I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
hello
She was just helping Joe over the fence.
goodnight moonbats
Almost made it.
Another "illuminating" post by Atrios.
No content, no link.
Is this about Lieberman not following through on his promise?
getting all in a hurry and forgetting to post the rest, eh?
I hate her. She is such.a.fucking.cunt.
And, since I posted this in a dead thread, just caught this little tidbit at Sully's:
Sources among the heroic community of pro bono lawyers who are defending some of the innocent and some of the guilty at Gitmo tell me that Stimson's comments are not isolated, that there has been a full program dedicated to the harassment of Gitmo lawyers - surveillance, pettty harassment, pressure on their law firms
Lovely, huh?
is there a missing link?
umm link?
ummm WTF?
Ummm why bother?
Is there supposed to be a link?
Dude, we can't all watch the same TV you're watching. Fill us in a little bit on your cryptic pronouncements.
TJ,
I was just reading more about Stimson at CNN. Can you spell "w-e-a-s-e-l"?
Damn.
There's no justice in this world.
re: the America the Beautiful thread, this section of digby's post is worth repeating:
We are building a well funded national police state apparatus at the same time that we are giving unlimited money and power to our military and foreign intelligence agencies to operate in the United States. This is incredibly dangerous and I can't help but wonder why there is so little effort on the part of anyone in public life to educate the public on the inherant dangers of such powerful, unaccountable institutions.
In the face of these murders, this is what the people of New Orleans want to do, put cameras on every streetcorner. Out of fear, once again, people are willingly giving up their civil rights. It is scary as hell.
well, I don't need a link. Landrieu is always doing something fucked up. last I checked, she was asking FEMA to share information on every person staying in a FEMA trailer with the NOLA police. fucking nazi cunt.
is there a missing link?

I resemble that remark.
TJ,
I posted this in response in the thread below:
Isn't this a violation of US Law:
The Posse Comitatus Act ...generally prohibits Federal military personnel and units of the United States National Guard under Federal authority from acting in a law enforcement capacity within the United States, except where expressly authorized by the Constitution or Congress.

Report:
The Met and Louvre don't exactly suck, but speaking of Florence, the most underappreciated museum I know of it the Museo Del Opera Del Duomo. That place totally rocks.
I also got talked into going into the science museum in Florence and loved it. That's where I got the picture of Galilleo finger's on my blog.
Fucking Andrea Mitchell and NBC Nightly News. Reporting on Boxer's grilling of Rice, they conveniently only showed the part where she said Rice had no family at stake and left out Boxer said the same about herself. And then Mitchell went on to say Boxer "seemed" to question Rice's singleness.
That's "repost"

Yeah, I just googled it, because I was curious, and I think that this may be the story to which he is referring.
However, I ain't married to Atrios, so I sure as fuck don't mind meld with him to know what he's really thinking.
What does this post refer to? Did NTodd get lucky?
to hell with the topic - i'm obsessed -
my plans for my new iPood:
- classical music, mostly Bach and before, Liszt and after
- extensive early jazz from 1916 - 1942
- modern jazz starting with Bird, Coltrane, and Weather Report
- old-timey country recordings from the 20's and 30's
- some folk music from ireland and bulgaria, also klezmer klassics
.
And then Mitchell went on to say Boxer "seemed" to question Rice's singleness.

oh I dunno if that's what he's referring to, I posted a link about this in comments a few days ago.
I understand what the people in NOLA are going through, but giving up civil liberties is no solution.
See this blog for what I think is the best view of the whole situation:
www.librarychronicles.blogspot.com
And I know that most NOLA bloggers disagree, but nobody in that city gave a fuck until a "white woman of the professional class" was killed. That is just a fact. Racism, as usual for NOLA, lies at the heart of everything...
"However, I ain't married to Atrios, so I sure as fuck don't mind meld with him"

It works best when a man goes into his cave, puts on a bra and listens to Barry Manilow.

haha. fools.
I have someone at work who cheerfully is willing to give up all kinds of privacy in order to feel safer, using the whole "I've done nothing wrong and I have nothing to hide." It is very tiring and futile trying to explain what's wrong with that. These people foolishly believe mistakes are never made and the government is always acting in good faith.

Louisiana Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu campaigned for Lieberman last October, saying, "I do believe that Sen. Lieberman's record in the Senate justifies my support of him, not only what he's done for Connecticut, but what he's done for Louisiana, what he's done for the nation." Did Lieberman discuss his decision not to pursue the Katrina investigation with Landrieu?

puppethead - I like to point out to such people that their odds of dying in an auto accident are about one million times greater, then ask if they are prepared to surrender their drivers' license so they can be made "safe".
People who don't give a second thought to the more important stuff see this idea as what it is - completely ludicrous - just like the demands that we surrender all privacy in the name of "safety".

But I guess the "What's your favorite museum ever and why?" game just won't fly.
My answer is here, by the by.
Of maybe here.
my plans for my new iPood:
That should shuffle like a sumbitch, TV.
I think the iTunes/iPod "random play" mode has some sort of "learning" algorithm and makes more and more "connections" the more you use it. I'd swear to this, in fact.
You gotta "season" your iPod. Mine is four years old and should have its own radio show.
In the absence of a link, we've managed to come up with three entirely separate reasons why Mary Landrieu deserves to be mocked, and/or tarred and feathered and/or shot (take your pick):
1) Asking FEMA to share info with the cops;
2) Campaigning for Holy Joe; and
3) Using weasel-words about troop funding.

Lumpenprolitariot
They were killed three days apart. There was NOWHERE NEAR the outrage until Helen Hill was killed--it's a post hoc justification, IMO. And Dinerral Shavers was a celebrity of sorts--drummer for a brass band. I can assure you if he had just been some unknown working class black man or woman, nobody would have given two shits about it.
But this is just my opinion, based on living there for 7 years. And in any event, my larger point is that these murders should not be used as an excuse to crack down on civil liberties (as rorschach can attest personally, the NOPD needs no encouragement in that regard)--install cameras, random searches, share private info b/w FEMA and cops, etc.
Proving a Spanish proverb: Mala hierba nunca muere. (Weeds never die.)
Seriously... why can't Joe have a brain aneurysm or Cheney finally succumb to his mechanical heart?
maybe Dawkins is right. There is no God.
And then Mitchell went on to say Boxer "seemed" to question Rice's singleness.
The media is trying to help the bush administration change the subject. Let's make Condi into a victim instead of the soulless, warmongering, icecube she really is. And why would they do it? Because it comes much to close to home for their comfort. The average reporter/producer/media exec has as much connection to the soldiers as does Condi.
