In Remembrance of KQuark

This is sad news. He was a mighty poster on HP when I joined the group in 2007. I am sorrry for PlanetPOV’s collective loss. Ice cream in heaven, indeed.

9/11 10th Anniversary Coverage – Rememberence or Terror Porn?

AdLib, many of the meatier questions you ask here may be answered by the Maddow/Engel “Day of Something/Decade of War” presentation that began last evening. The rest of it airs tonight. I had to watch last night’s show in fits and starts. Several pacing on the patio breaks. It was alternately heart-breaking and blood boiling. One of the biggest blood boilers for me is (are? See last sentence.) the fear-mongering cottage industries that have sprung up over the last decade. Another is the billions and billions that have been spent taking revenge on 19 or so assholes with box cutters. I know that’s simplistic, but it’s hot outside and I’m out of energy.

Romney or Perry – Pick Your Poison

Excellent article! Now, as a Texican, let me add, and I have it on very reliable authority, Guv. Goodhair has a really tiny weeny. If I’m audited after this post, I’m coming for you.

Weekend Music Thread – Think

KT–You’re the other half of my musical brain. Seriously.

Okay, I didn’t take the time to read the topic and the thread, but I just listened to this and had to share. I hope it fits. If it doesn’t, oh well…

The Daily Planet, Vol. 128

LOVE the Pragmatic Progressive article! Also, I took the Bagger Quiz. Happy to reaffirm that I’m neither a Bagger nor an Idiot. Hooray!

Great work, Cher.

The Enemy Within

15 feet apart? You must’ve had a great big living room!

I remember it well, tex. We have our moments. That wasn’t the best one.

Fairly well, funk. Good to see you wherever we do, kid.

tex, I can’t afford to water my NATIVE plant materials and can’t afford to lose them! Talk about a satan sandwich. Stay cool, friend.

Cute. I really like him and would very much like him to succeed. Where’s my magic wand?

**edit** “cute” not intended as an insult. ;>

I’ve had wine, so all I can do is give you a big thumbs up, funk.

Al Sharpton, while still trying to find his pundit sea legs, makes me laugh every time I watch him. LO does, too. These shows are entertainment politics. It’s what they’re designed to be. If we’re looking to find a messiah among the television hosts, we’re looking in the wrong place.

Dad always taught me: Don’t believe any one source, including your teachers. Always seek more information and opinions. Needless to say, this resulted in some interesting parent/teacher conferences.

Outrage Manufacturing, Inc.

Maybe we all need some catharsis. Maybe? Let me correct: We all need some catharsis.

Gabby Gifford on the floor today brought unexpected, yet prolonged, tears to my eyes.

Texas here by way of Oklahoma, but firmly entrenched in West Virginia.

I do!

texlib–I’d also add opiates.

Nor am I. So, a little tea and contemplation is in order. Living and judging in a 24/7 news cycle is not necessarily healthy. Opining on it before we know what is going on is reckless in my opinion.

The Debt Ceiling Crisis Thread

choice, I hope he gets the credit he deserves. I’ll not hold my breath. The other side–and some of our own–seems not to be happy until he’s out of office. I tremble to think what will replace him.

All The News That’s Fit to Pit

choicelady–I thought about googling the stone soup principle, then thought how pleasant it would be to have someone read it to me at bedtime while we sip hot toddies. Or, since it’s 103F here, maybe a chilled beaujolais.

Uncapping the caps and means testing make perfect sense to me. I heard someone earlier this evening saying that Obama is out-maneuvering the R’s on this. I hope they’re correct. Fuck firedoglake.

Sorry if I’m off topic. I thought all the topics are or should be meshed at this point. Power to the press, as if it still existed.

» Posted By chasethis On July 7, 2011 @ 8:27 pm

I ain’t skeered. I very much need to hear what the negotiations are, what the details are, but I’m trusting the dems in the room. Call me delusional.

Wouldn’t a C-Span feed be interesting?

Time Out for O/T – Vol. 16

bito, if the press does its job, and that’s a big “if,” he’ll be exposed for the limp dick fraud he is. Texas has suffered greatly. Citations abound,including the one you’ve provided.

Rick Perry is a fraud. Did I mention that?

» Posted By chasethis On August 23, 2011 @ 8:09 pm

Good. Rick Perry is a fraud. Go to Austin Chronicle, the Statesman, even Texas Monthly. Rick Perry is indeed a fraud.

Perry’s “Adios, mofo.” My favorite!

6. All of the above, especially David Caruso.

Who’s seen “Roseanne’s Nuts?” I’m not admitting to anything.

Someone here surmised, (I paraphrase) “Rumor had it Chris Christie had jumped into the race.” I stole it.
