Probably my favorite memory of the campaign was the day after the election, when an African American kid about 10 rode his bike to HQ to see if we had any stuff left. I was standing in the hallway talking to him and he said, "Obama won!" and when he said that, I just cannot describe the look on his face. The absolute joy. His eyes alight. It was positively magical.

Felt it all the way through my body.

GravatarThere are so many african-americans still around from the Jim Crow era.

I think those people in particular should be paid reparations. Those who were systematically denied the right to vote or an education equal to that received by whites, by virtue of their residency, should be paid cold hard cash.

David Gregory gets a sly working-over from Colbert

Colbert: Do you think -- what is the press' relationship going to be with Barack Obama, as opposed to what it was with George Bush? Do you think there's going to be a different kind of press to meet?

Gregory: No, I think the press will do a good job. I think the press will ask the right questions. Look, we're in a time of crisis now and --

Colbert: I think you ask the right questions too. I mean, you ask questions like, 'Why are we in Iraq?' That's the right question. Not, 'Why would you want to go to Iraq?' You wait until we're there.

Gregory: I think that's a misreading of the kind of questions that were asked.

Colbert: But shouldn't you prove you're not asleep at the wheel with the Obama administration? I mean, just bring it hammer and tongs to this guy. Honeymoon over! OK? Honeymoon over, let's get straight to the divorce with this guy! Shouldn't the supposed crimes of the Bush administration be paid for by Barack Obama?

Gregory: I think you will see this press corps -- I certainly will ask the same kinds of questions to this administration that I asked to the last.

GravatarThis is what 45 looks like

young kids like that are strong enuf to put up with the crap that will be pitched at them

(more from the freeper post

This is not the place to go into the hows and whys of this past election: an eight-year long incessant farrago of lies, mendacity and uncompromising evil directed against President Bush, carried out by the most profoundly ignorant and/or sincerely naive and suggestible and/or most deeply hateful among us, has resulted in the capture of the presidency by B. Hussein Obama. This has primarly been engineered by a herd-like "press," exhibiting the sort of mindless, hagiographic adoration that in other places and times has resulted in absolute dictatorships. A traitorous, ignorant and vicious "media" that has hated Presisent Bush simply because he stood upright and breathed, is principally responsible for the present nightmare come true. The ignorant, the suggestible, the hateful: they voted as the media told them to vote.

The proposition is simple. I make no claim whatsoever for novelty here - many, many others have suggested this before me, and some are already doing this. My only point is: DO IT AND START NOW - DO NOT WATCH ANY OBAMAVISION ON ANY CHANNEL. EVER. AGAIN. EVER. Get information from the internet instead of TV. Over time, this WILL hurt the networks. TURN THE TV OFF. NOW. KEEP IT OFF. It is of equal importance to PASS THIS ON. This cannot be overstated: pass this on everywhere. As moveon.org did with their unpatriotic lies we can do with our patriotic truths. Re-write it your own way if you wish. Make this concept go "viral" - posts of this type should flood the internet and become news. The needed consequences of this will not happen overnight. It will take time - years - but the bottom line for the media is money. The Obama-TV media, which, sadly, is almost all our media now, will - in time - collapse without viewers and the associated advertising income. We *WILL* bring them to their knees by NOT WATCHING. Be patient. Persevere. If your TV is on at this moment, get up out of your chair and turn it off now. Never give up. One more time: TURN OFF OBAMAVISION NOW AND KEEP IT OFF.


BWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!

I am loath to close. We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory...

GravatarI guffawed when you-know-who said banana bread was not an appropriate house-gift.


GravatarNice to feel good about America for a change.


GravatarVicki!  Make Elvis Bread!  Add peanut butter and chocolate chips!  It's delicious!
(Just start with the first ingredient into the bowl, following with all the rest.  The mixer will take care of puree'ing the bananas just fine.  Chips and nuts at your choice.)

BANANA PEANUT BUTTER BREAD
4 extra-ripe medium bananas, peeled
1/3 c. chunky-style peanut butter
1/4 c. butter, softened
2 eggs
2 c. flour
1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
Chocolate chips
Nuts
Slice bananas into blender. Puree until smooth (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups). Beat peanut butter and butter until smooth. Beat in eggs, then bananas until
blended. Combine dry ingredients; gradually beat into banana mixture until blended. Pour into greased 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. Bake in 350 degree oven 50 minutes until wooden pick inserted comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan. Turn onto wire rack to complete cooling. Makes 1
loaf.

GravatarPart shade, morning light if possible; I'd worry about PHX Sun cooking
the blossoms by the time they come, and bring the pot inside,

That's the side yard then - on the south side of the house, fully enclosed with tall block walls and the house, two orange trees and the Chinese pistache.  Filtered sun, no direct.  I've got basil growing there without being hit by cold or heat, as well as parsley, chives, irises, calla lilies, lavender - they'll be fine there.  Assuming Arthur doesn't decide to take a nap on them.

Gravatar"A beautiful bunch of ripe tarantula,

So sang my cousin, even as a parent, because as one of four kids in the family of an Army chaplain. Perforce, his mom always bought the sacks of over-ripe bananas. A few were consumed and the rest became banana bread.

To this day he becomes nauseated at even a whiff of banana.


GravatarAndyMN, I think it's only peanut butter from certain very specific sources - not Laura Scudder's or Trader Joe's nothingbutpeanutsandoilandsalt.  In any case, this will be cooked, eliminating the salmonella danger.

Last fall he was invited to Bill Clinton's Global Initiative thing in NYC. His family had taken a penthouse suite in an upscale hotel, but one of them saw a mouse. Freak-out scene ensued.

So they left and went to another hotel. That second hotel had to clear out a penthouse suite for Muhammad and his entourage, so the other guest, who apparently wasn't showing quite enough green to keep the suite, got the boot and Mohammad took it over.

The guest that got asked to leave so Muhammad could have the suite: Sarah Palin!

True story. I heard it from someone who was there.

Muhammad is a big deal here in Phoenix. He does a lot of Parkinson's Disease charity work here.

U noes all the cool people.

Including me.


GravatarOh jeez - Tweety calls Michelle Bernard 'Michelle Obama', panel laughs out of pity.


GravatarDidn't I read something recently about plans to spruce up the SS United States as a museum?


GravatarBailout is a No-Strings Windfall to Bankers, if not to Borrowers

Who could possibly have seen that coming?


GravatarHere he comes!


Gravatarthe wizard of oz was not about witch pogroms.

Those fucking Munchkins deserved to be thrown in ovens.

GravatarYou know who I'm jealous of?

The lucky guy who is the new head WH photographer.

GravatarI just get this picture of Malia in 12th grade in 2016, pissing dad off with the cell phone bill, with Michelle reminding dad that she has straight A's, and is going to Harvard.


Gravatarshoeattack, it just doesn't seem like such a good idea to talk about killing witches to a self-described witch.


GravatarI'm going to be smiling for a long time.

I hope my face freezes that way.


Gravatarwe have ignition...


GravatarI want Rob Zombie's wardrobe from the Hellbilly Deluxe sets....


I'd kick Zombie in the ass.

Hard.

On account the stupid pimp wanted to remove Keef from the list of greatest guitarists on the old VH1 show.

I'd have a field day with Rob.

If that's true I missed it. I hope you're right, it really looks like she's fading fast - worse than in that image I posted.

Gravatarjac That is v cool. Are you in DC, yet?


Gravatarthis will clear out the cube farm


Gravatar"The lucky guy who is the new head WH photographer."

he paid his dues with sluggo.


GravatarSpike Lee is kinda overrated.


GravatarChris Matthews has no black friends, right?

Geez, what an embarrassment.

Gravatar Mr. Smith Goes to Washington

better not be since this movie unblinkingly documents how a corrupt machine can effectively use lies backed by money to crush the truth

in the movie, jefferson smith is really naive and is only saved from being utterly discredited by the intervention of a deus ex machina when the corrupted senator has a spark of conscience and spills the beans

.


Gravatarjac That is v cool. Are you in DC, yet?

Got in yesterday.


GravatarI hope my face freezes that way.
2 days to go


It will if the Ravens win tomorrow!


GravatarI have a picture somewhere of my mom, dad, me and my brother at dinner on New Year's eve on the ship.

All the women are dressed for dinner - those were different times.


Gravatarlast comment on this--i wasnt addressing the remark to anyone in particular, she took it wrong. if she doesnt believe me, thats ok too.

Or white friends, or yellow friends, or brown friends . . .


GravatarRight now what I'm doing for the greater good is using the green lint from my new flannel sheets to craft a beard and mustache in the hopes of getting my niece to have a giggle fit.

Fielding Mellish


Fucking genius I tells yah! What greater use of lint could there possibly be?


GravatarThe Matt Taibbi article on Freidman is hysterical. I'm reading it and trying to listen to his Tweety bit with Spike, Michelle and the Howard president and laughing so hard I can barely think.
.


GravatarAh. So this is what hope feels like. What a fantastic day.

They'll be plenty of chances for sour grapes lately, right now it's time to relax and enjoy the hell out of this. Group hugs!

Gravatar"All the women are dressed for dinner - those were different times."

you look at the old train station pic...people in dresses, coats, ties, hats.

today everything looks like a bus station.


Gravatarlast comment on this--i wasnt addressing the remark to anyone in particular, she took it wrong. if she doesnt believe me, thats ok too.

Yeah, it's always the fault of the people being insulted.

And yet there's such a feeling of good will from his companions.

GravatarCandy Crowley said earlier that they were having a birthday party on the train for Michelle.

I'll bet that's why they went slowly to DC from Baltimore.

GravatarAndy, you on facebook right now?


Gravatari'm crying even if i ain't american


Gravatarso what're they gonna do with all that dry fucking powder?


Gravatar"Fuck...I can't read Open Left anymore."

GravatarYeah, Vicki.

GravatarAfternoon, good people.

I sure wish I was along that train route right now.

Damn, but that looks exciting!


Gravatarwow they brought his car back to the tracks. never seen that before


GravatarI'm going to have to drink a lot of liquids the next few days to stock up the tears.


Gravatar
hate machine?


The failed presidency of Obama is in full swing over there.


Gravatar Sparkle Plenty: And yet there's such a feeling of good will from his companions.

But you know, the last time they got into these discussions, it was with a drunken frat boy, years ago.

*sigh*
.


GravatarDid she criticize the choice of frosting, by any chance?

HA HA

no, she just saw the party through the window - said Michelle and the girls were dancing

sounded like a happy time


Gravatarthe car is moving!


GravatarFrom Free Republic:

I think Bush is going to be like that science or English teacher you had years ago. Every day in that teacher’s class was a little bit of hell. You even considered murder a couple of times. But now, years later, you realize just how valuable that teacher was in your education.

Heheheheheeeee...


GravatarOkay, I meant to go run errands 4 hours ago.


I blame Obama.


GravatarThe failed presidency of Obama is in full swing over there.
AndyMN, shovel-ready


I asked my wife how long of a honeymoon the media were going to give Obama. And she said, "You mean it isn't over already?"

Some of the journalists out there could perhaps earn some good will by doing, you know, actual reporting.


Gravatar"The failed presidency of Obama is in full swing over there."

figured.

sad.

i know he'll do things to disappoint me, but is it too much to ask for a short period of happiness, hope and some grace?

dood is walking into the worst situation of any pres. since fdr, and it may even be worse in this scary world.


GravatarPeople are happy to see Obama arrive, and happy to see Bush go.
2 days to go.


Heh, amen to that.

What annoys me is that Bush's Farewell Tour is taking so damned long.

You'd think he was a rock star or something.


Gravatarthe Obama tuque sure looks popular today!


GravatarSo this is hope. It feels good.

But it would feel a lot better if the Treasury gave me a billion dollars to buy myself a bank.

Just sayin'.


GravatarWhat annoys me is that Bush's Farewell Tour is taking so damned long.

You'd think he was a rock star or something.


Diane, no one has been listening to him and no one cares except to point and laff and say, "MISERABLE FAILURE!!!"

if he's like a rock star, then he's like milli vanilli

GravatarNow, let's not go hatin' on ex-Pres Bush. After all, take that crash landing the other day on the Hudson.

Imagine: Suppose the passengers at the moment of geese impact had had a chance to vote either for a pilot they wanted to have a beer with, or someone competent. You know they'd have voted for the frat guy, right?


Gravatari know he'll do things to disappoint me, but is it too much to ask for a short period of happiness, hope and some grace?

Cheerios?

They probably prefer Sugar Frost Flakes when I think of it, so they can look at at the box art. You have two ladies there and that Tony probably is a striking figure to them.

Culture of TrÜth | Homepage | 01.17.09 - 6:28 pm


What did my cat Spike ever do to deserve being stuck with Matthews?


Gravatarrepeating a thought from earlier, as it pertains to the comment above:

The accomplished ditching of the US Airways plane pilot by Chesley B. Sullenberger III was the perfect coda to the Bush years.
In a fitting coincidence, it even overshadowed the president's final address to the nation; reality once again intruding on the public relations fantasies of the Bush administration.
At the center, the event was occupied by a man who is everything George W. Bush is not; A well trained professional, who took his job and responsibilities seriously, reacted calmly under extremis and with precision and care. His moment of truth became a job well done.
Nice moment. Glorious news. More to come.
