C'mon Monday! Let's find a way to give some traction to Jawa today!

Let's let Barry back up what he said about "firing" anyone involved with such a smear. Let's get that "fired" person on the air to tell about where their orders came from.

An open thread? And me with nothing to discuss

Except for this:

Visit the O'Grady/Brown memorial website.

These two police officers were murdered by close friends of Bill Ayers after an armoured truck robbery in Nyack, N.Y. back in 1981. How close? Not just 'fleeting acquaintences from the Weathermen Days'. More like 'Ayers Raised Their Infant Son To The Red Diaper Babay He Is Today', complete with a Rhodes scholarship and fawning NYT and PBS articles about him.

Hey there Yoch!

re: #9 Killian Bundy

Funny that you mention "The Common Man". Yesterday saw an article about the melamine poisoning in China. Official said something to the tune of, "We must make sure that the "common people" can eat with confidence."

Can you imagine the reaction from the American Public if someone called them "common people"? That is why they are known as the "American Public".

Just words.

Read it all.

Good morning,
Here is beverage spewing information to start the day with. McCain is thinking of putting Coumo, one of the people who helped create the sub-prime disaster under Clinton, in charge of the cleanup.

Some asshole is on Fox spewing a trillion here and an trillion here.

It hass to be done, our national debt is already almost ten trillion

/ let's get real

Don't know if this one merits posting but some of my conservative friends got this in their inbox this morning , did anyone else get it? "this was sent to me today"give me your reactions

The following is from a source that has been correct on wild rumors like this on 4 out of 7 occasions.

On or about October 5th, Biden will excuse himself from the ticket, citing "health problems", and he will be replaced

to as many blog sites and personal email lists as is possible. I have already seen a few short blurbs about this. The "health problem" cited in those articles was an aneurysm. Probably many of you have heard the same rumblings.

However, at this point, with this information from the DNC, it looks like this Obama strategy will be a go. Therefore, it seems that the best strategy is to get out in front of thi s Obama maneuver, spell it out in detail, and thereby expose it for the grand manipulation that it is.

So, let's start mixing this one up and cut the Obamites off at the pass. Send this information out to as many people as you can and post it on every website and blog that you can access.

Editor's Note: I've heard this from several sources. Biden is a loose cannon and an amazingly poor choice for VP. Hussein's hatred for Hillary will be trumped by his sponsor's (Soros and gang) rabid desire to hijack America.

re: #50 obageegee

"Correct on 4 out of 7" is exactly the same odds that you get flipping a coin. No big deal. Re Biden's aneurisms, he has had two brain aneurisms repaired. Which makes him a pretty good candidate for a third.

I would be very surprised if Hillary was fool enough to pick up Barry's marbles this late in the game. And notice the desertion now of a number of her biggest high profile supporters.

re: #50 obageegee

In the first place, I can't imagine Obama doing this. Even less so on October 5th, after the one and only VP debate on the second, IIRC.

Yippee! An early Monday morning thread. Great advice, too. I have a two-and-a-half year old son. He is a very wise little boychik.

re: #22 NC State of Mind

This needs to be more widely publicized. Did Obama do a background check on his candidate?

re: #56 lifeofthemind

This needs to be more widely publicized. Did Obama do a background check on his candidate?

I have thought right along that Biden was not Barry's first choice - more like the only one who would take the job.

re: #48 lifeofthemind

Well, he was throwing out Bloomberg's name as a possible leader in his financial resolution task force this morning, as well. Along with Mitt Romney and Warren Buffett. I'm not going to hold my breath for any of it. But I have to hand it to McCain for his love of rolling the ol' hand grenade across the table.

re: #48 lifeofthemind

Good morning,
Here is beverage spewing information to start the day with. McCain is thinking of putting Coumo, one of the people who helped create the sub-prime disaster under Clinton, in charge of the cleanup.

I heard that. McCain always referred to the Democrats as "My Dear Friends." Now that he is acting somewhat like a Republican, they are mauling him & yet he talks about appointing a Dem.

The money people did it, Soros & that crowd. Could there be a more self-loathing Jew?

Two grenades found at JetBlue Terminal at JFK

re: #61 reine.de.tout

Mornin' Reine...

From the days of FDR, the vast majority of American Jews have identified with the Democratic Party almost if it were their religion. This included most especially secular Jews like me whose blasé attitude toward their faith and toward religious observance in general made such a replacement all the more important emotionally. This same Jewish majority also identified with the cause of social justice and, as Barack Obama among many others has noted, were some of the most active participants in the civil rights movement of the Fifties and Sixties. That was all how it should have been and was a perfectly logical and praiseworthy epoch in the development of our country.

Hello – those days are over! The events leading up to Monday’s anti-Ahmadinejad demonstration by Jewish organizations at the UN put the final nail in an already long-moldering coffin. Jews should no longer align themselves with the Democratic Party any more than they should align with the Republicans. They should act and think for themselves, devoid of ideological or partisan bias. They should first be Americans, not Democratic Party Americans.

The reasons for this are many, but paramount among them is that being hostage to one political party is tantamount to giving up your freedom and relinquishing your ability to confront reality and act in your own interest, not to mention the interest of others. Many Jewish Americans still do this for reasons that are at best sentimental and nostalgic, and at worst self-destructive. But a tipping point may be approaching. The virtual night of the long knives played out between the Democratic Party and various Jewish organizations surrounding the Iran demonstration, including allegations that party operatives were threatening the loss of tax exempt status over Sarah Palin’s appearance, with more unpleasant revelations undoubtedly to come, is obviously causing people to reconsider this allegiance to the Democratic Party that approaches fealty.

I urge my fellow Jews to keep thinking about this and not to retreat into the cocoon-like safety of an outmoded tradition. Change is difficult. But remember that Hillary Clinton – that paragon of the Democratic Party, a woman who calls herself a “progressive” (oh, desecration of the English language!) – was willing to forego the protest of the man who is arguably the most significant enemy of the Jews since Hitler for partisan and (most likely) personal pique reasons. How morally repellent is that!

And then Joseph Biden told us he was busy–too busy to protest a nuclear-armed madman who fervently believes that his mysterious Twelfth Imam (Mahdi) is destined to unite a chaotic globe under Allah. (And don’t tell me that evangelicals believe similar things. If you think there is an equation between evangelicals and Khomeinist Islamists, you need a cold bath.)

No, those Democrats thought of themselves and their party first, the citizens of this country and the world later. When Republicans behave in a similar reprehensible manner, we should condemn them with all ferocity. But fellow Jews, stop being slaves to the Democratic Party. End this illicit love affair – not just for your own good, but for the good of humanity.

Good morning LGF friends.

re: #67 yochanan

I know part of this is quotes from an article I read yesterday . . . . . which also stated as I recall that "most US Jews today are descendants of Jews escaping the Holocaust who were allowed into the US by FDR."

Which surely made me wonder who wrote the article, since neither FDR nor anyone else allowed any great influx of Jews into the US either prior to or during WWII. We did, in fact, turn at least one boat away.

The odds of a Morgan Stanley - Wachovia merger deal just got a lot longer, because of this:

Goldman, Morgan to become holding companies
Companies get access to Fed lending in exchange for oversight

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- In yet another extraordinary development for Wall Street, the Federal Reserve said late Sunday night that venerable investment banks Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley will become bank holding companies, subjecting themselves to stricter federal oversight.

The main motivation for a broker to merge with a bank was to have direct access to capital during tight times like this. But by becoming a bank holding company, Goldman and Morgan can walk up to the discount window and borrow all they need themselves.

Your QB can't find his secondary receivers yet, the defenses have figured that out, so they are just taking Moss out of the play so the passing game is stymied.

But in a few games he should get the hang of it, so keep hope. At least you guys have professional receivers who can. like catch the ball and stuff.

Not like my Bears would specialize in getting slow footed receivers who can not catch the ball.

re: #125 loppyd

I have long theorized that the Bears draft from a different pool of players than other teams. We get the pool of slow footed, stone fingered, and blind players.

Other teams get to draft from the pool that has quick players who can run into the end zone real fast carrying the football.

We have to be able to draft from that pool of players.

re: #110 ggt

Much more likely it's to throw the 0ther side off their stride for a step or two. And to force Cuomo and Bloomberg to spend a little political capital in issuing denials and no-thank-yous. But it's worth noting that the McCain campaign has a resolution strategy (whether it stinks or not) in the works, while 0bama, in the week that's supposed to be his "Florida Retiree Blitz," just has more whining and scary booga-booga stories.

The offensive line turned in a miserable performance - he got sacked 4 times for Pete's sake!

Well, he's standing there waiting for his primary receiver to get open. Unfortunately, cause the defense has figured that out, the primary is triple covered.

So the defensive line smells blood and goes all out to nail him and he's getting killed back there.

He has to look off the primary receiver.

re: #135 loppyd

Yes, Da Bears do need some good receivers.

They don't have a #1 receiver.

The don't even have a #2 receiver.

They have a bunch of #3's.

That's like having a baseball team of all 1st basemen.

re: #135 loppyd

By the way, Griesie passed 67 times yesterday and the Bears never came close to him.

Like I say, I'm trying to figure out where the Bears will get another win this year and I'm coming up empty.

re: #67 yochanan

One explanation for many Jews hating any party consider right wing is the almost universal labeling of National Socialism as right wing.

In part this took place as it would have been more difficult to to unleash the necessary commitment to destroy Nazism if the system was viewed as similar to the Soviet Union.

At the very least it would have interfered with fullly supporting our ally the Soviets.

It should be noted that until Germany attacked Russia, Stalin was a friend of Hitler and the U.S. communist party opposed any actions against Germany.

Once Russia was attacked the communist turned against the the Nazis.

If the Nazis were foes of the communist or the left, then other who opposed communism must be similar to Hitler and the Nazis.

Republicans are on the right of the political spectrum. Some have been painted as far right.

The left has been very astute in propagating this concept and I believe their success in doing so accounts for the loyalty of Jews to the Democrat party.

re: #152 loppyd

If you had asked me that before this weekend I would have said Miami was a safe bet.

The league now has tape on your QB and they have fiagured out his tendancies.

It took me about 2 series of watching him play to figure out that he is locking into the primary receiver, and I'm not a profession coordinator. He has got to learn to go through hos progression on pass plays or you can forget it. And without that, you can forget about play action working too.

Great idea. I'll contribute a few recipes. I love the idea!

Greets and saluts from the NYC metro area. There's a real important story in the NY Sun today that merits attention about how al Qaeda's latest message appears to be a signal to carry out further attacks. It also notes that the Marriott bombing in Islamabad may have been a decapitation strike against the Pakistani bombing - that President Zardari was scheduled to attend Iftar at the Marriott later that evening.

That's a situation I had surmised when the attacks occurred, and suggests that the Pakistani government is seriously compromised by the Islamists and al Qaeda/Taliban elements.

The Bears took the ball away form the Buc's 4 times yesterday and still lost.

Last week they scored on a blocked punt, and still lost.

They have the Eagles coming in this weekend, who will absolutely destroy the Bears.

I'm looking at next years draft already.

What slow footed, stone handed, blind receiver can we draft early next year? Or a short QB with happy feet. Or a running back who hates to carry the ball. Or an offensive lineman with a bad knee. Maybe we can find a punter with a bad back and draft him in the first round.

Palin in undelivered speech for UN protest: Ahmadinejad dreams of Final Solution

By Natasha Mozgovaya, Haaretz Correspondent

Tags: Ahmadinejad, Clinton, Palin

In the speech which Republican Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin was to have delivered at a Monday rally protesting the UN appearance of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, she was to have said that the Iranian president "dreams of being an agent in a 'Final Solution' - the elimination of the Jewish people."

Having a QB who can calmly go through his 3 receiving options on pass plays is invaluable.

Another standout has Patton’s ghost showing Malone a modern-day plantation full of happy cotton pickers who thank Malone for being such a humane slave owner. Malone staggers at the sight only to learn that this is his plantation and these are his slaves — thanks to anti-war sentiment that prevented the Civil War.

In a line that filmmakers are still debating whether to cut, a smiling Gary Coleman finishes polishing a car and tosses his rag to someone: “Hey, Barack!”

I heard that Biden's crowd was 2000 not 20000. That 60,000 crowd that Palin drew in Florida is just a hair shy of the stadium crowd Obama drew in Oregon with the promise of a free concert by the marxist "band" the Decembrists.

Heard the "Go, go Johnnie (McCain)" song this morning on radio. Great way to start the day!

Via Politico:

McCain closes huge gap on key question for women

Since picking Sarah Palin as his running mate, John McCain has obliterated what had been a 34-percentage-point deficit in a poll of likely women voters on the question of which candidate has a “better understanding of women and what is important” to them.

The two are now effectively tied, with McCain's 44 to 42 percentage lead within the margin of error of the most recent poll conducted by pollsters Kellyanne Conway and Celinda Lake for Lifetime Television. In Lifetime's July poll, women preferred Barack Obama on the same question by nearly three-to-one— 52 to 18 percent.

Email rumor going around that Obama is going to announce around Oct. 5 that Biden is leaving due to health problems and Hillary is stepping in.

Not happening.

The biggest lie the Western left has promoted since 9-11 is that there is no one war with Islamo-fascism. Al Qaeda knows the war exists. Iranian mullahs & their proxies Hamas & Hezbollah know there is a war. But the Western intelligentsia refuses to acknowledge it. The most they will concede is that there is a good war against bad guys in Afghanistan, (although many will call that a bad war too) and the distraction of a bad war in Iraq. They will insist there is a "Israeli/Palestinian conflict" but will ignore the centrality of that particular front in the war between Islamo-fascism & the West. They refuse to accept the interconnection of all these separate fronts.

Eventually the sting of Al Qaeda’s defeat in Iraq will be forgotten; their boldness will return and they will reconstitute in a place which America will have no specific reason to lean on. And if from that place another 9/11 attack is mounted Robert Fisk may be among the first to say that ‘it was all our fault’. In a sense he will be right even had he the wit to realize he was pointing at a mirror which our public intellectuals have shattered into parts. The myriad reflections in that crazed reflection don’t represent different things. They represent the same confused Western society attempting to see itself through a kaleidoscope of lies.
