No, the people on television are a big part of the problem.
That's like blaming the entire internet for child and women exploitation.
She was a level-headed dancer on the road to alcohol
And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal
Well she pressed her chest against me
About the time the juke box broke
Yeah, she gave me a peck on the back of the neck
And these are the words she spoke

Blow up your TV throw away your paper
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches

Laura Bush recently had her hair done by famed New York City stylist Sally Hershberger, who charges $700. But I guess that is okay with the republicans because there is no hypocrisy - she is an unapologetic rich capitalist maven who is proud of not caring about the poor except when needed for personal servants.
TV isn't the problem--go watch Bill Moyers Journal on Impeachment. Seriously, this could light a fire under folks, and you may know what a pessimist I am.
hello moonbats 
Bush said today that the current strategy in Iraq is brand new and the surge is only a few weeks on.
heh,
this all points to two things,
rightwing whackjob media types are paid to repeat the memes-of-destruction
and
the left thinks this shit is beneath them...too bad. we should refine that art and exploit it I guess
But at the very least, if the left puts the wingonutiness on a loop in just as vigorously, that should work.
damnit, i'm dragging up my post from below:
I've supported Kucinich recently, as I think he's needed during the campaign, not really that he's all that I'd want in a potus.
I keep hoping for President Gore, or Howard Dean. I'd be thrilled beyond belief with either.
Jeez, Pretaeus is not making our guys in Iraq happy:
He [Al-Suneid, a Shiite lawmaker close to al-Maliki] criticized U.S. overtures to Sunni groups in Anbar and Diyala, encouraging former insurgents to join the fight against al-Qaida in Iraq. "These are gangs of killers," he said.
Journalist Jim Miklaszewski took $30,000 from the Chamber of Commerce for a speaking appearance in which he criticized Edwards over the haircut.
In what universe would anyone pay $30,000 to hear what Jim Miklaszewski had to say on a given evening?
Can this be anything other than a bribe (or payment for services rendered) from the Chamber of Commerce?
Anyone seen Sen. David Vitter?
Also -- you might not have heard about this -- Howard Dean screamed at a campaign event. Screamed, screamed screamed. Out of control, unhinged, screamy-screming. Didja hear about Dean screaming? What is he, unhinged? Because, you know, he screamed at that campaign thing. Well, I heard that scream and I guess he must be unhinged, because of the screaming.
I'd like to discuss this with you at length, but I killed myself after the ninety-hundredth replaying of and analysis of the scream. That Dean screamed.
she is an unapologetic rich capitalist maven who is proud of not caring about the poor except when needed for personal servants.
Hey, they're ok with her for photo ops, too. As long as they're cleaned up nice.
Good morning, all.
The CBS station here in Los Angeles ran a story last night about a local soldier who paid a hit man $500 to shoot him in the leg (he then claimed it was a robbery attempt) in order to avoid redeployment to Iraq. He'd already done at least one tour, maybe more.

it was not a 'scream' it was a yell. An excellent yell, too. I'd pay big bucks to get him on the campaign trail again yellin'. Somebody needs to do some yelling, a lot of it. Besides me, that is.

Read about that. The soldier had served one tour in Iraq and he, his wife, and the shooter could all go to jail. The soldier was quoted as saying that anything jail had to offer wold not be as bad as the Iraqupation.

I think this election may be about TV vs Internet more than candidate A vs. Candidate B.
I made a ridiculus mistake the other day and turned The View on. My basic cable is getting very little use and it should have stayed that way. Nonetheless, sometimes the STUPID blonde GOP sympathizers play their talking points too early, letting everyone clearly see whats coming. EH said something like oh, let me explain what blogs are, just any individual putting there opinions out there. Of course this plays into the senior citizen GOP voters that want to believe that the News (Fox) is gospel and the internet is youthful, inexperienced rabble rowsers. Here it comes and we should be ahead of it. My lowly opinion, FWIW

So I'm untrustworthy unless I sit there in front of the tube gritting my teeth for hours watching all that propaganda and inane spew, just so I can know what nonsense the public is being fed? Nonsense. We have scrubbing bubbles for that, and among other names, They're called Atrios.
anyone have any info, links to the benchmark that involves iraq oil.
this is true--original name for the mis-adventure in Iraq was
Operation Iraqi Liberty
then they saw what the initials would spell!
I heard the benchmark involves giving the profits to foreign oil companies instead of Iraq
that was a really good effort by media matters.
Their work is amazing. I sent Justin Cole a video of a Fox program on Monday morning. Poor guy's head almost exploded.
Bush and Tony Snowjob make yet more ridiculous claims about Iraq and the people who attacked us on 9-11.
It's all designed to dupe the rubes.

The new "haircut story" is Edwards and Clinton talking while the Wurlitzer plays (literally) to "limit the debates". CNN has played that story a hundred times and just played it again.
I watch TV pretty often. I watch a bunch of HBO stuff, Scrubs reruns, Arrested Development reruns. Sometimes stupid stuff like What Not to Wear or Project Runway.
I'll watch CNN or MSNBC if someone here says, "quick, look!" and I'll probably watch Keith now that Comedy has fucked up my TDS/Colbert viewing schedule.

the haircut story is much like the 'scream' story.
but hillary approaching edwards thinking she wasn't on air is very interesting.
The story that resonates loudly with my local Joe Six-pack neighbors is the Iraqi parliament month-long vacation. Dem pols would be wise to mention this often. Too hot for Iraqi leaders to work in an air conditioned building, but not too hot for our sons and daughters to patrol in full armor while people try to kill them?
my brother got a snazzy new phone a couple of weeks ago
a Nokia N95, its so cool
Zap -- did you buy a house?
The key media play the democrats would make if they were a credible party, and the blogs/grass-roots need to make since the democrats are not credible is to chain Bush firmly around the neck of every prominent republican candidate.

Iraqi government is taking the month of August off. DEMs need to keep that out there.

I think I would spin it another way...by saying obviously the Iraqi Parliament is taking their cues about how royalty should behave by observing that Bush takes off a month every August to spend at his fake ranch, while our sons and daughters patrol Iraq in full armor (if they are lucky enough to have it) in the heat with people trying to kill them.

Waiting to be watched on the Trout-o-vision: Season 3 of Deadwood. I can't wait to watch those fucking cocksuckers with their fuzzy morality.
Public health doctors are bracing themselves for a further decline in public confidence in the MMR jab as the long-awaited hearing into alleged serious professional misconduct by Andrew Wakefield and two other doctors gets under way at the General Medical Council on Monday.
Mr Wakefield, the gastroenterologist whose theory of a link between the combined measles, mumps and rubella jab and autism in children has been firmly discounted by most of the medical establishment, will not be on trial for his views. But anti-vaccine pressure groups and some parents of autistic children believe he is being victimised for them. The GMC hearings, scheduled to last 14 weeks, are likely to reignite an impassioned debate which the public health community had hoped would fade away.

In our house, the TV is mainly a source of trashy cartoons to keep our son occupied when we have other things to do and can't pay attention to him. On the occasions that I do watch, it's always either a PBS documentary of some kind or something on the Discovery or Science channels, like Mythbusters or Survivorman. I guess the wife also watches local news and trashy TV entertainment tabloids. I avoid that shit by hiding in the kitchen.
CNN and the like, though, I only ever watch when there is a major disaster, not counting the Bush presidency.

In that case, I got a great deal because I ain't got and never will have a first born.
But no, it's normally 399, VZ sells it for 239 with a new contract, the dude gave me 30 bucks off (making it the same price as his silver version), I had 100 bucks credit since my contract had a "New every 2" dealio (my previous phone was almost 4 years old), and I get a 50 dollar rebate. I have unlimited basic data service and for 15 bucks a month I can add the broadband stuff (will later when I am out and about getting arrested).
Best thing is that it gets way better reception at the house than my old phone...

but as he and my mum are out for the evening I have it all to myself
This morning I woke up and saw the CNN webpage headline as "Putin Withdraws Russia from Arms Treaty." Pretty important news. Doesn seem too good for Dear Leader who just had Pootie-poot over to his lil camp in Kennebunkport for friendly chat and negotiations. Fortunately, that unpatriotic headline was quickly changed to "3rd Doctor Arrested in UK Terror Plot." Much more of a useless fear generating and therefore patriotic headline for the idiot masses to think about, eh?.

Thanks, blerb. If I was going to get just one, what would it be?
Picking up on that not trusting people who say they don't watch TV...
Get over yourself.
TV in its current form is a pretty shitty, non-interactive medium. Sure most people still use that channel than they do blogs, but it turns out I get more than enough exposure to TV through these here blog things (thanks, Crooks and Liars, et alia).
Anyway, I really don't watch TV because I can't get any reception w/o satellite, and I canceled that 18 months ago. Sure, if CNN's on in the airport bar I'll see it, but "watching" generally means "on a regular basis" in this context. C'mon...

British con artist Howard Welsh toured US cities like a modern-day snake oil salesman, targeting Christians with bogus investment plans and scamming his way to some £16m.
But his face ended up on the FBI's Most Wanted website and despite crisscrossing continents while on the run, he was today starting a 20-year stretch in a US jail.
Most of the 900-odd victims of Liverpool-born Welsh, 63, had one thing in common: they fell victim to his callous manipulation of their religious faith.

Hitchens is a monster, of course, but you have to love it when he battles with an even more unlovely monster, in this case Michael Gerson:
"In a world without God," [Gerson] writes, "this desire for love and purpose is a cruel joke of nature -- imprinted by evolution but designed for disappointment." Again, he substitutes the wish for the thought. We very probably are, as he admits, not the designed objects of the Big Bang or of the process of natural selection. But this sober conclusion, objective as it is, is surely preferable to the delusion that we have been created diseased, by a capricious despot, and then abruptly commanded to be whole and well, on pain of terror and torture. That sick joke is one that we can cease to find impressive, that belongs in the infancy of our species, and gives a false picture of reality that we would do well to outgrow.
It's not the filibuster I object to. It's the hypocrisy in the reporting when the party doing the filibustering changes.
I'm with you there. When the Dems were in the minority using all the defenses they could, they were vilified by the GOP and media as trying to stomp on The Will of The People. Now...?

The solo on "Zombie Woof" is my all-time favorite guitar solo.
There's a short documentary I just saw that talks about the two albums. I was chartreuse with envy watching Dweezil at the mixing board, playing with the tracks just for the hell of it.

Crap. iTunes is not coming through for me on the Zappa front.
"In a world without God," [Gerson] writes, "this desire for love and purpose is a cruel joke of nature -- imprinted by evolution but designed for disappointment."
I'll warrant that there are more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamt of in Gerson's philosophy. I don't ever understand how these poeple, in ruminating on the question of ultimate purpose, can get any real philosophical satisfaction by merely deferring the matter up one level in the cosmic food chain. Why does God Exist, Mr. Gerson? Who created Him?
My all-time favorite guitar solo is Robert Fripp on Bowie's "Teenage Wildlife"

Have you used this service before? Is it legitimately authorized to sell the cuts? 18 cents each seems awfully cheap, and I notice they're going to be in Russia with my credit card number.
BTW I found that Apostrophe is the one album I probably know the most of, but I'd like to have it anyway. And then another one I'm not so familiar with.
I find my local used CD place is an increasingly great place to find the classics, as people up load their old CDs and sell them off to make some $. Very little Zappa, tho.
