Bill and Hillary Clinton to Drop Ball on New Year's, Assuming They Can Contain Their Unquenchable Sexual Passion for Each Other For Ten Minutes

Bloomberg announced the selection on Tuesday morning.

"I can't think of anyone I would rather stand at the crossroads of the world at the beginning of this new year than Bill and Hillary Clinton," Bloomberg said. "Both together and as individuals, Senator and President Clinton have brought hope and opportunity to New York, to the nation, and to the world."

I am all done with my end of year tax accounting.
The only thing different that I am going to do in 2009 is take the money that I would have otherwise put in my IRA and I am going to whizz it away. If I gave it to my money managers, they would whizz it away, judging by the present value of all the tens of thousands of dollars I have been giving them since 1990.

So, the only difference seems to be who does the whizzing. I would rather that be me, not them.

Jordan's queen donates blood for Gaza victims

AMMAN (AFP) — Jordan's Queen Rania donated blood on Tuesday for Palestinians in the battered Gaza Strip, where more than 350 people have been killed in a deadly four-day Israeli aerial bombardment.

"Queen Rania visited the Al-Hussein Medical Centre today to take part in a nationwide campaign to donate blood and support the citizens of Gaza," her office said in a statement.

In an article published in local newspapers, Rania, herself of Palestinian origin, also called on Jordanians to help ease the suffering.

"To be limited to expressing sympathies with the people of Gaza is shameful because they don't need to be felt sorry for, they need us to act and help, and I know that we can do more," wrote the queen.

Democratic Senators suffer self-inflicted race card wound following Blago's appointment choice:

[Link: www.breitbart.com...]

Senate leaders, scattered for the holidays, immediately convened a conference call to respond to what they saw as a sticky situation. Some involved in the call were wary of being seen as denying a black man a seat in a chamber where there are no blacks, according to two officials knowledgeable about the talks who requested anonymity in order to speak freely.

That sensitivity is why the statement includes a section explicitly saying that any "shadow" of impropriety or the Democrats' refusal to seat Burris was a reflection on Blagojevich, not Burris.

Curse you Blago, you wily genius! I guess we should have been grateful he didn't nominate a bi-polar gay Chinese-Moldavian monopalegic, 'cause then the Dems would have had no choice but to make him Secretary of State.

Blagojevich snubs Senate, taps Burris for seat

That point was driven home at the news conference by Democratic U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush [Black Panther] of Chicago, who said it's a matter of national importance that an African-American replace Obama in the Senate.

"Let me just remind you that there presently is no African-American in the Senate...this is just not a state of Illinois matter," Rush said.

"I would ask you to not hang or lynch the appointee as you try to castigate the appointer," Rush also said. "Roland Burris is worthy."

Senate Dems say they won't seat Obama replacement

Senate Democrats said Tuesday they would refuse to seat the man Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich has picked to succeed President-elect Barack Obama, saying that the taint of scandal would follow the new senator to Washington.

"Anyone appointed by Gov. Blagojevich cannot be an effective representative of the people of Illinois and, as we have said, will not be seated by the Democratic Caucus," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada and his deputy, Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, said in a statement.

"The world has never had a good definition of the word "liberty". The American people, just now, are much in want of one. We all declare for liberty. But in using the same word, we do not all mean the same thing.

What constitutes the bulwark of our liberty and independence? It is not our frowning embattlements, our bristling sea coasts. These are not our reliance against tyranny.

Our reliance is in the love of liberty, which God has planted in our bosoms. Our defense is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men, in all lands everywhere. Destroy this spirit, and you have planted the seeds of despotism around your own doors."

(Amen.)

re: #66 JacksonTn

My husband just looked at the tape at the bank of the nice lovely couple who stole my new checks from my locked mailbox in the city and cleaned out my new business account ...I cannot believe the bank did not check them out more before they let them cash the checks ...thankfully I had only deposited 10K in it but I am so sick of people stealing ...

I wish that if and when they are found ...the court would let their sentence be a whole summer of working at my farms ...I have a few real nice "chores" for them ...why can't people just get off their ass and work an honest days work and stop taking from others ...geez Michelle already wants more of my pie ...I don't need anybody else taking a slice ...

Wow! How did they get into your locked mailbox? That is just awful...our whole country seems to into thievery, from Wall Street to your street.

Howdy, gang. Beenn busy trying to do some work on holiday decorations I should've done earlier but couldn't because of jury duty. They weren't out this year, but next year, the hedges and all should be pretty durn nice!

It's an odd feeling, though, working on decorations while listening to news from Israel. Since I can't be over there to help, I'm sending the IDF my best wishes and prayers, hoping they wouldn't object to such from a pagan if they knew. And if any of our Jewish members say it would be objectionable, I'll quit the prayers and sitck to the well-wishing.

Arab outrage over Gaza carnage targets Egypt

In an unusually vocal criticism of Hamas by an Egyptian official, Abdullah Kamal, a member of Egypt's ruling party, denounced the group as a pawn of Iran, saying Iran and Syria seek to "announce Iran as the leader of the region through its militias, whether Hezbollah or Hamas."

This will be interesting.

my guess is that Fatah will provide the support to the advancing IDF... not in terms of fighting with them - but more useful stuff... like on the ground situational intelligence.

which is enormously useful in urban combat.

same kind of thing happened loads of times in Iraq - the U.S. army simply wouldnt have suceeded without the "Awakening" movement , who supplied urban intelligence so that U.S. forces were able to precisely target the bad guys.

the Gaza attack will be more like the "surge" , than the Hez war... and Fatah are a crucial part of it.

I wish that if and when they are found ...the court would let their sentence be a whole summer of working at my farms ...I have a few real nice "chores" for them ...why can't people just get off their ass and work an honest days work and stop taking from others ...geez Michelle already wants more of my pie ...I don't need anybody else taking a slice ...

When that happened to me, the bank froze the account, reviewed those charges, and reversed them. I didn't lose anything except some time.

357 buzzdroid  Tue, Dec 30, 2008 2:25:50pm

also - note just how quiet the Fatah controlled west bank is.

and also note that Fatah forces actually fired live rounds at a pro-Hamas demonstration there the other day - wounding 6 of them.

If Abbas was pro-Hamas, all he would have to do is snap his fingers and Israel would be having a two-front war now. That just isnt happening.

I also would guess that the Iraqi government are involved - as Fatah is primarily a Pan-Arab Nationalist organisation, with ties to the Baath Party.

Since the insane policy of "de-baathification" has been reversed as part of the surge strategy, i would not be in the least surprised if the Baathists in Iraq have been advising Fatah on strategy in order to combat the Iranian influence in Gaza.

By Fatah NOT resorting to violence against Israel augurs well for the future - i think we're on the cusp of a solid peace agreement. Only Hamas is in the way of that.

There will also be demonstrations outside of Israeli embassy buildings and consulates in many cities.

like - are there Jewish Zionists walking around Gaza with laser pointers to guide the F-16s in?

i mean - seriously - these moonbats cant figure it out for themselves.

its becoming bloody obvious to me that its PALESTINIANS who are helping the IAF... in order to get rid of the nightmare of Hamas.

Not necessarily. There are ways they could have found them without help.

Illinois' Burris Accused of Race Baiting

Burris, the only black candidate in the Democratic field of four, issued a cryptic response to reports that he told an African-American community group that his opponents are "non-qualified white boys."

The allegations stem from a videotape of Burris that aired on a cable-TV community access channel and the local ABC affiliate in Chicago. Both stations dubbed out the words "white boys."

"I have no factual information that I even said this," Burris said Wednesday. "If I've offended my colleagues, then I apologize to my colleagues. I don't even know whether or not I said it. You have to know the context in which it was said. You're not going to get me to speculate."

I think the Israeli Navy, had it wanted to actually fire on the ill-conceived mission of mercy aiding enemy combatants ship, would have hit it with each shot, assuming there were shots.

They were incommunicado in a combat zone. They were not giving any recognizable distress signals. Therefore they were a legitimate target according to international law.

They were aiding a non-neutral power at war. They were creating propaganda. Therefore they were a legitimate target according to international law.

the targetting has been so precise and so wide ranging... plus when you throw in Fatah wanting revenge on Hamas, then its obvious that theres some sort of Palestinian help going on.

Press Briefing by Deputy Press Secretary Gordon Johndroe


MR. JOHNDROE: Okay, good afternoon. This morning President Bush received his daily intelligence briefing. He then met via secure video with his senior advisors to discuss the latest developments regarding the situation in the Middle East.

Also this morning President Bush called Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to thank him for his leadership and for the positive role that Egypt is playing in the current crisis.

The President also called Palestinian Authority President Abbas and Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Fayyad. President Bush and the two Palestinian leaders discussed their efforts for a sustainable ceasefire. They agreed that for any ceasefire to be effective, it must be respected, particularly by Hamas.

...

We have got to get a commitment from Hamas that they would respect any ceasefire and make it lasting and durable. And so until we can get that assurance -- not the United States, but until Israel can get that assurance from Hamas -- then we're not going to have a ceasefire that is worth the paper it's written on.

Sen. Cornyn says Senate shouldn't seat Franken

Senate Republican campaign chief John Cornyn (Texas) said Tuesday the Senate shouldn't seat Democrat Al Franken, who leads GOP Sen. Norm Coleman (Minn.) in a hotly contested recount.

“Al Franken is falsely declaring victory based on an artificial lead created on the back of the double counting of ballots,” Cornyn said in a statement. The chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee also accused Democrats of “creating additional chaos and disorder” during the recount.

“Minnesotans will not accept a recount in which some votes are counted twice, and I expect the Senate would have a problem seating a candidate who has not duly won an election,” the Texas Republican concluded.

Overall, it's the way they present their opinions as truth, as facts. When I say "Caroline Kennedy is not qualified to be a US Senator, at least not right now," I am fully aware that is my opinion.

Taking cover on Sderot front line

The alarm goes and suddenly the whole street is moving in the same direction - to the bomb shelter.

It is by now a well-practised routine for the residents of Sderot. It has to be.

There can be as little as 15 seconds warning of an incoming rocket fired from Gaza.

We were eating in a cafe when one of the day's many sirens sounded.

The nearest shelter happened to be just across the road, a tiny, squat concrete building which looked like a public convenience. We crowded in as another missile landed.

'Long overdue war'

"Now you can see what life is like for us here," said Yakov Shoshani, raising his voice to make himself heard over the sound of a loud crump.

Angrily wagging his finger while those around him nodded in agreement, he went on: "I want all the citizens of England to understand us - and to understand what our government is doing in Gaza against terror."

Mr Shoshani repeated a figure you hear all the time now from Israeli spokesmen: that 6,000 rockets and mortars had fallen on the southern Israeli towns near Gaza since 2000.

So residents of Sderot feel that the air war against Hamas is long overdue. They came out to applaud and honk car horns when the F-16s returned from their first bombing run over Gaza on Saturday.

They still fervently support the air campaign even though, at the moment, it means more missiles falling on their town.

Yeah, the owner seems to have backed himself into a rhetorical corner on that. Personally, not being a cowboy fan, I hope they keep him and I hope they sign a few more ex-cons to make the circus complete. But the smart thing to do would be to let Philips go and clean house of all the egos to restart.

Bear in mind, they are opening a new $billion dollar monstrousity next year. Right in the middle of a recesssion. The fans want change. If Jones could deliver shanahan, it might make the financing of the new stadium easier. Money talks.

someone else notices bbc bias against israel... no surprises there so

[Link: biased-bbc.blogspot.com...]

"diary of a madman"

quote:
It is a diary of Hatem Shurrab who is an aid worker in Gaza with the British-based "charity" Islamic Relief Worldwide. Yes, you heard that right.

In this third tear-jerking instalment of his diary, Hatem writes about the psychological impact of Israel's air strikes on Gaza's children. In fact all Hatem does is spout pro-Palestinian propaganda even sharing with us the shocking news that the brother of one of his work colleagues has been killed in an Israeli attack.

Then again, quite a few Hamas terrorists have been killed in Israeli attacks, haven't they, Hatem?

Interesting that Islamic Relief manages to get its views embedded into the main BBC site - I can't seem to find a balancing series of opinions from an Israeli point of view. Can you?

The bias in the BBC output at the moment is shocking - every bit as as bad as it was when Hezbollah fought Israel back in 2006. It seems that the hatred of Israel runs deep in the BBC and such profound endemic anti-Semitism is reason enough to pull the license tax.

531 redc1c4  Tue, Dec 30, 2008 2:59:29pm

this'll bring a tear to your eye:

Dear MoveOn member,

You've probably heard about how Wall Street financier Bernard Madoff scammed investors out of at least $50 billion.

But you may not have heard that his victims included the foundations that support some really important progressive organizations. Groups that fight for human rights, fair elections and racial justice are getting hit hard—just in time for the holidays. We've worked side-by-side with many of them.

If these groups can't replace the funding that came from investment accounts that Madoff stole, they may be forced to start cutting important projects or, in some cases, even lay off staff.

Can you pitch in $25 or $50 for each of the four organizations we're highlighting below? Our friends at Atlantic Philanthropies and the Open Society Institute will each match every dollar that comes in until January 1! So, for the next three days, your donation of $25 or $50 means $75 or $150 for groups affected by Madoff. If a few thousand of us give together, it can make an enormous difference—and help repair some of the damage Madoff has done. Click here to contribute:

Your end-of-the-year gift will be tax-deductible as if you had made the gift directly to the designated charities; we will forward 100% of your contribution to the organizations you select.

Many organizations have been hit by this crisis. We're highlighting the four that MoveOn has worked closely with over the last few years. Here's a bit about each of the groups:

The Brennan Center for Justice is a nonpartisan institute that focuses on fundamental issues of democracy and justice. Their work ranges from voting rights to redistricting reform to checking presidential power in the fight against terrorism. MoveOn has worked with the Brennan Center closely in the fight for fair elections. Chip in to help them out here.

Human Rights Watch is one of the world's leading independent organizations dedicated to defending and protecting human rights. By focusing international attention where human rights are violated, they give voice to the oppressed and hold oppressors accountable for their crimes. Its rigorous, objective investigations and strategic, targeted advocacy build intense pressure for action and raise the cost of human rights abuse. MoveOn has worked with Human Rights Watch on campaigns to preserve the constitution and protect human rights in America and abroad. Chip in to help them out here.

Advancement Project is a policy, communications and legal action group committed to racial justice founded by a team of veteran civil rights lawyers in 1998. They have pursued critical litigation to protect voters and also support grassroots movements for universal opportunity and just democracy in the areas of education and immigrants' rights. MoveOn has worked with Advancement Project to stop vote suppression, especially among minority folks. Chip in to help them out here.

The Center for Constitutional Rights is dedicated to advancing and protecting the rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Founded in 1966 by attorneys who represented civil rights movements in the South, CCR is a nonprofit legal and educational organization committed to the creative use of law as a positive force for social change. MoveOn has worked with CCR to hold President Bush accountable for his unconstitutional acts, from illegal wiretaps to Guantanamo. Chip in to help them out here.

2008 has been an extraordinary year. Together, MoveOn's 5 million members have done so much—and we have a new president and new hope to show for it. But we wouldn't be where we are as a country without a strong movement of interconnected progressive organizations. Let's come together one last time to keep that movement going strong.
Thanks for all you do.

Is it just me or the MSM or is GWB waffling big time about his failures at the end of his terms. I am seeing a lot of MSM coverage of this.

I thought he had did well in the face of some stupefying ignorance of a large part of the population.

No big terrorists attacks. I understand Saddam was paying the families of suicide bombers to gain time at the UN to delay action against himself. He was killing people outside his country to further his butchery. I say good job GWB there. WMD... who knows minor issue.

Katrina... failure on GWB's part? I don't think so. The first responders of the chocolate mayor failed big time. The state governor failed big time. They all left their baggage for the feds. Federal institutions are at best weak responders to immediate events unless it's collecting a tax or putting you in jail. The failure in Katrina was that a welfare society didn't know how to act once that society was disrupted. It has virtually zero to do with the feds.

GWB is sorting out radical Islam in the face of deniers. Not an easy job.

I do think he appointed too many cronies out of Texas. I think he failed on the two border guards locked up by one of his cronies in Texas. There he has let the Office the Presidency be misused.

He is weak on propaganda and thinks fighting the good fight will bear him out. That is a two edged sword.

I don't think he should be concluding his presidency by stating his regrets and mistakes. Do it in a biography post presidency.

Rusty Easy was more like the Vega my then female next friend owned. When the rocker panels rusted out on those cars, we patched with steel wool and duct tape, painting over in flat black using the bottom of the front bumper as the line.
We thereby created the first VEGA GT's. As long as the engine still had compression, they were salable. Pintos were a different story (Disclaimer - I paid for most of my higher education assembling them - a Henry Ford Scholarship - THE HARD WAY). Pintos were actually pretty reliable mechanically, and slow to rust for that day. Getting rear ended was problematical as the gas tank was also the trunk floor.

Rusty Easy was more like the Vega my then female next friend owned. When the rocker panels rusted out on those cars, we patched with steel wool and duct tape, painting over in flat black using the bottom of the front bumper as the line.
We thereby created the first VEGA GT's. As long as the engine still had compression, they were salable. Pintos were a different story (Disclaimer - I paid for most of my higher education assembling them - a Henry Ford Scholarship - THE HARD WAY). Pintos were actually pretty reliable mechanically, and slow to rust for that day. Getting rear ended was problematical as the gas tank was also the trunk floor. Perhaps they were male porn stars like "Kingsley Flame.

they owe it to each other to play smart and play hard...so they dont like the coach...play the fucking game anyway...man up

It's not a question of "liking" the coach (quite the opposite -Phillips is a players coach). At some point the coach and his staff have to come up with a game plan and to fit it to the talent he has. If a team is given a game plan that they know can not be successful it doesn't matter how much they do or don't like the coach.

so how is that Phillips fault...I just have a different opinion...players lose their heads, players make penalties, players dont know the rules..screaming and yelling didnt work for Parcells too good...the onus by 3 to one is on the players...they create the chemisty and they make the plays

so then why even have a coach on the sidelines? Why not just a cardboard cuttout of ,, oh ,, Jessica Simpson perhaps !

Then of course there was the "Fox" Mustang of noisome memory. This morning at the grocery store I saw a charcoal gray one with no discernible rust and no apparent bodywork (an '82, I think). I actually had to stop and stare- most Foxes I see look like they spent the last two decades in Lake Erie.

It amazes me that the Mustang name survived those little griefboxes.

My one NFL comment contribution for this season since I don't watch it is - Holy crap, Arizona's above 500! Week 2 or so they were #1 and I, like everyone else, knew it wouldn't last and decided not to check up on them again until near the end of the season. I'm quite impressed that they're above 500. I think their franchise average (I calculated it once) is about 0.350. Frickin' Bidwells!

. . . Katrina... failure on GWB's part? I don't think so. The first responders of the chocolate mayor failed big time. The state governor failed big time. They all left their baggage for the feds. Federal institutions are at best weak responders to immediate events unless it's collecting a tax or putting you in jail. The failure in Katrina was that a welfare society didn't know how to act once that society was disrupted. It has virtually zero to do with the feds. . .

You are correct the first responders of the city itself failed big-time, and that the governor failed big-time, AND they left all the baggage for the feds, who in my opinion, responded as quickly as they possibly could have, given the total chaos created by the gov and the mayor.

BUT I would like to clarify one point - the STATE Wildlife & Fisheries responders were in NO, almost immediately, before the rains had stopped, in boats, rescuing people.

They had moved their personnel and equipment to the central part of the state, out of harm's way, and before the storm had completely passed, started moving from central La. to N.O. (about a 4 hour drive) and were in NO quickly.

These folks got no press, no kudos from their boss the Gov., no nothing - they were unsung heroes of that situation.

GM's equivalent was the second generation Camaro and Firebird (as seen on The Rockford Files). I (briefly) owned a 1974 Firebird in the early Eighties, and ditched it for parts due to its rear spring mounts being totally rusted out, to the degree that they were letting the rear axle twist, locking the brakes at the most inconvenient moments (like going down the interstate). I bought it from a local dealership, who is still in business and whom I refuse to do business with to this day. (Used car side of a local GM outlet.) According to a friend of mine who's done body and fender work for the last 30 years, this is typical of the breed- he refers to the condition as "congenital weak-arse".

But even that turkey was superior to the modern-day GMC Astro Van. I have yet to see one of those with a complete body, especially below the beltline.

Hardline Iranian students break into British Embassy residence

Iran's official news agency says dozens of hardline students have broken into the British Embassy residence in Tehran.

The IRNA agency says the students accuse Britain of supporting Israel's air assault on the Gaza Strip.

According to the agency, the students stormed the compound Tuesday evening and pulled down the British flag.

IRNA says the students then hoisted a Palestinian flag at compound's entrance before police forced them to leave.

Peres: ‘whoever asks us to stop shooting have to change address’

JERUSALEM (EJP)---“We cannot permit that Gaza will become a permanent base of threatening and even killing children and innocent people in Israel for God knows why,” Israeli President Shimon Peres said.

“Whoever asks us to stop shooting, they have to change the address. Let them turn to Hamas and ask them to stop shooting, and there won't be shooting,” he added in special statement on the Israeli army’s attack on the Hamas terror infrastructure in Gaza and the ongoing Palestinian rocket fire on civilian areas in southern Israel.

He said: “It is the first time in the history of Israel that we, the Israelis, cannot understand the motives or the purposes of the ones who are shooting at us. It is the most unreasonable war, done by the most unreasonable warriors.”

Peres recalled that Israel has left Gaza completely, “out of our own free will at a high cost.”

“In Gaza there is no single Israeli civilian or soldier.”

I knew a girl in college with a Pinto. One of the seat mounts had pushed through the floor.
But then, with Miss Piggy driving, it isn't surprising.

Kosh -

The easiest thing to break on a Pinto was the handbrake cable. Seat frames weren't the greatest either. Motors, Clutches, Manual Transmissions and Rear Ends were up to snuff as they were sourced, mostly, from Ford Europe's Parts Bin through 1973, one of Lee Iacocca's better ideas. In 1974, the 2.3 L "Lima" engine appeared. The engine was tough enough, a version powering the Mustang SVT, ending it's lifespan a couple of years ago in the Ford Ranger. Pre Cat Converter emissions however took its toll that year - average MPG with Automatic Trans was about 16 that first year.

3. Kill any Muslim who does not believe exactly as they do, and then

4. Get down to the serious business of double-elimination killings to determine which of them is the one, ultimate, most perfect servant of Allah.

re: #613 The Shadow Do

I know this is not a sports blog (car swarms excepted), but I am truly shocked by Shannahan's firing. Bowlen has been an excellent owner and made a life time commitment to Shanny. I say this as a Colorado expat who was there through it all including the two Super Bowls.

Now in Dallas. Man, is Bowlen ever a contrast with the Jerry. That said, there would be something poetic about Shannahan replacing Wade Phillips in both cities? Shannahan would be just what the doctor ordered in Dallas, but Jerry needs to get the hell out of the way first.

Shanahan is too smart for that.

There are no legitimate reasons to discriminate, either way. That said, there are plenty of 'objective conditions' for it from Blagojevich's POV. Most obviously, that Burris is Jesse Jackson's right hand man at PUSH, and thus can be counted on to toe the Party line on pretty much everything-namely to ensure that his former CEO's skeletons stay buried. By hitching his wagon, even indirectly, to the star of a man the Dems really can't afford to piss off, Blagojevich is seeking to bulletproof himself.

It will be interesting to see if it works.

Specter carries message from Israel to Syria

WASHINGTON (JTA) -- U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter carried a message from Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to Syrian President Bashar Assad.

Specter (R-Pa.) met Sunday with Olmert in Israel, where he said he "got a review of the Syrian negotiations" from the Israeli prime minister, the Jerusalem Post reported. He left Israel Monday, and refused to discuss the details of the message he was carrying.

Some Palestinian media are blaming Hamas and not Israel for the escalating violence in Gaza.

The Middle East Media Research Institute reports the director of the Palestinian TV and Radio Authority says, "Hamas blocked its ears... they should have had a little bit of political and security sense."

The editor of one Palestinian newspaper says, "Why hasn't Hamas prevented the aggression and the massacre? How many times have we written... that these missiles [are] ineffective and contrary to the supreme national interest?"

And one Palestinian columnist wrote, "Will we learn the lesson, or are our leaders going to run away from bearing responsibility, as they usually do?"

The Seventies Capri was a great little car. I've always been amazed that Ford stopped selling them in the U.S.- probably because they reminded everyone just how crappy the Mustang II was.

Atheist Group Files Lawsuit Against Prayer at Presidential Inauguration

The head of an atheist group that has filed a lawsuit against prayer at Barack Obama's presidential inauguration says the government is picking a winner between "believers" and "those who don't believe" and subjecting atheists and agnostics to someone else's religious beliefs.

Dan Barker, co-president of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, has joined with Michael Newdow, who fought to have the words "under God" removed from the Pledge of Allegiance, in a federal lawsuit seeking to enjoin the Presidential Inaugural Committee from sponsoring prayers at the official inauguration.

As opposed to subjecting the rest of us to stupid, frivolous lawsuits every other week.

Broke my back in two places. Snake Farm refused to total the Mustang, so I traded the rebuilt wreckage in on a 95 Lightning, that I still have.

White nationalists hope to create a third alternative to the current US two party system

Under the guise of “controlling immigration”, the far right Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), the most influential anti-immigrant group in the United States, has stated publicly that one of its top goals for the next federal legislative session is to restrict the 14th Amendment. The Federation for American Immigration Reform was founded by John Tanton, a conservationist and retired ophthalmologist. FAIR has received 1.2 million dollars (U.S.) from the “racial science” foundation the Pioneer Fund. FAIR has many associations with political extremists including white nationalists.

Muslims Ask Obama for Inclusion, Change

WASHINGTON — A coalition of the 12-largest Muslim organizations in the US has issued an open-letter to President-elect Barack Obama urging him to break away from the long-criticized policies of President George Bush's administration and to engage the American Muslim community.

"We...wish to see you instruct senior officials in your administration to reinstate roundtables with Muslim leadership for all departments, such as State, Justice, Homeland Security and Health and Human Services," said the American Muslim Task Force on Civil Rights and Elections (AMT).

Unveiling the "American Muslims in the American Mainstream," open-letter in a press conference on Monday, December 29, AMT chairman Agha Saeed said the incoming Obama administration needs to take notice of the American Muslim community.

"Ninety-five percent of Muslims voted on the day of election," he stressed.

"That was the highest voter turnout of any community in America."

An AMT poll found that 89 percent of Muslims voted for Obama while only two percent voted for Republican candidate John McCain.

Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), affirmed that US Muslims are "capable" and ready to help bring the change Obama has promised during his campaign.

"American Muslims are [a] vibrant community and we would like to be part of that change."

State Senator Larry Shaw, the longest-serving Muslim elected official in the US, agreed.

"Within the Islamic community in America are untapped resources," he said.

"We are very highly competent and capable people who can head any secretary department or deputy department or senior-level management."

If he doesn't put one in a high level position I expect much seething to commence.

We had "eat it all or sit here all night". I still remember the portion melamine plates with the red stains from the beets that sat in that section for hours!

Back in '53 my sisters and I were sent off to a Catholic boarding school in Benica, CA.

When you went thru the food line it was just sloped on - you had no choice. Our younger sister ate like a bird and could never finish - a 300 lb + - no kidding - Nun would force feed her till it was all gone.

We stuck up for her once and only once - begged our Grandparents to take us back - after 8 months they finally did.

She became a celebrated chef - go figure.

That is message coming across local Houston news channel 13.

Although I've seen Israeli news sources to the contrary, my radio has been talking about a ceasefire all day. I think (hope) it's just the media's way of pressuring Israel to lose again.

Mainer on thin ice for drunk driving ... in a Zamboni

PORTLAND, Maine - If you must drink . . . please don’t drive the Zamboni!

A Portland man faces a drunken driving charge after police officers found him aboard an idling Zamboni inside the Cumberland County Civic Center.

Cops and firefighters had been alerted by an alarm at about 2 a.m. Tuesday that somebody was inside the arena, which is home to the Portland Pirates hockey team.

They said they found 22-year-old Adam Patterson attempting to operate the Zamboni, which had crashed into a wall inside the arena’s storage area.

I'm reading about "posse comitatus". Any insights and/or links are welcome.


Here's a recent update on that. It's not great news...

CANCELLATION OF POSSE COMITATUS?

Recently, Congress passed a controversial bill which grants the President the right to commandeer Federal or even state National Guard Troops and use them inside the United States. This bill, entitled the John Warner Defense Appropriation Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (H.R. 5122.ENR), contains a provision, (Section 1076) which allows the President to:

“...employ the armed forces, including the National Guard in Federal service, to...

1. restore public order and enforce the laws of the United States when, as a result of a natural disaster, epidemic, or other serious public health emergency, terrorist attack or incident, or other condition in any State or possession of the United States..., where the President determines that,...domestic violence has occurred to such an extent that the constituted authorities of the State or possession are incapable of maintaining public order;
2. suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy...”

Senator Patrick Leahy and others have condemned Section 1076 because it effectively nullifies the Posse Comitatus Act and the Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C. 331-335) and gives the President the legal ability to define under what conditions martial law may be declared.

H.R.5122 was signed into law by President Bush on October 17, 2006, and will take effect October 1, 2007 (unless an earlier effective date is established by regulation). "On the same day, Bush signed the Military Commissions Act of 2006, which abolishes the legal protection of habeas corpus, authorizes the president to detain and jail anyone (even US citizens) without charge and subject them to harsh interrogation that may or may not involve torture."

Poll shows rise in premarital sex in Iran

An increasing number of Iranians are having sex illegally outside marriage, The Guardian reported Monday, quoting Iran's state-run body for youth affairs.

A survey by the national youth organization found that more than one in four men aged 19 to 29 had experienced sex before marriage. About 13% of such cases resulted in unwanted pregnancies that led to abortions. Sex outside marriage and abortion are outlawed under Iran's Islamic legal code, the report said.

The survey also revealed that the average marrying age had risen to 40 for men and 35 for women, a blow to the government's goal of promoting marriage to shore up society's Islamic foundations.

...

However, Hojatoleslam Ghasem Ebrahimipour, a sociologist, told Shabestan news agency that the trend was due to the availability of premarital sex, and feminism among educated women. "When a woman is educated and has an income, she does not want to accept masculine domination through marriage," he said.

Not even useful as an idiot! What happens to these guys when they get old? He could be Carter with a mask on. His logical reasoning ability has gone soft and his brains are mush along with his sympathetic emotions. Is it the decrease in testosterone?

Listen to this anti Semite who has influence with Obama only if you haven't eaten in the last 10 minutes and if you can control your rage.

He makes me sick, and guys like this surround Obama.

I'm not easily pissed off. I'm mildly irritated that Caroline Kennedy can be seriously considered as a US Senator. I'm more than a little ticked off that less than a month before the inauguration of the first African American President, anyone would seriously suggest that Obama's successor must be an African American.
But for Bobby Bleepin' Rush to warn against "lynching" Roland Burris is just absurd. We've found the idiotarian of the year.
Martin Luther King's dream was that his children would be judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin. It's apparently too much to expect politicians to remember that.

re: #759 Killgore Trout

The Pioneer Fund has also had a long, long association (in terms of funding) "sociobiology" (that's linked with racists, IQ debates, etc, etc, and goes waaay back, as i'm sure you are aware...)

re: #931 Render

I'm a family of one. I don't need four doors, or a back seat. My '95 with its full factory true dual exhaust already sounds like an M-60 tank, the last thing I need is a truck that sounds like a motorcycle.

95 Lightning is the first gen model. No blower, all 351ci Windsor motor, GT-40 intake, GT-40 heads, E4OD trans. Rock solid and reliable, old school technology with a dash of new school computer controlled fuel injection and a Jackie Stewart designed suspension. 4,400lbs and .9 g on the skidpad.

I'M
GOOD,
R

Render -

Nice Truck! - AND so I shall "shove" my family of 3.5 (.5 is Melech the Wonder Shepherd) into our 2002 Focus ZX-3 (5-speed) and take off for the rest of the evening. By the way - if memory serves correctly, .9g is 'vette Territory.

-S-

re: #278 ArmyWife

I think the warning was the shots. We call them "warning shots".

/really, are they that dumb?

OK, now I'm LOL.

No, it's exactly what to expect from a racist. It has nothing to do with him being a politician. Bobby Rush is a former Black Panther. I expect no less from his kind.

"Conducting" is when you draw "designs" in the nowhere -- with your stick, or with your hands -- which are interpreted as "instructional messages" by guys wearing bow ties who wish they were fishing.
