OT . . . .

As Wilford Brimley once said, “Wonderful thing; subpoenas.”

Seems the spector of Waxman’s hearings has Gonzales a wee bit nervous.

oh that was a good article! – another “no soup for you!” moment :)

(i just saw “absence of malice” again recently on tv. made back in the days when we saw quite a bit of justice portrayed in the movies)

Christy – Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3):

Corporations, and any community chest, fund, or foundation, organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, literary, or educational purposes, * * * no substantial part of the activities of which is carrying on propaganda, or otherwise attempting, to influence legislation (except as otherwise provided in subsection (h)), and which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office.

Thanks, Stephen. Any definition of “propaganda” in the code, T-regs or cases? And what exceptions does sub. (h) allow? If you’ve got the time/interest, email me:

Heritage sends out liberal bashing push poll to the wrong gal.

You always seem to know what’s needed, whether tears or spew; tho the combo is a bit to handle for us old biddies ‘n coots. I have to learn to swipe borrow a few more coasters from the local quickiemeal joints. *g*

Peanut has one very special mom.

Information regarding Scooter’s Aspen Group and PNAC leadership that can be easily found and read on the internets is damning evidence of one twisted sister. Scooter is an evil mastermind. He was not a coffee fetcher.

Exactly! I’ve been telling anyone who will listen that he is no low-level patsy – he’s one of the architects of PNAC and a bad, bad man. Cheesy rictus notwithstanding.

GOOD! We should all keep doing it. Letters to editor. Surveys. Call/write-in to MSM. Congress (yeah, sad, but they need reminders too, if only to yank em back a square or 2 so they realize their constituents know. oh my heavens! they know! EGAD!) Ubetcha! ;->

here’s a site someone posted the other day-written by juror #9

Thanks. I heard him on the telly enjoying hisownself, which is o.k., I guess; & I had noticed the “diary” at HuffPo – yep, same guy who made a bee-line for the cameras. hm-m-m…

What are juries coming to?! Thank heaven this one had at least some who were concentrated on the task at hand, totally. Dear Quickstep-Denis sounds rather self-absorbed & probably as if he’s already planning to foist a jury book on the world – ready or not. I’d like to be wrong, but his 1st few wds were more encouraging than his next many… I’m holding off before diving into his “diary”, sigh.

Hey Denis! If you’re out there. Try reading Marcy’s book before using the high-dive board; just a thot. I think it’s supposed to be o.k. now for you guys to read and listen to stuff.

What the fuck is the “convervative agenda?”

I suspect they will tell you it’s the opposite of the “gay agenda.” Whatever that is.

My gay tech buddie say, “Agenda? there’s an agenda and nobody told me? Now what do I do? Do I have to report somewhere to get my copy?”

We figure it has something to do with closet organization at 9:00 am and suiting fabric selections at 11:00 am, for lack of a better answer. Which begs the question again: what the hell is the “conservative agenda”?

Simply put the conservative agenda is f*cking over anybody that isn’t them, and if they can make more money while they do it, all the better.

Aren’t the vowel points the ones for ‘Elohim’ rather than ‘Adonai’?

Even more of a quibble I guess

I’m pretty sure that it’s “Adonai” and not “Elohim”. I remember reading about it in at least a couple places and it was “Adonai”. Now, the stuff I remember didn’t always actually happen, but I think this did, I do have a good memory for words and for stuff I’ve read. In addition, I’m pretty sure that “Elohim” means “God” and “Adonai” means “Lord” and I know that when you see “LORD” in the KJV, that indicates that the proper name of God was used. Also, if the vowel points for Adonai are a, o, a, they go into YHWH like this: YaHoWaH, giving a close approximation to “Jehovah”.

Actually, “Elohim” is plural, meaning “gods.” It’s a leftover from before the strict orthodox adherence to monotheism.

There’s a lady that i used to know.
Her name is Lola, she’s wiki-wiki…

It was the first hula I ever learned for a MayDay

(Wo)man, I haven’t thought about May Day in a long old time. My first year on the mainland, mid-April rolled around and nobody was even starting to think about May Day … I made the mistake of asking my classmates what was going to go on. I got tagged as a Hawaiian Cryptocommunist…

LOL! I *loved* May Day. It is a tradition that should be exported. Everyone should learn to hula.
