Time Out for O/T – Vol. 17

Em, Your reading the twitter widget and posting them will not get on the Executive jet and a month at our Hawaiian condo, but your close.
😆 😆 😆

Thanks Em, that’s why I put them up, for people to read/enjoy/learn.

KT, most “entertainment” U-Tubes will work with the ‘v’ trick, I just have been seeing lately that some “political” sites require an embed code which is quite easy. If anyone has a problem just post the link and someone will try to open it. That’s why we make the big bucks. 😆

Hell with KK and DD, find a local bakery! 😉
(BTW, it all depends on how much potato flour they put in them. 😉 )

“I call that the rape discount,”

Victim Ordered to Pay Attacker Spousal Support
http://news.yahoo.com/victim-ordered-pay-attacker-spousal-support-201444230.html

Un-bloody believable! And he is in jail!

Who the hell is this judge?

She appealed the judge’s ruling, pointing out that her ex-husband will have no expenses while he’s in jail.

The judge agreed, but when Shawn Harris, 40, is released from Donovan State Prison in 2014, he’s entitled to ask for spousal support again. And California law entitles him to have it.

How does this happen? Oh, men like this guy:

I agree with Khirad, it’s windy but not overcast with dust and I can still see all of the mountains. The NWS has most of AZ in a wind advisory until 6 pm.

Sabreen, Chris Matthews and many of the pudnuts make many, many, many stupid comparisons. He, KO and others made a big deal about comparing an FDR speech to one of PBO’s and railed on about “why isn’t Obama like this?” Problem was they were comparing a political convention speech of FDR’s to a White House speech, a presidential speech, to PBO’s speech, stupid. Apples and footballs! These idiot pudnuts are pretend wanna-be historians with out having to do the actual work. Of course JFK was a flawed human, as we all are, he also didn’t have many thousands of lobbyists, filibusters and did have healthy majorities in Congress.
Just because Pat Buchanan is a good Irish Catholic, Chris thinks he is just “misunderstood” about his racism.

I always want to thank you for posting articles from “The Peoples View”, they have some good posts and without you, and some others, I neglect reading them, thanks for the reminders.

Murph,
Just give a description of the video and post the link will be just fine. People can click the link if they so choose.

KT and all. Many non music video’s do not work using the ‘v’ method and you have to c&p the embed code.

Hint: If you see a code after the word “embedded” it probably will not work using the ‘v’ method.

To use/find the embed code, click the ‘share’ button, and then the ’embed’ button. Copy and paste to your comment.

food, I never thought I would be pulling for a Repb. to win a house seat but, I hope he goes down in flames in his primary. But then look at Cain, the worse the story gets the higher his poll numbers and contributions get.
I can’t figure these T-Bag/Christian/Republicans out–at all. They seem to not have any conception of hypocrisy.

❗ Holy Founding Fathers

Ya gotta read this ❗

They are Afraid of a 12 Year Old Girl in Wisconsin

She was there because she had a quiz on Monday. The subject – Civics. (Yes, they still have civics classes in parts of Wisconsin – for now.)

And pray tell, what is the topic for said quiz? The Amendments to the United States Constitution – with emphasis on the Bill of Rights.

And with the recent mass arrests by Capitol Police, State Patrol, and even Conservation Wardens, cracking down on people holding signs, and videotaping in the Assembly gallery, this young woman thought it would be a great place to do her homework, and see her government in action.

What! This juvenile wanted to do her homework! And she wanted to go to the Capitol to do it?! Shouldn’t she be outside, doing drugs, or some other suitable ‘tween behavior?

[….]

Last night should be a turning point, if only the media here in Wisconsin and around the country pays attention. A 12 year old girl has her homework confiscated because she wrote “FREEDOM OF SPEECH: FIRST AMENDMENT” and then let that page of her notebook shine down on the legislators doing everything in their power to stifle the first amendment. She was even threatened with arrest!

Seems Mr. Cain is damn proud that he is the Koch’s candidate at the Koch/AFP CONclave.

Family Research Council out “onions” “The Onion.”

Deadbeat Rep. Joe Walsh, Who Owes $100k In Child Support, Receives ‘Pro-Family’ Award From Family Research Council

The Sun-Times reports that the Family Research Council, a social conservative advocacy nonprofit headed by CNN pundit Tony Perkins, has awarded Walsh a 100 percent rating as a “True Blue” member of Congress. The FRC said it gave the honor to Walsh because of his “unwavering support of the family”

[…]

And from Mr. Walsh:

“I am proud and honored to be recognized by the Family Research Council as the only member from Illinois with a 100 percent pro-family voting record,” Walsh said in a news release. “Defending American values have always been one of my top priorities, and this reward reaffirms my dedication to that fight.”

Oh that’s water under the bridge, right, (the new) Mrs. Walsh?

Additionally, it’s worth noting that Walsh’s failure to pay child support isn’t even his only failure to look out for the basic needs of his own family. As Marie Diamond noted for ThinkProgress a few months ago, “Walsh also rejected the congressional health insurance plan for his family on principle, much to the chagrin of his current wife, Helene, who had a preexisting condition and needed surgery while the couple was uninsured.”

David Koch got as big as an applause as did Ronald Reagan. 😉

FYI/HEADS-UP:

Cain and Romney will be speaking at the Koch’s Americans for Prosperity at 1:00p et on C-Span2. May be interesting, but not revealing.

Presidential candidates Mitt Romney and Herman Cain speak at the annual Defending the American Dream Summit. The annual conference is hosted by the Americans for Prosperity Foundation, which advocates fiscal conservatism. Romney’s campaign says he will deliver a “major” policy speech on government spending.

Sabreen, it was fine that you posted it, we are PPOV! 😉

Quite familiar with the author, her writings and the same people she always targets in her articles. If she ever wrote any thing positive about anyone, I would be frightened.

We don’t make Greek Pizza’s just grease pizza’s. 🙂

k’es I’m glad you had time to watch it and appreciated it, I did.

One thing I did notice was the fellow that is the head of Americans for Prosperity was quite adept at being evasive, changing the subject and a clever/deceptive word-smith. “The Tea Party stands for the same thing we do, for the middle class working people.”

Yeah, right!!!

Em, while much of what they brought up many of us know, I think it was the best compilation on their activities in one video that I have seen.

I have a different take on The Herman Cain. While the allegations are despicable and his his constant inability to tell the truth reflect very poorly on his character, what bothers me the most is his ignorance.

Right now The President is attending the G-20 Summit and I can’t help what the rest of the world’s leaders would treat Mr.Cain at such a summit. Would he tell PM Merkel that “foreign policy is like pizza making? He can’t even explain his 9-9-9 fiasco (does he even understand it?) and would get any respect while discussing world economies? Defense issues with Putin when he didn’t know that China even had nuclear weapons? Cutting all foreign aid, even to allies? Backing Israel on attacking Iran? Keeping combat troops in Iraq?

As I say the sexual scandal and his prevarications on it reflect on his character but his lack of knowledge really is the scary part to me.

Would the MSM dare to ask him about the Greek crises?

Eric the Can’t-or said yesterday that the R’s were against PBO’s infrastructure bill because it wasn’t the normal long term (6 years) bill and it have everyone paying for it, just the top 0.1%. They only care about one job, and that’s PBO’s!

» Posted By bito On November 3, 2011 @ 3:08 pm

Exactly, Sabreen, they, the R’s, filibustered the vote to not even allow debate or amendments let alone an up or down vote! 100% of the R’s did that yet it gets reported that “Obama’s infrastructure bill was blocked in the Senate.” BS! A minority of the Senate filibustered it!

Thanks Sue. When I heard the reports this morning and they said it was a small group that did it, I thought it had to be one of these groups.

– Do a Google search for “Oakland Liberation Front” right now. They are a self invented, radicalized, pseudo-anarchist group styled after Black Bloc that attempted to subvert the protests yesterday. They have not been involved in any way with holding space in Grant Park in solidarity with Occupy Wall Street to help raise awareness regarding corporate influence in governement, and have not participated in any way with any of the General Assemblies. They are not part of Occupy Oakland at all. Here, I’ll do the google search for you:

Breaking News ❓

The Republicans once again block the jobs bill

Why are they saying the Senate defeated it, the R’s wouldn’t even allow debate, amendments or a vote on the bill.
Final vote was 47-53, straight party line. Real statesmen, aren’t they? 🙁

I missed this completely, apologies to anyone that posted it, but how can this “woman” escape coverage especially meeting with these two?

Marine Le Pen’s awkward day on Capitol Hill

Following lunch and surrounded by dozens of reporters, many of whom had flown to Washington from Paris to cover her visit, Le Pen purposefully trudged across the street to the Cannon House Office Building, intent on forcing a meeting with (Ron) Paul and blaming the media and political pressure from the French government for the cancellation.

After several fits and starts on the corner as her advisers struggled with which door to enter, Le Pen quickly escaped through a security checkpoint and down a hall.

With Paul on the floor voting, Le Pen hunkered down for 50 minutes in his office, and a tight-faced Paul eventually pushed his way through the reporters, staring straight ahead as he was asked repeatedly why he was meeting with the controversial leader.

Following the meeting — alternately described as “quick” by Miller and “very interesting; we spoke at length” by Le Pen — Le Pen praised (Ron) Paul, and her own National Front, on their economic policies.

“He has been a visionary on this subject, as we have been visionaries on the economic crisis that today besets Europe,” Le Pen said as she made her way to a meeting with Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.), one of the freshman class’s most hard-line conservative lawmakers.

And I don’t remember this at all:

Le Pen’s chilly reception from Congress is an interesting contrast to Dutch politician Geert Wilders’ reception in D.C. in 2009. Wilders’ visit was sponsored by Sen. Jon Kyl and he was invited to screen his controversial film Fitna for Republican lawmakers.

Well now we know where the get their Immigration policies and views on race!
