Which comes first? The chicken or the egg?

Nellie– what you put together and the separate area for our work on the Project are just masterful! Thank you– this will make it easier to communicate.

Just so you know, while the Truth Project is a daily thing I do, I am working on a new article, so may be less visible for a couple of days– unless I am procrastinating and can’t keep away!

Thanks, Nellie, I just found that. Thinking…. 🙂

What a great idea to analyze comments, Escribicat! I never thought of that. I have been keeping a tally of negative vs positive stories about Obama there on HP but just since the first of the year. I haven’t really pared them down, but so far there are roughly 80% negative stories.

I may be wrong, but my instinct tells me that one of the things that the President did that really turned off a lot of Progressives– something that he repeatedly campaigned on–is his bipartisanship. It infuriated many (myself included– I am not that mature!). After years of pent up and impotent rage at the Reptilians, I think it was frustrating to watch as Obama reached out a hand and got it spit on. Instead of being seen as statesman-like and actually mature, he was seen as weak and appeasing by some on the Left. And that was exacerbated during the health care process when Obama made gesture after gesture to the obstructionists on Baucus’ committee. Remember when he thanked Grassley and Grassley then insisted that the bill would “kill grandma?” That was too much for many.

Somebody on MSNBC commented that Americans will forgive their President for almost anything except weakness. I do NOT think for a second that Obama is weak, but the label stuck, and it has been used by the left about bipartisanship (“caving” became the synonym for negotiating) and the Right, when every single Reptilian repeated the talking point that Obama was on an apology tour, that he bows to foreign leaders.

I am not saying that this issue (bipartisanship) is the only thing the left is discontented with, but I think it created a meme that has been damaging.

Vox Populi AfterChat – 1-15-10

Well guys, as much as I’d like to play some more, I just got a phone call from my husband. He’s in the bedroom with a cold. He just asked if I could help him pull up the blanket! Normally, he doesn’t act this clingy or helpless, but when sick, he regresses. That was fun though! See you later.

Pavarotti in his prime:

I remember that. It just wasn’t right! I like fusion music, fusion food, but this? Barry didn’t sound his usual self, do you think? And Pavarotti? He was one of the greats, but not that night.

It’s like Aretha singing Nissan Dorma– Noooo!

A couple of years ago, we were cleaning out the garage with the “help” of the girls, then ages 16 & 13. We found a turntable and the girls asked what it was! They had never seen a record –all they remembered were tapes and cd’s.

That’s my favorite concert she ever gave. About 15 years ago I saw her in person at the House of Blues in LA –a very small place. Fantastic!

WOW, I didn’t know Glass wrote Koyaniskatsi (I saw the movie– great!).

But do you ever listen to This American Life on NPR, with Ira Glass? Philip’s his cousin.

Nope.

Patsy– I am dying to listen, but my husband decided now would be a good time to weed whack around the house! I’ll listen in a dew minutes.

The Chiffons are wonderful! And Carole King made me weep (for sentimental reasons). I see her fairly frequently on Morning Joke.

OK, this is embarrassing, but for some reason this song just makes me happy! (Go ahead

Impeach the Prez is a Great Song!

And Zappa reminds me of one of my faves (to Reptilians):

Frank Zappa – Whats The Ugliest Part Of Your Body 1968

LOVE this, BDM!

Is that Marta Sebastian? LOVE her! (Nice video, BTW!)

And YouTube also doesn’t have the Bulgarian Women’s Choir best hit, “Teodoro.”

EDIT:

The drummers reminded me of Stomp Out Loud: Basketballs and Kitchen:
