what war?
First on an Iraq thread. Hurm.
there's no war
it's" mopping up"
Greedy for a homer, eh?
no....actually I thought it must be bonked and there were really 20 comments on that Haloscan was hiding form me...I am usually invisible that way...kinda sad actually.
The dems are in a weird sort of puerile panic and hysteria. They are losing it with wild and rather vicious talk about Palin's various supposed misdemeanors, Obama's campaign itself that is suddenly shrilly whining and screaming about lies and liars, when Obama himself is not gaffing like Biden with silly lipstick riffs and arrogant dismissals of small town mayorships (and after his Pennsylvania clingers speech no less!)—all while liberal bloggers, the MSM columnists, the talking heads on CNN, MSNBC, etc are losing their sanity seeing Karl Roves everywhere stealing their hope and change dreams.
Watching some of this hysterical outpouring of anger is surreal, as grown-ups sound like children whose mothers did not buy them a snack or failed to take them to the zoo as promised.
Oh god, Doughboy Pantload aka ariel52 is back.

Too funny.
No, ariel; the Dems caught McCain in multiple lies and are taking him down. Keep up.
NYTimes opinion page goes after Palin today. I especially liked this LTE:
Thomas L. Friedman quotes John Maxwell, a leadership expert, as saying about Sarah Palin, “I think there are a lot of women out there that look at her, holding her baby, talking about being a hockey mom, and say, ‘She knows what I feel; she’s going through what I am going through.’ ”
The question for them is: “Am I ready to be vice president of the United States?”
On the looming Wisconsin ballot debacle: Mark Jefferson, executive director of the state Republican Party, ... "You do the best with the lists you have, and no list is perfect."
He was chaneling Rumsfled, fer crissake.
bwa

There is no war; there is only an endless opposed occupation that the US Army was not designed to deal with.
...the glory of it all
OK....time to go to work (yuk)

megisi--actually that quote had to do with the inaccurate McCain mailer sending people to the wrong clerk for absentee ballot info, primarily households they pulled off the Democratic voting list, not the state AG's lawsuit challenging lists containing the one million voters who've registered since Jan 06;
Mark Jefferson, executive director of the state GOP, said the mailing is not intended to keep people from the polls and that the wrong absentee ballot applications resulted from incorrect information in databases used for the mailing.
"You do the best with the lists you have, and no list is perfect," Jefferson said. "There is certainly no type of suppression effort going on."
So I really feel stupid. I had know idea that Alaska had been fighting a war against their close neighbor Russia.
Speaking of the zoo, ariel, someone should take you to the closest zoo and throw you to the hyenas. They aren't at all fussy about what they eat. Even repug trash.

Trouble is, there was a study done fairly recently that suggested that stupid people don't know they are stupid.
Look--I've turned down supervisory jobs in my profession because I don't feel qualified. But becoming a supervisor is basically the path to a better job and salary.
Now how many people do what I do? Not many, I bet.
People have no frame of reference for competent management, because there is so goddammed little of it. So of course they think "why not me?"
The GOP has several schemes to disenfranchise voters in WI, in other words.

Ariel52 really should say 'some dems' seem to be panicked as its grouping ideology is nothing more than rumor mongering tabloid style.
Its like me saying all repubs hate McCain and pray for his death.
Some funny sheet from John Cole's sight..he's right..this election is the stupidest thing ever seen...
These were quotes of the night...
Pressed about what insights into recent Russian actions she gained by living in Alaska, Palin answered: “They’re our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.”
Our very own Krista, in the comments, responds:
And when I look out my window I can see the moon. Doesn’t make me a fucking astronaut now, does it?

From Prof Wombat, near the end of the old thread:
It's worth thinking about the West Point Honor Code. Not tolerating someone who lies means, if taken on face value, that if you're caught, say, bragging about Saturday evening exploits, you get thrown out of Woo Poo. So either there's discretion, or there's rigidity to the extent that human interaction becomes impossible.
So such a code requires--not implies, requires--that a level of tolerance for lying be arrived at socially, with no controls whatever otherwise. It thereby demands hypocrisy. It places group cohesion, for better or for worse--and anybody who's ever been in the military has seen both--before all else, which, on its face, is quite the opposite of the intent of such a code.
The West Point motto is Duty, Honor, Country. The order of these three is vitally important, and far from a casual construction. Duty, to one's fellows, comes before honor.
Words of wisdom. Maintaining group solidarity is, for better or for worse, and yes, I've seen them both, number one.
Before any allegiance to truth.
The question isn't "Am I qualified to be vice president?' The question, is, 'Am I qualified to be president?'
Me I'm not. No question about it.

Palin never went to West Point, so it's okay for her to lie with impunity.

I find that many conservatives are wholly ignorant of the economical mess we are facing, being single issue voter parrots.
Isn’t it ironic that in the greatest capitalist nation in the world, the credit system has been supported by an implicit state guarantee, and that privately owned institutions use that guarantee to support huge, entrepreneurial risk taking empires. As many have complained, privatizing gains and socializing losses.

Excellent point, Professor.
But then, as Adam and others have noted, he did graduate at the bottom of his class. We're seeing part of the reason for that now, one assumes.
Personally, I explain the world as due to most everyone being as high as a kite. Like for instance, NTodd, whacked on acid, right here, right now. It explains so much.
NTodd: we all lie. The question is whether we do so with consequence, with harm to others.
Palin's lies speak directly to her conduct of office. They alone, seems to me, would disqualify her from it. The contrast with, say, Bill Clinton lying about Monica Lewinsky, a morally dubious act having little if any relevance to his office other than that manufactured by his hysterical and ruthless opponents, is clear.
That's a good security situation?

The shame wrought by Nixon was largely internal; internationally, the U.S. reputation was largely intact after Watergate.
Bush brought substantially more shame on this country than Nixon, and McCain could do significantly more damage.

I think it had something to do with perpetual war = perpetual war powers for the president.
Certainly true. But, can't forget that a very high percentage of this administration wanted to turn Iraq into a laboratory for Friedman's economic ideas.
They were going to make a model capitalist state of the country, and if one looks at the history of the Chicago school, that translates into a smash and grab job. They wanted to use the chaos to privatize assets at fire sale prices--and they did for a while, until the chaos they created to obscure the theft overwhelmed them, and Talibani upset their apple cart by insisting on elections.
I still think a remake of 'Grand Illusion', using attendees at Davos, say, could be as prescient as the original's use of economic and social class against the war...

"Obama: John McCain is “cynically running the sleaziest and least honorable campaign in modern presidential campaign history.”
In a shift from the apolitical tone the presidential candidates took during Hurricane Gustav, Barack Obama did not temper his rhetoric Saturday, as his spokesman accused John McCain of “cynically running the sleaziest and least honorable campaign in modern presidential campaign history.”
“John McCain wants to have a debate about national security let’s have that debate. I warned that going into Iraq would distract us from Afghanistan. John McCain cheer-leaded for it. John McCain was wrong and I was right,” Obama told a screaming New Hampshire crowd.
“The McCain-Palin ticket, they don’t want to debate the Obama-Biden ticket on issues because they are running on eight more years of what we’ve just seen. And they know it,” Obama said. “As a consequence what they’re going to spend the next seven, eight weeks doing is trying to distract you.
“They’re going to talk about pigs and they’re going to talk about lipstick, they’re going to talk about Paris Hilton, they’re going to talk about Britney Spears. They will try to distort my record and they will try to undermine your trust in what the Democrats intend to do.” [...]

Pakistan pursues diplomacy with US on border raids (AP)
Since Aug. 13, there have been at least seven reported missile strikes, as well as the ground forces operation, in tribally governed territory where the government has little control. The border region is considered a likely hiding place for al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden and his deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri.
Top government officials indicated Pakistan was trying to avoid an outright confrontation with Washington, its ally and financial supporter, after the main opposition party suggested the country should consider dropping out of the war on terror if cross-border attacks continue.
Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani told reporters late Friday Pakistan would prefer to resolve any issue with Washington through diplomatic channels, adding that the issue will be discussed on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York later this month.
"Due to this American policy, the tribal people will join militants and our work will be damaged," he said hours after the latest missile strike. "We will not allow anyone to interfere inside our country.
"It is not that we will launch any attack. We will try to convince America, we will try to convince Britain that they should respect the sovereignty of Pakistan, and God willing, we will be able to convince them."
However, Pakistan's army chief Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani has vowed to protect the country's sovereignty "at all cost."
A group of tribal elders representing about a half-million people in the North Waziristan area, where most of the missile attacks have occurred, threatened Saturday to join forces with Taliban militants in Afghanistan.
"If America doesn't stop attacks in tribal areas, we will prepare an army to attack U.S. forces in Afghanistan," chief tribal elder Malik Nasrullah told a news conference in Miran Shah, the area's largest city. "We will also seek support from the tribal elders in Afghanistan to fight jointly against America."
well, to most conservatives, the power is, itself, the end, rather than the means.

Potentially, might have been even more disastrous. Nixon had a lot more brains than Bush, and even so, he couldn't resist getting himself into major league trouble.
Also, don't forget, we had an honest-to-goodness working press back then.
Today, not so much.
Nixon was tragedy. Bush, farce.
Here's Blackheart being released by the Vietnamese. As you can see, he was still John McCain back then.

McCain/Palin Crowd Size Estimates Not Backed By Officials:
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/ne...&
refer=politics
Hey, did you guys hear that incog paid us a visit today? It went very good. Or rather he was his old funny self. It was great. We could use him back.
Damnit.
Palin has sucked all the oxygen out of the campaign. Obama gave an important speech on education the other day. Anybody hear about it? How about Biden out stomping, doing a grand job. Anybody hear about that?
Shouldn't Biden get a series of prime time interviews to introduce himself to Americans. I'm betting most people, who are not political junkies, have no clue who he is.
admit you were wrong about the surge"-cable newstards to Obama
jr | 09.13.08 - 2:15 pm | #
````````````````````````````
Speaking of the surge, why is it that the media never tells us how the US governments paying money to different tribes to not fight and Al Sadr's cease fire aren't directly related to the success of the surge?
Yet we are led to believe the so called success of the surge can be directly attributed to our bestest, most greatest general ever, General Betrayus.
A media narrative is emerging:
John McCain is a liar.
Fits on a bumper sticker; sums up the situation most appropriately.
This was a transistor radio that Eleanor's assistant was carrying around holding to her ear. Some editor missed that one.
Shouldn't Biden get a series of prime time interviews to introduce himself to Americans.
Seems the equal time mantra has disappeared.
if memory serves, the practical little radios didn't show up until 1953 or 1954...
For sure, but, there were some out there a bit earlier that could be had if you knew the right people.
Palin has sucked all the oxygen out of the campaign.
It will ebb. It's already starting to.
Though he couldn't do it, McCain should have announced this pick Oct 22, or thereabouts.
Is Obama doing enough to hang Bush around the conservaturds' necks? They are avoiding him like the plague.
Ariel 52 sez...
Yes, I was here when incog came incognito; no, it wasn't great.
To my mind, Alexander had it about right. Bush, you are a stumbling drunk. Now show us what you are really made of.
15/16 of Bush's time is done -- just go away.
I definitely have a thing for Sarah Silverman
Nope. I'll look it up.

It's riverdaughter's blog. She used to blog at Kos but felt the guys were disrespecting her during the primaries and so started her own. It's pretty big. Started off fairly rational, but has gone bonkers. I believe she started the whole PUMA business
Why did Cindy McCain become a drug addict who, Phoenix doctors claim, at least three times sought medical attention for injuries consonant with physical violence?

Bush was a conspicuous nothing at his own party's convention.
Fucking Poppy drew a bigger response.

Maybe we still would have ended up with David Gregory dancing with Karl Rove, but, maybe not as quickly.
Ronald Reagan turned politics into show business. It's no surprise that the Washington press followed suit....
How about:
JOHN MCCAIN IS A WIFE BEATER.
Why did Cindy McCain become a drug addict who, Phoenix doctors claim, at least three times sought medical attention for injuries consonant with physical violence?
I can't imagine that any man who would call his wife a cunt in public would ever hit her, can you?
Nixon, like Eisenhower, would be characterized as fucking Liberals by today's standards.
Nixon only started the chipping away process, so he couldn't get away with being as blatantly wingnut as today's folks, in particular when it comes to social programs.
As I stated upthread, today's GOP is the culmination of the processes he set in motion.
It's worth pointing out that he originally got elected to congress in 1946 by using a smear campaign worthy of Karl Rove.
In the '50's, he, like Joe McCarthy, used fear to advance GOPer ends. Then it was commies, today GOPers use muslims for the same ends.
Perhaps Nixon's most important contribution is his invention of the southern strategy.
Fillmore and Harding can finally relax.
Chimpy is the worst president in history.
I always enjoyed incog back in my lurking days, but he was getting so depressed. He posted at Americablog for a time after he left here. I hope he is doing better
Liberal Talk Radio: Palin Molests Teenage Boys [Mark Hemingway]
And the smears keep on coming. Here's liberal talk radio host Randi Rhodes on Palin:
She’s the woman who shows up at the kid’s birthday party and starts opining about everything from politics to lawn care. This is the woman that knows it all. Will shout you down, will get revenge on you. That’s who she is.
She’s friends with all the teenage boys. You have to say no when your kids say, ‘can we sleep over at the Palin’s? No! NO!’
Where's the "Palin Molests Teenage Boys" part, Hemingway? I hope you're not related to the man who wrote about bells tolling.

"In the '50's, he, like Joe McCarthy, used fear to advance GOPer ends. Then it was commies, today GOPers use muslims for the same ends."
It to be all Borsht and Snow in the cold war movies. Now it is camels and sand. To be honest, I will take the cold war over islamoterrorism.
Money does not make one sane.
A media narrative is emerging:
John McCain is a liar.
I certainly hope so, but it's not enough. Unfortunately today's Americans need to be led by the nose to the next step: this means you cannot trust his promises for the future. Merkins need help to get past the initial emotional response to "name-calling."
I can't imagine a woman with her money staying in an abusive relationship.

he's a Senator, with a lot more power than he deserves. just take a look at her. Do you see a happy woman? I see a POW.
Her dad was a miserable cunt and I bet anything he treated all the females in the family like shit. Cindy married daddy and feels she must stay with him or risk daddy's love forever.
She's a sick person in a very sad way and I feel sorry for her. For all her cash she is most unhappy.

Cindy McCain may have osteoporosis issues. She is very thin which is a risk factor. May have done some dieting without a calcium supplement too

Plantsman, he was here today, you were the only one besides me who recognized him.
I ask you a favor, please give him another chance. I don't take this request lightly nor do I think you do not have your reasons. But please hear me out. This is the virtual world and it gets mixed and intertwined with the real one. But incog's heart is in the right place as is yours.
Yes incog got carried away, but the simels gang was relentless with him.
When I ask you to consider giving him another chance it means that he must acknowledge offending you. I think he is man enough to do that. If not so be it.
Seriously, there is not many who can stand up to the gang's hate.

Most definitely.
Look at that worthless dweeb Michael Isikoff who imagined that Tom Cruise would play him in Monicagate: The Movie.
You could tell he was going for that from the getgo.
Cindy has probably threatened to leave the aging war hero but then he probably goes all ape shit on her threatening to stick bamboo splints under her fingernails and then pop her shoulders out of their sockets.

No, but their sinister agents were at the Grassy Knoll, were seen on a longboat in Havana Harbor mere minutes before the USS Maine blew up, were sighted just below the main venue at the Defenestration of Prauge, and were seen using silver coins on Good Friday.
Crazy, crazy, crazy.

had a rather nice day, sunny for once, indulged in some retail therapy with my mother, for dinner we had an Indian takeaway and now i'm chilling with a glass of Chardonnay watching The Last Night of the Proms on the Beeb
It's a shame some Chinese are willing to poison their own babies with melamine in formula. The Beeb has extensive coverage of the "tainted baby-milk" scandal

Well, I'm in a shitty mood, and I'm clearly not getting anymore work done today. Best be off.

Thanks Plantsman for hearing me out. I admit I may be wrong but I think it is worth a try for peace. Plus I don't think I am wrong. With incog I truly believe that it was simels and his hateful sock puppets that drove him over the edge.
But I was so happy to see him here today.
I also want to thank the rest of you good Atroits. I hope you noticed the show and saw that it was only the gang that engaged me today. And by God they brought them all out. Just pay attention, this nasty group are not your friends.
To finish, no way simels is going to Paris with a shady dame. No way!

The campaign also said she had been to Ireland; that turned out to have been a refueling stop.
Add to this that aside from the refueling stop in Ireland, she spent all her time at US military installations.
If you've been at an overseas US military installation, you know that it's just technically "foreign" travel.
NTodd porn:
He lounged behind the Tastee Freeze, a handsome, tall, dissolute man in his forties drawing hard on a Cool's 100. He looked up and the clouds scuttling above mirrored his eyes. A trucker in a plaid shirt and stench walked up to NTodd and inquired, "Brother do you have a minute?"
NTodd assented. They walked around back. NTodd drew from the pocket of his greasy leatherette Members-Only jacket a bottle of Johnson's Baby Oil.
Many of the delegates wore lapel buttons that said, “Coldest State, Hottest Governor.”
Now who was it that brought female stereotypes and looks into the race?

2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: Heb. 11.4
5 but unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
6 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door: and unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
8 ¶ And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?

I am SOOO tired of cops treating their own better than everyone else:
Among the dead, officials confirmed, was a police officer, Spree Desha, 35. When her identity was learned, all officers on the scene formed lines, stood at attention and saluted in silence as her body, covered in a white sheet, was lifted down a ladder and placed with 10 other victims a short distance from the tracks.

Those Batman Penguin videos are a sad but perfect commentary on American politics.
McCain aide Kimmie Lipscomb told reporters on Sept. 10 that an outdoor rally in Fairfax City, Virginia, drew 23,000 people, attributing the crowd estimate to a fire marshal.
Fairfax City Fire Marshal Andrew Wilson said his office did not supply that number to the campaign and could not confirm it. Wilson, in an interview, said the fire department does not monitor attendance at outdoor events.
In recent days, journalists attending the rallies have been raising questions about the crowd estimates with the campaign. In a story on Sept. 11 about Palin's attraction for some Virginia women voters, Washington Post reporter Marc Fisher estimated the crowd to be 8,000, not the 23,000 cited by the campaign.

Sorry about my mom acting out, if that was the problem.
Humanists are suing the government's exam agency over its decision to prevent a board giving humanism equal status to faiths in a religious education GCSE.
The OCR board had proposed allowing children to study humanism in as much depth as Christianity, Islam and Judaism in the GCSE but the move was barred by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority's regulator Ofqual. It said the syllabus put forward meant students would be able to study only humanism, rather than any of the major religions, which meant it did not fulfil their regulatory criteria.
The British Humanist Association (BHA), backed by supporters including Philip Pullman and AC Grayling, this week issued proceedings for a judicial review, claiming it was discriminatory and in breach of the QCA's own criteria and the European convention on human rights, which gives non-religious beliefs equal status. Andrew Copson, BHA director of education, said: "It threatens to turn back the progress of recent decades towards a more inclusive, educationally valid and objective subject of RE."
Humanism has been included in RE for more than 30 years. The OCR curriculum would have been the first time it was given equal weighting to religions in a GCSE.

To Lubyanka:
After your disgusting performance last night where you sunk to an all time low by mocking those who drowned in New Orleans and elevated your dispicable racial tones, I want to be the first to say I hope you die a slow and miserable death and soon!
Trust me when I say this, if I have the displeasure of ever meeting you in real life after last night I would with pleasure beat you to death with my bare hands. You worthless, vile piece of shit!

The half-Irish, half-English barkeep launched into a long joke the point of which was the inferiority of non-Irish Catholics. As the barkeeps arms flailed an aged Dago hooker came up to Steve.
"Hey, Handsome," she purred. She subsequently began hacking violently and ended up spitting her dentures into her half-finished glass of Irish whiskey.
When she finished, she rolled a billous eye at Steve.
"Wanna, good-time, Handsome?"
Yes, in fact Steve wanted a good-time.
