“Just yesterday he said WE wouldn't rest in our fight against terrorism and today he's playing golf. "guitargeorge1964

OMG!!!! The world goes on, time passes OMG!!!! NO!!!!

He's playing golf and you are doing what? You are sitting down typing trying to assail the President?”

“Armed with an ice pick and just looking for somebody to stab with it, b-a-a-d girl. No one carries an ice pick around, they're too dangerous and can stab you when you're reaching around in your purse. Knowing this, she made a decision that she would be USING it, so she needed to carry it.
This is thee perfect example of what we are cultivating and encouraging with our Culture of Violence.
TV has a steady and growing schedule of violence, Prison Shows, Cops shows, Fight Shows, Crime Scene Shows, FBI profiling , Military Justice, Law & Order, Crime News............Then we have some Hospital shows with injustices and pain and tragedy and angst.
The programming leaves our young in a pained position, they are going to lash out. We're all in a pained position from this programming of and by our media. It's criminal.
WE have to stop this violent culture in its tracks!”

“They should have been turned loose in the Senate.”

“I think Rachel Maddow is having an effect across the board with a lot of "news casters/commentators". Watching her develop the facts of the story and with follow-up that is clarifying, she is setting an example for all the lazy gossipy mud slingers. She is taking on opponents with vigor and without shouting them down or cutting their mics.
Just like Obama is setting an example of civility that Billo couldn't help but be affected by, we are on a new level that is more American and realistic. Change we can believe in, every now and then it shows its little head.”

“It has looked like O"Reilly has decided to lean a little to the left sometimes and to soften his volume. They know the right wing is shrinking and disintegrating and they still want viewers...where can they go but left?
Bill quoting all the commenters on his blog that tell him he's a tool was easy, he's read it so often. He looks and acts tired, I wouldn't be surprised if he retired soon.”

“Sadly, the most obnoxious of them, Vicki, is doing great... but hey she is in the always growing Insurance Industry, the Industry that has half of America down and out. She is losing it in all directions, next thing you know she will be in an ambulance being hauled off to a psyche ward.
Wellll, I bet I could live on what they pay them, but I'm frugal. If they pay them so little, what is the incentive to being on the show? Do people really just want to be on TV no matter what they expose of themselves? Yuck.
Slade has appeared on that "Housewives.." show longer than most of the housewives, by now he should have his own show. He does look better with hair and a beard, will it get him a job?
Apparently the Gosselins had a much better deal, they were able to live on it and buy a better life...for a while.”

“Oh, sacrificial me, I quit my vacation because my fellow travelers were bothered! See, I do evvreetheen for others and all I get are insults, feel sorry for me, uhhhhhh.

Her fellow travelers were seen gathering in circles, all holding something red in their hands, oh no tomatoes, runnnnnn.”

“Well, there you have it. A "match" for Sarah Palin.
What a ticket, eh? Palin-Traficant.
And Traficant already has his own built-in "bumpit" so Sarah won't have to share.
He might run for President! We'd be surprised what a national following he has. I'm sure that's true.
What is the poor soul going to do for a living? Did he sock away enough ill-gottens to last the rest of his life? Probably.”

“The ONLY insurance we should be "mandated" to buy has to be the public option, non-profit. The tax payer money should only be used for public option and NOT private insurance.
The middle man makes all the money and we have to remove the middle man.
I've heard nothing about a national program that covers catastrophic expenses once you've reached a certain limit.
And...they have NOT removed the anti-trust exemption from the Insurance cos!!!!!! ferchrissakes
So, we are left with co-pays, high premiums, limits and continued bankruptcies due to medical costs. What good is this? I'm appalled.
Keith is right, NOT health, NOT care and NOT reform.”

“Howard Dean has the kind of spine I'd like to see in all of our Dems. One of these days we will have a bunch like Dean, Saunders and Kucinich that tell it like it is. Where are the clone experts? Ahhh, if only....
Aren't there some thirty-somethings willing to enter politics. eHarmony could match up a nice crop with Sauders et al and in no time we'd have candidates we can support. They ARE out there, we have to bring them out.
We can rail against the prez, the dems, the reps all we want, but until WE do something, WE aren't going to see the change we need. The President is only One, we are millions, we have to push.

It looks like outright fraud in congress, where the implied contract the State has with its elected representatives has been broken repeatedly. They are working AGAINST their citizens, while living large ON the citizens.
The State should be demanding recall and re-appointment/election of a representative that will do the Peoples' bidding. Cities and communities should be growing spines too...it isn't all in Washington.”

“Venus and Serena don't fit your profile : "...produce these kinds of adults with no control."

These women have been on the circuit behaving extremely well for over a decade. # 1 twice, Serena had an anger fit once that you saw. It cost her $87,000. Other than that, they have always been in control of themselves while enduring much unfairness. Even that fit, at that time was totally understandable, it was Match Point...a foot fault that is almost NEVER called. The line judge was suspect in that call at that time.
Yes, their parents had income from them in the end, but they did raise them, educated them, trained them and made champions out of them. That is worth a lot and they will tell you that.”

“There always needs to be a punning away of the riffraff and drags of society. " requestanothername

Well genius, PUN away those DRAGS of society...we're waiting.”

“"I want someone to witness my life?" Now that is some selfless love. And He's complaining that She may only be interested in his fame? Poooor Tiger. He seems only interested in being famous himself, so what's the problem? "After whoring around the country for years, searching high and low and lower, I've finally found someone I could connect with...via text and email."
How many of those women got the same email? Hide the blind copy, make it quick, send to all.
Well Tige, we are ALLLLLL witnessing your life now, do you feel better? What a jerk.
If his wife comes back to him, it will be the end of her sanity and any self respect. She has a strong family, I don't think they will let her make this huge mistake, they have to be telling her to stand up and be strong.”

“Everything I read on this case painted a picture of a prosecutor that was fantasizing about sex and violence and got to play it all out in court to satisfy his own salaciousness. He has a super bad history of false accusations and arrests. He used his power to intimidate anyone he chose to. He sounds completely off the wall...the story he told of this crime was so off the wall it didn't even make sense.
The knife wasn't even the murder weapon, the DNA on it was too small to really identify anyone.
Knox could have been an air head or foxy - whatever, but she didn't have a motive for murder. They already have the real murderer in jail.
If Italy has to make some statement to the US for their war crimes, it is understandable, but Knox is an unfortunate girl in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

“Oh yuck, bus bathroom stinks info...We're holding it all day? Wow. All the while following the President? The cesspool is never-ending in Washington...even on the bus it stinks to high heaven.
Helluva job, who wouldn't be proud of their child, sent to the school of Journalism at great financial sacrifice and deep hopes, to read the sterling accounts of their "graduate" now in this high-honorable job at the White House?
That must be what raising a generation of entitled children bought us, we wuz robbed.
Thanks Matt, that was a good write-up. I'll bet you could write till the end of time the examples of slip-shod-slanted supposed non-ideological news releases.”

“...meant " to cheat on their taxes" not cheap on their taxes”

“This will have the right wingers going nutsier. Glenn Beck will do a red faced rant and some crying, aided by his vicks on the eyelids trick that helps those tears ooze for the cameras - sniff sniff, ca$h a check. Sarah will hold forth on Facebook with some assigned slogans.
I say, up Acorn's funding to do the jobs that we need so badly RIGHT NOW. Enough with the bad camera pimp/prostitute act and on with registering voters among the poor and disenfranchised. More outreach to families in the communities.
I could care less if they advised a phony pimp to cheap on his phony taxes...AS IF that was gonna cost anyone anything.
I thought the "advisers" were being very patient and gentle with 2 very obviously misguided punks playing as if they were...anyone.
They should have been fined for wasting the time of some of our most dedicated help-mates.
They should be sued for fraud for trying to bring down a legitimate organization that does necessary work for very low pay at that.
Go Acorn.”

“Halliburton headquartered in Dubai, hmmm, don't they need the dickless over there about now?
Couldn't he go down with some ship ferchrissakes? How many lives does that pathetic anti-American have anyway?
Don't suppose Citi has any exposure in Dubai's mess? They're all probably all set up with "shorts" and "puts" to clean up on their own failure, after all, that's what the big boys do.
Tax speculators now.”

“Every time I see pictures of hastily dredged islands for sale, the new world's tallest building near done and read of Dubai's fantastical development etc the only thing that comes to mind is ENRON. It's Enron all over again, balloon, balloon, balloon, scam, scam, lie, lie, lie and POOF.
To top it off, they tempted fate with the "tallest building"...there is some tale of woe hitting each country right after they built the "tallest."
But, as usual with the ruling elite, who can say this wasn't an orchestrated step of their plan? Maybe the Human Rights Watch is on the verge of exposing their slave labor and the treatment of their slaves during their wage-free building boom? Not such good publicity.
This is a headline grabber, it will push everything else off the front page. This is great cover...but there is a lot to "cover" and the truth will out. How convenient for the Sheik to fire the pros and hire his family!
They'll probably have to turn off the refrigeration of their indoor ski course, the snow will melt and run through the city, wash away their fake islands and drown them all.
Dubai -- Dubi ous,”

“O"Reilly has been slipping a lot lately, he just doesn't have it in him anymore, no gas left in his tank. Phew, it took long enough. He is trying all sorts of different stands to see if anything sticks, so far nada.
What Hannity lacks in brains in that frontal lobe, he makes up for with Red Bullsh*t. Loud staccato repetitions with a twang of a broken guitar string thrown in to shake your soul and imprint his talking oinks. When he runs out of uppers and Karma visits his vocal chords, Sarah will try out for a 2 week run and fail spectacularly...then what will Murdock do?
Like one commenter said, it's like the difference between 2 STD's.”

“I give thanks.”

“...and it must have been a real zinger when Katie won an award for the revealing interview of Sarah Palin that brought the party down.
Sarah wants an award. All that pageant walkin practice doesn't come free you know...come on.”

“Everyone, don't forget to go to "Mudflats" and read the hilarious review of Sarah's book chapters. It is so funny, the gal knows Sarah too well.”

“Ahah, Sarah did finally answer the question of what she reads, on O"Reilly or Hannity.
"I read Newsmax (cause they have my book on sale for $4.97) The Frontiersman, some Wasilla outdoorsman mag. and the Wall Street Journal. (cause Rupert Murdock is bank-rolling my parade)
She was quite pleased with her gotcha - ahem - answer, like "so there, na na."
She just can't shake that damn Couric interview, no matter how she tries to parse it, she isn't making any headway.
This latest gotcha idea of interviewing Katie about Alaska would leave Sarah up all night trying to read enough about Alaska so she could even ask a question. Well she knows about AK by osmosis, just because she lives there, you buffoons...sheeeet, she can touch it from her porch ferchrissakes!!
Wouldn't you love to see the list of questions she would compile "to trip up that perky pest"?
"What was my nick name in Bible school?"
"How far north have I been ?"
"How much do I love AK?"
"Why don't more people come to see me in AK?"
"Can you even find where I live in AK on the map?"”

“Oh groan, it's a turn off to see the anchor lady acting like a wannabe-sex-pot. AS IF that is some claim to fame in 2009.”
