Gravatarso close!


GravatarNO WAY...that would truly be teh 2nd harmonic convergence: teh 1st one was schiavo


GravatarBut on the Bill Feingold show?

So they'll be able blame Russ Feingold for the whole scandal?

Gravatareven if this isn't true there is alwys the super tuber


GravatarD00d must be well-sculpted.


GravatarOne of my cow-orkers is busy cleaning out my office. I'll be unemployed come October 31! YIPPEEEEE!

Fortunately, there's a Wal-Mart right close to my home. Maybe I'm qualified to be a greeter. That'd be cool.


GravatarWhere does Jeff Gannon fit into all this?

...nnnnggggghhhh.


GravatarI wouldn't be surprised if the same guy's involved though -- um, "servicing" right-wing closet-job nutcases must involve some highly specialized skills and training. Not just any prostitute is qualified ...


GravatarNext he will claim to have fathered Anna Nicole Smith's and Britney's babies.

I don't know what to say about that... I just wanted to see it again.


Gravatardamn! dead threaded!

So he said "bring me the most honest conservative person you can find."

They then realized there were no honest conservatives.

So they went to their boss.

"Where's the honest conservative?" he asked.

"She's out back," they said. But she's doing something strange with ping pong balls.


GravatarMy kids are always going on about some rapper named Mike Jones. Then it morphs into Bob Dole.

MIKE JONES! MIKE JONES! BOB DOLE!

My kids are weird.


GravatarNow, if he would just fess up to service Rush and helping Man Coulter pass herself off as a woman...


GravatarAnd would you believe there are THREE books coming out about Anna Nicole Smith?


Gravatar"He may be your man, but he comes to see me sometimes."

- pioneer blues singer Lucille Hegamin, whose reissue CDs get the "parental advisory" sticker.


GravatarWho knows, maybe there is a very tight circle of prostitutes that service the GOP sex freaks. You know, "I got your name from a friend who recommends you highly..."


GravatarCraig's office said in response, "Mike Jones' allegations are completely false."

Christian evangelist Ted Haggard originally denied Jones' allegations of sexual relations in 2006.


...nice...


GravatarNo. Fucking. Way.


Gravatar"Bulldog Bill Feingold Show."


No relation.


Gravatarthis is a hopeful sign:

Kinnaman says non-Christians' biggest complaints about the faith are not immediately theological: Jesus and the Bible get relatively good marks. Rather, he sees resentment as focused on perceived Christian attitudes. Nine out of ten outsiders found Christians too "anti-homosexual," and nearly as many perceived it as "hypocritical" and "judgmental." Seventy-five percent found it "too involved in politics."

Not only has the decline in non-Christians' regard for Christianity been severe, but Barna results also show a rapid increase in the number of people describing themselves as non-Christian. One reason may be that the study used a stricter definition of "Christian" that applied to only 73% of Americans. Still, Kinnaman claims that however defined, the number of non-Christians is growing with each succeeding generation: His study found that 23% of Americans over 61 were non-Christians; 27% among people ages 42-60; and 40% among 16-29 year olds. Younger Christians, he concludes, are therefore likely to live in an environment where two out of every five of their peers is not a Christian.

Churchgoers of the same age share several of the non-Christians' complaints about Christianity. For instance, 80% of the Christians polled picked "anti-homosexual" as a negative adjective describing Christianity today. And the view of 85% of non-Christians aged 16-29 that present day Christianity is "hypocritical — saying one thing doing another," was, in fact, shared by 52% of Christians of the same age. Fifty percent found their own faith "too involved in politics." Forty-four percent found it "confusing."

GravatarWhat sucks about my office closing is I consider myself to be the most capable person here (among the rabble), but I'm the only one who wasn't offered the opportunity to work from home (out of six workers).

GravatarIf you ever attend a gathering of big-shot Republican men, and you see two or three of them off in a corner whispering to each other, they're probably comparing notes on gay hookers.

Haggard: "Well, Senator Craig, I can hook you up with a guy in Denver who's really good. A real buff guy. Good-looking guy. Really knows what he's doing. He'll sell you a little crystal meth if you just ask him. I've been to see him several times. I plan to go back. And he's very discreet. I think. Knock on wood."

Craig: "He sounds good. I'd like to follow up on this."

GravatarWhat is the origin of the name "Log Cabin Republicans"? That's always baffled me.


GravatarIn college, my anthropology professor mentioned there was a tribe in South American with one homosexual man in it.

He let us think about that a minute, and we realized that there had to be at least a second one, or how would you know?

But it was a cultural more: All the men in the tribe could get out their gay urges-- but only one of them would be the receiver. The other men would remain "hetero", and be free from social stigma.

I think we're seeing the same phenomenon here, in Republican culture.


GravatarAfter all, Larry Craig said quite emphatically that he isn't gay, and never has been gay.

I seem to recall Liberace saying the same thing--under oath, even.


GravatarHe's got a dowsing rod for Rethug closet cases.

What do you mean by "dowsing rod"?


GravatarSupport the Troops, Bitches!

If there's one word American soldiers are familiar with when it comes to their Iraqi counterparts, it's "ijaza" — which means vacation.

Iraqi soldiers get one week off for every two they work, while Americans get two weeks off a year.

Who am I forgetting (on the national level?)


GravatarWhat are the odds of this one random guy servicing both of them? I mean is he the only gay prostitute in the upper midwest?

Sex degrees of separation.


GravatarI don't believe this is true. After all, Larry Craig said quite emphatically that he isn't gay, and never has been gay.

Which is, on its face, the stupidest thing to say. It shows that the GOP really think "gay" means "acting a certain way" and not some inherent sexual proclivity. No wonder they're all so convinced being gay is a choice.

Larry Craig isn't gay because he doesn't dress fancy or go to Broadway musicals, never mind that he likes having sex with men. That's totally different.

In Ed Wood's classic semi-autobiographical film debut, Glen or Glenda, he has the announcer go out of his way to explain that, though Glenn/Ed loves to wear women's clothes, "Glenn is NOT a homosexual."

With just that emphasis.

Tried once to count how many times that was said during the movie and lost count after six.

Something tells me Republican Party bigwigs would identify strongly with that movie.

That kind of accusation?

seriously, from the way she looked during his presser i think she's known all along (unlike mrs mcgreavy or mrs vitter). so i don' feel sorry for her one bit. the kids - well, i personally have no issue with the kids and i suppose i feel bad for them.

Goodbye, GWOT

Seems the incoming chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Adm. Michael Mullen, has banned the use of the phrase "Global War on Terror" (GWOT) and has prohibited using it "in any future correspondence," according to a Sept. 27 e-mail from a Mullen aide.

Hmmm . . . Mullen probably doesn't remember that this issue came up two years ago because so many people then thought the term was inaccurate. It was catchy, though, one administration official said at the time.

Former defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld even tried out the "Global Struggle Against Violent Extremism" or GSAVE, which would have taken into account the changed nature of the battle against international terrorism.

Bush, at a White House meeting of senior officials, reportedly objected to the change, noting that no one had checked with him. It was still a war as far as he was concerned, he said. By July, Rumsfeld was back to using GWOT in his speeches.

No kidding, it was a misdemeanor. What he did was not as bad as DUI, which could kill people. Do Senators convicted of DUIs resign? No.

Of course, he's likely to lose his re-election, so he's a dead politician walking. But it shows what a scummy group the GOP are, they'll turn their backs on a sexual freak the second he's exposed.


Gravatar"I fail to see the difference, semantics I guess."

Everything I know about I learned from violentacres, so have no idea if it's true or not, but, briefly:

gay: has or wants a romantic relationship with another guy

queer: likes to smoke pipe, but not gay

trade: likes to have pipe smoked, but not queer or gay

What the news networks should do, of course, is get into a detailed categorization of these terms, with side stories on prison life, latino culture, south american native tribes like the yanomani (sp?), etc.

There's a certain amount in British literature of the period (and probably American, too) of homosocial/homoromantic liaisons, where two men could be intimate friends and yet not sexually involved.

I mean people go in and out of denial, fine. But that doesn't change the preference.

GravatarMcClatchy does a nice summary for hope:

Although Democrats in Congress have been powerless to halt or even slow the war, six developments have combined to produce growing resistance, even within some parts of Bush's own administration, to the president's unrelenting emphasis on staying the course in Iraq:

1. The Democratic takeover of the Senate and the House of Representatives last January.

2. Bush's choice of Gates to replace Rumsfeld, one of the main architects of the war. Gates was a member of the independent bipartisan Iraq Study Group, which called for the United States to reach out to Syria and Iran and "strongly urged" a drawdown in Iraq.

3. A shift, completed this week, in the military's top uniformed leadership from administration loyalists to officers who are more concerned about the growing strains on the military.

4. Mounting evidence, in a variety of official reports in recent weeks, that Iraqi forces won't be prepared to take over from American troops in significant numbers until late next year at the earliest, and that Iraqis have made little progress toward political reconciliation.

"Barring that, no amount of troops and no amount of time will make much of a difference," Joint Chiefs Chairman Mullen told the Senate Armed Services Committee.

5. Mounting evidence, most recently in a United Nations report, that the war against al Qaida and the Taliban in Afghanistan is faltering, in part because Iraq is tying down so many U.S. troops.

More forces are needed in Afghanistan, and "we can't send them because we're bogged down" in an "intractable civil war" in Iraq, Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis., said Wednesday.

6. Bush's low approval ratings and popular discontent with the Iraq war, which have prompted some legislators to reconsider their support for the president's policy as next year's elections approach.

'The families of the slain men, still unclear about what happened when their loved ones were killed, sued Blackwater USA "for wrongful death in the hope that their questions will be answered," the Associated Press reported in mid-June.
The lawsuit alleges that Blackwater sent the men on a job with inadequate equipment and protection.'

'Blackwater has assembled a high-profile well-connected legal team to combat the suit. They also filed a $10 million counterclaim.
Blackwater's legal dream team -- which once included Fred Fielding, now White House counsel -- includes Kenneth Starr, the special prosecutor who investigated the Monica Lewinsky and Whitewater scandals during the Clinton administration.'

Gravatar"WASHINGTON - President Bush defended his administration's methods of detaining and questioning terrorism suspects on Friday, saying both are successful and lawful.

"When we find somebody who may have information regarding a potential attack on America, you bet we're going to detain them, and you bet we're going to question them," he said during a hastily called Oval Office appearance. "The American people expect us to find out information, actionable intelligence so we can help protect them. That's our job."

Bush volunteered his thoughts on a report on two secret 2005 memos that authorized extreme interrogation tactics against terror suspects. "This government does not torture people," the president said."

Shorter version: yeah I torture. so who gives a fuck.

Published: 10/2/2007







WASHINGTON - The White House scoffed Tuesday at an Iranian university`s invitation to US President George W. Bush to address its campus, saying he was "not taking it too seriously."
"If Iran was a free and democratic society that allowed its people freedom of expression, and wasn`t pursuing nuclear weapons, and wasn`t advocating to destroy the country of Israel, the president might consider that invitation," said spokeswoman Dana Perino."

Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) (right) is one of the least progressive Democrats in Congress. He's been bending over backwards (no, Larry Craig, not literally) to appease Republicans in the old "can't we all just get along?" style, the style that demonstrably doesn't work. Okay, I call it "appeasement" and Thurman calls it "consensus build[ing]." Either way, it's a travesty.

Reagan’s Disciples Plan Relaunch Of Conservative Movement

Fed up with neocons, theocons and convict cons, a group of former aides to Ronald Reagan want to reanimate the Republican Party by reviving the organization that brought Reagan to power.

The revitalized Citizens For The Republic -- or CFTR -- has already secured $17 million in solid financial commitments, according to an official involved in raising money for the organization.

Craig Shirley, a Republican strategist and historian, has agreed to serve as chairman of the board. Others who will participate or who have agreed to raise money are Paul Laxalt, the former Nevada Senator and close Reagan friend; former Reagan attorney general Richard Allen; former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, and conservative activists Brent Bozell and Gary Bauer.

"It's pretty much a slap in the face," Anderson said. "I think it was a scheme to save money, personally. I think it was a leadership failure by the senior Washington leadership... once again failing the soldiers."

Anderson's orders, and the orders of 1,161 other Minnesota guard members, were written for 729 days.

Had they been written for 730 days, just one day more, the soldiers would receive those benefits to pay for school.

"Which would be allowing the soldiers an extra $500 to $800 a month," Anderson said.

GravatarDrunken Blackwater Shooter Went Quickly Back to Work

The Blackwater guard who drunkenly shot a bodyguard for Iraqi Vice President Adel Abdul Mehdi in December 2006 was back working for a Department of Defense contractor by February, CNN reported this morning.

And in a letter House oversight committee Chair Henry Waxman (D-CA) sent to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice today, he asks why. He suggests that the reason it was so easy for the guard, Andrew J. Moonen, to get back to work, was because the State Department didn't inform the Defense Department about what the ex-Blackwater employee did to get initially expelled from Iraq. Moonen returned to Kuwait in February, CNN reported, working for Defense Department contractor Combat Support Associates (CSA).

and then they rehire him? Sheesh!

from Waxman's letter:

This report that Mr. Moonen was allowed to return to the Middle East to work on another security contract for a different company just two months after the December 24 shooting raises obvious concerns about the actions of the State Department and Blackwater. It is hard to reconcile this development with the State Department’s claim that “We are scrupulous in terms of oversight and scrutiny not only of Blackwater but all of our contractors.”

The report also raises questions about several claims made at the hearing regarding steps taken to prevent re-employment of offenders. Blackwater Chairman Erik Prince testified that Blackwater “made sure his clearance was cancelled” so that Mr. Moonen would “never work in a clearance capacity for the U.S. government again.” Assistant Secretary Griffin testified that “[t]he DS HTP program office (in Washington) maintains records of personnel terminated for cause from the WPPS program in order to prevent them from re-entering the program with another contractor.” These steps were apparently insufficient to prevent Mr. Moonen from securing re-employment in the Iraq War.

GravatarMILAN, Mich. -- John D.R. Atchison, the federal prosecutor who was arrested in an Internet sex sting after he allegedly traveled to Michigan from Florida to have sex with a 5-year-old girl, hanged himself in a Michigan federal prison Friday morning.

Atchison, 53, of Pensacola, Fla., was put on suicide watch after he used a bed sheet in an attempted suicide in September.

Detroit police confirmed Atchison's suicide death at 10:14 a.m. Friday. They have not released any details.


GravatarOh, god, I don't know what to say to that.

I didn't know he was in prison here.


GravatarIt's mild here only 86F, but most any building and vehicle here has industrial strength cooling systems. In this house, I've got three; a heavy duty AC system, a swamp cooler and my latest experiment, which I'm running on now, a secondary swamp cooler, which cools the water at night via a fountain/sculpture, and now there is air running though pipes in the cistern the cooled water is kept in.

It's keeping things cool at this temp, but I've got to look at the data collected, to see what needs to be changed before next summer so that it can cool the house when daytime temps reach 110 or 115F.

GravatarFox News Poll Asks Respondents Whether They've Prayed For Bush
http://tpmelectioncentral.com/ 20...ay_for_bush.php
The new Fox News poll finds that Republicans are twice as likely than Democrats to have prayed for the President:

Republicans (74 percent) are twice as likely as Democrats (37 percent) to have included the president in their prayers, while just over half (52 percent) of independents have prayed for Bush.


Since we're on this topic, the real takeaway here may be that Dems are surprisingly magnanimous towards the President with their prayers. After all, in the same poll only 11% of Dems approved of his performance.

So, if 37% of Dems say they have prayed for Bush, that means that roughly one-forth of Dems disapprove of the President but have nonetheless prayed for him, anyway.

Either way, it's certainly kind of intriguing that Fox polled on whether people are praying for Bush in the first place.


GravatarUh, Mikey lives in Colorado not Idaho.

I'm sure Larry poled him but not as a constitutent.


GravatarA funny phrase, since the harmonic series DOESN'T converge.

Perhaps it refers to something else.


GravatarSallyh, that was very nice of Mlle.

GravatarI've prayed for Bush...to be removed from office.

Gravatar'Any FBI profiler or criminologist can and will tell you that serial killers often take souvenirs from their victims.... Such serial killers use these stolen items to relive their crimes.

We saw much the same thing at the end of Erik Prince’s “testimony” to Congress the day before yesterday. According to Dana Milbank’s column in yesterday’s Washington Post, Prince stood up at the end of his dog and pony show and pocketed the nameplate with his name on it.

This wasn’t the mere appropriation of a souvenir by a tourist, like picking a flower at the Washington Monument. It was intended to convey a message and it was this: Anything belonging to the government that isn’t fastened down by nails, Super-Glu or twelve inch-long sill bolts will be taken by me.'

Well, there's always the Rosie Ruiz "training" program...


Gravatarthe nominee for attorney general:

In the case of Mukasey, The Associated Press reported last month that the attorney general nominee had been assigned a security team of deputy marshals while he presided as a federal judge over a high-profile terror trial in the early 1990s in Manhattan. He kept the protections, code-named "Eagle Detail," until 2005 — nine years after the trial ended — at a cost of about $10,000 a day.

The detail was withdrawn shortly after deputy marshals protecting Mukasey and U.S. District Judge Kevin T. Duffy filed a grievance accusing the two jurists and their wives of assigning them valet-like chores. The Marshals Service assigns security details to about 250 judges and other court officers annually.

The agency has said most of the money was used to pay salaries and benefits for Mukasey's security detail and would have been spent whether they were assigned to protect the judge or someone else. The cost of protecting at least one other judge in the same Manhattan courthouse fell far short of what the government spent to protect Mukasey, according to an AP review of financial records.

GravatarTweety's comment clarified for the dense and forgetful:


Matthews' "Criminality" Comment: Chris Clarifies

TVNewser has obtained a portion of Chris Matthews' script from tonight's Hardball. Matthews will read the following copy during the 5pmET edition. It is his response to the criticism he's been receiving today over his remarks last night at the Hardball 10th anniversary party:

Finally, last night we had a great celebration here in Washington of ten years of Hardball. We celebrated the wonders of the First Amendment and our freedom of the press which Americans of all political stripes treasure.

I told the crowd that it hasn't always been easy these past ten years, that politicians don't like to be criticized, that in one case their efforts to silence critics, and to cover up those efforts, got a senior Cheney aide caught up in criminality, indeed, in a conviction for perjury and obstruction of justice.

As my hero Eric Severaid once noted, we cannot always be right on the facts, though we must try to be; we cannot always be fair, but we must try to be. But we must always be independent.
