Oh, my goodness! Has anyone seen the article “Missing Dog a Lesson in Never Giving Up Hope” in yesterday’s Wichita Eagle?
Oh, my heart just about broke out of my rib cage upon reading it!!! There I was, trying to snarf down my breakfast at Ryan’s Steakhouse in North Wichita – trying to ignore the hot flashes, mild dizziness and frigid emotional temperatures that accompany early menopause – and along comes this wonderful story!
And I just fell in love with that picture of “Lumpy” – has anyone ever seen such a kind face? She’s an old dog – just like me – but who cares about that, anyway?
Well, okay – I care about that – a lot. The Oil of Olay I began using a decade ago isn’t working all that well – but WSU Professor Dan Close made me forget all that.
As did the creators of “Bella” – a wonderful film I saw this holiday weekend. As did Lumpy, “Bella” made me forget a heckuva lot: The sight of an Operation Save America activist who believes I and millions of others since 1973 should be thrown in jail with no legal representation. I bit my tongue nearly in half – but I remained silent. That’s a coup and a half for me. Succinctly, she’s no match for a lead actor who makes Antonio Banderas look like Senor Wences after a pre-frontal lobotomy.
All in all, this holiday weekend has made me profoundly grateful. There are still miracles among us, even though some people – and some institutions – can toss our hearts to the four winds. And thanks be to God for this!
This is what we will have to endure if Hillary gets re-elected:
It was getting a little crowded in Heaven, so God decided to change the admittance policy. The new law was that in order to get into Heaven, you had to have a really bad day on the day that you died. The policy would go into effect at noon the next day.
So, the next day at 12:01 the first person came to the gates of Heaven. The Angel at the gate, remembering the new policy, promptly asked the man, “Before I let you in, I need you to tell me how your day was going when you died.”
“No problem, the man said. “I came home to my 25th-floor apartment on my lunch hour and caught my wife having an affair. But her lover was nowhere in sight. I immediately began searching for him. My wife was half naked and yelling at me as I searched the entire apartment.
Just as I was about to give up, I happened to glance out onto the balcony and noticed that there was a man hanging off the edge by his fingertips! The nerve of that guy!
Well, I ran out onto the balcony and stomped on his fingers until he fell to the ground.
But wouldn’t you know it, he landed in some trees and bushes that broke his fall and he didn’t die. This ticked me off even more.In a rage, I went back inside to get the first heavy thing I could get my hands on to throw at him.
Oddly enough, the first thing I thought of was the refrigerator. I unplugged it, pushed it out onto the balcony, and tipped it over the side. It plummeted 25 stories and crushed him!
The excitement of the moment was so great that I had a heart attack and died almost instantly.”
The Angel sat back and thought a moment. Technically, the guy did have a bad da y. It was a crime of passion. So, the Angel announced, “OK, sir. Welcome to the Kingdom of Heaven ,” and let him in.
A few seconds later the next guy came up. To the Angel’s surprise, it was Donald Trump.
“Mr. Trump, before I can let you in, I need to hear about what your day was like when you died.”
Trump said, “No problem. But you’re not going to believe this. I was on the balcony of my 26th floor apartment doing my daily exercises. I had been under a lot of pressure so I was really pushing hard to relieve my stress. I guess I got a little carried away, slipped, and accidentally fell over the side!
Luckily, I was able to catch myself by the fingertips on the balcony below mine. But all of a sudden this crazy man comes running out of his apartment, starts cussing, and stomps on my fingers. Well, of course I fell. I hit some trees and bushes at the bottom, which broke my fall, so I didn’t die right away.
As I’m lying there face up on the ground , unable to move and in excruciating pain, I see this guy push his refrigerator of all things off the balcony. It falls the 25 floors and lands on top of me, killing me instantly.”
The Angel is quietly laughing to himself as Trump finishes his story. “I could get used to this new policy,” he thinks to himself. “Very well,” the Angel announces. “Welcome to the Kingdom of Heaven ,” and he lets Trump enter.
A few seconds later, Bill Clinton comes up to the gate. The Angel is almost too shocked to speak. Thoughts of assassination and war pour through the Angel’s head. Finally he says, “Mr. President, please tell me what it was like the day you died.”
Clinton says, “OK, picture this. I’m naked, inside a refrigerator……
Here’s something the Dems will enjoy.
MISSISSIPPI SEN. TRENT LOTT, SENATE’S SECOND-RANKING REPUBLICAN, TO RESIGN
BEFORE END OF THE YEAR
Fox News
rats leave sinking ships

TRENT LOTT RESIGNS SO HE CAN IMMEDIATELY TAKE A LOBBYING JOB
Source: MSNBC
NBC News has learned that Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss., the minority whip is in the midst of informing close allies that he plans to resign his senate seat before the end of the year. It’s possible a formal announcement of his plans could take place as early as today.
Lott’s office initially denied that he he would step down, but subsequent requests for information about his plans went unanswered.
While the exactly reason Lott is stepping down before he finishes his term is unknown, the general speculation is that a quick departure immunizes Lott against tougher restrictions in a new lobbying law that takes effect at the end of the year. That law would require Senators to wait two-years before entering the lucrative world of lobbying Congress.
*****
Wouldn’t want the former Speaker of the House to have to engage in productive employement or anything . . .
Linda,Lott is saying he has other “opportunies” he’s going to pursue. No spin zone, don’t-cha-know…
Good riddance Trent.
What’s this? I hear that bush has personally invited Al Gore to the White House.
bush is receiving some of the Nobel winners today I guess.
The private invite to Gore. I wonder if bush is wanting some advice? Better late then never.
Gore is a better man then me. I’d tell bush to take a flying leap at a rolling donut.
“…a quick departure immunizes Lott against tougher restrictions in a new lobbying law that takes effect at the end of the year. That law would require Senators to wait two-years before entering the lucrative world of lobbying Congress.”
Yep, “other opportunities.” He must accept those before year end.
To h*ll with the people!
We must not expect the haves and the have mores to be restricted in any way!
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4518691
Only bad if a repulican?
The slimy bleeps who wrote the rules did it so slimy bleeps like Lott could do what he is doing.
Bleep, bleep and bleep.
tahwos,
Are you trying to make this a partisan issue?
It’s a situation that deserves criticism. It’s wrong. It’s especially wrong of someone who has been entrusted to lead our country.
Sadly, some won’t see that this is WE THE PEOPLE being used and the system being abused. Until the day comes that we stop this partisan bickering solutions will be slow.
This isn’t a right or left problem. Why make it that way?
Remember Tom Daschle. He has set on the board of several corporations since his defeat while serving as speaker of the house. I’m sure that his influence in the government was helpful for him. His wife is now and was during his service in congress a lobbyist for big oil. He is a democrat BTW.
Talking as if this is a partisan issue is counter productive. It is Lott today who will it be tomorrow. Maybe the new ethic rules will help but not by much. Then wives and children will be paid for the work the ex-senator and congressman will be doing.
What this topic does is inform some who are not aware this is going on in both parties.
Linda you and I agree on this one. Is this a first?
Nope, not trying t make it partisan. Just ammused at the phoney outrage when it’s a republican and pretty much ignored when it’s a democrat.
All the time that Dashle was majority leader of the Senate his wife was making millions lobbying the Senate.
No outrage.
But, now, it’s the racist Lott! Oughta be a law!
….this is going on in both parties.
Posted by: ksgrm | November 26, 2007 at 11:01 AM
When republicans say, “this is going on in both parties”, it means it’s being done mostly in their party and they’re looking for cover.
xxx that isn’t at all what I said but your response is what I can expect from someone who refuses to think outside the box. It’s not comfortable for them outside so they carry their prejudices around like a shield.
As usual, germie has so many things wrong here it’s hard to know where to start. If “she” is that uninformed on the obvious things, ya gotta wonder about the veracity of ANY of “her” posts.
“Remember Tom Daschle. He has set on the board of several corporations since his defeat while serving as speaker of the house.”
People SIT on boards, they dont “set” on them. Did you fail first grade?
And Tom was NEVER speaker of the house. He was a senator.
Germie must get all her info from fux news. All wrong, all the time.

Lovely. And now the troll is a spammer, as well.
Hehehe, good one, KSGrrl.
And welcome back.
Kansas Troll claimed he had gotten you banned. Why am I not surprised that what he wrote was a LIE?
Here’s another nail in the Republic party coffin:

November 26, 2007Short of Funds, G.O.P. Recruits the Rich to Run
By RAYMOND HERNANDEZWASHINGTON, Nov. 25 — Confronting an enormous fund-raising gap with Democrats, Republican Party officials are aggressively recruiting wealthy candidates who can spend large sums of their own money to finance their Congressional races, party officials say.
At this point, strategists for the National Republican Congressional Committee have enlisted wealthy candidates to run in at least a dozen competitive Congressional districts nationwide, particularly those where Democrats are finishing their first term and are thus considered most vulnerable. They say more are on the way.
These wealthy Republicans have each already invested $100,000 to $1 million of their own money to finance their campaigns, according to campaign finance disclosure reports and interviews with party strategists. Experts say that is a large amount for this early in the cycle.
*****
Well . . . at least they’re making no bones about who their base is–as Worst. President. Ever. said at a black-tie dinner event once, “some call you the haves and the have-mores, I call you my base.”
Frmgrl thank you for the correction. When I am tying I often hurry thru and get my to and too wrong also.
Sorry I referred to Daschle by the wrong moniker but my point was that he and his wife have a very large income from lobbyist activites.
By the way that didn’t come from Fox or anyother news source. I researched it myself.
O.K., whomever is next president needs to end this cozy relationship with Terrorist Arabia:
Saudi rape victim ‘having affair’
The case of the unidentified woman, 19, drew international criticism after an appeal increased her 90-lash sentence to 200 lashes and six months’ jail.
The statement carried by the official press agency late on Saturday said the sentence would be carried out in accordance with Saudi law.
The woman was initially to be punished for violating strict gender segregation laws in Saudi Arabia, for riding in the car of a man who was not related to her when they were both attacked.
Adultery is a punishable offence in Saudi Arabia’s strict system of Islamic law, and correspondents say judges are given wide powers to impose custodial sentences or corporal punishment.
Her sentence was increased on appeal after judges wanted to punish her for attempting to use the media to influence the case. Her attackers’ sentences – originally up to five years – were also doubled.
The woman’s companion was sentenced to 90 lashes.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7112999.stm
KSGrm writes that for Senate Majority Leader Dascle is a lobbyist, and that she researched herself.
Strange, here’s what Wikipedia says that Tom Dascle is doing now:
He is currently a Special Policy Advisor at the law firm Alston & Bird LLP, visiting professor at the Georgetown Public Policy Institute at Georgetown University, and a Distinguished Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress.
In Spring 2008, Thomas Daschle will be a David Rubenstein Distinguished Visitor at the American Academy in Berlin, Germany.
*****
No mention of lobbying . . .
AmWay–
Are you condemning Arabia’s draconian and medieval justice system, or are you condemning the Bush administration for doing nothing to their “friends?”
The first one we can’t do much about if Bush is going to continue to kiss Saudi ass . . .
“Kansas Troll claimed he had gotten you banned.”
heheheheheh! WTF? Are you kidding?
HEE HEE HEE HEEEEEEEEE. That’s a good one.
No, I’ve never been banned, unlike Kansas. I’ve been busy.
One of my best friends was almost killed in a car wreck and I’ve been busy taking care of her place and mine while she is in the hospital and rehab.
Also, I’m SICK of trolls and idiots here. I just stopped in today, and I see that Forrest Gump was right.
Double S, Double D.
Hee hee heeee. I’m still laughing about the troll saying I’ve been banned.
Gee, if he would pay up on his $5000 bet, I’d put it up as a bet with him that I’ve NEVER been banned.
Double or nothing troll boy, what do ya say?
Capn you are much too hung up on Bush. Every American President that I can remember has sucked up to the Saudi government.
I think their muslim religion is pretty screwy when converted to political law, but to each their own.
But as I said – WHOMever is elected, I hope we cut these bonds of friendship.
KSGrrl–
Yup, the Kansas Troll is truly a legend in his own mind . . .
AmWay–
Did “every other American president” kiss and hold hands with Saudi princes?
http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0426/dailyUpdate.html?s=rel
Scroll down and look at Bush holding hands with some feudal monarch with a tablecloth on his head.
They’re walking through flowers holding hands like little girls . . .
“But as I [AmWay] said – WHOMever is elected, I hope we cut these bonds of friendship.”
1. Whomever is not a word. Whom is a word, but whomever is not.
2. Why are you whining about what the NEXT president might do? If you want change, you condemn the guy who’s doing it right now.
‘Course that would mean condeming Bush which is what you as an “independent” SAY you’re willing to do but as a right-wing shill, you never actually DO . . .

Just passing along information. It was on most of the Graphic Boards all over the Web.
But hey, if you don’t need free software, so be it.
I just thought some student or someone needing quality video and presentation software might get some use out of it.
Lot of software companies use Camtasia Studio present their software and provided tutorials.
I’ll keep the good info to myself next time Tom. :)
Tom, now if we can get Kansas to keep the bad stuff to himself as well then you had a very good day.
Kansas,
Whether anyone else cares about the link you posted, I appreciate it. I’ll be doing some video converting soon, and that program may be what I need. The only problem? I have Vista.
CapnAmerica? LOL! That nic says volumes about you’re Walter Mitty mind!
I’m wondering just how far up your ass you’re head would have to be to not know that Alston & Bird LLP was one of the largest lobbying firms in the nation.
In fact, their DC branch is almost 100% dedicated to lobbying. Now, I wonder why they hired Tom?
Nimrod
It’s “your,” tahos.
Their website says that “on behalf of our many clients, we lobby Congress, Treasury and IRS on various international tax issues.”
So apparently this law firm is involved in some lobbying. How much isn’t clear
I wonder how much lobbying Daschle will be involved in as a visiting professor in Germany . . .
More Busheconomics coming our way.
May Heaven help us all.

Forecast: U.S. dollar could plunge 90 pct
Published: Nov. 19, 2007 at 2:16 PM
RHINEBECK, N.Y., Nov. 19 (UPI) — A financial crisis will likely send the U.S. dollar into a free fall of as much as 90 percent and gold soaring to $2,000 an ounce, a trends researcher said.
“We are going to see economic times the likes of which no living person has seen,” Trends Research Institute Director Gerald Celente said, forecasting a “Panic of 2008.”
“The bigger they are, the harder they’ll fall,” he said in an interview with New York’s Hudson Valley Business Journal.
Celente — who forecast the subprime mortgage financial crisis and the dollar’s decline a year ago and gold’s current rise in May — told the newspaper the subprime mortgage meltdown was just the first “small, high-risk segment of the market” to collapse.
Derivative dealers, hedge funds, buyout firms and other market players will also unravel, he said.
Massive corporate losses, such as those recently posted by Citigroup Inc. and General Motors Corp., will also be fairly common “for some time to come,” he said.
He said he would not “be surprised if giants tumble to their deaths,” Celente said.
The Panic of 2008 will lead to a lower U.S. standard of living, he said.
A result will be a drop in holiday spending a year from now, followed by a permanent end of the “retail holiday frenzy” that has driven the U.S. economy since the 1940s, he said.
Did anyone else read the Leonard Pitt’s column today?
Here’s more:
http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/21882976
The parents of a 13-year-old Missouri girl who hanged herself after a failed MySpace romance — later uncovered as a hoax — say they have yet to receive an apology from the family they blame for their daughter’s death. Megan befriended Lori and Curt Drew’s daughter in elementary school, and the two became close, Meier said. When Megan transferred to a different middle school last fall, to help her deal with her depression and get away from some bullies, the two girls grew apart, her parents said.
Around the same time, Megan started to use the Internet, under the supervision of her parents. The eighth-grader browsed through her friends’ websites and chatted about school. When a boy messaged Megan on MySpace and asked to be friends,(his name was “Josh”) the girl excitedly agreed. Megan, a girl who had battled attention deficit disorder, depression and a weight problem for much of her young life, believed him, despite her mother’s warnings to be cautious.
In October 2006, “Josh” told Megan he had heard she was a terrible friend and person. Megan’s mother Tina, who had to leave to take Megan’s younger sister, Allison, to a doctor’s appointment, ordered Megan to get off the computer…..she didn’t.
That evening, as her parents were downstairs preparing for dinner, Megan wrapped a cloth cord around her neck and hanged herself in her closet. She died the following day.
In the weeks that followed, the Drews comforted the Meiers. They said nothing to them about the fake MySpace account.They prayed at the wake and consoled sobbing community members at Megan’s funeral. They invited the Meiers to birthday parties and had younger sisier Allison over to bake holiday cookies. They asked the Meiers to help hide Christmas gifts in their garage, far from their own children’s prying eyes.
Last Thanksgiving weekend, the Meiers learned the truth from a neighbor who had figured out that Lori Drew (the MOTHER!) had conducted the online relationship with Megan. In a fit of rage, they hacked up one of the gifts they were storing – a foosball table – with an ax and sledgehammer. They dumped the pieces onto the Drews’ driveway.
“I heard this god-awful screaming,” said neighbor Kristie Kriss, 48. “It was Tina. When I heard what happened, I couldn’t believe it.”
Days later, when the Drews complained to the police about the loss of their foosball table, the truth became public.
According to a police report, Lori Drew said she “instigated and monitored” a fake account before Megan’s suicide “for the sole purpose of communicating” with the girl to see if Magan would say anything bad about her own daughter.
Ultimately, investigators told the Meiers that while the hoax was cruel, it was not criminal.

Was the parents of the girl “friend” RepubliCONs?
Since Laurie Drew is a member of the St. Petersburg Chamber of Commerce, it sure looks like it.
Ann Coulter and the Swift Boaters would be so proud . . .

I think max swallowed the neocon “fear” pill without even a drink of kookaide to wash it down.

If the girl was suffering from depression what the hell were her parents doing letting her surf the net for?
Don’t you know Nathan? It’s OK to make anything partisan if you’re a liberal. Even the tragic death of a teenage girl.
I thought CapnAmerica had his head up his ass accidentally, or maybe out of ignorance.
He’s just purposely hiding from reality.
Hint Capn, it’s giving you shity outlook on life.
KFG,
For being a member of the pary which thinks that Bush is monitoring your library book check outs, reading your emails, listening to your phone calls, and arresting you and sending you to be waterboarded you are one to be talking about paranoid fear mongering…
So. Last month, Larry Flynt went on Fox apparently has the goods on a United States Senator, and is “hoping to expose a bombshell” of “huge proportions” that would “stand DC and the nation on its head.” Oh, and Flynt stipulated that the scandal involved a member of the GOP.
http://bigheaddc.com/2007/10/26/larry-flynt-teases-new-huge-gop-senate-sex-scandal/
The internets seemed to think it’s Mitch McConnell. But with today’s resignation, kind of makes you wonder whether Lott felt the need to beat Flynt to the punch to the punch.
Nathan, I’m not a democrat and have said that many times before. Do try to keep up.
KFG,
The point still stands.
You might not be a Democrat, but something tells me that is exactly who you vote for.
Since we are playing semantics…
or as you love to say KFG, a pipe is not a pipe??? LOL
I am not a Republican then.
I am a conservative who happens to vote for Republicans, support Republicans and their values.

============================Nathan, if you cant figure it out, then there is no use trying to explain it to you… you will just engage in a nit picking contest, and its Monday, and I am not in a mood for that today!!
But, it really does have a connection to mAnn Coulter and the Shwift boat Vets… Just think about it REAL hard…
Saw that Hillary doesn’t beat out most of the repub. candidates in a match up poll. I’m thinking now that she may not be one, the job is too important to risk over electability issues. Edwards and Barrack both beat out the repubs.
Let’s see, Ann Coulter, highly sucessful conservative pundit.
Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, highly decorated Viet Nam war heros.
I’m thinking real hard Chas., what exactly is the connection?
Nimrod
Chas,
Why bother responding to my post, which was directed to CapnAmerica, if you were not going to answer the question?
Why don’t you go do something productive like actually admitting that Jesus is your Lord and Savior and that no one is saved without him?
Isn’t that what a Christian should be saying?
Wow, all these non-party affiliated posters suddenly appear. It’s almost like NIC switching.

“Nathan” –
If you had been paying attention I think you would have realized that “ksfarmgrrl” has issues with Kansas Democrats, and has never shown any party affiliation as rationalization or justitfication for her views.
I, on the other hand, have been a Democrat most of my life (raised by Republic Party adherants who finaly came to their senses. ;-) )
And, as a good Democrat, I never believe in everything the Democratic Party advocates. That’s why it’s so funny to see posts on this forum that talk about Democrats “marching in lock-step.” I’m a Will Rogers Democrat. (You know the quote: “I belong to no *organized* political party; I’m a Democrat.”)
Thing is, the Republic Party has been so wrong, for so long, it amazes not a bit that some of the more thoughtful conservative posters to this forum attempt to run away from the tag of Republic; even as they recite the party line.
Check out today’s washingtonpost.com for Bob Novak’s column. He’s attacking Mike Huckabee for being a fake conservative! The Faux Noise Channel is being attacked by Fredrick of Hollywood for being (gasp!) *biased!* because they’re all for pro-choice, pro-gay, pro-gun control Rudy Giulani.
I became a Democrat because I disagreed with Republic Party advocates. But way back then, I could respect the conservative point of view.
Today, there is no such thing as conservative *principles.*
Contrary to the claim made by Nathan in his earlier post, public records indicate that Nathan is indeed a registered Republican. So much for the honesty of Nathan.
Thanks for reading my posts MonkeyHawk, and while I may not say so often enough, you are one of the BEST posters here.
The enemy of my enemy is not always my friend. And REPUBLICANS are enemy number one for this country. It doesnt make democrats my friends.
Democrats and republicans, corporatists all. And most libertarians are just republican light. Republicans with SLIGHTLY less bigotry.
I’m thinking the party that best represents me is the Green Party, but I have some issues with them too. So I’ll continue to work for and vote for the individual candidates I think are best. Too bad that is so SELDOM a republican.
David Adkins excepted.
“Today, there is no such thing as conservative *principles.*”
Agreed. And the democrats are no longer progressive either.
So, what is a fiscally conservative, moderate capitalist, athiest, constitution loving, equal opportunity and anti-bigotry voter to do?
Looks like stay at home on the first Tuesday in November.
Except that lets the bigoted wingnuts, bedwetters and military industrial complex assholes win.
And THAT is not acceptable. As the great Micheal Moore once said, “Dude, where’s my country?”
It looks to me like the answer is “in the pockets of corporate america”.
I’m a registered gloater. I vote and then gloat depending on the circumstances.
Riding over the road bumps of the GORACLE and the Swift-boated as we speak. :)
did you write that farm girl? not bad.
write what?
Unless someone stole my nic, I wrote everything today over my name.
Correction–
Trent Lott, or old hair-helmet as I like to call him, was not the House Speaker. He was the Senate Majority Leader . . . you know, back when the Senate had a majority of Republican, which they don’t anymore, thanks to Worst. President. Ever.
I always get the hair-helmet confused with Tom DeLay. All those old white men look alike to me . . .
“ksfarmgrrl” –
It’s not as if I expect it to turn out, but I’ve finally decided to back John Edwards in the Democratic Primaries.
The best part of his message is when he says we cannot continue with the way things have been done.
It isn’t government of, by, or for the *corporations,* it’s supposed to be the *people.* I don’t hear anyone else who’s running for president saying that.
Electing a president is just changing madams in the brothel

============================Nathan, if you cant figure it out, then there is no use trying to explain it to you… you will just engage in a nit picking contest, and its Monday, and I am not in a mood for that today!!
But, it really does have a connection to mAnn Coulter and the Shwift boat Vets… Just think about it REAL hard…

I’ve got a dollar that says Chas can’t make a coherant connection.
Takers, anyone?
Interesting info. on balance of trade deficits with nations we do bus. with. China has come out like a champ under bush, much better than say Japan.http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/index.htmlI believe the mechanism for self correcting a weak currency, is the ability of the country with the weak currency to export its way out of it. I don’t think that applies in the bush new world order, so not sure what will stop the dollar free fall.
Gmc trying to get rid of his worthless dollar, I see.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton trails five top Republican presidential contenders in general election match-ups, a drop in support from this summer, according to a poll released on Monday.
Clinton’s top Democratic rivals, Barack Obama and John Edwards, still lead Republicans in hypothetical match-ups ahead of the November 4, 2008, presidential election, the survey by Zogby Interactive showed.

Queen Hillary is running away with the Democrat nomination. Yet, according to this poll, she can’t beat the Republican, no matter who it is! If I were a Dem, I’d be discouraged. I mean all of this scandal, the Iraq war, etc… ,a perfect storm against Republicans, and Americans still prefer a Republican in the White House. Smarter than I thought.
Will the Dems kick her to the curb?? Ask Queen Oprah.
Outlander I heard a statistic this morning that was interesting. Only 13% of the people polled thought Hillary was honest and trustworthy. Therein lies the chink in her armour. If you can’t trust someone you won’t elect them to be your prez.
Linda you and I agree on this one. Is this a first?Posted by: ksgrm
We see the REAL answer to all the ills of this country, the answer to the war, taxes, welfare, SS. Name a problem in this country and THIS is the answer. You two I must express my sorrow to you both, as others feel they must continue to be the PROBLEM.
Thank you for understanding Writer.
Hillary keeps making statements about “experience” needed to be President. Slam against Obama who might be leading her in the Iowa polls.
Let’s investigate her wish!
President Bush had experience, yet has created bad precedent for Presidents. He’s a sell out, first it was to the Energy cabal, Enron and friends. Deregulation of Energy for profits at consumers expense.
Bush with experience let the lobbyist programs become more entrenched in the White House and Congress.
The zeal to only hire Republicans as leaders of federal agencies, allowed Tom Delay schemers corruption occur.
The Hammer..Tom Delay was called, making sure Republicans dominate politically for all time, illegally govern if they have to.
Tom Delay funneled money for Republicans sake and some of it was stolen from Tribes
trying to reopen Texas Casinos.
Tom Delay and lobbyist friends so brazen, ethics rules they broke had no penalty for a long time.
Republicans on the House Ethics board refused to find Tom Delay’s crimes.
Eventually after much fraud occurred, Delay was forced out of Congress and still claims he did nothing wrong.
Cheney is big proponent of Republican hiring, instead of best person qualified. It started with Christine Whitman formerly hired head of the EPA, Environmental Protection Agency.
She claimed 911 air wasn’t toxic in New York. That goes along with White House claiming global warming isn’t happening.
It’s political reasoning, the fix is demanding air is cleaned up.
Regulations on air polluters. Bush has always wanted self reporting violations from corporations. So he wants deregulation processes much as possible.
Air polluters paid for that, putting Bush in the White House.
Deregulation of Energy at consumers expense.
Cheney likes Republicans so their politically YES people to him.
Backing up his lies how the war in Iraq was supposed to be easy.
Republicans to cheer when Bush claimed war in Iraq Mission Accomplished too early.
This is what Hillary wants, political experience to be President.
Bush has devalued the dollar less than a Euro to finance his war of choice in Iraq.
Everyone wanted Saddam taken care of but this is a war trying to influence Iraq’s oil.
Hillary with her experience, agreed to Bush’s war in Iraq and continually financing it. She supports weakening the dollar while trying to make boatloads of it.
She agreed with Bush keeping a military threat on Iran. They are subject to bombing at any time Bush sees a need.
With polls so low, President Bush politically can’t bomb Iran as The Decider.
He might, trying to influence who the next President could be. He could moderately bomb one building, making a point to Iran.
It worked in Syria recently.
Hillary claims her experience as former First Lady and policy talks with President Clinton.
Her First Lady experience was a failure. Politics is one thing, what about her marital problems?
How did she allow Monica Lewinsky blackmail to almost occur? After she had the evidence, allowed Billy to lie publicly about it.
That got him impeached by House of Representatives.
Hillary was part of that mass pardoning and her brother involved in final days of Clinton Presidency.
People who shouldn’t have received a Pardon, she helped.
She has made bad policy decisions in a variety of ways for years.
Billy ruining their Oval Office with Monica, he shouldn’t be in there ever again.
Hillary may want the Presidency, but Billy doesn’t need to be in the White House again.
GOP really dislikes that idea hating on Hillary passionately.
I don’t know who Obama’s running mate could be…but he’s my choice to be President, because of not having THAT kind of experience politically.
He’s not part of America’s political underbelly and back room deals. He’s not from a political legacy family.
He has to want regulation of Energy. That guides national and world policy with air and water. Oil companies have to be regulated and their profit taking decreased.
Someone has to disagree with Bush in every way to lead this country in the future.
Hillary partly or has agreed with Bush too often.
The below is an email from the Human Rights Commission. A different message than usual from such a group.
“Corporate America is clearly ahead of the curve on GLBT equality. This year, a record 195 companies received a 100 percent score on our Corporate Equality Index. And with the historic passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act in the U.S. House, we’re closer than ever to workplace equality.
“But many companies still have considerable room for improvement. Our Buying for Equality guide will help you send the message that GLBT equality is good for business. That’s what 250,000 people like you did last year.
“We’re already seeing real progress in workplaces across the country. Together, we can make it a revolution.”
http://www.hrc.org/buyersguide/index.asp
Would be interested to hear what others think of this message and approach.
250,000 is a big number, but if Mark J. Penn is correct, it will take 3 million for this to register as a real trend.
Messed up, it is not Human Right Commission, rather the above is from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. Not sure how I got on their list; could have been my sister in law.
Would be interested to hear what others think of this message and approach.

What do I think?
I think it pretty much sucks.
Like we need another “guide” to tell us how to buy products.
It was good to see President Gore in the White House today where he has belonged these last many years.
the shrub looked like a deer in headlights!
If I’d have been Gore, I would have said to bush “Sorry about that whole everybody hates you thing. It must really suck to be you. Wanna see my Oscar and Nobel prize?”
http://www.nypost.com/seven/11252007/gossip/pagesix/de_palma_iraq_flick_bombs_582058.htm
If your gonna catch “Redacted”, you’ll have to hurry. Imagine, Americans not wanting to pay to see an anti-American propaganda film.
Oh, and Mark Cuban is a traitor. Boycott his NBA franchise.
I’ll see it if I can just cuz you don’t want me to outlander. Same goes for that other movie coming out.
Jr, that was funny as all get out.
Mrage, I don’t go around attacking Obama, and I think dems need to stick together if we are going to win the white house. Most of what you wrote was pure crap and you know it.
Ksgrm, yet she is still winning.
I did something brave for myself today. I rode in a helicopter. See, my whole life I’ve been scared of even the idea of riding in one, much less being around one- when I’ve had to load patients I’d be petrified and stick right with the flight nurse. I’m so glad I did it. All this time all I could think about is how those people can get in those helicopters every day. Now I know. It is simply awesome.
I’ll be catching that film one way or the other there outie.
Get the DVD if I need to. Then donate it to the library.
I don’t close my mind to things I’ve not seen.
“What do I think?

One thing I thought that was interesting, that you must have missed was this – “Corporate America is clearly ahead of the curve on GLBT equality.”
People do make political statements in terms of what they will buy or boycott. It is the American way. But, as I indicate, it is far from being a big enough movement to make much of an impact.
“Redacted” – which “could be the worst movie I’ve ever seen,” said critic Michael Medved
THAT’S From outie’s link.
Mike Medved outie?
A washed up movie critic AND talk radio shill?
Yeah he’s a reeeaaaal authority.
And the New York Post!
Hell outlander, post stuff from a restroom wall. It’s about as relevant.
JR your biggest defect continues to be your inability to handle criticism. And you argue with people who are much smarter than you.
Pmom, For a real thrill have them take you up and show you what the chopper can do. Oh, and BTW you might want to bring a barf bag along. Some of those pilots can get kind of crazy
Medved claims to be a Jewish guy, former movie critic turned talk radio host, who is so conservative he makes Rush look liberal… And get this, he LIKES fundamentalist christians… like ummm fundamentalist christians will tell him he is going to “hell” if he doesnt believe what they tell him, but… Medved thinks they are terriffic!!
I suspect his Jewish family/friends pray for him daily!
A film critic gives his OPINION on a movie. JR why should Medved’s opinion be more or less relevant than anyone else’s?
Or is an opinion only valid if they agree with you JR?
Pat? I continue to try and be worthy of your obsession with me.
Well dear, I didn’t get any criticism, I gave it.
Outlander is being closed minded. I said so.
“Freebird”?
Michael Medved does not have an objective mind. He is as politically motivated as I am.
I saw most of “The Passion” I DO NOT tell anyone not to see it. I have advised others that the film is gratuitously and sickeningly violent. But I told no one to avoid the film.
This is not the case with outlander, Bill O’Reilly etc. THEY advocate protest and boycott….against a film they will NOT see.
Freebird–
Michael Medved is a conservative talk-radio host.
Of course, he’s not going to like it.
This movie only debuted in 15 movie houses, mainly in NY and California.
I’ll get it from Netflicks when it goes to video.
Pro-lifer Bob Roethlisberger was arrested and jailed over Thanksgiving weekend in a northern suburb of Atlanta, GA on the charge of “Disorderly Conduct” for driving Operation Rescue’s Truth Truck bearing signs with photos of aborted babies, as is often done in Wichita, KS. The Truth Truck was impounded, since local police deemed the truck’s photos vulgar and obscene. Mr. Roethlisberger was arrested and incarcerated for 3 days after refusing to remove the signs, then released on a $1000 bond. When the Truth Truck was released from impound, the signs and their mounting hardware had been damaged by police forcibly ripping the signs from the truck. Police, and specifically Chief of Police Charles M. Walters, phone 770-513-5000, email Charles.Walters@gwinnettcounty.com , are rightfully being accused of religious discrimination, harassment, and violations of federal civil rights of free speech, freedom of expression, and free exercise of religion.We must wonder, if the local police consider abortion so vulgar and obscene, why they are not out shutting down some of Atlanta’s filthy, unsafe abortion mills, and arresting the abortionist quacks.
PM,
Hillary has to stop attacking Obama’s lack of experience. She has experience in politics I don’t like.
Will her mind change if she doesn’t win the nomination? Why would Obama gain experience so soon? He is less experienced in political sleaze.
He may know fewer lobbyists. Hillary is taking lobbyists money right now. She knows them well.
Lobbyists corrupted Republicans, why are they different with Democrats?
She is arguing for Republicans, what else is Obama not experienced to do quickly? He couldn’t ramp up to the War in Iraq, fast as she can? Her rubber stamping Bush on Iraq and Iran, is not a good experience to have!
He can’t create a Health Care Plan, like hers failed long ago. Sure he can.
They are no different in abilities. Her First Lady experience to me, was a failure. She failed to control her house.
Monica and the Pardons were bad experiences for America.
I let Hillary be until recently, the continued harping Obama isn’t experienced enough. She should stop saying it.
The White House will be won from Republican hands. Bush can’t have lowest polls as President, Congress as whole not liked and GOP wins again.
Too much negativity has happened. GOP has take blame for Bush. He’s not a conservative financially. He’s not expert in world democracy. He’s waged war of choice and devalued the currency.
I want Obama to hire Republicans or independents in the White House. I want federal appointments based on talent and not political party.
I want the Red and Blue states arguing to stop.
Hillary will keep the political schism going. She has entrenched enemies on the other side because of Bill’s past.
I voted for Bill twice, don’t want him in the White House again.
One would THINK medved would understand here.
So little screen for “Redacted”
Sort of the same happened to Medved.
Medved was aired on KNSS, the local sewer of talk radio.
Medved was replaced by Howie Carr, who was in turn replaced by Sean Hannity.
Hannity, that’s big guns. Hannity is the construct of Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes.
I guess if you are a conservative, you just take being drowned out by money and power and call it all good.
Not only will I get the DVD for “Redacted”, after I watch it I will donate it to the public library as I do many films, books, etc.
Obama is too nice.
I don’t want nice with Republicans.
mrage is a closet Republican.
You’re too kind to Michael Medved, “J R.” –
It’s not that he “does not have an objective mind.” More like, he’s a goof.
Medved hated “Finding Nemo” because of the insolent son (a fish) saying to his father, “I hate you!” He thought it would be a bad influence on pre-teens.
did anyone see clay aiken?
True Monkeyhawk
Medved is in fact a kook.
I’ve not been to his website in some time. Years even. That is how relevant he is these days.
Last I was there he was depicted in cartoon form as a big headed, arms waving nut. And THAT was on his approval.
I certainly would not let him or Outlander or the New York Post tell me what I should or should not see.
JR,
The political schism isn’t good for Congress.
I don’t want to make nice with Brownback or Tiahart and would be upset if they took federal appointments if chosen by Obama.
I’m not talking about rubber stampers for Bush being in the Obama White House.
There is nothing wrong with some moderate Republicans. Long as they find fault in their own party.
Republicans don’t own the term conservative. Morally or financially.
I can like freedoms of choice and still be conservative on somethings.
It will be weird first time voting for Republican, I haven’t done it yet.
Gore was a better choice but I wasn’t thrilled with him. I hate the Electoral process.
I didn’t like John Kerry defending himself. His wife would have been a strange First Lady.
Both votes were against Bush actually! I wasn’t thrilled with the Dem nominations.
I want cross party appointments in the federal government.
I’m free to pick the best candidate regardless of party, some day.
In 2008, Dems have better chance.
What I was getting at is that an opinion is just that an opinion. I believe everyone has a right to an opinion whether you agree with them or not. I’ve seen a lot of opinions here that I don’t agree with but I don’t think they are any more or less valid than my own
I’ve got a dollar that says Chas can’t make a coherant connection.

Since Chas can’t, you’re welcome to try, Phantom. But you can’t either. Try. I dare ya.
Last Saturday, a sixteen year old teenager from Virginia was pulled over by police on I-95. It was 3 o’clock in the morning. While police investigated, he was handcuffed and locked in the front seat of a police car. Minutes later, the teenager escaped from the car and jumped over a concrete barrier on the side of the road. Unfortunately, the drop was62 feet and the boy drowned in the chilly waters of the river below.It’s a horrible, horrible tragedy, but I want you to listen to few facts about this case that didn’t make the headlines:
The original article said that the teenager had “left” school.Actually, he was expelled;
He was pulled over for driving 90 miles per hour. The speed limit was 55.
He failed three field sobriety tests;
He had no driver’s license;
He was on probation for riding in a stolen car five months earlier;
And, perhaps most importantly, the original article said that he immigrated from Honduras 16 months ago. The reality is that he was smuggled across the Mexican border. Border Patrol caught him and issued a summons, which he then ignored and flew to Miami.
The teenager was an illegal immigrant.
You know why that matters? Not because it makes his death any less tragic; but because it illustrates perfectly just how broken this systemof ours is. A couple of months ago immigration seemed like it the mostimportant issue facing our country. It was everywhere – tv; radio, newspapers…there was real passion. Illegal immigrants held protests; citizens held counter-protests, but now, at least according to the media– everything has apparently been solved.
That’s the way it feels, doesn’t it? The media works itself into a frenzy about an issue but when there are no more ratings left to milk, they drop it. Well maybe that’s how “experienced” professionals do it, but tonight let an inexperienced rodeo clown give you the Real Story.
The Real Story is that, ratings or not, I refuse to be a media-zombie and pretend like everything is sunshine and lollipops; because it is not. When it comes to stories like that Virginia teenager, people want to paint me and others as “emotionless hate-mongers” who don’t care about these poor, hardworking people. But how can YOU call yourself compassionate when you don’t want to get serious about fixing a system that allows this to happen? How are YOU compassionate for letting a family be smuggled here to work in dangerous conditions, with no benefits, for below a minimum wage? How are YOU the one who cares when you support a system that permits a teenager caught being smuggled across the border to stay here, only to be expelled from school and arrested all with virtually no consequences?
I do have compassion and that’s why we need to fix this problem. But the million dollar question is “how”? Well, so far, we’ve been given the 50 cent answer and it’s called “McCain/Kennedy Immigration Reform Bill.”
Come on, I’m all in favor of bipartisanship, but a solution from Ted Kennedy? Really? On an amnesty bill? The Real Story is that I believe John McCain has sealed his fate with this one. 90% of the American people believe that illegal immigration is a serious problem and he’s chosen to represent the Republican party by fining them $1,000, granting them amnesty and giving them a “path to citizenship” all while standing hand in hand in victory with Ted Kennedy and doing nothing to stop the influx of new offenders?
It’s like we’ve jumped ten steps ahead in solving the problem. No, no, it’s even worse than that…we’ve jumped ten steps ahead and we’re still IGNORING the problem. Imagine if your house caught fire and just when the fire department got there to put it out you started bringing in new furniture…
“Yeah, I’d like the couch to be over here so I can look out the window while I watch TV.”
“But sir – your house is still on fire! Literally, it’s burning right now.”
“Yeah, I get it, I get it. So what do you think, paint or wallpaper once we put it out?”
We’re talking about AMNESTY and CITIZENSHIP while we add a city of illegal aliens the size of Detroit to our country every single year!Put the fire out first!
Politicians talk tough, but when it really comes down to it, the 2,000 mile fence turned into 700 miles and now it’s probably going to turn out to be “virtual” ( if you’re not a politician, let me run that through my “bullcrap to English dictionary” and translate that for you: it means ZERO miles of actual fence!)
Earlier this year, before the election, when politicians still pretended to care about immigration, Senator Bill Frist said, quote, “A nation that can’t secure its borders can’t secure its destiny or administer its laws.” Well, our borders are certainly not yet secured and until they are, neither is this country’s destiny.—–
“I believe everyone has a right to an opinion whether you agree with them or not.”
Not here, Freebird. You haven’t been paying attention. Only opinions that agree with JR/Capn/JM/JM/JM/JM are acceptable. Any others are obviously the result of [insert favorite label here], and cannot be held by thinking persons.
Gosh – what were you thinking?
Late at night and without the principles present, GMC picks a fight.
SO prosecutorial of him, and weak.
Typical of one who gets to choose his battles. Not promising as to his character.
Gmc, Just because they think that way doesn’t mean I have to. I try to keep an open mind although I admit sometimes I am not very successful at it
JR,
I noticed that you are going to buy the movie Redacted.
Did you ever watch the movie Cinderella Man?
Ever open minded here Nathan.
Why don’t you give me a synopsis?
Obama is a BIGOT who panders. He is NO friend of the lgbt community. He is courting the evangelicals and throwing the lgbt community under the bus for their pitiful support. The Donnie McCloset thing, giving him a thirty minute platform to spout his bigotry and making him mistress of ceremonies was a slap in the face to ALL civil rights movements and it dihonored MLK and Corretta Scott King. (as does their wayward daughter bernice)
Obama would be as close to a theocrat as the dems have to offer. He is certainly the most blatent bigot among the dem candidates.
I guess it is a measure of how far the black community has come that they can look down at another group trying to climb the civil rights wall.. and pull up the ladder behind them in good conscience.
I guess everyone needs to feel superior to someone. Too bad the black evangelicals have picked the lgbt community to demonstrate that they are, in fact, no better than the KKK.
Obama is a dangerous and wishy washy guy to sell out one democratic constituency in order to pander to another group.
One of the fears about electing someone “different” whether it was John Kennedy as the first Catholic prez who MIGHT answer to the pope, or Obama who is CLEARLY under the thumb of the black evangelicals, is that they will put “their” people above others in terms of treatment and equality.
Fortunately, Kennedy did not. Unfortunately, with the Donnie McCloset case concert, Obama proved that he will.
He’ll put the wishes of his evangelical people above the entire LGBT community.
And he wont even kiss us before he does it. Of course, dinner first is out of the question.
KY Jelly anyone?
You would had to have seen it for my next question to have any real meaning.
Nevermind…
May tomorrow be a better day!
Good Night; Good Luck; and God Bless; whatever you conceive God to be!!
Blessings All!!
Frueliche Weinachten!!
Farmgirl,
Sheesh, there are choices other than Obama and labeling him with bigotry isn’t called for.
Obama is not under any thumb and he doesn’t owe Black Americans anything.
He’s a politician for sale like all the rest. Higher bidders get his attention. He doesn’t have a damning political background like some of the other choices.
Using bias charges on him is weak right now.
His lack of experience politically is good thing to me. He can still be molded by a constituency. I’m sure he accepts everybody.
Life is about choices. Does he have policies denying choice to the community your arguing about?
I hope campaigns in Kansas for a day at least. You can scream Bigot if you like at the pep rally. He should come to Wichita.
Your so adamant put your angst about him on a T-shirt and wear it proudly. Capital letters Obama is a Bigot.
If he wins the Democratic nomination your wanting any of the Republicans instead?
KFG,
Why do you ridicule those who disagree with you? Why are you so narrow minded? It is the same thing you chide the opposition for doing
I notice JR didn’t deal with substance either. Perhaps because there’s very little substance behind the self-rightous words.
Hmmmm?
Must speak to his “character,” or lack thereof.
Invite yerself to a fight Nathan wouldn’t finish there GMC?
Get over me. Then get over yourself.
