Displaying 361 To 390 Of 16,275 Comments Does Cameron (along with the rest of the Tories) think he can just sweep the Levinson inquiry, all 6 months of it under the rug and act like nothing ever happened as per Murdoch’s instructions? J.K. Rowling, amongst others, doesn’t think so: “If the prime minister did not wish to change the regulatory system even to the moderate, balanced and proportionate extent proposed by Lord Leveson, I am at a loss to understand why so much public money has been spent and why so many people have been asked to relive extremely painful episodes on the stand in front of millions. “Having taken David Cameron’s assurances in good faith at the outset of the inquiry he set up, I am merely one among many who feel duped and angry in its wake.” As much as the PM wishes this to just “go away” I don’t think it will, there just been too much news on it to disappear, don’t you think so, Kalima? » Posted By bito On December 1, 2012 @ 1:33 pm Kalima, I am still reading some of your stories, another stellar job, but your “Moment of Zen” just about had me peeing my knickers! That has had me smiling all morning and I’m sure it will last well into the night. A bit cruel and I guess that says something about me, but damn funny! » Posted By bito On December 1, 2012 @ 11:48 am Morning Kalima, even though everything I am reading that there wasn’t any damage from the latest earthquake, the fear of the “big one” must be constant and that can’t be good on anyone’s stress levels, it not like it’s anything one can get used to. Goodness K, isn’t Chiba where you live? The depth of the tremor was 80 km (50 miles) in Chiba prefecture, east of Tokyo, the Meteorological Agency said. » Posted By bito On November 24, 2012 @ 9:16 am The Republicans so want to turn this Benghazi thing into something that it isn’t it makes their hair hurt, they just have to impeach him dome how! C’Lady, me and other said about their trying to pin it down hard to one set of facts, when the whole thing was most likely a combination, duh. » Posted By bito On November 19, 2012 @ 1:40 pm Kalima I thought you might like this photo from the President’s Asia Pacific tip: [img]http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/imagecache/photogallery_img_thumb/image/image_file/p111912ps-1068.jpg[/img] Photo of the Day Oh to be a fly on the wall and overhear that conversation! » Posted By bito On November 19, 2012 @ 1:24 pm Kalima, once again you amaze with what you can do with what screen and equipment you have, especially with the peepers you have, I really am. Thanks for all your work everyday today is no exception! » Posted By bito On November 19, 2012 @ 3:49 am Sorry to hear about your mouse, I’ve heard that they like cheese, but I’ve always had better luck with peanut butter and crackers. 😉 » Posted By bito On November 17, 2012 @ 9:29 am Kalima, as much as we love and adore you and we would do anything for you… almost anything the answer is (in a very polite and soft tone) Sorry but no » Posted By bito On November 16, 2012 @ 6:46 am Kalima, that is a clever way to remember I’ll have to remember that trick. » Posted By bito On November 15, 2012 @ 3:52 am Kalima, how do you even manage keeping the Prime Ministers names apart, let alone their policies both foreign and domestic? I know can’t that is really sad for a country with such a long list of traditions. » Posted By bito On November 15, 2012 @ 3:31 am Glenn, we usually put stay to world news on Morning Blog and we when we have something that doesn’t pertain to what has been posted we put them in TO/OT, your article is a perfect example. TO/OT can be a good place to get a conversation started but it’s often a very good place for the “homeless.” 😆 » Posted By bito On November 11, 2012 @ 10:13 am Glenn, just a housecleaning moment with your post. First it’s very interesting and I intend to read the article, thanks for the link, however my suggestion is that this type of story is normally posted in Time Out for Off Topic (TO/OT) or it is posted after Kalima news of the day. No harm, no foul, just a note to you being that you are fairly new. » Posted By bito On November 11, 2012 @ 9:39 am Hello Kalima just getting started on MB this morning, just a note wishing you luck and a fun time with your sister, get those Sunday dress up clothes on and tame that hair! 😉 » Posted By bito On November 11, 2012 @ 9:10 am Hello, Kalima, I spent most of the day in bed sans computer, so at 10:00 tonight it finally struck me what the hollow feeling was that I had…I hadn’t even taken a cursory look at you MB today instead of a nice Saturday perusal! 4. Horrible possibility: if the geeks are right about Ohio, might they also be right about climate? And their explanation Daily Beast writer David Frum (@DavidFrum) examines the consequences of the 2012 election. Namely, if the statistical analysis so accurately predicted the winner of a tough swing state, might statistical analysis be correct on climate change predictions? Both caught the Republicans off guard because of the dislike of Math and Science. Ignorance isn’t really something that one goes around bragging about, is it? This one was my chuckle of my shortened day (so far.) 9. In the state Mitt Romney governed, it’s now legal to smoke medical marijuana at your same-sex wedding (so long as you buy health insurance). Does that one need any explanation? 😆 I’ll add though, Would that have happened under Mitt the Severe Conservative! 😉 Now off to read some more (or go back to bed. 😉 ) » Posted By bito On November 10, 2012 @ 9:49 pm Good Morning Kalima, cheers, Let’s all hope we have a large breath of relief along with a toast tonight and a grand celebration! » Posted By bito On November 6, 2012 @ 11:02 am Dear Kalima, I do hope that all is well with you today and you are just taking a well needed and deserved rest. I wish you well! I saw a short pierce on BBC Overnight early this morning about “unrest” in Spain and thought of you and your husband, hope he stays safe from all the rioting/unrest in the area where he is. See you soon! » Posted By bito On October 28, 2012 @ 2:38 pm Kalima, so sorry you are not feeling well and the combination that you have sounds especially icky. Take care …. and now off to read some of your world news that you toil over daily to give us so much knowledge. Now on to my reading. » Posted By bito On October 21, 2012 @ 10:10 am What a great symbol that needs to be known World-Wide! http://www.soca.gov.uk/images/stories/ukhtc/blue_blindfold.jpg » Posted By bito On August 26, 2012 @ 8:04 am Another great collection of world news Kalima, and wonderful opportunity to have the chance to read them! People missing the trivia, don’t know what their “missing.” 🙂 » Posted By bito On August 26, 2012 @ 7:33 am What a pleasant surprise to see the Morning Blog up, about and on it’s feet this morning! I hope those papers are real and not some Hawaiian forgeries! » Posted By bito On August 20, 2012 @ 9:17 am Sorry to hear that Kalima, I’ve heard rumors about those rough days. I think I’ll try some of those this week. 😉 » Posted By bito On July 15, 2012 @ 3:26 pm I’ll do one for you Kalima. I know you had an article on this the other day, but this is so hard to believe, I have to post it again. Here’s a bit more on it from France. Protege says Berlusconi best placed to win 2013 vote AFP – Flamboyant Italian ex-leader Silvio Berlusconi’s protege said on Sunday he believes his former boss is best placed to win the next general election set for early 2013. Speculation is running high that the billionaire tycoon, who stepped down in November amid a series of scandals as the economy crashed, is planning to announce his political comeback. » Posted By bito On July 15, 2012 @ 11:17 am Dear Kalima, hope everything is all right with you and yours,the day is especially kind to you and that your just playing hookey wile enjoying your day. What’s a five sided object with unequal angles called, well that’s my guess. » Posted By bito On July 15, 2012 @ 10:43 am Excuse me, Kalima, I seem to have something in my eyes making it difficult to type. » Posted By bito On May 27, 2012 @ 5:44 pm My thoughts are with you and the Welshman, Kalima and the candles are lit. » Posted By bito On May 25, 2012 @ 5:17 pm I’m fairly sure that any sober person, male or female would notice within seconds that they had their underpants on backwards. » Posted By bito On May 22, 2012 @ 7:39 am Rule #1 rule with crows, never ever feed them. They have great memories and they will be back! 🙂 I know I used to have one as a pet, smart, clever birds and a ton o’ fun. » Posted By bito On May 8, 2012 @ 8:53 pm What a bloody grand idea, Kalima! Freedom of information: my monstrous idea will keep corporate tyrants at bay Extending transparency laws to the private sector would make the likes of News International think twice before misbehaving http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/may/07/freedom-information-my-monstrous-proposal I can hear the uproar if that were proposed in the US, but it would certainaly keep them honest, eh? something else that would help in the US and that is not let corporations ‘write off’all their court costs and fines win lose or draw. Another great job today, Kalima! » Posted By bito On May 8, 2012 @ 8:40 pm Hello Baby Girl congratulations and please be safe on your trip home! » Posted By bito On May 8, 2012 @ 5:05 pm Made me look AB!

They so want to pin it on that it was one thing while the White House said it was something other and that it was a fluid situation constantly changing.

No really I do sympathize with you since my computer went all screwy just last week and it is frustrating when you can’t do any thing to fix it.
One of those night of off and on sleep, I think I ‘ll try again soon
~~~~~~~
Later.
Just took a look at the one titled “Tweets of the week: Election special” http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-20263697 and got some chuckles, Of the two I really liked this one was doubly aimed at the Republicans by an excommunicated Republican:
Your concerns and worries for your friends is greatly appreciated and you having to worry from across the pond takes an extra effort. I wish we could trade you for the election today for about a couple hundred thousand Romney supporters
Not only are you a supporter you know the issues better and can see the repercussions if the President isn’t reelected more than some people that live in the US.
Thanks Kalima for all you do, your MB has spent a tremendous amount of time alerting us of what a Mitt election would bring by pointing out what the Tory government and European’s austerity brings to the people. You gave us fair warning with plenty of examples.
I had a visitor the other day and they asked me about how and why I knew so much world news (not that I was smart, that I knew the news) and I told them it was because of your posting of MB everyday. It’s true, and that is why I try to get a glimpse of it daily. Thank you for your work, you build us a new watering hole every day, it’s up to us to take the drink!
I don’t know it this is traditional or not or if it’s even true, but I have seen original drawings of caricatures depicting the justices and what they were “really” wearing under their robes during original arguments! Some funny stuff! 😆
Blessings, Dear One.
Real people can’t. But wait aren’t corporations people?
Wow, that was a really sneaky move by Bibi, but then that seems to be the kinda guy he is.
