Their polls suck.

So which group of terrorists are hiding out on the moon and why bomb it tomorrow? I heard some joke skit on tv and the guys were supposed to be from NASA. They said they were bombing the moon tomorrow because tomorrow was a full moon and they wanted to be sure they blew up the whole thing.


Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.

needs more funding right now and someone made a snark that the only way to get it is to relate it to terrorism, or the fear card?

Plus, just think of all the money to be made from the sale of moon rocks. We'll have a whole bunch of them if we can catch them all. Green cheese chunks for everyone.

There was a guest on Fox and Friends, I believe his name was Lanny Davis. He set Michelle Malkin and the blonde who isn't steve ducey, straight on the President's health reform bill. Malkin was lying out her ass and the blonde had her facts wrong (so what else is new?) Davis called the blonde out for having her facts wrong and she accused him of "throwing her to the wolves) Good times!

Hey look, world leaders are leading. Now the people need to catch up - http://www.grist.org/article/2009-10-07-on-cl...
Something strange is happening in the struggle to wake the world up to the dangers of climate change. World leaders are out ahead of public opinion.
Because this world still believes in silly superstitions and greed is still a disease that needs to be eradicated for our future survivability on this planet...

Bipartisan Report Claims Solving the Climate Crisis “Depends on Tropical Forests” - http://www.desmogblog.com/bipartisan-report-c...
The report concludes that U.S. climate policies: "must help address the pervasive effects of deforestation, which accounts for 17% of global greenhouse gas emissions – more than the entire global transportation sector.
Without incorporating robust tropical forest protections into new U.S. domestic climate laws and international agreements, all our other immediate efforts – to reduce emissions, expand clean energy and improve fuel efficiency – could be undermined by the continued destruction of the world’s carbon-rich tropical forests.
In fact, avoiding unacceptable risks of potentially catastrophic climate change is likely to prove nearly impossible without conserving the planet’s 'climate forests.'”

CIA Climate Change Office Under Attack Before It Even Opens - http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/10/cia-c...
Senator John 'Headless Horseman' Barrasso (R-Exxon/Wyoming) doesn't like this idea one bit and is hoping to starve the office of funding before it even gets started, reports The New York Times. Why does a department of spies need a climate change office?
Wow...con-servatives just can't take the fact that it is truly the world against them and their idiotic extinctionist/denier/'skeptic' fantasyland BS....

TURN OFF FOX - http://www.turnofffox.com/
Stop the spread of the FOX cancer by getting it turned off in public places: such as pubs, doctor's offices, airports and restaurants. Become an ambassador to decrease the influence of FOX's misinformation and propaganda. This is BuzzFlash's first advocacy project and we need a national guerilla squad of individuals who will join us in various strategies to stop the spread of FOX into public settings.

Murdoch's Wall Street Journal Pumps Beck Czar Meme in Top Front Page Headline - http://www.opednews.com/articles/Murdoch-s-Wa...
And for those con-servative schmucks keeping score at home...how many CZARS in title did GWBush have...47...and who really came up and ran with it....Nixon & Reagan... STFU....

'Soldiers' Fighting the Imaginary War on Christmas Hypocritically Use Capitalism as a Weapon Against the Godless Liberals at The Gap -
- http://blog.buzzflash.com/analysis/918
Still other companies seem fearful of losing the militant Christian dollar. Sears created a "Christmas Club" card that rewards customers for saving up Christmas spending money destined for their stores. The American Family Association (AFA) insists the card is the direct result of pressure from their organization pushing retailers to openly use the word "Christmas."
Dismayed that the folks at The Gap and others will continue to eschew the word "Christ" in their holiday advertising, the AFA has come up with a new tactic to combat this terrible scourge on Jesus' birthday, which they're calling "Project Merry Christmas."
Really, really, really??????? All of the problems in the world...and this is what they're worried about....que the Styx 'too much time on my hands'....

Franken Amendment Significant Step In Ending Military Culture Of Impunity That Allows Violence Against Women But Much More Is Needed
- http://www.feministpeacenetwork.org/2009/10/0...

With many eyes trained on candidate recruitment efforts against Democratic Rep. Alan Grayson in Florida’s 8th district, it appears the focus is turning to one high-profile potential challenger — former state Sen. Dan Webster.

If you haven't already...please go contribute, something, anything....he has a $10 for 2010 option on his site... We need Dems to know that we will back them when they speak truth to Republicans...

WELL WE TOLD YOU SO: Gallup Poll: GOP gaining on Dems for control of Congress - http://features.csmonitor.com/politics/2009/1...
"There is a major partisan divide in the president’s approval numbers, with 88 percent of Democrats happy with his performance but only 12 percent of Republicans satisfied with it."
And yet....why do the Dems give a crap about the republicans favorability ratings....they're against everything they do anyway....why do you want to appease 20%ers???????
The Dems are WAY TOO SPINELESS for their own good....American voters like decisive, definitive actions....if they vote for you...they voted for your policies...enact them now....or suffer the consequences in a year from now...

OFF THE DEEP END: Con-servative Extinctionist/Denier Chamber of (Old-business as usual) 'Commerce': Global Warming is Good for You - http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2009/10/more-...
After losing several high-profile members over its climate policy, the US Chamber of Commerce spent much of this week attempting to convince the public that it does believe global warming is a serious concern that Congress should act upon. But in comments recently submitted by the group to the Environmental Protection Agency, the group advanced a very different view.
In its submission, the Chamber questioned the science behind the phenomenon of climate change, suggested that humans are now less vulnerable to rising temperatures because of the growing use of air conditioners—and theorized that even if the planet is getting warmer, that might be a good thing.

This is Bizarre Even for Michele "Census Worker's Blood on my hands" Bachmann - http://dumpbachmann.blogspot.com/2009/10/this...
Serious question to the con-servatives....do you morons make the short straw person become the drum major for the bat$hit band of your party??? Or is she happy to be herself???

After Downing Street: Top 15 Reasons to Get Out of Vietghanistan - http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/node/46818
When oh when we learn???? The areas where schools have been built to empower & educate Afghan girls & boys...those areas have driven the Taliban out...whereas the areas we bomb mercilessly are the areas where they have strongholds...gee...even a 5 year old could figure this out...

Because a public option coming out may not look anything like the public option going in. Indeed, the ramping-up likelihood is that it'll be crammed through Congress' nifty Chop-o-matic, exsanguinated by a Republican senator's "trigger" and then, at the hands of assorted Democratic senators, have its molested bones bleached and scattered throughout the individual states.

We don't inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children - Native American proverb
If being cold means there's no such thing as global warming, does being full mean there's no such thing as world hunger?

Keith's special comment last night should be mandatory viewing for every American. It was a bit long but it had to be to cover all the material he wanted to cover. I liked that he wasn't as overly dramatic as he sometimes is and that he made it personal.


Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.

I sent an email to all of my members of Congress asking them to please watch it.

As we contemplate the escalation of one war, and the beginning of a third, here is a reminder at how bad the US is at what we are doing: spreading democracy.

We are actually spreading the legs of these countries and raping them repeatedly.

Listen to this woman from Iraq describe what all of our efforts have made Iraq today (starts with a brief quote from Ron Paul about wasting money in wars)

Bob Dole: "I don't want the Republicans putting up a 'no' sign and saying, 'we're not open for business.'"

You just can't make this stuff up.

Still the best advise happening

I can't help but think doing this might also mean the end to crooks and liars because a large portion of their clips are from the TV.

Enjoy it while it lasts nothing is permanent.

an incredibly boring day judging from the initial scan of content out there. Repeating the same old stuff only with a different angle.

I'm very enthused about Franken's measure. Keep it up, Al!

Thanks for the link! I'm sure many people will brush off the #nestlefamily thing as 'just another mommyblogger catfight', but there are actually a lot of issues worth exploring in there, both in terms of blogging ethics and Nestle's shady business practices around the world.
