Okay, this is weird.

Is Giuliani running for president of The 9/11 Winner Take All States?
I'm surprised they're letting us see the results, given that its in Vegas.
Is THIS the current thread?
I'm just glad we have our priorities right, and aren't wasting money on an economic stimulus package that would simply be wasted on lucky duckies!
Other than that, Rudy is a genius, and America's Mayor, and will ride 3000 corpses to a sure victory, or at least a decade's worth of weekends at Bernie's.
Carry on.
The result in Nevada is excellent news for Rudy Giuliani.
Donna Hanover got an annulment?
Mccain wins!!! No matter what!!
For some reason, Rudy believes that Florida's Cubans love him. He may be right, but are there enough of them?
Ha! Jude Law is trying a southern accent in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
Vermont's cubans are scared shitless of him.............
well.
can i repeat my bacon question?
is it safe to use 2-day-old drippings from an unrefrigerated jar? it's relatively cool in my kitchen this time of year...
I told everybody downstairs, this thread was upstairs again.
I can't keep track.
ina -- bacon drippings are generally fine unrefrigerated.
Its seems like both candidates are giving it 110 percent.
So its going to require more than 50% to win.

Which one is Carrot Face, again?
I'm reposting this bcz I was so amazed I'd missed just which years Obama said the ReThugs had the better ideas. No wonder Bill Clinton is kinda pissed about that. Those Newt ideas were so great? Those Unitary Executive ideas were so great during the part of the past 10 years under Dear Leader? Killing health care to try to keep the ReThugs in power (Bill Kristol)? Fighting environmentalism? Ignoring alternative energy? Soooooo cooooooool.
I just did the math on Obama saying the ReThugs had the better ideas over the last 10-15 years...
which means beginning 1993--Clinton's first year as president--or 1998--when the ReThugs' big idea was to impeach Bill Clinton.
And St. Ronnie's ideas were 20-30 years ago.
Obama might want to do that math again.
I had not realized, struck as I was by his accepting Reagan's ideas that the country was sick of all those things from the 60's and 70's, that his numbers actually aimed directly at Bill Clinton's presidency.
Wowser.
Lime Rickey: no way Rudy wins Florida. I'd take that to the bank.

New Proposed economic stimulus package: $1600 per household
Cost of Iraq War: $4100 per household.
Cost of the tax rebate: an estimated $145 billion.

The best way to deal with bacon drippings is to put about 1 inch of water in a glass and pour the heated grease in. The bits that can spoil will sink into the water and after refrigeration you can take the clean drippings off the top for use later.

About the stimulus package, I got kind of uncomfortable about it when Rangel was talking about it on Charlie Rose last night. Got the feeling the Dems felt getting BushBoy on board was more important than some other factors, such as getting most of the money to poorest, worst hit citizens.

And was there a crock of some kind on the stove into which bacon drippings, and ONLY bacon drippings, were poured? 
We have one, actually, but we don't use them for anything. In fact since we switched to the pathetic turkey bacon, we hardly have anything to drain. *sob!*

Well, iirc, bacon dripping were used for lots of things that then expensive butter might be used for today. And olive oil was not common in the Midwest where I come from. Alos, lard was lard--when did the Crisco version become common? Not as flavorful as bacon drippings.
I can't recall if the grease poured through a sieve or something to get the bacon bits out.
In the second half we can only hope that Obama eliminates the turnovers.

I become convinced that my mother's family came from esoteric portion of the south where frying did not take place except occasionally involving chickens and massive amounts of fresh vegetables were provided regularly.

That sucks. Damn I'm sorry to hear that.
An Ivy League University did a study on United Way giving back in the late 80's or early 90's. They found that if people were forced to give to United Way, they begrudgingly did. But when they opened the field to the environmental coalition, health org coalition, and more choices beyond United Way, total and average gifts went way up, even to United Way.

"better ideas"
Where is the "better ideas" line coming from. Otherwise, what he is saying is that they have been setting the agenda and making proposals and the Democrats have been weakly playing defense. And that is fact.
Senator Hillary Clinton: 50.22%
Senator Barack Obama: 44.39%
Senator John Edwards: 5.06%
Uncommitted: 0.26%
Congressman Dennis Kucinich: 0.07%
Senator Mike Gravel: 0%
46.57% reporting
Only 2 counties are 100% in. Several are less than 50%. Of course the biggest will be last.
...MSNBC just said that their entrance polls - showing big Clinton win - didn't include the strip locations. FYI
Well, that's where all the illegal, advantaged, unfair voting is going on. So it's right it should be ignored.
Bill told me so.
Obama is correct. The GOPerfucks were great at selling their talking points. Reagan was the second coming.
He had better be hitting hard on how it all worked out for us.
'm going to owe the IRS around $37,000.
Don't sound so smart now, huh college boy?
The tax rebate has to be paid back?
It's not a rebate so much as an advance. So anyone who can afford to do so could wisely park the money in some interest-bearing vehicle and walk away with a tiny bit after paying taxes.
Think of it as bailing out the banks in $800 increments.
Thanks Auntie GWPDA. I'll make a note of it.

But United Farmworkers' Union co-founder Dolores Huerta went further, accusing the Culinary Workers Union of intimidating Clinton supporters and keeping them away from the caucuses. Union leaders are telling Clinton backers if they don't vote for Obama, "they won't get transportation, they will be fired," Huerta said. She also argued that Clinton has a "cultural, political and social relationship with the Latino community, which Senator Obama does not have." Latinos call Clinton "Hilaria," Huerta said, adding derisively that they call Sen. Obama "Como se llama?" (as in "What's his name?")...

Well if people change the words, I think it's kind of hard to get the meaning. Inserting "better", for example, is basically lying.
“It’s hard to take Hillary Clinton’s latest attack seriously when she’s the one who supported George Bush’s war in Iraq, the most damaging Republican idea of our generation. While others were triangulating and poll-testing their positions, Senator Obama has been fighting for progressive ideals for over two decades."

It was the compressor that did it, wasn't it?
In all seriousness, it was the clearance section.
Poor kids making eight bucks an hour probably aren't gonna have a lot vested in what you buy...and I don't blame them a bit. They're fucking sick of living with their parents.
Wow...I'm all over the place. 
A Release out from the McCain campaign South Carolina State Director Buzz Jacobs ...
When it is done to Dems in FL and OH it is no biggie. When a GOP voter anywhere is inconvenienced, you can be sure there will be hearings about the incidents and accidents, hints and allegations.
I recall something about Poppy changing everyone's withholding so it seemed like you were getting more money, but you still owed it the following year.
The difference BushCo and the Dems change the tax code so that this time we owe it back the next year WITH INTEREST.
But Hecate, have you peeled the grapes yet?

Word. There was not a peep out of McCain about what happened to African American voters in Ohio three years ago. He can eat shit and die.
e, have you peeled the grapes yet?
Shhhhhh! Don't suggest that!

A paper clip works well for deseeding grapes.

So I'm not only borrowing from myself, I'm screwing myself too? [Insert joke here]

yup, his idea of flattening the with-holding returns struck me as tone deaf to working stiff reality.
He couldn't know how many people count it as savings and use it towards purchase of the big ticket items like new appliances or an auto downpayment.
He also started to super-tax restaurant wages and tips and he started to tax the free classes offered to university employees.
No fucking taxes my ass.
The State (Columbia SC newspaper) reported that voters were told to scrawl their choice on napkins, paper towels, envelopes, whatever & stuff the votes in a box.
I was making a joke, I think. It wouldn't surprise me one bit, though.
The brilliance of the Thompson and Giuliani strategies is breathtaking.

52, 44, 4 for Edwards?
CNN does know there are other news worthy things happening in the world, right?

Where ever there's a white woman kidnapped by a shark, we'll be there.

And, you know, the Republican approach, I think, has played itself out. I think it’s fair to say the Republicans were the party of ideas for a pretty long chunk of time there over the last ten, fifteen years, in the sense that they were challenging conventional wisdom." Obama
Is this what you mean? I've been looking for a full transcript of Obama's interview but haven't found one yet. Do you have link for one?
Senator Hillary Clinton: 50.37%
Senator Barack Obama: 45.01%
Senator John Edwards: 4.36%
Uncommitted: 0.21%
Congressman Dennis Kucinich: 0.05%
Senator Mike Gravel: 0%
71.3% reporting
Sheets!

Not if it ain't a missing white woman.
is anyone else having trouble with Hell-O-Scam reloading comments in the wrong place?
I am a bit stunned that Edwards didn't do better--he's the real union booster. Wow.
Being ignored by the MCM is not conducive to getting voters' attention....
Hillary sheets
yahoo news just ran Waxman getting results on WH emails investigation. Missing are emails that correspond in the time frame of Valerie Plame leak and the congressional probe of Iraqi intel scandal. Searching for the link now.
You're a dumbass, Edwards. If you had had your wife cut your hair, you wouldn't be in this fix.
Or you coulda used a barber without such a big fucking mouth.
hah, it's like riding a bike.
You never forget.
rumor is that rudy's tax cut will be around $6 trillion... wtf, over?
Little late for John to start worrying about crappy voting machines. What's he done about it in the Senate for the last 7 years? Fuck-all, that's what.
He did talk big a few years ago.
Committee Chairman John McCain, the Arizona Republican who mounted a spirited campaign against Bush in last year's early primary season -- and who is the Senate's champion of campaign finance reform -- said "large segments of the population were systematically shut out of the electoral process" in the last election.
If the problems experienced in 2000 are not corrected, McCain warned, rates or voter turnout may continue to drop, and younger voters will not have any confidence in system that they are already highly suspicious of.
And then did nothing.
Another win for Mittens!
fuck Nevada for player hating on Edwards
"...MSNBC just said that their entrance polls - showing big Clinton win - didn't include the strip locations. FYI"
and the lil ole whorehouses?
since strippers were not included, how about the bunny ranch?!?!
the horror
the horror
deep breath
the horror
I'm happy about Hillary's win in Nevada, Hope she'll beat Obama in big margin in South Carolina..
