Driftglass has a 4 part vivesection of Bobo Brooks today that includes a great piece by Gilly and he has this to say about the comparison;

Go read the whole thing, it’s a masterpiece.

It is, indeed.

Be afraid, Brooksie! From Heaven’s heart, Gilly stabs at thee.

Re 102

CBS has the Giuliani and Kerik entity as Giuliani-Kerik, LLC.
Name changed after the unpleasantness to Giuliani Safety & Security.

Late to the thread, but might be worth remembering (and mentioning where appropriate) that Kerik not only became a senior officer in
Giuliani & Partners, but the two of them also formed Giuliani & Kerik, a security company, still existing, but the name’s been changed ;-)

I do have a link I can dig out if anyone wants.
Ya just don’t hear so much about the Giuliani & Kerik entity - hate to see that slip down the memory hole.

I can’t put in perspective all of the alleged racist stuff..but I think his anti-abortion stand is very clear. That is enough for me. I watched a teen-age girl die from septic shock caused by a “back alley” abortion in 1971. I would prefer if those days are not brought back.

i’m with you. but, i also recognize that our D senate majority leader is anti-abortion. as bad as i think that position is - it’s not something unique to paul.

An OT..Ruh Roh..Maybe the cookie is starting to crumble:

Things get worse for Rep. Don Young (R-AK). The feds are chasing Young for his ties to the corrupt oil company Veco (among other things), and he’s already blown $450,000 in campaign funds on criminal defense lawyers. But it looks like investigators pulled out all the stops.

FBI agents recorded former Veco president Rick Smith’s phone calls with Young, the AP reports today. In September, the AP reported that Veco’s CEO Bill Allen had recorded his calls with Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK).

If you missed Charlie Rose last night or the repeat today, you didn’t see film of Norman Mailer predicting in 83 all that has happened in Iraq. Incredible! He and Steve are enjoying one another’s company.

Pregnancy at age 48 is not risk free; biological clocks are ticking for a reason.

Pregnancy is never risk free. Natural process yes, risk free no.

I assume you noticed that labor was induced early due to “pulmonary edema.” One wonders, a la the Bill Frist School of Diagnosis, about pregnancy-associated cardiomyopathy.
