wtf? that picture is hilarious.
dont let that weapon fall into the hands of the terrorist, lol
I s u p p o s e we can fall lower, but hard to see how.
ugh. I landed on Bishop Dolan of NY on CBS with the circus of Chrlie Rose and the wimmens.
Why can’t all the tricksters, all [fake] sides, pull out their bayonets and kill each other?
Clear the way.
Disgusting old Irish faker. On his way to Rome to be made a cardinal, too.
They’ve probably put that boy on a terrerist list. Wish I could say that was sarcasm.
well look who is right beside hom.
the damn thing going off sounded like a gun
oopsie, ya don’t say:
Facebook’s First Public Filing Reveals Its Plan to be a Champion Tax Dodger

But but …. the San Jose/Sly Con Valley Murky News has been informing of what A Beneficent Event it will be!!!! ( Facebook IPO to spark valley economy[!!!!] though they were kind of forced to include this Reuter’s piece on one of their more obscure online entities: California teachers’ pension fund, a Facebook investor, wants women on company’s board shhhhhhhhh! musn’t let anyone know that the Megster and Carlotta and about four others aren’t the only females residing in the Valley (there are, apparently, NO Blacks or Hispanics in the valley), …. a Libertarian’s Disneyland!. )
The predominately White Male …. Murky Management is far more concerned with a call for the [BIG!!!!!] Valley’s residents to hone their focus on censorship in India! :Mercury News editorial: Valley must pull together to fight India censorship …(than their own stunning, historic censorship of reality).
who is ”carlotta”??
Carly Fiorina
I totally forgot about her..
And just stumbled onto this, not shocking, news:
Facebook’s threat to a poor Silicon Valley city – As the social media giant opens a new campus nearby, East Palo Alto residents fear for their community’s future
good thing he’s not an arab or black kick … the Secret Service would be tazing his ass.
The petitioners: How 4 political novices drove the recall movement
Seems clear it happened in part because they meant it… they meant to get somewhere against him and his cohorts.
and DESPITE the democrats, who kept hinting around around that doing it was a bad idea, or if it was going to happen it would be “better” if it happened at the same time as the November elections.
well, like here, they wouldn’t permit any fight back of the Recall. And this state, except wehre R are useful (and useful to blame), is very much in the grip of the DP. Or any acceptable conservatives. And obviously Arnold was a done deal.
It is all so disgusting.
😆
And THERE THEY GO, FOLKS! The British Empire!
A big round of applause!
AND FOR OUR NEXT ACT TONIGHT – The AMERICANS!
It’s probably a scheme to pretend to create jobs for all the people they are throwing off disability and the dole.
Meanwhile we embark on the Big Catholic Wars.
What every flat broke East Ender needs!
To hire-in pub dwelling Liverpudlians in livery!
With a coterie of Catholic coal-sooted cooks from Cork!
Menacing manservants from Manchester!
Priceless, Just fuckin priceless. LOL
sigh I can see the future… rising tides of unregulated underpaid over worked home workers.
in the coldest areas, multitudes of people living underground among the nooks and crannies of abandoned and crumbling infrastructure to stay warm ….
I’m sure what he says is shorthand for: $We$ ™ are all in on it together.
Jesus, this from the sidebar of that piece:
Elderly told: go back to work and downsize – Elderly people should be encouraged to go back to work and move into smaller homes, one of David Cameron’s key advisers said last night.
David’s worried about the elderly’s mental health and well being, …no really.
I think we do the same thing tho, all this cheery shit about Wal Mart greeters… and how lives are longer now (not for everybody).
It was old years ago…
Ah yes, the pas de deux….
from new ballet, Sissy Slap-…..

But you know, hang in there Barry Dance fans, women and menfolk of the liberalishous faith. ..Surely Barry taking it in the ass with every pirouette is some higher level of chess..
Poor Slob. But I guess he always yearned to be soon-to-be Cardinal Dolan’s bitch. Alternative weekends iwth Wuerl of DC… and any others that line up. Maybe they will let Slob pack his own pink glitter lube.
Then they can all get together in the White House and , eh,
encourage young boys to shoot-off the ole marshmallow gun.
OH THINLY VEILED METAPHOR! 😆
ugh.. this whole thing .. made me nutty.

I just tuned in to see Countdown with Keith Olbermann with Sam Seder Filling in for Keith Olbermann with Matt Taibbi being asked about him, Matt that is, being the Taibbi, who last week was diggin’ the Obama Mortgage Settlement Deal but this week he’s the Matt, Taibbi that is, who isn’t diggin it so much.
THEN they had a segment on this Obama / Catlick Wraslin match, with Seder, the guest host not the Friday meal, well, not this particular Friday meal, saying how it comes at a good time for Obama . Indeed, with screen graphic popping up, Seder went on to say while *presently* 😆 only 34% Approve of Obama’s Handling of the Economy and DISAPPROVAL is at 66% the Approval is up from last week’s 26..
One of those days where I think WHOEVER the GOP nominates will beat Obama.

hmm not sure Obama has had a good day, for real, in years. And little relief…. Just remember it is mandatory to have family evenings in the Slob household, from 6:30 on every night, til Memsab goes to bed. At about 10. Why oh why do I know this.
Luckily I have a load of Netfixes coming in in an hour or two. This so fried what little is left of my brains.
And it was only like 24 hours from the fauxnnouncement to the predictable cave.
Doesn’t soound like Slob’s supposed compromise is going ot be acepted. What a shock. They are going where they want to go, the mandated coverage removed entirely from the bill.

jeesh, was that Jerry, the Whimsical ™, Moon Beamed Jesuit of the Empire of the 8th Largest Planetary Prison Economy; his Blawging Doggy; or his Bunches of Wifie and Masteressa (fourth guess, pukesum newsum posing as Brown [CALI] ™ Junior), in response to Ted Rall’s new toon (a wee tip of the hoody to Susie Madrak for the toon).
(hmmmm, ….. perhaps I should have written:
..? …yes, I am anal about clarity………..despite, perhaps, much evidence to the contrary ….(very hard to concentrate on a sole issue, these daze ….cannot imagine why ……..))
It’s Official!
We need a Bigger Milk Carton fro the missing money!
MF Trustee: $1.6B Gap Between Claims, Assets
Official! Up from the 1.2 Billion.
Arrests? Anyone? Hello??! 😆
1.6 Billion! 1.6 Billion! Still Stolen! Not Yet Unstolen! Hello??! 😆

The long version of the response :
Glenn, is very hard…. not to love:
Israel, MEK and state sponsor of Terror groups
as are, so many.
8,000 instances of abuse alleged in Archdiocese bankruptcy hearing
Thsoe numbers seem horrific.
Why do idiots have ”reverence” for the church? Is she trying to share in some non existant priestly holiness?
ANY church.
it’s a mystery to me
oh another thing… wandering around in the wake of the recent Bishops Dress Rehearsal for Full Revolt.. I read that as part of divesting over the past 10, 20 years to avoid losing assets to these child abuse suits, the church has uniformly divested of their hosptials… No connection to the diocese any longer, all set up, re-established as non profit independent corporations.
I’ve read that too, and they did it after they took over so many of what had been public hospitals.
I listened to fucking EJ Dionne on NPR today talk about how churches and charity WERE pastoral work.

Except they are not. They’re part of a scheme. (And horrid little man, too)
They coulda been contendahs.
They coulda been somebody.
It’s all such bullshit.
Seems to me, the gist of the Jesus novel was to get people to go in on lunch. Not so novel either, the early product placement of trying the Miracle Whip to stretch the tuna-fish on the Wonder Bread aside.
You know Anybody Hungry? How bout we gather stuff and pass it out? wasn’t actually a …new testament. Or an exclusive instinct to human beings. I think maybe the stone got rolling to the extent some early cave-dwelling club franchisers got it done, but that has veggies-to-spit-fire nothing to do with Jeebus.
Not like they could have just left the story alone, tho.
A great caterer?
In Jerusalem? LOL
Iran Worried U.S. Might Be Building 8,500th Nuclear Weapon
I dropped in on the IBN, which runs on one of the pBS channels (along with lots of other foreign origin news) Israeli Broadcast News. Normally I avoid it..
Absolutely fucking nuts and in a half hour it was both Iran and Hamas.
What a shame and a pity it all is. Two enormous thugs, the USA!!!USA!!! and that parched heap of nowhere.
Snicker snax…
Oh I am sure it is all above board… but it is tidy and neat too..
Philly.com
Interesting. In Jersey, I hadn’t heard shit about his scheduled exit , the NY Giants being pumped in 24/7.
Now poking around, I see they slipped him out with damn near NOTHIN for funeral coverage
LOL and poking around more on Philly.com , they had a “related story” which makes for the 1996 story when the last Philly Cardianal died . Every other Cardinal in the country came back in the good ole Rape-at-Will days.
Oh they definitely slipped this Bevilaqua out the back door.
Well. not literally.
Afterall, Literally – they are going to bury him in the basement. REALLY.
He left just in the nick….

Occupy DC Evicted From a Winter of Communal Discontent
[link fixed!]
ooops the link failed, if you have the URL just post it and I will fix. 😉
What a wonderful write-up of DC Occupy..
http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2012/02/occupy-dc-eviction/all/1
thank you thank you… 😉
no problem!
It’s such a good depiction… that sense of global flotsam and jetsam of all kinds all levels.
I keep telling myself, something has to break here, break loose I mean, but hard to see how.
whatever it ends up being, we won’t see it coming. Hell, I’m still shocked Occupy in general has gotten the attention it has, changed the debate however little it has.
oh I agree with that…
BTW, If they can get past phone problems, Hedges is about to be on local talk radio – on his articleon Oakland Occupy. I will probably have to turn it off, but I plan to listen for a bit…

It’s all insane. It really is.
But also calculated murder, ways to carry out murder.
Mortgage Settlement as Attorney General Sellout: Deal is Not Done, and Final Version Guaranteed to be Worse Than Advertised
I caught just the end of that economist I hear sometimes locally, Jack Rasmus… this morning.
the thing is a horror. There are no real penalties for doing nothing. AND even if they modify a mortgage, it will AGAIN not be permanent. It may be AGAIN just for two or three years (many found out over recent years that even if they GOT a mod it was for 12 or 13 months) AND under the new legislation, there is no permanent reduction of principle… so when your mod expires and your payments ratchet back up you still owe the inflated amt.
As Rasmus said, oh boy a 20 billion “settlement” for a 700 billion loss.
Yeah that really works.
