Jakarta, Indonesia: Members of the Islamic group Hizb ut-Tahrir Indonesia hold placards during a protest in front of the US embassy on 4 September [Mast Irham/EPA]
Guardian headline and text for the gallery:
Muslims protest against US church plans to burn the Qur’an
Muslims around the world called for Barack Obama’s death at protests to denounce a US church’s plans to burn the Islamic holy book on the anniversary of 9/11.
hmm, the placards: Only Coward Burn Qu’ran; Only Caliphate Can Stop American Arrogance; Caliphate The True Shield of Qu’ran; You Burn Qu’ran You Burn In Hell
Howzit going?
Think a speech would help?
And that’s Indonesia… where he is supposed to have some [ephemeral as all hell] connection.
Whoops.
I am not all that impressed, up down or sideways, I remain convinced much of this is bought and paid for, there and here, all sides… however, this sort of thing just freaks people out… and some, at the least, thought Obby was a heavy wet wool blanket to throw over any acknowledgement of our actions. Something we will never do: genuinely admit wrong..
Now what?

It will be interesting to see if they go for outright repeal of “obamacare”. I would think they like the mandate as much as the Democrats do.
oh yeah …that was a joint hatching…
The question is would anyone notice since no one can see what this “historic” bill has done for them in the first place.
They’ll know in 2014!
Hope everyone there is safe from the fire
good luck to all the NoCali folk
More whoops. Off the circuit! Hunkered down at home!

More slobberation:
ugh, I threw up in my mouth a little reading that.
Another from E.J. “Powdered-Ass-with-Matching-Wig”
DIONNE
Nothin like a good cornerman in the ring if you can get past all the powder and the Pompadour. That is, until he starts fuckin bawlin…which doesn’t take long.
That Hope Springs Eternal and Sparkle Ponies for All are just around the corner?? No? No? Not that embedded narrative? What, say you, E.J. With Your Jammies On of the Unembedded?
What Unfair!WannanotherStory! ~narrative~ is that?
Well, I love You, E.J.
Same memo, while I digress here, as ex Hill staffer , minor operative, dailykos front pager, desperate ratfucker as of a few days ago ooops now blinking and backpedalling from the DUMB stunt before Stoller or Bowers or whoever among the other boychicks involved gets tripped up.. .. Anyways same “Labor Day as Turning Point” bullshit memo as Jed Lewison.
Anyways, Back to finish off E.J.
😆 Oh yeh,
you got a REAL fighter on your hands, ‘toonkins.
All I can say is…
get back in the ring. LOL.
Anyways, the thing with Lewison, so obvious he and the boychicks are behind this Stupid dirty trick / eyeballs to DK stunt of accusing a paid Rand Paul staffer of “infiltrating their site.
One, aside from nobody giving a fuck in Kentucky, it isn’t going to get them more in the Party offering plate than the peanuts and their little dicks that they’re struggling to find.
And it isn’t going to get them more than the now well under HALF of those “million hits a day” they repeatedly, and BULLSHITTEDLY claim. LOL.
To wit, from sitemeter,
Duration of site “visit”
and
Pages viewed per visit.
So their GoogleBombing and clickscam thing is pretty well exposed. They’re not called on it in terms of mutual media buzz generation but ut that other thing but they ain’t making money off this shit like they used to..
The thing they have Bowers doing, scouring all Dkosser’s for updated email addy’s , now that gmail has fucking ADS linked to the content, that’s their latest little number…
Anyways…
I mentioned below. I get nearly daily spam now from MAMZ for an account that I havent used since 2006 because I was a “purity troll” Wonder if Sheehan and Palast are getting similar spam? Someone should write something up about them scraping the bottom of their barrel and solicting from “BANNED” users.
And as I said below, if you believe their numbers they have about a .5% response to all their money bombs and whatnot.
Whatever Happened to Obama’s Army?
They’re all hanging at the Big L’Orange. And they’re annoying as fuck.
This is interesting:
Might as well change the name to “Organizing For Obama” and get it over with.
Oh, LOL. Thanks for that.
Might as well change the name to ..
Organizing for ___________…
Oh that could be fun.
MORE War? Goldman Sachs? Tax cuts for Bidness? Blackwater getting Reinstated? A GOP majority? EcoDisaster?
AND…ya can leave it blank, too.
they should jsut call it OFM.
“Organising for Money”.
Wait – ya mean Ploofay
(didn’t know I could speak French , eh?} 😉 Ain’t Jesus’eszz? – whatever – St. Peter?
😆
Several tell Time that OFA boss David Plouffe, who ran Obama’s 2008 campaign, is using the cash to rebuild an army for 2012 under the cover of boosting turnout in 2010
Maybe Obby should read about 1980. Party bosses have no problem turning on pretzels.
Maybe he’s gonna spend the money building an army of sharks with frickin laser beams on their heads.
I’m still waiting for an update on the insect army.
I found the Dems’ new slogan in that article:
From the aforementioned article. I’m sure this will be a big favorite on this site
hmm The news is saying that 3 FBI agents have just (well that is the word they used) entered the Dove Outreach church…
I like Dove but their body wash isn’t quite as moisturizing as their soap.
I’ve never used the soap… but once when careening thru the pages for Safeway ordering I ordered one of the body washes, I saw the words, “cream oil” and tossed it in the cart.
But it, whatever scent they add, reeks of “Old lady”. Freaks me out totally! So I used it up, but always followed with a second soaping with something else.
Gah.
Nothing worse than “Old lady” smell. 🙂
Oh and I hate it when store clerks call me “dear” like I’m 80 fucking years old.
ugh. I distinctly remember a trip to France, when suddenly I was “madame” and not “mademoiselle”.
I headed for a cafe for a drink. Alcoholic.
you can still hear what they’re saying?
😉
I promised taylormattd a shout out, so here it is:
Fuck you and the little troll patrol mobile you rode in on.
🙂
very funny. I forgot he existed. Is it a he? Probably. In the land of zipperless orange fucks.
LOL… catnip. I just popped in to give YOU a shout. Just caught you at the the DK. I stopped by there for my weekly giggle and caught your smack down. Why is MBNYC still posting there. Isnt he a banned troll? Really I consider that site humor now like fark.
Its funny seeing them scramble in election season. Because all they are down to is “DONT VOTE FOR REPUBLICANS. THEY ARE SCARY” Too bad they wore that down to the nub a few years ago.
Also getting nearly daily spam from MAMZ now. Not sure if the account was banned but I know I havent used it since 2006. God they are desperate.
Since MAMZ loves polls and number how about his this. Your pledge drives get about 1300 responses. You claim to have 250K users. So your response rate is like .5%!
Maybe they should have focused on electing the Better before the More.
And a special note to Matt. Hey Matt. why dont you use all your education and all that spare time you have lawyering to post diaries about the many gay issues going on instead of wasting your time blogmaiding. You really contribute zilch to the zietgiest.
The Nevada race sums up this cycle for me. Best time to get reid of Reid. Ineffectual, spineless, do-nothing who needs to be put out to pasture VS unqualified nutty lady. No reason for anyone to vote.
I read tat in NV they have a box to check, None of the Above.
They are figuring it may knock out 4 – 7 % of the vote.
LOL
Speaking of Orange Slurry…
A reader sends in these two screenshots of the Google ads appearing on DailyKos today, either a marketing glitch or a programming one.

hi dear…
Hi. Hope you’re well… Fighting off my dreadful ‘whatever it is’ that I get every September likely because of the ragweed…
I have Benadryl by the bedside… and I do think it is ragweed that is the culprit…
I hope you’re feeling better!
I get hay fever in the spring and fall. I was thinking of grabbing something for it but on top of pain pills I’d probably end up comatose. (Mind you, that would be a cheap mini-vacation.)
well I am used to plain old Benadryl… I know when I can take two and put water by the bed and just curl up for a few hours…
I have several kinds of eye drops, eye washes, nasal mist, Benadryl…
It helps some….
That’s the thing with allergies like that – so many symptoms to take care of. I tried so many meds for my sinuses and a pharmacist finally told me to just fill a glass with warm water and some salt and to breath in the mist a few times a day. That helps.
Get these men a sugar tit. A line up of sugar tits.
Is there ANYTHING left about this country? At all?
Politico “44”
Koran burning canceled.
Some 9/11 truther is standing behind nutbar pastor’s press conference with a sign about “controlled demolition”.
Popcorn!
And nutbar pastor is saying that if the NYC Islamic center was moved away from ground zero, they would be a “sign from God”. The Ima(n) (as he pronounced it) has agreed to move it according to him.
Terrorist negotiations successful.
No confirmation on moving the Islamic center yet.
Oh what the heck – just bring back the crusades and let’s get it over with!
Welcome to tonite’s epsiode of “Deal or No Deal?” (suitcases optional)
we negotiate with someone that Germany – and his congregation there – THREW OUT.
[quote]that is, although nine years past, still and will always be very raw in people’s memories,” he said.
…[/quote]
hogwash. seriously. I am so sick of hearing about 9/11. it was tragic. but not the worse thing that ever happened. and since we have had floods and fires and shit that has done far more damage.
when exactly are we allowed to get over it an move on? I did about 2003. it just reminds me of the 70s and 80s when there would always be some Pearl Harbor bullshit the firts week of december. The only people who cared were in their 70s. It wasnt until the late 90s that it wasnt played up on the news.
And 9 years later after $4 trillion, countless lost lives all we have to show for our over reaction is the erosion of the american way of life.
oh I HATE 9/11 wiht a passion.
IF I NEVER heard of it again, it would be fine.
when I left NYC in 2003, actually ON 9/11, I was shocked how maudlin people were about it the further I drove the moving van west. In the city it was a pretty low-key thing, and the city had mostly moved on, but the sentimental rubes out here in the great mediocre middle just hold onto their “outrage” over an attack on a city they all fear and hate.
It baffles me.
How soon to the Second Coming?
lol..Tweety…”the mosque is not moving but pastor Terry Jones is going to New York this Saturday to preside over it not moving, apparently.”
meanwhile….
Orthodox Jewish youths burn New Testaments
http://www.haaretz.com/news/orthodox-jewish-youths-burn-new-testaments-in-or-yehuda-1.246153
perfect!
Burnt popcorn!
I think I need 3-D glasses for this movie.
It’s more fun that watching a Bronco chase.
that = than
Investor in proposed NYC mosque site turns down Donald Trump’s offer to buy him out
Blasphemy!
When has Donald Trump ever done anything for publicity?
I think they want a good bit more than Trump was offering…
SO NYC RE deal. Just a bigger mess than usual.
Ed Schultz is having a coronary – blaming Rahm for Obamalama going on teevee and talking about the Koran burning. Obama the Marionette. Can’t move without Rahm pulling his strings.
What he doesn’t seem to get is that this shit is what Obama lives for – to get involved in stuff that he should keep his nose out of – the “moral” stuff. And Ed thinks Rahm can stop that?
That was my feeling listening to obster wax looney on koran burning.
he just wants to lecture from some fake, or assumed, religious remove.
Fuck him.
Meanwhile, US soldiers ‘killed Afghan civilians for sport and collected fingers as trophies’
Yes, yes… but we KNOW that is not as bad as burning, threatening to burn, a Koran.
Exactly!
And now, back to pastor Jones. 😉
😆 … 🙄
CNN is staking out the various NYC area airports for Pastor Jones. I say put him on a plane for Germany, maybe they will be smarter about what to do with him.
And, flash: Mosque still not moving.
CNN is staking out the various NYC area airports for Pastor Jones.
Somebody should pick him up on a mental health warrant.
someone should open the door of the plane and tell him that gawd will catch him.
They had the Sec Def call Jones.
Musta been the biggest day in his life. A lousy cheap ass pastor …
and the close of the article… Wow .. this is as suspected a big huge Mighta. Coulda. But Will It?
This country is just a cartoon. Drenched in religion. And jingoism.

No flies on Pastor Jones, he now says he was “lied” to.
Thank whatever powers that be that this is my night to hang out with my 7-year-old!
Carry on, all!
have fun!
That’s.not.fair.
I guess we can thank CAIR. FWIW.
If I am reading this right, it says they felt this had to be trumpeted because of all the increased discrimination against Muslims.
Ok…………………….
In case any one feels left out with the burning possibly cancelled or suspended, a Tenn minister is taking up the challenge…
Police detonate suspicious toy pony
MSNBC just reported on Maddow that a judge has found DADT unconstitutional.
fantastic……………. only the courts can save us from this mess. No politician ever will.
Calif. judge rules ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ unconstitutional
It’s about bloody time!
Holy fuck.
Sheriffs in North Carolina want access to state computer records identifying anyone with prescriptions for powerful painkillers and other controlled substances.
Look! She found based on FIRST AMDMT:
we’ll see if the injunction holds up.
at lest it is movment… some wrenching of the mass of us locked in cement.
always happy for any sign that I live in a civilized country.
Pure bullshit.
Was school segregation just “political”?
ugh I am starting ot think that is just what many of the ptb DO think of segregation. As they swiftly work to return us to segregation. With a pretty overlay of multiculturalism and pan nutso religionism, as the fake bandaid.
This was probably based on some push polling, but thos poll on the economy seems legit enough to me.
•92% say the US is still in recession
•65% fear a ‘double dip’ recession
•57% are fearful about running out of money in the next year
•44% could easily see their family slipping into bankruptcy if things get worse
•42% say they will spend less money than they did over the last 3 months, while just 10% will spend more. 48% report their personal spending will likely stay even
•09% say the US is in a 1930s style economic depression
•72% say Europe’s financial problems likely to hurt US
•42% say that they or their spouse has had wages or salary reduced
•34% say they or their spouse lost their job or has been laid off
•33% have taken on more hours or another job to try and make ends meet
•28% dipped into a planned retirement account like an IRA or 401K because they needed the money
•09% have had their house foreclosed on
•08% had their child delay college (or graduate school) or drop out to save money
•20% expect their personal finances will recover by the end of 2011, 27% say after the end of 2011, 24% say their personal finances won’t ever fully recover
But don’t worry, Obama is gonna come through with cotton candy and ponies!
Terrorist ponies, no doubt.
That’s right. They blew up the pony, so its just this stale cotton candy for you.
Oh, dear god….
I’ve been watching it for a couple of hours…. seems a huge gas explosion, it burst up from an open field, shot 100, 150 feet in the air. A wall of fire.
We had a strangely blissful summer, no big wildfires, 1100 acres here, 2000 there… but nothing like what we usually hve… then this very strange thing.
Everyone thought it was a plane, it is in the path from SFO, but no one there saw, actually sw a plane, tho everybody thought they heard one.
The fireball went over an hour til PGE, Cal Fire someone managed to get it out.
AP is saying the fireball shot 1000 feet in the air.
I was repeating what a caller to CBS News, who was just across from the field when it blew, said, but the early films of the fireball, it was enormous.
There were alos early reports that a gas station was on fire, but it was finally an explosion on a natural gas line across from a gas station…
NOT to worry! The FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force is on the scene!
I am sure they can just spit on a fire that leveled 20 or so homes and another 20 + are burning, that’ll do it!
Maybe Obama can give a “passionate” speech and the fire will put itself out.
he can lull it to sleep.
It was a Ponybomb… Nothing to see here…
I didn’t realize it was that huge when I saw a clip on CNN earlier. Wow.
