Egypt's ruling National Democratic Party has opened its general congress by voting to keep 79-year-old President Hosni Mubarak as its head.
Party delegates voted overwhelmingly to retain Mr Mubarak for another five years in an uncontested secret ballot.
There had been speculation that the congress would elevate the president's son, Gamal Mubarak, to head the party.
The younger Mr Mubarak has often denied that he is being groomed to succeed his father as Egypt's next president.
The four-day conference is officially to discuss social and economic policy.

Iraq had BLTs.
A huge entertainment bill by military top brass has made the Ministry of Defence the biggest spender on wining and dining in Whitehall, inquiries by the Guardian and MPs have revealed.
The ministry has spent just short of £10m over the last two years, with top military personnel such as Sir Richard Dannatt, chief of general staff, running up dining bills in excess of £20,000 a year - similar to figures revealed by the Guardian last month for the retiring auditor general, Sir John Bourn.

Whoever wins the Democratic ticket gets my vote, period. My guess is that will be Sen. Clinton. I also believe that she will win, and that she'll be a better than average president. (She could be a great one, if she can jettison Rahm & Co.)
On the other hand, I know a few progressive women who do not like Hillary at all (one is my brilliant daughter, who thinks the senator doesn't really have any beliefs.) These women will presumably vote for the senator, but they won't much like it.
To be sure, those afraid of ovaries in the White House (probably 95% of whom are men) will vote against her.
Scotland pays its own way despite its depiction as a spendthrift nation abusing the generosity of English taxpayers, according to a new analysis of government spending. And far from receiving an unfair proportion of the tax pot, the breakdown shows that Scotland gets less public spending per head than Northern Ireland or London.
Tax revenues from Scotland almost match the country's £49.2bn a year public spending - although only if all North Sea oil and gas revenues are attributed to Edinburgh, a controversial allocation.

Cambridge University's oldest college has told pupils they shall not go to the ball once every two years, because they have failed to achieve academic excellence.
The Peterhouse College May ball is held in June, normally biennially, but this year students have been told the event will now take place every three years. Peterhouse, with 250 students the university's smallest college, was placed second-bottom in an academic ranking of the colleges.
A spokesman for the university said: "It was decided to hold it [the May ball] once every three years so that every undergraduate gets the chance to attend once. Academic performance was a factor but the main thing was disruption to college life and financial risk."

In fact, speaking of menoapause, when I was in 8th grade, in a civics class we were having a debate about whether women should be able to be president.
And some guys argued that women old enough to be president would be going through menopause, which would make them unbalanced and likely to start a nuclear war.
Okay, this was the early 70's, and that story should be quaint and funny, but how long until we hear some "serious" people in DC saming the same shit?

During the Soviet era, it was common for dissidents to be labeled as crazy and subjected to "therapy". Often people who were targeted for this treatment did have some strange ideas: for example Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was a religious nut with all sorts of fringe ideas. The intent of the Soviet propagandists was to make dissent itself an indication of mental illness or kookiness. Now our media tells us that UFO believing and vegan Dennis Kucinich is crazy and unelectable and support for him would be wasting ones vote. And they tell us that in a field where all the other Republican candidates insist that the Iraq war is a success, that evolution is a lie, that torture is moral, Ron Paul, who has strange ideas about the UN is the crazy one. Sure.
Scotland Yard yesterday faced fresh controversy after it emerged that the man accidentally shot by police during an anti-terrorism raid in east London last year has claimed armed officers again threatened to shoot him and subjected him to racist abuse during a second recent incident.
Mohammed Abdul Kahar, 23, who was shot in the shoulder during a raid by police on his home in Forest Gate in 2006, says he and his brother Abul Koyair, 20, were stopped by armed police with one officer shouting "shoot him, shoot him".
The allegations come as the Metropolitan police commissioner Sir Ian Blair battles to save his job after his force was found guilty on Thursday of "catastrophic" failings leading to the shooting dead of Jean Charles de Menezes in July 2005.

Gawd, Rudy! is a clod:
The only leading Republican candidate to condemn each of the practices outright has been Sen. John McCain of Arizona, a former prisoner of war who was tortured in a North Vietnamese prison. On Friday, McCain strongly criticized his rivals and cited their lack of wartime experience, saying they "chose to do other things when this nation was fighting its wars."
Giuliani shot back, saying McCain had "never run a city, never run a state, never run a government."
So, because McStain's never run any of those things, torture is good?

http://www.showbizspy.com/2007/1...ry-on-drinking/
Troubled British singer Amy Winehouse has revealed that she has no intention of curbing her excessive drinking habit - and insists that life is “too short” for her to amend ways.
She said: “Life’s short - just do it. I’ve made a lot of mistakes.
“I always say I don’t regret things and I don’t say sorry, but I do really. I believe strongly in fate. I believe that everything happens for a reason.”
The ‘Rehab’ singer, who was arrested in Norway last week for possession of cannabis admits she drinks to overcome her insecurities.
Amy revealed on her new DVD documentary titled ‘I Told You I Was Trouble’: “I’m quite an insecure person. I’m very insecure about the way I look. I mean, I’m a musician I’m not a model. The more insecure I feel, the more I drink.
I'm reminded often these days of 'A Sound of Thunder', the Ray Bradbury story in which a time traveler, observing dinosaurs way back whe, steps on a butterfly and produces undesirable changes in the world to which he returns, including the election of a dangerous man to high office.
It seems to me that our timeline was hijacked on November 22, 1963, and hasn't been the same since...

If anyone needs more convincing, please watch the above video as Donna eloquently decimates Al Wynn over Iraq, the repeal of the estate tax, bankruptcy, Schaivo, protecting oil and gas companies and other regressive votes that have supported George Bush and kept ordinary Americans from getting health care.
It’s just been announced that Emily’s List is stepping up to the plate, both in supporting Donna and challenging Pelosi and the inside-the-beltway establishment.
Please welcome Donna in the comments, and join with us in giving to her campaign today."

"ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - Gen. Pervez Musharraf declared a state of emergency in Pakistan on Saturday, suspending the constitution, replacing the chief justice before a crucial Supreme Court ruling on his future as president, and cutting communications in the capital.
Pakistan's main opposition leader, Benezir Bhutto, flew back to the country from Dubai and was sitting in an airplane at Karachi's airport, waiting to see if she would be arrested or deported, a spokesman said. Dozens of paramilitary troops surrounded her house.
Seven of the 18 Supreme Court judges immediately condemned the emergency, which suspended the current constitution. Police blocked entry to the Supreme Court building and later took the chief justice and other judges away in a convoy, witnesses said.
The government halted all television transmissions in major cities other than state-controlled Pakistan TV. Telephone service in the capital, Islamabad, was cut."

You're too late, we did that Jan 20, 1981.
and then came the Viet Nam Conflict.
I sometimes wonder if the assassination of Robert Kennedy was actually more historically significant.
I think the horror that is the USA today stems largely from the election of Richard Nixon in 1968.
He really got the ball rolling, and the corrupt GOP scumbags that he brought in with him (including the likes of Karl Rove and Fox News head Roger Ailes) have been busily undermining the constitution ever since.
If RFK isn't assassinated, Nixon likely loses.
No Nixon, and there is no precedent for unchecked and utterly corrupt presidential power for folks like Reagan and Bush I and II to try and top using folks who worked for Nixon, or were deciples of people who worked with Nixon.
Remember when Kerik held that presser in front of his Soprano-esque McMansion? I was laughing my ass off.
He's as clueless as Jessica Seinfeld, who sent Oprah Winfrey $20,000 of Christian Laboutin shoes as a thank you gift. She ought to get together with Graspy Little Judi Nathan. They can compare notes.

Sirhan Sirhan has a special place in hell, just for enabling Nixon to be president.

Running against Nixon for President wasn't healthy. It usually would get a guy shot.

Erm.....
Karl Rove was 18 in 1968.
I don't think he was doing much for Nixon.
"He was the youngest jail warden in the history of Passaic County! Put him in charge of security for the entire country! It's a slam dunk!"

How did they know you bought beef?
He did get rid of the pee smell.
No he didn't.
I think I'll go to Mickey D's, they haven't had meat for years.
As far as I know, no one has gone right from being a mayor to the White House.

If you haven't read The Omnivore's Dilemma, then do. After reading it I've had to totally rethink the food I buy. Still in "transition" mode at this point until I can find all the stuff I typically buy and get a freezer set up. But seriously, read the book.
And Kucinich was mayor of Cleveland. Case closed.
That's where I was headed, you freak.
So if closing time is at 2:00 AM, do you get an extra hour?

Speaking of CNN, what Digby said:
"I think the debate is over, folks. Every time they normalize state sanctioned sadism, from tasering to waterboarding, we are one step closer to fully accepting a police state. That's how they do it. It never happens over night. It happens one taboo at a time.
"We are a torture culture, immoral, vulgar and profane. We actually think it's fun. If college boys and reporters can laugh about it, how bad can it be? Thanks Dick and George."

You owe her a coke.

If you have one of those "discount" card they scan, they know everything you buy.

Yes, unfortunately. Band has to play an extra hour.

Market forces under the Bush junta don't seem to be working very well. Or perhaps the consumer is demanding tainted meat?
Okay, I'm heading out for a bit. Y'all beehive. Or behave -- whichever Jerry Seinfeld will pay you to do.

So if closing time is at 2:00 AM, do you get an extra hour?
No, I don't think so. It becomes 2AM, so you close, and you can't reopen. Then it magically becomes 1AM.

According to USDA, which will not allow small growers willing to pay to test their meat to label the meat free of mad-cow, this is exactly what the consumer is demanding.
Those smiley faces are eights.
I take precautions with hamburger.
You get used to the taste of Lysol over time.
I am so glad we found the Amish market that has three butchers.
In the middle of a city of eight million people the store was able identify who bought what meat when. Hah. Some people laughed at me when I would only buy w bashing books with cash.

I understand that but still find it kind of creepy. We use the store card all the time.
If I can afford it, I buy beef from the Eastern range-land of the state, that's never had antibiotics, and never has spinal/neural tissue. It's quite lovely, and requires no Lysol.

You don't get the free turkey or ham around the holidays without the card, either.

I don't care if Kroger knows what I like and buy; I never buy anything remotely racy or questionable there, and their coupon printers know what to give cents off on.

Yeah, The United States government has succesfully administered its Social Security program for 70 years. And Wall Street companies are constantly plagued by executive fraud, malfeasance, hostile takeovers, and pension defaults.
So Shrub is 100% correct in advocating letting the private sector ensure that our seniors don't starve to death.
I suspect the Pakistani Civil War/Meltdown will require more attention.
You people scoffed when I made the comparison...

Comment from Digby's place:
Read Scott Horton in Harpers:
"... former president of the Argentine bar came up to me. “You must fight this with every ounce of energy you possess,” he said. “Because in the end, you will find that this torture is not about intelligence gathering, or ticking bombs or any other such nonsense. It is a talisman. A talisman of power. A government that can torture and do it with impunity can do anything. No law stands in its way. The very idea of the rule of law crumbles into dust. It means brutal tyranny.”

In my opinion that says it all, why we should never allow torture, not just because it is illegal, or just because it does not work, but because it is an illegal stretch of executive power. If an Attorney General will not stand up to a President, say that such actions are illegal, and get the President to stop them, then he is on the side of torture.

If single female voters do mobilize in large numbers next year, America after 2008 will become as unlike America today as America in 1980 changed post Reagan. If the so called religious right continues to implode, the change will happen even faster.
