A five dollar contribution DOES make a difference. I am, like many of us, on a very limited income, but I try to give five bucks when a blog I love asks for help.
I know I speak for all of us at C&L when I say we CAN'T do it, and by that I mean pay for the servers and bandwidth, without your help. Thanks.
My monetary contribution is on its way!
Jingle, jingle :)
If you use twitter then tweet this
@GOPleader I boycott conserv contributors RiteAid TysonFoods JackDaniels AmExp Wendys until U get HR676 enacted RT please #progressive #hcr
That Amazon contributes to the republican governers association.
I won't buy anything from Amazon this year.
republicanism/conservatism is a mental illness that is killing America and other countries!

brilliant.

I read the same article tonight and was blown away. It is hard hitting and takes no prisoners.
Here is another article I read that really explains the misguided US foreign policy using military might and trans-national oil conglomerates sucking all the money out of Americans pockets.

Yes it was indeed brilliant. It explains what faces us today and in the near future.
Canukistani $$ arent quite greenbacks ...but as long as you keep up the good work being the Amy Goodmans of the blogosphere I'm behind you 100%!

Dec. 11: Msnbc political analyst Richard Wolffe discusses Sarah Palin’s claims that Al Gore wouldn’t want to debate someone of “her level” over climate change.

sara stumps herself!
Some stuff you can't make up!
to now be either part of a class-action lawsuit or the subject of late-night TV ambulance chasers? What ever happened to the drugs being tested before being released to the public?

those "ambulance chasers" ie. those lawyers willing to not only risk years of work with possibly no pay and tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars of their own money on an injured person's justice are some of the last remaining defenses we have.
Corruption favors the wealthy.
But ones with advertising budgets to run night after night are probably in a different league.

How's your dog? My friend Bohdi was in surgery yesterday - a lump in his leg. We were scared of cancer, but it was just a foxtail that had burrowed. Nasty plant, but we're happy it wasn't worse.
Still, a golden retriever with a cone-head can be a very destructive thing. Funny as all hell, but destructive.

We used to mow/spray them every year in CA when we raised Irish Wolfhounds. Breeders told us stories of dogs getting them into their bloodstream through the nasal cavity and other orifices. We had a couple dogs get them in toes, legs that had to be removed surgically. Any big dog with a cone is a hazard to the dog and home!
Molly's fine, but she guilt-tripped me for a few days after I removed her from her friends. But she's gotten back into my mundane routine. Hoping for better weather so I can take her to a dog park soon.

Dig in the closet; bust out the windbreaker; maybe try a 3/4 length T-shirt with some thermal boxers.
Molly will probably just smile. :)

are a lot less expensive than most people think they are.
Is it the quit smoking one? I am reluctant to take a drug that is supposed to help you quit drugs.
My sister (a pharmacy tech) was going to get me samples (passed out like candy from the pharmaceutical reps) a couple of years ago. Now it seems like the stuff is causing all sort of problems itself.

recommend it but at the time I didn't have any insurance and now Medicare won't cover it and I still believe the drug for drug ia a bad idea.
Funny thing is that Chantix was supposed to be "safe". Sad that the public has to be the guinea pigs to find out that the drugs aren't all they're cracked up to be.

Hey guys, I dont mean too sound needy, but I could use some support at Amazon.
There are a few subjects that I never bothered to brush up on.
Thanks.

Thanks, I'll need it. the level of ignorant stupid is strong with those two guys. They're good at ignoring what I say and reiterating their talking points over and over again. Especially the one who thinks black people dont understand freedom.

The bi-racial generation. A judge tosses out a Cali water pact. Did you hear the one about our net worth going up? I guess Jenny Sanford isn't going to run for President a decade from now. The Treasury Department's come up with a separate-but-equal exec pay policy. TN lets you bring guns to bars, playgrounds, and sports fields, while Congress thinks it's ok to carry them on Amtrak. The EFF appealed a ruling which protects telecoms from being held accountable for spying on us. Facebook decides to expose users. Not going to agree that Hillary was right about Barry, but he does need to work on his A-game. What part of insurance claim denials does the Senate not understand? The DOJ doesn't care about black boxers. The CIA stops (officially) doing business with Blackwater. Will the Conservadems sells us out on climate change as well? Our snow is now chock full of PCBs.
Bill O'LIEly is a crook and a liar. He even steals his ideas.

don't the bazillion ads fund you enough?
you click on them.
... but an apology for O'Reilly is always in order. Unfortunately, only his mother and father are capable of a sincere apology for the existence of Bill O, and they're probably not up to it at this point.

Bummer when we can't trust the journalism from the left, eh?

Being the Ace reporter that billo knows he is, he never mentioned one word about the radical rightwing think tanks funded by two billionair brothers. You know the ones. the cato, the heritage, damn I am pulling a blank on the other names but there is a whole bunch of them that have done nothing in the past thirty years accept dumb down the poor stupid republican voter until they have turned them into a bunch of cowardly lying fools and idiots.
republicanism/conservatism is a mental illness and it really is killing America!
Or the fact they buy millions of copies of right wing bullshit and give it away to produce an faux impression that people love reading conservatard bullshit.
Just think how much better off America would be, if these so-called patriot's paid their share of taxes to promote the general welfare of the country they always profess to love - instead of spending those billions trying to get out of paying taxes?
Cheap conservatard bastards!
Rush Limbaugh is what a smart person thinks a stupid bigot sounds like.
