Late Nite FDL: Malkin Credibility, R.I.P.
http://www.firedoglake.com/2007/...-rip/#more- 6454

I liked this bit...
Dave, you know I love you and that I think you're one of the best bloggers going, but surely you're not so naïve as to expect rational, responsible behavior from the Malkinites? They are not rational people. They are not even adults. They are squalling, feuding toddlers with driver's licenses and mortgage payments. They may have been toilet-trained, but after that the cognitive development stopped cold. Really


Gravatarhey the giants suck but they might just beat those eagles...philly, a rest area on the way from new york to miami....

They are quite sweet, but a well made icewine has sufficient acid to balance the sweetness and keep it from being cloying.

Butter is a dairy product and Wisconsin is the dairy state.

Oh, and it's four because many people in Wisconsin have fingers.

I can't really follow all the ins and outs of it, but from what I gather Malkin and her wing'd monkeys are waiting for six people who were burned alive to testify that they were, in fact, burned alive. Then and only then will they admit they were wrong.

It was referred to below, I believe, as "managing expcectations".


GravatarJimmie Dean sausage meat gives up 90% of its volume in fat and water, and doesn't taste very good for the effort...

GravatarWhat a shame. I am watching the pilot to BSG. The first two seaons were spectacular. This season, I think they have lost it completely. Which is a shame since the season premier was incredible. I hope the start up again this month puts things back on track.


GravatarWe have been doing such things for years here, as the Gators are a long time rival.

Michelle Malkin should, as was earlier suggested, be forced to visit Mr. Hussein in his jail cell.

I'm not rooting for Philly - just the opposite. But the Giants are a bad, stupid, terribly coached team.

GravatarNot winter, not spring? What to call this fifth season? Wintring? Even the water in our lakes has a slow, sluggish quality; the waves move with a tired, viscous lassitude. It's as if the water knows it's midwinter and it should be sleeping, but it can't. At the same time, it's too tired to move very energetically. That's what it's like in wintring. In Washington, too, it seems.

GravatarIt seems that the wingnut bloggers are looking at every story doesn't favor dear leader as a potential Dan Rather/kerning episode.

What they are too stupid to realize is that one "glorious victory" of theirs was almost certainly a result of a Karl Rove dirty trick. The fucks can't win unless the game is rigged in their favor.

I have actually skipped episodes. I appreciate a lot of the character development, but the writing somehow moves the series into something close to Teen Angst versus something more mature.

As said, I am hoping they put things to right with the tween time till the end of month.

GravatarEkCenTriK | 01.06.07 - 11:54 pm |

We have learned that some of the writing is crap on purpose, because they have very sensibly sacrificed all to acting. We would like to see this idea taken to a Debordesque extreme, so that every time "pyramid," the only sport known to humanity, is displayed, it looks totally different (canonically it's Space Basketball). Now soccer, now rugby, so that the trekkie types will never be able to sketch a single syste of rules, and everyone has fun with the concept. That or centuries of sport evolution have replaced professional basketball with what is really horse.


GravatarThe "stellar" announcers didn't mention it, but Romo could have gotten the first down if he had stretched for it.


GravatarI for one am still a big ol' BSG fanboy and think they're doing just fine with the writing.

Epstein, Gene Editor, [Barron's], Economics

Gene Epstein talked about his book Econospinning: How to Read Between the Lines When the Media Manipulate the Numbers, published by Wiley. He said that journalists frequently misrepresent or misinterpret economic data, shaping data to fit a preexisting story rather than shaping their story around the data. Mr. Epstein argued that this behavior is driven by laziness and the desire to tell a compelling story, rather than by ideology. After his presentation he responded to audience members’ questions.

GravatarNYT -- Chimpy's handlers are blaming Condi for the Saddam fiasco

At 10:30 p.m., Ambassador Khalilzad made a last-ditch call to Mr. Maliki asking him not to proceed with the hanging. When the Iraqi leader remained adamant, an American official said, the ambassador made a second call to Washington conveying “the determination of the Iraqi prime minister to go forward,” and his conclusion that there was nothing more, consistent with respect for Iraqi sovereignty, that the United States could do.

Senior Bush administration officials in Washington said that Mr. Khalilzad’s principal contact in Washington was Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and that she gave the green light for Mr. Hussein to be turned over, despite the reservations of the military commanders in Baghdad. One official said that Ms. Rice was supported in that view by Stephen J. Hadley, Mr. Bush’s national security adviser.

As for Children of Men, I'm dubious of a marketing campaign that exclaims, "It's Blade Runner for the 21st Century!"

Really? It's a film whose original chopped up release is confusing and poorly received--long on style, short on substance--but yet will build a geeky cult following nevertheless, with a director's cut finally salvaging its reputation?

(And isn't such a claim just another way of saying that this is an unoriginal film?)

Gravatarshawk - It's not Jesus in Vegas. Jesus H. Christ was pulled due to legal challenges by Paul McCartney, Abba, and others for sampling. Most of the material was eventually re-recorded minus the offending samples and released as the album Shhhh! What I have, I believe, is a recording of the mix sessions - there are multiple versions of several of the songs. Jesus H. Christ was released in a very limited vinyl edition by the band's own label. I really don't know how much this release might differ from the recording I have.

GravatarWes Clark OpEd

... What the surge would do, however, is put more American troops in harm's way, further undercut US forces' morale, and risk further alienation of elements of the Iraqi populace. American casualties would probably rise, at least temporarily, as more troops are on the streets; we saw this when the brigade from Alaska was extended and sent into Baghdad last summer. And even if the increased troop presence initially intimidates or frustrates the contending militias, it won't be long before they find ways to work around the obstacles to movement and neighbourhood searches, if they are still intent on pursuing the conflict. All of this is not much of an endorsement for a troop surge that will impose real pain on the already overstretched US forces.
...
The truth is that, however brutal the fighting in Iraq for our troops, the underlying problems are political. Vicious ethnic cleansing is under way right under the noses of our troops, as various factions fight for power and survival. In this environment security is unlikely to come from smothering the struggle with a blanket of forces - it cannot be smothered easily, for additional US efforts can stir additional resistance - but rather from more effective action to resolve the struggle at the political level. And the real danger of the troop surge is that it undercuts the urgency for the political effort. A new US ambassador might help, but, more fundamentally, the US and its allies need to proceed from a different approach within the region. The neocons' vision has failed.

GravatarDoug - My great-grandmother used to do that. Mom said when they were kids they would all scream when she did it and run away.

She came to visit us when I was 4, and called me into the bathroom, showed me how she took her teeth out and put them in the glass for cleaning...then said, "come back later and I'll show you how I put them back in." According to great-grandma, I just looked at her and said, "Grandma, do your hands come off too?" Mom said that really got her...not only did the kid not run screaming away, but didn't even get upset by the prospect that she was completely disassemblable.

GravatarWell, you wonder why I always dress in black
Why you never see bright colors on my back
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone
Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime
But is there because he's a victim of the times

I wear the black for those who never read
Or listened to the words that jesus said
About the road to happiness through love and charity
Why, you'd think he's talking straight to you and me

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back
Up front there ought 'a be a man in black

I wear it for the sick and lonely old
For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold
I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died
Believen' that the lord was on their side
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died
Believen' that we all were on their side

Well, there's things that never will be right I know
And things need changin' everywhere you go
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right
You'll never see me wear a suit of white

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day
And tell the world that everything's ok
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back
'Till things are brighter, I'm the man in black

Each week we lose a hundred fine young men
And, I wear it for the thousands who have died
Believen' that the lord was on their side
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died
Believen' that we all were on their side
Well, there's things that never will be right I know
And things need changin' everywhere you go
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right
You'll never see me wear a suit of white
Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day
And tell the world that everything's ok
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back
'Till things are brighter, I'm the man in black

GravatarThis one year, when I got to the bottom of my slice of birthday cake, I found a clown nose. And I realized that the icing was actually greasepaint.

You are sure they just didn't grind up a clown for cake?

I dremeled mine, with the little saw blade. Top down, from the tip of the nail towards the knuckle.

GravatarHas everybody here been traumatized by a dessert? I want to hear the stories.

Wasn't dessert, but I was having dinner across the street, and they had something called "spoon bread".

Awful stuff.

GravatarRichard only eats worms. He claims they remind him of his daddys dingdong. He loves dingdongs, anyones, but the only snatch for him belongs to his mama.

I like raisins, but one of my favorite Garfield cartoons has the punchline "I just killed a fly somewhere on your raisin toast."

I can't believe I remember this, but it was a girl named Karen Porter, who was quite pretty. She didn't throw up but learned yet another lesson about "creepy guy syndrome."

GravatarI like raisins, but one of my favorite Garfield cartoons has the punchline "I just killed a fly somewhere on your raisin toast."

Well, the point is that NONE of her five children liked raisins.

I don't know why she didn't just make most of the batch plain, and then add some raisins into the last sheet of cookies.

Rather than hear us all scream and barf.


GravatarSometimes my mom would add raisons to the toll house cookies and not tell us.

GravatarNo power tools involved in this tale, but I once presented a paper on WWII novels at a conference the day after my lovely cat Tista decided to rip my arm open from wrist to elbow (pissed because I'd been travelling too much).

The bandage certainly helped garner attention, especially as I gesture a lot while talking.

He must look like one of the extras from the film "Monster Man" by now.

(sallyh will appreciate that)


GravatarNamestealers like Richard weren't hugged enough as children. His mama wasn't into foreplay.


GravatarWhacked the tip of a finger off once, cutting up vegetables.

New Henckel chef's knife, sharp as hell, just took that sucker clean off. Lifted it off the blade and took it to the hospital.

That was the easy part. Trying not to jump and run screaming away when they put the needle in the wound to anesthetize it so they could sew the bit of flesh back on: that was hard.

Then there was the time I had two ingrown toenails cut out on the same day, and still went to the theater that night to see the first Michael Keaton "Batman" movie.

It was my birthday. I wasn't going to miss it.

I'll never forget the day he was carrying a brand-new toilet, and somehow managed to run it into something so that it shattered in his arms, and gashed one arm to the bone. He was hopping around, spraying blood everywhere, and saying "I hate thins fucking work. I've gotta stop doing this fucking work!"

He'd been at it for years. Always smoked a couple of joints before he started, too.

GravatarI forgot to mention they had to deaden both toes, too, which took a needle in the end of each one, and some patience as the fluid was injected.

Medical procedures are such fun.


GravatarRichard likes to watch his parents have sex, sometimes he even joins in. But only when his mama is on her rag. She makes him lick up all the "nice red mama juice."

Gravatarthere seems to be one on every job site. usually dope smokers, other times just dumb as two by sixes.

my brother sawed off three fingers on a table saw (surgeons were able to reattach them). turns out, iirc, he had a mild form of seizures where he would just go blank for a moment. no one knew until he sued sears for faulty guards on the saw, and he had to get examined.

or that's how i remember it, anyway.

Ever had anyone peer into your bladder? I remember sitting in the chair, staring out of boredom at a strange-looking metal rod about a quarter-inch in diameter, and suddenly worrying that it was what they intended to stick up my urethra.

Then I thought, "No way. There's absolutely no way."

But there was.

Fuckers.


GravatarDamn, I missed Woody's reply. Oh well, I'll email him.

Speaking of dumb construction guys, our company used to have one who walled himself into a closet with drywall, with all his tools, and couldn't get out. Seems he couldn't remember where the door was supposed to go. So he called for help with his cell phone.

mrs g told me a story she saw on one of these medical miracles shows. guy lost his arm, still felt horrible pain where it used to be. docs tried everything until finally one came up with this idea: they sat him at a table with his good arm out, set up mirrors so it looked to him like two arms were on the table. his brain finally stopped trying to clench the muscles in the missing one.

It was kinda nice that everyone was ignoring shoeannie. Let's go back to it, shall we?


GravatarWell, you wonder why I always dress in black
Why you never see bright colors on my back
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone
Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on
***********************************
I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime
But is there because he's a victim of the times
*****************************
I wear the black for those who never read
Or listened to the words that jesus said
About the road to happiness through love and charity
Why, you'd think he's talking straight to you and me
************************
Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back
Up front there ought 'a be a man in black
*****************************
I wear it for the sick and lonely old
For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold
I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men
**********************************
And, I wear it for the thousands who have died
Believen' that the lord was on their side
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died
Believen' that we all were on their side
*********************************
Well, there's things that never will be right I know
And things need changin' everywhere you go
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right
You'll never see me wear a suit of white
********************O
Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day
And tell the world that everything's ok
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back
'Till things are brighter, I'm the man in black
