Thank you, Teddy. Am feeling really good today, very enthusiastic, lots of creative energy liberated. I’m really, really excited about the blog and the future of our community and going to DC and all the opportunities that presents. Some days you just feel good about your life and this is one of them.

As long as we’re being light-hearted, here’s something that made me spew my soup. Cracked me up, that is.
It’s a product in the spring/summer catalog of one of those upscale “planner” companies, with expensive notebooks and binders. The product is a very pretty coffee mug, blue background with a Mercator-projection of green land masses. A cylindrical map of the earth.
The description reads:
“Global Warming Mug
Each mug is covered with a map of the world. When you pour in a hot beverage, the mug shows what happens when the world heats up and the oceans begin to rise… Land mass disappears before your very eyes! $12.95″
I don’t know about you, but when I go for that needed morning pick-me-up, there’s nothing I’d rather see than the catastrophic deterioration of our planet, “before my very eyes.”

Can you come up with one of these where Mr. Bush tries to link Al Qaida to Hussein over and over, then finishes with the punch line that he never actually said so… he knows… because… “I was very careful about that,” he said?

I may end the day sober, but a boy can dream.

Monica d’Arc will continue her mission….she had a personal conversation with Jesus and he told her to do what Karl said to do..? or,
Poor Karl is possessed, and I put holy oil on him after I did what he told me. He’s been purged of demons, so God told me to tell you to leave him alone.
There were many video clips at the link, but I gather you’re talking about the “Accu-Wrath Weather Report” on a Christian TV station, with Mahar as a Falwellesque weatherman. The Rapture occurs early in the week, with sunny skies. However, the end of the week, after Judgement, is all black, because “We’ll all be dead, anyway.”

Next, Bush was very careful in his prepared speeches, they have all been carefully parsed, Nada!!! Cheney, on the other hand is extremely complicit in the linkage of 911 and Saddam!!!

(Topeka, Kansas) Westboro Baptist Church says it intends to state a protest at the funeral of Rev. Jerry Falwell.
Falwell died died Tuesday at age 73. The funeral will be Tuesday at the Thomas Road Baptist Church, the church he founded, in Lynchburg, Virginia.
On its Web site, Westboro says it will “preach” outside the funeral “of the corpulent false prophet Jerry Falwell, who spent his entire life prophesying lies and false doctrines like ‘God loves everyone.’”
The church is run by the Rev. Fred Phelps (pictured) and its 70 members are made up mostly of Phelps’ relatives. Although it professes to be Baptist it is not affiliated with any national Baptist group.
In attacking Falwell the church says he “warmly praised Christ-rejecting Jews, pedophile-condoning Catholics, money-grubbing compromisers, practicing fags like Mel White (of Souflorce), and backsliders like Billy Graham and Robert Schuler, etc.”
Worked for Rodney Strong Winery in Windsor. Lived in SR. My pals in SR say traffic is even worse now than it was just five years back. I do miss Bodega and Jenner and the Redwoods etc.
Has everybody here this evening heard the Balrog news? New baby boy, Garrett Chandler. Doesn’t that sound kinda presidential? Eight pounds eleven ounces. Mom and baby fine. Balrog is Balrog.

Used to work in Larkspur. Lived in Mill Valley. Fond memos.
Did you go from RC to Larkspur and then to Okla? Or many other stops inbetween?
Went to Sacto., from OK., when I was in kindergarten and then to Rancho in ‘54. Went from Rancho to Gainesville Fl, to Mill Valley, to Santa Rosa, to Ft.Lauderdale, back to Rancho, back to OK. The whole trip started for me in OK. (In between spent time in Honduras, Roatan and San Pedro Sula.) I was born here in OK. By the Red River. All my people are here. With exception of my daughter who lives in La Jolla. More info than you ever wanted probably. ;0)
Is there is a better example of a story completely buried by a complicit media corps than ABC’s spiking the DCMadam story? Completely under the waves, as if it never happened. Nothing anywhere. Move along people, nothing to see here….
When is Tom DeLay finally going to trial?
The latest at info at TPM/GrandOldDocket has no trial date,
and my exhaustive 15 seconds on Google has come up dry.
I think with this DOJ the statue of Lady Justice must be revised.
Actually, I think Monica Goodling had it right (when, under Ashcroft, she allegedly proposed draping the nekkid sculpture in the lobby): just put a burkah (sp?) on Lady Justice, exposing only the eyes.

Ooh Ooh, can we please alter Step #2 such that a thumb is not used, but rather Lady Justice’s boob, whether draped or undraped, per the AG’s preference? I’m opposed to thumbs, yasee, but not to boobs. TYVM. :)

Only interesting thing is a writ of Habeas Corpus by Delay’s guys:
OKK @ 115,
It was not TMI. It was good to hear about you. Usually it’s your gutsy one-liners. Congrats on being on summer vacation. Good practice for retirement I always say.
Wasn’t it Miss Goodling who draped Lady Justice so that her boobies wouldn’t peep behind Ashcroft as he press-conferred?
It was a running joke for years in the press. In order to get the podium and the statue in the shot you’d need to be in the right front row, hold the camera at your feet and shoot upwards towards the podium ; )

No worries about the link. The HBO web site seems to want to make it difficult to view their videos. The videos at the link were identified only by date, with no title or hint as to content.
However, I found an HBO link, where some Maher videos are listed by title under their relevant segment. “The Face of Evil” is an “Opening Sketch.” Good stuff. As Maher’s cohost kept launching the coffee from her mug when “The face of evil” scowled or spoke, that seems a good bet to slow global warming (in a Global Warming Mug, anyway). Thanks for the tip.
Incidentally, the link also lists some New Rules that “You won’t see these on air. Each week, Bill Maher lays down a New Rule – exclusively for HBO.com users.” Not sure what being an HBO.com user entails, but it might be worthwhile…

(Topeka, Kansas) Westboro Baptist Church says it intends to state a protest at the funeral of Rev. Jerry Falwell.
Falwell died died Tuesday at age 73. The funeral will be Tuesday at the Thomas Road Baptist Church, the church he founded, in Lynchburg, Virginia.
On its Web site, Westboro says it will “preach” outside the funeral “of the corpulent false prophet Jerry Falwell, who spent his entire life prophesying lies and false doctrines like ‘God loves everyone.’”
The church is run by the Rev. Fred Phelps (pictured) and its 70 members are made up mostly of Phelps’ relatives. Although it professes to be Baptist it is not affiliated with any national Baptist group.
In attacking Falwell the church says he “warmly praised Christ-rejecting Jews, pedophile-condoning Catholics, money-grubbing compromisers, practicing fags like Mel White (of Souflorce), and backsliders like Billy Graham and Robert Schuler, etc.”
Thanks SF. Was hoping he might have told her good stuff about Lady Justice.

Worked for Rodney Strong Winery in Windsor. Lived in SR. My pals in SR say traffic is even worse now than it was just five years back. I do miss Bodega and Jenner and the Redwoods etc.
Lady Justice wears a blindfold. Gonzales took it off and gave her lasik surgery.
Has everybody here this evening heard the Balrog news? New baby boy, Garrett Chandler. Doesn’t that sound kinda presidential? Eight pounds eleven ounces. Mom and baby fine. Balrog is Balrog.
Sonoma Rus,

And Ashcroft covered up her beautiful, nurturing breasts.
Milan River @ 100
No, he bent her over and gave her something else unmentionable.
Albert Pike would be proud.
Got to be modest.

Yes, she did. Or at least that is what I read on them thar’ intertubes.

Ooh, last thread, and I’m all thumbs with Links, Suzanne has chewed me out for my Tech deficiencies!!!
Modest about the cover- up I mean.
Loo Hoo. @ 101

yes, yes read about baby Balrog earlier. Mucho Congratulations to all “involved”.
My youngest will be 18 this Thursday. I don’t have to change him anymore.

And then rented her out to Madame Palfrey.
Wasn’t it Miss Goodling who draped Lady Justice so that her boobies wouldn’t peep behind Ashcroft as he press-conferred?

Poetic Justice? Bwhahaha!!!! Oozing with delicious Irony!!! ;)
Where’s Palfry’s list?
Mary McCurnin @ 91
Went to Sacto., from OK., when I was in kindergarten and then to Rancho in ‘54. Went from Rancho to Gainesville Fl, to Mill Valley, to Santa Rosa, to Ft.Lauderdale, back to Rancho, back to OK. The whole trip started for me in OK. (In between spent time in Honduras, Roatan and San Pedro Sula.) I was born here in OK. By the Red River. All my people are here. With exception of my daughter who lives in La Jolla. More info than you ever wanted probably. ;0)
Milan River @ 100
I think with this DOJ the statue of Lady Justice must be revised.
* First, the blindfold has to be displaced so that one eye is exposed and looks directly at the scales.
* Second, the hand not holding the scale aloft has to be re-positioned so that the thumb hooks over the edge of one of the weighing pans, and
* Third, the weighing pans are no longer evenly balanced, but tilted in the direction of the thumbed pan.
That’s what this DOJ represents.

Is there is a better example of a story completely buried by a complicit media corps than ABC’s spiking the DCMadam story? Completely under the waves, as if it never happened. Nothing anywhere. Move along people, nothing to see here….

And Chico and Paradise too.
OT: Anybody on line tonight in Texas?
When is Tom DeLay finally going to trial?
The latest at info at TPM/GrandOldDocket has no trial date,
and my exhaustive 15 seconds on Google has come up dry.
Anybody know the scoop?
Well, hey, re-sculpt the Bill of Rights and re-sculpt the law. Why not The Lady too?.
Oh, THIS is a fine mess you’ve dealt, Miz Hamsher. NOW I’m gonna go ’round for days singing that damn song… :-)
Masterful. I particularly liked the echo-chamber with Condi on the right, Coulter on the left. Thanks. Really!

Actually, I think Monica Goodling had it right (when, under Ashcroft, she allegedly proposed draping the nekkid sculpture in the lobby): just put a burkah (sp?) on Lady Justice, exposing only the eyes.
Oklahoma kiddo @ 115
Our stories intersect at Rancho, Mill Valley were my first was conceived, Santa Rosa were I went to the JC. I also lived in San Francisco, New Orleans, Winston Salem, Gulfport, Sonoma, Knoxville, Memphis, Bloomsburg (PA), Novato, and Baton Rouge. Not in that order. I liked SF the best.

Hi all. Been away from the computer for a couple of weeks. Crazy work deadlines plus final :P Have only been able to lurk a few times.
WTF is up with the story I saw today about the new dem plan with no withdrawl timeline? Am I missing something here?

Must do! The little guy is absolutely beautiful. (And I’m no sap for newbies) Hope he’ll post some pics for everyone to see.
Burkah (sp?) on Lady Liberty. I want to cry.

Ooh Ooh, can we please alter Step #2 such that a thumb is not used, but rather Lady Justice’s boob, whether draped or undraped, per the AG’s preference? I’m opposed to thumbs, yasee, but not to boobs. TYVM. :)

It was not TMI. It was good to hear about you. Usually it’s your gutsy one-liners. Congrats on being on summer vacation. Good practice for retirement I always say.

Hey pups -
If you like industrial chemicals in the food you give to family and pets, the USDA has a present for you.
Fish, rice, and protein (whey) grown and raised with a whole slew of toxins will now be called “organic”.
This only matters if you try to avoid eating poison.
Currently the “organic” standard gives us far safer food, with far fewer breast cancer/ learning disorder/ infertility causing chemicals.
Under the Bushies, USDA’s “organic standards” board is stuffed with lobbyists from Big Junk Food.
Big surpise.
This new organic “standard” stinks so bad that even the USDA only allowed seven days of comments.
Industrial Food and the USDA have worked on the loopholes for the last five years.
Tuesday, May 22 is the USDA’s deadline for comments.
5 PM Eastern.
Less than 21 hours.
To oppose putting toxic gunk in your food, please click here.
To see an earlier rant, click here.
The Organic Consumers Association has the latest.
PS – Technically, chemical rice won’t be labelled “organic”.
Just the starch in the chemical rice will magically become “organic”.
Through the same magic the USDA uses to convert fish with pesticides, industrial waste, and heavy metals into “organic” fish oil.
For a bunch of fundies, the Bush crowd sure loves them their Harry Potter.
neurophius @ 135
Do fundies do rehab?

It was a running joke for years in the press. In order to get the podium and the statue in the shot you’d need to be in the right front row, hold the camera at your feet and shoot upwards towards the podium ; )

Nope.

No worries about the link. The HBO web site seems to want to make it difficult to view their videos. The videos at the link were identified only by date, with no title or hint as to content.
However, I found an HBO link, where some Maher videos are listed by title under their relevant segment. “The Face of Evil” is an “Opening Sketch.” Good stuff. As Maher’s cohost kept launching the coffee from her mug when “The face of evil” scowled or spoke, that seems a good bet to slow global warming (in a Global Warming Mug, anyway). Thanks for the tip.
Incidentally, the link also lists some New Rules that “You won’t see these on air. Each week, Bill Maher lays down a New Rule – exclusively for HBO.com users.” Not sure what being an HBO.com user entails, but it might be worthwhile…
Good night FDL. Giving my dog a bath.
