Thank you for being a part of it! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 8:46 pm We can ask people to type slower. 😉 » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 8:46 pm KQ, take care and don’t wear yourself out, pace yourself, pal! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 8:44 pm I think it’s an open secret now, anyone who isn’t one of those exhibiting racism, veiled or not, knows what’s going on. As you say, how many Presidents have been criticized for speaking well? Black men aren’t supposed to speak well? John McCain was born in Panama, anyone on the Right call him a Panamanian and question his citizenship? Palin has had an exorcism. Anyone on the right question her character over having an actual witch doctor as a preacher? It’s so damn obvious and it’s just a weak dance to deny it. Especially with all the home made racist artwork and songs that come from those assholes. They know it, we know it and many in the MSM have no balls (though Jon Stewart, Colbert, KO and Rachel called it for what it is). » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 8:43 pm Hi Kalima and hello all, that was a lot of fun! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 8:33 pm ADMIN ANNOUNCMENT: Vox Populi is about to begin!

The poisoning of Progressives, to undermine Dem power, Operation Chaos – Part Two is being successfully helmed by Arianna. Even more of a reason for The Planet to keep exposing this charade called Huffington Post. One day people will look back and say it was so obvious, we need to do our part to make that day come sooner than later. » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 6:46 pm Thoughts on the Bailout Reporting—FWIW Department ADMIN ANNOUNCMENT: Vox Populi is about to begin!

We will get it fixed though. » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 6:42 pm Another wonderful person steps forward, very cool of you, Cher. » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 6:41 pm You are one cool dude, TRP! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 6:40 pm Yes, glad to hear from you and pleased to see you here. Tonight’s music thread was dedicated to you, its founder, to get better…damn, that was quick! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 6:39 pm I subbed a different YouTube link, it works now, try it! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 6:22 pm Cher, a little quirk with the Recent Comments listings I’m working on, when a comment goes to an older page, clicking on it under Recent Comments sometimes doesn’t work. As a temp workaround until that bug is ironed out, click on the Older Comments link first then on the older page, click on the Recent Comment and it should take you there. Thanks! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 6:20 pm Okay, now here are some of the rock songs that I remember establishing KLOS and KMET as FM rock stations in LA when I was in high school, a couple from The Who, Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones: The Who – Behind Blue Eyes The Who – 5:15 Led Zeppelin – The Rain Song Led Zeppelin – Heartbreaker Rolling Stones – Gimmie Shelter Rolling Stones – Sympathy for the Devil » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 5:21 pm Oh yeah, playin’ in the background now! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 4:49 pm All of these take me right back to high school days, thanks! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 4:27 pm Yeah, those official YouTube sites don’t allow embedding.

Your early faves/songs that were the soundtrack to your life when you were younger. Check it out! » Posted By AdLib On December 11, 2009 @ 11:22 am I went through a period of disappointment with Obama when he took office and didn’t try to make the huge changes to financial regulation and health care that I had hoped he would. I don’t like his supporting the Telecom Immunity bill nor his not pursuing criminal investigations of those in the Bush Admin who likely violated the Constitution and committed war crimes. I am not happy with 30,000 more troops in Afghanistan nor the tepid approach to gay rights and DADT. There’s more too but with all that said, I have the understanding of politics and apprecition for what Obama has accomplished to not condemn his presidency in full for positions I oppose. Those people claiming they won’t vote for him in 2012 or saying they can no longer support him do sound short-sighted and unenlightened to me. Do any of them think a President Romney will be more in tune with the majority of their positions? I don’t get the approach of just abandoning Obama instead of lobbying him to change his policies. He has shown to be flexible, it’s a hell of a lot more constructive to go that route. » Posted By AdLib On December 13, 2009 @ 1:14 am Hey Q! I agree with nearly the entire article but I find the conclusion unsupported, uninformed and presumptuous. It is a huge jump and frankly, a bit naive for Bromwich to claim that Obama’s motivation to work for bipartisanship on both bills is identical, a reflection of him being delusional and not using his intellect. Personally, I think Obama should have jettisoned attempts at bipartisanship after what happened with the stimulus bill. However, as Bromwich seems not to be aware, many people voted for Obama because he vowed to help end the divisiveness in DC. Had he been as disingenuous about that promise as Bromwich suggests he should have been, it would have not shown greater use of intellect but greater use of manipulation. As to the HC bill, here too I have criticism for Obama for not coming out strong and forcefully from the beginning for the plan he wanted which included a Public Option. He seems to have purposely taken the absolute opposite path as Hillary did which doomed Health Care Reform in the ’90’s. Obama thought letting Congress do all the work on the bill put his neck and thumbprint less on the bill and that would be a good thing in trying to get it passed. The pursuit of bipartisanship here is not as delusional, unintelligent and oblivious as Bromwich mistakenly assumes. It has been discussed quite a bit that the Dems and Obama want to protect themselves from the downside, if the public turns against the health care reform as ineffective after its passage, by being able to call it bipartisan. For this, they need at least one Republican to sign on. I don’t agree with such games in politics or business, using CYA as part of a business plan often corrupts whatever is trying to be accomplished. But it is the real world of politics and Bromwich is the one who seems less informed of the way things are. IMO, it is way off base and not very insightful to have come to the simplistic conclusion that Obama sought bipartisanship in both cases as proof of delusion and a lack of intellect. That said, I like saying the name, “Bromwich”. » Posted By AdLib On December 12, 2009 @ 11:07 pm You didn’t get a pair…yet. As you say, it’s the self image that these girls see, they can’t see what others do when they look in a mirror. Like anorexic girls who think they look fat but look at girls who are healthy as looking fine. It really is amazing that so much about the real world that people have to cope with is not taught…despite the fact that its been going on for a very long time. For instance, I had to learn on the street that you have to cut cocaine with baby laxative to maximize your ROI. I mean come on, that’s such a basic thing for any high school student to know. » Posted By AdLib On December 10, 2009 @ 2:22 pm What a wonderfully written, affirming tale, well done Questinia! I’ve discovered that the adamant rejection of “girly” things is often done out of insecurity, a fear that if a girl/woman was to attempt to look pretty, she might not stack up to others and be rejected as not being pretty. So by not competing, you can’t lose. Going the anti-feminine route means not being judged or rejected. However, the insecurity that spawns the desire for such a person to avoid “competing” for “pretty”, remains within the person and continues to influence them. The cool story you just described may have been such a case. Though it does sound more like Cinderella but with a boot-shoe instead of a glass slipper! » Posted By AdLib On December 10, 2009 @ 11:16 am My and everyone else’s pleasure (as you can see!). » Posted By AdLib On December 10, 2009 @ 2:25 pm Obama? Wait till you see what I have planned for it! Fondue anyone? » Posted By AdLib On December 10, 2009 @ 11:18 amComments Posted By AdLib
