Dear 'Diary' has brains and gore
the media is being harsh to Hillary Clinton
Ain't just the media
. . . but we've already restored unnecessary war and torture
what the Europeans learned after WWI was to avoid war situations that would lead to a stalemate with millions of dead soldiers.
hence WWII. result? millions of dead civilians, entire countries destroyed
what the Europeans learned from WWII is to avoid war at all costs
what the Americans learned from WWII is to fight on the side of "right" hence the objectification of Communists and any other enemies and all those military interventions in so many countries since WWII, including the Iraq War.
what will it take for the Americans to learn the same lesson as the Europeans?

not so much on his audience -- that is very low; but it's more that it's a self-reinforcing message among the chatterers invited on the program. they are desperate to stay in favor for the facetime, so they won't provide any counter to his piggishness. besides, the villagers all hate the clintons anyway, regardless of tweety's influence.

The reason given for shooting down the satellite is a fraud.
The true reason is that the Chinese have already demonstrated their ability to destroy a satellite in orbit last year. Since their success, none of the Neocons nor their loyal lapdogs in miltary leadership positions have been able to maintain erections. Their mistresses have been leaving them in droves.

I think this is not fair to Rabinowitz. I was listening to the interview, and it seemed to me that she was more ripping into Tweety for such a ridiculous statement, as many of us did. It wasn't so much dumping on either Clinton or Obama as on Matthews, or so it seemed to me.
The WSJ is not my favorite paper, but credit where credit is due.
The shameless gall being modeled down the runway is almost mind-boggling. "Even Jillette admits it's offensive." As if that absolves anything. Here's Jillette telling a self-described "offensive" joke, getting a huge laugh from it, then repeating it on his webcast and analyzing its reaction as if it were some sociopolitical wavelet--as if it he weren't coarsening the discourse but somehow conducting a valuable experiment in group dynamics. And then Dowd quotes it, frowning with disapproval not because the phrase "white bitch" is being slung against the junior Senator from New York but because it creates a sympathy backlash, humanizing someone whom Dowd has gone to such great pains to portray as inhuman, robotic, undefrosted.
Haters.

Yeah, but I used to love reading Kos, so i'm a bit fixated on their current stupidity.
This blog is HQ'd in the Eastern Time Zone, thus the centricity.
Upon reading some of Saint McCain's prior bad statements in the Senate, I'm reminded that Saint Cheney has never, ever, in the history of the entire universe told Pat Leahy to "fuck off and die".
Well, not exactly those words, mind you. If he'd said "and die" on top of what he did say, that would be uncivil.
Oprah is an egotistical pain in the ass, but she's not stupid.
One of the things I've learned over time is that organizations take on the character of the people who run/own them. If MSNBC is misogynistic, and it is, then it's coming from the top. Didn't Jack Welch used to be at the top there? I'm not sure what his involvement is but he still shows up frequently. Matthews, Russert et al practically slobber over him. Whoever is at the top of the org. chart is responsible. Not just in the-buck-stops-here sense. In the practical sense.

''I'm calling you a f------ jerk!'' he once retorted to Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley.
It's entirely possible that these folks deserved the tongue lashing in each instance.
I know if I was in the Senate I'd give McCain a run for his money in the Blue Streak Olympics.

John Aravosis is doing all he can to buck up Matthews' support on the internet.
Digby tore Tweety a new asshole yesterday, and in an update, expressed some mild disappointment at Aravosis and linked to his post. Aravosis then got all pissy at Digby because some trolls then posted racist homophobic bullshit at his site.

There are two noice things about the keyboard. First, it has a smaller footprint on my desk so I have more room to pile up shit. Second, it has a great feel, unlike the more recent G4 and G5 imac keyboards. Another great set of products from Apple. We at the same time bought a microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse so we can be couch potatoes and control streamed netflix movies on TV while ensconced on the sofa (netflix doesn't support streaming on macs). They work but even the packaging is garbage. And the keyboard looks like something I had with an IBM AT in 1985.

The air wars the U.S. is fighting have escalated dramatically over the past few years. In 2004, the Air Force dropped 371 bombs in Iraq and Afghanistan. Every year since then that number has increased. Last year, 5,019 bombs were dropped.

OMG. Th Neeleys from Memphis have a new cooking show on the Food Channel. I just went to read the reviews for one of the dishes they cooked today in an episode called "Courting Pat" and got this gem instead:
I haven't tried any of the recipes and they look good but it's kinda hard to get past the dialogue. I think they are a cute couple and would like to see more of them but in today's show when she was turning out the brownies onto a pan and referred to "STRIPPING" it was uncalled for. Also, when she was talking about the chicken she stated a way to a man's heart, mind and down there (pointing to her lower parts)- this is not necessary! This is a family show at 10:00 am on a Saturday. Please TONE it DOWN or you are going to loose viewers like myself who watch Food Network everyday. I do think you could have a fantastic show as you interact well together and the food looks good...just cut out the risky stuff and you'll have a winner!

Who are the people who gave Obama 130 Mill for this run? As you have stated, at least one is a rich muslim who lives in England. I pray sanity rules and we get a president who loves all Americans and who will bind this nation’s wounds.
As an aside–Oprah who loves to call Obama THE ONE and has turned her program into a propaganda machine for Obama has now gotten permission from the FCC to purchase the Discovery Channel. I’m sure there is no quid pro quo–but it is courious.
"I heard recently that FDR would ask listeners to take out their maps so they could follow his war reports"

Wow, those no-quarter commentators are wacko.
For soliciting Peace Corps members' and Fulbright scholars' assistance, Cooper has paid a price. Bolivian President Evo Morales has now declared him an "undesirable" person whose actions amount to an "attack" on Bolivia, and he has already been recalled to Washington D.C. As CrooksandLiars points out, just today, in a groundbreaking move, Bolivia filed espionage charges against Cooper. Cooper should have foreseen the firestorm that would likely ensue if his actions were made public. So why did Cooper feel it was appropriate to use Peace Corps volunteers and a Fulbright scholar for intel work? Maybe there is a precedent that the rest of us are not aware of. The Huffington Post points out that there was a four-month span between when Cooper met with the Peace Corps volunteers and when he approached van Schaick. Clearly this was not an isolated event.

-----
A law professor and associate professor of geography set out to create the most comprehensive map of U.S. payday lenders to date. What they found, to their surprise, was "a surprising relationship between populations of Christian conservatives and the proliferation of payday lenders." And it's not a side effect of a poor population that happens to be Christian, according to the authors: "Our research showed that the correlation between payday lenders and the political power of conservative Christians was stronger than the correlation between payday lenders and the proportion of a population living below the poverty line."

Richard | Homepage | 02.16.08 - 2:19 pm | #
My sense of Obama is that he is first, last, and always about his own self-aggrandizement.
I've researched his history pretty thoroughly. There's very little in the way of actual accomplishment, and his overriding principle seems to be to avoid sticking his neck out at all.
He seems quite disinterested in legislation and governing generally. My personal alarm bells went off when he started up the business about the need to reform Social Security. I wondered whether he was a GOP symp or a Russert panderer on the issue. I've since come to the conclusion that he's neither; he just didn't know anything about it, and thought it was a good "progressive" issue to bring up. He didn't understand that the victory over Bush on that issue was at least as much about stopping the Dems from cutting the program's throat with an alternative privatization proposal. After the uproar he shut down talk about it real fast. His policy proposals are either directly taken from his rivals or watered down versions of the same.
In his campaign appearances he goes on and on about his ability to unite the parties, but there's no evidence of this in practice whatsoever. There isn't a single instance during his three years in the Senate where he led the charge on a substantive bill and managed to sway the GOP into supporting it. If he started that chanting "Yes we can" nonsense in the Capitol, Mitch McConnell and the rest of the GOP would laugh their asses off.
I'll vote for him in November if it comes to it, largely because the judges he would pick would be infinitely preferable to McCain's choices. But I'm afraid he would be an extremely disengaged and ineffectual president. His place in history would be assured just by his getting there, and I think that's all he cares about.
Don't get me started on how creeped out I am by his campaign and supporters.

arsom, that's pretty harsh. I believe both Obama & Michelle are committed to moving the country forward in a more egalitarian manner. I think it would be mighty cool to have Michelle as the First Lady and Barack would learn pretty quickly that he won't be able to work too closely with the rethugs. He didn't get to this point in his life by being stupid. Hopefully, he won't have to with massive wins in both the Senate & House.
And I'm a Hillary supporter.
I stand behind the charter school/public school movement, because parents do deserve greater choice within the public school system to meet the unique needs of their children. Slowly but surely, we’re beginning to create schooling opportunities through the public school charter system-raising academic standards, empowering educators. When we look back on the 1990s, we will see that the charter school movement will be one of the ways we will have turned around the entire public school system.

Well, a 13% drop against the previous year's 60% increase - but while this means my property taxes next year will likely decrease - a wild anomaly - here's your direct effect of the bubble. That 13% or whatever it is affect on property tax is specifically affecting funding of schools, firehouses, cops, libraries, everything that property tax pays for. Which probably means services will be cut and employees dismissed, delays in repair, fabric decay, everything.

Black Commenter, Criticizing Obama, Causes Firestorm
Tavis Smiley, the bestselling author of the "Covenant With Black America," is in a world turned upside down. He said he's being "hammered," "barbecued," and is "catching hell" from black Americans for suggesting that Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) made a major mistake by declining to speak at the State of the Black Union event that Smiley plans to host next week in New Orleans.
"There's all this talk of hater, sellout and traitor," Smiley said to me in a telephone interview. Smiley even mentioned getting death threats, but wouldn't elaborate. He said his office has been flooded with angry e-mails. "I have family in Indianapolis. They are harassing my momma, harassing my brother. It's getting to be crazy," Smiley said.
http://blog.washingtonpost.com/t...ml?

Even the non-cult wapo writer gets in on the act:
"As the first black person to have a legitimate shot at a presidential nomination, defeating Sen. Hillary Clinton's rich campaign juggernaut, Obama is virtually a third civil rights movement, the manifestation of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream. His candidacy has produced a fervor in black America born of centuries of wanting. Nearly every black vote that Clinton thought was hers at the beginning of the race has been siphoned by Obama."
Of course you would expect that racists like the Clintons would try to stop "the manifestation of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream" from being president.

From lambert--
Bruce Ackerman and Oona Hathaway in WaPo today:
...the administration is still aiming for an agreement that moves far beyond the traditional scope of these limited military accords. We should not allow false advertising to serve as a cover for a constitutional fait accompli.
For example, the administration plans to exempt civilian contractors from prosecution under Iraqi laws. Military personnel also enjoy this exemption, but they can be court-martialed. These military tribunals have no jurisdiction over civilian contractors. Indeed, many of them will be immune from prosecution anywhere.
Oh, yeah, like all the Blackwater employees shooting up Iraqis--and ain't nuthin' nobody can do about it. Now this flaw is to become The Way It Is, if BushBoy gets his way.
And what gives BushCo the right to negotiate how civilians are covered under Iraqi law? Good catch, lambert.

Drizzle is light precipitation consisting of liquid water drops smaller than that of rain, and generally smaller than 0.5 mm (0.02 in.) in diameter. Drizzle is normally produced by low stratiform clouds and stratocumulus clouds. Precipitation rates due to drizzle are on the order of a millimeter per day or less at the ground. Owing to the small size of drizzle drops, under many circumstances drizzle largely evaporates before reaching the surface, and so may be undetected by observers on the ground.

While most drizzle has only a minor immediate impact upon humans, Freezing drizzle can lead to treacherous conditions. Freezing drizzle occurs when supercooled drizzle drops land on a surface whose temperature is below freezing. These drops immediately freeze upon impact leading to the buildup of sheet ice on the surface of roads, and very heavy accumulations of ice on power lines, both of which have major impacts.

Are Western scientists crazy to be dabbling in Chinese herbal medicine? Not if it holds the key to Alzheimer’s disease, says Kate Wighton
A jar of browny-green goo is all it took to end Dr Stephen Minger’s doubtsabout whether traditional Chinese medicine could teach anything to Western science. When a colleague walked into the leading stem cell scientist’s lab at King’s College London with a Chinese remedy that he believed could boost brain cell growth, and asked if he could test his theory on some neurons that Dr Minger had grown in his lab, he wasn’t keen.
“My first thought was ‘you’re not putting that on my cells’. But it turned out to be amazing stuff. It really stimulated the cells to grow; they grew like weeds,” recalls Dr Minger, the ponytailed scientist who has has been in the spotlight since 2003, when his team created the UK’s first lab-grown human embryonic stem cells. These are the “blank-slate” cells that have the power to turn into any cell of the body and may be key in producing more effective treatments for diseases such as diabetes and Parkinson’s.

Drizzle tends to be the most frequent form of precipitation over large areas of the worlds oceans, particularly in the colder regions of the subtropics. These regions are dominated by shallow marine stratocumulus and trade wind cumulus clouds, which exist entirely within the marine boundary layer. Despite the low rates of surface accumulation, it is becoming apparent that drizzle actually exerts a major influence over the cloud structure, coverage, and radiative properties in these regions. This has motivated scientists to design more sophisticated, sensitive instruments such as high frequency radars that can detect drizzle. These studies have shown that the quantity of drizzle is strongly linked to cloud morphology and tends to be associated with updrafts within the marine boundary layer. Increased amounts of drizzle tend to be found in marine clouds that form in clean airmasses that have low concentrations of cloud droplets. This interconnection between clouds and drizzle can be explored using high resolution numerical modeling such as large eddy simulation.

It has been hypothesized that increasing the amounts of particulates in the atmosphere through human activities may lead to a suppression of drizzle. According to this hypothesis, because drizzle can be an effective means of removing moisture from a cloud, its suppression could help to increase the thickness, coverage, and longevity of marine stratocumulus clouds. This would lead to increased cloud albedo on the regional to global scale, and a cooling of the planet. Estimates using complex global climate models suggest that this effect may be partially masking the effects of greenhouse gas increases on the global surface temperature. However, it is not clear that the representation of the chemical and physical processes needed to accurately simulate the interaction between aerosols, clouds, and drizzle in our current climate models is sufficient to fully understand the global impacts of changes in particulates.
Spinster is one of those words which was a factual description of what women had time to do before marriage: to spin all the thread out of which all the clothes were finally made.

Freezing drizzle is drizzle that freezes on contact with the ground or an object at or near the surface. Its METAR code is FZDZ. When such drops land, it creates an icy layer of glaze. Freezing drizzle alone does not generally result in significant ice accumulations due to its light, low-intensity nature.

we speak of "old maids" and spinsters and here comes the man who loves to use that term, NTodd.
Drizzle is formed in low level clouds, of the stratus type, when vertical motion is weak. It consists of relatively small drops, light in nature. Freezing drizzle generally occurs when drizzle forms in an airmass at below freezing temperatures but warmer than -10 oC (12 oF). At such a temperature, the water droplets stay supercool as there are few ice nuclei to change them to ice crystals. In winter arctic conditions, it can happen at even lower surface temperatures as the air is even cleaner.

Dew is water in the form of droplets that appears on thin, exposed objects in the morning or evening. As the exposed surface cools by radiating its heat, atmospheric moisture condenses at a rate greater than that of which it can evaporate, resulting in the formation of water droplets.
When temperatures are low enough, dew takes the form of ice; this form is called frost.

Hey there's only a few laps left in todays car race, why are you all here?
Because dew is related to the temperature of surfaces, in late summer it is formed most easily on surfaces which are not warmed by conducted heat from deep ground, such as: grass, leaves, railings, car roofs, and bridges.
Dew should not be confused with Guttation, which is the process by which plants release excess water from the tips of their leaves.
dirk, yes that one. Cute.

My thanks to res for pointing me to the NYT article.
I am afraid this is going to torpedo her, and I type as one who thinks she would prove a better president than Barack.
This "unitary executive" is bullshit, and anyone who cannot utter the words "I was wrong" is not necessarily someone I want to see in the office. Why not say, "I was lied to, and I voted on the basis of what I was told. I made a mistake believing that President Bush and his people were being honest about national security. They lied. I should not have believed them."
Even better, "They lied to Congress, which is a prima facie case for impeachment, and I will introduce a bill asking for a committee to consider articles of impeachment in the next week."

Terminal cuteness!
Water will condense into droplets depending on the temperature. The temperature at which droplets can form is called the Dew Point. When surface temperature drops, eventually reaching the dew point, atmospheric water vapor condenses to form small droplets on the surface. This process distinguishes dew from those hydrometeors (meteorological occurrences of water) which are formed directly in air cooling to its dew point (typically around condensation nuclei) such as fog or clouds. The thermodynamic principles of formation, however, are virtually the same.

"You really aren't doing Hillary any good here ya know.
The president's veto is equivalent to 66 senator's votes. The people elect a prez knowing that he gets to make appointments to SCOTUS and other places. Therefore, the congress critters do owe a certain deference to the executive. Will Hillary use signing statements to the same extent as w. Of course not.
qlª"
I'm point out that someone typing in 'here is what Hillary said' and then quoting a reporter quoting an 'unnamed source' is not that same as 'here is what Hillary said.'
Really doesn't matter to me if that does Hillary any good or not. Doing good for Hillary was not the intent. The intent was to set the record straight.

Heh. She usually says, "If I knew then what I know now ..." i.e., that she was being lied to.
In her defense, I doubt HRC can get away with calling for impeachment, though. It would have to be other Dems. Good luck with that.

Describing the process of wooing Taliban-linked elements away from the insurgency, he cited the example of a leader in Helmand named Mullah Mamuk, whose regional enemies told western forces in 2001 that he was a terrorist, leading to his appearing on a most wanted poster.
"So naturally Mamuk goes to the Taliban to feel safe and takes those men he commands who are loyal to him with him, shows Taliban commanders the poster and says 'It looks like I am now with you,' Semple said.
"The authorities simply got the wrong guy and drove him into the Taliban's hands. Now he is currently fighting against the British in Helmand but in my opinion local leaders like Mamuk can be won back over again." Semple advocated creating a "network of patronage" to lure men like Mamuk away from the Taliban.
"It's worth remembering there are an awful lot of Mullah Mamuks out there who can easily switch sides away from the Taliban and that is why I firmly believe that with good management you could break two-thirds of the insurgents away from those irreconcilables," he said. He added that some of those arrested and taken to Guantánamo Bay during the early period of the US-led invasion had switched sides to the Karzai government.

What'd I just say?
Several man-made devices such as antique, big stone piles in the Ukraine, medieval "dew ponds" in southern England, or volcanic stone covers on the fields of Lanzarote have been thought to be dew-catching devices, but could be shown to work on other principles. At present, the International Organization for Dew Utilization is working on effective, foil-based condensers for regions where rain or fog cannot cover water needs throughout the year. An interesting strategy for harvesting dew on large scale for drinking water was proposed in 1980.

Large scale dew harveting systems have been made by Indian Institute of Mangement, Ahmedabad, India [IIMA] at coastal semi arid region Kutch [western India]. These condensers can harvest more than 200 litres (on average)of dew water per night for about 90 nights in dew season [October-May.The research lab of IIMA at Kutch has successfully proven that dew can be supplementary source of water in coastal arid areas.
So I just read the article. Congress has always given deference to the executive in matters of foreign policy. That's all it talks about. It doesn't say anything about the unitary crap that w has claimed. Frankly, it makes me like her more.

Why do people need loaded guns in national parks?!!
WASHINGTON - An election-year dispute over whether to allow loaded guns in national parks is holding up a vote on a massive bill affecting public lands from coast to coast.
Democrats accuse Republicans of trying to score political points by injecting a "wedge" issue like gun rights into a noncontroversial bill.
Republicans counter that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is trying to protect the two leading Democratic candidates for president by shielding them from a politically difficult vote on an issue that many rural voters consider crucial.
Arizona Sen. John McCain, the leading Republican contender for president, is a co-sponsor of the amendment, which would allow gun owners to carry loaded, accessible firearms into national parks and wildlife refuges. Current regulations ban gun owners from carrying easy-to-reach firearms onto lands managed by the National Park Service and Fish and Wildlife Service

Figures Coburn's in on it.
Spokesmen for the two leading Democratic presidential contenders, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton and Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, declined repeated requests to comment.
The gun amendment is sponsored by Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., a longtime gun-rights advocate who has endorsed McCain. A spokesman for Coburn accused Reid, D-Nev., of bad faith in refusing to allow a vote on the issue, despite an earlier agreement between the two senators.

The man, 27-year-old former student ___________, was also wielding three handguns during Thursday's ambush inside a lecture hall.
Two of the weapons — the pump-action Remington shotgun and a Glock 9mm handgun — were purchased legally less than a week ago, on Feb. 9, authorities said. They were purchased in Champaign, where Mr. _______ was enrolled at the University of Illinois.
A spokesman for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms said the other two guns were also traced to the Champaign gun shop, but the ATF was still determining when Mr. ______ picked them up.
Not one mention of banning guns or the glorious 2nd ammendment which would really be glorious if you could actually take up arms and throw the murderer liars and theives out of office
