I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
good morning
good morning to you!
all 60 of you
So, this is Old Yeller's replacement?
Liberals are really dumb. They think the President is constrained by laws. Bush answers to a higher law and has a mission. Do not get in his way or I pity you.
Nah, Old Yeller is still around.
Sometimes.
This preemptive action taken by the Bush administration on the eve of the ‘Sicko’ premiere in Cannes led our attorneys to fear for the safety of our film, noting that Secretary Paulson may try to claim that the content of the movie was obtained through a violation of the trade embargo that our country has against Cuba and the travel laws that prohibit average citizens of our free country from traveling to Cuba. (The law does not prohibit anyone from exercising their first amendment right of a free press and documentaries are protected works of journalism.)
I was floored when our lawyers told me this. “Are you saying they might actually confiscate our movie?” “Yes,” was the answer. “These days, anything is possible. Even if there is just a 20 percent chance the government would seize our movie before Cannes, does anyone want to take that risk?”
Certainly not. So there we were last week, spiriting a duplicate master negative out of the country just so no one from the government would take it from us. (Seriously, I can’t believe I just typed those words! Did I mention that I’m an American, and this is America and NO ONE should ever have to say they had to do such a thing?) --Michael Moore
Sigh.
huh.. what..? Saturday?
tim russert has no horn to honk.
Michael Moore is an America hating communist. I hope his pro Castro and anti-free enterprise film is confiscated and that he is thrown in jail for life. That should shut him up.
"So, this is Old Yeller's replacement?"
Apparently. Useful for insomniacs (like me) but curious as to what the use is otherwise.

OK do the same people come up from below? I posted below and then could not get on. If anyone responded to me-sorry. Will I ever be able to see? As I am not as tech savvy as I should be, what the hell happened and how should I avoid this in the future? Floating around in space outside the blog was an experience I may have enjoyed 20 yrs ago (while a little supplemented) but not now.

The problem is that "anti-American" is alliterative, you should change how you refere to your country. "Anti-Canadian" doesn't roll off the tongue as easily, so people don't say it very often.

But other than being a pimp and a bad manager, did he really do anything wrong (as opposed to not doing enough right) at the World Bank?
I ask because one of the reasons Andrew Young has been supportive of him, is because of Wolfowitz's apparently effective work in Africa. I won't say it's sincere, but it apparently accomplished something positive.
I think a large part of the reaction IS because of the war, and not the girlfriend hypocrisy. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

he had a massive case of "knowing enough to get himself in real trouble". If you actually read what the instructions say ALL THE WAY TO THE END you'd probably be OK.

EkCenTriK: I am curious about the difference between the scooter and the motorcycle? In looking at pricing, it seems to me that for the same money, a motorcycle is just as much a possible. So what would sway a person to a scooter?
Generally, with a scooter, you have no shifting (less distraction), upright seating, and a step-through design. No doubt, motorcycles with similar engine sizes are a LOT cheaper, but they tend to be the crotch-rocket sportbike design, where the riding position is akin to laying on one's belly over the frame of the bike.

Well, he had such a lousy management style that he pissed off a huge number of World Bank employees. He brought in his aides from the Pentagon and used them to run interference on everything. He isolated those managers who disagreed with him. He insisted that money designated for other nations (especially those who wouldn't allow flyover rights for the US military) be poured into Iraq.
The investigation run by the bank's board showed all sorts of problems, so I think Schorr is being either disingenuous or untruthful.
Let me get this right . . . in some people's minds it is perfectly okay for a man to hire his MISTRESS for hundreds of thousands of dollars a year for a job over other applicants and then take her supervision out of the normal channels. . .

Friday, December 6, 2002 Posted: 2:59 PM EST (1959 GMT) SIOUX FALLS, South Dakota (AP) -- A man who made a remark about a "burning Bush" during the president's March 2001 trip to Sioux Falls was sentenced Friday to 37 months in prison.
Humphreys said he got into a barroom discussion in nearby Watertown with a truck driver. A bartender who overheard the conversation realized the president was to visit Sioux Falls the next day and told police Humphreys talked about a "burning Bush" and the possibility of someone pouring a flammable liquid on Bush and lighting it.
"I said God might speak to the world through a burning Bush," Humphreys testified during his trial. "I had said that before and I thought it was funny."
Funny how theses neo-cons don't seem to care when their pet projects don't produce the results desired; they just plow ahead and damn the consequences.

I don't know the details, other than Ambassador Young has been working closely with Rwanda in recent years. And I disagree with his defense of Comblicker.
But, if any other leader of the World Bank had cut a deal for his girlfriend, would the firestorm be this bad? I don't think so.

Media Criticized Over Tenn. Slayings
By DUNCAN MANSFIELD Associated Press Writer
May 18,2007 | KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- In a powerful demonstration of the way the Internet has opened up the mainstream media to intensive second-guessing, bloggers are charging that news outlets have ignored the rape and murder of a young Knoxville couple because of the racial implications of the story.
The two victims were white; the five defendants are black.
The critics include mainstream conservatives, such as the National Review, and white supremacists. They have drawn comparisons to the Duke lacrosse rape case and wondered why the killings of Channon Christian, a 21-year-old University of Tennessee student, and her 23-year-old boyfriend Christopher Newsom are not getting the same attention from what the bloggers regard sneeringly as the liberal media.
"Oh, that's right, the victims were WHITE!" several conservative blogs have observed.

EkCenTriK: But from your comment then, there is not much difference in terms of performance for similar engines sizes etc? The rest is preference such as riding style, basic operation (as you noted on shifting) and so on.
Correct, although the CVT transmission (v-belt-driven, using a dry variator-type clutch) performs quite differently than a manual transmission, so depending on the scooter, it may not have the "hole shot" that a motorcycle will have, off the line. Of course, few practical scooter folx care about that.

Wt, not to pry - but how's the bro, and mom's pooch?
The batcounter is ignoring me. I just know it is.
That Russert horn-honking thing is the height of stupidity.
An SUV honked its horn at me yesterday, because I had the temerity to cross an intersection in front of it (we have this weird intersection by work where a city street intersects with an access road that merges with a freeway off-ramp about 1/4 block from the city street. Cars on the access road have to yield to cars coming up the ramp, and cars on the city street have a stop sign and have to yield to both. It's a busy intersection, and about the only way to get through it if you're on the city street is to jump through when you see no cars coming up the ramp and the car at the access yield sign is just starting to go.) Apparently, even though I had already waited on some 5 cars coming on the access road and another 5 coming up the ramp, Mr. SUV driver was upset that I was going to get through the intersection before he crossed it, and he honked.

For what it's worth I think I hit rock bottom on Boosh yesterday when he refused to work with the Dems on financing his fiasco. At this point the Dems need to go back to the original bill and keep sending it to him.
As I stated before, if he wanted the war to stop tomorrow, he could do this. No one person in a Democracy should be given this much power. No Democrat and no Republican: it is wrong and it is dangerous.
Fuck him.
I heard on NPR that Bremer got the CPA job instead of Wolfowitz because Bremer was considered the better manager. Yikes.
So they put him at the World Bank, where he exceeds their low opinion of his management skills.
This bunch is not to be believed.
jac, I was just reading somewhere that Wolfie's work in Africa included BushCo's ridiculous abstinence-only policy.
And there are ongoing protests against the WB's water privatization policies.
Wonder where Wolfowitz stood on that policy? Seems if he opposed it out of his vaunted concern for the poor, we'd hear about it.

Bush's 2005 Inauguration Celebration: Brought to You by Corporate America
*Updated for new numbers* January 18th, 2005 - Public Citizen has analyzed the new contribution records released by Bush's inaugural committee on Friday night. The analysis reveals that lobbyists have contributed $400,000 of the $24.9 million collected so far (an increase of $7.1 million over the last week). Thursday’s inauguration is projected to be the most expensive inauguration in the nation’s history."
Well, it's time for some breakfast. Have a good morning, bats, and I'll see all 71 of you later, I hope.

"Horn Broken - Watch For Finger"
I thought you liberal nutjob hate-mongers said that Gonzales was goint to resign last night.
I think at least half of us said that no, Gonzales is staying until he's impeached because the President of the United States is an impotent criminal who can't get anyone confirmed as Attorney General whom he can risk having in that position.
That's the way I recall the conversation.
Historian Robert Dallek sticks it to Bush --- in polite fashion
As such, Bush is now fighting both in the arena of politics and in the arena of history. Having bet his presidency on Iraq, he seems to be planning to leave the war to the next administration, which he no doubt assumes may be Democratic, and then blame it for whatever additional disarray erupts when the United States withdraws.
And here, Bush is more like Nixon than he probably appreciates. Although Nixon had privately given up on the Vietnam War early in his first term, he wanted to label Democrats as "the party of surrender." For Bush, the silver lining in Democrats' new control of Congress is the chance it gives him to shift the blame for disaster or defeat. If the war continues to go badly, the White House is increasingly arguing, it is not because of any misjudgments from Bush or Cheney, Rice or Donald H. Rumsfeld; rather, the problem will be those "cut-and-run" congressional opponents who withheld funding from the troops and fatally demoralized the gallant Iraqis.
Bush's current hope is that history will vindicate him, even if 2008 may not. If he uses LBJ and Nixon as his measuring sticks, however, he will find that history is far more likely to condemn him -- not just for manufacturing reasons to fight an unsuccessful war, and not just for bucking public opinion, but also for failing to think seriously about the past. "Nations and governments have never learned anything from history," Hegel said. Historians like to think that's not true, but there are times when it's hard to believe otherwise.
Thanks for 2006, asshat.
Thanking you in advance for 2008.
For conservatards, "patriotic" means lock-step fascist droolin', I guess.

Were you paying attention the last 2 Presidental elections?
Did you see what we did in Florida in 2000?
Did you see what we did in Ohio in 2004?
You liberals got screwed in both elections. How does that make you feel?
Just wait and see what we do in 2008.

"patriotic" means lock-step fascist droolin'
You forgot knuckle-dragging.
You liberals were put in a trick bag.
First we (The GOP) got you liberals to distrust the 'punch cards' in Florida in 2000. We knew you liberals would start screaming and sueing for e-voting after that.
And you did.
Check out the archives from the ACLU back in 2001 and 2002. The ACLU filed lawsuits all over the country demanding e-voting. That was our plan. You liberals are so stupid that you fell for it.
So, e-voting machines were put in all over America for the 2004 election. That is what we wanted. WHY?
Because we (The GOP) own the e-voting machines (Diebold). Now you liberals will never win another Presidential election. All we needed was Ohio for 2004. And we made a few program changes from Diebold HQ and 'wham' ... BUSH WON OHIO!
What happened to all of those votes in the Cleveland area? Why didn't the numbers add up?
So thank you liberals for falling for our ploy back in 2000 in Florida.
You liberals got fucked and fucked bad, and there isn't anything you can do about it.
Would one of you 84 lurkers out there give Haloscan a frying pan to the head?
'enkyew.
been a little cool the last couple of days, for mid-May (I know Litz enjoyed it, but I almost froze my gonads off waiting for a bus Thursday after work!).
Indeed I did!!!!
Historians like to think that's not true, but there are times when it's hard to believe otherwise.
And while I understand that he barely attended college, the irony of George Bush majoring in history is just too rich.
As such, Bush is now fighting both in the arena of politics and in the arena of history.
He omits the arena of criminal law. A serious oversight and one which is motivating as many of the administration's decisions as the other two.

I think a large part of the reaction IS because of the war, and not the girlfriend hypocrisy. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
The thing was that Wolfowitz had placed "nepotism" high on his list of World Bank priorities. And that made it almost impossible for the World Bank to maintain credibility with the developing world. After all, what we call "nepotism" in Nigerians is called "personal loyalty" in DC.

"Thu May 17, 6:11 PM ET
NEW YORK (AFP) - Former US vice president Al Gore has added a little fuel to rumors he could run for president in 2008, telling the latest edition of Time magazine due out Friday that he hasn't entirely ruled it out.
But while speculation has been swirling for months that the environmental campaigner could announce a White House bid, he told the magazine that he "fallen out of love with politics" and that he was unlikely to run.
"I haven't ruled it out. But I don't think it's likely to happen," Gore told Time, explaining that he considered the role he was now playing as a global spokesman for awareness on climate change to be an important one."

In my lifetime there was a place in the Republican party for the likes of Eisenhower, Javits, Dirksen, Weicker, Mathias and countless others, even Goldwater, for whom I'd be personally unlikely to vote, but who were decent people whose views were worthy of consideration. Perhaps this could happen again.

There was a time when the Republican Party stood for balanced budgets, and civil liberties, and personal freedom, and education, and opportunity.
And it wasn't all that long ago. The really bad changes came in '94, when Gingrich and Co. took over the party.
The Fox Noise lackeys this morning were using the McCain potty mouth to add to his nutcase persona. I think the fix is in for Romney this year, just like for AWOL in 2000.

I think you're exactly right.
K-Lo has cut back on the number of unattainable crushes she has on Republican men.
I don't wish to do anything to help the Republican Party whatsoever. The implosion is fine by me.
SteveLG,
I disagree. I remember that we used to have a Republican Governor who was a pretty good guy (William Milliken) and a Senator who was decent: Robert Griffin.
I voted for Milliken but never voted for Griffin. But I respected him until about '68 when he went completely over to the dark side of Republicanism. (I think this is about the time when the Republicans truly went evil) He started spouting code words for racism and denigrating other people's positions as being unAmerican and all that claptrap they are still using.
No, the Republicans at this point are beyond redemption. I cannot even conceive of a good republican. They are corrupt and unAmerican.
Oh, and... I located a very local 2001 Honda Reflex for $2250, yesterday. It has 14K+ miles on it, though... and it's being sold by the unethical fuckers who charged me $150 to charge the battery on the CDM.

Aconitum napellus crowns grow incrementally, and might be divided every so often (3+ years), but if you dead-head the flowers before seeds form, there is little invasive potential. Nice choice.

Watertiger is correct -- the third was Huckabee.
To be clear, I don't think the "redemption" of the Republican party is at all likely. I agree that the corruption is probably too widespread and thorough.
But I have to wish well to any remaining Republicans of principle, like -- I presume -- Iglesias, who want to make the attempt to reclaim their party. Even if I'll never vote for them.

I yield to no one in my contempt for Richard Nixon, but if you go back and check some of the programs that were implemented in his administration, there's room for another opinion:
Noam Chomsky has called Nixon, "in many respects the last liberal president."...The political dominance of the liberal consensus, even into the Nixon years, can best be seen in policies such as the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency or in Nixon's (failed) proposal to replace the welfare system with a guaranteed annual income by way of a negative income tax. Affirmative action in its most quota-oriented form was a Nixon administration policy. Even the Nixon "War on Drugs" allocated two-thirds of its funds for treatment, a far higher ratio than was to be the case under any subsequent President, Republican or Democrat. Additionally, Nixon's normalization of diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China and his policy of detente with the Soviet Union were probably more popular with liberals than with his conservative base./wiki

Whoever said that there's no such thing as a principled Republican is right.
Remember how for the 50 years of the Cold War their whole purpose was "protecting" us from the evil Commie menace? Then they turned around in less than a decade and sold us to the Commies.
Remember how strongly they believed in term limits in 1994, and how none of them abided by it?
Remember all the happy crappy about balanced budgets they spouted, as they threw borrowed money (from the Chinese, see point A) at corporate America and the wealthy?

"Evolution Opponent Running Unopposed For National School Board Association
In 2005, the Kansas Board of Education received national ridicule when it rewrote public school standards to cast doubt on the mainstream evolution theories of Charles Darwin.
One of the board members who voted to teach intelligent design was Kenneth Willard, a conservative who is now the only member running as president-elect for the National Association of State Boards of Education. NASBE is a nonprofit organization of state school boards that “works to strengthen state leadership in educational policymaking.”" http://thinkprogress.org/2007/05...nsas-evolution/

Ga. Republican avoids war in campaign
WASHINGTON - The Republican front-runner in the race to succeed a late Georgia congressman jumps at the chance to talk about immigration or Southern values. Ask him about the war in Iraq, and he clams up.
"Iraq has not been a big thing in our district," Jim Whitehead said recently.
...
Democrats were already criticizing Whitehead's reticence about Iraq before Whitehead told Capitol Impact, a political Web site, that the war was no big deal.
Since then, critics have seized on Whitehead's words as proof that he is out of touch with public opinion. Some note the timing of his comment — while district residents were grieving two soldiers who graduated from the same local high school and died in Iraq.

What annoys me, also, is that we've got people writing into the paper saying the high gas prices mean we should drill in Alaska.
1) Refinery capacity is (accidentally on purpose) way down.
2) The oil would likely be sold to Asia where there's a better profit.
Drilling in Alaska--land belonging to We the People mind you--would just mean even more massive profits for oil companies. In fact, the cost of the exporation and drilling will be passed onto us.
