Displaying 151 To 180 Of 869 Comments Friday Music Thread – Amazing Voice, How Sweet The Sound As always, I’m late to the game, but here’s the angelic, gravid Emmylou outdoing the Beatles. » Posted By chasethis On March 25, 2011 @ 8:20 pm BigDogMom–You read my mind. » Posted By chasethis On March 25, 2011 @ 8:14 pm Marion–Another great post. The republicans can’t seem to make up their collective minds: He acted without consulting us, but he acted too late, too! And, he’s not swaggering and spitting like a cowboy, therefore, weak. Kucinich the Condundrum, as always. » Posted By chasethis On March 23, 2011 @ 1:59 pm Some Not Very Strong Arguments Against Action in Libya KevenSeven–great rundown. Number one strikes a particularly strong chord with me. I just finished a p.r. project involving former fighter pilots (now trainers) from Navy, AF, etc. They are fascinating personalities. I had to interview about twelve of them for the project. As a life long quasi-anti-military person, I gained a HUGE respect for these people. And, it seemed to me that they are just as you described–committed to the mission–which is most frequently humanitarian. The #5 argument pisses me off, as well. Geez. Have I become a hawk? » Posted By chasethis On March 22, 2011 @ 9:21 pm We Are Aiding and Abetting the Republicans Marion–Very compelling piece, however I had to stop reading at this: “Since then, Congressman Anthony Weiner has gone on record as saying the President had no values.” That is inaccurate. Weiner said- “On our side is this weird squishy affirmative sense of what government should do and how we’re opposed to this cut and that cut, rather than saying, ‘Here are the things: Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, environment and education. We’re not cutting those. Those are off the table. That’s non-negotiable,'” said Weiner, adding, “We haven’t really done that very well. That’s because the president fundamentally — he’s not a values guy. He wants to try to get the best deal for the American people and that’s virtuous in its own right, but it becomes very difficult to make a strategy. There’s been much greater global strategy thinking on [progressive media] outlets, frankly, than at 1600 Pennsylvania.” I know I’m parsing words here, but it’s what we do. In context, “not a values guy” is not the same as “having no values.” » Posted By chasethis On March 21, 2011 @ 9:07 pm Of Thee I Sing : a response to What IS leadership and what kind of leader do WE want? For America–Oh, my. What a beautiful piece. Sappy as it sounds, I admire your work. And I am still hopeful. » Posted By chasethis On March 19, 2011 @ 6:37 pm Friday Music Thread – Comedy Tonight Forgot to check the damn box. Again. » Posted By chasethis On March 18, 2011 @ 9:52 pm PW–Calling Nick Danger and Porgie, Tirebiter. » Posted By chasethis On March 18, 2011 @ 9:50 pm KT–You’re really goooooooooood at this. » Posted By chasethis On March 18, 2011 @ 9:47 pm Redemption–this reduced me to tears. Again. » Posted By chasethis On March 18, 2011 @ 9:45 pm HH–I have never seen this. Brilliant. » Posted By chasethis On March 18, 2011 @ 9:39 pm Good God Almighty! Lily von Schtupp? Firesign Theater? Jonathon Winters? Bill Hicks? Richard Pryor? I cannot compete. That said, this song always cracks me up and my sister has requested that we sing it at her funeral–followed by “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.” Here it is with lyrics.
» Posted By chasethis On March 18, 2011 @ 9:34 pm Invite For Collaboration Part 4 I hesitate to bring up HP posters by name here, but it might be nice if Rich Misty could address #12. Am I trippin’? » Posted By chasethis On March 19, 2011 @ 7:52 pm Adonai–When are you not? We shouldn’t feel guilty about playing at the HP {spit}. It can be fast moving, rip roaring fun. Then I come here for some thoughtful sanity. » Posted By chasethis On March 19, 2011 @ 7:42 pm Adonai–I think I saw you there and was wondering if it was you. What’s your moniker there? We could cause some trouble. I love trouble. » Posted By chasethis On March 19, 2011 @ 7:30 pm The Battle of Thermopylae: How Democracy Was Saved Jesus Christ! More later. » Posted By chasethis On March 16, 2011 @ 9:32 pm It’s Official: Huffington Post Is Now Out-Drudging Drudge Spent the morning over at HP [spit] toying with the trolliage over TX teachers demonstrating in huge numbers at our state capitol. I got the PPov notice of this article in my inbox and went back to HP {spit} to look for Breitbart. I guess in all these years, I’d never scrolled to the bottom of the page–until today. Anyone ever notice this? I cannot stop laughing.

For at least ten minutes. Paybacks are hell.
