“Rosy rest”
hmm Not something the Dems are enjoying this am. Should make their usual Dash to Europe after a race a bit bitter this time, eh?
Quite a few delicious losses.
But how in the hell did we get stuck with Harry.
Somebody screwed up.
Chopping block. Meat cleaver. Basket. Head.

LOL…
I do think Mr Durbin has identified the problem! God knows it was as clear as a huge zit on someone’s nose.

LOL
I am sorry I just cannot stop laughing.
Which was a part time job. As a state level mini-fixer.
Lordy.
This should go smoothly. Right?
From senior political aide, Political Director, and whatever else………. to
CLEANER.
😆
Counseling…lecturing…same thing.
Gene Taylor went down. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin.
Charlie Wilson (another Rham Bill C special)…
I think Ohio turned entirely red but for one tiny dot. And I think LA turned fully red. No blue. (can you blame them? They just get batted from killer to killer).
good riddance to those two
I said after Kerry lost, that Dukakis had a good night’s sleep… wow… now he will really feel a weight is off.

Just readin g that count is up to
19 NINETEEN.
In case anyone missed what ObSnotDrivelDrool was doing when he rescinded COLA for SS for two years running. This and next. And did it back in spring of 2009.

LOL How’s that vote working out?
I see Barbara B out here… is up 9.9 pts… and over a half million votes…
Hey, hey, from the newly red state of NH. 😉 It seems Lynch is the only survivor. Too much fun. Bass won back the 2nd and the Blue Hampshirites are, well, blue. 😦 LOL.
For the speculators in the popcorn market: IMO, too much Red money came in from outta state and was used for down ticket races. It looks to me, FWIW, like Johnny Sr. has his “paid for” troops in place and is going to make a run for “kingmaker of 2012”. This could be fun.
hey aemd how are you…?
You and quite a bit else went red last night…
So, I wake up to same old, same old. Perry in his 10,000/month rent house, Dewhurst still Lt. Gov., Abbott still AG, no one else I voted for won their spot and the people of Austin voted FOR the stupid boondoggle of a transportation bond package….
yeeha, we will have a 14 million dollar boardwalk on the lake — I’m sure that will bring me great comfort the next time I’m sitting in traffic…*sigh*
Another day, same old shit.
We have our govenor from the 70s back…
😉
and the cops can still beat up hippies for smoking pot … the circle of life!
well at least not too much in SF… word around was that the scent of MJ was pretty strong at the Giants ticker tape parade and whatever else today………………….
And boy people here in town way way way more interested in talking about that than the bloodbath. I don’t blame them…
I just looked, Jerry won by 12 pts… Barbara by just a bit under 10. fwiw (not much)
I have a vivid memory of my Mom grumbling sometime in the Seventies about how bad it sucked paying more than fifty cents for a can of tuna.
Maybe the local grocers should have a “Back To The Seventies” pricing day in honor of Brown…
😉
Obloss speaks.
He’s for civility.
54 minutes later… this was only painful. Numbingly dull.
Geesh.
I heard only the last minute or two on NPR as I was driving back from picking up kid the elder’s school work (he, despite having had a flu shot 5 weeks ago, has the flu) — thank the goddes I missed the rest of it!
Yesterday’s “health care” for boys cost a mere $150 — with insurance! yippie!
He had pretty much crashed to shore and was out of what very little steam he had, by the end.
Mostly babbling about the optimism he gains from the AmPeep and going on about no one filming him reading letters that break his heart at night…
fuck him.
yup
54 minutes? Argh.
And it went closer to 57. They were interminable.
Just catching it now on Teh YouTube. Nap-inducing drivel. He wore a red tie?
Notice how he bristles at Savannah Guthrie’s perfectly appropriate follow up question.
Geesh.
Shorter Obama: Talk to the hand!
Shorter Electorate to Obama:
“Talk to the Butt”
“As I strap on the boots again tomorrow…” (to shovel even more shit your way…)
It was painful, by the time it was over I had a head ache radiating up from my neck bones.
Awful.
LOL! Thanks, catnip! Have you found any land for sale for me up Canada way? heh, not that I could BUY a loan these days…but a girl has to have her dreams, right? You need any roomies? 😉
*hugs*
hey Brinn, sorry to hear you’re still stuck w/ the Empty Hairpiece.
Lots ‘O Lots up here! Run for the border.
Yeh. well.
He better get used to the strap-on and boots.
Come up with a safe-word or two.
One minute for every seat they lost.
well,..sure glad that ‘pricey’ bit of chicanery is mostly through with …(I wonder how many folks, critters, and natural environments could have been relieved of misery with the obscene amounts poured into it).
I guess the remaining DC denizens have new frenemies to fritter and plan with….
(you and ms. xeno sure did nail those ‘terms’ down hon.)
In other nooz, the get ready for the new, and ‘progressed’ century, http://valleywag.gawker.com/5674808/google-is-now-providing-servants-to-its-employees>kinder form of slavery, test run of the non mathematician/non ivy leaguer ‘servants,’ to the ivy leaguer mathematicians, showed a tad bit too much resistance to fully implement at this moment…
me, I’m getting ready to sign up for a lobotomy, and waiting for the simple pleasure of ‘falling’ back an hour so I can at least enjoy some more vitamin D ………….
shit,…knew I should have checked that ‘code,’ ….corrected :

Climate change: How do we know?
Obviously, Jehovah just squatted down and let loose a huge fart …
Glad “Grayson’s Got Guts” is gone.
See, there *is* a point to these elections.
Guy was such a fraud, such a fraud.
Sitting there in Free Vote land…
(HA! While the New Permanent Majoriites lasted!! Remember that gush?!?)
Sitting there in Free Vote land with the big talk Left always a vote for Parliamentary jive designed to fail and always voting for Defense Appropriations in the end. He was a shit.
And dodged this summers vote on a resolution “Directing the President to Remove Armed Forces from Pakistan”.
Utter Shit. Yeh a Real Liberal.
This was a gem-

And, of course Right there for Bebe and funding to Israel after feigning shock and outrage.
Fuck ’em.
I say they are all bought off. Not a missing link in the fence.
Snicker snax!!
Not that I have a corgi in the ring…

John Caruso has been on a roll lately. That and bourbon have pretty much saved whatever remains of my brain cells this week.
Work is so damn exhausting, but the weather was gorgeous today at least. The rear loading dock was opened in the afternoon, so we actually got some rays.
‘Til tomorrow, All.
I saw you appear in the Hillary will save us!! thread at corrente.
😉
Funny how people don’t get it…
[shrug]
I’m not The Right Kind Of Poster™ for Corrente.
I hope lambert doesn’t expect me to cry in my beer over that. Really, at this point any day where I’m not calling the FIL in PA to ask if we can couch-surf at his place is pretty much a super-fantastic day. (I’ll save my tears for when the next ream-o-gram from our piece of shit insurance company arrives.)
Good luck to them all, as somebody I know says. :p
I don’t know how long Flugonnock (sp?) has posted there, but I bet his comments blew they away.
I got a kick out of it, personally…
😆
I loved his Clinton flashback cartoon!
❤ ❤ ❤
oh I did too!
Ah,yes, I love the smell of burnt
Pwog ass in the morning. Allow me to immortalize,
to re-hatchet the burial so to speak, of
Crissy Bowers from a few days ago.
❗ 😯 😳
And now what is this, this this – as IOZ puts it~
I think –
bottom man rentboy cum gurgling pisspig ™
I think* – ah, plying?
Good Lord! We’re talkin’ a
Muscular New Plurality in a Mighty Mouse Minorty!
MMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmMMMMMMMmmmmmmMMMMMMMmmmmmmmMM!!!
There’s more!
***To clarify, Please note that as Career Progressives go, this in no way is meant to elevate Bowers to the professional shill level of, say, a Joe Klein whom IOZ lauded as a…

Bower’s parents, you see, had to be optimists.
LOL Is he blaming The Left yet?
Of course I saved it two computers back, but he did comment at orangina that The Left is responsible for ALL election losses.
😆 … 👿
May I have an edit?
That last line should read
Bower’s parents, you see, had to be optimists.
For illustrative purposes and precision’s sake and all.. LOL.
Progressives will hold on to their new plurality among House Democrats.
Oh he is just so cute!!
Does he notice the counting is not over??… and the count for now is “at least 60 seats”.
Not to even mention the governors and state lege..
I certainly have seen the map before, the one we see today… almost all red. I have heard the “stories”…. and some do matter, rural vs city, density of population and so on. But it does not count A LOT….
Poor Ob and his Oblettes… they thought they had a COALITION coming out of 2008.
Oh…FFS… what they had, they were the beneficiaries of a reactionary vote.
Which has happened again. And will again.
I look a t the map, and I think wObbly will have a very hard time in 2012.
they were the beneficiaries of a reactionary vote.
Which has happened again. And will again. mcat
Spot on. The structural damage from this – if you can call props structural!! – more accurate to say the structural reinforcement of Fascists, our oligarchs, our kleptocrats, pick a term… no question to me: cannot be underestimated in yesterdays go-round. On a tangential point, I disagree with OP at SMBIVA and his dismissal of Hedges use of “neo-Feudalism” – serviceable enough regardless of Hedges – my take on his OP’s piece anyways.
Nonetheless, the structural reinforcement of Fascism , the ratchet effect, the particular yank and torque of this last one is a doozy, and will prove to be so….is not to be underestimated with this turn.
It is horrible, has been, and continues to be so.
Much MUCH more pain, with more force and coming at much higher velocity is in on the way.
Nothing has been resolved. Not our Warring “We’ll pay ya’ll Later”. Not our bogus “markets” which steal from everybody, our European and Asian friends and allies alike. The US and its retainers simply steal its comforts from those they see sees as the Coalition of the Unwilling. It’s only propped up to the extent that our “partners”, too, can keep a lid on it or are willing to bear it. Why should that last?
For how long?
How long before US franchises: the unyielding US bankers and oilmen and arms merchants perhaps even a critical one or two, precipitate a kind of backlash that cannot be contained? And by that I don’t mean the kind of “You Go, Then I’ll Go” engineered kind of contained regional conflicts that even clowns can live with.
I cannot read “op” anymore… the verse is too dense for me. Think my brain has frittered. … 😆

Yes… that is a big fat hanging chad.
A friend of mine yesterday described it as “the cycle of lameness” — best description of the fucking puppet show we call democracy here in USAistan that I’ve heard in a while!
Oh I like this one…GOP already blaming Tea Party for not taking Senate.

I said it before, and I’ll say it again. You won in spite of yourselves.
So much theatre…
Rove snarked and bitched at O’Donnell as he had a interest in Castle… but he took an interest in Angle.
So Good Luck to them all.
You now how like when you were a kid and you would play marbles and baseball and Pledge Allegiance and light your neighbor’s house on fire?
::
:
And it wasn’t good because like, you were in the house and part of it?
But remember how everything worked out?
You know, pretty much as planned?
🙄 – > As if the sorts like Uyger and Hamster don’t know the score , and I’m not talking blogee a blogee provocation.
Uyger is a lawyer and was a Hill Staffer.
Pretty funny tho, the recriminations and Party vanguard bit, wherein they all flip the fuck out.
Speaking of reactionary elections… NYT has maps showing the shifts this year and ’08 and ’06 and some other graphics…
loads fast…
