U.S. Sen. John Warner declines to endorse Jim Gilmore
RICHMOND
Retiring U.S. Sen. John Warner on Saturday voiced disappointment in fellow Republican Jim Gilmore’s efforts to succeed him and declined to endorse him.
Instead, Warner suggested that he may wind up backing Democrat Mark Warner in the Senate race. The two Warners are not related.

Tina Fey 08
The best war movie ever is War and Peace.
7.5 hours
Directed by Sergei Bondarchuk
Filmed between 1962 and 1967.
The Battle of Borodino was recreated as per the actual historical battle with hundreds of thousands of Red Army extras dressed as per the original reality, and the whole set of battle scenes was filmed at, funnily enough, a place called Borodino. In Russia. They say that at inflation-adjusted PPP exchange rates, it was the most expensive movie ever made. I've seen it twice (not dubbed, thank God, but with subtitles, also thank God since I don't know more than half a dozen or so words of Russian).
Be careful. I could go on all night about it.
Based on a novel by one Leo Tolstoy, apparently. Seeing the film the first time made me read the book while in my late teens. I recommend it, and the book.
Talking of somewhat outre Soviet movies, anybody here ever see The Color of Pomegranates? A very astonishing piece of work, imo.
I also urge everyone to see
Just figured out why DWD thought there were ghosts in "Castle Keep." He's thinking of another war movie, "The Keep."

I love how Tina riffs on Palin's own words.
i mean, if we can have a senator Franken in 08, we should get a Tina Fey in '16

no no no it has to be that movie about the white prison guard who works at the southern prison where a guy is going to be executed and he has sex with the african american woman who lives in his small town.
i'm getting a block on the name of both the actors.
Speaking of gibberish and Palin, somebody pulled this out of the transcript of her "do-over" interview with Carl Cameron on Fox (via digby):
"As we send our young men and women overseas in a war zone to fight for democracy and freedoms, including freedom of the press, we've really got to have a mutually beneficial relationship here with those fighting the freedom of the press, and then the press, though not taking advantage and exploiting a situation, perhaps they would want to capture and abuse the privilege. We just want truth, we want fairness, we want balance."

Okay, Tina Fey is completely adorable as Palin.

Hundreds of people remain missing three weeks after Ike's assault on Texas. Local and city officials are no longer keeping their own count of missing residents, and the estimate varies wildly from one agency to another.
According to the nonprofit Laura Recovery Center, about 300 people are missing. Of those, about 200 from Galveston. However, the number "goes up and down by the minute" as people call in to remove or add names, cautioned executive director Bob Walcutt.

A Fish called Wanda had my favorite sex scene.
"Wanda, do you have any idea what it's like being English? Being so correct all the time, being so stifled by this dread of, of doing the wrong thing, of saying to someone "Are you married?" and hearing "My wife left me this morning," or saying, uh, "Do you have children?" and being told they all burned to death on Wednesday. You see, Wanda, we'll all terrified of embarrassment. That's why we're so... dead. Most of my friends are dead, you know, we have these piles of corpses to dinner. But you're alive, God bless you, and I want to be, I'm so fed up with all this. I want to make love with you, Wanda. I'm a good lover - at least, used to be, back in the early 14th century.

randing his opponent as “erratic in a crisis,” Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) is preempting plans by Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to portray him as having sinister connections to controversial Chicagoans.
Obama officials call it political jujitsu – turning the attacks back on the attacker.
McCain officials had said early in the weekend that they plan to begin advertising after Tuesday’s debate that will tie Obama to convicted money launderer Tony Rezko and former Weathermen radical William Ayers.
But Obama isn’t waiting to respond. His campaign is going up Monday on national cable stations with a scathing ad saying: “Three quarters of a million jobs lost this year. Our financial system in turmoil. And John McCain? Erratic in a crisis. Out of touch on the economy. No wonder his campaign wants to change the subject.
“Turn the page on the financial crisis by launching dishonorable, dishonest ‘assaults’ against Barack Obama. Struggling families can't turn the page on this economy, and we can't afford another president who is this out of touch.”
Then Obama says: “I'm Barack Obama and I approved this message.”
Huh?...what? Oh, my bad, sex, not ex.

This looks good. From Politico:
Dems could hit 60 Senate seats
Jim VandeHei, Mike Allen
Sat Oct 4, 6:18 PM ET
The possibility that Democrats will build a muscular, 60-seat Senate majority is looking increasing plausible, with new polls showing a powerful surge for the party’s candidates in Minnesota, Kentucky and other states.
A poll out Friday shows Sen. Norm Coleman could now easily lose his Minnesota seat to comedian-turned-candidate Al Franken. A Colorado race that initially looked like a nail-biter has now broken decisively for the Democrats. A top official in the McCain camp told us Sen. Elizabeth Dole is virtually certain to lose in conservative North Carolina.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky has seen his race tighten dangerously close over the past week — and Democrats are considering moving more money into the state very soon. And there is even talk that Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss is beatable in conservative Georgia after backing the economic bailout package opposed by many voters.

Halle Berry & Billy Bob Thornton.
OK, the plus is, Halle Berry butt naked, getting the everlovin' bejeebus fucked out of her.
The negative is that it's Billy Bob Thornton, butt naked.

ExtenZe is a herbal nutritional supplement manufactured by Dish Direct Incorporated AKA Maximizer Health Products Incorporated. The manufacturer claims ExtenZe promotes "natural male enhancement", which is a euphemism for penis enlargement, increased duration and firmness of erection and increased sexual stamina. Early infomercials for the ExtenZe pill featured a studio audience and porn star Ron "The Hedgehog" Jeremy.

In 2006 ExtenZe agreed to pay the Orange County district attorney’s office $300,000 in civil penalties for unfair business practices and false advertising. Susan Kang Schroeder of the DA office said the company couldn’t back up its claim that the pills caused users’ penises to grow 27%.

The Pentagon agency said Israel wants to buy an initial 25 F-35s in the Conventional Take-Off and Landing (CTOL) configuration, with an option to buy an additional 50 F-35 CTOL or Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft.
All aircraft would be equipped with either the F-135 engine built by Pratt and Whitney, a unit of United Technologies, or the F-136 engine being developed by General Electric Co. and Britain's Rolls-Royce.
Lockheed Martin said it welcomes the decision. "As the first potential foreign military sale of the F-35, this would be an important first step in expanding interest in the Joint Strike Fighter beyond the U.S. government and eight international F-35 partner nations," said Lockheed spokesman Tom Jurkowsky.
Earlier in September the Pentagon approved up to $330 million in three separate arms deals for Israel.

http://www.vimeo.com/1772042
Sorry if this came up before, but...
As a casino gambler, McCain is likely to have lost more than he won. But by not reporting his winnings, the different percentage calculations built into the tax calculation are thrown off, and if he gambled much at all, he has underpaid his tax. The amount of understatement of tax may be minimal, but that's not the point.
The real purpose of preparing his tax return and omitting the gambling winnings is so that people would not know how much he gambled. If he won $200,000 playing craps in Las Vegas, it would make a difference in the way voters viewed his suitability as a presidential candidate.
There are circumstances under which the tax returns could be correct, such as McCain gambled once in 2007, not at all in 2006, and lost everything the one time he gambled. Such an explanation is unlikely in light of McCain's alleged long history of gambling.
I think we are looking at tax returns calculated to hide an aspect of the candidate. My 35 years of experience in taxes tells me these tax returns are wrong, and we do not know the true scope of McCain's gambling or of his potential obligations to gambling enterprises.
Wow, looks like Commander Swift is there at the reading.

Do you have a good pain specialist?
Uncle B,
Trying any heat or cold on the muscles?
"Good God let's just stand back and let this trainwreck unfold."
yeah.
and why they thought Palin was a good idea still is crazy
So not a McCain commercial, but Bud light.
The Pentagon's been on a money-powered merry-go-round for a long, long, long time....

Brass gets polished to Major, goes to contractor for a couple years, returns to work with Joint Chiefs and Pentagon. What could possibly go wrong with this arrangement?
Uncle B, because they can really fuck with you mentally.
I can't take them. I freak out.
Talking of stats, the reason I'm so drunk is because I can't believe how right I was about how inflated the Fed's balance sheet turned out this week.
All the smart economics bloggers are talking about it.
It's unprecedented in solar system history, that's all I'm sayin'...
And now for a cigar. My sister's gonna smuggle in some Cubans for me next weekend.
Cuban cigars, chaps.

Very dangerous.
"Do you have a good pain specialist?"

Most of the pundits, even the right leaning ones, are calling that decision a "Hail Mary."
Just the kind of instincts we need after eight years of Chimpy.

They sucked, and the O was a tomb.
They had a good run during the Gary Carter era - 1979-82.

Don't forget Andre Dawson in his prime.
would have won a lo if the Phillies and Pirates weren't very good then too
Then there was Fernando Valenzuela shutting them down in game 5 of the 1981 NL championship series.
That was the ultimate heart breaker.
It might have been the Expos beating up on the Yankees instead of the Dodgers.
"because they can really fuck with you mentally."
AH
So this might not be from the fight
that's good to know
I still feel like I have the flu though and that did start immediately after

I call: bailed-out, no take backs!!!
Pete Rose is a dick, but he needs to be in Cooperstown.
Fuck, Ty Cobb used to charge up into the stands.
Blodge, no concussion?
Son of a bitch, the Cubs strand 'em again. I'm going to hang a black mourning ribbon on my Cubs flag in the morning.
And we'd won the lottery to buy NLCS tickets, too -- and reserved a pair at Wrigley for next Friday night!!!
Uncle B, I always feel that way on steroids. And as if I'm going crazy. I can't think.
Uncle Blodge,
I'm sure you'll get your mind back, but it's the bod that's going to determine when. Just think of yourself as prostaglandin soup for now.
"It might have been the Expos beating up on the Yankees instead of the Dodgers."
might have been indeed
the only time the Expos were close to winning something, the playoffs were canceled because of a players' strike.

Bo, thanks for the seltzer and the foot massage.
You know, I was okay while I had to be up and running and managing, but as soon as it got quiet again, it started to slam into me.
Uncle B, I always feel that way on steroids. And as if I'm going crazy. I can't think.
For me, muscle relaxants do the same thing. Broke some ribs about ten years ago and after three days of those, 2 + 2 = was kind of pushing it....
"Blodge, no concussion?"
No
kid never laid a hand on me. it's just that bullrushing an angry 15 year old is probably something I can't do anymore without cost
Where's the vaunted swarms of 527's filling the air with slime and deceit? And the Mighty Wurlitzer, amplifying and focusing the attacks, and the R surrogate suiciders, where?
I think there must have been some falling out between Rove and his hatchlings with McCain. Maybe back around the "won't debate" move, Rove may have cut them loose for insufferable stupidity, and now they'll just spiral, crash and burn without the final smokescreen flourish and vote-stealing. It's too late. They're losing control.

I knew bart giamatti did but I had no idea he had an actors son
I knew someone who worked for the cubs (used to sing "root root root for the home team if they don't win they're the cubs") and he told em that the word inside baseball is they had a lot more on rose than they used and if we knew half of it we'd not wonder why rose was locked up
despite that I owe him one for 1980 - for catching that pop up that boone dropped

And now go back and look for all of the background stuff. The backward couple on the wall, for instance. We found little things for several viewings, though it's been so long now that it's all like an old shoe.

Good movies I watched today.
Mogambo (Ford) on TCM

Quite Duel (Kurasawa) on DVD
And somehow I managed to accomplish some chores, too.

The 100% negative ad buy that McCain's making is an admission that Palin flopped. His campaign's been collapsing for the past month.
