A burrowing owlet plays up for Rob Palmers’ camera in Pueblo, Colorado [Rob Palmer/ Solent]
What a laughable mess we are in… wars all over the place (“the place” being Earth)…. I am supposed to be all whupset over Beck and Palin and dear neice Alveeda King just disporting themselves all over the Lincoln Monument, on today! of all days!… and I could not care less.
We have killed M L King off so many times, narrowed and tied him down to this one instance in his life, The March on Washington, the “I have a dream” speech, strangled him in his clerical collar… that if stupid over-paid white people (Beck makes 32 mil a year) want to do this… have at it.
New Orleans is “back”, but for persistent blight, which is basically what they are saying… If you don’t like the sorts of R that Bobby Jindahl and Haley are and what they say… why Mitch and Mary [Landrieu] are happy to inform you! I see Ray Nagin is pleased to present himself for interviews… Even “Heckuva job” Brownie popped up…
Yes SELA, and the coastal regions of MS and AL are so back. Right.
And, you know, we all have our bibles in hand, authored by BP.
Hosanna.
Obby goes to NO tomorrow and speaks to us, I guess, on Tuesday from the Oval.
Spare us please. He is barely even animated these days.

Love this pic of the trash bin cat in England… the cat is saying:
That woman is going to be very sorry. Very very sorry. Sorry as can be. She is going to be more than sorry…. and I have so many lives left to wreak my vengance… I am going to live a long long time.

hmm Cockburn has a round up piece riding at the top… and neatly dispenses with Beck Palin et al in the first part… in the second part is the recent oil auction in Iraq.
All the dying, the fear, panic, deprivation of war, the blood letting, all the hate…
Cockburn pushes that we must advertise what a failure the war was, we are left in devastation as is Iraq…
I say no one is interested hearing that or telling it, tho it is the truth… but what is also truth is:
We have taken on war for contract, we wage the wars, a slice of our economy, from our corrupt congress to the partying players, the vile and growing Mil Ind Complex, benefits and takes over more and more of government…. and conducts war for Federal pay for its international allies.
The whole damned world is in on it, but the victims…
mercenary nation …
In a word… yes that’s us..
So it was a war for war.
yes… no other description fits it… I think Afghanistan was as well…
I had not run into the back story to the Assange rape accusations… but this is presented over at Cpunch as well…
“Everything is on the Table” at the Catfood Commission

Because ’310 million’ takes in everybody, in Simpson’s world anyone who ever did, is, or will ever rely on Social Security is just a Randite ‘parasite’ or at best ‘dependent farm animal’
Yup… and they boil with hatred for us… that we dare demand or expect anything … that we dare demand to be cut in on the deal.
Which is really what it is all about.
NOR is it any much worse than Obey who screamed at the mother of a serving soldier, who feared her son would be sent back to Iraq for a second tour (this is years ago) and already with some form of trauma, PTSD or whatever.
He made it clear, “liberals” upset his apple cart… or something. I rather doubt she is “liberal” (or she may be!), but she was in his way….
Like Warner, who fled SF for Los Angeles when he had come here to hit up, for cash, what pass for city liberals… and omigosh, the middle aged dames dared to mention a b o r t i o n to him. At dinner no less. To make himself feel better he exoriated us in a op/ed piece in the LATimes.
Oh, there’s a boo boo baby. But Mama does’t want to kiss it this time. (withhold the vote!)
Obey and Warner both branded their confronters as LIBERALS.
Just another word for “don’t bother me” and “fuck off”…
oh and i imagine, like Democrats at Fucknutwitless Orange, Simpson is perfectly capable of slaming out

He certainly seems mean enough.
the most amazing thing about those people is how convinced they are that they obtained their stations in life solely based on their own inherent worth and “hard work”. Everyone else is lazy, though.
well nobody said they are not delusional. The problem is … they are very much in charge.
The internet gets its revenge on cat dumping Mary
oh………… I do so value an America whre Al Shrton is one of the most out front in your face operatives of the Dem party… the one courted (and paid) to “answer” Beck and Palin.
Geesh. Lectures from the paid-off. NOBODY is clear on anything.
The sorry line-up of articles on “dueling marches”.
I demand better betters.
that made me laugh…
Wel… cut off their noses and it gets full court press, glossy color photos and the cover of the magazine…
Angry Arab links to the JPost article…which reports he was declared a “sinner”.
And frankly, the singer seems masochistic, at the least. Probably a good dscription of religious adherents… esp those with willing scars.
fucking wackjobs
Conservative Economist: ‘Find the Unemployed and Hire Them’
The problem, he said, was that Obama’s stimulus was not direct enough.
I can agree with that!
The Feds gave the stumble money, chunks of it, to the states… and a LOT of it in our state went to the big firms… Well known names in Silicon Valley, for one.
Oh that was so helpful. Faces like Carly and Meg with open troughs waiting for it………..
I thought it was interesting, considering the source.
😆 ………
…….
oh scared little Democrats…
PC World
The Taste of Hope and Change: Progressive Sensitivity in U.S. Concentration Camp
hard to know what to say any more…. but I have seen some scattered and similarly bitter refrences to the Nobel…. forget now who it was, but just yesterday…… maybe IOZ, said he should win it again. Whatever he did to win the first one, he must still be doing it.
We are inside a really nasty horrible joke.
This makes sense… Iraq is under “plot fear alert”.
gah… for little democrats…
I cannot decide which panel is worse.
(oh i snitched it from Al Schumann over at SMBIVA … 🙄 …)

These are the kind of articles that ruin my Sunday. (Though when you post the talk show lineup for today it will finally be complete)
Props to the last sentence, which contains the improper use of the word “irony”.
“It’s an extraordinary irony,” said Mr. Riedel, the former Obama adviser. “He, like Bush before him, has put all his bets down on the table on one guy — and it’s the same guy.”
No, an irony is something that turns out the opposite of what you expected.
I meant to add that the last link has possibly NSFW gratuitous boob shots.
Riedel is a good choice to quote in a NYT article… CIA guy who thinks Afhganistan can won… and, in fact! has been won before! He maintains the Brits did not lose their shirt and their pants in Af… but!, that, because they ”established Kandahar”, they won.
He stood 4 times on a stage with Obby when Ob delivered a speech or remarks about Af-Pak.
We are so fucking screwerewdddd.
I see the pic they used is the night he met the plane at Dover AFB, returning iwth remains from the Wars…
What I found most interesting, of 18 remains being brought back, only one family agreed for him to be there. At one point the WH managed to get two families to agree, but then one dropped out.
Batting ………… less than a 100, shall we say.

Apart from the boiler plate official version: You’re on your own folks – don’t expect help like those bankers, I thank them for making me google the term, “muddling through”, which is a great palate cleanser.
hehe
Burning bush ignites Woodburn church
I suppose Brad Pitt could be more inarticulate, but hard to see how… (MTP with Brian Williams)
Before that Mitch and Mary declared that God is with them, with NO and they follow Jesus Christ, thus Beck can tell them nothing.
Wow, what deafening bullshit. From on high.
