You’ll have to get up a little earlier this morning if you want to watch Press the Meat. Thanks to the French Open, the potatoheaded one and his gaggle of gasbags will be on at 8 AM Eastern. This week’s bombastic buffoons (all NBC news ‘reporters’) include Ron Allen, fresh off the Clinton campaign bus, and his counerpart from the Obama campaign, Lee Cowan. Then there’s intrepid Gilligan lookalike, David “how dare you say we wereshills for the Bush administration” Gregory, the woman who must have the most motivation to get out of bed in the morning, Mrs. Allen Greenspan, Andrea Mitchell, Kelly O’Donnell, stuck following the McCain campaign, and proving once again that goatees are for schmucks, Chuck Todd (no offense to Jeff Farias or you other goatee types, of course). The topic of the day? “How can we prop up this half-dead grumpy old man McCain and make a ‘horse race’ out of this thing?”
Now that Clinton has conceded and thrown her support to Obama, the day’s topic on Faze the Nation is, predictably, “What Does Hillary Clinton Want?” ๐ Helping Bob Schieffer figure that out will be Howard Wolfson of the Clinton Campaign, the ever entertaining Charlie Rangel, Jim Webb, and Roger Simon of the ever incorrect Politico.
Turning the dial to Fox News Sunday (does anybody still have a teevee with dials on it?), we find Weaselface Wallace hosting Obama supporter, Governor Tim Kaine of Virginia and McCain supporter, Governor Tim “why waste money maintaining bridges?” Pawlenty of Minnesota. Then the regular fuxheads ponder the question, “is the VP nod likely for Hillary Clinton?”
Over on the Goebbels network, George Snufalufagus has Obama supporter John Kerry, li’l Lindsey Graham, for McCain, and DINO Dianne Feinstein. At the roundtable, it’s The Washington Post’s Jonathan Capeheart, dynamic duo Jay Carney and Claire Shipman, and, of course, George :jerk: Will.
Dianne the Dino pops up on Late Emission with Wolf Blitzkrieg, along with Bob Casey, Krazy Jon Kyl, the extremely horrible Kay Bailey Hutchison (horrible enough to be St. McCain’s veep, perhaps?), Howard Wolfson (again), and Husain Haqqani, Pakistani Ambassador to U.S. (hey, how’d he get in there?).
Later, on 60 Minutes, Scott Pelley reports on the deaths and property damage caused by dust explosions at American factories, Lesley Stahl reports on how Howard Hughes’ money is being used to probe lifeรขโฌโขs medical mysteries through the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (the only catch is, you have to fish the money of the mayonnaise jars he kept it in), and Byron Pitts (whoever that is) reports on some preacher named Joel Osteen, who packs in lots of god fearing Texans down there in Houston.
The Tudors is done for the season, but you can catch up on reruns of Dexter, with back to back episodes starting at 8:00. Truly a sight to behold in Hi-Def.
Have a good one.

You right coasters trying to sleep through the heat or something? No heat here, more like winter.
Good morning. It’s supposed to be really hot today, but so far it’s nice out.
The baby hawks on Houston Street have matured and this time Lincoln took their pictures without being harassed as a suspected terra-ist.
Two things are certain in California’s mounting legal showdown over same-sex marriage: Gay couples will wed this month, and, come November, voters will decide whether the state’s constitution should exclude them from such unions.
If the vote is yes, the only certainty will be confusion.

Awwwww sweet babies … I think it would make beautiful shots with the Wildlife at T.M.O. as the background, especially with The Hawk Family.
A!I!V!
also … Tea Cheers, ALPHA (Wanwenxia) … ๐ great icon you have as well as Sue P.’s … :pirate: A!I!V!
I had one up until some months ago. I had to get up and turn the channel and mess with rabbit ears. It was kinda cool. Now I have the next generation teevee that has buttons to change the channel and volume, still have to get up to change the channel and mess with rabbit ears. Now we are forced into laziness by virtue of the fact that you can’t buy a teevee without remote control anymore. :smack:
We had a little Toshiba with dials and knobs up until a few months ago, when somebody insisted that it was taking up too much room or something, and we had to get rid of it. Older than hell, but it had a great picture.
I don’t know that remotes promote laziness, though. Used to be you just watched one channel all night long (usually whatever network evening news you watched, you just stayed there all night long). Of course, the original version of the remote control was called ‘kids.’
But one doesn’t have to use the remote if one doesn’t want to. ๐
I spose most people spend more energy looking for the remote than would have been spent changing the channel manually. I know I’ve spent 20 minutes or more looking for the damned remote.
I’ve got so many fookin’ remotes I don’t know what they go to. It is about time for a big purge of old busted TVs and computers and phones around here.
I’ve got the rabbit ears and just got my new digital converter. Still no NBC, even poor and fuzzy but a few new stations, mostly public including a jazz station. If I keep trying, I may just be able to get another PBS affiliate.
My 82 year old aunt called me, yesterday to tell me that Hillary’s speech had brought her to tears. My aunt had voted for Hillary in the NY primary but was very upset by some of the things that she said and has become an Obama supporter.
But, she said Hillary’s speech and her heroic campaign made her realize how far women had come, that she really could say to her granddaughter, “You can be anything you want to be.” and that the death of her husband in WWII, had not been in vain.
She thought the Dems had made it a very good week to be proud of the country. Now she wants me to find an Obama yard sign for her front lawn.
Federal prosecutors are aiming to block the sale of the home of Christopher J. Ward, former treasurer of the National Republican Congressional Committee, over allegations that he shifted over $500,000 from Senate Republicans into his personal accounts over a four-year period to make mortgage payments and fund remodeling jobs

I got 3 out of 10 correct- Ted Bundy, Lewis Carol and George Orwell.
I got 1 right, Van Gogh, and that was only because of the language. I guess I don;t have a future in handwriting analysis.
For what it is worth – emailed to AAR
funny i got 4 out of 8
Yeah, I meant 3 out of 8.
I got 5, purely by luck. Though I figured “vormen” or whatever that is was Dutch, so I went with Van Gogh, and the one that looked like it was French was Napoleon. I thought one looked like it was Latin, so I went with QE (not sure if it actually is Latin, but I guess it was a good guess). The GW one looked like that olde tyme Revolutionary War type stuff, so I went with that. Pure guess on Ted Bundy.
Ah, ‘vormen’ is Dutch for forms.
There was a sudden violent thunder storm which knocked out power on Shelter Island and elsewhere on the east end. There are reports of a tornado, too.
Power was back after 5 hours but it has gone off and on.
The misfits are everywhere
Well, I’ve been saying I would say something … but now I think, “why”?
So I will just say this for now, that I do think media everywhere, including AAR & Nova M, continued with the propaganda. … :fist: A!I!V!
Having Obama will just stall and delay most NEEDED ANIMAL ACTIONS…
JUST FOR THE SAKE OF bush’s failed Katrina’s action I could vote for Obama and I say Yea to solely listen, for the sake of Hillary also, to obama.
Obama will continue with the archaic mindset and fantasy FOR NUCLEAR POWER & THE USE OF COAL.
ALL ACTIONS ARE TO LATE for most POLAR BEARS!… This “thought-form” and ACTIONS for environmental safety WILL BE GREAT FOR HUMANS … but not fast enough or STRONG enough for the animals nor the “wild”… and now we have to start with a “dude” who wants to cross to the “rethugs” … with most “AGAIN, BY DEM CHOICE”
