Wednesday again. Wednesday’s suck. I have to finsh up doing my ERD (don’t ask) for class this afternoon, and then probably at least look at what it was I was supposed to read. Oh, by the way, if you’ve been trying to listen to Sedition Radio, I just realized the computer it’s on isn’t running at the moment. Must have gone down on Sunday, when we popped a circuit breaker (turns out you can’t simulatneously suck cat puke out of the carpet with the carpet sucker at the same time you’re shop-vac’ing out the pellet stove when they’re on the same circuit as the lights, three computers, and probably a few other things, too). I’ll get it up and running as soon as I have some coffee (and try and remember what the command is to start the server and the transcoder).
By the way, all you seditionists who are going to see Marc in the Boston area this weekend ought to try and hook up.
See ya.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

In the following MSNBC video, former Attorney General John Ashcroft says that President Bush should be trusted not to abuse new powers granted to him by Congress.
Earlier today, Bush signed into law the Military Commission Act, a bill giving him the legal power to declare any person a detainee. The law has been criticized for removing the right of habeas corpus and limiting the right to see evidence presented against the accused. The bill also gives the president new powers to declare anyone a detainee — including American citizens — and to detain that person without oversight or access to the U.S. court system.
Ashcroft argues that Presidents in the past have not abused executive powers during times of war.

hey fred:
my question is, since dems are smarter than repugs, how come we haven’t stolen an election since the chicago machine died?
Going Forward With Liberal Talk Radio
The Mike Malloy Show will initially broadcast live, from 9PM -12 Midnight (EST) on Nova M Radio affiliate 1480-AM KPHX Phoenix. http://www.1480kphx.com/
:yippee::yippee: Its Roxie :yippee::yippee:
I think in general the dems have not been in control of state and local governments since the early 1990’s.. that may explain a lot of rethug victories.:gate::omg:
:banana::banana: Hi Clodene :banana::banana:
The current pack of dems were actually attempting to keep the investigation of electronic voting fraud minimized before this election..like they had some conspiracy going on with the thugs. :gate::omg:
yeah mike malloy!
but fred, where are our hackers or counter-hackers?
The use of computers to tabulate the vote has been going on for twenty years.. In many cases these computers were the city/county’s time sharing systems which had multiple terminals attached. .. One has to wonder how much vote flipping was done before it became “hard” to do.
Its not hacking its done by the rethug election officials in the county/state election offices. Just like stuffing of ballot boxes has been done by county/local officials since voting was invented. The election officials have full access to the computers and the passwords to access the data bases and being good thugbots. that obey their masters. :gate::omg:
true
but it’s only been the last few elections that have deviated significantly from post-vote surveys.
I think that if you look you will find exit polls were/ still are only done in a limited fashion in bigger areas. The theft of local elections has been pretty common ever since dirt was invented. Exit polls have to be done manually and people cost money.:eek:
It’s also a reflection that absolute power corrupts absolutely. With thugs running most of the state and local governments there is little likelihood that a 2% discrepancy here and 5% discrepancy there will even be noticed.(especially when the errors were planned to occur ahead of time) .When errors in the same direction begin to occur in a majority of county tabulations it adds up to make it noticeable. :gate: :omg:
speaking of which:
have you read somewhere that the nat’l news bureaus are planning on not buying exit polls since they have been so “inaccurate” lately…(which just causes uneasiness amonst the sheeple)?
We know from having thugs in power in Colorado since 1994 that they are extremely well organized and have no sense of morality or compassion. They are there strictly to promote their agenda and will work together do anything necessary at any level to achieve their goals. They corrupt the debate by slime campaigns and paralyze state and local governments through their taxation ( or lack there of) policies. That is why I don’t really think an election is the answer to the problem. Like any cockroach infestation they will just come back.
rethugs are 👿
Oh, by the way, yesterday we handed over dictatorial powers to an incompetent delusional and unqualified malignant-tumor- of- a-president, which is summarized here: http://www.juancole.com/ and which the Times tucked away on page A 16 or something. Only Olberman noticed that habeas corpus got disappeared yesterday. Applauded by all those southerners who loathed Lincoln for temporarily doing the same thing under dire emergency conditions.

The FL Senatorial debate between Katherine “Jesus wants me to be your senator” Harris and Bill “I voted to kill habeus corpus, but vote for me anyway, because what the hell else are you going to do” Nelson is next Monday, 10/23, at 8 PM Eastern time on Florida PBS stations.
This should be worth watching even if nothing incredibly stupid falls out of Cruella’s ugly painted mouth, just to see if Nelson can keep a straight face for the entire hour. Maybe he should use some of the torture devices he voted for to help keep himself in check.
In more positive news, Repig attorney general and gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist has agreed to a second debate against the next governor of the great state of Florida, Jim Davis.
The bad news is the moderator will be CHRIS MATTHEWS.
:omg::omg::omg:
Will we need a moderator for the moderator, or will he be allowed to bloviate over the voices of Davis and Crist like he does on Hardball? Seriously, who thought this was a good idea? Matthews as the voice of reason is like Paris Hilton doing Shakespeare.
I will now pause to allow everyone to make up their own “Paris Hilton DOING Shakespeare” punchline. :hubba:
Although I think necrophilia may be one of the few kinks she hasn’t tried yet. Or at least been caught doing on film.
:rofl2:
I have noticed that a lot of democratic and liberal groups are asking for volunteers to do exit polls. Having the “media” on there side is also another reason to think the election process is not really going to effect the changes needed. :gate::omg:

About 6 inches… Its blowing around .. the plows are just now getting on the road.. The main roads are just icy ..:cold::cold::cold:
ick. Well I suppose it will be cleared up fairly soon. That reminds me I need to buy a new snow shovel…
this is cut and pasted from a Mike Malloy myspace fan bulletin:
“Thank you!!
Edit: I’ve been listening and just heard the caller who asked if maybe they might bring Marc Maron on…Newcomb said be careful what you wish for. I know that Marc isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but I used to enjoy him in the early mornings. Sounds like Newcomb may be in negotiations with him. He said that they were going to have lots more “surprises.””

+Saint of the Day:omg:
Saint Irenaeus is credited with having first assigned the mysterious winged ox, described in Ezekiel and by Saint John in Revelation, to Saint Luke. The first known usage of the emblems of the apocalyptic creatures is in the apse mosaic of Saint Pudentiana in Rome dating to the end of the 4th century, although they were not specifically associated with any one of the Evangelists. Nevertheless, since the time of Saints Jerome (died 420) and Augustine (died 430), the winged ox has been assigned to Saint Luke. This may be an allusion to the sacrifice in the Temple at the beginning of his Gospel, and to Saint Luke’s emphasis on the atonement made by Christ’s suffering and death. Still, no one is taking credit for the seven headed monster with ten horns that makes several appearances in the Apoocalypse. The lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Do you recognize a butchered animal as your Lord and Savior? The Beast within Corrupted System..
:priest:
I wouldn’t call 6 inches deep .. We have had two feet a couple of times.. that makes for vacation time. It is supposed to get up to 38 today so most of it will probably melt.

Hey Druid, I’ll take snow over cold and rainy any day.
I’m hoping we don’t get two feet dumped on us again like last winter…
The most snow I recall in one day was when we got 43 inches. Over two days we got over four feet. That was a lot of snow, even for us. I don’t consider it a storm unless we get at least 15 inches.
California elected that fucking nazi Reagan twice. History repeats. Second time as Farce.

I need to hear more about saint pudentiana — patron saint of porn stars maybe?
Well, Druid, I was told (by a Santero) that my saint was Our Lady of Regla and that my corresponding Orisha (Goddess in African religion of Ifa) was Yemaya/Yemoja. I guess that’s my Saint then, because I never got one in the Catholic religion…
Hey Melina, that’s not a one-legged Russian woman, is it?
thanks PJ..

In about an hour I think
I heard from one Boston-area seditionist who is an occasional poster here that she’s psyched to be going. I’m not sure which of the shows she’s planning on attending, but I encouraged her to post over here and see abut meeting up with whomever else was going. Hopefully we’ll hear from her.
Not much chance of either of us getting there, I’m afraid.
Too bad…I am waiting to hear from Melina if she can come up here.

:banana:yay i didnt have to shovel snow! good thing i wasnt home recently!
Yeah…he has been seanie. Also he is trying to use his school laptop for more stuff.
So funny how some site downloaded all sorts of porn icons onto his desktop and he was trying to delete them, but they were swarming the hard drive icon, like sperms…..they were all over but the mac wouldnt let them past the desktop….so I had to go through and delete them one by one in some other way…and there were a hundred or so clustered aroudn the hard drive icon as if trying to force their way in….
He thoguht I would be mad at him and think that he downloaded this stuff.
I drive him crazy because I always say that its perfectly natural to beinterested in these things and Im not mad at all….
He thinks I should be more uptight….like I tell him that if he finds somehow laong the way that hes gay, its fine with me and I still love him the same…..he rolls his eyes…..says hes pretty sure hes not at all.
Seanie I got the prebuy of the Wii with extra controllers and prebuys of all the games he’ll want (zelda, dragonball….something else…is there another starfox coming?)…and all the extras I could get. I was #15 and theyonly had 20 available for NOvember pickup. Next will be the bigger bundles sold only online at gamestop.
They also did their in store prebuys of the PS3……that is EXPENSIVE!! But it may be one of the only 2 things he wants…and his b’day is mid Jan…..so maybe if he includes the grandparent $$ I will prebuy it for him.
Hell Ive got barf, pee, poop, rain-muck , a flooding basement, with snow coming soon (but that stops the flooding,) and bird poo……
But Im hoping that my new Mexican friends will do my shovelling for me this year. They think they will offer that as an ammenity, because no one will do it when plowing…..we’ll see….
OCTOBER SURPRISE!!!!
this may it folks.
tyger thom is reading a post on daily kos.
the fix is in in ohio amd 3 other states — a stealth purge.
sounds like a federal crime of conspiracy to me.
too f’ing cool if true. we might break up the cabal & get the bastards BEFORE the midterm.
I need to call tech support…Have been calling all morning to the russian mafia and doormen network across manhattan and brighton beach…so, If I dissappear, you know what happened….
Time for a little tech!
:fu:still fuck kos!
gamefaqs and gamestop are the best games sites head and shoulders above the rest! he would probably LOVE gamestop lots of forums and what-not to post on.
how fucked is the new microsoft zune player ugh so tired of closed systems wouldnt even have an ipod if it didnt play mp3 as well as that acc crap!
😥 Thanks a lot, Sean.

ACTION ALERT: Blackwell purged Ohio Voter Rolls Oct 1st.- Vote Early.
by KStreetProjector
Wed Oct 18, 2006 at 05:59:14 AM PDT
A friend, in a position to be present at lunches of GOP insiders here in DC called me on Thursday, they know of my ongoing efforts to make hackable voting end.
My friend was present as a group of Moderate GOP members with Ohio ties lamented how far the party had strayed. There was consensus at the table there was no way they should retain control. The table conversation began with the assumption they party would lose control in this election. The moderates started planning how to take back control of the GOP from the extremists.
Then, one insider, probably an extremist, but certainly very close to Mr. Ken Mehlman abruptly stopped the conversation. He told table that it was impossible they would lose either house. He also predicts an Ohio GOP sweep.
More Below.
* KStreetProjector’s diary :: ::
*
He informed the group that over the last year, in four critical states the GOP needs to hold huge purges of the voter rolls have just been finished.
The insider did not say which four states, but did say Ohio was among them.
His claim was a new Diebold voter registry system had been installed over the last year. The last week of July and the first week of August a “test run” was made of the systems ability to purge ineligable voters. The purge generated names and test letters sent out to 1.2 million Ohio addresses with a focus on University’s, Apartment addresses with high turnover. He claims they made the letters seem just functionary, but they have an action component to avoid being purged from the rolls.
The Insider warmed and said that Blackwell was brilliant in how he did this. The letter went on for a long time about changes in Ohio voting and security and suggested people who might have any concerns about their voting status could come by county offices and confirm their continued voting eligability before election day.
He further added, that since it was conducted as a “test” they only sent letters to a limited number of suspect addresses and “I suspect Blackwell chose criteria very very favorable for us.”
Further the insider stated that Blackwell had only purged the lists after a full 60 days was given for people to respond. Which means even if a voter was on the “termination” list, they would still have been eligable to vote in the primary.
He told they table they believe the purge has probably caught up “hundreds of thousands of students, activists and wanderers with no real job” would show up at the polls and have to vote provisionally.
He predicted to the table that tens of thousands of voters will show up on election day, and once the provisionals are used up will simply not be able to at all.
He also said that this “operation” (The Insiders word, my friend was specific about this” had turned up a lot of additional fascinating information including a number of Democrats in elected office who are registered to vote in several places, and they may explore how to use this information against them.
I am going to assume, Mr. Blackwell’s “test” purge went to no-one registered GOP. His criteria is something I am trying to get a copy of now.
Friday I called friends in Lorain County and Wayne County Ohio. I told them this DC tale. Neither of them had voted yet and I asked them if they could go on Monday to either early vote, or apply for an absentee ballot. And if possible sit for in the Elections Office for an hour and determine if anyone was expressiing surprise they were no longer registered.
If the sample of 11AM-1PM in Lorain County Ohio and 10AM-11AM in Wayne County Ohio are true. Then Ohio Democratic Voters had better go and Vote Early if they plan to vote at all.
At Lorain County, my friend arrived to find a line of over 15 people, many of whom had come back for a second time, all of them Democrats who had arrived to vote and been told that Drivers Liscence Information, or in one case Home Ownership Information had not matched the address provided for Voter Registration.
In one case a college student had been purged because he had changed dorms on campus.
In another case a local blue-collar worker had been purged because his voter registration had only his building address, but his drivers liscense included an apartment number. This tiny difference in information had led to his purging.
While everyone present seemed to have enough information to allow the records to be updated, my friend told me it was being done by one and only one clerk and was taking a very long time, about 5 minutes per person to resolve. Everyone in line confirmed that several voters had given up in frustration and left.
In Wayne County the sample is smaller, but during the one hour he stated 18 people arrived for absentee ballots or to vote early. Wayne County had 3 Diebold TSX Touch Screens set up for early voters. Of those who arrived two of them had been provisionally purged. The first was again a student from a local college, she was sent away and told she had to bring some ID beyond her student ID to prove she was resident at the College. She was wearing a Sherrod Brown button. The second was a local guy who owns two houses on the same block. His drivers liscence is to the one house where he keeps his cars, but his voter roll is in his house where he actually sleeps four houses away. This got resolved with a series of steps that included filling out two forms, and a clerk having to enter the corrected information into two seperate computers.
As an added bonus, My friend listened in and witnessed 8 retired ladies getting instructions on how to be poll workers on the new TSX machines. The instructor was a local elections board member. She was asked many questions by one of the retirees and her answer to almost all of them was “I don’t know how it works, I just know how we are supposed to use it”
Get ready Ohio.
This story also may explain Mr. Blackwell’s sudden discovery of the “two homes and is he really a qualifed Voter” now facing Strickland.
This Blackwell discovery of Mr. Strickland is actually “by-catch” of the much larger net thrown to eliminate hundred of thousands of democrats from the voting rolls.
ACTION: Get to your election boards, bring all the documentation you can. Demand a paper absentee ballot. Alert a everyone you know in Ohio.
Good luck out there. This doesn’t eliminate the fact your Diebold System is utterly hackable, but it certainly explains how Rove plans to drag all your races into the margin of error so hitting the Diebold Button to steal the election doesn’t look so obvious.
He has taken away your right to vote based on any piece of mismatched information in your state records.
I would expect that would be nearly everyone if the test was applied across the board. But I suspect it was not done that way by Mr. Blackwell.

That Ohio stuff is really scary.
Marc Mail:
that’s cool…it’s good to know Marc talking to these people. He may actually land somewhere on radio again.
Hello everybody
Good to hear Marc’s news in regard to Nova M. So Malloy subs for Springer tomorrow night? Please someone record this show. I’m sure I’ll forget! Thanks
How bout Betty calling into Sam Seder this morning. Ha ha, what a ding-a-ling! :nana:
I could have done without Al Franken’s story about his dog eating shit and throwing up! What’s with that? I had to turn the radio off before I :barf:ed! Did I miss a punch line or something? It was not funny to me, but I’ve been in a shitty mood all day and I suspect that took the fun out of his shit eating story.
Perhaps I need to go back on Lexapro?
I donno that I’m gonna be able to stand the next few weeks up to the elections. I’ll prolly have to go back on Lexapro!
All I gotta say about Ohio is if Blackwell does win with the polls running so heavily against him it will be obvious that the fix was in! I HATE these f***ing Republicans.
If the Rethugs hold on to the House and the Senate I’ll have to reassess everything.
Well . . . I’m going away now. Have a good evening folks!
It’s like an amoeba. The Rethugs want to kill Air America and all it does is split in two and begins to multiply.
If Maron doesn’t take it on, I fully understand.
Patti Smith Calls Out George Bush at CBGB
Patti Smith is god. I was told she performed this the other night at the final night of the famous punk club CBGB. Wherever she performed it, she made my hair stand up. She’s not only a great rocker and a great poet, she’s a great American, and more than that, a great human being

If Maron comes back to radio, and the Dems take both houses, I’ll go back to the Church.
No, not enough. They’ll also have to strip Cheney naked and run him through the streets before they apply the coup de grace in the manner in which the Spanish people dispatched captured generals of Napoleon’s army.
Yeah, that would be enough. I’ll go back then.
Well maybe one more thing. President Keith Oberman. Yeah, that would be just about right.
Okay god, did you get that all down? :sammy:
For Whom the Bells Toll
Hey, Kristapea, I heard you on the Newcomb show. I snagged the audio and I’m linking to it at B@B.
I’m so excited about the Nova M venture I’m plotzing. I guess now it depends on whether marc wants to go back to radio. But even if he doesn’t, it means that Sam and probably Randi will have a place to go if AAR folds — and that’s a good thing. I’m also encouraged by some of the people they’ve brought on board. I’d prefer to see some people with more media experience, but it doesn’t look like they have shysters like Evan Cohen this time. I guess the Drobnys learned their lesson.
Anyway, it’ll be great to have Malloy back on.
As for Springer, I subscribe to premium, so I will snag the podcasts and can send CDs…so if you want one, e-mail me at brilliantatbreakfast-at-gmail-dot-com. I am swamped with work on my real job, as well as startup stuff with the Justice for All Institute, so it may be a while, but I’ll get ’em to you as quickly as I can.
Go Mets!!
Yeah! Take that Randi!
Did you hear me totally plug the Morning Seditionist blog? I am so psyched about the possibilty of getting Marc back on the air. Maybe Janeane will want to come back too! I really love what Dr. Mike and Jeff Farias have done with liberal radio here. It’s becoming a community radio station that covers both local and national issues and they have action points every week AND they like Marc Maron! Maybe we need to bug Marc about getting back on the air. I guess I’ll need to register with Myspace to contact him, his site is not really up yet.
Oh my god- what a nice thing to return home to! Marc is being asked to join the newest liberal network!! I hope they offer him something he can live with. Id so love to have him back on the air!!
What is the link to stream that station Krista? Or whats it called? Im going to start saving it immediately.
I cant even get a whole Sam show lately because the stream is so screwed up from AAR….Im gonna have to take a day pass just to download all the shows Ive missed this week alone!
I think you can email him at his site though Krista….Is it Marc at marcmaron dot com? I believe so.
Im still holding out hope to see him this weekend….
very complicated here with the russian wooden leg crowd.
I actually had to threaten some people today…which I never would do if it wasnt life and death. This is literally life and death.
But Im thinking I got things stabilized till next week.
Brill- you can easily transfer the files of those podcasts though any IM program. Its quite easy…and I wish you would transfer this entire week of sam to me …and ring of fire from last sat…..:dancers:
You can stream KPHX 1480 here
I could not find it on the Replay AV list of stations to program it in so I record Sams show and Charles Goyettes’ show and listen to Dr. Mike live. If there’s another way to get it on my list of shows to record that would be cool. But I get to hear it on the radio too, so I have many options.
Check this out about the debate in CT…excellent!
If you have replay av you can save 2 shows at once…or more…
Im gonna look at it tomorrow…
Very excited to get some good shows!
Have to sleep now…..burnt!

oh if i can anyway get some kind of job working on a new radio show if it happens it would make me a happy fucker please consider me for some bullshit position if you can i will quit and come out to wherever its going down in a heartbeat now i will go back and try to somehow punctuate this crap to make it semi readable and again apologies
Thanx for the tip. Classic Lawton Smalls on Sam’s show, and I caught Janeane too. The last half-hour of Randi’s show was pretty interesting as she took a call from author Henry Bechthold.
So, uh, you think he’ll give you a job, Sean?
no chance in hell i am fairly certain i come off as a raving lunatic in my e-mail
wow, man, I was thinking that too!
:rofl2:
:doh:in the final version i sent i mentioned that i was crazy for thinking i could work on a radio show and that the e-mail made me sound like a raving lunatic lol
well, at least you’re sane enough to know that you’re nuts- that’s always a good sign
so what are you up to anyway? i miss the days of trying to get the morning sedition thread to a certain number of posts!
:yippee:yep i am just sane enough to not be crazy! then again thats exactly what a crazy person would say………
I think….anyway, i have to go enjoy the greenery:bong: outside at this juncture…be back shortly
yeah, the blog maronthons..those were crazy days!
:yawn:
Um…I guess now I’m the only one here:paranoid:
