		<description>&lt;p&gt;and then, let us consider ambassadorial appointments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a large number of these are for sale. when they involve non-foreign service individuals, they are always for sale.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the price for these appointments is discussed. over telephones. are those discussions somehow different from blagojevich’s discussions?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i can think of many individuals who contributed extravagantly to a political party and became appointed as ambassadors[and were approved by the senate?].&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;how about this one? keith brown. an oil man. major contributor to the reptillian party. his first post was lesotho. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;he didn’t like that post, very much. so he kept giving. eventually, he won a prize ambassadorial posting. one of those civilized scandinavian countries. denmark? where he may have been engaged in promulgating those incendiary cartoons of the prophet mohammed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;oh,i might have gotten the keith brown story inaccurately. but i don’t think so. keith was a major reptillian. and many ambassadorships are for sale.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;let us never fail to recall one of george walker bush’es first ambassadorial appointments. william farish. to the court of st james.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;for another time, perhaps you can discern that farish-bush relationship?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Matt Renner’s special report for Truthout details what happened in 2006 when Rahm Emanuel, as head of the DCCC, didn’t like anti-war candidate Christine Cegelis running in IL-06 so he recruited Duckworth (who didn’t live in the district) to run against her.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Geez, is Harry Reid a hand puppet of Rahm Emanuel’s?  BTW, nice to know the blogs are getting a taste for what Rahm Emanuel really is.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;My observations from a while back in Salt Lake City - They seem to really like Tongans (Hunter S. Thompson aside) and have converted a lot of them. It’s really the threads of the Confederate legacy that seem to be behind some of the Mormon skin color coding. Someone needs to fully research this all.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;at one point it seemed to settle on Coleman being up 249 maybe … that’s the number that sticks in my head … and then the counting started.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i declare Al Franken to be the new junior Senator from MN!!!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Step right over here, Senator Franken and take your oath to uphold the Constitution and help us get this country back on track!!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I think way, way back in the beginning, Coleman was up by about 400, but even my long term memory is fading…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
