talkerFor those of you in Portland, OR who are wondering where The Stephanie Miller Show went, we have good news! You can now hear us LIVE every weekday from 6am to 9am Pacific on 970AM, The Talker!

mmfaEric Boehlert, Senior Fellow at Media Matters for America, calls in at 6:30am Pacific to talk about his recent article, “Glenn Beck and the Rise of Fox News’ Militia Media.”

leeRep. Barbara Lee (D-CA) calls in at 8:05am Pacific to talk about her recent trip to Cuba to meet with Fidel and Raul Castro.

A U.S. warship arrived before dawn today near a 28-foot lifeboat holding four pirates and the kidnapped captain of a U.S.-flagged cargo ship. Also nearby was the Maersk Alabama – which had been seized early yesterday off the Horn of Africa. All 20 of its remaining crew members are in good physical shape.

• Fresh off a trip to Cuba that included a visit with both Fidel and Raul Castro, members of the Congressional Black Caucus are lobbying President Obama to lift the nation’s longstanding Cuba embargo, and open up lines of communication with the Castros.

Vice President Joe Biden marked the return of the 18th Airborne Corps from Iraq at Fort Bragg, NC yesterday and told they troops that they left behind a country where “violence is being replaced by progress.”

President Obama returned to Washington, D.C. in the early hours of yesterday morning, bringing his lengthy debut on the world stage – including his first stop in a war zone as commander in chief – to a close.

Have a great rest of the day!

Okay you good people!

Excellent show, live blog and comments!

Hugs all around and we'll see ya in the morning.

Someone take the leftover donuts and muffins - they just get thrown out otherwise.

Ciao!

#397 - Wow. I'll have to watch and see.

Well that's it for another great show. Thanks Steph, Mooks and Stephfans.

See you Friday, I promise (especially you BrianMonster! Rowr!).

Okay, all...peace out, cub scouts!

See ya Friday ya bastids.

"tell me everything from the beginning."
"well, first the earth cooled. Then the dinosaurs came but they got too big and fat and turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. Then Prince Charles started wearing all of Di's clothes..."

AAARRRHHH. Can we set Beck and Limbaugh adrift off Somalia? :twisted:

Read what Barack said.

It wasn't about legalizing.

Facts are stupid things when you don't use the facts.

UGH!

Since I'madinnerjacket is against gay marriage (cause there are no gay people in Iran), does that mean that those who support DOMA are palling around with terrorists?

12. BREAKING: 19 Banks pass stress test!

Yaaaaarrrrrr, maties! Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!

Avast! The pirate grammar patrol are about.

"Hospital, what is it?"

"A big building with windows . . . "

Amy...he was. He had some of the best lines in the movie.

Johnny, what can you make of this?

Well, I can make a broach, or a hat, or pterydactyl.

Kill Reality Shows! They are ruining it for scripted dramas and comedies.

NoM:

there's no "dark clouds," except in your imaginations. I'm betting it was sunny outside where she was giving that speech.

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH

I AM a Massachusetts mother, and I can tell everyone right now, they are not teaching ANYTHING about being gay in the schools. In fact, at Lexington High School, a hate group was able to come and protest gay marriage outside the school. The high school had a couple of assemblies to help the kids deal with them -- as in, don't let them get to you, just ignore them, and only talk with them if you agree with them. No need to try to talk them out of it or start an argument. Incident went off without a hitch. Group was ignored and avoided.

Using Palin's logic -
I just "stayed" with my future-husband, I didn't "live" with him.

380-I don't mind sharing. :lol:

#377 I think the guy who said that line in Airplane! was gay. Stephen Stucker died of AIDS in the 80s.

All I can say is tramps like us, baby we were born to run....

#374 - You broke it, you own it.

Palin was smoking speed with the kids - she knew sex was happening.

The defense of marriage website has a banner with the picture of an older couple, definately too old to reproduce. No marriage for them!

A storm is coming...

Auntie Em! Auntie Em! It's a twister... It's a twister!

subversive gay activity - gay rebellion is apparently all ahead full.

could've been a straight guy with a good sense of reality too (to send out the tapes)

that guy sounded nadless

Sadly, I didn't write #352, I just linked to it on Facebook.
I had typed it, Britney's name would be spelled phonetically like her momma intended.

#361 Tony, don't you know that marriages are all connected? The 50 percent divorce rate does nothing to threaten John and Jane Doe's relationship, but having Tim and Tom next door married would undermind and damage Jane and John's relationship.

Why no "It's Raining Men" in their GATHERING STORM soundtrack? That would make me afraid.

The LA LGBT center is holding a "project pushback" video contest for the best response to the NOM ad. http://tinyurl.com/pushbackvideo .

Obama is tap-dancing all over the right-wing spittle-spewing exploding heads. HA HA

demdame - some of that warning was snark ;-)

"If you don’t like gay marriage, don’t have one."

ding ding ding!

It really is that simple.

*high fives*

And an angel gets their wings for every RWNJ who's head explodes.

Amy, i love that. I'm posting it!

#357,

It is a very touchy time until they have an idea what the cause is, I'm sure they don't want to make it worse.

Can she see an allergist soon? (I hope so) then it will all make more sense.

#356 RWNJ's heads are "esploding"...

Obama is a Muslim... who attended a Christian church with a crazy minister... who likes the Jews... (KABOOM!)

If you don't like gay marriage, don't have one. Why is this so difficult to understand? Are people really that stupid?

#356 Of course's he's anti-Jewish, all Muslims are. :smile:
