So!

What!

Eli!

Neuro!

Can you Digg it?

It’s the new thing. Maybe Robert Greenwald should go on FOX next. Then Keith Olbermann. Then Arianna Huffington and Jane Hamsher.

Seriously, when did it become okay to legitimize the GOP house organ that we’ve worked so hard to discredit this cycle?

Neuro’s digg

hrc is not going to get softball questions and she had better forking prepare like she has never prepared before in her life.

bo is out to score points off her with the base. no matter what she says, he is going to say she is wrong, even if discussing the color of the sky.

What Suz said.

Hi Eli!

Evening Eli. Not sure what to make of that.

‘Who is more foolish – the fool, or the fool who follows him? – Obi-Wan Kenobi” as quoted by Eli above

…so, tell me again, where exactly does Doug Feith fit into that equation?

Hi, LL! Hi, Betsy!

Hi Eli! I was just asking what the heck this interview was going to be like … I hope Hill bites his head off, frankly

I think BO did the right (wright?) thing goin on FOX. We can all sit here and talk about how illegitimate FOX is, but a helluva lotta people watch it. Ignore it at your own peril. But O’Liely? That’s going to far. Thisa is uch bullshit. BO goes on wuith Wallace and bnopw O’Liel;y is gonna start that “Obama’s too chickenshit to come on my show.” That’s what HRC wants. She stinks.

I think she is worried that Obama has the “independents / unaffiliated” and she wants to capture the Repugs. Kissy kissy.

That spell check thing workin’?

I think we’re going to get a presidential debate down here in New Orleans afterall! They’re talking September 18

She wants to make BO look bad. I’m not worried about her. She can handle that bum.

That’s not the plan, apparently. But it should be. That would be the second-best plan after “boycott Fox completely.”

I’m not shocked.

It’s de rigeur.

Scaife first.

Ailes next.

(the super-duper delegates)

gak.

The media knaves are consumed with Rev. Wright as the US sleep walks towards an unmitigated disaster in the Middle East with Iran and Syria in the crosshairs.

Lady Liberty should bite the cyanide pellet, this place aint worthy of her.

-G

Lady Liberty left 5 or 6 years ago.

I had hoped that maybe, just maybe, the Democratic candidates finally “got it” when they boycotted the Fox-CBC debates, but obviously not. Hopefully Hillary will at least watch the video above before she goes on, or maybe some Howard Dean interviews.

They’ve lost the John Edwards influence.

way OT. (sorry Eli.)

I have a new post up at one of my sites, taking issue with a recent New York Times editorial.

The Truth about High School Dropouts

That is painfully brilliant.

just when they were going to destroy themselves, they go and do it.

Bushco deported her back to France

OT but just a reminder we are beginning the next set of dates for an attack on Iran. Looking at sunrises and sunsets, moonrises and moonsets for Natanz, Iran, this window extends from April 29 to May 12 with best dates May 3-7. Not saying it will happen but if it does these are the dates and Israel still remains the most likely initiator.

When Stephen went on with “Papa Bear”.

the Newt is on the Daily Show

how disgusting

I guarantee O’Reilly will be super-charming. I’ve seen him do it before. Then at the end of the interview he…..
Oh fuck , Newt’s on TDS…later

O’Really is a pathetic individual, why would Hill subject herself to his smears…? Is she really running to the right after all? Aloha, Eli!

Clinton is going after the white male listeners of O’Reilly who won’t vote for an African American but who aren’t racists, no, not them, no.

OT but not completely… I got an Email from VOTEVETS and felt I should share here at the lake. Please take a few moments and if possible take action… I have already and got the auto reply from the newspaper.
It needs to made clear to the people of this country that the republicans are all words and crap action when it comes to truly supporting our troops, some who are on their fifth deployment. I don’t know about all of you but I feel our veterans are getting the short end of the stick… as usual… the republicans want ot use them and then they just want them to go away.
Please take the time and support our troops with a Veterans Bill that we as a people can be proud of! The Webb bill and not the McCain/Graham bill which is truly piss poor, they deserve only the best!

Dear VoteVets.org Supporter,

Wow! Last week, we asked you to write to the Senate, urging them to support the bipartisan GI Bill for the 21st Century, and reject a watered down bill offered by John McCain, Lindsey Graham, and Richard Burr. You responded – with force – sending 16,000 letters to the Senate! Add that to the 30,000 petition signatures on the GI Bill that we took to the Hill, and op-eds around the country that our veterans have written on the GI Bill, and we are dominating efforts to get a new GI Bill passed.
Now it’s time to take it to the next level, and get a letter to the editor in every daily newspaper in America!
CLICK HERE TO SEND A LETTER TO THE EDITOR ON THE GI BILL
Letters to the editor are the most read part of the paper, so when you submit a letter, it will be read by tens of thousands of your friends and neighbors. If we can get a letter to the editor in papers across the country, it’s the strongest message we can send that we will not allow the Senate to cave on such important legislation for our veterans. With all of you – 95,000 people strong – blanketing newspapers with letters to the editor is a goal we can reach.
The stakes couldn’t be higher. The bipartisan new GI Bill (S. 22) is poised to pass the Congress and go to the President. It will update GI Bill benefits to keep up with the cost of college, allowing those who served in Iraq and Afghanistan to get the higher education that we’ve promised our veterans since World War II. Senators McCain, Graham, and Burr, by introducing legislation that would cut the benefits in S. 22, are attempting to split the Senate, so nothing gets passed, and our veterans’ service is not honored.
ANGRY? WRITE A LETTER TO THE EDITOR OF YOUR PAPER TO MAKE IT CLEAR!
Our Letter to the Editor tool is easy to use. Just plug in your zip code, use our talking points to write a quick letter, and hit send. That’s it! In just a couple of days, your letter could be in the daily paper, read by thousands and thousands of people!
Please take a second, today, to take this quick action to help our veterans.
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Jon Soltz
Iraq War Veteran

Most deadly month for US troops since September, but JEREMIAH WRIGHT

Gas prices a record, crippling high prices, but JEREMIAH WRIGHT

Record foreclosures and bankruptcies, but JEREMIAH WRIGHT

Jimmy Carter returns from the Middle East with a Syrian promise of peace with Israel, but JEREMIAH WRIGHT

Food inflation like we’ve never seen in America, but JEREMIAH WRIGHT

Oil prices kissing $120bbl, but JEREMIAH WRIGHT

Another carrier group moves into the Persian Gulf, but JEREMIAH WRIGHT

exactly!

Newt is such a gasbag. Fart mouth. I hope Stewart asks him to button his jacket and take the collar extender out of his top button. He’ll turn blue and ’splode. BOOM!! Tey’ll have pretentious pseudo intellectual bnullshit all over the studio. Jimmy Carter wqs on last night. Talk about contrasts. Hard to believe they’re from the same state.

I’m serious when I ask this: Why doesn’t Newton go away?

As the North Carolina Republican Party official explained about the Obama/Wright ad, it has nothing to do with racism.

Jeremiah Wright may supplant Jimmy Carter as HISTORY’S GREATEST MONSTER.

Ooh, I missed that last one! Do you know which Carrier group, Teddy?

I bet you a dollar O’Loofa treats Hillary with kid gloves, and they spend a lot of time discussing reverend Wright.

newton the g not newton the usr here at the lake

Speaking of Robo calls, I just got one from someone speaking Spanish. A very demanding woman’s voice saying to “presio numero uno, immediamente.” Weird. How many people will get sucked in on this?

Jon Stewart seriously slapping around The Newt. Sweeeeeet.

I wonder if he’ll follow the interview up with obscene phone calls to her about loofas and falafels and such

Na, she’s just thinking she persuade some folks to vote for her.

It’s pretty much all I’m thinking about, Teddy. I figured it would blow over. Not right now, but by the timke the real campagn heats up. It’s not ever going away. And people are going to be convinced it matters and all the other things you listed don’t. What a shame. I’m very bummed out.

He will. He talks tough but he’s really a pussy.

It can only take so much. I think it’s on overload. /s

As the North Carolina Republican Party official explained about the Obama/Wright ad, it has nothing to do with racism.

This makes me feel so much better. And it’s not like they’ve been saying this in North Carolina for nearly 150 years.

I’d call it a draw, slightly in favor of Jon.

I saw gas selling for 3.59 a gallon for regular today. Highest I’ve seen here (NE KS).

It’s absolutely sickening.

Olbermann mentioned it as Breaking News from NBC’s Pentagon correspondent at about :45 into Countdown, just before WPITW, if you get a chance to see it in your area.

Yep..Just saw that in NH. Locally it went from 3.49 to 3.59.

-G

I work them pretty hard, that’s for sure.

Whereabouts in NE KS? …if I may be so intrusive…

and then teddysf.

Bring your namesake, we’ll negotiate…

Mahalo, Teddy!

It is coming right at us and now the media is offering smokescreens instead of daily cheerleading….Though if you saw 60 Minutes, that was a hunmdinger of cheerleading piece for war on Iran.

-G

Dang! That is cheap, only $3.75 here on the rez.

rev wright and sally quinn ’the rag’ on charlie rose right now….

North Eastern Kansas?

Average today is 3.60 nationally; a year ago it was 2.93.

That’s a twenty-percent increase in the price of a basic commodity purchased regularly by almost every American household, in one year.

$3.69 today in the western suburbs of Dee Cee.

the whole thing (going on faux) reeks of desparation

We’re right around $3.50 here in central TX.

$3.86 in town 5 days ago

rev wright and sally quinn ’the rag’ on charlie rose right now….

wait a minute, he said rev wright on the show, but it a discussion on rev wright……sorry….

Maybe I needd to drive up to PottawatomiLand and see what they’re selling it for…

I blame Bush

But I’m sure McSame would continue his policies

Plus, of course, the regular PBS offering every night: CARRIER.

It’s a shameful USNavy recruiting plug, and a harmful exploitation of American servicemen and -women. PBS should be ashamed.

Albert Hoffman who discovered LSD has died at the age of 102. He took LSD hundreds of times, and this clearly explains his early demise.

I’ll bring the bong, you bring the good stuff.

Uncle lives there. Lotsa family ties.

I found the msnbc article but, they don’t identify which carrier group…

It’s a shame to lose such a talented scientist so young, and with so much more to discover. Imagine what he might have revealed had he lived longer!

Lorita Doan has finally been fired.

about fucking time

Say it with me now…
Family considerations.

Wow. Curtains for “Cookies”.

I haven’t seen a Bong around here in a long time, but then again I wasn’t exactly looking for one…:)

Dorito Loan has been fired.

She’ll probably get a grand sendoff like Alphonso Jackson did…

I’m serious when I ask this: Why doesn’t Newton go away?

Why isn’t he introduced as “Disgraced congressman”? That should be permanently attached to his name, yet I’ve never heard him referred to that way.

Do *any* of them ever get that prefix?

Would you ever have thought one of the KEATING FIVE would be running for president with a snowball’s chance in hell of winning?

Ha! Must be family considerations, all right. Will she be pardoned? I truly wonder. Bush being, hmmm, unwell, will he pardon all these dumb patsies? I’m guessing he won’t. He’s not normal.

Shockingly, that’s not the case! Heh, a point blank; “I was asked to resign…”

More, please Mary!

Yes, I haven’t heard it!

Wow. Raising a toast to Henry Waxman.

And having a cookie in honor of Lurita Doan’s tenure.

Watch her, though, she’ll surface again. Those GOP African-American women are so rare, they recycle them. Just like they did Condi. Lurita will be back, mark my words.

Diff’rent name, perhaps… mostly Replublicants…

Mary…
You weren’t…

what’s the newt story yet again? I ain’t heard it neither.

“When congressman Newt Gingrich was a graduate student at Tulane University I baptized him by immersion into the membership of the St.Charles Avenue Baptist Church. Perhaps I didn’t hold him under long enough.” Rev. G. Avery Lee

I grew up at St. Charles Ave. Baptist Church. Dr. Lee married my first husband and me. My husband went to Tulane, was the same age as Newt so might have known him.

Dr. Lee is the coolest southern baptist I know. Except maybe for Bill Moyers.

The Harry S. Truman is in the Persian Gulf and the Abraham Lincoln just arrived nearby in the Arabian Sea.

Think Progress has this up…

O’Reilly Prepares For Clinton Interview: ‘I Have Stupid Questions’

In preparation for this segment, O’Reilly tonight asked Karl Rove for what he should ask her. Rove, not surprisingly, told O’Reilly that he should pit Clinton against Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) and ask: “Why did you let Sen. Obama begin his campaign and make a central element his desire for bipartisanship and remain silent about your efforts at bipartisanship?”

O’Reilly, however, said that even that question was “way too smart for me”

Thanks Loo Hoo!

bipartisanship is only a good thing when the gop is the minority party

“Do you think Senator Obama loves America as much as you do? Why not?”

yes, we have plenty of those…

In preparation for this segment, O’Reilly tonight asked Karl Rove for what he should ask her.

Of course he did!

cbs is running the politico story

here’s a little recent background on lurita making enemies last week

No more cookies for Lurita.

-G

SWEET…. thanks teddy

Lurita’s Done.

“Do you think Senator Obama’s preacher loves America as much as your preacher? If not, why not?”

bipartisanship is when the Republicans in the Senate let Lieberman pretend he is a Democrat…

They are shameless. Little George Snuffy asked Hannity for debate questions, too. They are rubbing America’s nose in their complicity.

I read the news of Lurita Doan’s resignation and thought somewhere there are GSA employees singing Ding Dong the Witch is dead.

ding dong the witch is dead

Should we send cookies, to show sympathy?

or Ding Doan the Witch is Dead…

i already tossed mine when she testified…

what is with the cookie references? I am clueless…

dial-up dmac, lady liberty, info-lady, whatever… you do good work!

;~P

One of my favorites, Suzanne!

Someone pass neuro some cookies please?

Pretty clear Lurita isn’t going quietly. Saying in an email that you’ve been asked to submit your resignation isn’t the Bushie way.

I wonder if she’ll have some stories to tell. Or if she’ll be indicted tomorrow.

I like cookies.

I get the feeling these aren’t going to be like Betsy’s cookies…

cookies for all!

Lurita Doan Has A Horrible Memory
(Except About Cookies)

Perhaps O’Loofah and Clinton will be dog whistling Obama smackdowns? Basically the entire Noize Machine, even the worst of th worst of it, are all advocating for Hillary right now. She has proven she has no problem working with them now.

(cue Juno)

Great additions Suzanne and neuro.

When the losers of the Democrat Party get together they are all on another planet. They have no understanding of the nation and people they purport to ‘govern’….

Stupid…as shit….

Dumb…as dirt….

Clueless..as fuck…

What a weird universe they inhabit; one where snatching defeat from the jaws of victory is SOP.

Get ready for McSame ’cause he will be President.

Henry Waxman asked her a specific question at her hearing, about the Rove-team briefing, and she responded that she’d arrived late to the meeting, remembered very little about it but that the cookies were good.

Or something remarkably inane.

Great job Eli!
Came in late because I had to hear every word between Phil and Orally. OMG, Phil did a great job, didn’t he? “I’m going to toss you off this set” sez Orally…

She’s got the Alberto Gonzales “I have no recollection” syndrome

;~P

When she was grilled by congress about the Rove orchestrated political events she remembered nothing….Only that there were cookies at the meeting…didn’t remember the power point display calling Democrats evil and showing what districts were being targeted.

-G

Speaking of war….Russia and Georgia are heading in that direction.

Lurita’s entry at Wikipedia doesn’t mention cookies as far as I can see, but it does say

“Despite recommendations by the United States Office of Special Counsel that Doan be “disciplined to the fullest extent”[17]and an ongoing congressional investigation,[18] she remains at her post.”

Somebody who knows how to edit Wikipedia articles might want to go there and correct the record…

Did someone say cookies?? gee I just having my desert Pepperidge Farms Sausalito’s mmmmmmmmmm good :>)

At the bottom of that article it had this…

More video from the hearing HERE and HERE. Firedoglake was liveblogging all day.

What? These things only happen on Fridays! What the… how the… oh, hell, this is good news. I’ll take it.

If Lurita has “cookies on the table,” why can’t we have “impeachment on the table?”

Nancy?

first link is bum, at least for me, Teddy.

and totally weird thing, was gonna post something interesting that i found a while back that had to do with lorita’s future employment…..newsmeat.com used to have a long list of lorita’s political contributions and with that, where she was employed when she made them…… it’s gone…..

and she has a few businesses, she won’t hafta be lookin’ for a job.

You’ve totally outdone yourself, Betsy!

yeah, right

you got that “click the responses” reflex that everybody else does.

;~P

Does this news about Lurita mean we should all go and clear the cookies off our browsers?…

Her wiki page has already been updated. Gawd, I lurves the internets.

Lorita is wearing the ugliest suit that Misook ever made.

I don’t know how. I know Suz taught me once…

I also get the feeling the cookies on Lurita’s table were not exactly Girl Scout Cookies…

what browser you using loohoo? firefox or ie?

Whenever I get into a discussion about O’Falafel with someone, I simply quote and ask questions about the Mackris transcript.

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/a…..ris14.html

This page has the “using the vibrator on himself” while talking to her. There’s a page about picking up “hot Italian babes” when on an upcoming trip to Italy, while his pregnant wife stays home. Hillary sure surrounds herself with classy men. (The two Bills, Spitzer, Newsome, etc.)

Same with conversation about Lush Limpdick. I just immediately ask, “Why would a private plane filled with middle-aged men with viles of V*agra go to the Dominican Republican, a known place for underage prostitution, both male and female, for a three-day weekend?” Do not stray until these questions are answered, since they always try to change the subject right away.

Ususally shuts ‘em up.

That makes three carrier groups in the Persian Gulf; Enterprise, Truman, and Lincoln!

Thanks Loo Hoo.

firefox

up on the toolbar, click tools and then clear private data on the drop down menu

Maybe this is what Hillary should ask O’Reilly tomorrow?

Oh, jesus.

I did that this weekend and accidentally lost my log in passwords to all of the blogs where I write or comment. It’s been a mess putting it all back together.

fuck

I thought we were already at 3.

preznits like boosh should not be allowed to have carriers with names like those last two to be in “their” fleet…

Try unchecking the box that says “Authenticated Sessions” before clearing.

Oh, yeah. Thanks.

using tool, click options and then you can set it to only clear certain things, keeping passwords or what you choose to keep.

tools, options, privacy, private data settings

will avoid this problem

Hi guys!

Newt on TDS huh? Did Jon ask him how the wimmins are getting along in Iraq with their infections and everything?

I don’t think there are any carriers named after Nixon, Harding, Hoover, or Buchanan.

Hey, Newtonusr!

yessiree.

Loo Hoo!

shoulda asked suz and newt before i started!

Wouldn’t it be interesting if Hillary took all of her anger about the blow job out on O’Liely.

*Poof*

I heard this soundbite on my local radio news station. Not a thing mentioned anywhere else. And it’s not like I was listening on some super secret ham radio. Why isn’t this reported more widely. It scares the doo doo out of me.

hehe…Billyboy talks about naming the sex toys.

Oh, what I wouldn’t give to be live on his show so I could ask, “Before I answer your question Bill, what have you named the latest vibrator you use on yourself?”

Nor, may we hope, will there be one named “G.W.Bush”…unless, of course, McSame gets elected…(shudder)

But isn’t there a Ronald Reagan? There’s a freaking George Bush airport. I know it’s not this one, but I still had to barf on my way to The Nation cruise in Fort Lauderdale. Then I had to stay in a hotel named “The Plantation”. I think it was a Marriot, but I can’t remember for sure.

Mary, I’ve been waiting to hear your Newt story…

if we ever get a g.w.bush, i hope it looks like the minnow after the storm

Do not stray until these questions are answered, since they always try to change the subject right away.

Usually shuts ‘em up.

You must be a lot of fun at parties.

I’m guessing Hillary will show Obama how it’s supposed to be done. What time is this spectacle? Anyone know?

hey eg, is it windy on your side of the hill? tis blowing steady on my side?

nada

The Lincoln was lurking nearby in the Indian Ocean, now it has moved into the Gulf, the Truman is relieving Enterprise, but, how long will they keep it on station…?

Not reported ’cause it happens all the gotdamn time.

I do need to say I used to support Hill, but I’ve been supporting (but not sending money to) Obama lately. This is getting fun!

how many more days does the world have to put up with Bush compensating for his lack of manhood?

I’ll be sure not to have Fox “News” on then. Of course, I NEVER do…

The other day, driving across northeast KS, I stopped at a bar on Main Street in a small town because it was the only place open within 30 miles that might have a restroom. Bought a beer to make myself a customer. Fox News was on. It reminded me of the scene in Easy Rider where they walk into that bar (or cafe?) and suddenly realize they are in the WRONG place…

lucky you – tis a cold northerly wind here

and uneasy rider

whoosh! the wind last week was like the infamous Le Mistral that drives artists earless…froze my face off nearly.

The mongerers are about to get their war on.

I was an Edwards supporter, then I ended up as an Obama delegate, i get to cast that vote this Saturday….!

That must have been creepy. When I retire, I hope to do America. Who knows now, though, with the cost of fuel.

moon phase calculator

Shakin’ the building here.

see comment 102.

Obama makes the mistake of legitimizing Fox News, and Hillary’s reaction is, “Damn, why didn’t I think of that? I cannot allow a Fox News gap! I must appear on Fox immediately, with someone even more hateful and vile! Get me Bill O’Reilly, stat!”

When you put it that way, I can’t figure it out, either. Even discounting the word of the anonymous Clinton staffer, it makes no sense. I don’t think she needs to be worried about alienating the blogs – they’ve already made up their minds and aren’t going to change them due to something this trivial. I just don’t see how she’s going to appeal to the sort of folks who watch Fox. All of them hate her guts. Why waste the time?

I would like to give a very loud shout-out to the folks who gave us

“show text”

Just so we don’t start taking stuff for granite the first week we get it….

By that standard, I’m in the wrong place quite often.

i keep getting the tap tap tap of branches dancing across my roof… just glad its not raining or else i would really be worried about power lines going down instead of just concerned

She just wants the chance to say she would have left the church, again.

Has anyone ever considered that Hillary may be a masochist?

I’ve been slow to say thanks for this plum.
You’re right,Teddy.
Thanks, Techs!

Heh, ya done took a wrong turn, pardner…! ;-)

all hail the powerful and all knowing tech crew

hip hip hurray!

Show techs!

The simple solutions are the most elegant.

Hey Eli,
Just a shout out — how are you?

Or she could have a high threshold of pain.

oh…you’re probably right. They’re going to pile on the Wright stuff again. ick.

I would just feel dirty going on his show.

I’ll bet people have wondered about that, for sure. She sure has been beaten up!

Oh yes! Thanks, Teddy and FDL.

Ha. Parties at my place are a lot like this:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=6NdAUnnU9Ac

Heh heh, suzanne! I’d forgotten all about that old Charlie Daniels song. Fortunately, it did not get that troublesome for me.

The pictures on that video of Charlie spreading his arms reminded me of this famous (around these parts) picture of ol’ John Brown…

same thing.

Hey Christine!

I’m good! Bit sleepy, plus a bit brain-fried from work.

tbogg has vastly improved on the “thrown under the bus” phrase, which is driving me insane.

Why do the rightwingers love/hate Hillary? Makes me so dang suspicious.

Oh, that’s great news. What was the tipping point for you?

But who was driving the bus and where was everyone else sitting?

dayamit, what does he have against civets?

Maybe it’s that they love *to* hate Hillary.

That’s the trouble with this country today – no-one ever wants to take civets classes.

Whistles!

Why do they love/hate Obama? When it suits their purposes, they’ll praise them; when it doesn’t, they’ll insult them. If I were they, and had no ethical compunctions (but then, I repeat myself), I’d want to make sure that neither of them had an easy time of it. So far, they seem to have managed.

We are having a great fireplace fire here! I’m working late tomorrow at the museum until 9:00 p.m. Hopefully, spring will follow.

Teddy, that phrase (threw under the bus) HAS driven me insane while watching MSNBC wonderful world of punditry lately…

I Wikipedia’ed it (no luck), Googled it and UnbanDictionaried it and found lots of definitions all pretty much the same, but nothing about its origins…

It sure does get tiresome

Does working late usually bring spring, then? Maybe I should try it sometime.

You might be a …fill in your choice… if…

You sit down with Richard Mellon Scaife
You sit down with Rupert Murdoch.
You sit down with Bill O’Rielly.

John McCain comes to mind, but…
This is pissing me off.

not really.

that’s because they all signed up for the sex ed classes, not knowing they were abstinence based instead of how to’s..

Also, there are absolutely no actual issues Americans care about which favor the GOP. None. Whatsoever.

Therefore, the GOP and their media enablers need to keep Americans away from their care about actual issues. In order to win.

As someone said earlier today, “Jeremiah Wright is this year’s gay marriage.”

I find it has a lot more entertainment potential when there are multiple people being sent under there at roughly the same time.

Hey, I’d just figure that the girls in the abstinence classes would be horny as all get out…

Very different thing, actually. In fact, I’d think that having a high threshold of pain would be a handicap for a masochist.

Bosnia.

I am going to see tbogg’s delightful image in my head whenever I hear it from now on, though.

Whenever an actual person says “under the bus” to me, I’m going to interrupt and ask, “Don’t you mean helicopter?”

A meme is born.

and you don’t think the girl’s don’t know that is what is being thought?

“Why do the rightwingers love/hate Hillary? Makes me so dang suspicious.”

They love her cause she is one of them without absolutely owning it. They hate her cause she is not totally one of them. They are unresolved. She is unresolved. Most dangerous.

Yay techs! Ya show up right good….

good night friends.

ok. not really but almost.

Or, like the eternal war on Xmas…!

pain free sleep wishes, tex

Goodnight, TexBetsy.

OK, thanks, Mary. Sorry I missed it earlier.

Ah, a maverick!

Aloha, Tex! May you sleep blissfully!

I do not agree. The reason a masochist needs to feel intense pain is because they are, for whatever reason, unable to feel normal pain.

nite tex.

What’s up, Doc?

I said that ealier today. Sure seems to be playing out that way, doesn’t it? It’s always amazing to me how coordinated all the messaging becomes across all media, and how quickly it spreads.

g’nite, tb – wishing you a pain-free sleep…

Yes, from the GOP’s point of view, the more distractions and “character issues”, the better. At least, that’s certainly true this election.

unfortunately we do have an eternal war on people and Bush/cheney want to keep it going so they can get their war hero elected and keep the investigations at bay.

It’s all about them anyway. Who cares about millions of other people?

Hi CT!

And wrt bonkers @ 268:

It’s always amazing to me how coordinated all the messaging becomes across all media, and how quickly it spreads.

Makes me wanna slam the flaccid Wurlitzer….

thanks y’all

Also, because I’m cranky and ranting again, did I miss it or is there really any ####### proof the Iranians are shipping weapons to Iraqis (who funny enough, want us out of their country and we just can’t take a hint)????

I mean, really?

Hey Chris, Suz, Eli, everyone.

Makes me wanna slam the flaccid Wurlitzer….

Sounds kinky. Is that another quote from the O’Loofah/Mackris transcript?

Hey. Unfortunately, it’s time for me to call it a night before I pass out on my keyboghwksgitihreopjf

nite eli

heh.

sometimes I think the Wurlitzer meme should be replaced by the mighty Player Piano…

seems a tad more apt, imho.

The Wikipedia entries on masochism and algolagnia (physical manifestation of masochism, to put it simply) seem to agree with that point. They just mention enjoying pain, not requiring more of it. The masochism entry isn’t particularly well sourced. The entry on pain threshold also fails to mention any relationship to masochism.

I’d never heard of such a thing before, either. It’s not my field of interest, though.

Goodnight, Eli.

I am not surprised. After seeing her sitting down with RICHARD MELLON SCAIFE, nothing will surprise me again.

It IS interesting, however, to see who defends this.

Lanny Davis? You there?

OK, I watched the video, which I had already seen, back when it was new. And I had forgotten the funniest part. When Phil said, about Cindy, “She has already taken the biggest blow any mother can take” and O’Reilly asks, “What?” hahahahahahahahahahahaha To O’Reilley, NOTHING could be worse than making HIM mad! Losing a son? Not even close!

Keep that war going….Invade what country next? We are in such a mess.

O’Reilly is a chicken. He never takes on anyone bigger than himself. He’s going to softball her to death. Just wait. She’s doing this because Obama interviewed with Wallace. There is nothing original or accomplished about Hillary. She is a classic ‘monkey see, monkey do’. This is a woman who takes credit for all her husband’s decisions. And Americans buy it.

in re: my 149
