So the only question left to ask is—what is the Post going to do about his repeated unethical conduct?
Look! Barack Obama opted out of public campaign funding! He broke a "solemn pledge'! Over there! OVER THERE!!!!!!
Certain teams seem to have peaked early, and others took a game or two to hit their stride. Russia seems to fall into the 2nd category this year, they played very well.
Three of the four "group leaders" are out, tomorrow it's Spain vs Italy, and if things continue this way, Italy may just win.

they just seem to bore their opponent
before I go - I noticed this tid-bit at the end of an article about ahmadenijad's claim that there was a plot to kidnap him - interesting bunch of players from the region getting together to chat is it not?
During his visit, Ahmadinejad did not stay in the heavily fortified Green Zone, where the Iraqi government and US Embassy are centered and where most visiting dignitaries reside. Instead, he stayed in a compound that includes the home of President Jalal Talabani, a Kurd, and Abdul-Aziz Al Hakim, head of Iraq's largest Shia party, both of whom have strong ties to Teheran, the security official said. His security was provided by members of the Shia Badr Movement, close to Al Hakim, and Kurdish peshmerga fighters, instead of army or police, the official said.
My favorites now might be the krauts. They play ugly, but they have a knaok of making it far.

I wanted to tell Hecate — tonight, the Saturday closest to the solstice, is the night they light fires up along the mountain ridges, forming chains of firelights all around the valley. It's very pretty.
The problem is this: guys like Broder and Woodward and Kurtz play on a public stage, by their own choosing. They go on the tube, they do books, they finagle fantastic salaries that most, more anonymous, newsroom people will never, ever see, but they think they don't answer to anyone. Because once they cross the public-figure line, no one can or will rein them in. These are not regular newspaper folks. These are created celebrities. I know a young reporter recently canned for having very preliminary job discussions with another newspaper that he was covering for his actual employer. He wasn't even allowed back in the building to collect his stuff. Very tight standards are applied to regular people, which is why most of us don't participate very much in civic life--there's a minefield of potential conflicts. The stars orbit in another universe.
Broder should have been fired years ago for making up fictitious interviews with fictitious diner dwellers.
Afternoon, kids.
JP
Happy, happy BD.
Well, I never! I have been snubbed! In perfect high school fashion I will get the key from the can of corned beef and ratchet down my self-esteem a notch or two. Hmmph!
[camelot spins on one foot, does a hair flip and storms out of the door, slamming it. Pictures fall off of the wall in the Eschaton comments thread house.]
ahmadenijad's claim that there was a plot to kidnap him
I have a feeling that anyone who kidnapped him...or Bush for that matter...would be paying someone to take him back.
A Boot Stamping on a Human Face...
...is OK, just so long as it's the left boot.
The villagers really love Broder.
The worst part is that they really do think he is a moderate. He can defend Nixon, trash Clinton, defend Bush. It doesn't affect their opinion at all.
Dean Broder is a centrist damn it, and pure as the driven snow.
Moonbats! I have many dead weeds
Camelot, you know I love you.
I'm trying to get Thers to take me to dinner, but he's dawdling.
Or, the internet is.
This is pretty interesting from the Harper's article:
Broder first told Howell, “I have never spoken to partisan gatherings in any role other than a journalist nor to an advocacy group that lobbies Congress or the federal government.” That turned out to be false, as Howell discovered, so Broder came back to say, “I am embarrassed by these mistakes and the embarrassment it has caused the paper.”
In short, they caught the ol' Dean in a barefaced lie.
And what will be the consequences?
(* crickets *)
Take her to dinner, lout!
Oh, and if you missed it: FoxNews does Science!
All of the old, and, by old, I mean 1967 Dark Shadows are on disk. I'll likely die happy.
Oh Molly, what kind of food.

Tell Thers that you will stop being fecund if you don't get fed. Tell him it's a biological girly thing.

GREAT story about what a jerk Michael Savage is.
To this day when I talk about a certain radio personality people who don't listen to him still say, "Oh isn't he that nice weatherman who works with foster kids?" THAT is the power of TV branding. THAT power still overcomes YEARS of his hateful comments on the radio. It is very interesting.
If it is on TV or written it has more identifying power. But I think that radio is a much more personal medium. On the other hand I think lots of people just don't want to believe the worst of people. They assume it is all a Stchick (sp)
Camelot, is it your birthday?
Happy Birthday if so, and if not, let us know...
Oh, I'm going to ql's!
I think we're just going to a diner that does decent dinners.
It is obvious, private insurance has failed in health care. But it is also failing in home insurance.
Hecate, tonight the mountain ridges are all lit up with fires, in honor of the solstice (they always do it on the Saturday), it's beautiful to behold.
Thanks, ql.
Though I'm not as needy as the post would show, I did find some odd sort of fun in writing it.
Dinner sounds yummy. (Yorkshire pudding and gravy would be good)
Tell Thers that you will stop being fecund if you don't get fed. Tell him it's a biological girly thing.

Happy ones to whomever is/are celebrating!
You know how about NO fees accepted, period. Travel reimbursement, sure. But I don't see any reason why it's somehow better for Broder to get paid to speak at the Sierra Club or Harvard Business School.
It's not like people wouldn't take the job if these rules applied. It's a no-brainer.
a comment from a winger blog demonstrates neatly just how enthusiastic the republican party is about mccain:
I dont like McCain much at all. However,you bet I'm voting for him.
There is no way that Marxist Nobama can be allowed to be the leader of the men and women in our Military.
And for those of you out there who are Republican/Conservative and have a thing against McCain you better get over it, and vote for him.
Obama cannot be allowed to win.
with enthusiasm like that, the republican party has a good chance of winning a few states in the south this fall...

No, no, not my birthday. I've always hated BDs and just when I started enjoying them, because I enjoy my life now, I realize that I don't need any more.
My snarky comment was in reference to telling Jeffraham Prestonian happy birthday. He is 45 today, I believe.

Since we have pretty much stopped eating red meat, we will be grilling boca burgers. But with lettuce, tomato, onion, mustard and mayo, I can't tell much difference. I am making my twice fried french fries though. They're in the freezer right now awaiting the second dipping in the peanut oil.

perverse no? - A long-legged white crane flits languidly through a paddy field as birdsong fills the air among the lush green hills. Welcome to possibly the most dangerous nature haven on the planet – the demilitarised zone separating South and North Korea.
But the biggest dangers are not the tigers reputed to roam there, or even the bears and leopards, but the millions of land mines and tank traps. In addition to the weaponry, North Korea's 1 million-man army faces the south's 600,000 troops, backed by 28,000 US ground troops, each side glaring theatrically at each other across the military demarcation line in Panmunjom at the 38th parallel.
Nonetheless, whilst political stability holds, foreign tourists – not Koreans - are being allowed to visit a small safe part of the zone, in Panmunjon, on bus trips from Seoul (there are no plans to clear the area of mines but estimates run to $1bn to do the job). The atmosphere is more Disneyland with a military twist than a potential flashpoint for a third world war, a mood reinforced by sale of rusty barbed wire in the tourist shop.
Environmentally, the demilitarized zone (DMZ) is unique. Nowhere else in the world has a patch of land that was worked by farmers for over 5,000 years suddenly been allowed to revert to a true state of nature. Ever since the 1953 armistice was signed - although not by the two Koreas - the strip of land, 2.4 miles wide and 155 miles long, has developed into a de facto nature reserve, untouched by human activity.

Mer. I used to LOVE the flame grilled Garden Burgers. To me they tasted BETTER than real hamburgers. It really made me sad when they reformulated them so that they tasted LESS like hamburgers. I wonder what the deal was.
"Our veggie burgers taste too much like burgers we are selling them like hotcakes! Make them taste MORE like veggies just to PUNISH the people who want their veggie burgers to taste like dead grilled cow!"
They wrote me back and said that they regretted I didn't like the new formulation.
I told them to keep an eye on the sales of the "new formulation" to see if they sales drop off or go up with the new taste and then consider going back to the original formulation.
Nobody listens to Ol' Spocko. Until it costs them money and then they are all, "We had no idea! Nobody told us! We were just taking a page from the New Coke successful model of retooling a brand!"
Either we have lurkers in interesting places or someone's using proxies in exotic lands to visit my homepage. (My tin foil hat has me leaning to the latter.)
Fuckin' A, Sir Atrios. Fuckin' A.
As I've written before, Democrats will regret embracing the expansion of executive power because a President Obama will find his administration undone by an "abuse of power" scandal. All of those powers which were necessary to prevent the instant destruction of the country will instantly become impeachable offenses. If you can't imagine how such a pivot can take place then you haven't been paying attention.
And to be honest, a rollback of domestic surveillance won't be sufficient to protect Obama from this. Bush has so irrevocably expanded the power of the Executive branch that there's no way Obama will be able to put things back where they were in 2000.
Nope. The GOP will find some way, somehow, to justify calls for impeaching Obama for doing something with the very same powers Bush abused. I've pretty much resigned myself to the idea.
I do need to do laundry before my big date, tonight, though.
Wait, do you walk, take seperate vehicles or what?
camelot: Wait, do you walk, take seperate vehicles or what?

For the past five decades, the battlefields of the DMZ, on which 4 million were killed or wounded, have returned to thick prairie and shrub in the west and rich green forests in the eastern mountain ranges.
Endangered plants and animals have thrived. The Asiatic black bear, leopard, Eurasian lynx, and Goral sheep have made a comeback, and perhaps even the very rare Amur tiger - which some US soldiers say has been captured on video by surveillance teams. Many migratory birds, including the white-naped and red-crowned cranes and the black-faced spoonbill have made their homes in the DMZ. Environmentalists say over 1,100 plant species and mammal species exist in this wildlife sanctuary.
But environmentalists worry over how long the DMZ will remain in its pristine state. Development is creeping right up to the barbed wire in the south, now the world's 13th largest economy. Deforestation has caused severe flooding to the north of the DMZ.

Fed up. Yep. And they the democrats will say, "We totally thought if we didn't impeach they would return the favor! I feel like Charlie Brown!"

I told my friend about this phenomena. She jokes that it is the responsibility of the "Little man who lives over the hill."
"What?" I ask.
"Whenever we find a product that we really REALLY like and it goes away we attribute it to "The Little Man who lives over the Hill" who has been listening to us rave and decides that we don't really deserve this product.

"Sorry, can't do that. Not a national security issue."
"But I'm on your Budget committee!"

I don't eat meat. I grew up eating meat. Many people I know eat meat. When dining outdoors or with others, sometimes fake meat is very convenient.
As NTodd said, when done well, I like it very much. Quorn also makes faux chicken cutlets and turkey roll, both of which IMO are very good wrt texture and taste. But I still don't have any interest in eating real fowl.
Frankly, the more fake meat people eat the less real meat they eat and that's better for everyone.
OTOH, I still don't know what I think about the possibility of growing cultured "real" meat that never came from an animal.
Oh, and from this a.m.

i suppose i'm bad, i enjoy eating meat
I still don't know what I think about the possibility of growing cultured "real" meat that never came from an animal.
Okay, that's a little too sci-fi for me.
If God had wanted you to be a vegetarian he would have given you a longer neck.
i enjoy my roast dinners too much
I stopped eating "red" meat about ten years ago. I'm perfectly happy with the substitutes...
Omnivore.
we get most of our meat from a local farmer my dad knows
sometimes its lamb, other times pork or beef

Fake meat is not murder.
No, but Boca's Del Vista burger doesn't look at all well.
Let's start by assuming that all acts of love are rituals of the Goddess and see where we get.
You should practice more of what you preach.
Soccer is for moms
Judging by the parents I saw today while watching three soccer games, I think thier needs to be parenting licenses.

Condit. Nah, I'm dubious about his story.
But I'm not against judge supervised legal wiretaps and Bill's inability to get to the bottom of e.g. obvious leaking of grand jury testimony by members of Starr's staff, was weak.
The republican abuse of power does not mean that Democrats should shackle themselves. If the "majority of the majority" rule applied in the House, the Fisa bill would have lost.
a fake meat roast dinner just would not be the same to me
i'd feel cheated
but thats just me

LOL. I meant, done good.
NTodd, I doubt you would understand the point it it were in your condom.
I like veggie sausage with a breakfast of eggs, coffee, orange juice and hash browns. But that is partly because that kind of breakfast screams for something like sausage, and any sausage is mostly flavoring, originally to mask the taste of what kind of meat you were eating.

It's nice to know one's feelings are reciprocated.
Have you ever watched sausage being made?
Yeah, I used to watch CSPAN-2 all day long...
When I went back to the mid west for an event we when to a famous steak house.
My sib said, "Spocko, if you aren't going to have a steak don't bother ordering."
I ordered a T-bone steak and then after I ate it I promptly died of a heart attack.
I showed HIM!
"Gasp! It. was. the. steak...
But. I. didn't. look un-manly.. or fold to male tauting... " were my last words.
I won! I was dead, but I won!

Oh, and lard.

I've watched a live pig be slaughtered. Why do you ask?
Chandra Levy. Ah yes, the seemingly interminable missing white woman story that was only pushed off the radar screen by 9/11.
Have you ever seen a grown man ride a horse?
Let's start by assuming that all acts of love and pleasure are rituals of the Goddess and see where we get. I'm holding out for about 2,100 years of this. Just to be fair.

Well, the Hebrews had much the same idea. It was Roman piety and ideas of social order that got Xianity screwed up when it crossed over from tribal to universal applications (I blame Augustine, but he was just trying to deflect blame from the Xians. That whole "fall of Rome" thing put everybody out of joint).
So if we can scratch "deserving" and go back to "whattaya got?", we might get somewhere.

He runs a rescue organization for abandoned Great Danes, IIRC.

Always make a point of after the well known posters. Use a female identity if the intended target is a woman.
Tell us what hypocrites we are.
Accuse us of group think.
Act as condecending as possible while pretending to be an intellectual.
Accuse the critics of being "obsessed" and of "stalking".
Good luck camelot. The 3yo let Kayla and Mexico out multiple times during our stay at Liberal Mountain, and they always were retrieved. She even apologized very sincerely and promised not to do that again, and followed through. After the 4th time.
