worse, i have to see a matinee.
worse, it's a community theater production of cats.
it probably won't be the best show i see this year.
dirk: well, there are churches like the 100 member church in a small town, that has no endowment and trouble buying oil, that hosts AA meetings and soupl kitchens. Then there are megachurches, complete with gated communities and real estate, media and other enterprises.

I missed the fun here because I promised to live blog in Detroit so can I say that Obama won, not that it means much in the greater scheme of the election.
Um... now Obama's fudging Biden's record a bit...

how about the giant megachurches that broadcast their services and are actively promoting a specific political candidate?
that's what the current issue is.

obama is having a ball today.
Yes, some do have lunch on Saturday, and I am preparing ours right now. It's a recipe for veal piccata that John and ZombieBlond McCain made on Rachel Ray's god-awful show. Excuse me, but I have to go grind up the Feen-A-Mint and Geritol tablets used to sprinkle over the top instead of Parmesan cheese. I've retitled the dish, tho. I now call it "McCain After Snubbing Letterman Au Gratin."

Libby,
Did you see McCain give Michelle the up-&-down look after the debate. You'd think by age 72 he'd have learned how to be a little more subtle with his ogling.
"Time and Again, Paul Newman on MSNBC."
i gotta get me a copy of slapshot.
Let me add a belated RIP Paul Newman. Very sad.
Bob Woodward's book gest reviewed in the TImes:
In a stinging epilogue, Woodward concludes: “For years, time and again, President Bush has displayed impatience, bravado and unsettling personal certainty about his decisions. The result has too often been impulsiveness and carelessness and, perhaps most troubling, a delayed reaction to realities and advice that run counter to his gut.”
SOME will deem this judgment obvious and long overdue.

fox news: mccain needed a big win, and he got at best a draw, maybe even a slight win for obama.
translation: obama buried him.

I missed that but I saw a photo of him giving a very warm look at Ms. Sarah. Which is more than I can say for his wife. He doesn't seem to make much eye contact with her either.
In fact has anyone else noticed that most of the photos of McCain hugging people is with guys? He's always hugging Holy Joe.
thanks for letting me know that obama was on live, plantsman.

Libby,
Oh well, you know how emotional those ethnic types are! 
"Doesnt' he look great?"
what gets me so frustrated is wankers like mathews that say obama is 'cool' and doesn't talk about middle class issues.
it's like they don't watch a single speech of his....they simply do not do their homework.
Hey, did you all know that Blinky McGee has traveled abroad often?
RIP, Paul Newman.

Apologies for the blogwhore, but over at Box Office I sing the praises of a way cool new DVD of horror movies from Fox, including one with the great J. Carroll Naish as a mad doctor who transforms an ape into a human. Oddly, enough it's called "Dr Renault's Secret," not "The George W Bush Story."

Really? oh snap, as the kids used to say. I think.
'Overrated' warnings
Democratic Rep. Pete Stark of Fremont, a former banker, said he probably will not support it, calling dire warnings of a credit meltdown "grossly overrated."
"I think we are being railroaded in the same manner we were to vote for Iraq," Stark said. "The banks of the Bay Area are in good shape, and they're bailing out Wall Street for $700 billion. It's irresponsible and reckless."
Stark said he has been working to get a third of that sum for universal health care, and that with $15 billion, all Californians could have health insurance.

Lindsey Graham is very jealous.
Pete Stark has been fighting for real health reform for decades. Some docs hate him, because he, among other things, thinks that when docs can profit by ordering tests from facilities they own, there's a moral hazard there.
He's also publicly acknowledged his agnosticism.
Interesting guy.
No, Paul Newman was straight -- Joanne Woodward is a beautiful woman.

Crack Van Debate #1 was the koolerest.
McCain says “My friends” and includes the weird and awkward forced smile that screams CHILD TOUCHER- 1 drink

It's hilariously predictable that a lot of teh media pundits once again have to pretend to follow along with the "McCain won" talking point from Rove, even after such a blowout and with all the public polls showing the exact opposite.
The only reason they cite? McCain seemed "manly". That's it -- that's all they have. Maybe they should just buy a gay hooker for a night instead of projecting so hard on to McGrampa.

And now...STEVE'S MOVIE REVIEWS!!!
"Eagle Eye"
Just what the world needs - "The Forbin Project" remade as a crappy Gen-Y action flick. I want to marry (euphemism) Michelle Monaghan, however.
"Choke"
Screwball raunch (I stole that line) and very funny, although it's creepy to see Joel Grey as a sex addict.
"Nights in Rodanthe"
Richard Gere and Diane Lane upstaged by a mudslide.
Crack Van Debate #1 was the koolerest.
I was having trouble keeping up. One of the most crowded vans so far
Hope Nell Newman keeps the Food line going.

Yeah I stopped going to the Balloon Farts page after he screamed unhinged in comments at me about Chimpy's Holy War and how I was a traitor for not supporting it.
He has since eaten crow and a lot of folks have forgiven him, but not me yet.

If it makes you feel any betteer, I suspect blogsnark is the only situation in which Linsdey and sex are or ever have been in the same place.
today gallup out...obama gains another point:
"These results, from Sept. 24-26, are almost entirely based on interviewing conducted before Friday night's first presidential debate. This suggests Obama was moving into a slightly better positioning as the two met in Mississippi to debate foreign policy matters and the economic crisis. The five percentage point lead for Obama in today's update is one of his best in recent weeks, just short of the six-point advantage he had in Sept. 17-19 polling."
also, rasputin today has him at a historical hi8gh and lead, 50-44.
Nancy Reagan, of course, hates McCain with a white hot passion.
She must detest hearing St. John invoking St. Ronnie.
That makes me happy, on some level.
he screamed unhinged in comments at me about Chimpy's Holy War and how I was a traitor for not supporting it.
Fuck Chimpy, his war and anyone who still supports him and his war.
Paul Newman was just a great person = what couldn't he do?. He made a film here in Montreal in the 70's (Altman's, Quintet) and every year since he's donated money to one of the city's more effective charities - I believe he's done this for all the cities he's found himself a part of.
I watch Slapshot whenever I get depressed - the guy Newman plays in that movie reminds me of my Dad.
According to David Broder, this means that McCain showed he was the alpha male, and Obama was the bow-and-scraping underling.
Funny, I thought when someone wouldn't look at you it meant they were chickenshit, and "alpha males" usually win staredowns.
