		<description>&lt;p&gt;WRT this on the Sunday morning thread,&lt;br /&gt;
snip&lt;br /&gt;
Face the Nation (CBS): Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.) and the Washington Post’s Jim VandeHei discuss Iraq, terrorism and politics.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Is it legally or morally wrong for Lieberman to continue with the (D-Conn) after his name?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love listening to people talk about sex who haven’t actually, you know, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nytimes.com/2006/08/20/weekinreview/20lizza.html?_r=1&amp;oref=slogin&amp;ref=weekinreview&amp;pagewanted=print&quot;&gt;had it&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My favorite sentence from that article:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;At a recent conference of political bloggers in Las Vegas, reporters more than once reminded one another to be discreet in their conversations because anything overheard was fair game for bloggers to post.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can smell the fear from here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(And may I just say it cracks me up that Jane and I quoted the very same sentence as the highlight.  Hee.)&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-253357&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;*ilson46201 @ 43 &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Rockefeller&quot;&gt;Vice-President Rockefeller’s &lt;/a&gt; death was spectacular too !&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;On January 26, 1979 Rockefeller suffered a heart attack and died. It is officially recorded that this occurred during sexual intercourse with his mistress and staff member Megan Marshak. An ambulance was not summoned for 1-2 hours following the heart attack, as his mistress first called a friend for assistance in hiding their activity, prior to requesting emergency medical assistance. Rockefeller died en route to the hospital. Nelson Rockefeller was cremated at the Ferncliff Cemetery in Hartsdale, New York, less than 18 hours after his death. Apparently, his ashes were scattered in Lower Manhattan just a few hours after the cremation was completed. The quickness of the process was believed to have been done to prevent an autopsy confirming the cause of death. Investigators looking into the delay in the reporting of his heart attack, also reviewed the circumstances of the timing of his disposal, but no charges were brought as a result.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;so homeboy had a heart attack, and his mistress waited 2 hours to call an ambulance ???&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kharma really is a bitch&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;and it’s getting bad up here in Canada, too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can say that again! Stephen Harper would be as bad as Bush if he had the toys, and he’s smarter, in a twisted sort of way.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Pul-eeze!  We are *lurkers*.  Readers are what newspapers have.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not any more you aren’t.  Hey there, fellow commenter.  Hope to hear from you often.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for the welcome, egregious. I would have posted sooner but it took a a while to figger out how to drive this ‘leave a reply’ thing.  Dang, my recipe for tomato ice cream got EPU’d from Christies Sat am recipe-swap thread.&lt;br /&gt;
You’ll be hearing more from me, but mainly I’m trying to learn how to make democracy work  since we have some *huge* problems in MI (my old home state) and it’s getting bad up here in Canada, too.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
