YeeHaw! Obama picked up seven delegates in Iowa.

There's a steady drip,drip,drip going on that could turn into a gusher. I won't be surprised if more superdelegates decide to pull the trigger and put HRC out of her misery sooner than later. And I won't be in any mood to listen to whining from her campaign about the SD's deciding 'early' and shortchanging her,
She had a whole mess of SD's on board with her before Obama even got to first base.

Seriously, the whole federal research funding situation is horrendous. I had a big NIH grant ($300k/yr for ten years) to develop antiviral technologies. Developed agents against HIV, hepatitis B, and SARS virus. Quit my previous administrative job to devote more time to the project, and then they cut off funding.

I'm lucky to still have one NIH grant (down from 3) for a very fundamental biochemistry project. But the feds have not been effective in investing in public health and bioweapons defense. Heck of a job, Georgie.

Flory, NIAID is still there, but has had some mission drift, and it's budget has been hit hard by a number of mandates that suck megabucks away into projects of dubious import (imho)

GravatarGromit - if you think NSF funding is deranged, you should try NEH funding.  All of the monies are going, as far as I can tell, to a handful of universities - more or less as permanent money transfers.  The requirements are almost entirely organisational, rather than project based.  The money has worked to create and then preserve very rigid terms of investigation - most of which are meaningless.  But then, we knew that day was coming the first time an NEH grant demanded that an historian explain what the 'outcomes' of a research project were - before the research project was begun.

(from a couple of threads down, on another topic entirely):

as it happens what we are doing now is abandoning horses, just like puppies and kitties. Ever since the last US plant processing horsemeat for food (pet or sale overseas) was closed, and the economy got tight enough, people who can't afford their horses any more have nother to do with them.

Can't rightly answer that one. I guess I just missed this place.


Gravatardoes anyone know wtf is up with the 'writer's strike' at orange satan?


Gravatarn order to further the cause of feminism, queer rights, and radical Islamist terror.

Two out of three ain't bad.


Gravatarfrom dead thread:

Nick: not everything docs do works. But most of it's tested, and works far more often than not. And naturopathy, homeopathy and others aren't nearly as soundly based in scientific and clinical investigation.

Now, I've been around long enough to have lived through a couple of major paradigm shifts. I was taught that duodenal ulcer disease results from hyperacidity, and that ulcer operations fail if acid production isn't sufficiently suppressed; I even taught medical students so. Then H. pylori infection was documented, fiberoptic gastroscopy became done almost casually, and surgery became close to unnecessary. All this happened because of scientific advance, and was adopted with breathtaking speed. Nothing, but nothing, in so-called 'alternative medicine' like this has ever happened.


GravatarHey Smalfish, I was wondering about you just the other day.


GravatarFour kids were trying to do some kind of "Punk'd" video at Target. They dressed themselves as employees and proceeded to bad mouth the store. Ouzo and I were not impressed and pretty much ratted them out. The first time we tell you we don't need help you get a pass. The second time we'll make you our bitches. Security was looking for them when we left. I wonder what will happen to them. I guess they'll have their film taken away.

You see the CodePink blog? Another "not guilty" verdict. They're doing pretty well.


GravatarWell, the Sleeper Cell Kenyan angle is surely bogus-- but a couple of times I've caught glimpses of Obama where his eyes do this bubbling oil-slick thing exactly like something I saw on the X-Files.

It'll be interesting to see whether I catch him at it again after my fever goes down.

This is the point I have been trying to make for weeks. Mrs Clinton's actions have become increasingly desperate and this is not conducive for harmony. Some like this as they perceive it as necessary for the toughness of the candidate. Others, like me, find it offensive.

GravatarPro-Hillary Writers "On Strike" At DailyKos
http:// marcambinder.theatlantic....on_strike_a.php
There's a movement afoot by prominent pro-Clinton diarists at Dailykos.com.

Writes Alegre, in what is now the featured post on the site, one of the founding sound boards of the Democratic netroots movements:

"We are going on strike and taking our writing elsewhere. When and if our beloved community is once more a focal point for Democratic election discussions, we will gladly return." Alegre has set up "The American Federation of Concerned Bloggers (AFCB)" and has enlisted at least three dozen bloggers.

He writes:

.....Daily Kos and Markos himself no longer adhere to this purpose of electing Democrats. Daily Kos has become an Obama community and discussion of other Democrats is not welcome. We Clinton supporters are continually attacked and even threatened. The atmosphere has become so poisonous that we could do nothing else but take our discussions elsewhere. Places like MyDD.com where Clinton and Obama supporters chat without name calling. Heated discussions sometimes, but we tend to stay respectful of our fellow Democrat's opinions. Our post is currently up on the Recommended List so we must have tapped into something a lot of others have been feeling for quite some time.

The post has generated more than 1100 comments, many of them supportive. ( Finally Someone Fingers the Bolsheviks) Some of them are not. (Not I Clinton has tarnished the word progressive.)

Gravatar best impersonation of Chester on "Gunsmoke"

O best beloved Prior, I cannot be at e'Con but hope to some day get
to talk to you long enough to find out such earthshaking matters as
what your monastery does in the way of providing cash income, and what
monks do at mandatory "recreation" times. I picture squat thrusts and
jumping jacks with people in robes rather than the sort of gym uniforms
mandatory in my time. In jr. high i mean, never having done time in a
monastery myself.

They lowered their counter to $10k above our initial bid and we said OK. What's another ten grand on top of 825 grand? We still got the place for $38,000 less than their ask, which was the third time they had listed the place at successively lower prices. I'm satisfied. Now let's see if we can get thru escrow....

GravatarBoth open primaries and having the primary be manipulated by state legislators of the other party are just really bad. Maybe someday the Democratic party will learn to be less hapless.

But I guess that's what happens when you're the good guys. They always get their asses kicked through the first two thirds of the movie...


GravatarElias,

In 2004, the Tribune endorsed President Bush for re-election, a decision consistent with its unwavering support for the Republican Party (it has not endorsed the Democratic Nominee for President since 1872, when it backed Horace Greeley, a former Republican Party newspaper editor[7]). It has endorsed Democrats for lesser offices, including recent endorsements of Bill Foster, Barack Obama for the Senate and Democrat Melissa Bean, who defeated Philip Crane, the House of Representatives' longest-serving Republican. The Tribune also reported on the scandals surrounding Illinois governor George Ryan (a Republican) during Ryan's previous term as Secretary of State. The Tribune endorsed Ryan for Governor despite this reporting.

The Tribune has remained economically conservative, being widely skeptical of increasing the minimum wage and entitlement spending. Although the Tribune has criticized the Bush administration's record on civil liberties, the environment, and many portions of its foreign policy, it still supports his presidency while taking Democrats, such as Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, to task and calling for their removal from office.


GravatarDamn. What a great comeback win by the Wizards... I love watching that team.

Actually very thorough reporting. Rezko helped fundraise for Obama, (as he did multiple other candidates). Barack bought a house. Rezcos wife bought the adjacent lot. Rezco put up a fence. Barack bought the strip of land with the fence, paying Rezco what he paid for the land.

Rezco sold remaining land for profit. It is a nonstory.

You got a serious answer. Agonizing over whether 9/11 was an inside job is pointless and escapist. The official version of the story is more than bad enough, and the death toll in Iraq puts 9/11 in the shade.

GravatarCorrea to Bush: Send troops or shut up


In response to criticism that Ecuador harbors Colombian rebels, Ecuadorian President Correa has told Bush to either send troops or shut up.

"Mr Bush, bring over your soldiers, let your soldiers be the ones who get killed at the southern border with Colombia," Correa said two weeks after Bogota raided a Colombian rebel camp inside Ecuador killing a top rebel leader.

"Lets see if American citizens will accept such a tremendous barbarity. Otherwise, shut up and try to understand what's happening in Latin America," the Ecuadorian leader added.

Also Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Friday said Bush was clutching at straws in his criticism of Venezuela: "The head of the empire is getting desperate."

As to the possibility Venezuela may be included in a US list of states that sponsor terrorism, for its alleged links to the FARC, Chavez was a little more blunt: "Let them make that list and then stuff it in their ... pocket."

GravatarWaPo:

Sen. Barack Obama picked up seven more pledged delegates on Saturday as thousands of Iowans took part in county conventions, state Democratic officials said.

The delegates had been among the 14 won Jan. 3 by former senator John Edwards, who has since dropped out of the Democratic presidential race. Election-night projections showed Obama getting 16 delegates and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton 15.

With the other seven standing firm for Edwards at the county conventions, and one delegate still unallocated, Obama's camp claimed 23 delegates from Iowa to 14 for Clinton.

"This is a very significant improvement for us," Obama campaign manager David Plouffe told reporters of the Iowa result. "We both fought as hard as we could here."

Plouffe said Obama's gains included blue-collar counties where he had finished third in the January caucuses.

The Associated Press reported late Saturday that, in final counts from California's Feb. 5 primary, Clinton picked up two more pledged delegates, and Obama added five. The result gives Obama a national lead of 117 delegates over Clinton, the AP reported

GravatarBAGHDAD (AP) - The suicide bombers who have killed 10,000 people in Iraq, including hundreds of American troops, usually are alienated young men from large families who are desperate to stand out from the crowd and make their mark, according to a U.S. military study.

So they are like Friedman, Brooks and Kristol?

He's a troll, and it's all he's got.

Pretty much stupid by definition.

GravatarThe failure to learn from history is going to bite you (and unfortunately, all of us) rather hard. Much bad stuff on the horizon. A nation in denial.

You are of course correct, Curious. Blowback's gonna be a bitch, especially for the karmically-challenged who cherish but a dim understanding of how the law of cause and effect actually operates in their own lives, let alone everybody else's, universally.

To survive and become happy, we gotta find new and compassionate ways of taking better care of ourselves AND each other. Dialogue based on mutual respect comes immediately to mind...


GravatarOh, and Hippy Birdie, Hecate! May you grace us with many, many more!
