedown The Price of Power, is more damning: “He lies like most people breathe.”

Hersh will never be invited to the power parties.

But what will the men do while you play for trifles


GravatarAfter arguing for 30 years that Vietnam was lost because a Democratic Congress failed to live up to its promises, he says he now believes the country needs a bipartisan approach to strategy in Iraq. Regarding troop withdrawals, he says he’s never been against the idea as long as it’s “tied to an overall strategy.”

Whatever the Baker-Hamilton report comes up with, he says, “I will stretch to try to support it.” (The study group recently interviewed Kissinger, who is calling for an international conference with Iraq’s neighbors, including Iran.) Of Donald Rumsfeld, Kissinger will only say, “I feel deeply for him at this moment. It’s a very tragic situation to be in at the end of his public life.” On Rumsfeld’s replacement, Robert Gates, a former CIA director under President Bush’s father and a critic of Rumsfeld’s handling of the war, Kissinger predicts that he and Gates will have “probably very parallel views.”

Kissinger is also supporting McCranky for preznit, so we know the ears into which he'll be cooing over the next few FUs.

GravatarVicki - starting to fade here, at all of 7:Fucking 30, but in the movie - Katharine Ross did an awfully good job in her role.

Probably one reason why the changes have been so hard to accept for so many people.

GravatarThis is hilarious. Keith Olbermann really is an idiot. (BTW..the folks at Newswatch on Fox were laughing their asses off at that ass-clown tonight.)

Whatever the source, Rogers' comment caused MSNBC's Keith Olbermann some distress. "We have this right-wing implication that you must have the right name or the right God to be American," Olbermann said. "This fellow Ed Rogers, among others, has taken to calling Senator Obama Barack Hussein Obama." Olbermann wondered what the proper response should be: "Is it to point out the racial element to this, or the religious element to this? Or is it just to say, this is beneath contempt and not worthy of any response?"

I think it was exactly ten, actually. I think she was 36 & he was 26. And Katherine Ross was 24, I think. And Mrs. Robinson says to Benjamin, "I'm twice your age." Ah, Hollywood...

That said, The Graduate is one of my favorite movies... I'd like to edit a 'G' version to show the girls. They've met Dustin Hoffman as 'Hook,' and I want them to know he was once young & handsome...


GravatarWhoever is stealing Shoe's name, stop it.


GravatarBancroft was born in 1931, Hoffman in 1937.

And Katherine Ross in 1940.


GravatarNTodd, I demand that you stop harassing the imaginary woman dreamed up and inflicted on us by that tenth-rate performance artist with the stupid facial hair.

Or fucking else.

GravatarWorst. President. Ever. Eric Foner, professor of history at Columbia University, in the Washington Post: “Historians are loath to predict the future. It is impossible to say with certainty how Bush will be ranked in, say, 2050.

I think there is no alternative but to rank him as the worst president in U.S. history.” 7:15 pm | Comment (55)

GravatarThe imaginary "harassment" of AnnieAnal makes as much sense as the Vietnamese aggression against the USA: so long as you have a drastic perceptual distortion, as with racism or nationalism, how could you possibly be at fault? This is the acceptance of any conspiracy theory, no matter how farfetched, so long as it allows us to continue thinking that there are certain things the FBI & CIA would never do, no matter how deceptively logical.

GravatarEleanor Clift says Webb doesn't suck up to power. I kinda like that.

Newsweek:

A quirky individualist who wants no part of the phony collegiality of Washington, Webb was rightly insulted when Bush pressed him in that bullying way—“That’s not what I asked you”—trying to force the conversation back to Webb’s son. Webb could have asked how the Bush girls are doing, partying their way across Argentina. He could have told Bush he was worried about his son; the vehicle next to him was blown up recently, killing three Marines. Given the contrast between their respective offspring, Webb showed restraint….

GravatarGaia scientist Lovelock predicts planetary wipeout
Tue Nov 28, 2006 10:35 AM ET



By Jeremy Lovell

LONDON (Reuters) - The earth has a fever that could boost temperatures by 8 degrees Celsius making large parts of the surface uninhabitable and threatening billions of peoples' lives, a controversial climate scientist said on Tuesday.

James Lovelock, who angered climate scientists with his Gaia theory of a living planet and then alienated environmentalists by backing nuclear power, said a traumatized earth might only be able to support less than a tenth of it's 6 billion people.

"We are not all doomed. An awful lot of people will die, but I don't see the species dying out," he told a news conference. "A hot earth couldn't support much over 500 million."

GravatarGeezus, what would Handjob Hannity say if the dude was an atheist and didn't want to use any book?

I guess his head would explode:

"Echoing columnist Dennis Prager, Sean Hannity claimed that incoming Rep. Keith Ellison's reported intention to use a copy of the Quran apparently during the ceremonial photo op on the day he is sworn in "will embolden Islamic extremists and make new ones" and suggested that using the Quran for a swearing-in is comparable to using "Hitler's Mein Kampf, which is the Nazi bible."

Gravatarvery right-wing Bush nut does nothing but watch Fox news."

I suspect there might be truth in that. Of the repubs I know, almost all cite Fox when discussing news including one of my parental units who should know better.


GravatarA quirky individualist who wants no part of the phony collegiality of Washington, Webb was rightly insulted when Bush pressed him in that bullying way—“That’s not what I asked you”—trying to force the conversation back to Webb’s son. Webb could have asked how the Bush girls are doing, partying their way across Argentina. He could have told Bush he was worried about his son; the vehicle next to him was blown up recently, killing three Marines. Given the contrast between their respective offspring, Webb showed restraint….

No shit...given the alpha-dog dick-swinging Bush engaged in when petulantly responding "that's not what I asked you," Webb would have been well within his rights and the bounds of propriety if he had answered, "none of your goddamned business," to Bush's second "how's your boy" query.

How anyone could fail to see the incivility in turning a conversation into an interrogation - with all of the arrogance that displays - as the greater offense is beyond me.


GravatarFirst!

Now, first off, to correct a small fact that everyone on the right has gotten wrong to date, no one in the House is sworn in with any religious book at all. It's not a part of the swearing in process, it's not in the Constitution, it's not in any rule or law or procedure anywhere. And it is most certainly not a Bible. There is NO REQUIREMENT WHATSOEVER THAT A BIBLE BE USED TO SWEAR IN MEMBERS OF THE US HOUSE. The only time a Bible, or any other religious book pops up, is when a prospective House member brings it with them - but it simply isn't a part of the swearing in ceremony, period.

Yeah, she's OK on the news stuff, but I think she's a bit too smug-sounding, kinda like Marc Maron (who I hated). She's like a caricature of the typical liberal.

What really set me off was that she was reporting on the abstinence study (i.e., that it doesn't work), and making all these comments about Bush thinking that the Holy Spirit would keep people chaste...that whole "Ha ha ha, stupid Jesus people who believe in magic" thing.

And it drove me nuts, because we just had the fucking faith-based initiative guy come out and say, "The administration laughs at fundies; they're just throwing them bones in return for votes." I feel like anyone who chooses to emphasize the "Jesus is dumb" angle over the "These people are exploiting religion for money and power" angle is not playing with a full deck.

One man's opinion, anyway.

But it reminded me of my all-black cat Vogue. I'd named her that because Diana Vreeland, editor of Vogue magazine had the famous quote "Black is always in."

When my b-friend Robert left me, he put up a big fight he wanted Vogue. I relented, he was so insistent.

I soon found he wanted her for two 80 year old Haitian sisters living nearby. Not a joke--They used Vogue as a familiar for voodoo, hoping to cure their ill niece, kill off their landlord.

I don't know how effective Vogue was in these tasks

GravatarWar Widow Dedicates Wiccan Plaque Symbol
By MARTIN GRIFFITH
The Associated Press
Saturday, December 2, 2006; 9:26 PM

RENO, Nev. -- The widow of a soldier killed in Afghanistan saw a Wiccan symbol placed on a memorial plaque for her husband Saturday, after fighting the federal government for more than a year over the emblem.

Roberta Stewart, widow of Sgt. Patrick Stewart, and Wiccan leaders said it was the first government-issued memorial plaque with a Wiccan pentacle _ a five-pointed star enclosed in a circle. More than 50 friends and family dedicated the plaque at Northern Nevada Veterans Cemetery, about 30 miles east of Reno.

They praised Gov. Kenny Guinn for his role in getting the Nevada Office of Veterans Services to issue the plaque in September. The agency cited its jurisdiction over maintenance of the state cemetery.

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs recognizes more than 30 symbols, including more than a dozen variations of the Christian cross and the atomic whirl used by atheists, but not the pentacle.

VA officials have said they are rewriting rules for approving emblems, but the process requires a public comment period.

GravatarA few administrative things to clear up here.

1. A couple of years back or so I declared Godwin's rule off the table for the duration. I suggest a meeting in June, if things go well, to discuss re-implementing it for historical referencing.

2. Gnomenclature - For too long, considering current circumstances and new information developing, I suggest that the word Right not be used to reference the radical conservative clowns we have discussed for far too long. My suggestion is we call them the Wrongs. The Radical Wrongs seem much more appropriate. This would also restore the word to a proper context in which followers of Christ who actually practice their faith can be referenced as the Christian Right without someone laughing their asses off. For editorial and creative writing purposes I also suggest Dufus as an alternative to break things up a bit. On a personal note, I would like to see the plural be Dufusi, since I have a problem saying successive F's and S's at times.

GravatarFrom wikipedia:

Cobb explained why he "named names" saying:

"When the facilities of the government of the United States are drawn on an individual it can be terrifying. The blacklist is just the opening gambit - being deprived of work. Your passport is confiscated. That's minor. But not being able to move without being tailed is something else. After a certain point it grows to implied as well as articulated threats, and people succumb. My wife did, and she was institutionalized. The HUAC did a deal with me. I was pretty much worn down. I had no money. I couldn't borrow. I had the expenses of taking care of the children. Why am I subjecting my loved ones to this? If it's worth dying for, and I am just as idealistic as the next fellow. But I decided it wasn't worth dying for, and if this gesture was the way of getting out of the penitentiary I'd do it. I had to be employable again." (Interview with Victor Navasky for the 1982 book Naming Names.)

Fortunately for me I only see him for short periods of time. An hour at most every other day.


GravatarIt's on Shoelimpy's site, Todd. :D You posted there, stop stalking him!


Gravatarthere are 10 kinds of people in the world. those who use binary notation and those who don't.


GravatarNice nook, NTodd!

(There's a nookie joke in here somewhere, but I'm nopt touching it.)


GravatarTom Daschle Will Not Run For President...

Thank fucking Allah.


GravatarI thought it came from this.
Phila, Pizen Sarpint


You have to put into perspective. Tom came totally out of the blue in accusing me of posting as several trolls. This went for awhile and finally, thinking it was funny and ridiculous, thought I'd mess with him over it. I mistakenly thought, after having posted here for years, people could see the obvious difference in our posting styles.


GravatarI saw your picture, Todd. :D
Stop stalking me, you nutjob. NTodd


He's just trying to tell you that he really thinks he's turning Japanese.


GravatarHey Molly! We should start a club.

GravatarI thought it came from this.

To be fair, he was most likely shitfaced when he posted that.

It's on Shoelimpy's site, Todd. :D You posted there, stop stalking him!

Yes, dear.


GravatarSpeaking of paper staples, I have an old paper clip, so I clicked on the link inside Phila's link to paper clips. Fascinating stuff. But the one I have is not pictured on that page.


Gravatarself-important decaf?

The first time I went to Boston on business, one of the locals from the company was showing us around and pointed out the Parker House Hotel. Others in the group start mentioning parker house rolls....me, I'm already looking like a freak for piping up and asking, "hey, isn't that where they switched people's coffee to Folger's Crystals without telling them?"

That's got to be a relief.

I am so tired of soft spoken reasonable democrats..... Webb and Sanders are reasons for hope. They aren't soft spoken or 'reasonable' in a republican way.


GravatarDraco, A+ blood | 12.02.06 - 11:37 pm |

Video did a kick-ass job with retro font and feel. Speaking of which tonight at midnight on Adult Swim you can see the opening sequence to Bleach, which has that similar grasp of varied contemporary design. You are one of those people who needs a bosom for a pillow.

GravatarΤΏΤ is not jack or any of his multiple personalities.


GravatarMolly Ivors--You seemed to think me critical of Eschaton a few days ago when I made a comment comparing on-topic Crooks & Liars to off-topic Eschaton.

I meant to ber neutral, not judging one way or the other,, but you rather told me to get lost. Then you said you were in a bad mood with a malfunctioning gas oven. So I hope you weren't really angry with me or thought I was bitching about this site


GravatarHere's another not-so-deep thought for the day about why discussions on the net are much more acrimonious than in meatspace: There are at least three reasons:

1. The societal condemnation doesn't deter people because of anonymity

2. Facial and body clues are missed so it's easy to misunderstand a joke for nastiness etcetera.

3. A certain percentage of people (those you'd never talk to in meatspace) like to come in and fart loudly inbetween comments.

Ok. This is boring.


GravatarSholay is a great movie.


GravatarHey Molly! We should start a club.

I'll stick with people I like, thanks.

Brimful of Asha - Cornershop


GravatarI've tried to figure jack out for some time now, and I'm pretty good, but I don't have a clue what makes him tick. I've never seen anything like it before. But he doesn't annoy me like he does some posters here.


GravatarWebb and Sanders are reasons for hope. They aren't soft spoken or 'reasonable' in a republican way.

I like Webb.

My daughter said that when Monkey Boy asked "How's your boy?", Webb should have asked "How's YOUR boy....Gannon, I think is his name."

how did he do such great stunts...?


Gravatari had no idea that thers was 40d.


GravatarIt's funny to me that you think I'm jack, by the way. I don't know why jack wont speak out about it but he's an inscruitable type. ΤΏΤ

Well, for one thing you keep speaking of him in glowing terms and seem intimately familiar with his motives. Plus he often shows up just before you.


GravatarHere's another not-so-deep thought for the day about why discussions on the net are much more acrimonious than in meatspace

That's very true, Echidne. If I was to take this stance at my very Red place of work, I would do nothing but argue all day.


GravatarOkay, now Rutgers has lost.


GravatarWow, I'm hurt that someone who doens't know me doens't like me.

I'll go cry now, onto my not monstrous breasts.

I'm a "Loafer" man, myself.

I tried to avoid mentioning this, and I don't want to be a dick, but the appeal of Cornershop is a total goddamn mystery to me. Their one hit was, like, seven minutes long and it sounded sluggish and uninspired to me. Basically, it came across like third-rate late-period Velvets with - if possible - even more embarassing lyrics.

I've known a few people who tried to bend my ear with it. Usually, I understand the appeal even if I don't enjoy something. But in this case, I've never been able to figure out what people were hearing that I wasn't.


GravatarDraco,
(1) Coming here and criticizing the commenters for being off-topic (and generally introducing a new topic in the process) is like wandering into someone else's party and saying it's lame. Especially when one adds "And Suzy's parties are always great!" I think it's rude and I called it as such.

(2) I do not own a gas oven. I did have an altercation with my father-in-law's on Thanksgiving, which left me annoyed. But I don't think it changed my basic interpretation of rude/not rude.

It is. What get's me is I work in a Union shop and so many of my co-workers support anti union republicans. As far as they are concerned Americans are the laziest, most worthless workers in the world and are paid way too much. They would sell their mothers to make the company happy.


GravatarThat glasses person is a troll. He told me.


GravatarMr Computer | 12.02.06 - 11:41 pm

Hi--You seem to compliment my taste and discernment, but I'm a bit lost on your references. Better look them up. I'm feeling older by the minute, guess I am

gannon is "top only", so atrictly speaking, he isn't bush's boy. bush is his bitch.


GravatarCornershop was unambiguously better than Oasis, who deserved to get repeatedly run over by Yoko Ono.

Ummm.... Not so fast!

and it's funny that incog says that statement was in response to me, but I hadn't even posted the night he stated that. At least until much later.


GravatarPhila,
I come at Cornershop as a postcolonialist: I look for the blending of cultures.


GravatarbUSH was referring to the incident in which webb's son almost got killed. Webb should have been touched Bush was even aware of the incident, instead webb went ballistic on him and threatened to kill him in the oval office.


Gravatar"Everyone needs a bosom for a pillow" was actually the secondary refrain.


GravatarI like Webb.

Or he could have asked if his drunkin daughters had been kicked out of any countries lately.


Gravatarspeaking of him in glowing terms and seem intimately familiar with his motives.

I like eccentric people. They're much more interesting than most. I also respect all the chit he's taken and he remains unflappable. He used to chat when he first came here but he doesn't anymore, though. But I don't know his motives other than he seems really into politics and human events.


GravatarCornershop was unambiguously better than Oasis, who deserved to get repeatedly run over by Yoko Ono.

Oh, they were harmless, except to each other.


Gravatari respect phila's take on music in general. you just have to keep in mind that he doesn't like anything unless it's completely weird.


GravatarI am objectively pro-Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.


GravatarWell, for one thing you keep speaking of him in glowing terms and seem intimately familiar with his motives. Plus he often shows up just before you.

Moreover, ΤΏΤ's behavior on overnight threads is pretty much a dead ringer for the troll that never leaves. For example...

Richard, take me on mano-a-mano instead of character assassinatio with YouTube, like the punk-bitch you are. Argue my points, big bruiser hetero males instead of always ganging up. What a bunch of pussies.

Ain't it funny how annie and shoelimpy weren't here for the longest time until the dramaqueen stamped its feet and left forever in a huff...

and then when annie was banned, our dramaqueen reappeared saying that we all misunderstood it when it said it was leaving forever.


GravatarDon't you see how crazy but funny, thinking I'm jack is? I'd really have to be bent on to do it, too, which is also funny...


GravatarI like Webb.

Remember, though, he's a Reagan Republican. Though by today's standards, that means something like Andy Warhol.


GravatarI like Cornershop. But then, I also like Ventura Highway by way of Janet Jackson, so don't go by me.


GravatarOkay, I confess: I'm Incog.


GravatarSo who is flint? Is flint a troll because flint told me the glasses person just farted dust.


GravatarMolly Ivors--I'm not likely to change your mind, but as someone chronically off-topic, I'd never think it insulting to make that observation of others.

I just meant the Eschaton crew was a bit chaotic compared to Crooks & Liars, where they all stuck to a barely suggested Open Thread subject


GravatarI like Webb.

and pro-gun, pro-pentagon, anti-choice Jack Murtha is a pot-smokin' hippie. We're so far through the looking glass these days that I'm sometimes glad Pat Buchanan is still a proud, vocal racist, so I'm never tempted to say anything good about him.


GravatarDaler Mehndi is a vaguely environmental Indian MP besides making Michael Jackson look like Michael Jackson.


GravatarWhy do y'all take the time to run down those comments over jack chit, pardon the pun? I wouldn't waste my time. Some of you, seriously, have too much time on your hands. I'm at work so I'm basically here for the duration. Go out and see a movie. I would if I could...


GravatarI also respect all the chit he's taken and he remains unflappable.

Alexithymia is nothing to admire.


GravatarWhat's funnier is that everywhere I go I'm accused of being someone I've never heard of. I should keep a list of people I am.

Now, now...that's not true at all! I can see the CDs piled on my stereo from here: Ray Charles, the Fall, Barbara Lewis, Antena, Tony Allen, and Bach's Cello Suites. The only slightly weird things there are Harry Reser (ragtime banjo), and some DIY Finnish prog-organ CD.

I work hard trying to like stuff, and trying to understand the appeal of stuff I don't.


GravatarIt's funny how trollies think everyone obsesses over them. Kind of sad in a narcissisticly tedious way. But they keep saying it so it must be true.


GravatarWell, they're power pop.

There have been plenty of times over the years where it's admitted that when it gets bored it trolls to make a little excitement for itself and the rest of the world can get fucked for its excitement.

Gravatari was just kidding, phila. i get the impression that you have listened to a lot more music than most people. i actually do respect your take on it.
