pinkpantheroz

Hey PPO–Sad to hear about “Spock”.

In tribute, maybe we should have a Vulcan Mind Meld between all Voxers tonight?
adlib 7 days ago

Hey glenn, yes, he’ll be sorely missed, but what a legacy to leave the world of his talent
pinkpantheroz

Ad–I was never much of a trekkie–what’s a “Vulcan Mind Meld”?
glenn

glenn – A telepathic link between a Vulcan like Spock and someone else, “Your mind and my mind are one.”

Hey Funk–LOL!
glenn

Absolutely gutted about Nimoy today. My wife and I are in mourning. Which is atypical for us when it comes to people we’ve never met
funksands

Funk – What happened to the Second Extension…named that because it lasted a second?
adlib 7 days ago

Ad, there’s rumor of a secret extension available only to low-income urban voters. Coined: “ObamaExtensions”
funksands
7 days ago

Funk and PPO – Nimoy was such a cultural icon as Spock. Almost unthinkable that he wouldn’t be around one day.
adlib 7 days ago

Funk–I thought you’d be coming to us from CPAC tonight. Guess you didn’t want to submit yourself to Hannity’s “fox eyes”.
glenn

Ad, he was a much better man than an actor. World needs him back.

kesmarn

Kes – Well, quiet can be very good sometimes. Though when Boehner gets back, he may be whining in a very high pitch.
adlib 7 days ago

Ad–as for leadership skills, he had to find the pen, pick it up, sign the bill, and then try to get the “dead” out of his eyes to “smile” for the camera. That’s leadership! Especially if he did it without a teleprompter!
glenn

So it appears the Netanyahu show is still on. I email my Senators and Ben Cardin wrote me back and pretty much say “eff off”.

This is not the first time Cardin has gotten on my wrong side. He won’t get my vote next time.

adlib 7 days ago

glenn

Harleigh, that is comforting. Already the prevailing rumor in Moscow AND in certain special circles in the US that it was the CIA who pulled the hit to make Putin look bad

choicelady

Funk and Sabreen–Read today that the number of Dems who won’t show up is 37. Not many, as far as I’m concerned. None of them should show up. When will our politicians, on either side of the aisle, support the twice, duly-elected President of the United States? As far as I’m concerned, those that do show up to hear Netanhayu are damn cowards!
glenn
7 days ago

glenn – It was shot live while Snowden was first releasing the info, holed up in a hotel in Hong Kong. You see the whole thing unfold and it is very enlightening and fascinating. I haven’t seen the whole doc yet but from what I have seen, those who portrayed Snowden as a publicity seeker and egotist sure look to be very wrong.
adlib 7 days ago

funk – as a chicago person, I know I NEVER heard about this site, but about other things? oh, yeah.
choicelady
7 days ago

Yes, CL. Hope Lynch takes this one on.
kesmarn

I’m sure DOJ will extract a nice fine from someone
funksands
7 days ago

AdLib – I am one who characterizes Snowden as that. I’d be reserved about his handler, Poitras, and her truthfulness. She set up the whole thing, so of COURSE she’d make him look honorable.
choicelady
7 days ago

Ad–what do you think about Snowden?
glenn
7 days ago

It is way past time for AIPAC to be registered as a foreign lobby and to curtail all monetary and military aid to that theocratic country/race/religion called Israel. That money could be much better spent on our own people and infrastructure here in whats left of merika. Israel is a bigoted, offensive, apartheid country and should no longer receive anything from the US except our contempt and condemnation. At least they are only targeting, killing and stealing from heathen Muslims, right? Israeli Prime Minister Bobo Naziyahu is just another war criminal and Israel sucks just like the baggers here in merika.
Harleigh

glenn, I’m almost sure Cardin gets money from Israel lobbyist. Someone had posted the names on Twitter. “Smartypants” has a really good article about the Netanyahu fiasco and what other Jews are saying about this idiot.

Snowden, Manning and Greenwald are heroes.
Harleigh
7 days ago

CL – A very different view of Snowden than we have heard. It’s very interesting. I don’t know that Poitras could make him look one way or another since this isn’t an interview per se, it’s documenting the actual events and what Snowden was actually saying and doing. I’d just offer that if you saw it, what really happened, it may give you a different perspective.
adlib 7 days ago

Sabreen – REALLY like Smartypants. She finds amazing backing for her assertions.
choicelady
7 days ago

AdLib, folks in the computer community that I’m aware of (through family) — most of them — have a high opinion of Snowden
kesmarn
7 days ago

glenn – I’m going to wait to see the whole film before I commit to a firm view of Snowden but from what I saw, he seems very smart and earnest about what he was doing. And very scared.
adlib 7 days ago

sabreen60

funksands

AdLib – that is ALL I’ve heard about Snowden the Noble. Nothing he has revealed has said anything more than – we collect metadata that ties to you less than the phone book. He supported Bush’s surveillance of which i was a victim with four years of hell fromthe FBI. Bush’s folks hacked a private email, I was called by someone pretending to be a reporter who was NOT, and I refused to provide names and addresses of the people talking in the email. For years I was hounded. NOW? Crickets. Nothing. So what he revealed was worthless and took no account of his and GG’s support for what happened to ME.
choicelady

Sabreen – I don’t correct for spelling!!!!
choicelady

Snowden broke his employer contract in order to disclose information we already suspected and then fled the country to avoid arrest. I don’t view him as a hero or a nefarious criminal. I don’t mind he did it and I don’t care if he ever gets prosecuted.
funksands

CL – Again, just suggesting that seeing the film and what really happened could give you a different view of him. I’ve only seen a portion of it (it was half over when Vox started) but his demeanor and views are very interesting and not as represented.

AdLib – I’ve SEEN interviews with Snowden. I remain unimpressed. Is he scared? Who the fuck cares? He is an opportunist and looking for fame over NOTHING. What he revealed has resulted in NO smoking guns and clear info that we are NOT being listened to.

AdLib – why did he ‘change his views’ when everything he insisted be there WAS there in warrants etc. and when a Black man he detests is in office. Snowden and GG are libertarians, so this is pretty damend convenient. I think he expected to get to South America – his fear is that he can’t. Now he’s stuck. I dont’ think there’s a principled bone in his body.
