Displaying 10,111 To 10,140 Of 10,917 Comments I wish the media would cover things like this– GOP obstruction I mean!! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 5:18 pm What? I think I am misunderstanding you, Bito. Are you saying that since working- and middle-class people already pay so much in HC premiums, it’s OK to tax the cost of the premiums too? No, I know you’re not, but what do you mean? » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 2:42 pm Bito, I am not even considering writing off the bill, even though it is a disappointment and highlights much of what is wrong with our leaders and the legislative process. My rant is not even about the bill, per se, but about the funding. It could be a wonderful bill, but the fact that the Democrats would ever consider taxing the working class and NOT THE WEALTHY forces me to consider just what my party stands for. I am in the process of writing a post about the differences between House/Senate versions, but this one– about taxing union plans– is a glaring betrayal of what, to me, is a basic Democratic principle. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 12:33 pm I am thinking about it, Nellie. I have been starting work on a piece about Obama being a progressive or a Centrist, but that is not as timely. Actually, you just convinced me–OK. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 11:40 am Good idea. Here are the 5 differences between the House and the Senate bills to be resolved. http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1949965_1949963_1949955,00.html » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 11:19 am I don’t know where you got that info, but because it’s from you, I’ll believe it. Nevertheless, it is hardly better and doesn’t assuage my anger. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 10:58 am Javaz I agree. I am a union household and I can tell you, many concessions on compensation have been made time and time again over many years for health care insurance. And I assure you, we hardly have anything approaching “Cadillac” coverage! More like jalopy coverage. I am outraged that working people are being told they must offset the costs of insurance instead of the wealthy. This is something that really upsets me. Why would Obama support this? How can the Democratic Party support this? The bill is bad enough. This is totally adding insult to injury! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 10:23 am Bito, this is interesting, but I am skeptical of almost all polls, and a poll of Afghanis, even more skeptical. While this is nice news, I don’t really put much store in it. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 12, 2010 @ 10:19 am HAHAHAHAH!! Right! Sometimes you wear your hat with the bill in the front, sometimes you turn the bill to the back…. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 8, 2010 @ 6:43 pm I saw that and that’s what prompted my comment, Bito. I’ll be sorry to see him go as well. He’s such an inept fool, his mouth keeps moving disconnected to his brain. I really hope they keep him. After all, he IS the Republican’s Barack Obama, right? 😆 » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 8, 2010 @ 6:27 pm I don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad one, but it seems like Michael Steele’s days as head of the RNC are numbered. I think I’ll kind of miss the fool. (Or has this already been discussed– of so, forgive me. We went to dinner.) » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 8, 2010 @ 6:08 pm Boomer– these are treasures. Thank you! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 4:46 pm I love that site too: » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 3:48 pm Now THIS SONG is one my Goth-ette daughter will know! Damn, the words on the screen HAVE to be the real word! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 3:42 pm Hog on!! These are priceless and I’m saving them for when my husband comes home. I already had a second laugh with my daughter although she doesn’t know all the songs. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 3:33 pm That’s fantastic, so clever– but aren’t those the words to that song? I mean, aren’t they actually the right words? LOL!!! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 2:36 pm Yep and several others too– I think it’s one of those things many people mis-hear. Like the Pledge of Allegiance. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 12:24 pm “..wearing that same sadly dress…” And damn right we’re wooly! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 12:00 pm I just Laughed Out Loud!! reminds me of the warnings of the TV advertised meds– “may cause thoughts of suicide, sudden death, an impulse to gamble, and if your erection lasts longer than four hours…” I mean, wouldn’t you really rather have restless leg syndrome than an irresistible urge to gamble? To say nothing of sudden death… » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 11:50 am HAHAH! A bathroom on the right!? Yep, that’s it. Here’s some sites: 1) Robert Palmer “The ants are my friends, they’re blowing in the wind.” (Real lyric: “The answer is blowing in the wind,” Bob Dylan.) » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 11:46 am Oh, you’re right– it was WTS! And that’s the one I meant– absolutely hysterical. It’s like pop songs I mis-heard. I remember a rendition of Jimmy Hendrix’–“S’cuse me while I kiss the sky.” And I though he was saying, “Excuse me, while I kiss this guy.” (!) There are sites where all they post are misunderstandings of famous lyrics. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 11:16 am Bito– this is a reply about the nipple video you posted, because i lost where you did that– It was a riot! I bookmarked it. A really good laugh! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 10:41 am Tiger– that was RIDICULOUSLY HOT!! I am blown away–seriously. Played it four times and you have it, man. I am speechless. Can you play or WHAT?! shit! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 10:00 am I guess there are indeed cultural chasms or maybe moral chasms that can never be bridged. It is anathema to me. Incomprehensible! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 9:51 am What a tragic story. My first thought is, why would the Taliban do such things to their own people? And then I remembered that because of the tribalism there, they may not see non-Pashtuns as their own. Then I was reminded of that scene in Apocalypse Now, where Kurtz has a monologue. He tells about how the Americans came into a village to inoculate the children against some disease, and after they were done the elders of the village chopped off the arms of the children where they were inoculated. Kurtz thought that was brilliant, pure and he knew then that the US could never win hearts and minds. The point being that if a people are willing and able to do such a thing against their own children, you know you have an enemy who is never going to give up. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 7, 2010 @ 9:19 am Now, see, again, I imagined his pee freezing down his leg! Little yellow icicles. Ok, that’s my cue that it’s time to step away from the computer! See you guys tomorrow! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 6, 2010 @ 8:57 pm Your son sounds like he was a delightful–and delighted–kid. You know, I think it was Javaz who wrote something for the new year about what she was grateful for, and one of the things I am most grateful for is that my husband and I very often laugh together just before falling asleep. I wish that–pray for it– for everyone. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 6, 2010 @ 8:54 pm I enjoy your silliness! But I know what you mean–I get kinda punch-drunk when I’m tired. » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 6, 2010 @ 8:41 pm kes, that was a wonderful image– nose hairs on parade! » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 6, 2010 @ 8:15 pm This may be why I don’t like it much: When we first went to Little Ethiopia, we went with an Ethiopian friend, as his guest. They have a tradition called a goursha, where the host hand feeds his guests. I had eaten my full, especially of the dish which is raw hamburger. After the meal, our friend insisted that he hand feed me another big scoop. I managed to down it, but then he said he must feed me two times, as a mother has two breasts. That was one scoop of kefto too many!:~) » Posted By Chernynkaya On January 6, 2010 @ 8:10 pmComments Posted By Chernynkaya
