Time Out for OT – Vol 3

Cher
Funny you should make that statement I was just thinking last night, where is our Abby Hoffman, Angela Davis, MLK, Andrew Young, Howard Zinns? Most, were protestors against the war, but is this not a just cause? Who is out there to protect the middle class? Who is going to take up the mantle? Like you said, we bounce around our houses like pinballs. When do we take action?

Actually you were right to publish it the exact way you received it. To do otherwise would have been dishonest and I know for sure you are not dishonest.

The email says it but the background says she passed herself off as a nurse, not a sewer/plumbing specialist. I am just curious why they would put that in, a nurse sounds more reasonable. My guess is they used Sendler to take a poke at Gore, but that is just me. I know what she did was heroic and many others did as well, I had seen a couple movies about her awhile ago. By lying, they lose credibility in sending the story around.

Actually that is good. Ron Paul votes like a Repug although he claims to be libertarian or some such crap. He is another sheep in “wolves clothing”. If the teabaggers are truly against both parties, then they need to act like it. I see this as a step in that direction although they have a ways to go. When the rascist shit is gone, then I might consider them viable.
You also need to remember they are a fractured group right now so it is hard to tell who is sincere.

If you find it, let me know. I would hate to be saying something incorrect just because I cannot find it.

Kalima
I have never seen anything that indicates she was a plumber/sewer specialist but rather a Social Worker and was allowed in to the Warsaw Ghetto to check for diseases such as Typhus. She also from time to time posed as a nurse and had 25 social workers at any given time helping her in her endeavors. She paid for her heroics with an arrest and detainment in Pawiak Prison where they fractured her leg and foot and tortured her. She was Catholic and had, previous to the war, been kicked out of Warsaw University for not heeding Jewish segregation laws.

I grew up around a huge Italian family and even though they were dems, they were very prejudiced. They had some shady characters in the family but otherwise were staunch patriotic Americans. In this case they could not stand republicans LOL. But they were also very forthcoming about their feelings on other “ethnic groups”. One of the uncles was reported to be “hiding” certain undesirable elements but he voted every election.

My friend sent this to me. I never received it in my email although I am on their mailing.

I saw it on HP. I can go there now that I am liberated from making comments. I closed my account the other day

As well you should not……………The Family believes:

God gave Supreme Court left hook of judgement and right cross of revival

Tancredo is a bigot, no secret about that. I would expect this from him. Which gives further credence that tea baggers probably are as well.

This was, in fact, a part of The Family’s past advocated by Mervyn K Hart

Don’t know if anyone has seen this yet. I just signed it.

This past week, progressive heroes in Congress worked together with grassroots groups to create huge new momentum behind the public option.

First, 225,000 people signed a petition telling Democrats in Congress to pass the public option through “reconciliation,” which only needs a simple majority to pass the Senate.

Then, freshman Reps. Jared Polis (D-CO) and Chellie Pingree (D-ME) embraced our cause in a bold letter to Sen. Harry Reid. A whopping 117 House Democrats signed this letter — after getting thousands of calls from constituents. MSNBC, CBS, ABC, Huffington Post, and others reported on the momentum.

Can you help us continue this momentum by adding your signature to the petition today? Click here.

Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) boldly helped us deliver the first batch of petitions to Sen. Harry Reid and other senators, resulting in even more media momentum.

(To see Grayson join the PCCC, Democracy for America, and Credo Action for the delivery, check out the video here.)

The more people sign our petition, the more our progressive heroes in Congress will feel empowered to fight for us.

Can you help us continue the momentum by signing the petition today? Click here.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.

— Stephanie Taylor, Aaron Swartz, Adam Green, Max Berger, Natasha Patel, and the PCCC team

Now let’s see if our vaulted MSM brings this to light…….

See how unrealistic these people can be? Like a jail in Haiti would have any amenities…………

» Posted By SueInCa On February 4, 2010 @ 3:54 pm

From your lips to God’s ears Bito. The problem with these people is they think they know better than everyone else and if God is directing them(which they will claim) then it is not wrong. Whether or not God is really doing so, they will claim it anyway.

I just cannot fathom what these people were thinking. If they have been involved in adoptions or orphanages in Haiti, what possessed them to try to take those kids out of the country? I understand their parents gave them up to the church people, but JHC why in the hell would they try to do something so stupid? They know the rules(or should know them) in Haiti dealing with adoptions.
It could be they are so steeped in their religion that they prayed to God to help them pass and really thought he would answer their prayers, not taking in to account what they were doing was against the law. Sometimes these people and their christianity just does not make a bit of sense. Kind of like the prayer warriors praying for health care not to pass. What in hell would make them believe God does not want health care for all people?

Disappearing ink, just like their proposals, nothing to them.

Ok if I can borrow your hubbie and the cats I can try.

Ewwwwwwwwwww. I saw a few in Hawaii, but we pay premium for our hotel rooms to hopefully guarantee none in them. So far we have been lucky. We have been there probably 10 times since the mid ninties. Went to Cabo in Sept and never saw one anywhere. I will skip houston and all of texas for that matter. To let those buggers fly is just wrong.

Bito
Don’t beat yourself up, you could not have known what they would do with it. Again i hope if Rachel finds out one of her staff stole the idea, she will come clean.

» Posted By SueInCa On February 3, 2010 @ 7:54 pm

But of course we do. We also have a strong sense of right and wrong.

Oh Dear Kalima, now I can never go to Japan. The mention of a roach motel just cinched it for me. I am deathly afraid of roaches, over the top so…………..I bought a house here and i found a few shortly after I moved in. I moved my kids out that night to my mom’s house and would not go back until they were gone. They were the big oriental roaches black and ugly.

» Posted By SueInCa On February 3, 2010 @ 7:50 pm

You just gave me a great idea. I am going to ask how much they will pay for ideas LOL

» Posted By SueInCa On February 3, 2010 @ 7:44 pm

Well, the rest of us are……….boy the bird feathers flew here, huh?

Auntie
At first I didn’t get it, now I do. NOTHING

» Posted By SueInCa On February 3, 2010 @ 7:32 pm

Cher mentioned it and you might copy and paste comments we have made here. I am sure Rachel will come clean if someone on her staff did this.

This is a site about copywriting which includes the internet. I was also given this advice when I came up with a name for my Jewelry Business.
http://www.templetons.com/brad/copymyths.html

And here is one of his tips………..

“If it doesn’t have a copyright notice, it’s not copyrighted.”
This was true in the past, but today almost all major nations follow the Berne copyright convention. For example, in the USA, almost everything created privately and originally after April 1, 1989 is copyrighted and protected whether it has a notice or not. The default you should assume for other people’s works is that they are copyrighted and may not be copied unless you know otherwise. There are some old works that lost protection without notice, but frankly you should not risk it unless you know for sure.
It is true that a notice strengthens the protection, by warning people, and by allowing one to get more and different damages, but it is not necessary. If it looks copyrighted, you should assume it is. This applies to pictures, too. You may not scan pictures from magazines and post them to the net, and if you come upon something unknown, you shouldn’t post that either.

The correct form for a notice is:

“Copyright [dates] by [author/owner]”

You can use C in a circle

Then they stole it three times, I would expect that of HP but not Rachel.

» Posted By SueInCa On February 3, 2010 @ 7:20 pm

That is just wrong, as my grandson would say. I believe they stole the idea from Bito’s email.

» Posted By SueInCa On February 3, 2010 @ 7:15 pm

I really thought she would be above the fray on that type of thing…..tsk tsk on her
