the state of the union. We bloggers already know how bad the state of the union is. Maybe those that are so comfy in their retirements will get a clue also. Perhaps some of those in congress will figure it out. I'm still hoping.
Gotta say, after so much of the last year being crappy, with last week perhaps the crappiest, I doubt I'll watch, at least live. I haven't bothered to see when it's being televised, and I've got a pretty full day helping friends spruce up a house to rent. If it's on whenever I get done, I'll watch. But it's waaay down on my list of priorities. I'm sure I'll get the highlights here, if there are any...

have made some serious mistakes but the blue dogs and the "REPUBLICAN NEOCON FASCIST NAZI CORPORATISTS" are far more guilty. The dems problem was trying to work with them.
You're so right ron. I will never buy the "it's over" meme.
Is it the 21st century yet?
and among it's many quotable lines is probably one of the most absolutely cheesy lines ever when Ilsa wonders aloud:
"Is that cannon fire? Or the beating of my heart?"
Yeesh.
Before selecting a list called "cheesiest lines" someone should have defined cheesy. That line from Casablanca (a film I also like) is unbelievably cheesy, whereas a lot of the lines in the clip are just plain bad lines (often very badly delivered) and not necessarily cheesy at all.
..."I'm here to chew some bubblegum...," is NOT cheesy. Great line from a GREAT B movie.

I didn't catch it in the theater, but I caught it shortly after on either video or HBO, and it was pretty obvious that it was commentary on Reaganism/yuppies.

"Was that the boogey man?"
"As a matter of fact, it was."
-Halloween
"Well, when you get some kind of master plan, you let ME know, eh?"
-They Live
"What does that mean? Huh? 'China is here?' I don't even know what the hell that means."

"The way I see it, the question isn't, why should you work for the NSA, the question is why shouldn't you... Why shouldn't I work for the N.S.A.? That's a tough one, but I'll take a shot. Say I'm working at N.S.A. Somebody puts a code on my desk, something nobody else can break. Maybe I take a shot at it and maybe I break it. And I'm real happy with myself, 'cause I did my job well. But maybe that code was the location of some rebel army in North Africa or the Middle East. Once they have that location, they bomb the village where the rebels were hiding and fifteen hundred people I never met, never had no problem with, get killed. Now the politicians are sayin', "Oh, send in the Marines to secure the area" 'cause they don't give a shit. It won't be their kid over there, gettin' shot. Just like it wasn't them when their number got called, 'cause they were pullin' a tour in the National Guard. It'll be some kid from Southie takin' shrapnel in the ass. And he comes back to find that the plant he used to work at got exported to the country he just got back from. And the guy who put the shrapnel in his ass got his old job, 'cause he'll work for fifteen cents a day and no bathroom breaks. Meanwhile, he realizes the only reason he was over there in the first place was so we could install a government that would sell us oil at a good price. And, of course, the oil companies used the skirmish over there to scare up domestic oil prices. A cute little ancillary benefit for them, but it ain't helping my buddy at two-fifty a gallon. And they're takin' their sweet time bringin' the oil back, of course, and maybe even took the liberty of hiring an alcoholic skipper who likes to drink martinis and fuckin' play slalom with the icebergs, and it ain't too long 'til he hits one, spills the oil and kills all the sea life in the North Atlantic. So now my buddy's out of work and he can't afford to drive, so he's got to walk to the fuckin' job interviews, which sucks 'cause the shrapnel in his ass is givin' him chronic hemorrhoids. And meanwhile he's starvin', 'cause every time he tries to get a bite to eat, the only blue plate special they're servin' is North Atlantic scrod with Quaker State. So what did I think? I'm holdin' out for somethin' better. I figure fuck it, while I'm at it why not just shoot my buddy, take his job, give it to his sworn enemy, hike up gas prices, bomb a village, club a baby seal, hit the hash pipe and join the National Guard? I could be elected president."

Oregon voted for taxing the wealthy and business for their state. Think the conservabums are gonna trash them as being "out-of-touch" with the Mid-West values of Middle American small town business owners? Evan Bayatch and Blanche Lincoln are planning to block reconciliation, even though Lincoln's expected to do as well as Coakley in the mid-terms. Geithner forced to defend corporate welfare. Coincidentally, teen pregnancies went up during the Bush years. Ironically, so did abortion. Ahnie's solution to undocumented prisoners is to send 'em South of the Border. Cops who lost their jobs over tasering a farmer on a tractor lose their appeal. It only took this long for the feds to stop people from texting while driving government-issued vehicles. The Koreas go through their usual spat. Haiti's kids are screwed. Someone think of the children.

Texas State Board of Education bans author Bill Martin's Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? from 3rd grade reading list. Pat Hardy, R-Weatherford, cited books that Martin had written for adults that contain "very strong critiques of capitalism and the American system."
In the DUH category, Ms. Hardy and her fellow board member, Terri Leo R-Spring, mistook the actual children's author under discussion, for DePaul University professor Bill Martin who wrote Ethical Marxism: The Categorical Imperative of Liberation.
Beyond the stupidity of banning books, Texas has great influence on what textbooks are available for nationwide use in public schools, and apparently ANY criticism of capitalism is now taboo.

How stupid can we get? Don't answer that, I can't handle the truth.

does the school board or school committe have a list of words for people to check to see if a book is "good" or not? I just checked my Webster's and it doesn't list "oral sex", but it does have "oral contraception." Does that mean it would be banned too.
The CA school system should be glad any of their students know how to use a dictionary in the first place.
According to the article a parent complained.
I like this quote from a different parent:

OK, so, for starters, I've never seen a Stallone movie, A Chuck Norris film, or a Steven Seagull movie. I just have never wanted to punish myself that way. I've seen maybe 1/3 of the other movies in that clip, and maybe 2 Ahhhhnold movies, one being the original Terminator. I have seen my share of really bad movies though.
What I sometimes wonder is are all those movies made for the theatre or are some straight to video. I wouldn't pay for 90% of them. (Again, been abroad soooo long; outta touch, and it seems not missing much either.)
far left loon >.<
The only decent Stallone movie was the first Rambo. He at least pointed to the PTSD that Vietnam veterans were experiencing. After that, the sequels were pure crap.
Chuck Norris, besides being a total looney tune asshole on screen and off, was so nausea producing ugly I would not waste a dime to see his films. I loved when Bruce Lee kicked his sorry ass all over the screen.
At least Harrison Ford did his action films and still pulled off grace and charm. Why Sam Elliot never got the recognition that Norris did I'll never know, he performances are always finely crafted.

Blair forced to face the music for his war crimes? Will Bush follow? Cal States want students to graduate that badly, they might force 'em to keep classes and majors. Barry was involved in the killing one of our citizens in Yemen, even though he wasn't a terrorist. Yeah, Congress, what's the rush? The millions of Americans without health care can wait. Ahnie gouged the LAUSD out of another $200 million, putting them at $600 million in the red.

Take a look at yourself here in a worn-out Mardi Gras outfit, rented for 50 cents from some rag-picker. And with a crazy crown on. Now what kind of a queen do you think you are? Do you know that I've been on to you from the start, and not once did you pull the wool over this boy's eyes?
You come in here and you sprinkle the place with powder and you spray perfume and you stick a paper lantern over the light bulb - and, lo and behold, the place has turned to Egypt and you are the Queen of the Nile, sitting on your throne, swilling down my liquor.

"I don't drive any faster than I can see. Besides, it's all in the reflexes."
How many great lines are there in this movie...
My personal favorite part is when him and Wang walk into the crime den for the first time and Jack has a tabletop, spin-dial telephone in his hand that he's waving like a badge while saying, "Don't get up fellas, we're with the phone company." Absolutely classic. When are Carpenter and Kurt going to team up again. I miss Kurt's way-too-overconfident idiot character. Even know Captain Ron doesn't hold up that well anymore, I really loved that movie when I was a kid.
He learned almost too late that man is a feeling creature, and because of it, the greatest in the universe. He learned too late for himself that men have to find their own way, to make their own mistakes. There can't be any gift of perfection from outside ourselves. When men seek such perfection they find only death, fire, loss, disillusionment and the end of everything that's gone forward. Men have always sought an end to our misery but it can't be given, it has to be achieved. There is hope, but it has to come from inside, from Man himself. - Peter Graves, "It Conquered the World."
Those were the cheesiest lines in well-known movies. If you watch Mystery Science Theater 3000 re-runs, you hear a lot worse.
Daniel Day Lewis all sexy and wet in a cave in Last of the Mohicans, avowing:
"Just stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you, no matter how long it takes, no matter how far! I will find you!"

"The greatest tyranny is censoring information in order to be better able to control people." - Cristina Saralegui
My favorite is only funny because of who said it and in the movie he said it in. John Wayne was tapped by George Stevens to appear in the epic Booblical sword and sandal job, The Greatest Story Ever Told, in which Wayne, as a centurian, has a Pauline moment, looking up at the dead Jebus on the Crux and saying: "For truly he was the son of God." Now, it's one thing for Wayne to say, e.g. "That'll be the day, pilgrim" and something else to say, "For truly he was the son of God." At that very moment as I sat in the movie theater I decided then and there to become an atheist.
