Oprah may be Obama's best hope

Scott Smith will be attending the hottest party of the year this afternoon: Oprah Winfrey's big bash for Barack Obama on her $50 million Montecito estate. The invitation for the garden party is so coveted, a Hollywood publicist trying to please her star clients asked Smith to name his price.
Smith, a San Francisco investment banker who wrote a $2,300 check to the Obama for President campaign to attend the fundraiser near Santa Barbara, turned down her offer to buy the ticket. He wasn't about to give up the chance to hobnob with the rich and famous.
isn't it illegal to buy back the tickets...what's up with that?
Okay, I'm off. Enjoy all.

Because opinions are like...well, you know, and everybody has one?
You are on to something here. This is what it might be: Each opinion must be represented equally. So if you have "moon is not green cheese" amply represented in evidence, you pick one person for that. The "moon is too green cheese" gets one, too. That is balance.
Then there is the first requirement of a pundit: to be original.
Actually, the real question is why I have a copy of the French Manual for Commanders of Infantry Platoons, 1917. I mean, it's kuhl, but I can't think how I came by it.
Oh well. Another one for the digital stack.

And such is the war in Iraq as seen through neocon lenses. Mistakes are always in the past. The current policy is always working. When the mistakes are being made, those who point out the mistakes are tarred as near-treasonous. Then, after another year or two of pointless, futile bloodshed, it's conceded that mistakes were made in the past. But now we're right on track. And the liberals, once again, just don't get it.
So many corners to turn, so little time!
From the link:
I was interested to see Charles Krauthammer concede today that important "strategic errors" were made in Iraq, "most important, eschewing a heavy footprint, not forcibly suppressing the early looting and letting Moqtada al-Sadr escape with his life in August 2004." Previous to this column, Krauthammer had only mentioned the looting once, in is June 13, 2003 "Hoaxes, Hype and Humiliation". The only point he made in the column was to argue that the story of the looting of Iraq's national museum had been initially overstated.
What really frosts me about columnists like Krauthammer and his ilk is that they say these absurd things over and over again and then conveniently forget that they said them in the first place. Then, when they say something contradictory years later, they must think that a simple Google search won't reveal their earlier statements ... or else they just forget that.
I question whether Broder, for example, is even aware that there's a way to research newspaper articles and columns more advanced than microfilm ...
"I don't care about your factual accuracy, all that matters is your support of bathroom upskirt cams"-Fred Hiatt
Then there is the first requirement of a pundit: to be original.
Echidne
Actually, I think it's just marketing. Krauthammer has name recognition, and readers expect him to be published until he dies, and maybe for awhile after that.
Kind of like Broder. Who really wants him to still be around? But we sort of expect him to keep bloviating until he's pushing up the daisies, so we're stuck.
I figure if I know who and where and basic plots, that'll be good enough.
No. It's not the plots, which were pretty basic even when old Will purloined them for his own uses. It's how he says things. You have to read him. Really. You have to.
The real question, of course, is why the Washington Post continues to publish such people.
Habit. They saw it in their youth, how the powers that be just kept trudging in the same ruts until they handed over the keys to their children. Now they tread paths deep into comfortable earth and dream whatever old men dream as they pass the keys on to their children, secure in the knowledge that the country will remain out of the hands of the DFHs and safely in the clutches of a proper American aristocracy.
Same reason Daniel Schorr is still on NPR: what else you gonna do with him? Treat him like Bob Edwards?
Daniel Schorr is an institution! An icon! Why, he was once black-listed by Nixon!
when they say something contradictory years later, they must think that a simple Google search won't reveal their earlier statements ... or else they just forget that.
No, they haven't forgotten. But they know that the great flock of sheep that is the American populace will not bother to notice or care.

Frankly, keeping up with the double plots of Lear, or Midsummer Night's Dream (a triple play! Three weddings and a marriage!), or Hamlet, or even the comedy about the fraternal twins both mistaken for each other (dammit! Lost the title!) can be enough work.

Earlier in the day, Bryan attended a custody hearing in circuit court in Pinellas County where he agreed not to have any contact with two of his adopted daughters, ages 12 and 15, whom he allegedly abused sexually. But before an investigation into the allegations could get off the ground, Bryan first resigned, then took his own life.

You read this thing, and it’s like he’s been sitting around reading lefty blogs, and he’s one of these childish people posting rants at the bottom the page, you know, Noam Chomsky and all this stuff.

The email question depends on what you want to do with it. For large lists and multiple mailings, I would recommend Pegasus. For just common usage, Thunderbird works fine.
I have used both and they both work well.

Just a comment on the general tendency to regard the Iraqi civil war as something less than an actual civil war: Those who grant that it is tend to see it as a "low-grade civil war" (e.g., David Brooks, News Hour 9/7/07) or to say that if the U.S. leaves, all-out civil war could break out (commentators too numerous to cite).
But if this is not an all-out Iraqi civil war right now, then what was the Civil War in the U.S.? Consider that the population of the U.S. in 1861 was very close to that of Iraq today (about 27.5 million) and that U.S. civil war casualties are typically put at 620,000 (with maximum estimates of 700,000). For Iraq, the Johns Hopkins study over a year ago put Iraqi casualties resulting from the war at 650,000, and recently, a year later at approximately 1,000,000. The study used the most reliable methodogy for estimating casualties in wartime, one generally considered the gold standard for such studies. Iraqi casualties as a percentage of the overall population thus exceed the percentage of casualties for the American Civil War, considered the bloodiest military conflict in U.S. history.
It's not that Iraq couldn't get worse, but what the hawks are warning would be a result of a U.S. withdrawal has happened already, quite obviously as a result of the U.S. invasion.
We need to get out now.
it's a good question, why does Krauthammer get published? Why do any of these people have lives?

I think what the surge needs is more cowbell.
I like the St Crispin's day speech from Henry V:
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition:
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.
Of course, had W been alive then, he'd have been a-bed in England -- probably with a cheap whore and an empty jug of ale.

I could be accused of anything, but the study itself concluded that these "excess deaths" were the result of the war. That means they're war casualties. If they were unrelated to the war, they could be considered something other than casualties.

Just going by every convention in television punditry, 90 percent of them should never have gotten a whiff of a chance to actually be on the air. That is, unless the actual criteria for judging who is and is not acceptable for a position as a tv pundit are in fact completely different from the ones stated. Krauthammer, with his perpetual sneer, is completely lacking in aesthetic value, intellectual worth, or charisma. Who determined he or Broder, or even the perpetually elitist George Will, should be given valuable air - time to Bloviate at will? Especially when they have proven to be dead wrong, over and over again? Must be the boards of directors, exercising editorial control over content, yet again. I don't care if they lied to your face and said anything different. It ain't the shoes.
My favorite team is who ever is beating up the browns this week.

' "Casualty" implies that they were all the victims of violence, and the fucktards will go after that and try to lose the real point, that the US invasion is responsible for these deaths, in the fog. That is my concern.'
Regarding what people will say, see Gore for the Assault on Reason. It's possible to be taken seriously in the U.S. media for just about any of the most inane drivel these days. But you don't honestly think that there were no American Civil War casualties resulting from contaminated water or diseases such as gangrene? No war deaths that didn't result from a bullet or a bomb?

Is there some law that says the same college teams have to be in the Top 20 every year?
from http://und.cstv.com/trads/nd-m-f...-m-fb-
name.html
One story suggests the moniker was born in 1899 with Notre Dame leading Northwestern 5-0 at halftime of a game in Evanston, Ill. The Wildcat fans supposedly began to chant, "Kill the Fighting Irish, kill the Fighting Irish," as the second half opened.
which doesn't answer the question, really, and is moreover a nasty swipe at Northwestern, as if they needed any further abuse.
as far as the name goes: Notre Dame's founder was a French priest who originally named the place "L’Université de Notre Dame du Lac". Never mind that South Bend is fifty miles or so from any lakes worth talking about.
Why is a place named "Notre Dame," which is, er, a french phrase, populated by Fighting Irish?
Who would be afraid of a team called the Fighting Virgins?

Leprechaun (from Wikipedia):
In Irish mythology, a leprechaun (Modern Irish: leipreachán) is a type of male faerie said to inhabit the island of Ireland. They are a class of "faerie folk" associated in Irish mythology and folklore, as with all faeries, with the Tuatha Dé Danann and other quasi-historical peoples said to have inhabited Ireland before the arrival of the Celts.
Leprechauns and other creatures of Irish mythology are often associated with "faerie forts" or "faerie rings" — often the sites of ancient (Celtic or pre-Celtic) earthworks or drumlins.

I was calmly watching TLC's "Flip This House" when this BS propaganda PSA came on the Tee Vee and I about choked on my beer.
You tax dollars at work. Cripes. It's so 1959.
A letter came today from the draft board.
With trembling hands, I read the questionnaire.
It asked me lots of things about my Mama, and Papa.
Now that ain't what I call exactly fair.
So I'm heading for the nearest foreign border.
Vancouver may be just my kind of town.
'Cause they don't need the kind of law and order.

Yeah, aren't leprechaun's pagan?
Blue Demons are presumably not very Christian either, but that didn't stop DePaul.
Oops! Over 140 years later, I mean.
Tell your kids you want them to wait 'til they're married to have sex. And talk with them early and often so they'll have a better chance at success.
What's wrong with this, other than the government advocating this? I wouldn't have a problem telling my daughter to wait. But ultimately, the decision is hers.
Do you really doubt how serious a civil war there is right now in Iraq?

No, but I don't believe in muddying the waters, either.
The real question, of course, is why the Washington Post continues to publish such people.
Because the Post has a mendacious editor who is in league with the mendacious GOP.
espn says that the last time michigan got beat this badly was by ohio state in 1968.
I am really Osama Bin Laden.

"No, but I don't believe in muddying the waters, either."
Seems a reasonable comparison to me. The best statistics we have indicate that this is no "low-grade civil war," nor that civil war is something that could result later. I don't think that's muddying the waters. It's an all-out civil war, and the best figures we have indicate that it's caused at least as much loss of human life as the American civil war, if not significantly more. I really don't think that's disputable, unless you want to argue with the study's statistics. Most arguments I've seen against them were on very shaky grounds.

Just read an article in tomorrow's NYT Magazine http://www.nytimes.com/pages/mag...zine/

This is someone we need to watch very carefully.

I have to side with JR. You are comparing apples and oranges. The roughly 650,000 deaths in the US Civil War are all military battle and military disease casualties (with a few military accidental deaths thrown in). No one knows the number of civilian deaths by disease, starvation, reprisals, etc. during the US Civil War.
I'm not doubting the statistics as they calculate non-direct-combat-related deaths, I'm just agreeing with JR that they are not the same thing and will presumably give any rightard you are arguing with wiggle room to dismiss your arguments.
It's an all-out civil war, and the best figures we have indicate that it's caused at least as much loss of human life as the American civil war, if not significantly more.
I wonder if that would still be the case were we not there. I recall at least one occasion on which I read that the only way we were able to stop the sunni and shia from killing each other was to kill both sides ourselves.
It's difficult to develop a comprehension of the situation over there when the press implicitly accepts the calculus of American lives being so much more valuable than Iraqi lives.

Bush advisers favor current war strategy
9 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - President Bush's top two military and political advisers on Iraq will warn Congress on Monday that making any significant changes to the current war strategy will jeopardize the limited security and political progress made so far, The Associated Press has learned.
U.S. Ambassador Ryan Crocker, who has been less forthcoming than Gen. David Petraeus in advance of his testimony, will join Petraeus in pushing for maintaining the U.S. troop surge, seeing it as the only viable option to prevent Iraq and the region from plunging into further chaos, U.S. officials said.
All pundits should be required to watch any show they are on --really watch it ...not be talking on the phone or texting...listen to the crap they are spewing
I wonder if the Greenspan's chuckle to themselves about the folks who got suckered by Alan's suggestion to jump into ARMs.
I doubt it. That would be irrationally exuberant.
I know it bespeaks a want of character in me, but I canNOT look at Andrea Mitchell without thinking, "my GOD, woman, get a decent plastic surgeon."
I mean, you get Greta in the right camera angle, and she's not offputting. Mitchell, though, is just painful to look at from any angle.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. I'm sure she's probably a lovely person.

Andrea Mitchell needs a new hairstylist, preferably one who does not hate her, well before she needs a new plastic surgeon (and she does need a new plastic surgeon). Also, wearing leather jackets, when you have leathery skin -- not such a good idea.

Gregory may be right in this case. Thompson was never noted to be a particularly hard-working senator, and I get the feeling he thinks the nomination is just going to drop into his lap.

Word of mouth is the best recommendation anyone can get and give. My business was built on that principal, it has not failed.
Maybe Fred Thompson thinks he is William McKinley and his wife is Mark Hanna...but it is David Gregory's job to report not scold...or make snarky remarks or repeat gossip because he is supposed to be a reporter of course
but of course you could say he does dance with the one that brung him

Coming up on BookTV/c-span2 at 8:59pm ET -After Words with John Nagl
09/05/2007 - 0:56
Nagl, John A. Lieutenant Colonel, U.S. Army
Naylor, Sean D. Senior Writer, News Service
Lt. Col. John Nagl talked about The U.S. Army/Marine Corps Counterinsurgency Field Manual, originally released as a government document in December 2006 and now published by the University of Chicago Press. Lt. Col. John Nagl, a veteran of both Opertation Desert Storm and the current war in Iraq, was a contributor to the book and its foreword. The book was prepared under the guidance of General David Petraeus who was currently leading the "surge" in Iraq and would report on the effectiveness of the strategy in the coming week. The guest interviewer was Sean Naylor, senior writer for Army Times and the author of Not a Good Day to Die: The Untold Story of Operation Anaconda.
Lieutenant Colonel Nagl also co-wrote Learning to Eat Soup with a Knife: Counterinsurgency Lessons from Malaya and Vietnam and wrote the foreword to a new edition of Instructions for American Servicemen in Iraq during World War II, both published by the University Of Chicago Press.

Nagl knows how far Petraeus has strayed, and I thought I heard him saying so on CNN or someplace earlier about active duty types speaking out - generals making same mistakes as in the Nam etc.

The Woodrow Wilson Center has as much to do with peace in our time, or the world being safe for democracy, as the Justice Department has to do with Justice.

FYI, The American premier of TORCHWOOD is at 9:00 PM Eastern on BBC America.
I've seen the original, unedited BBC UK version. It'll be amusing/interesting to see what got cut so as not to offend the delicate sensibilites of Americans.
For those that don't know, well, think of it like this. If the Doctor Who tv series had sex with the X-Files tv series, Torchwood is their bastard, sexually ambiguous offspring, who ran away and is now living in Wales.
Next season of Torchwood will be interesting indeed. Teh Exceedingly Hawt Martha Jones joins Torchwood for 3 episodes.

So, say that Broder or another Very Serious Person says tomorrow that Iraq will be at peace and all our troops will be out by January, 2009.
And say that in January, 2009, things are even worse than they are now (if that is scarcely possible.)
And finally, say that some enterprising person, using Google, Lexis or any other documentation, points out to the MSM that Broder or whoever has gotten it completely wrong, again.
Will this change in the slightest the high regard, fat salary, constant presence in the public eye etc. of the Very Serious Person?

Naomi Klein has written a book about "disaster capitalism" which is the method bushco and neoconservatives use to implement their corporatist and imperialist policies throughout the world. It's based on creating disaster such as the Iraq invasion and using disasters such as Katrina to advance their agenda of reaping great wealth through the suffering of much of the planet.

The work was done by James Overland, an oceanographer at NOAA’s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory in Seattle, and Muyin Wang, a meteorologist at NOAA’s Joint Institute for the Study of the Atmosphere and Ocean at the University of Washington in Seattle. It will be published Sept. 8 in Geophysical Research Letters, a publication of the American Geophysical Union.

I wish Trademark Dave or another of our creative sorts would design and produce a calendar, maybe an Advent-like one, with little treats behind each significant date. It might help keep me going.

They remain too scared to even back the majority of Americans because the GOPers control the message/media.

This is wrong on so many levels; it is unconstitutional, unfair, unrepresentative and unsafe.
If you want to send this message to Muslims everywhere; "the United States views the Global War on Terror as a new Crusade", you could not do better than to give the only sermon broadcast via Armed Forces Network radio to Dr. James Kennedy, whose views on Islam are prominently displayed on Coral Ridge Hour website;

SHE is my absolutely favorite actress of all time...have you ever seen IKWIG?
"You are comparing apples and oranges. The roughly 650,000 deaths in the US Civil War are all military battle and military disease casualties (with a few military accidental deaths thrown in). No one knows the number of civilian deaths by disease, starvation, reprisals, etc. during the US Civil War."
According to estimates, war-related civilian deaths may have reached 50,000. Add that to 620,000, and you still have a figure far below that for the Iraqi civil war, as estimated by the Johns Hopkins study.
Is there a terminology problem that is confusing people here? Is it the word "casualties"?
After all, the biggest difference between the American civil war and the Iraqi civil war is that civilians far outnumber military combatants as victims of the war in Iraq. The American Civil War took its toll mostly in battles among combattants, away from the civilian population.
In terms of the issue whether death by I.E.D.s or by contaminated water should be counted a "casualty," consider that most of the 620,000 Civil War deaths were the result of disease, not battle. Yet disease and battle fatalities alike are attributable to the war. (As is typically the case.)
We know that most of the victims of virtually all of the civil wars in the modern world are civilians.
So I'm not sure what the timidity is all about. Let's face it: Iraq is in the grips of an all-out civil war, which our best available figures indicate is as bad or worse than the American Civil War.
That, my friends, is a serious civil war, no matter how you want to count or discount the casualties.
This is especially relevant now that so many commentators on the "Petraeus report" warn that a civil war could develop if we left Iraq--as if it hadn't already as a result of our presence.
And if you think the war deaths would have occurred without our invasion, once again I refer you to the Johns Hopkins study. It shows that the deaths are due to the war and that they were not the pattern of life before the war.

To answer your question, no, the amount you make is not a measure of your worth. What I find interesting is that you have now discovered this, and you feel the need to announce this to everyone on this blog. Does it make you feel somehow superior to the rest of us here that you have to let us know what you are giving up to stop being.....morally culpable for my government's murder of hundreds of thousands of people and the waste of trillions of dollars. ....

The immigration issue is *so* typical of Rethugs. Fire up the mouthbreathers over a sector that helps runs the goddamned country.
Energy and ecology (remember that term?) are two business sectors in which the US's resources can really set the pace, and provide domestic jobs.

So I'm not sure what the timidity is all about. Let's face it: Iraq is in the grips of an all-out civil war, which our best available figures indicate is as bad or worse than the American Civil War.
Why this compulsion to compare Iraq to the US Civil War, a comparison that doesn't seem particularly apt? The US Civil War was basically a two-sided fight, while this is more of a four-sided killing spree -- Sunnis, Shias, Kurds, and US (with some Brit and other killing thrown in as spice). It's a clusterfuck occupation in the middle of a civil war, that was triggered by the clusterfuck occupation. You are losing me with the exact point you are trying to make.
