ZEEEEEED!

YOW.

Two in a row! On a roll!

Jane, I consider myself a decently aware follower of politics, and I have to confess, I have no idea what your post means.

is it true that Pelosi won’t let the FBI have the Foley computer? how come? (speaking of bad boys)

did everybody hear Huckadoodle doo proclaim …one must be perfect to get into HEAVEN? oy

I’m a little confused too. LG seems to be in the closet but is also backing McCain so how is that a slam against Thompson? or something…

how on gods green earth did she get it?

I think Huck is running as a comedian. Yes, he’s having a great time cuz the joke’s on us. He should have been run out of town on a rail a long time ago, but thanks to Bush/Cheney, we’re so scandaled out, anything ol’ Huck has done seems like just a ten year old’s arson phase.

one more year of these bozos should be the end of the republic

QUESTION: Do you have a favorable opinion of Senator Lindsey Graham?

QUESTION: Are you male?

QUESTION: Are you 50 years of age or older?

Somebody looking for a prom date here?

one of the commenters at Raw Story jokes that she inherited it from Hastert. here’s the link http://rawstory.com/news/2007/….._0109.html

Unless Pelosi agrees to hand over the computers, it is unlikely Foley will face charges. Because the explicit e-mails were not reported until late 2006, investigators did not begin building a case against Foley until that November, by which time the statute of limitations on charges stemming from messages sent to a 17-year-old in 2003 had nearly expired.

Stimulus? Never mind
If this Times report is at all right, Republicans will hold any attempt to help the economy now hostage to yet another try at making the Bush tax cuts permanent — thereby, among other things, crippling future possibilities for health care reform. I suspected that’s what would happen, but thought that maybe, just maybe, the GOP would be sufficiently scared by the prospect of a nasty recession in an election year that it would back off. Guess not.

a thousand points of light in his loafers.

OK, since Huck is mentioned above I suppose this is still on topic.

I want to call a hearty BS on ol’ Mikey’s Beverly Hillbillie’s cuisine of fried squirrel a la popcorn popper. I just googled the popper and someone trying to roast coffee says it’s impossible to use a popper because of the smoke.

I guess it sounds all folksy, you know, in the backwoods joshing the guys around the still seeing who can tell the tallest tales waitin’ fer the next batch, posing all Davy Crockett like, not knowing a greased up popcorn popper would set off the smoke alarms in the dorm (oh, don’t miss that little detail. He lived in the dorm, not the frat). Awwww.

OT I don’t know if this was covered earlier today on Rep (D) Robert Wexler (FL) speech on the house floor on Impeachment,
http://www.wexlerwantshearings.com/
We are making progress in the cause for impeachment of this Administration.

Who’s yer Daddy, Lindsay?

Olbermann for us now.

I’m amazed you tracked this down. I figured it was tall tales from the getgo. Jest a good ole boys bestin’ each other. How could anyone possibly cook squirrel in a popcorm popper? (Though I did get a neat mental picture of fur balls exploding as they bounced around.)

Jane, I consider myself a decently aware follower of politics, and I have to confess, I have no idea what your post means.

I am pretty ignorant, and I don’t get it either>

Ah, techno. Can’t get away with teh sheeit like afore.

Well, I started thinking about when the home popper became really popular but couldn’t get a good read on that. But then I came across coffee roasting??? and there is was. I don’t know. Just didn’t smell right. ;)

Frankly, I’m more alarmed about his wanting to amend the Constitution to reflect his values more. But I just couldn’t let go of the popper thing what with all the squirrels in our neighborhood.

Hello Nahant. C&L has a nice post about it right now. Saying Wexler is really gratified by the netroots support. Thanks for your linky.

Who’s yer Daddy, Lindsay?

And what’s the safe word?

So, I take it this lady is a Huckabee fan?

Have you been single you’re whole life?

This is OT but I’m watching KO and he’s showing Obama talking to some people. Obama’s referring to himself in the third person. I hate that. What does that say about someone who does that?
Sorry, but that really gets on Solai’s nerves.

Did we watch the video?

is it true that Pelosi won’t let the FBI have the Foley computer? how come? (speaking of bad boys)

Separation of powers and Speech or Debate clause. Same thing with the FBI raiding Rep Jefferson’s office. After Bushco, I don’t think it is a good idea to set a precedent of the Exec Branch raiding Congressional offices.

It does seem as if a compromise could be reached whereby the Ethics Committee could review the data and turn over the related e-mails.

If you don’t have enough poppers in your neighborhood for all the squirrels, you can bring them to my country house, where I have owls, hawks, and my wood stove. Ought to clean ‘em up pronto.

Gawd… I am so sick and tired of the Clintons.

Definition of a bachelor: a man who never made the same mistake once.

I’m not particularly knowledgeable on the subject, but is it a coincidence to see mention of “poppers” on this thread?

Old time popcorn poppers (like my folks had in the ’60s) were basically a recessed hot plate with a pan and lid that set in it. I used one for cooking other than popcorn when I was in college. did it do great? No, but it could cook things OK.

And the Clintons are telling us that Obama is the “establishment candidate”.

Listen Hill and Bill. You can’t get much more “establishment” than beaing a team leader at the DLC.

The human occupants of our house really like Rachel Maddow. The non-human occupant is off in the corner killing some inanimate objects, and not watching Countdown.

I’d pay money if necessary not to have a beer with Hillary and Obama.

MMMmm,mmmmmMM!
Squirrel melts.
That one is a classic.

John Edwards. Is the right candidate for the times.

You and me both Kiddo!

Yes, Rachel is the best counter to republican b.s. that I’ve seen since…well, ever.

Is McCain being swiftboated?

KO is about to de bowel Oreally
pass the popcorn pleazzzzzzzze

Yes, but it’s so ridiculous that I have to wonder if a McCain supporter is doing it.

Long ago, depression babies taught me how to cook fresh scrambled squirrel brains and eggs.. And if you are hungry enough you can cook fantastic meals in far less friendly utensils than a popcorn popper.

The birth pangs of a new Middle East Central Asia.
Condi, call your office.

Yep, bigtime. Claiming he gave up U.S. secrets in Nam in order to get medical treatment. I’ll look for the link.

That is my thought..old metal pot with heater..some oil..a bunch of squirrel legs..flour, salt and pepper…..yum!

Here it is. http://www.tpmmuckraker.com/archives/005084.php

Concur. And Obama is really starting to grate as well, ‘third-person’(agreeing with solai) or Ray-gun stroking nonchalance. What a heavy-weight. Our cup runneth over with such ’superb’ choices, no?

MY take on push polling is taking a faux poll asking negative questions of your opponent like: Do you know when Guiliani stopped beating his wife, or did he stop before his third marriage? etc

HRC keeps talk, talk, talking about “experince”. What is the Senator referring to?

she is on the Via Condotti and cant be reached

H. Salt Esquirrel.

Yea, and apparently Rush has come out to say that Romney is the only choice. It will be fun to see how THAT ONE goes down with the fundies.

I like Obama as much as I do Hillary. ;0)

putting index finger up to wind after licking it

Oh boy. Falafel everywhere.

this race is Shakespearean Comedy of errors imo

Looks like we went to different schools together…

Ah, Kiddo you are so much more ‘inclusive’ in your ‘likes’ than I.

he is one batshit mofo…..wonder what his drug of choice is

Long ago, depression babies taught me how to cook fresh scrambled squirrel brains and eggs.. And if you are hungry enough you can cook fantastic meals in far less friendly utensils than a popcorn popper.

Don’t eat squirrel brains or any type of neural tissue. About ten years there was a report from Kentucky of hunters who ate squirrel brains and eggs and then developed a “Mad Cow” type of illness and died.

if you look at all the polling data, you’ll see that the rise of Huckabee and the demise of Hollywood Fred coincide… there’s almost a direct correlation. Which explains why Thompson has been going after Huckabee exclusively — and this call is his supporters fighting back.

But lets face it, Huckabee didn’t enter this race to win the 2008 nomination — he did it for 2012 (or 2016). I mean, he got in last year at a time when Rudy was flying high, McCain was still the media favorite, and Mitt was spending a big chunk of his own money to make himself credible — what realistic chance did Huckabee have?

But Huckabee also knew that there was no one then in the race who could directly appeal to the evangelical base of the party — sure, he’d lose the nomination in 2008–but he’d lose respectably enough to be considered a strong contender in the future — and might even get a VP nomination out of it to keep the evangelicals energized. Even last january the GOP nomination wasn’t worth that much — Huckabee had nothing to lose, and everything to gain, just by giving a credible showing. (Thompson’s free-media driven campaign almost turned Huckabee into a joke, but thanks to Thompson’s utter lack of campaign skills, that didn’t happen.)

So now were looking at a brokered convention for what looks like a worthless nomination. If Huckabee is 2nd or a close 3rd, he will be handed the nomination by the party bosses because once he loses, he’s not a factor for 2012. But if Huckabee is smart, he’ll demand the VP slot in exchange for his delegates support — that’s win-win for Huckabee… he’s the default GOP favorite in the next “open” election that way — if hell freezes over and the GOP wins in 2008 and 2012, Huckabee is the nominee in 2016, if the GOP wins in 2008 and loses in 2012, Huckabee is the favorite for 2016. If the GOP loses in 2008, he’s the favorite in 2012.

Your welcomed … dosido…. I an hoping he gets this impeachment going we can’t afford to let these criminals get off scott free!

I like Obama as much as I do Hillary. ;0)

I like Yucca Mountain Girl as much as I do Bush. I voted for Obama today, and if Hillary were the candidate, I’d consider voting Present.

As she panders from state to state, she becomes more hypocritical by the second. Fear Factor last night, as if her illusion of experience, managing the White House Kitchen Chef, and souffle choices in any way makes her “more qualified” to handle terrorism.

It was great to hear from Hillary that “terrorists are serious” because I could have sworn they’re blowing people up as a joke. But Hillary said “it’s serious.” She’s taken her place with the great thinkers on the planet.

You can learn a ton from TV.

KO talking about homeless vets and that they need help. Billo says “there is no way that 200K vets are on the streets” If so I will make sure they don’t sleep on the streets… What an asshole! I bet all of you have seen vets begging on the streets for hand outs. The VA needs more money to help those who served and defended our constitution. But do you think this administration will do any thing for them? bush’s budget cut money for the VA but fortunately congress put it back and added more. Not enough but at least they care about our vets. Hopefully when we get a democrat in the White House they will get what they deserve and earn.

Did she really say that?

‘Serious’ly impressive.

I believe you’ve given her rather short shrift.

This places her in a class by herself, seriously, this is beyond mere mortal brilliance, tending, if we are seriously honest, more towards the status of oracular.

Lindsay’s version of a Joe Jackson song?:

“is he really going out with him?
is he really going to take him home tonight?
is he really going out with him?
‘cuz if my eyes don’t deceive me
there’s something going on around here”

John Edwards. Is the right candidate for the times.

Kiddo–

You’re thinking of voting for Edwards? I’m sorta getting that idea.

*g*

Re:

John Edwards. Is the right candidate for the times.

Sure, but how about the Chronicle, the Post, the Post-Intelligencer or Pravda?

Re:

Is McCain being swiftboated?

No. Showboated.

Re:

The birth pangs of a new Middle East Central Asia?

Craig Murray is your man (formerly) in Samarkand.

Re:

Ummm, just hazarding a guess here, but isn’t experience what Ms. Lewinsky had?

Re:

Oh boy. Falafel everywhere.

And when the falafel vendors fail to change the oil? We call that Feel Awfuls.

Re:

Or maybe a Roger Clemens Comedy of E.R.A.s

Did she really say that?

What’s characteristic of HRC is that she plays games with nearly every position she takes. She can never say anything straight up, and she won’t own up to a damn thing she’s said. Hillary Girl had the nerve to say yesterday we should belive Billionaire Bozo Robert Johnson’s (Mr. BET Good for You) explaination that Obama worked for communities in the hood and that’s what he was referencing.

Her tap dance at the Debate last night was a page out of the Rove playbook. I just can’t believe Americans (in spite of their OJ/Britney Custody Hearing/Gossip Girl obsession) are dumb enough to think that if Hillary Girl says (paraphrasing) “Terror is serious and boy I know it is and I’m ready to be serious about it from day one (implying) that these wimp wussies Obama and Edwards don’t have a clue what a terrorist is and if they were in office and terrorists rear their head you can expect them to be reading “The Pet Goat 24X7 and read it from the Oval on National TV.”

Hillary Girl said:

“I don’t think it was by accident that Al Qaeda decided to test the new prime minister,” she said. “They watch our elections as closely as we do, maybe more closely than some of our fellows citizens do…. Let’s not forget you’re hiring a president not just to do what a candidate says during the election, you want a president to be there when the chips are down.”

And when reminded of it by Timmeh she responded in her best immitation of smashmouth bad ass:

“That is the fact. The fact is we face a very dangerous adversary.”

I can see the terrrrrisssssts cowering now at Hillary Girl–about like they cower at Bushie.

Re:

Looks like we went to different schools together…

Looks can be deceiving.

Re:

what realistic chance did Huckabee have?

About the same as Truman’s in ‘42.

Re:

I an hoping he gets this impeachment going we can’t afford to let these criminals get off scott free!

As in Capt. Scott in Antarctica in ‘11 dying of scurvy, malnutrition and hypothermia? I’m thinking now that we have George Bush on world tour… Antacrtica is where he can claim to help the world come to peace, and prove it.

Re:

and if Hillary were the candidate, I’d consider voting Present.

And I’d vote her not fit for presentation in civil society.

Re:

But do you think this administration will do any thing for them?

Ummm, simplify their food chain from dumpster to dining in delerious declinations of depravity?

Re:

I just can’t believe Americans (in spite of their OJ/Britney Custody Hearing/Gossip Girl obsession)

Omigod, I better start paying attention to the real news. OJ is getting custody of Britney’s kids? That’s big. That’s really big. I’m signing off so I can pay full attention to Entertainment Tonight.

Omigod, I better start paying attention to the real news. OJ is getting custody of Britney’s kids? That’s big. That’s really big. I’m signing off so I can pay full attention to Entertainment Tonight.

Well…

OJ will be in Vegas long enough trying to decide if he can move enough memoralabilia to make bail to be a write-in candidate for the caucus tomorrow. He may get custody of Britney’s kids, but he’s got serious competition from a gamut of Baby Daddies. What I can confirm at this time, Ray, is that for his campaign, OJ has already decided to take a page out of Hillary Girl’s Rove Playbook–i.e. “Ahmm from Chicago transplanted to Arkansas and ah Hung with Troopers when ah thought Bill was boogying with Jen Flowers and ah can kick terrrissst ass and these wussie boy/sissies can’t. And ah’ll bitchslap ‘em on the terrrist Issue everah chance ah get.”

She don’t have no details on how she’d deal with domestic terrrrrrrissssssm at the homeland. She don’t have no details as to how she’d pay for or implement health care for the 49 million uninsured. She does have a list of details on what her staff thinks is important to bullshit about in every state where there is a campaign.

Hillary Girl gonna wave the wand and get spiffy jobs brimmin’ with perks for every unemployed American.

Hillary girl big on your civil liberties–she’s fairly obsessed with ‘em. Heap big plans to get ‘em back when you explain what the problem might be with wiretapping.

Hillary girl gonna do hands on management of the economy–no slide into a recession like Ms. Greenspan’s husband’s not taking steps to head off the mortgage crisis.

don’t forget to Dredge in flour salt and a dash of white pepper. youse aint gonna have the finger lickin gravy without it, best part of the meal actually

nope! she was a newbie she got messy and didn’t swallow she was overcome by volume.

why would you vote for an asterix*? that will be Edwards soon.
