Impeach!
I am not even going to try and run the bases.
It isn't always about money, Carville. God, why does anyone listen to that man?
But Mary Matalin told him to!
He was good in his day, but James Carville has become another asshat. As a fellwo Louisianan, it pains me to say that. Still, he is light years better than Paul Begala.
Hillary's paying a price for listening to the likes of James Carville.
Ask me about my granddog.

No one could have imagined that a top Democratic strategist in bed with a top Republican strategist would give bad advice at a huge markup.
Harold Ford? Fer cryin' out loud.
Good fucking gawd.
Don't we have, like, an election to win, and stuff?
Harold fucking Ford?
These guys refuse to accept the fact that their game is over. The base is sick of them. They truly are tone deaf.
They're starting shooting on a more realistic "West Wing" series starring James and George. It's called "The Worst Wing".
The dictionary fell open at "Harridan", and there Mary Matalin's picture was.
carville, begala, brazile....on and fucking on they must be purged and move into the true party they stand for: the monied party, aka teh GOPer fucks
is it here?
We're pretty much fucked, because I think anyone who tries to buck the system is going to be booted.
How can we prevent this from happening to Dean?
Oh, and how stupid was it for Carville to base his argument against Dean that Ford would be a better fundraiser? Bahaha.

I forgot to tell you: I sent the video of the hawk to our local bird d00d and he said,
I had to go to the hawk book for this one. I knew that distinctive "V" shaped pattern on the back was familiar but I couldn't remember which one has that.
This is an immature Red-tailed Hawk. There's a rough rule of thumb in the birding world. "If you can see it, it's a Red-tailed." This is partly because they're the one species whose range covers the entire US. Most other hawks are limited to either east or west of the Rockies, or north of the Great Lakes, something like that.

The men are accused of wearing indecent clothes, playing loud music and dancing in order to attract the attention of girls, the Saudi Gazette reported.
They were arrested following a request of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice.

Personally, Howard has an extremely thick hide. And I think the results of the 50 state strategy speak for themselves.
Yes, he's very conservative with spending. He's always been something of a cheapskate, but that's a good thing.
And he works his ass off for the greater good, not for himself. Just walked by his house and he's home for the first time in ages. Hope he's got the computer off for a day or two.

February 23, 2008 -- MICHELLE Obama struck a raw nerve earlier this week when she suggested she had never been proud of her country until now. "For the first time in my adult lifetime," the 44-year-old wife of Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama told a Milwaukee crowd, "I'm really proud of my country."
Conservative pundits and bloggers were quick to criticize her. Even Sen. John McCain's wife, Cindy, let it be known that she's never had any problem being proud of her country.

OT: The fearsome hunting skills of a wild rattlesnake have been caught on camera for the first time.
Using a specially designed camera trap, a BBC crew managed to film the snake killing and then eating his victim - a small mouse - in the wild.
The mouse died almost immediately after being stabbed and injected with the timber rattlesnake's deadly venom.
The snake hunt was filmed in New York State, US, under the guidance of rattlesnake expert Harry Greene.
He helped the crew track the snake by using radio telemetry.
The footage forms part of the BBC One series Life in Cold Blood.

Dagnabbit, why aren't you on one of the panels that reviews my grants?
Carville's political acumen and genius was more likely a product of self-promotion and running a Presidential campaign during a Bush economy with a conservative third party candidate running. He managed to lose Democratic majorities in the House and Senate for the first time in 40 years with his brilliant political strategering during a booming economy.

Inflation in India rose more than expected in early February to a six month high on rising food prices.
The wholesale price index hit 4.35% for the year up to 9 February, as the price of vegetables, fruit and lentils rose.
Economists expect inflation to head higher still as last week's rise in fuel prices starts to take effect.
Inflation remains below the Indian central bank's target rate of 5% but economists say it could breach that level in the near future.

Bush Hopes Recession Doesn't Affect Sales Of His Memoirs
WASHINGTON—President George W. Bush told reporters Monday that he remains optimistic that the impending recession will end before his memoirs go on sale. "With any luck, we can pull together as a nation and get through this thing before Dec. 15, 2010," said Bush, referring to the tentative release date of his autobiography, Born Leading. "It would be a terrible tragedy if this massive economic downturn left the average American family unable to afford the $39.95 plus tax they need to buy my book." Bush added that he is currently considering an exclusive straight- to-paperback deal with Wal-Mart to make his memoirs less costly should the country slide into a crippling economic depression.

Troop Morale Boosted By Surprise Visit From First Dog
BAGHDAD—U.S. troops stationed in Iraq hailed an unannounced and unaccompanied visit Monday from Barney, the senior White House dog who belongs to President Bush and First Lady Laura Bush.
Landing in Baghdad's Green Zone amid extremely tight security, the Scottish terrier met with nearly 800 troops at a military mess hall, then visited Camp Victory, the U.S. military headquarters on the outskirts of Baghdad. In both locations, the 6-year-old First Dog was greeted with loud cheers and standing ovations by servicemen and women.
"Barney's visit really cheered us all up," said Army Spc. Anthony Udall, who was given the privilege of escorting Barney across the airport tarmac. "I can't tell you how great it is that the White House would send one of its own to spend some time with us out here."
Although the dog was in Iraq for less than a day, he maintained a busy schedule while there. Events included handshakes with top U.S. field commanders, a tour of the base's new recreation facility, and a ride in an armored vehicle. Besides sitting and staying at a military briefing, Barney also participated in the ground-breaking for a new visitors reception center at Camp Victory, during which he energetically dug alongside camp officials.
"As soon as he stepped off the plane, it was clear he was interested in what was happening on the ground here," said Gen. George Casey, commander of Multi-National Force-Iraq who met with the First Dog in the courtyard outside his office at Camp Victory. "He seemed extremely enthusiastic about the whole situation and he was even visibly excited about some of the progress we're making."
But the visit's highlight was the First Dog's encounter with soldiers, who were clearly taken with his presence. Sitting with his head cocked to one side, he listened intently to the soldiers' concerns before receiving a treat and a pat on the head. Barney showed further solidarity with the troops by accepting an impromptu invitation to a belated Thanksgiving feast, during which he impressed servicemen and women with his hearty, nondiscriminating appetite.
The First Dog also received a tummy rub courtesy of the 100th Infantry Battalion.
McCain ain't the only one with Paxson's stink on him.
"In June 1999, WQED and Paxson engaged heavy-hitting lobbyist Patton Boggs. Since then, Patton Boggs attorneys Lanny Davis and Thomas Siebert, Congressmen Ron Klink (D-PA), Frank Mascara (D-PA), Steny Hoyer (D-MD) and Billy Tauzin (R-LA) all have written in support of the application."
Zap, you can't be because I am 
That's Rodrigo, you brilliant engineer/supermodel. Duh.
Sen. McStain
But she has a Joaquin closet.
I think Dean has the curse of Cassandra, politically-speaking.
The First Dog
Barney, the highest-ranking official to visit Iraq in months, had a full schedule:
8 a.m. Morning walk with generals on the ground
9 a.m. "Sit-down" with troops
10:30 a.m. Game of catch
12 p.m. Lunch, photo ops
1 p.m. Bathroom break
1:05 p.m. Moment of silence for fallen soldiers
2 p.m. Treats
remember when the propaganda was that small family farms could not compete with gigantor farms so they should sell out to ADM or ConAgra? remember when cable said DEREGULATION would lower prices? remember when electric companies said that deregulation would lower prices?

Tate & Lyle sugar sold in shops is to be Fairtrade accredited, making it the biggest UK firm to carry the label.
Granulated white cane sugar will be the brand's first Fairtrade product but it says it expects its entire retail range to follow by the end of 2009.
To earn a Fairtrade label, firms must pay local producers a fair price, and invest further to improve working conditions and local sustainability.
The firm says it will add £60m to the value of Fairtrade sugar inside a year.
Fairtrade Foundation executive director Harriet Lamb said: "In terms of size and scale, this is the biggest ever Fairtrade switch by a UK company and it's tremendous this iconic UK brand is backing Fairtrade."

Carville's problem is for all his bluster, he was raised on a diet of concilliating and big money doners. Any actual leadership or firmly held beliefs that won't be bargained away are foreign to him. Small donations are to be sneered at. In the Cathedral vs. the Bizaar metaphor, he's the bishop.

CityKid (uppity)
Yeah, it's teh kewl, how does he get the part so wide?
de Lucia, di Meola, and McLaughlin
Don't know de Lucia well, but as to the others...playing more notes in less time does not equal musical talent.
Answering the zen koan, "What is the sound of polishing a hot dog with industrial-grade sandpaper?"
Dear gawd, that's funny!
Calm down V.
I'm still on Ford's mailing list (to lazy to get removed) and Ford is always sending out emails touting his appearances on Fox. I don't know why he just doesn't switch now. One shouldn't hide one's transpolitical confusion. Just come out and admit it.
If Pickler isn't a paid GOP operative, I'd be shocked.

Yeah she's really come a long way from the "when so and so says this and that he fails to note thus and such" days.
She's much more rounded these days.
Especially her heels.
MP, figured out the problem. Bad paypal link. Should be fixed now.

Gromit, then you really don't know Paco de Lucìa
Brilliant, no matter how many notes he plays.

SNAP!
I am still considering Liars for McBush
I like it.
I also bet as soon as they're done they bolt for separate showers.
Paco de Lucìa is a gypsy so it's kind of ironic to see him playing with a philharmonic orchestra
i'd imagine that it's hard for Carville to scream with that ball gag in his mouth.
In Matalin's space, no one can hear you scream.
I'm gone - bats need a charge - can't wait to see Nader on Meet the Press.
later folks.

Molly Ivors, Blue
Molly, did you get my payment for myself and Mrs. David?
Don't know de Lucia well, but as to the others...playing more notes in less time does not equal musical talent.
Me either on Paco. I am a big fan of Al and John, but not in a setting where they just riff acoustically for an hour or so.
I would imagine. Ms. Matalin has the perpetual look of someone who just smelled a fart.
Funny, because that was the look the plastic surgeon went for when he took the scalpel to Mrs. Carville's face.
Speaking of Democrats who like to help Republicans...
"But Lanny Davis, a Washington, D.C., lawyer who was lobbying on WQED's behalf, said yesterday in an Internet posting that he had tried to get Mr. McCain to write a stronger letter to the FCC [on behalf of Paxson and WQED].
Mr. Davis wanted the letter to "point out the fact of the financial distress faced by ... WQED."
But, he said, the senator "was only willing to send a letter with a 'vanilla' status inquiry, together with a request that the matter be handled as expeditiously as possible."
Harold Ford Jr. is a regular on Fox News, too.
There is a large faction of the political establishment that has not gotten the clue that the political landscape is changing and the country is moving left. These are people who think pandering to right-wingers will appeal to "the middle," but they fail to realize that the right wing is a dinosaur.
Anyway, at least we in Tennessee replaced Harold Ford Jr. with a progressive, Steve Cohen.
,i>Ben wa balls the size of grapefruits.
Durian.
Good article on Michelle Obama here.
As for me, I bet Matalin's girl parts look like Col. Henry Blake's fishing hat.
Girl's a freak.

It was weird, it went through without an error on the page, but I never saw it come out of the account.
I'll give it another go. Do you have the link handy?
Ahh, the depth of the expertise, it is staggering . . .
MP -- that was a seriously generous and wonderful thing you did.

Molly,
Oh. Ok, thanks.
New cases of HIV/Aids in China soared by 45 per cent last year compared with 2006, the Health Ministry in Beijing has revealed. The staggering rise was put down to changing social attitudes and an improvement in data collection.
The government had said late last year that 700,000 people were living with the virus, an increase from an earlier estimate of 650,000. The year before, China lowered its estimate to 650,000 from 840,000, despite warnings from international experts that the disease was spreading due to ignorance and because many people were too afraid or too poor to seek help.
The ministry gave few details about the large percentage rise in sexually transmitted diseases or those passed through the blood. There was also a sharp rise of 24 per cent in syphilis cases.

Big thumbs up to MP!
I wish I could take the opportunity to benefit from your generosity, but it's great to know others will.
You rock!
Funny, because that was the look the plastic surgeon went for when he took the scalpel to Mrs. Carville's face.
heh.
Said surgeon was successful in recreating the smart-feller look, but added a bit more pinch a la Gilbert Gottfried.

I know I started this conversation, but... eww.
If you go here http://www.sharonisbin.com/ you can hear a bit of Sharon Isbin's performance of the Rodrigo Adagio, as written.
It's one of my favorite performances. Gorgeous shadings of tone. Stately pace. etc etc.
It's the wallpaper music at her site, and unfortunately it's just a loop, not the whole movement.
Lanny Davis is a scumbag.

Mrs. Moe has been invited to give a talk at Yale. I told her she should turn it down, tell 'em that, given the small-brainedness of a certain grad now mucking up the world, the place obviously has no standards at all.
Not that I'm expecting an actual liberal to get elected. It'd probably be a clone of Silent Bob Casey, but it'd still be better than Arlen.
Barbarism Begins at Home | 02.23.08 - 11:15 am
Word. I'd accept an inflatable doll, as long as it voted my way most of the time.
Thing is, I actually thought fairly highly of Snarlin' early in his career.
I'll be sending out another set of confirmations soon, never fear.

Mm. Only slightly less annoying than listening to Celine and Mariah warble at each other.

Better she should give the talk and mention that tidbit IN the speech.
"Nedra Pickler" has got to be one of the most unfortunate names I have ever heard. If I was born "Nedra Pickler" I would change my name to "Anastasia Post" faster than Larry Craig has to change his boxers after a visit to an airport mens room.
Gromit, then you really don't know Paco de Lucìa
Brilliant, no matter how many notes he plays.
Thanks for the tip. It's always nice to find new (to me) talent.
Maybe it's middle age, but I'm drawn to musicians who get the most out of every note (Lynne Arriale, Dave McKenna, Karrin Allyson)

Larry Craig doesn't go commando?
Ewww, did I write that?
More fear-mongering:
Man Carrying Koran, Bible Caught With Box Cutter in Book at Tampa Airport
olice nabbed a 21-year-old Florida man at the Tampa airport after they found him hiding a box cutter in a hollowed-out book titled "Fear Itself."
Benjamin Baines was also found to be carrying the Bible and the Koran, as well as other books on Islam, including "Muhammad in the Bible," "The Prophet's Prayer" and "The Noble Qur'an," The Tampa Tribune reported.

I mean, WHAT ARE THE CHANCES!!!! If only they could have listened to his phone calls!!!!
thanks SteveLG
very nice and different from Paco
(just for everyone's info - Paco is the Spanish nickname for Francisco)
Music i have been downloading
These New Puritans - Elvis
Hercules and Love Affair - "Blind"
Duffy - Mercy
Paco is a payo, not gypsy.

Well, the truck reservation was painless. Rentin' a pickup to pick up the new scoot and the slightly-busted scoot.

What? No "Hussein" in his name?
I love Spanish and classical guitar probably from being exposed to it through my ex-bf who was from South America and a big fan.
There is a big article about paco in the NYT today.
this is pretty cool - Radio Salaam Shalom an online radio station broadcasting a unique mix of intercultural music and speech from Bristol, UK. It focuses on the many aspects of Jewish and Muslim life which allow the two cultures, linked for thousands of years, to talk together and share their experiences.
Off for brunch with friends.
Catch you batses later.
I'm not a bad person for not picking up the phone when my father in-law calls, right?
On John McLaughlin. I've heard him live twice (in Vemront, no less). Once with Mahavishnu Orchestra, and recently in a trio with Joey DeFrancesco (organ) and Dennis Chambers (drums). The latter was a powerful and outstanding concert.

She should slip in that Yale now has all "the prestige of the Eurovision Song Contest", as some Brit winger recently said of the Nobel Peace Prize.
is that a joke? to link to an article about drugs when talking about a person with a spanish name?
how racist!
My ex-MIL's name is Nedra. God knows what her parents were thinking.

Depends on the better half. I answered the phone when my mother in law called last night and got in trouble because her daughter didn't wnat to talk to her.
Uh, the drug is called "paco," actually.
My ex-MIL's name is Nedra.
I know a few Nedra's. That's a good old Southern name.

you didn't bother to read the article, did you?
How lazy.
Sheets. And check now, Molly, if you would.
Years ago when I was a classical music buyer for Tower records (yeah, I know I've told this story a couple of times) several of my colleagues and I had lunch with Renee Fleming.
She was amazingly cool and picked our tiny brains about different projects that were being kicked around.
One of them was a duet with Michael Bolton, with whom she was unfamiliar (I'm sorry to say we were unable to prevent this atrocity from taking place). She asked what we knew about him.
After we stammered around a bit, looking for a diplomatic way to express our distaste, I said: "Okay, if someone's checking out and has three discs and one of them is Michael Bolton, who are the other two? I'd say Mariah Carey and Celine Dion."
That seemed to convey the essence of MB to her.
Did he interrupt the concert with shouts of "MORRRRRRRRR-TON!"?
watertiger
Huh?
Must be an in joke among you cool kids.
Please explain, or get offa my lawn.

Good stuff. I really like her. I hope she isn't forced into becoming a bland automaton as First Lady by the Beltway Chattering Class.
I think President Obama may have something to say about who the new DNC chair will be -- James and Harold can go suck each other's thumbs...
Once we get rid of Billary (get it? GET IT??!), we won't to worry about those bad Bush (Bad Economy) - Clinton (Good Economy) - Bush (Bad Economy) years anymore. They are so much alike the Republicans treated the Clintons with kid gloves when he was in office. I mean, she's practically a Cheney clone. That's why she's rated higher on progressive votes than Obama (ooops!).
why is that fool gollum (a.k.a. James Carville) still on my TV and in the news I read?
.
At least the Tennesseeans were smart enough to elect a real republican.
James Carville is NO LONGER RELEVANT
that is all
