Schools have let alot of maintenance languish for lack of funds (overhaul of how we finance them for another day.) There are lots of things needing to be fixed--roofs, bathrooms, bubblers, playgrounds.

Good. Let Gov. Frist deal with it. With the Republicans in charge of the state senate and house, and soon to be in the governorship, I anticipate the State of Tennessee returning to the days when roads, plumbing and shoes were Yankee myths.
Republicans can't run a government to save their lives.

That the Senate Democrats, who have a powerful majority for the first time in many many years, are still wringing their hands and moaning because their majority isn't filibuster-proof, just shows what worthless spineless sell-out jellyfish they really are.
Firstly, how about making filibusters REAL again? Make some poor bastard stand up there and read the fucking phone book until he passes out.
Secondly, why o why can't we get a good strong charismatic leader in the Senate like LBJ? He may not have been the nicest guy, but he knew the rules inside and out, knew where the bodies were buried, knew when to pressure and when to coddle, and got things done.

A girl went out on a date with a trumpet player, and when she came back her roommate asked, "Well, how was it? Did his embouchure make him a great kisser?"
"Nah," the first girl replied. "That dry, tight, tiny little pucker; it was no fun at all."
The next night she went out with a tuba player, and when she came back her roommate asked, "Well, how was his kissing?"
"Ugh!" the first girl exclaimed. "Those huge, rubbery, blubbery, slobbering slabs of meat; oh, it was just gross!"

Hecate mentioned beautiful old roses in cemeteries
There are a lot of beautiful old cemeteries in Kentucky and Tennessee, little family places or cemeteries for communities that are no longer there. I actually like wandering around in old cemeteries, it's interesting to look at the names and dates of people long gone and imagine their lives.
I remember the cemetery in Asheville, North Carolina being especially beautiful.

Best short-term infrastructure idea is expanding broadband and/or wifi coverage to rural/depressed areas. Quick, relatively cheap to install and the benefits are immediate. Will put a lot of people to work, and give a lot of others more employment opportunities, including telecommuting. It's clean, green and carbon-free.
It also has the benefit of allowing more news and information outlets to enter rural/exburb homes in lieu of, well, Fixed News.

The beauty of infrastructure as a stimulus package is that most of what that kind of work is not "make work" worthless projects. A lot of the old WPA projects are used to this day.
There is an almost infinite supply of things that need to be done, so there is no limit to how many unemployed you could hire.
If you could, where would you go?

Yes, of course. We need a WPA approach to this mess. The problem is that we don't have Hoovervilles and bread lines as a daily visual reminding the nation of How Bad Things Are so it's easy for certain folks to delude themselves into believing that we don't need a solution like that.

US conservative Anglican leaders unveiled yesterday the constitution and laws for a new organisation intended to replace the Episcopal Church as the American arm of the Anglican Communion, which has 77 million members worldwide.
The move is the most telling sign yet that the debate over the role of gay and lesbian Christians has torn apart the first church to appoint an openly gay bishop.
Central to the new organisation's constitution is a declaration that the Bible is regarded as the "final authority and unchangeable standard". The new organisation says the Bible's complex messages about issues such as the ordination of women call for conversation. But the group says the Bible gives a clear message that homosexuality is a sin.

Salvation Army Advisory Board member Helen Lord Burr says the agency has specific rules and they're the same all over the world.

I think it also involved reading the Star Fleet Alumni magazine. These people are doing REAL work. Yet they aren't in charge. They are lead by a bunch of lying, thieving, torture loving Republicans. And since this is the midwest a bunch of these people probably even VOTED for Bush.

Funny story I wrote from yesterday:
This just in from The HillTop, D.C. Social Paper of Note for Notables.
From D.C. To D-Town
Following his move to Dallas The HillTop's Party People predict the Former President will be the HIT of D-Town's social circuit. Everyone who counts will be coming to the lively parties put on by Laura, the lovely librarian and the President, affectionately known as 'Little Boots' to his friends.
As part of the transition the President has asked a few of his favorites to uproot and move to Dallas and join him. It appears our Partier-in-Chief must have his tet-a-tetes with Grandee of elite Washington political society, Sally Quinn; Presidential Piano Player Condi Rice; Dick "Chain Man" Cheney; Karl "T**dblossom" Rove, Donald "Rummy" Rumsfeld; Rush "Limboner" Limbaugh, David "High Broderism" Broder and Cokie "The Cokester" Roberts. Secret sources say he is asking everyone to "Come with! ".
Miss Sally Quinn, the Dishy Doyenne of the D.C. society circle, has said that she wishes she could stay to welcome the Obama's to "The Village" crowd of social whirlers in the Capital, but she feels her duty to her country's social circuit comes first so she will be bringing her A-list guests and her Rolodex to Dallas.
Still no word if Quinn's formerly high-powered husband, Ben "Inky" Bradlee will be joining her. Wags around the Mall say he hopes to play "hoops" with Obama. We think he'll play ball with Quinn's demands to move to Dallas.
Tolls on the East River and Harlem River bridges. The HORROR.
they even have a shot of the newspaper birth announcement the week he was born!
His parents, knowing that their son would one day be elected president, cleverly fooled the newpaper into running that announcement.
Once these nuts get started, no evidence makes any difference. It's like their assertion that god put fossils on earth to "test their faith."
I was pissed at first about the citizenship non-issue, but now I figure, go it for idiots. Spin all the conspiracy theories you'd like, The FBI, CIA and Executive, all under rethug control, allowed Obama to run knowing he wasn't really a citizen. Put on display for the entire world your stupidity. Become the laughingstock of the world. Go ahead asshats. you deserve the scorn and derision coming your way. It will be fifty years before anyone takes anything you seriously.

Oldest Marijuana Stash Found
Dec. 3, 2008 -- Nearly two pounds of still-green plant material found in a 2,700-year-old grave in the Gobi Desert has just been identified as the world's oldest marijuana stash, according to a paper in the latest issue of the Journal of Experimental Botany.
A barrage of tests proves the marijuana possessed potent psychoactive properties and casts doubt on the theory that the ancients only grew the plant for hemp in order to make clothing, rope and other objects.
You just KNOW someone is going to smoke that.

Leave tomorrow noonish. We are psyched.
Didn't I read somewhere that the cost of the automaker bailout exceeds the stock value of the auto companies?
They're TOO BIG TO FAIL. I'd like some Congress critter to propose a law that no corporation will ever again be allowed to achieve a size that renders it TOO BIG TO FAIL.
Payroll tax holiday!! Payroll tax holiday!!
It is the only stimulus both large enough and quick enough to work
Pay roll tax holiday!!
I was pissed at first about the citizenship non-issue, but now I figure, go it for idiots. Spin all the conspiracy theories you'd like, The FBI, CIA and Executive, all under rethug control, allowed Obama to run knowing he wasn't really a citizen.
Yep. "You'd think McCain would've brought it up."
His parents, knowing that their son would one day be elected president, cleverly fooled the newpaper into running that announcement.
Those tricksy false Kenyansasians!
spocko
except the bushes never give parties cuz he has to be in bed by 7:30 worst social WH EVER.
Tolls on the East River and Harlem River bridges. The HORROR.

???? I thought they all had tolls except the Willis/3rd Ave. bridge?
go it for idiots. Spin all the conspiracy theories you'd like, The FBI, CIA and Executive, all under rethug control, allowed Obama to run knowing he wasn't really a citizen. Put on display for the entire world your stupidity. Become the laughingstock of the world. Go ahead asshats. you deserve the scorn and derision coming your way. It will be fifty years before anyone takes anything you seriously.

Like I said before, this is hilarious. I hope it gets HUGE.

Hel10 everyone! Wow, what an interesting blog comment or post. Hey, I was just turned on to Verizon Wireless text-to-pay! Try it now at verizon.com.
It's totally in my face!

I like the way you think. We can haz antitrust laws and strict regulation by mean mean mean Democrats pls?
Didn't I read somewhere that the cost of the automaker bailout exceeds the stock value of the auto companies?
And the stock value is something like seven or eight times greater than the value of all the physical assets, airc.
Like I said before, this is hilarious. I hope it gets HUGE.
Unfortunately, the SCOTUS is loaded with wingnuts.

Really. I can readily imagine the resulting traffic tieups in lower Manhattan.
OTOH maybe I can't.
Sufferin' Succotash | 12.04.08 - 4:35 pm |
That is royally fucked up. Just what we need: more traffic and more pollution. And has it occurred to these schmucks that cabfares are going to go through the roof with the additional wait time?
Thanks a lot for another brilliant idea, Multi-billionaire Mayor Mike.
Some of the arguements against his citizenship are just jaw-dropping. One halfwit at the H.Chron is claiming that the certified form doesn't show where he was born so he can't prove he was natural born. If he hadn't been born in Hawaii, Hawaii would not have issued a birth certificate.
???? I thought they all had tolls except the Willis/3rd Ave. bridge?

No, Brooklyn, Williamsburg, and Manhattan Bridges are all free.

See, you're using logic. They're impervious to it. These are the same folks who "know" that Hillary murdered Vince Foster.
The FBI, CIA and Executive, all under rethug control, allowed Obama to run knowing he wasn't really a citizen.
this thing is gonna be bigger than Bill Clinton's penis ...
Didn't I read somewhere that the cost of the automaker bailout exceeds the stock value of the auto companies?
I can guarantee you the Wall Street bailout far exceeds the value of the banks.
At least the auto companies have some collateral.
And he got away with it! Thanks to a compliant media, compliant McCain, compliant everything else that isn't the right wankosphere. Curses!
worst social WH EVER.

"Sociopath," Hecate. It's spelled "sociopath."
I'd rather see them start charging again for the Staten Island Ferry, even if it's only 25 cents.

So what? He's a citizen. Period.
No, Brooklyn, Williamsburg, and Manhattan Bridges are all free.

Hmmmph, that's what I get for taking the train.
That will, indeed, suck.
sp ock o that's GREAT!
If he hadn't been born in Hawaii, Hawaii would not have issued a birth certificate.
I didn't have a birth certificate right away. Then again, I was born in Kentucky.
So what? He's a citizen. Period.
Gummo | 12.04.08 - 4:42 pm |
Yeah, I really don't see them fucking with this.
If he hadn't been born in Hawaii, Hawaii would not have issued a birth certificate
And the local paper ran an announcement and his mother and father were enrolled at the local university, and the hospital has record of his birth.
The most likely thing is he's actually a dark skinned Chinese agent.
i have put all your names into this "Parties bound" clause of this consent decree here. so . . you can look forward to 50 years of groundwater monitoring. heh heh heh.
SCOTUS is taking it up to finally shut them up.
The most likely thing is he's actually a dark skinned Chinese agent.

Don't be so naive!
He's really Lrrrr of the planet Omicron Perseii 8 in disguise.

Okay. I've got the whole Birth Certificate thing down. Look at the KERNING!
They have an answer for everything.
1) Hawaii newspapers. The mom gets to Hawaii and knowing that she will need to have a legit Birth Certificate just sends a notice to the papers. Easy objection out of the way.
2) Note. It is a CERTIFICATE of LIVE BIRTH! NOT an Birth Certificate! If you bring a baby in they will just give you one! Easy. objection 2 down teh drain.
And then, from the comments at the Houston Cron:--- Read this!
Obama has not produced a copy of his original 1961 birth certificate. His campaign has produced a computer generated 2007 live birth certificate. It is not the same thing though. Obama's Kenyan grandmother claims she was present when Obama was born in Kenya. After she said this she was ordered by the Obama campaign not speak to the media again.
Mr. Philip Berg brought up some interesting facts about Obama.
Obama has not released any of his medical records. Mr. Berg believes that the reason is is because you will find Obama's birth place on his medical records.
Also, Obama has not released his college records. Mr. Berg believes you will find that Obama received foreign aid listed on his college records.
Mr. Berg wants Obama to do just one simple thing - produce a copy of his original birth certificate. Obama for some reason just won't produce it. I find this very strange.
I hope the US Supreme Court hears this. If they don't then they are not following the US Constitution. What do we have as a country when even the US Supreme Court doesn't follow the US Constitution?
They got us over a barrel! This is all about getting Arnold the Presidency. If they fix the rules for Obama, the Arnold will be the next President. The People LOVE him.
focus, : this thing is gonna be bigger than Bill Clinton's penis ...
But nothing is bigger than the Clenis!

A state commission led by Richard Ravitch, a former chairman of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, presented a wide-ranging rescue plan on Thursday for the region’s subways, buses and commuter railroads that includes a new “mobility tax” on payrolls in the region; tolls on the free East River and Harlem River bridges; a much smaller fare and toll increase than the cash-strapped authority has threatened; few service reductions; and improvements in bus service.
The plan — presented in a 19-page report [pdf] — would permit automatic, inflation-adjusted fare and toll increases every two years without public hearings, ending what Mr. Ravitch called a cyclical “political circus.” The plan would allow for a state takeover of the city-owned Harlem River and East River bridges, which have historically been free to drivers. The new tolls would be collected electronically, without toll booths.
i have put all your names into this "Parties bound" clause of this consent decree here.
That's nothing. I'm putting a classic Steve Simels catchphrase into this Prayer for Relief.
You get the idea that wingnuts have so few life experiences such as most people have...getting a driver's license, signing a lease, applying for a loan, joining the military. How else can you explain how pig shit ignorant they are.

a copy of his original 1961 birth certificate. His campaign has produced a computer generated 2007 live birth certificate. It is not the same thing though.,
the funny thing is . . they are exactly the same thing.
Can someone break down for me what the knuckledraggers' are arguing?
1. he was born in HI but it wasn't a state?
2. he wasn't born there but in Indonesia?
I shouldn't want to know but I do.
Dumbya doesn't care how many peons get laid off. He's sitting on piles of cash that his grandfather received from the Nazis for "services rendered."

Gromit -- so beautiful! Have a great time and take lots of pitchers to share with us!
Even they don't believe that he's not a citizen. This is their new Whitewater can opener. You start a simple investigation into one thing and pretty soon you've opened up a can of worms and meanwhile the president has to spend time and political capital dealing with it, so it hampers his ability to, you know, fix the country.
Ahh, but the Birth Certificate that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers...

As is the Queensboro. I can't even imagine what a toll on the Queensboro would do to rapidly gentrifying Long Island City - 'cuz you know there ain't no way in hell Bloomberg's putting the toll plaza on the Manhattan side.

As was pointed out here quite often, the more logical candidate for that position would have been McCain, the man who was in enemy hands for over 5 years and admits he broke down under torture....
v for virginia. Thanks! Here is part II.
Insiders say we can expect a massive real estate sell off in D.C and a boon in Dallas as The Powers that Be start selling their townhouses in DC to buy elegant mansions in Dallas. Even with these financial hard times don't expect corners to be cut! No sub-prime "McMansions" for this crowd. It's Mansions for everyone in Texas where Big is BIG and Americans are proud of their wealth. The DeBushification of D.C. should be complete by January 31.
(Party People SideNOTE!)
Let's hope The Prez gets his cleaning deposit back on the White House! Remember the lies about how the "W" keys were missing during the Clinton/Bush transition? Remember how no photos were produced as proof of the alleged missing "W" keys? Note to Obama team: Take photos to prove the "O" keys are missing! The media will NEVER run stories of vandalism in the White House unless there is proof! They don't want to be fooled again. After all, it's a crime to vandalize federal property and a sin to lie! Good thing the Obama's are Christians, like the Bushes, because we all know Christians don't lie. Of course the team could use the zero key-- if it isn't worn out from the previous staff typing up deficit numbers!
But why leave the Ranch? We can't tell you who told us this, but a little biddy told us,
"That place always smells like pig poo from the time it was a pig farm. George likes it because he can cover up his gas passing and he can blame it on the previous pigs if there wasn't a reporter handy to take the blame. [This person] said to him 'You buy a house Dallas by December or no dinner!"

Thanks Billy B. I guess they think that his American born 9 month pregnant mother would like to travel to a 3rd world country to deliver in the middle of her college semester.
What Hecate said.
As I said earlier, it's gonna be a lonnnnnnnnnng four years. Still not as long as the last four.

What about schools? School districts in California are slashing budgets, closing schools, reducing classes, firing teachers.
Isn't educating our kids a worthwhile infrastructure investment?
Getting that money flowing could happen pretty darn quickly, I bet.
Seems like win, win.
