How can we tie any explosion to any particular statement? I bet someone in that town that day said we should just give our oil to Americans if they leave us alone - maybe that is what sparked the bombing.

GravatarGore Vidal says that this country can't survive another two years with these people in charge. (He was more polite than I am.) I believe this is true. He said that Pelosi was stupid to say impeachment was off the table. If he were chairman of the Armed Services Committee he would hold many hearings starting with what happened before and after 9/11 and including the money that has been spent in Iraq. We have to get rid of them or there is nothing left of the life we knew.

Propaganda circulating in Afghanistan and Pakistan about American "atrocities" and jihadist "heroics" has also energized the Taliban, encouraging a previously somewhat isolated movement to see itself as part of a wider struggle. Our study found a striking correlation in how terrorist campaigns intensified in Iraq and Afghanistan. The rate of terrorist attacks in Afghanistan gathered pace in the summer of 2005, a half year after a similar increase in Iraq, and in 2006 the rate of attacks in both countries rose in tandem to new, unprecedented levels.

Geniuses. Just PURE Fucking Genius. The GOP has managed to unite the Arab terror contingent, something which otherwise would never have occured in a million years.

Gravatar"(CBS) They say they are not disloyal. They say they are not shirking their duty and that they do not oppose war. But more than 1,000 active-duty and reserve members of the U.S. military are against the war in Iraq and have said so in an unusually public way — by petitioning Congress last month.

Several of them appear to explain their actions to correspondent Lara Logan this Sunday, Feb. 25, at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

"I'm not anti-war. I'm not a pacifist. I'm not opposed to protecting our country and defending our principles," says Navy Petty Officer Jonathan Hutto, an Iraq war veteran who, along with another veteran, initiated the petition.

A 1995 law called the Military Whistleblower act enables military personnel to express their own opinions about Iraq in protected communication directly to Congress.

Hutto and others spoke with 60 Minutes while off duty, off base and out of uniform as conscientious citizens. "But at the same time, as citizens, it's our obligation to have a questioning attitude … about policy," Hutto tells Logan."

health care coverage more affordable and accessible for all Americans.

The Joke's Over: Ralph Steadman on Hunter S. Thompson
Ralph Steadman

Description: Illustrator Ralph Steadman talks about his longtime friendship with the late Hunter S. Thompson and the drawings that accompanied many of Thompson's books and magazine articles. During this event, Mr. Steadman discusses the creation of gonzo journalism, shares stories about his time together with Hunter S. Thompson, and shows a large selection of his drawings. He also talks about Hunter S. Thompson's funeral. This program contains language and images that some viewers may find offensive.

Author Bio: Ralph Steadman first started working with Hunter S. Thompson in 1970, when he and Thompson covered the Kentucky Derby together. He is, most famously, the illustrator for Thompson's "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas." Mr. Steadman has also illustrated a 50th anniversary edition of George Orwell's "Animal Farm" and Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland." His own books include "I·Leonardo" and "The Grapes of Ralph."

Lionel Hampton's wasn't.


GravatarThis looks promising:
The movie leans heavily on Village Voice journalist Wayne Barrett's evisceration of a biography, titled "Rudy!" Barrett dug deep in Giuliani's biographical back yard and unearthed gems, not least the information that Mr. Clean's father was a stickup man and loan shark who swung a mean baseball bat. The film also shines a light on Giuliani's record as associate attorney general in Ronald Reagan's Justice Department, where he led efforts to deport Haitian boat people.

"Repression," Giuliani announces after returning from a meeting with President Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier, "simply does not exist now" in Haiti.

GravatarIt varies. I think there've been as many as 12 at some performances.

That really is pretty stunning. Quinnipiac's new poll has Giuliani at 40% in the race for the GOP nomination. McCain clocks in at a relatively feeble 18%. And Romney, with 7%, is beat out by Gingrich at 10%.

I'm really not convinced Giuliani can win the GOP nod as a pro-choice, pro-gay rights candidate. But numbers trump opinions.

GravatarAnother Pat Tillman?

"An Army representative initially told LaVena's father, Dr. John Johnson, that his daughter died of "died of self-inflicted, noncombat injuries" and initially added it was not a suicide -- in other words, an accidental death caused by LaVena herself. The subsequent Army investigation reversed this finding and declared LaVena's death a suicide, a finding refuted by the soldier's family. In an article in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Dr. Johnson pointed to indications that his daughter had endured a physical struggle before she died -- two loose front teeth, a "busted lip" that had to be reconstructed by the funeral home -- suggesting that "someone might have punched her in the mouth."

A promise by the office of Representative William Lacy Clay to look into the matter produced nothing. The military said that the matter was closed.

Little more on LaVena's death was said until St. Louis CBS affiliate KMOV aired a story on Thursday which disclosed troubling details not previously made public - details which belie the Army's assertion that the young Florissant native died by her own hand. The video of the report is available on the KMOV website."

Gravatar"Reporter Matt Sczesny spoke with LaVena's father and examined documents and photos sent by Army investigators. So far from supporting the claim that LaVena died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, the documents provided elements of another scenario altogether:

Indications of physical abuse that went unremarked by the autopsy

The absence of psychological indicators of suicidal thoughts; indeed, testimony that LaVena was happy and healthy prior to her death

Indications, via residue tests, that LaVena may not even have handled the weapon that killed her

A blood trail outside the tent where Lavena's body was found

Indications that someone attenpted to set LaVena's body on fire

The Army has resisted calls by Dr. Johnson and by KMOV to reopen its investigation." http://www.alternet.org/blogs/pe...ogs/peek/48365/

Best kitchen floor I ever had was a sprung wood one. Real wood, not laminate, but popped together the way the laminates are, over a thing layer of plastic membrane - it was like working on a fine dance floor. And, when you dropped things? They bounced! Big jars of mayonnaise! Bottles of pickles! Greatest thing I ever had in the kitchen. A snap to keep clean, the wood was pre-laquered within an inch of its life. You could spill a bowl of hot spaghetti sauce on it and it all came right up with a couple of paper towels. Loved it!

GravatarAmericans Underestimate Iraqi Death Toll
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/hu...in-iraq-ap- poll
WASHINGTON — Americans are keenly aware of how many U.S. forces have lost their lives in Iraq, according to a new AP-Ipsos poll. But they woefully underestimate the number of Iraqi civilians who have been killed.

When the poll was conducted earlier this month, a little more than 3,100 U.S. troops had been killed. The midpoint estimate among those polled was right on target, at about 3,000.

Far from a vague statistic, the death toll is painfully real for many Americans. Seventeen percent in the poll know someone who has been killed or wounded in Iraq. And among adults under 35, those closest to the ages of those deployed, 27 percent know someone who has been killed or wounded.

For Daniel Herman, a lawyer in New Castle, Pa., a co-worker's nephew is the human face of the dead.

The number of Iraqis killed, however, is much harder to pin down, and that uncertainty is perhaps reflected in Americans' tendency to lowball the Iraqi death toll by tens of thousands.

Iraqi civilian deaths are estimated at more than 54,000 and could be much higher; some unofficial estimates range into the hundreds of thousands. The U.N. Assistance Mission for Iraq reports more than 34,000 deaths in 2006 alone.

Among those polled for the AP survey, however, the median estimate of Iraqi deaths was 9,890. The median is the point at which half the estimates were higher and half lower.

Gravatar'I'm not sure a broken army, guard and reserve is that great when we have Blackwater here.
Lumpenprolitariot'

Those National Guardsmen being sent back again and again, with the jobs they held back home getting more and more scarce, I suspect we're seeing a real diminution in the numbers who make it. 'Breaking the army' looks to me like another way of making sure not a lot of knowledgeable people survive to tell about what happened over there. Maybe I'm excessively cynical.


GravatarThat really is pretty stunning. Quinnipiac's new poll has Giuliani at 40% in the race for the GOP nomination. McCain clocks in at a relatively feeble 18%. And Romney, with 7%, is beat out by Gingrich at 10%.

No average person is thinking about this yet. And probably no crazy wingnuts either.

GravatarSinfonian,

Yeah, not too little anymore. That is the large, fast, puck-carrying defenseman I brag to Plum P about every once in a while. He is merely 6-3 and 215 lbs of buff muscle now. Just graduated from MSU and is looking forward to his career in the Criminal Justice system - should begin shortly he thinks. But to me he will always be the little guy I sat up with at night when his mamma had to go back to work and I was laid off. I was lucky enough to be with him most of his first two years of his life. That is a great thing.

But I still remember him making his baseball debut . . . .

The four most terrifying words in the English language:

GravatarSteve,

I was looking for you earlier. You brought up Eva Cassidy. I am not sure how much of your story you know but it is just so fucking tragic.

She was a local sensation in the DC area but could never get any more than that. Made two or three CDs (self produced) and sold them out of the trunk of her car. Finally got breast cancer and died. Some DJ in England picked up her version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow and used it for a telethon of some sort. Went straight to the top of the pop charts.

Why can't we find these people - writers, musicians, actors, painters, sculpters - while they are still alive?

So sad.


GravatarIn fact, before Sedona went New-Agey, people went there for Slide Rock and the Minutemen were old-style right-wing wackos up there rather than at the border.


GravatarOkay, I really need to go. Talk to y'all later ...


Gravatarsmalfish, good bean/fart jokes. So I dunno how tolerant you are about hearing for days about it.


GravatarSinfonian,

When I was chairman of the school's school improvement committee, I used to have to go to Lansing periodically to meet with the mucketymucks at the State Department of Education. I described Lansing as having a dome of ignorance around it, nothing gets in and nothing gets out.


GravatarAs I understood it, Cassady's cancer was in her hips, and went undiagnosed until she developed a slight limp. "Songbird" went to #1 on the UK charts, and then became popular here.


GravatarSo sad.

I knew the story, and of course you're right. But it's also a pretty damning indictment of a record bizness that wouldn't know good music if it bit them in the ass.


Gravatar"Car bombs kill dozens; blasts rattle Baghdad

Attackers targeted a Sunni mosque near Baghdad on Saturday, setting off a car bomb that killed 39 people and wounded more than 60. Meanwhile, just hours after Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki cited progress in the effort to restore order in Baghdad, car bombs and mortar rounds killed nine people and injured 42 there. Saturday night, a series of blasts were heard in the city" --cnn.com

I like the way they use "meanwhile."

It's going to get worse and worser no matter what we do.

GravatarSinfonian,

Other weird fact: Mason (fictional town) is actually the setting for the college in CHALLENGE. I did not even know of such a town. I thought I had invented it. In my mind it was an amalgam of Holland, GR, and Muskegon.

It is not just the recording industry It is everything. How does one differentiate themselves from the mass of material?

Used to live up there, and didn't find that to be the case no matter how many times I heard the Ghandarvas, the Tea Party, the Tragically Hip, or Bran Van 3000. Or Godspeed! You Black Emperor, for that matter.

However, I'm sure there are indeed fine bands up there who don't make it down. And being as my taste for rock music is pretty well sated, my opinion doesn't count for shit anyway.

Anyway, if listening to Arcade Fire is the price I have to pay for you guys invading and reinstating the rule of law, I'll pay it gladly.

I've been hating it about as much as I can stand for the past couple months anyway. It is a big project, but a lot of it's already done. We know the contractor well and get along with him.

And we'll be out of the house most days anyway. It's a big place, and we're cramming ourselves into one bedroom, so it should be OK.

The alternative would to pay rent and mortgage simulataneously, which has its own drawbacks.
