Mornin’ All

Good morning Christy. Loving the picture! How cute. ;-)

hi everyone…

Happy Easter to the Fire Pups who are religious.

Happy Easter! Happy Spring!

The time for daffodils is now.

It’s Spring?
Then why are my back and legs sore from shovelling snow these last two days?

Elliott, right now I’d love to see a blade of grass. We still have a ton of snow on the ground here. It’s frozen solid too. When will it melt? Have no idea. LOL

Caribou, Maine has close to 200 inches of snow this year. Wow! They’ll be thawing out come June I suspect. ;-)

18 degrees , feels like 5 with the windchill factor.

Peeps rule.

Good Morning, Happy Easter to everyone where applicable.

Gotta love the daffodils, they make me smile.

Happy Easter!

Actually, they’re over 182 inches of snow (already beat the all-time record) and one more good snow storm will bring them near 200 inches.

We haven’t seen a winter like this in years.

hey Christie,
right back at ya !

and yes, #3 is my pick

Go Lady Mountaineers!

These videos might be appropriate this morning or not. They’re of Rev. Wright’s Christmas Day 2007 sermon. Each video is @ 6minutes long, but if you listen to just one of them, you get a really good feel as to how he REALLY is:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdfbWSJINhg

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVeK0JDPm8Y

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o36KBeDXJ8

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFQAQVcn89A

The last video has the remarks about Hillary that we’ve been listening to on the ROM (republican owned media) for days now…taken out of context, of course. When you hear all of it the part about Hillary doesn’t jump out so much than when it’s played by itself.

But hey! The ROM is really showing us their racist side! Even on C-SPAN this morning some of the callers are making my skin crawl.

Refreshing take by Frank Rich this morning. If Mrs. Clinton were to find the “audacity of candor” about her own past, including her support for pre-emptive war (as long as it’s competently run), she would have a chance at putting an intellect, empathy and public service equal to Obama’s to use as president. But dragging Obama rather than Bush/McCain through the mud only gives McCain a giant “Easter egg”, without improving her prospects. (An electoral gift McCain is likely to confuse with his prostate, if his “Sancho Panza”, Holy Joe, isn’t there to interpret for him.)

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03.....ef=opinion

MoDo continues to obsess about the Clintons. It’s as if this Hecate, unable to satiate herself by chronicling Bill’s adultery, can’t write about anything else until she dances on their not-side-by-side graves.

[No cite needed: like Ann Arbor and Columbus finding each other on game day, just go South/North until you smell it, then go East/West until you step in it.]

I liked the peepers market

FYI -

Phil Donahue (Body of War) on C-Span2 Q&A tonight at 8:00 p.m. EDT

Wow! Scathing! Nice. ;-)

Anne Marie Cox wasn’t she the blogger who was so concerned and writing about anal sex?

This is so pathetic.

I wouldn’t listen to any of these prevaricators for a minute.

When they open their mouths lies come out.

To be fair, she wasn’t “concerned”, she wrote about it favorably.

The UK’s Guardian has an unvarnished modernization of the Passion, with Bush as Roman emperor/governor of Judea. (Since McCain can’t tell one Semitic people from another, it’s a remake likely to have legs.) It’s a reminder that the cross isn’t a piece of jewelry, but a symbol of exhausting torture transfigured into hope. Its ability to combine humility - rather than arrogance - and power requires keeping both functions firmly in mind.

One of my readers left the following links about this program last night:

http://www.pbs.org/moyers/jour.....watch.html

Okay, I’m leaving now because I can tell the thread goes dead when I’m on. LOL I’ll be back later when the Lake is more awake and grilling on the beach. ;-)

Do you think the Easter Bunny supports Fair Trade practices?

They are now certifying flowers, I love this. I saw a beautiful bouquet of roses yesterday and I was hesitant to buy them, but now I see on their Web site that it is indeed legitimate.

No grilling on the beach here. 6″s of snow on Friday. It’s a winter wonderland.

Our Mission

The Garrison Institute applies the transformative power of contemplative methods to solve pervasive social and environmental challenges in order to create a more compassionate and resilient world.

Our Vision

Action in the world and contemplative practices are convergent. The greatest social challenges of our time - healing traumas, redressing environmental threats, building a future for our children - are also our greatest spiritual challenges. Meeting them often requires reexamining our behavior, values and worldviews, and tapping inner sources of compassion, vision, and motivation. These are skills contemplative practitioners cultivate. They are also mission-critical for professional caregivers, environmental advocates, educators, and others whose work involves building a better future.

Personal and social transformation is the goal of contemplative thought and practice. The world’s great wisdom traditions and new research in cognitive neuroscience alike attest to the power of contemplative practices to change destructive behavior and patterns of thought, unleash creative energy and transform the people who practice them. History attests to the power of these individual shifts to change the world.

Einstein said that we cannot solve problems with the state of mind that created them. Contemplation - the practice of reflecting deeply - transforms one’s state of mind, thereby changing perceptions and opening fresh possibilities for action. The Garrison Institute believes that contemplative methods will come to be broadly used as an effective and wise force for cultivating the essential human qualities of insight, caring, altruism, ethical behavior, and courage. By giving rise to new vision and wisdom, contemplation will lead to fundamental and much-needed value shifts in society.

just a little sunshine

thanks Riesz - had tivo’d the women’s games and hadn’t seen that yet

WV men knocked off Duke - a good day to be a Mountaineer

fyi - as many Firedogs do not follow sports or either of these tournaments, the Sportswriting Media treats Duke and North Carolina the way National/Political Media treat McCain and the Republics - (although unlike Republics both these schools run great programs with high graduation rates) in years past when either has been knocked out early, the bobbleheads continue to talk them up deep into the tourneys a la “Slippery Rock has clinched National Title, this is good news for Coach K and the Duke program . . .”

wonder if ol Zeke was at either game

Wow. Just looking at the line-up makes me cringe.

Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel!

Thanks for the info Christy– I will wait for Mr. Donahue at 8pm tonite.

(mumble, grrr, mumble– I mean, Kyl, Schumer, Specter et al– ugh)

From BBC News:

Cheney meets Palestinian leaders

Dick Cheney and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas
Mr Cheney went straight into talks with Mahmoud Abbas
US Vice-President Dick Cheney is holding talks with Palestinian leaders in the West Bank town of Ramallah as part of a Middle-East tour.

He made the trip after giving Israel strong backing on security issues.

The visit is part of an attempt to revive the peace process, but correspondents say people on both sides remain sceptical.

It came as rival Palestinian groups signed a Yemeni-brokered reconciliation deal promising to revive direct talks.

Cheney’s two sides. From BBC News:

Cheney backs Israel over security

Mr Cheney said the US was dedicated to the peace process
US Vice-President Dick Cheney has given strong backing to Israel ahead of talks with Palestinian leaders.

Mr Cheney said the US would never put any pressure on Israel over issues he said would threaten its security.

Speaking in a news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, he described America’s commitment to Israel’s security as “unshakeable”.

Mr Cheney will visit the West Bank town of Ramallah on Sunday for talks with Palestinian leaders.

Rendell and Richardson on Fox News Sunday
Wallace brings up Judas comment to Richardson

good morning!

beeeeeautiful morning here, crispy air, sun’s out, melting the frost.

once again, am depending on all of you for info on the news this sunday morning.

no cable.

i used to watch one show and tape another, actually a few times i had TWO vcr’s going….i was that crazed about it all…….even taped cspan. guilty.

there, i admit it.

drove my former husband over the wall. heh/

OT

here is a site for you peep lovers that a friend sent me last year.

i posted it last year, too.

probably a lot of you have it already, but is worth going back to.

made ME laugh.

http://www.lordofthepeeps.com/

well, well, well– better late than NEVER. /s

McCain (while on his most excellent taxpayer funded campaign with Graham and Lieberman) did not meet with Mr. Abbas… although he did place a call to him.

what b.s.

“sceptical” does not even begin to describe my feelings.

drove my former husband over the wall. heh/

what did you do to him? you know, I never got your email…lost in the toobz…

Expect more today from CHENEY and his SOCK PUPPET ?

CHENEY’S SOCK PUPPET (March 19, 2008) ..

“Bin Laden warns Europe over Mohammed cartoons”
Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden warned Europe Wednesday of a “reckoning” for publishing controversial cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, US monitoring groups said. In the message, addressed to the “intelligent ones” in the European Union, bin Laden said that publishing the “insulting drawings” was a greater crime than Western forces targeting Muslim villages and killing women and children. And the “reckoning for it will be more severe,” he said, according to a transcript of the message provided by the Virginia-based IntelCenter. Referring to a series of cartoons published in Danish newspapers, the Al-Qaeda leader also warned: “if there is no check on the freedom of your words, then let your hearts be open to the freedom of our actions.”
http://afp.google.com/article/.....FkwmtBXfKw

CHENEY (March 20, 2008) ..

“Cheney: Afghanistan Needs NATO Help”
“America will ask our NATO allies for an even stronger commitment for the future,” Cheney told a news conference in the Afghan capital, Kabul, where he made an unannounced visit. “All free nations have an interest in a secure, democratic Afghanistan. We believe the commitment needs to continue and perhaps needs to be reinforced.”
http://ap.google.com/article/A.....AD8VHCF2G0

CHENEY’S SOCK PUPPET (March 21, 2008) ..

“Bin Laden says free Gaza with “iron and fire””
Osama bin Laden urged Palestinians on Thursday to use “iron and fire” to end an Israeli blockade of Gaza, in a recording after the Vatican rejected accusations by the al Qaeda chief of a “new crusade”.
http://www.reuters.com/article.....3620080321

CHENEY (March 22, 2008) ..

“Cheney: U.S. won’t pressure Israel on security”
“America’s commitment to Israel’s security is enduring and unshakable, as is Israel’s right to protect itself always against terrorism, rocket attacks and other attacks from forces dedicated to Israel’s destruction,” Cheney told a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.

Richardson might have said:

Good Morning all and Happy Easter.

Happy Easter to all…there are good people here, I just know it.

Ahh, a Quebecois photo show, I’m off to view. . .

it’s easter sunday and no one has mentioned chocolate yet?

(although unlike Republics both these schools run great programs with high graduation rates)

FWIW, My Hilltoppers are the only men’s team with 100% graduation for the most recent scoring period.

Go Big Red!

biodun at 33==
for one, i used my own brain, drove him nuts, but that’s what he loved about me, too.
love/hate thing.

i was addicted to political head shows, and they were on at the same time, so, i would tape the one i wasn’t watching, sometimes had both vcr’s goin’, wasn’t sunday fare for him……..he liked keeping his head in the sand, is a republican, and was nasty about it, so i ’drove him over the wall’ with it…..tooooooo bad, i’d been keeping up with politics since i was a young ’un, and wasn’t gonna change at this late date.

check out # 8 , compare and contrast, apparently folks in DC have a lotta time on their hands . . .

Dakine - wow ! that’s higher than Paterno’s 82%(another bobblehead fave)

Good morning Ellie, enjoy.

Hope those who are watching the ‘heads’ talk will report back on whether what is being called HRC’s Regan’s ‘4 years in uniform’ and Ford’s “no Soviet domination in Eastern Europe on my watch’ “Walter Mitty” moment by DHinMI on dailykos.com.

subject: HRC’s claims last week at George Washington University, in the presence of former Sec. of Defense Togo West that

I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia, and as Togo [West, former Secretary of the Army] said, there was a saying around the White House that if a place was too small, too poor, or too dangerous, the president couldn’t go, so send the First Lady. That’s where we went.
I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.

and the countervailing evidence, with youtube in the comments of DHinMI, that it was nothing of the sort, and if it had been, HRC wld have been using the eight-year old girl whom she greeted with a kiss as a human shield.

now that you mention it,
gotta love the chocolate bunny

Well, for the record, it is the basketball grad rates that were 100%. Don’t know where they are on the football ratings scale (they are transitioning to the big boys level of football right now).

Had limited Toobz access in past days. As this is Easter related, I do not believe it is thread-hijacking to ask if the Carville Judas quote has been discussed here, as it has been on Kos. There, it merited 700+ comments and the expression of deep offense on both the grounds of religion and Carville’s past behavior, notably in ref. to the Kerry Ohio recount that he apparently revealed to his wife whom we remember was on Cheney’s staff at the time.

Good morning CHS and all pups. Quick drive by to wish all a happy easter and good luck finding your eggs. I would also like to say that we do not need another bloody liar in the white house so no vote for clinton2 here.

There is clearly no such thing as spontaneous combustion.

Because if there was, right after Darth was quoted saying this:

Mr Cheney said the US was dedicated to the peace process

he would’ve immediately went ‘poof’!

Good morning from L.A. Going to be sunny & mid 70s in Santa Monica today.

Happy Easter-

Greetings, Earthlings. We Come in Peeps.

thank you, I enjoyed that.
at first no. 25 looked like a row of crosses to me and I immediately flashed on

Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

it’s so hard to believe we’ve been at war in Iraq for 5 years, no end in sight. and all in vain.

hey thnks for the Wright links- it was an awesome sermon!

Yeah, Dick Cheney is a peacemaker in the same way the Boeing B-36 was.

FNS address the McCain mistake

Grover Norquist?????

Grover Norquist?????

Is this guy even relevant anymore?

As you can see, the Hillary haters can’t quit, even on Easter morning. Well all I can say is it must feel bad to be so filled with bile that you just can’t stop spewing, even for one day. You can’t stop.

Notice that there is not one anti-Obama comment on this thread. That should tell you something.

I meant Convair, but you get the idea. When I hear the words like negotiation, honest broker, and peace, I immediately think of Dick Cheney.

Thanks for the link. One of the wonderful things about this place is you learn (at least one) something new every day.

AH……Maria Bartoromo….Pumpkinhead must be desperate to quash feelings of a recession…..Maria, the Money Honey, who when interviewing CEOs asks the most fawning and dumbest of questions…as a friend of mine, a well known money manager and economist calls her the “dumbest person reporting on the financial markets….Happy Easter to all who celebrate….instead of watching these dumb shows go out and do someting….It’s spring….

Typical Republican. Projection, much?

Yeah, it does.

That he’s the far better progressive candidate.

Thanks Ellie.

I did that on two and a half hours of sleep. As I was driving back this song came on on my radio. Started to tear up, it still is so à propos.

Sent you mail on fb.

Wallace asks about the McCain gaff on Al-Qaida in Iran:
-to Brit it’s just a blip, age the issue not McCain’s expertise.
-A woman I don’t recognize (sorry) remarks that the thing to her is the DNC jumping all over it, just silly to think McCain doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Wallace only asked those two.
but later Juan sticks in his assessment of the McCain moment, it’s about McCain’s capability.

FWIW!
oh man, that was my first pick for protest song during the late late nite fdl protest song-a-thon!

Maria, the Money Honey, who when interviewing CEOs asks the most fawning and dumbest of questions…

She’s the same knucklehead who, last fall during one of many recent market meltdowns said “Citibank is at $35. Come on! When could you ever buy Citi @ $35?”

Citibank is now at $22.50/shr.

She should stick to reporting, not cheerleading.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/comm…..ligion.usa

excellent piece, thanks for sharing it.

In suspect not many pups even watch those bobblehead shows. I can’t imagine why brilliant Christy bothers to remind us who is spewing this morning.

Iraq is a mess. We drove out virtually all the people who had post enlightenment mentality and what is left is the islamist tribes fight for turf with a 12th century mentality.

Our “strategy” is to lock them down and then pay them to police their little areas.

The entire adventure is beyond bizarre. When and if we leave it will boil over into tribal feuds the likes of which we have never seen. I suppose then we might think it safer to re enter and grab the oil. It’s the only thing over there that interests the decision makers over here. Iran might have a different view since it just happens to be their neighbor.

Excuse to attack Iran being laid down - interference in Iran. Bingo two regions now in chaos ripe for sucking the oil, again the reason we care about the ME.

When and if we leave it will boil over into tribal feuds the likes of which we have never seen

I tend to doubt that.

Our military is regretably a very high volume killing machine, with anywhere from 200,000 to 1,000,000 Iraqis dead since the ‘war’ began.

Maybe, just maybe, it would be less chaos once we leave.

Kay @ 22 (should you return on this thread) -

Thanks for the links above. Unfortunately, dial-up precludes watching vids; also no VCR, DVD, or tivo thingie….which explains why I may seem unduly rabid about catching things like this on real-time TV. Those with high speed access forget/don’t understand what it’s like to belong to that group.

she doesn’t do reporting….she has “graduated” to media punditry….aka bullshit spin and I know everything about everything…just ask me…

there are few financial reporters…most have no idea what they are speaking about just regurgitating garbage…..same as most reporters on TV news…no real analysis….it’s called ” productivity” in modern business parlance…..takes too much time to analyze and understand and report facts

Joy!
Peggy Noonan on the Obama speech

Bom dia, pups

I hope all are well this Sunday morning. We are back from a run and now i’m baking the croissants that I left to rise last night.

Is that Portuguese?

mMmm that smells good, and so does the idea of going outside, I’ll be walking tho, not running.

Good Easter morning, to all and sundry…

Ah yes, Sander, the dithering blather of the twittering wisdoms. I refuse, absolutely, to watch or listen.

It is not a question of ‘learning what the enema think,’ for plainly, they do not; one may well assume that their gyrations and gibbering vexations are but mendacious ablutions designed to pander as well as to position their own little butts for comfortable ensconcement in whatever travesty is about to be perpetuated.

Mornin’ All!

I’ve been non-digital for the last few days, could only take so much hatred. I read a book this week, Into The Wild, by Jon Krakauer, a writer for Outside Magazine. If you haven’t read it, check it out. It’s a fascinating true story, but reads like fiction. I was immersed in it for several days.

Now that I’m digital again, just let me say, CHENEY SUCKS!

Well, it’s off to take the dogs for their Sunday morning hikeathon on San Vicente Blvd. No cooking to speak of for me today- Easter brunch w/friends @ The Abode later, then going to Lakers/Golden State game this eve. By some miracle we scored tix 4 rows up near mid-court. But never do we get to sit that close.

Have a lovely Easter Sunday, one & all.

Where is the Iraqi oil going? I do not believe that the current Shia Islamic Council government (recall the FDL piece yesterday with Cheney and the council) is getting all of it. What are your thoughts about where Cheeny is putting it? Could they be shipping it back to Texas and storing in it Dubya’s dry holes?

You have no idea what “we” are doing to bottle up the tribes in the country side - literally paying them top guard against each other to maintain a stalemate.

In suspect not many pups even watch those bobblehead shows. I can’t imagine why brilliant Christy bothers to remind us who is spewing this morning.

Probably just to annoy you.

I don’t think that much is being extracted but I suspect that a portion of what is is being stolen and sold on the black market and resurfaces somewhere.

My guess is that they are biding their time till they can go in an take it without having to fight. Meanwhile they got the price up so that when they do get at it, the fortunes to be made will only be more.

Who knows if they can resurrect the dollar and keep the price up. Seems unlikely but that may also be part of the long term plan.

Probably.

Hey! Everyone is awake and grilling finally! *waving to everyone* ;-)

I lived in the land of dial-up for years and understand your frustration. Honestly, I do. I got high speed at the beginning of 2007 and my nerves are back to normal. LOL

Just so you know, the four videos reflect Rev. Wright as a man who has a ton of patience in explaining the bible and how it reflects on him and his members. He also shows compassion and humor all along the way. He raises his voice only during the times when he talks about Hillary doesn’t understand what it means to be black in this country and how starting with the Romans the whites have been calling the shots. He raises his voice….but it’s appropriate. Not once do you get a CULT FEEL like the ROM (republican owned media) is projecting about him. You understand instantly what attracts Obama to this man and why even after all the “controversy” he says he can’t just push him out of his life. You understand that 99.999999% of the words spoken by Rev. Wright over the last 20 years have been positive and uplifting for those fortunate to have heard him.

Well, that’s the premise of the videos in a nutshell. Hope you enjoyed the show. ;-)

yes it is, means good morning

Morning all!

Tha’s o.k. Raven, I’m already annoyed. Go figure.

If anyone has the honourablescmuckable NorQuiz’s address, I’ve got some bills for him. Since they’re all privatized expenses, he shouldn’t mind.

Pay up grovel.

Because if there was, right after Darth was quoted saying this:

ah, that’s because you haven’t translated “peace process”

“peace process” - the process by which the palestinian people are kept docile with lies and false promises while their land is stolen and their oppression and suffering increased

literally paying them top guard against each other to maintain a stalemate.

per Professor Cole -
The Guardian Video does a report, streamed below, on the prospect that some of the 80,000 members of the Awakening Councils or Concerned Local Citizens in Diyala Province and elsewhere are going to go on strike. Many of them say that they haven’t been paid for a while. Others complain about their continued subjection to the Shiite government (this complaint is common in Diyala Province). Still others resent the refusal of the al-Maliki government to integrate them into the formal state security services.

Professor Cole link

odd. it looks like pieces processpool here.

lol.

You have no idea what “we” are doing to bottle up the tribes in the country side - literally paying them top guard against each other to maintain a stalemate.

I’ve read that, and my thought is keep paying ‘em.

It’s cheaper that keeping 150,000 troops over there.

Look, you could be right (about the coming chaos if/when we leave.)

I just think we’ve got chaos now, and I read often that what stirs a lot of it up is our occupation of Iraq.

So let’s leave their country to them while still providing humanitarian aid and see what that gets us.

I certainly don’t think it would make it any worse.

Good morning everyone, and Happy Spring! -

I just saw something on MTP that got my attention and I’m wondering if anyone else caught it. It happened when they were yapping about how the Fed is “throwing the kitchen sink at this problem”, and Maria Bartiromo made a statement that made Timmeh’s eyebrows go all atwitter. She said (paraphrasing), “The long term effect of what they are doing is likely to be high inflation, but the public won’t feel the effect of that for at least another year.”

The camera cut to Russert just as she was saying that, and he suddenly got this “deer-in-the-headlights” look and his eyebrows shot up. He was apoplectic. It was written all over his face, “Don’t say that! You’re gonna give it all away!”.

That is teh plan, folks. Throw whatever short term measures they can at the economy to keep it going until election day. Then let the long term fallout come down on the next Democratic administration and blame it all on them. Just like they did with poor Jimmy Carter.

Just saying…

bom dia, Biodun. tudo bem?

I was listening to Meet the Press, not watching it, and I heard what I thought was a Republican strategist. It turned out to be John Meacham editor of Newsweek. If you took the labels off the Serious People in the MSM and just listened to what they said, you really wouldn’t be able to distinguish them from Republicans. And just think about it, that this is 7 years into the worst most disastrous Presidency in out history and these are the guys who are supposed to have expert knowledge, experience, and insight above and beyond us.

I was planing to hide mr wobbs choc bunnies but before I could, it had an accident of the ear sort *g*. His big treat are the croissants. I make them once or twice a year.

This morning I was going through my blog roll to see what my faves were saying about Easter. Well, as usual, Angry Ballerina didn’t surprise me with her current post! Yep, she’s angry again and in normal form.

The bobbleheads ARE republicans. What would you expect? Something like objectivity?

What happens in the ME is not our business. Unfortunately we flooded the region with weapons and so they will kill each other.

But how they resolve their social order and the government is non of our business.

If we want their oil, we should simply buy it from them.

We could have bought a lot for $3TT
