Hi Jane…

Ohhhh I love it…. where can I get one?

BTW, a couple of local Anchorage rightwing AM radio hosts are saying “Barack HUSSEIN Obama” every time they mention Obama’s name. Is there a concensus that when vthey say it the way those guys do it is slanderous, and is there a really good response?

thank goddess for the good news!

What will the Jews think?

On this one, I might have a lot to say, since my own kids are Jewish…

Our trolls were too bored to bitch.
Good point the GOP’s morale is down

Pumpkinhead: Mr. Obama, your daughters’ babaysitters’ fathers’ pastor once called Farrakhan a great man.

Do you repudiate them?

-G

Clinton needed to land a knockout punch tonight, and it doesn’t sound like she did it. If anything, she lost some ground. I Obama’s a lock at this point.

g’evening pups - anything happening today?

Is that the best you got?

Fuck ‘em. They sound like the ten year olds they have are devolving into.

I would say that their behavior says something about them.

-G

Damn, Tweety’s being an asshole to Jesse!

Damn I hate that fucker.

You could call in and ask them what trauma they suffered that caused their mental and emotional development to stop at a 3rd grade level. But that would be snarky, they probably wouldn’t get it.

This country supported King Hussein of Jordan for years.

TWEETY HATES WOMAN period

It hurt when Tweety and Russert were both onscreen together. It hurt so bad.

Hi Suz!

wow, Christy really is multi-talented:

Redd hits buzzer-beating 3 to lift Bucks over Cavs

Barack Obama should not be president, because when he was an EMBRYO his parents gave him the middle name, Hussein. What is wrong with America?????

the response is simple…..
you are a racist…you are a xenophobe….
you are an apologist for bush, cheney and rove….
you are a peddler of hate……
need i say more….?????

I’m thinking he is jealous.

“Fuck you asshole.” Worked for Ahhnold in Term I.

Why does it say Biodun Ignia?

“And your point is?”

Whatever the response to the Hussein stuff or the Madrassa stuff, it just backfires on them. People who are turned on by that are people who won’t vote for a woman no matter who she is, or won’t vote for an African American either. It appeals to the worst bias and ignorance in people. If I were running a campaign I’d do everything to eliminate it, but there’s a reason that they’re called wing-nuts.

What will the Jews think?

The Jews, they know Russert’s logic comes from the same place as his brain is located.

TDS on now playing the same clip of Hill in the yellow jacket invoking the heavens that Timmeh accidentally played. TDS was taped 4 hours before the debate began.

BTW, a couple of local Anchorage rightwing AM radio hosts are saying “Barack HUSSEIN Obama” every time they mention Obama’s name. Is there a concensus that when vthey say it the way those guys do it is slanderous, and is there a really good response?

It’s childish, but it IS his name, so I don’t really see it as being slanderous. The proper response, of course, is to point out that the Republican front-runner is John Sidney McCain III. I kind of like the irony of that. The Democrat sounds like a terrorist, and the Republican sounds like a weenie.

Ask them if they had any choice in naming themselves.

Supported that other Hussein guy, too. Bushy mustache guy.

Sen. Byrd is in the hospital after falling at home.

Jacobs said Byrd fell at his Virginia home Monday night. He came to his office Tuesday and was on the Senate floor to vote for an Indian health bill. But after noticeably wincing in pain, Byrd’s staff advised him to see the Capitol physician, who “smartly for a 90-year-old man advised him to go to Walter Reed for observation.”

Some yokel did it here on our local progressive radio and I called in….

~ it is traditional in the adoption community of foreign born children to have their given birth name as their middle name…. Do you think that my son’s middle name which was given to him by his birth mother 25 years ago should be penalized because it is the same as the first and middle name of the current leader of North Korea?

~ wow… pretty special that in 1961, Obama’s mother gave him his middle name which just happens to be the same last name of a dictator who the US enabled to be in power and eventually became an enemy 30+ years later…

~ Hussein means blessed…

HUSSEIN = SMITH

but will he denounce or reject that name!

Barack’s middle name is Hussein. Hussein, Hussein, Hussein…

Mine is Helen. I never use it.

And Huckabee wants a law declaring a fertilized egg a person.

he really should stop wearing polyester pants–his brain is obviously not getting enough air. ; >

I think he should denounce his parents for giving him the name.

No wait, repudiate.

No, shun.

-G

“Barack HUSSEIN Obama”
Bush 1 sold Saddam HUSSEIN all those chemical weapons he used to commit Genocide.

Sidney??? So when he gave name rank and serial number….. Sidney…. no wonder they tortured him

Don’t like it. Almost as bad as Willard.

Barack Hussein Obama is the same code speech as Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The final stench? You talkin’ about Matthews interviewing Russert? I dunno, didn’t watch it.

I figure that every one of these talking heads who use BO’s middle name do so because they have a little dick and they are overcompensating.

I don’t know. I watched the debates with an open mind, and what I think is that either of these candidates would be a 1000 percent improvement over the asshole currently in office.

And yet, here comes my primary, finally, and I have no idea who I’m going to vote for. I still have a strong urge to vote my candidate, John Edwards. He’s on the ballot here in Vermont.

Voting between Barack and Hillary? I just don’t know. Which ever gets the nomination, I will surely support. But I really missed Edwards in the debate tonight, thought I heard so many echoes of his words.

Does the egg get to vote?

No. He is who he is, and he has the majority of the vote of the US, and the support of the planet. What’s in a forking name.

SPEW!

I don’t have a middle name. This crap makes me feel like marching down to the courthouse and taking Hussein as my middle name.

What if we all did that? That’d give the wingnuts something to talk about.

:) supported him before we didn’t support him.

if a female egg, she must remain 3 paces behind any male eggs and speak only when spoken to, mary mc.

Huckleberry Hound also wants to shut down the IRS. I think even most American voters can see that he’s not up to being president.

Reject?

I’m not eating breakfast….ewww.

I don’t know why Obama didn’t get rid of Hussein years ago when he first decided to go into politics. (really–it was always going to be used against him)

Or else he should get out in front of it and claim it proudly as his name.

Well, millions of people lost power today in Florida in rolling blackouts. After California and New York and now Florida I think we need some improvements.

No, they don’t get to vote or drink, but you’ll probably find a recruiter that would be willing to put their name on the blank for them as part of a delayed entry program.

Does it have tax liability?

Hey, wait a minute Suzanne. I thought size didn’t matter!

i voted Edwards in my NY primary even tho he had dropped out. it was a statement.

And mine is Jack, and that don’t mean Jack.

My grandmother didn’t have a middle name and it gave her a lot of grief when she applied for Social Security…. so she told them it was N. … for nothing…

only to men is what it looks like to me

Never address anything they say. Always play offense.

So ask, “Why would a private jet of extremely wealthy middle-aged men fly to a country known for it’s sex trade, especially underage sex, with vileS of vi*gra for the weekend?”

or, “Why would a man repeatedly call a workplace subordinate and vividly describe using sex toys on himself and sleeping around in Italy while his pregnant wife stays home, and then claim to be a champion of family values and Christianity? Isn’t that weird?”

Ya know…stuff like that.

It is just a word.

he was named after King Hussein of Jordan,one of Americas besst ist friends/

oh–Rachel Maddow says McCain won the debate.

When did he start channeling Ron Paul?

Will it come out holding a social security card?

You should vote for one of the candidates in the race IMHO–I understand your feelings for Edwards, but the vote for him isn’t going to help anyone including you who has spent a lot of time watching this primary race and should make your opinion count.

You’ve been misled.

And I’m here to tell you it bloody well does.

I thought that might be joke link too. No luck.

Just what we need -homicide investigation for every possible miscarriage. Will there be an flying possible early pregnancy squad to harrass every woman of childbearing age? Will those infernal murder mills, the fertility clinics, finally be closed down?

what’s that saying?

ah! “words have power”

Huckabee is going for the pre-delegates.

-G

By not getting rid of his name, he is claiming it.

I don’t have a middle name. My mom really named me Beer Fart Liberal, after my uncle. But they put it on the birth certificate as one word - “Beerfart.” It stuck.

Rachel kills me. Paraphrasing: “You wouldn’t vote to drive a bus into a ditch.”

Has anyone suggested giving her her own show? Oh, yeah. A million times.

I agree with Rachael. Im sick of debates and sick of the primary

I think a lot of men have been misled by women who don’t want them to feel more inadequate than they already are.

Bummer. Cuz we Scotsmen are known to be, well, “diminutive”. :-)

And Huckabee wants a law declaring a fertilized egg a person.

I grow weary of the “Life begins at conception” tripe. It’s like the “We haven’t been attacked since 9/11″ talking point. It simply isn’t true. The egg is alive prior to conception, as is the sperm. Fertilization does not “create” or “begin” life.

hahahahahahahaha
undoofy clap

Other people name you...you don’t even have a choice until you are older and can legally change it…like Helen to…gee..I can’t even think of another name….well, you get the picture…

Oh, you could ask them if they know that Barack’s mother’s first name was actually Stanley, and that she was a proud atheist and enjoyed reading Marx.

That should really get them frothed up.

Betcha they drive Hummers, too.

agreed, it’s a dumb point to hammer on.

Huh?

My ex is Jewish by way of Israel..born in the US of Israeli parents…Jewish culture is transmitted through the mother…I guess I really don’t understand your question…??? Please spell it out for me…

I was officially middle named “Rakestraw” but they changed it as they thought it would give me trouble.

i think primaries are where your heart and soul should rule, regardless of practicality or feasibility, etc.

the general is where you get practical.

it’s the name barack that means blessed.

Me too. I’m bored. Wake me after labor day.

Oh, stop!! :)

Not one scotsman of my personal … acquaintance.

I thought it was the opposite. Swinging free and sligthly chilled under the kilt kind of beefed things up, increased fertility, etc

I am part Scots, and I always, uh, thought it was the opposite. Uh-oh.

The funny thing is that they refer to themselves as “pro-life”. I always point out that they are pro death penalty and pro war.

They’re not pro life, they’re anti sex.

another classic overcompensation for being shortchanged - big powerful vehicles.

not the ones in Glasgow that i’ve known

; >

Are you seriously gonna critique Obama about his middle name? I’ve heard him address this several times. He can be quite funny about it.

LOL - good one to repeat every time they say it.

Oh, stop!! :)

It’s “Don’t stop.”

he was named after King Hussein of Jordan,one of Americas besst ist friends/

King Hussein’s middle name is Sidney?

/kidding

ok got it backwards….

Thanks for feedback amberglow and PetePierce. I have never been so torn about my vote. I’m with you amber, in that I think my vote for JRE reflects my support for his progressive platform, and I think the fact he stayed in the race so long is why we heard so many of his talking points tonight.

But, I also hear you Pete. I’ve invested a great deal of time, effort and money in this primary, and I want to continue to have my voice, through my vote, count in some way.

I have some serious thought to put into it between now and Tuesday.

We’re fine here in the City Beautiful. But man, that was a nasty, nasty storm. didn’t last too long but it was spooky black and dark.

There is our regular poster and contributor “Biodun”…so I thought what? Is that Biodun with a twist? Just good thoughts!!! Another Biodun!

As a bit of karma the new SUV saftey crash test reports are out, and the Hummer didn’t do so good. Guess all that macho posturing and 2 miles per gallon won’t save your ass in a crash.

LOL

I get this mixed up. Is it supposed to be your hands or your feet that are proportionate with your wang?

I think GWB has tiny, tiny hands and feet.

I think Edwards is gonna endorse Barack before Tues to give him just enough boost for wins in OH and TX. Still thinking Edwards is frontrunner for VP as well.

What is going on? Biodun….WTF??? Troll attack or what? Mods?

“I think the fact he stayed in the race so long is why we heard so many of his talking points tonight.”

that’s what i was hoping to provoke when i voted. : >

Just thought it was like Kirk Murphy with and without the MD…

what’s the problem LS

Damned if I know.

Teeny weeny.

Along those lines, the media is just now pointing out what I’ve been noticing over the last week or so–gas prices are going up again. Here in Houston, it was just under $3 a gallon for quite while. Now it $3.05 to $3.10.

the same Biodun…I was outted in the book salon announcement (unintentionally I’m sure), so I told Jane might as well post with my whole name…

microscopic! : >

Russert is a cancer on the body politic. The health of the nation is in peril as long as he is held up as the model for political discourse. Just hope a new administration tells NBC they will not deal with this rich, pompous, disingenous phony.

Is that our Biodun or another Biodun? If it is our Biodun then okay…just checking.

Maybe should keep Russert. If the premises to his wretched and silly hypothetical dilemma questions get any longer and more elaborate, the audience will start to crack up before he finishes. Like to see how Russert handles that?

“Suppose NAFTA finances a trade deal that leads to the Chinise developing an anti-satellite missle, which Al Qaeda hijacks and uses to steer an asteroid towards earth, and it is all financed by the socialsecuritymedicaidtrustfundcrisis. Would you throw old people out in the cold to stop it? Would you attack Mexico, Yes or No?”

“That’s a silly question, Tim”

“Oh, so you won’t protect The Homeland, huh? Next question.”

Silly. Gawd…I got weirded out over that…you know.

see his answer at 117. same guy
