Busy busy!
have fun.

What was Christy’s question?

What was the answer?
Lol!
I’ll have to crank it to eleven and listen again.

Darn, really couldn’t hear. Any chance of a rough paraphrase?

At the end he talked about Florida and Michigan being allowed back in, or to that effect.

I didn’t know Bobby Kennedy Jr was an African American female. /s

Didn’t sound like Kennedy but hard to hear … “Ring of Fire” Kennedy? I am a HUGE fan of his from that.

EW, you sure you got the right video?

Tiny speakers, in a shop with air tools, I am lucky I heard THAT much!

Lol!

We are fixing the video, thanks for your patience.

Does anyone know what time Kennedy speaks tonight?

Bobo on the NewsHour saying that the Dems have to keep the election about young and old, not get into rich vs. poor. They’re scared shitless that people will wake up and vote their economic self-interest.

I hope anyone looking at the media will catch some of Hannity. I do not know if his radio SH** is same as tv; I just occ. hear him on car radio. He is into big smear Obama…calls Michelle something like “mean
America” Michelle; talks about the dangerous Obama we do not know, etc. Really slimy. He needs to be taken on for outrageous.

I can’t believe he doesn’t gag at what comes out of his mouth

Thanks to all of you for the obvious heavy lifting going on there. Don’t know how y’all will keep it up for 4 more days.

Why’re you such a tool?

I think he actually does sometimes. ;)

Ya know, I think we should just empty our pockets and give it all to the wealthiest, winningest POW we love best…John McCain. /major Snark

money sir. money sir
two bags full

one for the master
one for McCain
one for the whiny boy

lol!

If people woke up and voted their economic self-interest, Republics would never win any elections. That’s why Republics work so hard to make elections about other issues. The Democrats let them do that, time after time. The pouting of Bill Clinton and the demands for praise by Hillary Clinton says that the Democrats are ready to let it happen once again.

Nancy Keenan Joe Lie’s best buddy speaking. I’m jeering her.

Was there actually audio with the clip?

Sorry about the screwup, everyone. It’s all fixed now.

“…Americans are the best-entertained, least-informed people on the planet….”

Great interview, Christy. Get that camerawoman another beer!

OT

Jane Hamsher, Glenn Greenwald, and Amy Goodman trying to get into the Blue Dogs party last night. From Democracy Now!

AT&T Throws Party to Support Dems Who Voted to Grant Telecoms Immunity for Illegal Domestic Wiretapping

…

AMY GOODMAN: This is not for the Democratic National Convention?

UNIDENTIFIED: Go ahead. Go to the other side of the property, where the rest of the public can stand, please.

UNIDENTIFIED: Here comes an officer to talk to you.

AMY GOODMAN: OK. You know, but we’re confused. We’re press for the DNC to cover the Democratic National Convention, and I’m just wondering—

UNIDENTIFIED: Unfortunately, I’m just telling you what I’ve been told.

AMY GOODMAN: And what have you been told?

UNIDENTIFIED: I need you guys over there or over there.

AMY GOODMAN: So are you saying there’s no press allowed in?

UNIDENTIFIED: Correct. I’m saying that it’s a private party, is what I’m saying.

AMY GOODMAN: So what is the party about?

PARTY PARTICIPANT: No idea. Thank you.

AMY GOODMAN: How did you get invited?

PARTY PARTICIPANT: No idea.

AMY GOODMAN: Hi. Can I ask you about the party inside?

PARTY PARTICIPANT: That’s right. Thank you.

AMY GOODMAN: Can I ask about the party and who invited you? Are you guys delegates?

PARTY PARTICIPANT: Hi. How are you?

AMY GOODMAN: Good

PARTY PARTICIPANT: No. No.

GLENN GREENWALD: I’m Glenn Greenwald from Salon.com, and this is Jane Hamsher from FireDogLake, and we were here to try and cover the event, at first, and have press passes, and we’re trying to gain access. And we were told we couldn’t get in even.

AMY GOODMAN: But you have press passes.

GLENN GREENWALD: We have a press pass.

JANE HAMSHER: We have legitimate press passes.

GLENN GREENWALD: We have legitimate press passes from the convention.

JANE HAMSHER: Issued by the DNC.

AMY GOODMAN: Are you going into the party? Are you going into the party?

PARTY PARTICIPANT: Yeah.

AMY GOODMAN: Can you talk about who invited you?

PARTY PARTICIPANT: Excuse me.

AMY GOODMAN: We’re press.

GLENN GREENWALD: Yeah, it’s amazing. And essentially, we probably tried to interview twenty-five, thiry people going in, and every last person refused to even give their name, identify themselves, say what they’re here for, what the event is for. It’s more secretive than like a Dick Cheney energy council meeting. I mean, it’s amazing.

…

Hear! Hear! For another Beer!!

WOW! Kennedy sure laid it all out. He’s got that fairness doctrine / media consolidation / pursuit of corporate/religious right interests / cause and effect down pat. All that and then he walks away like a Billionaire Fratboy with a pedicure appointment.

Thanks for gettting that Christy. That was a very good speech. He’s a smart guy and he knows a lot of things.

Great stuff Christy, EW and RJK,Jr. It was nice to see Robert. I’ve heard him on ring of fire but rarely see him. Maybe the folks at TPM can get him up to speed on webcast. He’s an important voice in the progressive movement.
