GravatarBush signs SCHIP expansion. “President Bush on Saturday signed legislation that extends a popular children’s health insurance program after twice vetoing attempts to expand it,” AP reports. “The extension of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program is expected to provide states with enough money to cover those enrolled through March 2009.” 1:21 pm

Athenae -

My only hope is that Obama is crafting his approach from the GWB playbook - giving verbal deference to governing from the center, but after cameras and microphones are turned off, steering toward the pole.

Thing is, W (and other wingers since Reagan in Philadelphia, MS) always give coded messages to the base - messages that fly under the radar of the MSM. Can anyone point to such code existing in any Obama script?


Gravatarwell, benazir bhutto two months ago said he was dead.

so who knows?

she talked about how sections of her country (interview with david frost) are basically in the hands of islamists.


GravatarBenazir Bhutto did say in that David Frost interview that bin Laden is dead. It came out very fluently.

GravatarRoadmaster, the only coded message I was aware of from Obama was to the anti-gay bigots via McClurkin, but I don't hate the guy, so if he is the nominee, I hope you're right.

It's not a losing strategy, that's for sure. I just don't like hearing politicians I dearly hope will be partisan as hell dissing partisanship, because I feel like it buys into the whole "all politicians suck and are mean, so elect me because I'm not like everybody else" false crapola.

I'm supporting Dodd, so it's not like I'm in this for the cupcakes at the victory bash.

A.


GravatarOBL probably dead (I say Bhutto was right), but without the occasional FEAR FEAR TERROR TERROR THEY'RE COMING TO KILL US ALL!, how else will the GOP shore up its base?


Gravatarthe world is far murkier than Beach Boys records ever let on...


GravatarJoe Klein quotes Benazir Bhutto as blaming the Saudis for funding/fomenting unrest in Pakistan. Funny how everyone in the ME sees the Saudi royal family as bearing a large part of the blame for rebels/islamists/whatever, but they never get mentioned by anyone in gov't, hardly anyone in the Press. Klein quotes it as if it's something "everyone knows", but I don't remember seeing him discuss Saudi influnce much in his Iraq columns


GravatarHopefully when W goes on his world tour next year someone from the foreign press will ask him straight up: Where is Bin Laden? Why haven't you found him and brought him to justice like you said you would?

The White House press corps certainly won't.

GravatarOsama Bin Laden being dead or alive, or the necessity of 'getting him' has always looked looked like a search for the holy grail, pointless, and unlikely to get any results. Just a goal post to show the rubes. If Al Quaeda was centrally controlled, don't you think substantive evidence of the lines of command would have been found yet?

GravatarThe other thing that drives me nuts about the Bhutto/Pakistan (and Iraq) reporting: The total lack of context about what AQ is, how it's organized.

It's not the duty of the press to give us information. That's what they tell us all the time. Their duty is just to report on the propaganda they get, from both sides.

But I think there's a deeper reason for the lack of information. It would help to dispel the fear and that is not something the gov. wants.


Gravatarby the way has anybody done dna 'ancestry' testing for general information (infotainment?) purposes?

spent the dough on it?


GravatarHe just wants to wish everyone a happy new year.


GravatarThe total lack of context about what AQ is, how it's organized.

I don't think it is or even exists as an organization. It serves the same purpose as the speculative art of middle ages map makers, 'here be sea monsters and dragons'.

While the whole time they didn't have a clue what was in those parts of the map.

It's just another name for scary brown people.


GravatarNote that BushBoy refers to a 1929 Supreme Court case to establish that he can use the pocket veto; while a 1938 case says Congress is in session whether one or two houses are in session.

See Phoenix Woman's comments quoted at end of thread below.

Something is up in BushCo Bizarro World--and the Dems better get on this thing coz Bushies don't do anything without a powergrabbing end in mind.

Now, maybe John Roberts told Dear Leader he can choose any court case he wants, but usually the latest one takes precedence, right?

What are they up to? As I said below, ain't it fun living in the former Soviet Union?

AQ and Bush/Cheney/GOP definitely all benefit equally from the lazy use of "al Qaeda" to describe "scary brown people", that's for sure.

A discussion of Charlie Daniels here the other night led me over to his "soapbox" on his website (not for the faint of heart). Amid his standard ramblings about Sean Penn and syrupy tributes to the brave soldiers defending Pascagoula from invasion by suicide bombers from Basra, was an open letter to Reid and Pelosi, challenging them to defund "the troops" if they really want to end the war, but they'd better be ready for the consequences when Iran sends al Qaeda to invade the Heartland.

GravatarOn Saturday, President Bush scored a triple victory when he quietly signed a bill extending the State Children's Health Insurance Program (S-CHIP) through March 2009. First, the President teed up "socialized medicine" as the definitive 2008 GOP talking point in response to any new health care initiatives coming from the Democratic Party. Second, he added another win for the GOP campaign of obstructionism, blocking Democratic successes at any cost in the hope of painting Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi as leaders of a "do-nothing" Congress. And last, George W. Bush kept intact his consistent record of fierce opposition to the popular children's health insurance program dating back to his days as Governor of Texas. And as in Texas, he went on to claim credit for it.

For the details, see:

By HOLLY RAMER – 18 hours ago

MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Republican presidential hopeful John McCain joked Friday that given his campaign's ups and downs, he's shown the stamina of the last man on Earth.

"I've been declared dead in this campaign on five or six occasions. I won't refer to a recent movie I saw, but I think I am legend," he told reporters, referring to the film in which Will Smith stars as the last man on Earth.'

GravatarCorrection of the year:
"Following the portrait of Tony and Cherie Blair published on 21 April in the Independent Saturday magazine, Ms Blair’s representatives have told us that she was friendly with but never had a relationship with Carole Caplin of the type suggested in the article. They want to make it clear, which we are happy to do, that Ms Blair “has never shared a shower with Ms Caplin, was not introduced to spirit guides or primal wrestling by Ms Caplin (or anyone else), and did not have her diary masterminded by Ms Caplin.”

GravatarDemocrats:

(Angus Reid Global Monitor) - There is no clear frontrunner in the race for the Democratic Party’s United States presidential nomination in the Granite State, according to a review of the last four publicly released voting intention surveys. 33.8 per cent of decided voters would support New York senator Hillary Rodham Clinton in January’s primary, while 33.2 per cent would back Illinois senator Barack Obama.

Former North Carolina senator John Edwards is third with 20.1 per cent, followed by New Mexico governor Bill Richardson with 6.1 per cent, Ohio congressman Dennis Kucinich with 3.5 per cent, Delaware senator Joe Biden with 2.7 per cent, and Connecticut senator Chris Dodd with 0.6 per cent.

GravatarI'm not the biggest edwards booster here (that would take alot) but hey I just got two e-mails from Edwards!

He writes to me:

"We must meet our moral test as Americans and pass on a better world to our children. But, to do that, we need a president who will stand up to the powerful interests that have taken over our government, a president who will fight every single day to give the American people their voice back, so we can have a strong middle class and build a better world for our children.

That is why I am running -- and that is why I'm asking for your support right now at this critical time."

GravatarCorrespondent to Digby posits that BushBoy's "veto" of the military bill has little to do with possilbe lawsuits against Saddam Hussein--instead, it deal with intelligence.

http://digbysblog.blogspot.com/2...- wondering.html

Re: your post "Where Will It End?" I suspect that the key to the pocket veto has nothing to do with Iraqi assets. Rather, it is contained a little line buried in the last paragraph of the Memorandum of Disapproval: "... I continue to have serious objections to other provisions of this bill, including section 1079 relating to intelligence matters . . ."

What is in 1079 you ask? A provision requiring the Director of National Intelligence to make available to the Congressional intelligence committees, upon the request of the chair or ranking minority member, "any existing intelligence assessment, report, estimate, or legal opinion," within certain conditions. See here.(I don't know if that link will continue to work...but you can requery

are you still in T.O. moe?
and if so what 'section' (no business name required) of the city is your bar located?


GravatarAgain, from Phoenix Woman--

There's no need to gavel the House into session to block Bush's claimed "pocket veto":

Wright v. United States (1938-) explicitly states that if even only ONE house is in session, Congress is NOT, repeat, NOT in recess for the purposes of pocket veto:



The first question is whether 'the Congress by their adjournment' prevented the return of the bill by the President within the period of ten days allowed for that purpose.
'The Congress' did not adjourn. The Senate alone was in recess. The Constitution creates and defines 'the Congress.' It consists 'of a Senate and House of Representatives.' Article 1, 1. The Senate is not 'the Congress.'
The context of the clause itself points the distinction. It speaks of the 'House of Representatives' and of the 'Senate,' respectively. It speaks of the return of the bill, if the President does not approve it, 'to that House in which it shall have originated'; of reconsideration by 'that House,' and, in case two thirds of 'that House' agree to pass the bill, of sending it together with the President's objections to the 'other House' and, if approved by two thirds of 'that House,' the bill is to become a law. Provision is made for the taking of the votes of 'both Houses' and for the recording of the names of those voting for and against the bill on the Journal 'of each House respectively.'
Then, after this precise use of terms and careful differentiation, the concluding clause describes not an adjournment of either House as a separate body, or an adjournment of the House in which the bill shall have originated, but the adjournment of 'the Congress.' It cannot be supposed that the framers of the Constitution did not use this expression with deliberation or failed to appre- [302 U.S. 583, 588] ciate its plain significance. The reference to the Congress is manifestly to the entire legislative body consisting of both Houses. Nowhere in the Constitution are the words 'the Congress' used to describe a single House.


This is obscure as hell, but it's established case law. Reid needs to hold Bush to it, or he can skip the whole pro-forma business.

He apparently peaked at about 112 lbs, though that was probably a little overweight for his frame--100 seems to be the ideal. I'm hoping he will put on a little weight, but that might not happen. He's got very little muscle mass on his back legs, presumably because of his degenerative nerve thingy, but he's also skinny so I think he can at least fatten up. I'm sure he hadn't been eating well for a year or so, and pretty much was on a hunger strike while in the pound.

GravatarLeaving Iraq will make America safer
Surge success can't mask political failure By Barack Obama
For the Monitor


The only way we can press Iraq's leaders to reconcile is to make it clear that we are leaving - otherwise they will continue to use our presence to put off hard compromises. That is why I have repeatedly called for a clear timetable for the removal of our forces from Iraq. The quickest, responsible pace for withdrawal is 1 to 2 combat brigades each month, which means we could remove all of our combat brigades within 16 months.

We should leave enough troops in Iraq to protect our diplomats, and we should have a counter-terrorism force stationed in Iraq that could launch targeted strikes on al-Qaida if it tries to establish a base in Iraq.


His plan sounds like Clintons.

Just end the war. Bring home all the troops. Leave no residual troops behind to launch "targeted strikes" - that's continuing the occupation. UGH!!

GravatarI know a few Canadians who've had just the right kind of bacon.


Gravatarso if i come to Eschacon, you will place us in a different room?

It will be larger, with less people, and you'll have universal health care.


Gravatar"emotionally congruent"???????? Run, Sinfonian, run! What does that even mean?

I agree.

Anyone that tells me that I'm "not that bad" is someone I want to smack.


GravatarYou may not "be so bad"??

Well, to be fair, that was out of context. I'm quite sure that was facetious/teasing. It's a compliment.


GravatarThis afternoon, the witches watched Some Like It Hot. That is just about as perfect a movie as was ever made.

That sounds like reason for worry. Anytime chimpy makes something his "top priority," it's bound to go up in flames.

She'll probably cut your balls off with a dull knife on your next date, so you should break up with her. Then give me her number.


GravatarSinfonian, I love that you are a celebrity. You can talk about it anytime you like as far as I'm concerned.


GravatarIt is quite possible to simultaneously believe that Benazir Bhutto's career was considerably less perfect than her public image, and also that her assassination is likely to have nothing but bad consequences for Pakistan and quite a few other places.

Please just say it and quit pasting links. Sheesh.


Gravatar"You're referring to BushCheney America, right?"

You know that is the problem now a days.

My mother showed up today unannounced. We silently suffer through her visits.

I pulled a Bush/Cheney to the Hague line. Expected that would tick her off since she has a conservative bent and chase her out the door. Instead she nodded in agreement, laughed and kept talking. We went back to silently suffering.


GravatarThanks, mer, but I've a feeling most here don't share your charitable attitude.

I don't even watch game shows. Not worth discussing.

Now, what about biofuels?

GravatarI thought it was amusing that the Pakistani government released a transcript only of the alleged Al Qaeda phone conversation taking credit for killing Bhutto.

That's kind of like cutting a photo of a supermodel out of a magazine to show people a "photo of my girlfriend".

That is precisely why I discouraged my mother from moving to a nearby town.

I think he visited recently. I was in bed reading, with the two kittehs on the foot of the bed, when I heard someone batting at the particle accelerator in the living room.

Made me smile.


GravatarI kind of like Jeopardy. There's not much in the way of game shows here (except for that millionaire quiz show) so I watch it when I get home in the summer. All reruns, of course.
