I don’t know how to embed the picture in my post. πŸ™ If someone does then by all means feel free to modify my post. Hehe.

I wanted my first article of 2010 to be a report about something positive. πŸ˜‰

DNC Moving to Eliminate the Power of the Super Delegates

You’ve spelled things out very well actually. Indeed, the levels to this are rather bewildering.

I do not know of this “sports” about which you speak, but I do hear people talking about these guys quite frequently.

Personally I find this dude to be a little scary looking…

***UPDATE***

Just to clarify, given that it was pepe who responded with the name of the college I had to presume he was thinking of the sports teams. πŸ˜‰ Hehe.

Honestly being a Democrat in Kansas is almost pointless. 😐 I am a small dot of blue amidst a sea of blood red.

Could it be as a means of calming emotions after what happened in 2008? I mean to say, could this be a way of publicly restating something in order to allay fears of a reoccurance or something?

In rereading that I find that my initial guesses make about as much sense as the subject about which I am musing. πŸ™ I shall ponder more… hehe.

What the point of having them at all under these circumstances is remote to my understanding.

I’m not exactly clear what the point is myself. I’m still trying to sort that one out. Could it be as a means of calming emotions after what happened in 2008? I mean to say, could this be a way of publicly restating something in order to allay fears of a reoccurance or something? I shall continue to ponder.

In Kansas I’m a registered Democrat for some of the very reasons indicated above. I agree with you about SDs. I too would like for them to retain their powers.

The Golden Music Man

boomer, I sent an email to you. It’s from a Yahoo! account so you might want to check your spam folder. >.> Sometimes Yahoo! is considered spam. πŸ™

Emerald, you have an email too.

Sorry that this is OT, but any responses I make seem to end up in the wrong place. πŸ™

… You’re reading it? *gasp!* … and here I was thinking you’re brave to climb mountains! πŸ˜‰ Hehehe.

Thanks for your compliment, but I wasn’t in the know about left wing radio doing gold ads too. πŸ˜‰ You were the one in the know on that one! Hehe. πŸ™‚ Thanks for telling me too.

I heart abby. πŸ™‚

Thanks! πŸ™‚ I’m glad your frown is gone. Hehe.

» Posted By Scheherazade On December 30, 2009 @ 4:07 pm

I did. πŸ™‚ Although, it was a response to something I got via email. Hehe. You’ll see. I sent it just a moment or two ago.

» Posted By Scheherazade On December 30, 2009 @ 4:06 pm

Hmm. That’s interesting about other radio show hosts. I usually listen to left wing radio via the Internet. I guess they don’t do the gold ads that way.

I am encouraged that advertisers have been pulling their commercials from his television show. There are a few that have stood firm though. Some are not at all surprising.

So who’s still advertising on Beck? December 23 edition

Okies.

I was pretty hard on her too, but that’s to be expected during the primaries. I agree that she handled things very well when Obama received the nomination.

From Talking Points Memo:

Poll: Obama The Most Admired Figure — And GOPers Still Prefer Him To Glenn Beck

A USA Today/Gallup poll finds that President Barack Obama is the country’s most admired man, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is the most admired woman.

Among Republicans, Obama came in second to George W. Bush, but still beat out Glenn Beck in the poll.

The poll asked “What man that you have heard or read about, living today in any part of the world, do you admire most?” In response, 30% gave Obama as their answer, dominating Bush, who was the second-highest most common response, with 4%.

When the same question was asked about women, Hillary Clinton barely edged out Sarah Palin 16%-15%, with Oprah Winfrey taking third place at 8%.

…continued at Talking Points Memo.

The poll itself is found here.

Whither Guantanamo?

Thanks for posting that article. πŸ™‚ I hadn’t seen it.

» Posted By Scheherazade On December 30, 2009 @ 1:22 pm

It is my feeling that if the Bush Administration had actually followed the rule of law there would not be the danger of the guilty being free to cause more harm. If the DOJ had actually pursued things as a matter of gathering legal evidence, rather than using torture and other forms of coercion, then we would have a better understanding of who is guilty and who is innocent.

Perhaps that is my idealistic viewpoint. Hehe.

The legal system doesn’t always work, but I feel we’d be better able to prevent things from happening if we actually had applied the legal system the way in which we should have.

» Posted By Scheherazade On December 30, 2009 @ 11:17 am

Guantanamo has become a symbol of the hypocrisy of America.

“Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

How can we even have a statue with a plaque which displays these words and continue to allow Guantanamo to remain open? It’s madness!

I don’t care about the details of their status. Even people in the GOP were uncomfortable with using the term “enemy combatant” to imprison people indefinitely without trial. If we’re a country of laws then those laws should apply equally to everyone who breaks them. We cannot simply use legal semantics to justify inhuman and unjust behavior. Closing Guantanamo would symbolize our nation’s rejection of hypocrisy and an embrace of legal justice.
