Back to my least favorite location today. Even worse, I have to attend a “meeting,” which, thanks to my rotating schedule, I’ve managed to miss for at least a couple of months now. Pretty much sucks. And it’ll be during the Marc and Sam show (which I really can’t watch at work anyway). Tuesday mornings at 11:00 just don’t do it for me. I’m such a lousy stalker.
In case anyone missed it yesterday, the christofascists are thinking about handing the 2008 election to the Dems!

So it would appear that after chief engineer Bernanke opened the $$$ injection valve that the SBR Titanci has once again survived ..
It amazes me how these problems which are months or years in duration only cause a ten day problem on the
stock marketcrap shoot… I get the impression that Bernanke just lines up his bankers and CEOs in various series and parallel combinations to give the “economy” a blow job hence the “investor” feels good but in this case there is no blue dress to use as evidence. :nixon: 😮 :crap: :paranoid: :paranoid:The problem with aligning yourself with the religious Reich is that you have to endorse their positions on to many issues and that makes you a whore .. ok.. whats new in DC politics. :yuck: :crap: 😮 :gate: :omg: :jason: :jason: :fist:
Blackwater security contractors in Iraq have been involved in at least 195 “escalation of force” incidents since early 2005, including several previously unreported killings of Iraqi civilians, according to a new congressional account of State Department and company documents.
In one of the killings, according to a State Department document, Blackwater personnel tried to cover up what had occurred and provided a false report. In another case, involving a Blackwater convoy’s collision with 18 civilian vehicles, the firm accused its own personnel of lying about the event.
The State Department made little effort to hold Blackwater personnel accountable beyond pressing the company to pay financial compensation to the families of the dead, the documents indicate. In a case involving a drunken Blackwater employee who killed a security guard to one of Iraq’s vice presidents last Christmas Eve, U.S. government personnel helped negotiate a financial settlement and allowed the employee to depart Iraq.

The problem for the religious right is if they don’t revolt they look as if they have no standards. After all they’ve been whining about abortion and homosexuality as their most important issues. On the other hand if they run a third party candidate, they kill the Repigs.
Seems like Giuliani may split the Repigs as he tried to split NYC.
The Republican Party, known since the late 19th century as the party of business, is losing its lock on that title.
New evidence suggests a potentially historic shift in the Republican Party’s identity — what strategists call its “brand.” The votes of many disgruntled fiscal conservatives and other lapsed Republicans are now up for grabs, which could alter U.S. politics in the 2008 elections and beyond.
Some business leaders are drifting away from the party because of the war in Iraq, the growing federal debt and a conservative social agenda they don’t share. In manufacturing sectors such as the auto industry, some Republicans want direct government help with soaring health-care costs, which Republicans in Washington have been reluctant to provide. And some business people want more government action on global warming, arguing that a bolder plan is not only inevitable, but could spur new industries.

here’s some sammy cam links.

Well, I got something on the Sammycam. Is it just a still shot for everyone else?
:love: I think Sam and Marc should have a show called “The Hot Jew Boy Show” :hot: :hubba:
Kristapea – great list of bumper stickers. That woke me up!
Hey KK! :pup:
It’s still right now. They figured out how to pause the camera.
OK, it moved.
AWESOME! I have Sammy Cam! :yippee: :pup: :banana:
:banana: working here, too!
Anyone else having problems with pages loading? Firefox?
:yippee: :banana: :40: :nixon: :alc: :banana: :love: :love: :love:
I feel like Marc is talking to me :love:
Tech guy says it’s not a Firefox problem but a flash player problem. I tried IEx, no better
marc can curse freely now!!!!
this is definitely the way to go!!!
:yippee: :love: :love: :banana:
:fu: FCC
oh…by the way Good Morning bloggies :love: :nixon: :fire:
Man! I hope someone has this taping because Marc is so articulate. He weaves in and out of his bits and adds to them, he’s amazing! :love: :love:
for some reason i lost Marc’s side of the cam.
i tried refreshing, but nothing happens :growl:
nevermind..it worked out
:fustrate:
name for the show….didn’t Marc say something about “Babbling Jews”?
sounds good to me!
hey… :pup: couldn’t get to sleep last night so missed most of the show :tap:
liked that Dylanesque ending :nod:
hey blue! :nixon:
well, sam said they recorded it, so it should be up probably within 24-36 hours
:crap: Missed the whole thing 😮 😮 😯 😯
heh,heh..the top Ringtone at itunes is Let’s impeach the Presidork. :omg:
Neil Young’s new Chrome Dreams II comes out Oct 23rd- the night he is in Seattle- but the heron will be landing that night from the east coast. 😕
The Sammy Cam was a bit frustrating. Buffer this! :fu: But I got enough of it to be happy. So, I guess Marc and Mishna are actually getting a divorce. He can’t be THAT bad to live with, he’s sober. :slap:
No Sammy cam for me, today. Even worse, I forgot my flash drive, so I not only don’t have my podcasts to listen to, but I also don’t have my RoboForm2Go, so I have to remember all of my passwords. Oy.
I already knew this, but I still get a kick out of the fact that the name of the director of the U.S. Cyber Consequences Unit is Scott Borg.
Lefsetz :rant1: on Neil Young ticket prices.
Chrome Dreams I My friend Joel says this was a fake.
pj,
Sam was pretty confidant this show, which was great imho, would be available on demand soon and I just noticed last week’s show is finally available in its entirety at
http://www.samsedershow.com/vod20070927
I am wondering if that one will disappear when the new one gets up.
Do you ever notice how Heartman says he is going to discuss getting back the American dream so he discusses how e lost the American dream but never gets around to talking about how to get it back… Other than the become politically active BS that is. :reaper: :reaper:
You know, it sucks when you get a Zappa tune stuck in your head at work. “Keep it greasy so it’ll go down easy” is not exactly a workplace appropriate thing to be singing to one’s self. Especially the way I sing.
Yikes!
Glad I said no to the tickets. Somehow I don’t get the thrill of the live concert anymore. Much rather have a certain someone standing in front of me making me laugh and cry.
Vernon- you going to Marc’s show in SF?
Doubtful right now unless funds change. However, if he’s dusting off new material I may exercise the American Dream (more debt) and go.
KP, thanks for the bumper stickers. Many excellent ones on that list.
I had no trouble seeing both Sam and Marc. There were very brief periods when I couldn’t hear a few words but, I think, this was the best show so far.
The private security firm Blackwater USA, which has faced mounting criticism following an incident earlier this month in which armed guards from the group purportedly killed 11 unarmed Iraqi civilians, has numerous links to the White House as well as many current and former Republicans.
The connections include the firm’s chief operating officer Joseph Schmitz, who was tapped by President Bush in 2002 to “oversee and police the Pentagon’s military contracts as the Defense Department’s Inspector General.”

Greenspan has a plan to reduce the income inequity between the employed and the unemployed:
“We ought to be opening up our borders to skilled labor from all parts of the world because if we were to do that we would increase the supply of skilled workers that our schools have been unable to create and as a consequence of that we would lower the average wage of skills and reduce the degree of income inequality in this country.”

Anyone going to Marc’s early show at Comix (NYC) on Saturday the 13th? We’ll be there; we were figuring on having dinner there to get the VIP seating.
Afternoon all!

Damn, my homebrew is kickass. :40:
Of course, a little :bong: doesn’t hurt either.
Not that I would ever do anything like that, of course. :no:
What kind of home brew did you make, PJ?
Today I heard some caller on a Spewitt wing-nut radio show say “Of Sean Penn, Kevin Spacey and Danny Glover, I would like to scratch their eyeballs out.”
This could be useful for folks on this blog :cat: :billcat:
