Jane!

o m’gahd
can’t wait to see this!

Woohoo Jane!!

*waiting for video to load*

Ooooh, I wish I could see the video, damn! I’m at work but I’ll be home soon to watch you on ABC!

Go Jane!!

“”

McSweatFlop’s straight squawk express

Jane you spanked that girl on national TV!

In fact, I think you spanked her effectively enough that McCain feels the sting on his own arse!

Jane, Jane, you brainy little goddess! I worship at your feet. How very marvelous that you are finally getting some well-deserved camera time. Things are looking up. Most impressive. Love and more love.

Biff! Bam! Pow!

Smgumby said it right. You snapped Amanda so hard Cindy McCain felt it!

Hmm, was she sputtering there?

Jane, your contraries are expecting the latest talking point to come out of your mouth; but instead, they get questions that require critical thought to answer. Your contraries are not prepared for your clear-thinking style. Brava!!

That was so good!

Five stars. Absolutely in control, poor Amanda…

Hi, Jane–Marcy’s giggling over “Sugar Momma” now, I’m sure!

Umm, this has probably been answered many times over, but who did the “Firedoglake” theme music that plays on the YouTubes?

Done beautifully, Ms. Jane.

“desperate”

wow, here’s the elephant in the room;

[jane] edwards pionted out that neither she nor mccain would be covered under his plan

[mccain pundit in the backround] GOOD

that’s the elephant in the room, they only want wealthy people able to keep their family healthy

I’d say that the “Sugar Momma Express” line got the point across so well that even Amanda had to chuckle at the audacity and brilliance of it.

Well done! Well done!

Well done, Jane. I heard the little wingnut giggle at Sugar Momma Express. McCain has so many issues the far right fantasy folks just can’t defend him. We need to bring the million ton shit hammer down on McCain. No time like the present.

The revolution will not be televised. But you can see it on da intertoobz.

Outstanding Jane!

Jane, you’re fantastic on tv. You absolutely nailed it.

More please! Woo Hoo!

This lady is getting really good at showing the other side how to suffer the truth. You are killing them Jane!

and that’s what democrats are gonna face and they have to be ready;

[mccain or pundit] we are going to use the free market model for health care

[democratic candidate or pundit]

and that is how detached mccain is from reality, there is no such thing as “the free market” a market cannot possibly exist without regulation, what politicians mean when they claim “free market” is regulations should exist to protect the industry but none to protect Americans”

John McCain supports torture of human beings by the United States of America.

John McCain:
Worse than Bush

I must say as well, jane has an incredible presence and is an excellant pundit for progressives

dear jane,

a president who think it’s their job to control the country is NOT a good thing.

thank you.
selise

p.s. otherwise – GREAT job.

Right on.

If Michelle Obama were Barack’s Sugar Momma, you can bet the Right Wing noise machine would be saying “Who is REALLY going to be the President, if she’s paying for everything? Is THIS democracy, when a woman can BUY her husband the presidency?”

But of course IOKIYAR

I love Good News on a Friday.
Thank you Jane Hamsher.

*standing on chair clapping*

Damn, that was fine! I don’t recognize the interviewer, was this on a local ABC station or the network (I hope)?

Sugar Momma Express will become the campaign catch phrase. It’s too good not to.

yay jane! That was terrific. i woulda cussed, though, especially at the end on that dumbass gas tax holiday shit.

here’s a great bit when we talk about “the straight talk express”, got this from think progress;

McCain in 2003: Americans ‘need some straight talk’ about ‘how long we’re going to be’ in Iraq.

Jane, you look and sound fantastic!

I love the term and will do all I can to get it into the public lexicon in Jacksonville.

Great use of the word “elitist”!

Once again the progressive can’t get her first statement out without the Right Wing Tool barking her interruption.

By the way, Jane, thank you, thank you, thank you for NOT TALKING THROUGH YOUR SINUSES. When Amanada Carpenter it’s like a pair of woodpeckers going at my eardrums…

A huge success, Jane! Rachel Maddow, look out!

See! We Can Be Heard!
We are a community.
Oh, am I speaking out of my you know what?
Thank God for Jane and FDL, anyways….

Maybe it should also be “*unt Express” or “Trollop Express”..

I can’t get over that the Pr*ck said that to his wife..

Sugar Momma Express is exactly what it is though, because he’s a “user”, an abuser, and a hypocritical, cold, opportunistic, adultrous, golddigger.

Yeah, it pretty much sounded like she was holding her nose while defending McBush.

digg it!

((((((((((JANE))))))))))

Très bien fait Mme. Hamsher. The only thing I’d add is to tie McSame to W. You did (a bit) in your last seconds in the video and reminding Americans that a 3rd bush term is what St. John offers is crucial. Otherwise you look and sound amazing.

Can’t help imagining Amanda being just as cheerful if she or a loved one were found to have a condition that their insurance won’t cover. Oh well, that’s the free market!

Ummmm, you said it.
So, do we have our talking points for the General?
You’re hired!

Wow, Jane ACTUALLY got her LAST statement out without Amanda Carpenter interrupting it. They must have cut off Amanada’s microphone early since the segment was ending.

LOL…and…add racist.

That too!
We’ll keep that list open.
Ha.

that’s what they do, the wingers, 2 absolutely desperate maneuvers that let the world know they’re swamped and foundering and losing a verbal match.

Do they argue using logic and facts? Heck no! None to be had.

1. They filibuster if they have smarts enough and a compliant host who lets them into babble into commercial.

2. Ultimate disaster/panic time brings every blasted one into giggle mode.
No joke. You just watch. It’s pathetic.

Keep that calm, cool & sensible personna going, along with that wonderful smile, and take no prisoners Jane. Without so much as a stutterstep!
You’re one amazing gal. *wagging head in admiration of a master*

Oh, Amanda… Somebody get that girl some ice.
Brava, Jane!

Jane, your next mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get Chris Matthews to say “Sugar Momma Express” on Hardball. I think if he heard it, he’d use it.

The best defense is a good offense. With McCain I think being extremely offensive (tactically, not verbally *sigh*) is the way to go.

The music is the opening of Vanessa Daou’s “The Long Tunnel Of Wanting You,” from the album “Zipless,” with lyrics by Erica Jong.

Reason #10,489 John McCain is an idiot

Senator McCain thinks the effort to preserve our horticultural record and a potential treasure trove for medicinal science is a waste of money.

http://scienceblogs.com/chaoti…..hannellink

Wonder if Olbermann will pick up “Sugar Momma Express”

Priceless.

John McCain – the best that Monsanto’s money can buy.

Excellent Jane! Terrific, articulate and take no prisoners. I don’t believe I’ve heard too many guests reply to the other guest – “That’s crazy” when clearly, things are completely insane!

OT. but shit. via laura rozen at war and piece:

Secret Bush “Finding” Widens War on Iran
Democrats Okay Funds for Covert Ops
Andrew Cockburn

Six weeks ago, President Bush signed a secret finding authorizing a covert offensive against the Iranian regime that, according to those familiar with its contents, “unprecedented in its scope.”

Bush’s secret directive covers actions across a huge geographic area – from Lebanon to Afghanistan – but is also far more sweeping in the type of actions permitted under its guidelines – up to and including the assassination of targeted officials. This widened scope clears the way, for example, for full support for the military arm of Mujahedin-e Khalq, the cultish Iranian opposition group, despite its enduring position on the State Department’s list of terrorist groups.

Similarly, covert funds can now flow without restriction to Jundullah, or “army of god,” the militant Sunni group in Iranian Baluchistan – just across the Afghan border — whose leader was featured not long ago on Dan Rather Reports cutting his brother in law’s throat.

Other elements that will benefit from U.S. largesse and advice include Iranian Kurdish nationalists, as well the Ahwazi arabs of south west Iran. Further afield, operations against Iran’s Hezbollah allies in Lebanon will be stepped up, along with efforts to destabilize the Syrian regime.

All this costs money, which in turn must be authorized by Congress, or at least a by few witting members of the intelligence committees. That has not proved a problem.

read the whole thing – i so hope it’s not true.

p.s. 6 weeks ago was 3/21 – right around the time when fallon resigned (3/11) and the uss lincoln was deployed to the ME (3/15)

read the whole thing – i so hope it’s not true.

elections are looking less and less likely

I wonder just how much of this money will be actually spent for its intended use. Any group that wants to align itself with the US can get tons of money on a promise. Money flows in to many thanks and toasts of tea and the mujahedin laugh all the way home, thinking “stupid Americans.”

Jane – I think I’m in love. I knew you were good, but watching you shows you’re great!

I’ll have to keep it a secret from my Wife because she will get jealous.

Jane… Where are ya?

Come on out and take a bow… er courtsey…. er whatevah!

;~P

hmmm, do you think we can get Jane on KO???

Fine thought, as always! If he saw the clip I can’t imagine he would hesitate for a nanosecond to share it with his devoted viewers. Anyone have email addresses for KO and Jon Stewart?

It’s called ‘cherry picking.’ Health insurers don’t want to insure people who are going to cost them money, because predicting how much they’ll cost is *very* difficult.

So they only want to insure people who are currently healthy, because the actuarial work on them is actually much easier. It’s also more profitable.

That is what gets me, too…he can call his wife a couple of really nasty words…but he sure wants to be able to have access to her assets. He’s rude; he’s crude, and he’s damn ungrateful, too.

Thank you very much. I had fun.

Really! Who wouldn’t want Jane on their show!
Sugar Mama Express!
Let it ring loud and clear!
Do I feel this movement excelerating towards the general?
Let’s go!

Just another Good ole boy Republican gold digger with a potty mouth and a touch of senility.

Great ad in the making:

two flip-flops walking by themselves and the words appear on the screen: “Sugar Momma Express”

I’m sure an ad professional can make it great.

I thought you did a marvelous job. Very concise and, well, just perfect.

Jane, you made my day! Please do more Tee-vee!

I’m sendin’ the youtube linky thingy to my VERY conservative uncle in Topeka, KS

I usually get *crickets*

We’ll see.

Didn’t a couple of Congresscritters say they would call for Bush’s impeachment if the US attacked Iran???? Well, get on it Congress!!!

Didn’t a couple of Congresscritters say they would call for Bush’s impeachment if the US attacked Iran???? Well, get on it Congress!!!

if this is what it takes to bring impeachment on the table then I hope it is true

A drive-by atta girl here. Great talking points Jane! And you got Amanda to laugh (nervously I hope) at the “Sugar Momma Express”. Let’s hope it has the legs of a Black Widow Spider!

The BomB! and you got the last word!!! that was too fabulous.

if the report is true, the dems ok’ed it.

million ton shit hammer

My first post. lol.

Welcome artmann! Hope to hear more from you.

Excellent. I thought “wealthy, elite wife” & “he has real character issues” were great also.

”The president has no authority to unilaterally attack Iran, and if he does, as Foreign Relations Committee chairman, I will move to impeach,” said Biden, whose words were followed by a raucous applause from the local audience.

Biden said he is in the process of meeting with constitutional law experts to prepare a legal memorandum saying as much and intends to send it to the president.”

They will use the Kyl/Lieberman thingy….

“crack open anwar?”

Sounds downright biblical…

We’ll see how I fit in. I’m not a Democrat or a liberal, but I share a lot of your concerns.

I’ve been trying to google for K.O.’s email address.
Failing. Does anyone here have it?

welcome

Those jumped out at me too.

WTG, Jane!!! You landed some good ones.

Well, it worked for me.

Will McSame’s new nickname be McKept?

Thanks. I’ve been reading for a long time. The million ton made me post.

Welcome.

Rest assured not everyone here is a dem. I’ll call myself reformed. I’m a “rule of law” liberal myself. Just want the government to conform to the constitution. stuff like that. I certainly don’t want four more years of bush.

I dunno ’bout that… but I just cracked open a cold cereal malt beverage.

slàinte

;~P

It’s a big tent here. We’ve got people all over the spectrum. You should have seen how many gun experts we had who commented very specifically on matters related to Cheney shooting that guy in the face.

Ode to McArtifical Sugar Bomb:

The minute you walked in the joint
I could see you were a man of distraction
A real big spinner
Hood-looking, so refined
Say wouldn’t you like to know what’s going on in his mind?
***(”trollop! c*nt!”)***

So let me get right to the point
I don’t pop my Bork for every guy I see
Hey Big Splenda
‘xplain “duh”.
little time with me.

Artmann,
If we were all the same, wouldn’t the world be a boring place?
Glad you “came out” — just kidding.
We all need to work together.
PS. I have really good friends who are not Dems…but, we stick to what we share in common.
What the world needs now…is Love, sweet Love.
And, friends with common concerns.

What is with this stupid gas tax holiday anyway? It’s not like it’s buy all you want and we pay the sales tax at your local hardware type of thing. It’s not a rebate. Correct me if I’m wrong but the gas tax holiday has hardly any consumer benefit. that’s my perception.

I hope someone comes up with a concise soundbite for that.

LOL!

Ha!

That’s one of the best things about the lake, you don’t have to fit in, they even tolerate me!

Terrific job Jane. Your answers were tight and unlike your adversary, you stopped talking after you made your point. That always gets people’s attention.

David Gregory’s new show came on a few minutes ago. I’ve never been fond of Tony Blakely, he’s one of my least favorites among many right wingers, but I need to go on record to first ask if he’s been sick lately, like within the last few days. If not, I would say he looks worse than usual, and I would say if he hasn’t had a stroke, I think maybe his body is getting ready to. His face looks contorted like someone who has recently had a stroke.

He blogs at KOS occasionally (I think he did today), but you can try here for countdown">countdown@msnbc.com">countdown. Or here">KOlbermann@msnbc.com">here for MSNBC email.

wow, screwed those linkies up, but you can tell what they are.

See…if these “guys” can do it…there is a chance for world peace *g*:

Olbermann home page at msnbc.com

thank you.
(I always read your name in my head as some gumby.)

gaelic?

Welcome.

I’m a revolutionary.

Thank you, Jane. A sane voice, a wimpy moderator and a bimbo. I think the public knows which of the three they’d like to support.

That is absolutely awesome.

nope… just pick up expressions from hither and yon… sometimes it’s tagalog, sometimes bongology. ya just never know

;~P

M.J. Gumby if we’re being all formal.

My brain hurts!

I should qualify that and give the moderator several KO Points (like Friedman Units, only positive) for inviting you, raising some of the most obvious issues about McCain, and balancing the talk time between the you two. Brian Williams would have spent all but fifteen seconds talking about himself.

sounds a lot like the toast I heard in the highlands of Scotland.

Jane, that was impressive.

:)
Can I take off my tux, now?
Hippie girls don’t usually get formal.
But, ya never know.

I just googled, it is gaelic *g*

it is the shorten version of Slainte Mhath

but here is another to add to your list: Saude

Well, the S is my wifes first initial, the M is my first initial, Gumby is a tattoo I have on my… um, it’s a tattoo have. Smgumby. Anyway, SM are coincidentally her first initials, so when we got separate pages ie: Myspace etc. she took SMgumby and I took MJgumby, but I was already registered everywhere as smgumby. And there ya have it.

‘twould be!

…and in Tagalog:

Mabuhay!

;~P

…and in Bongology:

‘ere!

;~P

OMG !!! JANE ROCKS!!!! McGiggolo can not be happy

O/T
Via TPM: Hillary Airs Another Indiana Ad Hitting Obama On Gas Tax

The last-minute ad, which went up on the Friday before election day, says Hillary’s gas tax holiday would “save families $8 billion,” and adds: “Barack Obama says that’s just pennies.”

more here

Somebody please question her as to where the money for infrastructure repairs is supposed to come from, how does it save familes 8 billion and hurt the oil companies and if she is so gung ho for it, why not make it permanent?

prost *g*

You have to look each other in the eye when saying this or you are doomed to 7 years bad sex

Further evidence of a misspent childhood…

LOL

All right… THAT’S IT!!!!

I’m on my way to Texas. You can run, but you can’t hide…

(How do you make a REALLY big smiley emoticon?)

;~P

the last bit about OIL was teh spectacular too

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v…..re=related

prost ex… means empty you glass… usually used during consuming massive quantities of good German Bier.. I know I had my share when I was there:>)

Wazzat my mistake?

Delurking to say, wow! you knocked it out of the park. i wonder if there is some way to publicize Ian’s comparison of healthcare to police or other services regarded as essential.

So now she takes McSame’s gas tax, then scripts his general election ads for him.

Go Hillary…

You did great!!!! And indeed you did honor emptywheel.

Jane! Get thee on teevee every day!

Jane,wonderful, just plain wonderful, thank you.

possibly but is this administration is depraved enough to do it on their own

they use it for hard alcohol too! I lived there for 3 years and spent much of the winters in bars *g*

Nope, just giving you the protocol *g*

yeah, woo-freakin-hoo

Loved the framing with adjectives. Let no noun be unaccompanied by one when describing McBush!

That’s your best appearance I’ve seen so far Jane! I like the developing of quick bullet point jabs at McCain and the republicans. Well done. You mentioned Bush too, which is important to keep connecting the two together every chance you get.

Good job, Jane! As for McCain’s health care ‘plan’, where people with pre-existing conditions probably won’t be covered, how about polling conservatives with a question,’Would you very much mind dying because you were denied coverage?’ Chances are, they would.

Fine, fine job! (stands on chair, applauds)

Yeah. Sugar Momma Express, that was great. You handled it brilliantly. Hopefully you’ll get another chance soon!

Wow. Just wow. On every level; she couldn’t even muster a sputter in response.

Boy, that Amanda creature sure likes to hear herself talk, and I thought the “host” was negligent in giving her more time than he gave you.

But you took those lemons & made . . . a lemon meringue pie, and threw it in her face. [Mods — not too violent? I’m only speaking figuratively.]

You were great.

Great job Jane.

Brilliant job Jane! That is a primer for any one showing up on one of these programs about how to stay on message and deliver effectively! The TownHall Blogger looked to be spewing just talking points, and did not deliver well.

superb.
you are grreat, Jane.

(is ABC becoming civilized? or what)

Great job Jane!!

Where the hell did the video go to this post? Hmmmmmmm….did the video make McCrazy cry and he had it pulled? What an elitist asshole if he did!

Sigh…I think we’re SOL, Kayl, I tried refreshing the page, and couldn’t bring it up…

Good job
