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.

Something 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!).
Stop oppressing me.

Yeah, that!
I 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?

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

We have to suffer the retro crew first.
So 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?
Another 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.

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.

Damn 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)

James Carville has just called for the coach of UCLA to be fired.
Pickin' 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.

Evening, rational people.
Diane C. Barking-Mad
I dig the hell out of that opening monologue of yours.
Byron 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

Alicia Shepard talked about her book Woodward and Bernstein: Life in the Shadow of Watergate, published by Wiley. In her book she tells the story of what happened to two of America's most famous journalists during and after Watergate and how journalism was changed forever. She discussed "What if Watergate Happened Today?" with a panel of other journalists.
The program "The Shadow of Watergate" was an event of the National Press Club Professional Development Committee.

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...!

Ham gravy?!
Gravy on ham sounds preposterous (says someone who only makes gravy for turkey and pot roast).
God 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.
Sallyh: 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).

Incredible grapefruit sorbet, too...seemed like there were 2500 in each spoonful. Very nice on a hot day.
Excellent! Has he tried the chili yet?
Oh, he slimed the chili the first night. I think he likes the mousie because it's big enough that he can rake it and ritually disembowel it with his hind legs.

They're pretty sturdy, Topaz has been kicking the bejesus out of the carrot, chili and mouse for a few months now, and no ripping. She also tries to chew the mousie's appendages off.
One of my best friends in the world lives in Ann Arbor.
Why don't you pay him a visit?

I love lemon. So refreshing.
Me too.
I love lemon bars. Love them.
My favorite dessert is someone taking my kids out for dessert so I can get some frickin' peace and quiet.

Lemon is my very favorite dessert flavor.

Lemon-ginger cookies?
Now I have to make lemon bars. Thanks guys
Or imagine a lemon filled wedding cake with the frosting made with the lavender sugar.

Ringo's bunch is doing "Groovin'" with Felix Cav on vocal. Damn this is good.

Since his first comeback tour in 89, Ringo's always put together great bands.
I like seeing him playing drums and being a musician again, not just a 'personality.'

My Charley's been doing that to the sofa recenty. Pretty funny to see him hanging off the back of the sofa with that wild look in his eye.
Soon I will have to buy a new sofa.
typo?
Yes! Damn the typo was mine! Too fancy for my own pants!
There is a kick-ass recipe for a lemon cake in one of the Barefoot Contessa cookbooks.
Very similar to a lemon bread I used to make. When it came out of the oven, it was poked with a skewer in several places and a mixture of lemon juice and sugar was poured over it. So good.
Haven't made it in several years, but I have been craving it lately.
Yeah, no kidding billy. We'd show you a great time.

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

A dear friend I grew up with loves the tacos at, of all places, JackintheBox, because they remind her of her mother's. I revered her mother, but good lord, that house was velveeta central. I was blessed with a mother who could cook.

There, there, I was only making a silly joke.
Here, have a banana chocolate sammich cookie.
I've had something very simular to what you've described, pie.
And ooooh man is that delicious! Rich, but well worth it.
pie,
Exactly. She puts a lemon glaze on it, too.
Just made her split-pea soup, too. Really good.
Holy shit, USC lost.
I love when they get all wild-eyed.

Yeah, I really should make him stop, 'cause it's truly not doing the sofa a bit of good, but I find it so damn funny...
My thirteen year old watched this once, and then encouraged him: "kill the sofa, Charley! Kill the sofa!"

Oh, I went to a wedding in NYC once where the bride had one of her cakes. It was the most beautiful cake I'd ever seen.
Do you make wedding cakes? lots of money there.
Thers,
Why doncha have some Kwanza Bushmills for dessert?
Y'know, I'm very glad I left the theater before this atrocious song for the closing credits of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" pierced my eardrums.
why do the hogs let that dick throw the ball?
I enjoy the lemon tarts, as well.
res ipsa loquitur
Although I enjoy tarts of all denominations, I got a taste for lemon very young, when I used to cruise the lemon bars looking for desserts of easy vitue...

Wow, fancy website, but a bit funereal!
I've made a few wedding cakes. The best part was seeing two 17" cake layers come out of my oven (of course, that was back when I had an oven big enough...), and building up from there.
whiskeyina - I wish I had some advice, but I have no experience with ticks at all, the upside to staying inside whenever possible.

Cover a tick w/ Ben-Gay or mentholatum. It'll back right out.

I watch the competitions on the Food Channel. Those are incredible.
Weddings aren't expensive enough. You need to add a ten thousand dollar cake.

Money would be good, too. I remember seeing a calculation during Vietnam that it cost us something like $250 000 (in 1970 dollars!) to kill a Viet Cong or an NVA regular. Hell, why not just buy them off? It'd have been cheaper.
gingerbread with lemon glaze.

Don't forget the lemon tarts.
Evening all -- Just returned from seeing "For Your Consideration". Agonizingly funny . . . As for the Rummy memo. He's raving mad. Why won't anyone in the public eye say so?

The wedding I went to had a $140K budget for flowers.
Craziest thing I've ever seen.

I'm going to try being a high maintenance tart.
The only cake I make is pineapple upside down cake.
Oh, my heart is broken.

You toy with me, CS! I'm actually half-way interested this year. Kind of funny if the No. 1 and No. 2 football teams in the nation are from the Big Ten.
Funny thing, I could have gone to OSU. Very few people know that, except the blog now.

Luckily for them, they generally outgrow this just at the point you're ready to throw them under a bus.

I used to do cake decorating. You don't make money on wedding cakes.
Just sayin'.

stay away from the linzer tarts. They'll fuck your shit up and steal your wallet.
I know I am biased and all but neither Arkansas or Florida could beat Michigan let alone Ohio State. They are inconsistent and do the stupidest things!
My cousin makes wedding cakes. Some of them are real basket cases without doubt.
