Ah, just when you thought the week would never end, it’s halfway over with. Well, that’s better than nothing, I guess. I hope there’s nobody out there suffering from this Midwest ice storm. Pretty nasty looking shit. We got a lot of rain last night, which was supposed to turn to snow. I haven’t looked outside yet to see what we got, but I reckon I ought to take a peak, and see if any shoveling’s in order.
Hey Travis, congratulations on getting your quarter over with. Enjoy whatever break you have coming up.
Enjoy your last day at the car rental place, Andy, sad as it may be. Sometimes you have to move on before you can move forward, and I’m sure that’ll be the case for you. Good luck with everything.
Oh, my. Those wild and crazy Congressional pages. 😯
Bad, nasty, dirty nasty naughty pages. :spank: They should fly them all back to their homes (via the Minneapolis airport, of course).
Christy Harvey on the Young Turds! :hot: And sporting a pearl necklace. I’ll resist further comment. But she needs to stop leaning into the camera lens. EXTREME CLOSE-UP!!
:rofl2:
And what about the new and improved TV Sammy on with KO last night? Shaved, showered and minus the glasses and bow-tie. Almost didn’t recognize him at first. Practice run for a future MSNBC gig perhaps? Sam and Rachel would certainly be an imporvement over Tucker and Tweety.
Kevin, she wore a pearl necklace?

:omg: And yet even more snow :sheep: le
No wonder those congressmen have such a hard time keeping their members in line. :hubba: :jerk:
What is, myocardial infarction, Alex?
:penguin:
I am still trying to get use to Syracuse having a paper let alone a .com site :rofl2: 😉 A!I!V!
Really? We’ve been around for quite a while. The sad thing is that we’re down to one daily paper here, though we have several good alternative papers.
If you read back through the archives of our papers (including a couple of German language ones) on microfilm (as I have), you get to read about all sorts of interesting things, like the anti-slavery conventions (too hot for NYC to handle, so they had them here), the women’s rights movement, the spiritualist movement, and a lot more.
And, of course, we’re the center of the world’s oldest active democracy (the one that formed much of the basis for the US Government, in fact – the good parts, anyway).
:rofl2: 😉 :nod: It is a joke within a joke within a joke. :rofl2: What appears to be obscure is in Truth “The Hub” which evens reminds me of the Spiritual Ley Line. :rofl2: :nixon: :bow: :rofl2:
I feel like another exercise in fusillity or just one more big F* YOU :fu: to AAR and Mark Green for Kent Jones. E-mail addy, anyone, for Mr. Green? OI!
🙁 :menorah:
Now that Sam Seder is running the webpage, maybe you can just e-mail him, and ask him to pass it along to Marky-Mark.
I don’t think his attention to detail runs that deep. I thought that the AAR webpage thing was a funny move since he is not that great at keeping his own webpage/VODCast together anyway.
I am sure I can dig up the AAR e-mail template up somewhere in the past.
I dunno, he has his YouTube with Olbermann right there on top, so I guess he’s on the ball for the time being, anyway.
Anybody heard how Lionel is doing in Sam’s morning time slot? I’d be interested to know if all those radio “experts” were right about giving Sam the boot for that clown.

Tankard of Tea Time
Actually, pj, that was probably because one of his bloggers had already set it up. He can’t get it together to do audio files of his VODCast unless someone on the blog does it for him.
I know of at least one part time blogmaster who does a much better job taking care of things and probably does not get much in return for it save the gratitude and love of his minions.
Kucinich booted from Iowa debate
Source: The Hill
December 12, 2007
Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D) is being excluded from this week’s Iowa presidential debate because he has not rented office space in the Hawkeye State, his campaign said Wednesday.
The Des Moines Register informed the campaign that Kucinich is not invited because the newspaper determined “that a person working out of his home did not meet our criteria for a campaign office and full-time paid staff in Iowa,†the campaign said.
…..
The campaign blasted the decision to exclude the lawmaker from the debate.
“The Iowa caucuses have been portrayed as having national implications, and if the Register has decided to use hair-splitting technicalities to exclude the leading voice of the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party, then the entire process is suspect,†the campaign said in a statement about the “arbitrary and unreasonable exclusion.â€

==============================
I have to wonder how much the DLC had to do with this.. :gate: :omg: :jason: :jason: :fist:
Just caught Kent’s announcement from last night. These people suck.
Heh. I was just looking at the comments on the AAR page. There’s somebody there calling him/herself “weasler” that sounds a lot like good old what’s his name, the Morning Sedition blog troll.
You don’t suppose his radio name is Joe from Tempe, do you?
Thanks for that reminder, pj. I forgot that I can score a non-AARgh premium dl of Maddow on Green 960. I am listening now. At least in some cases they let their folks say goodbye.
:pup: < ---MONKEY! Here is a movie I am really looking forward to seeing.
Best reason I’ve seen yet not to quit drinking.
Thanks PJ, Now I can really appreciate what all those long term factory workers have had to go through when their plants shut down.
As far as I’m concerned, Bush himself is a reason not to quit drinking.
:40: :40: :40:
But you know, if you need a reason to quit drinking, you probably shouldn’t.

Tony Perkins Uses Colorado Tragedy for Political Gain
Good article with excellent reference material.
The man crowned by Tommy Franks as “the dumbest [expletive] guy on the planet†just made the dumbest [expletive] speech on the planet.
Doug Feith, the former Rummy gofer who drove the neocon plan to get us into Iraq, and then dawdled without a plan as Iraq crashed into chaos, was the headliner at a reunion meeting of the wooly-headed hawks Monday night at the American Enterprise Institute.

I not necessarily a fan of Maureen Dowd, but I thought this was a pretty good column.
Well (as Saint Ronnie :bow: Reagan always said :bow: ), I completed the certification exam for CLNC (Certified Legal Nurse Consultant) earlier this evening and PASSED :yippee: .
I will be getting all my official certification :crap: in the next 3-4 weeks and can work on my plan to solicit lawyers for cases to review in the meanwhile.
My motivation in obtaining this cerification was to get into an area where there might be some possibility of promoting justice :fist: for the people getting screwed by their HMOs, insurance companies & compensation carriers :growl: and to advocate for a Single Payer/Universal health care system in this pathetic greedy corporate owned country.
I.E. to be an instrument of CHANGE!!
If they send me to Gitmo, I hope they will at least enable me to practice my nursing profession instead of tossing me into a cell for being a terrorist because Michael Moore is my hero for saying what so many of us couldn’t!!!! :slap: :slap: :slap: :slap:
As much as lawyers are a mixed bag of individuals (and I have dealt with plenty of them professionally over the course of my case management career), I don’t believe they are all bad (just like I don’t believe doctors are all bad) — just that TOO many of them are really pretty ignorant (both MD & JD), that’s why we lowly RN/LPNs exist — TO EDUCATE THE FOOLS :growl: :growl: :growl: :smack: :smack:
But that’s not a good attitude for marketing, so I guess I’ll be starting out with talking to some of PJs Law School profs to see what kind of recommendations they would make as far as attorneys working on legislative change issues in health care. It really isn’t about the $$$ (which will be totally worthless soon the way things are going) but it IS about CHANGING the God (or whoever) AWFUL mess that this horrible greed-laden insurance-company-profit-driven :growl: :growl: :growl: :growl: :crap:y “health” care system of the wonderful U.S.A. has devolved into.

and I think I saw Sue P (blame Vernon :no: :rofl2: ) :fist: A!I!V! :fist:
Could be, could be. Same intelligence factor workin’ there.
Congrats, RG I know you’ll put that certification to good use, but I think we should put your name forth for surgeon general. Yes, I know you’re not a doctor but I’d have a heck of lot more faith in you than the MD’s Preznit Bush has appointed.
