One report said 10 died across the border marches and protests…. and I noticed that The Christian Science Monitor cannot spell … Their headline said, “Nabka”. WASPs they are, and WASPs they shall remain… LOL
Ob will or, more accurately, may speak at the up-coming AIPAC event:
Obama expected at pro-Israel gathering
[N]either the White House nor AIPAC would confirm his appearance, but two source familiar with the plan said he’s expected to address the group the day before Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears, and amid a week of intense focus on the “Arab Spring” sweeping the Middle East and deeply unsettling many Israelis and their American allies. . . . . .
We are blessed.

IOZ in inimitable fashion:
oh, jeesh ….I was so pissed at that fairly young asshole implying (to my read), hours after I professed so much love, that those not reading twitter, or still using land lines were obsolesced dithering fools (and I still don’t agree (asshole)) …and now I’m loving him all over
again ….sigh. ;0)
‘n’ it’s your fuckin fault Marisa! :0)

weeellll then, ….. it’s Madman’s fuckin fault!
;0)
..figure’s it was a male, always stirrin shit………
unlike us wimminz …. (ermmmmmm ;0) )
everything is!
ohh gee, I’m sorry, just joshin, …bad day? ;0(
oh, no … I was jus’ kiddin’ back.
good, becuase I was startin to feel like a real asshole (not that I’m not capable of being one….sigh …..)
;0)
I came here from IOZ. Works both ways.
😉
I noticed he has a good one up today on… raping vs bombs awayyyy!!!!!!!!!!
sounds about right to me.
So, Obviously, I’m Reading The New Issue Of O Magazine.
…they pull out the honest-to-God rubber model food plate to show her that FIVE BROCCOLI FLORETS is a single serving of vegetables.
They must have borrowed that plate from the Bay Fat Hunter.
I loved this one from that same, Lazy Self-Indulgent Book Reviews, site:
Thank goodness I only have one cat, and have learned better than pull a distracted stunt like that with her.
siiiiiigh, I see I fucked that post all up. Just pretend the first sentence is block quoted, and the last sentence isn’t….thanks……sigh.
Speaking of O magazine.. I jsut read that OWN, Oprah Winfrey Network, is very visibly struggling. Poor ratings for a long time as OW creams thru, and fires, all sorts of people at the network.
Hey! Good Luck! Maybe Obama and BFH can help out? No?
I think O’s time is past …
Many years ago, she actually did manage interesting shows. As I have watched all of less than 20 over her two decades plus national career, I can’t really say… but she had a show after Columbine that was MUCH broader than anything she would do now.
But this whole game of, as I call it, “keeping women nodding in assent” really is a game. And daily is much much more than mere entertainment.
I just find her dreary.
I saw that recently, and won’t say it didn’t cheer me up. So sick of our Appointed Media Parents, let alone people who should know better, trying to defend them as such.
America Pleased With Killing of Thing
This, from the comments:
you know how it goes… as long as we “got” something!!
I still remember this “op-ed” as one of the most honest ever published.
http://www.theonion.com/articles/we-must-retaliate-with-blind-rage-vs-we-must-retal,11537/
Yes as I am just hearing the charges against Qaddafi, one of which is killing civilians. And something about going after anti government types. (So rare for states to do that!!) And so on.
Wedding parties across many nations rejoice, til they hear it is not a charge against the US.
…………………. as we move into the 4th month. (“Days, maybe weeks…” )
Is there anything remaining of the Fourth Amendment? Bravo to Justice Ginsberg for using some common sense in her minority opinion.

thanks for that…
No, I think the 4th Amendment is gone.
One thing that blew my mind, was when the SC ruled it is OK for cops, and similar (we have so many! local state feds etc.) ) to enter ON TO your property, if your car is parked outside of the garage, and place surrepticious GPS on the car. NOT however OK if you have a gate, fence, any sort of divider that is closed.
Wasn’t that just the 9th District Court (yeah ugggh Cali’s included), or has that now been extended all across the country?
Stunning classism, I remember even a conservative judge was enraged by the classism.
they ground the 4th up to feed to police dogs … it keeps their titanium teeth shiny.
In the same vein, Madman sent me this, which is pathetic and hilarious.
Pooor Brother Cornel. Well as i said, may they, the vaunted Obama voters, get caught in a long unending game of three card monte.

the link’s not working hon.
fixed…
BTW is it raining where you are? We had hail last night and now rain thru Wednesday.
gah… it makes thing SPROUT. I am going thru Kleenex boxes at a mad rate.
It’s a lot colder, pale pale grey sky, and just a bit drizzly.
Spoke with someone from Pittsburgh yesterday, they’ve been getting a lot of rain, I can’t imagine that bodes well for the Mississippi mess, with the Ohio River flowing into it.
the Mississippi mess
No surprise, there are now reports that the opening of the gates at Morganza, may not really work after all.
pretty sad bunch, either blind or lying.
Geithner Is Obama Admin’s Indispensable Man – Albert Hunt, Bloomberg
😆 – > Al Hunt, 10 cents a dance.
Fucking shill.

Gallup: Obama Poll Bounce Disappears
POOF!
Some host was burbling long on KGO a couple of days ago, about how Obby ws polling at 60% approval. So I looked at RCP… it was a big fat outlier.
The rest showed him where he had been.
The dead cat count bounce.
Ted Rall: Rise of the Obamabots
oh thank you for that… terrific column. Someone has to say it. I sent it around…
😉
And right on cue, one of the dkos Obots – Whimsical – showed up in the comments.
oh I see.. yes lovely… sounds like Meteor Slides frankly.
Same old shit.
– if you don’t support Obama, the Palin terroristas win.
– republish Obama propaganda or we’ll blacklist you.
– RedState is that way >>>
All so predictable.
Oh too funny!
Maria left Arnold because 10 years ago he fathered a child with a long time member of the household staff.
Achtung! Pay attention!!
Why… is…… she…… surprised?
Apparenlty Arnold has just now issued a statement, saying also that he has always taken financial responsibility for the bambino/a.
Etc. Etc.
And so on.
Oh! AND it is being reported that he has decided n a project for his next movie… which is entitled…
CRY MACHO
What a scream!!
Title change: CRY MACHO SCUM
Be interesting to watch the box office returns on that one.
ugh. Whne I used to do massive cleans, myself if I did not hve unemployed friends to dragoon…. when I ws done I would make sure I had a couple (or more!) Arnold movies, just flop on the bed and eat cookies and bon bons for a day or two.
Recover.
I mean he was always awful, but his movies did blow stuff up… but ugh I cannot look at their faces even. For years now.
Too much testosterone for me.
well they had t be looked at as comedies. Where stuf blew up.
But the running joke was completely over when he got so cosy with the R party (despite all tht shite about how liberal and green and socialist he is / was, etc) and then when he ran for Governator.
My “fondest,” ya may as well bleakly laugh ….or commit suicide ….recollect of the recall coup, was the weeping Issa (wasn’t he a side by side Afghani Warrior, ..alongside that DEMON, Osama?…or some such?), having been recently, and most unwillingly, sodomized by the Groper, … whom the Groper, …in a true I FUCK YOU moment, labeled The Father of the Recall Effort …..(in a snickering, true, Nazi Groper …..“Spirit”)
A pox on em both (and Grey Davis, the Huff Puffer,….etc.), and sorry bout that run on sentence …..hard to fuckin finalize that flow…….:0) …..
oh The Recall… it had so many ”moments”
What that man has done to the Kennedy reputation,
Why I NEver..! 😆
Here is a treat! A few days ago, after the joint nnounce, I guess at his Facebook page or similar, one son of theirs posted that as “we drive Hummers”, they “are going to keep on moving”.. something like that.
It may not matter at all, but it is a more complicated story now.
OMIGD… that ruling from the SCOTUS yesterday, on the right of cops to enter if they somehow know you are in there, bt may be flushing evidence…
was EIGHT TO ONE.
Eight to 1 Only Ginsberg held out. (Not that I cared, at all, for Sotomoto or Kagan, my nickname for her is “Shreck-American”, LOL …. )
we are so fucked.
well………… it made me laugh.
