Hllary has proven one thing: she can't win, and can't campaign nationally. She did it herself, nobody did it to her. that's a fact, an indisputable fact. Suck on it.

______
I'm so filled with hope right now I can't stand it. Left my home county 32 years ago for so many reasons. Very few opportunities for anyone there with a college education, and then even the lumber/plywood jobs disappeared. Very, very red rural county that still has only 1/2% black population and only 12.1% have a college degree (25% statewide). Saw no reason to go back to that "redneck close-minded place" (my words and feelings). So today I'm so very pleased to see a standing room only crowd cheering for Obama when he says we'll close Guantanamo. Standing ovation when he called for doubling NIH research and quitting the stupid ban on stem cell research. Watching this group of "uneducated white hard working Americans" ask wonderfully nuanced questions. My conclusion: if the people of Linn County, Oregon are fucking sick and tired on the bushies as shown at that town hall today, the whole country is sick of them.
Have no fear. We'll crush McCain in November. My homies are clued in and sick of this shit!

ST. LOUIS, May 8/PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG) has joined calls by Washington University students and faculty, urging the school to reconsider its plans to honor controversial activist Phyllis Schlafly with an honorary doctorate at the school's May 16 commencement ceremonies in St. Louis. Schlafly,
founder of the conservative advocacy group The Eagle Forum, has been an
outspoken opponent of equal rights measures for the women's and gay,
lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. In addition to her opposition to marriage equality for the GLBT community, Schlafly has also sought to
block public school curriculums which present honest portrayals of GLBT
people.
"Phyllis Schlafly has spent much of her life on a crusade to roll back
opportunities for millions of people, including many of the students at
Washington University," said Dr. Dean L. Rosen, president of PFLAG's St.
Louis chapter. "She has consistently opposed full equality for women and
for gays and lesbians, and has pushed her anti-equality agenda in our
schools and our state houses. As parents and allies of GLBT young people, we are alarmed that Washington University would honor someone who has such a long track record of attacking our children."
Nice job there, Wash U. A real burning cross in your cap.

To tell him my man Willie was behaving like a beast
He gave me such a terrible row, my eyes were filled with tears
"How long have you been wed?" says he, says I, "This seven years"
Says he, "You'd better give over all your evil, sinful tricks
You've been married seven years and you've only got the six"

Her early records are tremendous...The Bargain Store, Just Because I'm a Woman, Jolene, etc...those are terrific songs.

And even her later slop doesn't sound so bad compared to the mean-spirited, underwritten horseshit that passes for country music these days.
She made a couple of back-to-rudiments albums for a small label a few years back - both well worth hearing, IIRC - excepting an egregious cover of "Stairway To Heaven."
The new album is pretty faceless countrypolitan - she needs to hook up with some youngsters, so she can enjoy her Jack White/Loretta Lynn moment..

The McClatchy story on a CIA clandestine officer spewing internet rumors and nonsense [Muslim, Black Panther, etc.] and since Larry's cite No Quarter is absolutely unhinged in its Obama loathing and spreads similar stuff, I wondered if he'd deny it isn't him.
He did, and then went on a rant against me (which is fine I guess) and against Obama and proved the point.
