Cover Lehrer interview 1/11/2007 with Zbigniew Brzezinski
and another guy (sorry to be inept!?!)

Apologies if someone’s already alerted the blog. I just can’t stay around & do more now, dang.

Whole PBS program tonight had good highlights, as did others I dipped into. But Brzenzinski, WOW! and at his age (apologies, but I’m mid60 meself, & he’s makin’ more sense than the face-shooter-in-charge plus the tripleflip…)

The Rude Pundit: A Few Randomly Rude Thoughts About Last Night’s Big Speechification

An absolutely priceless line: “And he sounded like Stephen Hawking without the emotion.”

Can’t. Stop. Laughing. (And that’s not being mean to Stephen Hawking….)

God, that was awesome!

OT – 253-174, bill on stem cell research passes the House

This is ridiculous. “Surge”, “escalation”, whatever. This means that thousands of U.S. troops will surely get killed, while thousands more of innocent Iraqis will get caught in the middle. This madness – guess Bush figures, ‘what the heck, I’m going in less than two years, lets unleash hell’.

After a day of paintballing we’d all pile into ‘the canyon’ and shoo off all our leftover paintballs. No sides, just a free-for-all, shoot anybody. It ws fun. Trouble is, this guy’s got nukes.

Possible, but I want them there to NOT clap and to boo – as in the Mean Jean event.

I’d prefer not to be mistaken for the Thugs. Remaining seated in stony silence would more than do the job.

Yes, and all dressed in dead black, formal mourning garb. Maybe a picture or two of dead soldiers from their constituencies on their desks.

Someone might want to ask them if they really want to use that comparison, given what happened to Abe. (I mean no harm, NSA guy!)
