Who's got the key to the liquor cabinet?
Then there's David Bossie, already deep into a mudslinging campaign against Obama through a political organization called Citizens United. Bossie is planning a widespread DVD release of a documentary that will portray Obama as a "limousine, out-of-control leftist liberal … more liberal than [Vermont Sen.] Bernie Sanders, who is a socialist," Bossie tells NEWSWEEK. McCain has little leverage over Bossie, who has run ads attacking McCain as too liberal in the past.

The result was "a sharp wake-up call for Republicans," declared former GOP House Speaker Newt Gingrich. "The Republican brand has been so badly damaged that if the Republicans try to run an anti-Obama … anti-Reverend Wright campaign, they are simply going to fail," Gingrich wrote. "This model has already been tested with disastrous results."

In each of the eleven dimensions of the future, in every alternate Earth (except Earth X, where the wingnuts blew everything up in the 50's and the radioactive mutants haven't made it to the Age of machine tools and Tupperware), all of the posts on this site are awsome.
OH, glad you mentioned that, Gromit -- my Netflix queue is empty and i don't have any clues.
Suggestions? Stuff that's been out a year or so that I missed? Classics that I haven't seen?
Please read my mind.
I'm not surprised about that ,Halliburton news, watertiger.
I work for commercial litigation attorneys, and almost all our cases involve contracts with arbitration clauses. We've gotten the courts to invalidate them in any number of cases that shock the conscience a lot less than rape. There is plenty of case history.

Nope -- adding it, thanks.

And The Constant Gardener
If someone gave me the keys while dad was out of town I would through an epic kegger and invite all of the kids from other schools to come party. That way we could meet chicks from outside of the village.
V for V, Little Miss Sunshine is very funny.
watched Enchanted last night, a rather sweet and quite funny film.
Yeah, "The Constant Gardener" was good, too.
The outlook for the UK economy has got worse and the Bank of England must act to stop a major downturn, the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) has warned.
The current economic slowdown will be more prolonged than previously thought, it argued, with consumer spending remaining weak until the end of 2009.
The Bank of England must be more "pro-active" in countering the threat to growth and business prospects.
The Bank left interest rates on hold at 5% last week.

How many fathers will not get to see their little girls married because of George Bush? How many mothers spent this Mother's Day without their children because they were deployed to Iraq?
I haven't seen The Visitor, but heard good word-of-mouth on The Counterfeiters.
Well, I didn't get the keys so the early morning crowd will have to continue to rely on the kindness of Avedon & Molly.
Gromit, racymind saw it recently- she has something up on her blog right now about it, as a matter of fact.
this has got to be the best television series of all time, although it is more like 10 movies:
The Decalogue
it's a masterpiece!
Y'know, we've probably mentioned biofuels more than the SOB who started this ever envisioned.
I haven't seen The Visitor either-- but I understand that "Visitor Online" is well on its way to becoming a cult classic. 
Mitt Romney, who was beaten by McCain in the Republican nominating race, said that for all his soaring oratory, Obama could not be trusted with the world's most powerful job.
"He has not accomplished anything during his life, in terms of legislation or leading an enterprise or making a business work or a city work or a state work," the former Massachusetts governor told CNN.
"He really has very little experience and the presidency of the United States is not an internship," Romney said.
Of course, there's always the problem of FUTURE posting that turns out to be of a poor predictive nature.
Like the "they'll greet us with candy and flowers" crap that the NeoClowns were treating us to prior to the launch of the War Preznit's Magnum Opus.

"The Best of Youth" -- Italian miniseries.
Moliere was enjoyable, its about the early life of the playwriter and actor, albeit a ficition one, about the time before he became really famous and well not much is known, its kind of in the similar vein to Shakespeare in Love
Could just be chaos. Exciting!!
I'm frightened.
Hold me.

What I'd like to see, is Under The Same Moon. About this young boy who crosses the border from Mexico illegally, to try and find his mother in LA.
La Reine Margot also an interesting French film, very bloody and a fair bit of nudity
The Decalogue
Dekalog
(1987) NR
Krzysztof Kieslowski's award-winning cinematic masterpiece is a riveting, profound work of supreme daring and imagination. Using one of the Ten Commandments as a thematic springboard for each film in this collection, Kieslowski bucks the trend of action-based or psychological filmmaking, exploring the lives of ordinary people flailing through inner torments, hard decisions and shattering revelations.
As early as 1951, the CIA had a team of Future Posters assembled at Langley.
Their work is still classified, but there are rumors of an astoundingly high success rate.
Of course, in those days they could only Future Post to telegrams.
I think the case is in the federal court system.

"He really has very little experience and the presidency of the United States is not an internship," Romney said.
Earth to Mittens: George W. Bush has forever lowered the presidential bar. After him, it is impossible for anybody or anything to be unqualified to be president. That includes me, a major appliance, any of our trolls (except for Toby, who doesn't know the difference between three and soup), a planaria, or a Little Debbie Snack Cake.
All, in the post George W. Bush era, qualified to be president.
Yes, Atrios is handing the keys over to me. I am going to do a 5 day series on lutefisk.

then my job here is done.
Speaking of Harrys in one's pocket, years and years ago I had a fidgety and quite unconscious habit of occasionally thrusting my hand into my front pocket and, er, jingling the keys on my keyring.
I mean, they were in my pocket, so they didn't actually jingle. But it's bad enough to put this out there without having to write "fondling the keys on my keyring".
This being a pre-cubicle office environment, I was standing next to a co-worker's desk one day talking about something or other. And, bless her heart, she suddenly asked dryly, "What are you doin' over there? Playin' pocket pool?"
I was amused, but mortified; I truly wasn't aware that I'd been standing around groping inside my pants pocket. Tres unseemly!
It was an instant cure, BTW.

Mad Hot ballroom. It's a really beautiful, funny gripping story about kids learning to ballroom dance in New York public schools
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0438205/
Eleven-year-old New York City public school kids journey into the world of ballroom dancing and reveal pieces of themselves and their world along the way. Told from their candid, sometimes hilarious perspectives, these kids are transformed, from reluctant participants to determined competitors, from typical urban kids to "ladies and gentlemen," on their way to try to compete in the final citywide competition. Providing unique insight into the incredible cultural diversity that is New York City, this film profiles several kids from three schools (out of 60) at this dynamic age, when becoming that "cool" teenager vies for position with familiar innocence, while they learn the merengue, rumba, tango, the foxtrot and swing.

I note with some satisfaction (waste not; want not) that road kill - particularly the good stuff such as deer and racoon) has been disappearing quite rapidly since the inception of the GWB recession of late. I was driving home south of I-90 when I noticed a woman pulled up on the side of the road, hefting a road-killed deer into the bed of her pickup. I also was disappointed that I hadn't chanced on it first ... it's like sliding into first on a thread.
I got the keys.

That's not gonna happen... There's no oil in Myanmar, is there?
Uh oh.
According to 2006 figures from the Energy Information Administration, the data arm of the U.S. Department of Energy, Myanmar has approximately 150 million barrels of crude oil reserves, while its natural gas reserves are between 10 trillion cubic feet and 13 tcf. Although modest by the standards of Iran and Russia, Myanmar's natural gas reserves place it in league with countries such as Brazil and Syria.

I saw a Judge Judy segment involving a woman suing her sister for damaging the woman's car. The car had somehow become entangled with a DOA deer-- a female deer.
I liked the sister, a wild-looking down-home gal with a laconic twang. When Judge Judy asked what happened to the deer, the defendant replied with candid simplicity, "Ah ate it."
The defendant also mentioned that she'd offered her sister part of the deer in a show of good faith, but that her sister declined the offer. Sis, making a face, affirmed that this was so.
Surely there's a documentary somewhere about repurposed road kill... but I'll pass, thanks.
