I never would have assumed Putin had a poodle (he’s on the record ridiculing Barney, the Bush era WH dog). Apparently he does. Tosya. (This means nothing, just for fun.)
****
Via The Page… sigh.
Obama to speak again on health care Thursday morning from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.
Carry on… we’ll get something out of this, then see what the hell it is.
😎
They stand til they fall. Gavin Newsom was in the Speaker’s box last night…
Because it IS!
Now think, had they started with EVERYONE at the table.. Medicare for All, Single Payer… the “move” might have been to a halfway well constructed so called “Public Option”.
Think we are gonna get tattered and old, shredded and limp lace curtains.
have to love “pragmatism” in the Age of Terror we live in. It all makes so much sense!
We do have Single Prayer…
touche!
oh FFS. We are behind URUGUAY, they ve legalised gay adoption.
Wall Street sees few surprises in Obama speech
Yup, just heard a local report…..health care stocks are up… anticipating no meaningful change.
I also heard (or read, forget which) yesterday that Baucus went to the media and NOT to the WH with his news making releases yesterday.
Undercut messiah.
hahahah…the Mayor of San Jose says Cali is ungovernable.
Guess that is official!
But not as many cheeses as France…
our loss.
haha…
He added, “Seriously, do I look like I could get laid??”
HA! Lynn Woolsey denies Ob is dropping “public option”… she heard him in her heart.
Sounds like Catholic nursery school lullabies. Mary understood Jesus “in her heart”.
Campaign launched to make Stephen Colbert premier of Alberta and rename province “Colberta”
I’ll vote for that.
Wouldn’t “Colberto” be more appropriate, genderwise?
He’ll have to sacrifice for the public good. 🙂
Interview with John Marcotte, Author of the 2010 California Protection of Marriage Act
Taht’s for real?
Not you taking [cough] liberties?
What a fucking extra nutter nut.
He writes movie, comic and cartoon reviews mostly … I’m pretty sure it’s a stunt/satire.
Here’s his website
lol
Gah!
How about transferring the Vatican to Berkeley maybe?
That would be a relief to Italians. And maybe Ratz might get the urge to jump off the Campanile.
“she goes back on the shelf”…
California, “land of the fruits and the nuts”. We have religious nuts in high numbers. And sadly, over marriage, they have all found each other.
Hollywood would implode. With film at 11.
hmm I caught most of the R moves last night.. BUT I am just hearing that a rep from Illinois walked out on the speech.
I’ve always thought the way Turing was treated was a great crime. In so many ways, he helped the allies win WW2, and he was hounded afterwards for his trouble, because he was gay.
Treatment of Alan Turing was “appalling” – PM
Never get that from Ob. Nor the utterly beautiful speech Zap______ (I forget hsi name) of Spain gave when they instituted SS Marriage. In utter defiance of the Catholic Church.
Tho there is a whiff of redemption in that Turing was so pivotal in, gah, fighting the Holocaust. Which of course no one did (of the big powers I mean)
oh, Zapatero’s oh-so-wonderful speech:
I doubt we’ll see it happen here in my lifetime, or ever. We take too much joy in each others’ suffering.
that’s it.. I’ve used it a couple of times but not saved the link. So wonderful.
No we will never never never get that. And surely not from Mr Nervous Nellie.
Show me the money, Mr. President, about Medicare
yeah on the mark.
Ob is undermining SS and Medicare (and thanks, GHW, Bill C and W… for all they did!). Medicaid is on such a long slow slide already…
He is such a fucking servant.
I see “dblhelix” in that thread. Interesting comments from her, if it is the same person. Think she is right on about the payment system that is coming.
Talk about rationing.
it’s plainly what all those rich bastards have in mind for the rest of us.
hmm some background on the Coakley entrance into the senate run in Mass. Moves she made at least as far back as Nov.
Andrew Card is making noises about running as the Republican.
Treatment of intersexed African athlete appalling
She says:
well the whole thing has been handled badly from a ways back. Seems to be some indication that SA was asked to do this (or some of it) at the local level and blew it off. Then she has a coach, a real hang over frm the old East German days… (along the way I read a real horror story from that era, some one so pumped full of various drugs she ended up going for a sex change to try ot resolve it all)
One suggestion I read was test everyone. I bet some surprising things would turn up.
the boing boing thread is interesting…
you never know with their threads. Sometimes they are appalling, then other days you find interesting discussions. I thought the post by Noctis was a good one:
yes that was… AND I too was surprised to find out that “hermaphrodite” was considered a pejorative…. I just htought it was the old word that works in a lot of languages.
Tom Tomorrow
Nite all!
hmm maybe another one down in the Beck vs Administration game.
DEA spokesman “reassigned”.
I dunno… maybe the Ob side needs to smarten up.
Blowback’s a bitch, Beck.
(And yes, I stole the story link from dkos. Sue me.)
The linked blogs on the Beck site are hilarious.
I get the impression Fox is gearing up.
Glad I am jsut an observer and don’t worry much any more who “wins”… such as it is.
News from the Department of It’s About Fucking Time: John Stossel Leaving ABC For Fox
Isn’t Giraldo on FAUX? Do they have room for 2 huge moustaches?
here’s his hat… etc.
Geesh.. Eugene Robinson is even calling the EYE ROLLING Wednesday night UN AMERICAN.
What fucking authoritarian loons protecting the baby chick who can’t make it on his own. That’s how it looks.
Toward the end he grandly says he has not mentioned race… but then of course he did.
Baby bottle on aisle 5.
gnu thred…
