Dugg by richardwb1

Is my laptop dead? Or perhaps I’ve really, really lost my job.

Dugg!
Thanks

lost your job?

No, I have not. Just jesting.

dugg and thanks richard, whoever you are

i’ve said my piece and am moving upstairs to es’s fine thread. he has a very powerful video up top and i’m gonna enjoy it instead of being in a pissing contest

double crap.. wrong thread

Hate when I do that Suz… sometimes it is hard to remember where you are typing and who you are answering… must be the food /S

EPU from last thread

in response to bigbrother @ 137 (show text)
.Muchias Gracias Senora!

Senor Dude!
Still this is an untested potion please google neem oil and tea tree oil do not drink this I smashed my little toe a while ago and this should cure the nail toe nail fungus I got after that. This potion should cure skin conditions and hopefully GOP Zombie ism.
Do not put on open cuts without googling first.

George is happy now. As the MSM finally tells us….

George Bush has destroyed America.

When he visits with Poppy and Bar there is no longer any doubt, none whatsoever, who the Biggest Swingin’ Dick in the Fambly is.

It’s George. He’s destroyed the nation his dad fought for in WWII and his mom struggled to bring all those kids into so they’d have enough capos to run the Fambly. All for naught.

The nation is a smoking ruin and the Dems are plannin’ a big party to celebrate GeeW’s departure to Paraguay.

I doan see me no upstairs….

Oh noooooooooooooooooes!

I’m lost!

Help!

Help!

dayam, no utube of the austin lounge lizards industrial strength tranquilizer

I’m glad you cleared that one up… here I was thinking it was some kind of an exotic drinkable potion or something like that”>) Wheww

well I just hate it when someone enters the room and starts correcting people. Jeez.

since i only write about one diary a year, i hope you-all won’t mind a link: Looking back at FISA’s year in the House

I can’t thank you enough for that diary, selise.

dayam, selise that needs recommends

orange pups - go recommend that diary for selise

Christ, selise - that’s a holy eruption over there. I can’t wait for the rest!

Hey did anyone cover this yet. Sorry to be a pooper, but I wish the aussies had been at G8 to give Bush the bum salute again.

President George Bush signed off with a defiant farewell over his refusal to accept global climate change targets at his last G8 summit.

As he prepared to fly out from Japan, he told his fellow leaders: “Goodbye from the world’s biggest polluter.”
President Bush made the private joke in the summit’s closing session, senior sources said yesterday. His remarks were taken as a two-fingered salute from the President from Texas who is wedded to the oil industry. He had given some ground at the summit by saying he would “seriously consider” a 50 per cent cut in carbon emissions by 2050.

Oh hey, I gotta check out Selise’s FISA diary. I was busy emoting over the world’s biggest toddler.

Selise,

Ive recommended your diary to everyone I know as “the must-read of all must-reads.” Damn, that is some fine work!!!

Regards,
Wigwam

Yes the thought that someone might drink it scared me too untested potions like is the reason why we need a functioning FDA.

i didn’t even know there was a length limit to daily kos diaries. that is until i tried to put the whole thing in one! i have to wait 24 hours before posting another diary - but then i’ll post the rest (i think i can make it fit *g*)

OMG, EW. That was so powerful…I’m so freaking happy to see it and that the German people are seeing it.

Wow.

Fellow FDLers, please recommend Selise’s diary. People need to read it!!! That’s some damn good stuff.

Woops, ES.

Done…

thank you! - it’s really just the best summation i could make (with lots of help from my friends here) of everything we’ve watched and discussed as it was happening.

i hope someone will do the same for the senate.

Selise, great work! Going to give it a very serious read in the am.

I loved it.. and the German was such an excellent touch. Glad you liked it too. She’ so powerful.. just hearing her and those words gave me goose pimples.

That’s is some awesome work! I really like the snapshot where you say which bills passed and break down the dem/rep blocking/passing part. You ought to send it to Harry and Nancy and insist on enough time to read the damn bills. Good grief.

well done!

I recommended it. ;)

amazing, inspirational video, ES. thank you!

selise that took some work!! Great job!

Because the Night Belongs to Lovers is still one of my fave songs to belt out in the car when it plays on the radio…the Patti Smith version of course. I like Natalie Merchant but her version just doesn’t hold a candle to Patti’s.

long ass day and i’m wiped

g’nite pups

Night Suz hope you ARE going to sleep and not back to scrubbing down the house!!

‘nite Suzanne

nite suz
get some rack time

sweet dreams Suzanne

twill be the 5th (or is it 4th) night in a row that i am going to bed with dishes in the sink

*poof*

Nite Suz!

Nite Suz!

I didn’t discover Horses until the early eighties. One of those artists who changes everything when one finds her.. for me anyway.

I’m sure you won’t need Mr. Welk then to help you to sleep.

I’m out too. see ya pups.

Recomended!

Whoo hoo Suz you have earned it in spades!!

OK, this is what I like to do: listen to this song and imagine I am the bass line.
But it may be too late at night for that. You’ll feel all roller-skatey.

…as Procter & Gamble stock drops precipitously.

nite folks!

And I thought I was the only one who liked Some Girls!

707

LMAO :>)

nite dosido
nite things

To late?!!! I can actually remember falling asleep and waking up to that song. *g*

Poor, mega-corporation. Let’s all shed some crocodile tears for’em.

Eureka, that’s a real gem up top.
“Eureka Springs - not eclectic enough.” :-)

Are you kidding The Stones are one of my all time favorites…and this one has a great Bass line… makes me want to start plucking on my Kramer Bass…
Here is another Time waits for no one

Hi Selise. That tells people how it needs to be done in detail by our side. As you might know, I posted a timeline a few days ago, but it was mostly dedicated to Obama’s statements: http://www.dailykos.com/storyo.....466/547691

The place where we intersect, and I might have some details useful to your point about the rush-job on H.R. 6304 in the house is the stuff I got from here, which I found very interesting: http://irregulartimes.com/inde.....this-bill/

So it has a link to the first printing of H.R. 6304 at 5:12 PM on June 19. And then it has a link to Thomas, the House calendar, which shows that H.R. 6304 was submitted to the House 24 hours later, at 535 on June 19, and that the House passed it at 12:48 the next afternoon, i.e., less than 24 hours later. This was the Democratic Party, under the new leadership of Barak Obama, in action: open and transparent government.

In any case the above has the appropriate links.

Again, superb work, and many thanks.

Regards,
Wigwam

Is that a challenge? hehe

The funny and sad thing is, I don’t remember hearing this song until last year, on YouTubes.
Don’t ask me what I was listeing to, I have no idea.

My friends, stop whining.

Patty Smith…wow written in german no less…on to the Hague. I want the name of every person who died as a result of the war, the lies, the torture, the black sights, the renditions on a hude list…every nationality. Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld, Addington, Fieth and the rest of the (alleged) murders given equal justice under the law as they have prosecuted others. Since their policy is an eye for an eye (AIPAC)frog walking down the aisle seems appropriate.
I want the cost of the damage to infrastructure, the national treasury and our armed forces.
The costs in lives, money and political ca[ital in the world.
King George and Nottingham Sheriff Mukasey and Gonzales brought to the bar of justice.
Three cheers for Patty Smith and three cheers for ES and a well deserved thank you. Where did you find this?

bite me

Greg - if you saw this from last night on Countdown, you probably realize that he’s got to stop calling people that, and soon. There are, in fact, very few “friends” of John McCain.
McCain gets absolutely smoked.

I just happened across it this afternoon.. Doesn’t appear to have been on youtube very long nor have many folks seen it, yet.

It’s going to be something I listen to for a patriotic energy boost for a very long time.

Rachel came into her own on Countdown tonight (Friday). Most of the week, she had been a bit hesitant about snapping it down. Tonight, she took no prisoners, and I loved it. Richard Wolfe was almost cringing: “What dare I say?”

These media folks don’t want to offend any of their sources, but they don’t want to look like fools. To most questions they answer; “A little bit of this; a little bit of that.” Tonight they percieved that Rachel was out for blood, and they took their queue. it was beautiful. I want to seem more of that. With a whip!

That’s hilarious. Or would be if he were not running for president…

As they say in sports, this election is Obama’s to lose. (But don’t underestimate him.)

They have seemed a bit “off the leash” since she started her fill-in stint.
If ever MSNBC needed an excuse to replace almost anybody there…

Squirm

Straight Talk Mac the Hack gets all fidgity like a child because of the subject of birth control.

Grow up my friend.,

Jeebus, imagine a cabinet peopled with Phil Uberpud Gramm, Confirmed Dillweed Lyndsey Graham and Wonderdouche Joe Lieberman….

I’d be vomitting for 4 years straight.

thanks wigwam! i updated my diary with a link to yours. much appreciated.

unfortunately, you haven’t be able to see the detailed timeline that goes with my diary. it was too long to include - so i will have to make it a separate diary tomorrow and provide a link to it in today’s diary (where the appendix is supposed to be).

here are some of the relevate bits regarding the issue of how long do the reps have to read (haha) the bills:

At approximately 11:45 am, Pelosi holds a press conference (C-SPAN archives) to praise the new bill and the secret negotiations.

At 5:08 pm, House Rules Committee Chair Louise Slaughter files the report from the Committee on Rule H.RES.1285. Miraculously, it appears she is able to do this before the House Rules Committee has actually reported out the Rule.

At 5:35 pm, the House Rules Committee Reports out Rule H.RES.1285, “H.R.6304 – FISA Amendments Act of 2008.” This Rule introduces H.R.6304 and is a closed rule that limits debate to 1 hour. In an act of cowardice, it is passed in committee by voice vote.

- snip -

Friday, June 20, 2008 (floor summary)

At 9:51 am, Michael Arcuri introduces H.RES.1285 for one hour of debate:

We can all agree that the world changed on September 11, 2001. Our Nation faces new threats on new fronts. What we’re doing here today is proof that we can come together, Republicans and Democrats, to provide our Nation’s Intelligence Community with the necessary tools to fight terrorism while protecting civil liberties of Americans.

After eight minutes of debate, at 9:59 am, H.Res.1285 is passed in a further act of cowardice by voice vote.

At 10:48 am, The House proceeds to one hour of debate on H.R.6304.

- snip -

At 12:25 pm voting begins. At 12:48 pm voting is complete and H.R.6304 passes 293 - 129 (Rs: 188 - 1, Ds: 105 - 128).

anyway, you can read the rest tomorrow and comment/correct it then… (if you are willing).

i was watching for this, because something similar happened last august when the house leadership gamed the procedures to make sure the PAA passed (but not the Democratic bill!).

I’d be storming the capitol steps with Patti Smith blaring on a portable CD player.

Your comment is visible, selise.
Hard-refresh now Pups.

. Miraculously, it appears she is able to do this before the House Rules Committee has actually reported out the Rule.

SO kind of you to use the word miraculous.

YGM, I hope.

thank you! i forgot about the link limit - boy, i must be tired.

many thanks for releasing it from moderation purgatory.

LOL - i was wondering if anyone would catch that. maybe not if it was buried in pages and pages of timeline.

selise!!! I am so proud of you. What great work you’ve been doing. Highly recommended!

yep - got it!

Highly recommended!

Does KOS let you do that?? Huh huh ??

hey, i don’t know if this has been covered, but melanie mattson, who wrote just a bump in the beltway, has passed away.

I copied the analysis and comments to MS Word am am sending it to every congress critter and the local dems. It is a Disederata of Shame. it came wrapped in a flag of liberty. I still want to see a list of ALL the war dead so it can be send out as well.

Wow.
Rest in peace, Melanie
Thanks Skippy

skippy - so sad to hear of melanie’s passing. but thank you for bringing us news.

I don’t recall her. Bless her heart. R.I.P.

Dugg

thank you! - it’s really just the best summation i could make (with lots of help from my friends here) of everything we’ve watched and discussed as it was happening.

i hope someone will do the same for the senate.

Well here is at least the Senators who were bought by the TELCOS:

4th Amendment Hit Squad from http://www.bluetidalwave.com/2.....-list.html

On Wednesday July 9, 2008 our U.S. Constitution, specifically the 4th amendment was officially torched by the U.S. government. The Democratic leadership in control of the 110th Congress lighted the definitive match to burn up every citizen’s civil liberties while a giddy unpopular President George Bush and his highly voter despised rubber stamp Republican caucus held the gas can in bravado glee.

The world would be a better place if Bush was as an effective leader of the globe as he is at whipping the Congressional Democrats in legislative battles.

Twenty One Senate Democrats voted to give final approval today to broadening the government’s spy powers and providing legal immunity for the phone companies that took part in the illegal Bush wiretapping program.

You are Too Much!

Has katymine cut off our food porn?

Yes. Our water ops committee was given a description of three RFP reponses for our water rate study (for increases). We got it the day before. Our chair supported a special meeting to give us more time. That is what Pelosi, Hoyer and Reid should have done. It was done behind the scenes during the Independence Day celebration how ironic.
Why would a Dem use Repuke legislation. They have their own leg staffs to write appropriate laws. And Bonds bill came out of the White House! Treason against the people and their constitution?

7 more days relaxing on Crete…
I wouldn’t check in either.

That was excellent. What a freaking dolt McCane is.

Me neither. But we can whine…

Yup. And she was clearly pissed off at the Obama campaign for not jumping all over Gramm’s stupidity.

Lieberman’s Wonderdouche. I have dibs on drawing the logo.

Perhaps she’s in Greece, Feta up to here, with us. /s

I couldn’t decide if he was scared of the issue or flummoxed by the question and having not the faintest clue as to what position he may have taken in the past.
Rest assured, he will attempt to take both sides now, and find a way to blame the fracas on “the wimmin” in the press.

For someone with an NARAL rating of ZERO.. He’s just praying he never gets asked that question again.

No, just recommend. Which I did!

bigbrother - if you wait until tomorrow you can get the appendix too (it is the detailed timeline).

nahant - thanks! i added the link to the updates.

my fellow pups - good night, i’ve hit the wall. thanks (especially to ES) for letting me discuss the diary. it will probably be year before i write another.

That endorsement used to mean something, too.
NARAL Endorses Al Wynn Over Donna Edwards
Not anymore.

Well I’m looking forward to part two myself..

G’nite, selise.. rest well.

Yeah.. I don’t normally give much credit to NARAL.. But a ZERO is pretty telling.

Agreed. I’m sure RGJoe gets at least a one.

Good sleep, selise.

Glad you are helping to spread the word about these whores who are bought an paid for by the Telcos…

Watching Donna sit in the big chair while Kuchinich read new articles of impeachment in the House this week.. Sure felt warm and fuzzy.. like an actual accomplishment of some kind.

Ops good night selise. Sleep well.. you worked very hard on that Diary
