GravatarI'm looking fiveward to the debate


GravatarDeep thought: Is it too late to hold the shotgun wedding in Wasilla?


GravatarBefore his strange murder in 1993, party founder Vogler preached armed insurrection against the United States of America. Vogler, who always carried a Magnum with him, was fond of saying, "When the [federal] bureaucrats come after me, I suggest they wear red coats. They make better targets. In the federal government are the biggest liars in the United States, and I hate them with a passion. They think they own [Alaska]. There comes a time when people will choose to die with honor rather than live with dishonor. That time may be coming here. Our goal is ultimate independence by peaceful means under a minimal government fully responsive to the people. I hope we don't have to take human life, but if they go on tramping on our property rights, look out, we're ready to die."

Vogler's greatest moment of glory was to be his 1993 appearance before the United Nations to denounce United States "tyranny" before the entire world and to demand Alaska's freedom. The Alaska secessionist had persuaded the government of Iran to sponsor his anti-American harangue.

That's right ... Iran. The Islamic dictatorship. The taker of American hostages. The rogue nation that McCain and Palin have excoriated Obama for suggesting we diplomatically engage. That Iran.

AIP leaders allege that Vogler, who was murdered that year by a fellow secessionist, was taken out by powerful forces in the U.S. before he could reach his U.N. platform. "The United States government would have been deeply embarrassed," by Vogler's U.N. speech, darkly suggests Clark. "And we can't have that, can we?"

That was the environment of the AIP in the early 90's. Todd joined the AIP in 1995, 2 years later.

"I don't want the Republican Party simply defeated in November, I want to see it smashed beyond all recognition, in such wriggling, writhing, anguished disarray that it can barely reconstitute itself, so desperate for answers that it looks to Newt Gingrich for visionary guidance, his wisdom and insight providing the perfect cup of hemlock to finish off the conservative movement for good so that it can rot in the salted earth of memory unmissed and unmourned in toxic obscurity.

GravatarU.S. consumers reduced their debt load by a record amount in August, the Federal Reserve reported Tuesday. Total seasonally adjusted consumer debt dropped by $7.9 billion, or a 3.7% annual rate, in August to $2.58 trillion. This was the first decline since January 1998. Consumer credit rose 2.4% in July. Non-revolving credit - such as auto loans, personal loans and student loans - dropped sharply by $7.3 billion, or 5.4%, to $1.61 trillion, after rising 0.9% in July. Credit-card debt dropped by $612 million, or 0.8%, in August to $969 billion.


GravatarWhat municipality would bill rape victims for traumatic post-assault forensic exams? And especially in Alaska, where the rape rate is twice the national average.

I think the second question answers the first.

Let's face it: Alaskans are fucking cheap. Why do people live there? Because they want to "get away from all the bullshit," i.e., get away from any sense of responsibility to others. "Hunt your own fucking meat."

GravatarWonder why everyone on TV and in the government is so surpised about the financial problems we're having? I mean, that DFH Atrios has been talking about the "big shitpile" since at least November 4, 2007, nearly a year ago. (Anybody find an earlier example?) Can't say we weren't warned.

This early warning actually helped me to decide that stocks weren't so hot, and move some money, so this doesn't hurt me as badly as it might. But I wasn't as smart as Joseph Kennedy who, when the fellow giving him a shoeshine also gave him a stock tip, got completely out of the market. Lived quite handsomely through the Depression.

GravatarWhy can't he participate in political discussions with dignity and grace, like Peggy Noonan sez? - Sufferin' Succotash

The magic dolphins would want it that way

That being snarked, part of the reason why some Dems come off as strident to many people is their cadence in speaking. You can get a way with spewing a lot of venom if you sound avuncular doing it.

Compare how even the wonderfully witty Ann Richards delivered her bon mot "Poor George. He can't help it. He was born with a silver foot in his mouth" (she sounded like Dilbert's "Loud Howard" ... "Poor! George! He! Can't! Help! [...]") vs. Reagan's "oh, there he goes again".

If Obama can cut McCain's "kids, get off my lawn" with an avuncular "there he goes again", he'll win the election. But if he lapses into one or the other typical Democratic cadences, he'll remain for many one of those overly strident liberals and "scary Negroes" ...

Obama's been doing pretty good lately and he has a lot of potential. He needs to just keep doing better and better ...

The corrupt fucks who rated shitpile securities AAA should be behind bars.

Without those high ratings in the first place, shitpile could never have been built up to the degree it was, since AAA is a requirement that many financial institutions insist on before buying a security. Conversely, when the ratings drop, those institutions are forced into selling them. That's basically what's created the precarious situation we are in now.

Gravatar'But as the project grew, Stanley Cheslock's fortune didn't. His merchant banking firm lost $100 million in the faltering economy and the couple became anxious. To be fair, they're still worth just under $100 million, but with the real estate market grinding to a halt they couldn't unload the house that costs $200,000 in upkeep every year.

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/R...=5472160& page=2

'Gollinger and the Cheslocks have now taken a cue from the foreclosure world, opening a five-week auction with bids starting at $19 million -- a measure usually reserved for properties seized by banks, not high-end real estate.

"What we do is we set a sealed bid price at a price point that is a below market price," said Gollinger.

Indeed. And I hope that regulation of those guys (so that ratings are fair and transparent) is one of the first new bills out of the next administration.


Having a system where ratings agencies compete with each other to see who can hand out the highest ratings in the hopes of attracting more customers (companies have to pay for their bonds to be rated) is absolutely insane.

The for profit raters should be regulated out of existence, or at least put in a position where there isn't a conflict of interest. Say, each company is assigned one set of securities and doesn't compete with others on that block.

GravatarHow To Memorize Scripture
Schedule for Monthly Reading

1. Select The Particular Version you wish to memorize. Use it exclusively when teaching from the Bible. Use the same Bible so that your verses are always at the same place on the page.

2. Find Someone To Memorize With You - your spouse, a preacher, or any other friend. Its better whenever two people memorize, then recite to each other at scheduled times. Two people can maintain goals easier by keeping each other on schedule.

3. Memorize A Few Verses Each Day. Preview the chapter, then assign certain passages for each day of the week. Carry a pocket New Testament. Memorize during small bits of time.

4. Study Each Chapter The Week You Memorize It. Check the meaning of any difficult words or phrases. Understand each idea within the context of its verse, chapter and book.


5. Visualize the Benefits that a memorization of the New Testament will have on your effectiveness as a teacher of God’s word. Keep such benefits before you always.

GravatarWHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Americans' retirement plans have lost as much as $2 trillion in the past 15 months, Congress' top budget analyst estimated Tuesday.

The upheaval that has engulfed the financial industry and sent the stock market plummeting is devastating workers' savings, forcing people to hold off on major purchases and consider delaying their retirement, said Peter Orszag, the head of the Congressional Budget Office...

More than half the people surveyed in an Associated Press-GfK poll taken Sept. 27-30 said they worry they will have to work longer because the value of their retirement savings has declined.

Orszag indicated the fear is well-founded. Public and private pension funds and employees' private retirement savings accounts — like 401(k)'s — have lost some 20 percent overall since mid-2007, he estimated. Private retirement plans may have suffered slightly more because those holdings are more heavily skewed toward stocks, Orszag added...


But-- but-- William Ayres! I said, WILLIAM AYRES!!!


GravatarKerry and Bush went to Harvard, I think Kerry was three years ahead of Bush, and serving his second tour in Nam when Bush snuck into the Texas Air National Gaurd.

20 years for me and the Mrs. two weeks ago.


Gravatarhope I am not repeating here:
http://emptywheel.firedoglake.co...es-a-tax-cheat/

The problem is that Sarah Palin improperly billed the state of Alaska so she could cart her children around to events.

Both the NYT and the WSJ confirm what tax bloggers have already concluded. The Palins did not declare the $43,490 the state reimbursed them for travel costs for Todd and the kids to accompany Sarah on official trips. And they should have--certainly for the funds reimbursing travel for the kids. Here's the WSJ:

While several tax experts have raised serious questions about whether the payments to Gov. Palin are taxable income, they said the case was clearer cut for treating the reimbursements for the children's expenses as taxable income. "The kids are a slam dunk problem," said Robert Spierer, a partner with the accounting firm Perelson Weiner LLP in New York City. "The husband you could make an argument that he had to be there because it was required for spouses to be there."

But not the children, he said. "I don't think I would ever claim that on my clients' returns. I can't think of a real strong argument for it."

[snip]

Bryan Camp, a tax professor at Texas Tech University School of Law and a former Internal Revenue Service lawyer in Washington, said the IRS would ask several questions to determine whether the travel reimbursements were reported properly.

Those questions include whether Mr. Palin and the children were employees of the state of Alaska, whether they traveling for bona fide business purposes, and whether they would have been able to deduct those travel expenses on their own tax returns for business purposes.

Because the answer to at least one and possibly more of those questions is no, "The Palins should have reported the $43,000 in family travel allowances received in 2007 as income," Mr. Camp wrote in an analysis.

See, the Palins almost certainly owe taxes on these funds (the NYT says they owe $6000). Asssuming they pay their back taxes, they can just say, "aw shucks, we didn' know." They do that, and we'll stop calling them tax cheats.

Gravatardoes "God Fearing" put his faith into action by showing love and compassion to his fellow men and women?

In one sense, the point of the Jonah story, read on Yom Kippur, is not to highlight the forgiveness of God, but the importance of putting faith into action.

God's smackdown of Jonah was that God created a whole city yet Jonah (like a conservative trust fund baby) whined when the tree Jonah did nothing to create (yet Jonah felt he deserved) was taken away from him. God is God because God Creates. If we want to achieve a more divine existence we need to be active partners with God in God's creation and take some responsibility rather than whining and complaining a la Jonah.

Even the fundies are starting to realize what the Divine Command of Stewardship means in terms of, e.g., caring for the environment.

But Peter Mbae, Corsi's Kenyan publicist, said that although the author had always planned to leave this evening, he still viewed his departure as forced.

"They treated him like a criminal," Mbae said.

He said the author arrived in the country last week and had been "researching connections between Obama and [Kenyan Prime Minister Raila] Odinga."

Corsi was also planning a publicity event in which he would give $1,000 to one of Obama's impoverished relatives. He was detained at a downtown hotel by immigration officials shortly before the news conference was set to start.
