Cheers all! Thanks for answering my questions.

Have a great day, everyone!

Glen Beck, Klown Ass
no Sparta, not even half Sparta
have a great afternoon, hope to see you tomorrow

Goodbye Blogrockers! (see #6) Have a Wednesday!

The word "pho" is pronounced "fuh".

Steph Stephy Stephcha you scamp
Goddess of Wit Beauty and Humor
you are saving the airwaves, you and Rachel and Randi

When will this whole Glen Beck thing end? Glen, you must have graduated top of your class at clown college.

can we get to a half Sparta today? at least?

Is it just me or is most of whuts on the TeeVee und radio Mind
Kontrol Propaganda hypnotizing a pretty large segment of the
public into going along with this whole sick thing we're trapped in?
rhetorical question o'course. A good portion of the public has
been reduced to Sheeple. They still listen to RW Tooles and like
Rethugs who are killing them...

Why so slow today? You can't all STILL be in the Ballon Boy chat room?

133 yes, like Oliver the Frangela thing isn't much discussed...
but they don't appear any more. I still like them though.
I guess it's good nobody is airing any dirty laundry in public.

Momma keeps fooling Hal, he tries to see her underpants, but
she tricks him and doesn't wear any...

uh oh, No Leonidas Cup will be awarded today
whut wuz Jim's bit earlier, Ceasar Millan the Coochie Wisperer?
brilliant! BRILLIANT!

Wow ...you guys know it all! Did Steph and the mooks have a falling out with Frangela? They are never on anymore and they won't say why on their facebook page.

Yikes, we're gonna strain to get to SPA

Crotch-blocked? Is like a Beaver-Baffler?

You keep saying "that's so gay" and Wanda Sykes is going to burst in and slap you silly.

116
Steph had some family issues to deal with and decided it was best if Oliver was placed with another family. Must have been really hard to do that.

When Stephanie is not in LA (like last week) most of the time they put the top-of-the-hour chatter as Steph & the Mooks plan the next hour's material (otherwise known as "making sausage") on the live stream.

If marriage is so important to society, why can't priest get married?

It's pretty much an FCC regulation now that we ask you what you think about Balloon Boy.

124 Hal is immune to Steph's gay ray by playing a gay guy on TeeVee

121 roflmao

Oliver... drunk driving. that's whut got him in trouble. Tried
to jump the median at the wrong angle/speed... teach him for
driving drunk

Stephy had no choice. At least Freddy can hold his liquor and
avoid swerving in front of cops...

Careful hal. You'll get a disease.

http://www.spike.com/video/insider-trading-on/2807...

the smart money knew 9/11 was gonna happen. it also knew
JFK was gonna get hit. those were the two biggest days
in history for 'put options'... it's the twin humps under
the carpet. clear proof.

this video does a great job of spelling it out. forget the
buildings impossible falling, all the other evidence, this
is the real Tell.

I must be psychic...

I predict another iPhone picture by ProducerChris of Steph and Hal together.

118. :lol: :lol: She shot him, but it was his poor driving skills. He couldn't jump the median in the SUV to take the shortcut to Liquor Barn.

Thanks! Second question.... Sometimes they mention listening live means we hear their chit chat during breaks but all I ever hear are commercials. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?

Question:

Wouldn't it be counter to the "Gay Agenda" to raise their kids gay, ensuring that there are no more gays because they won't have children? :)

116 Oliver piddled on the rug one too many times so Stephy shot him.
No! he was placed with another family. It may have had to do with
him being unable to live with another dog in the house, Steph has
never been entirely clear.

I posted this a while back, it's from a New Yorker article
on Why the Dreyfus trial in France matters now. It's very
germane re why the Rethugs are so whiney, delusional and bitter.

"The trouble was that, like most happy endings, the happy
ending was not the end. The good guys won in a way that only
made the bad guys worse. As with Watergate, the immediate
outcome of the affair gave a misleading impression of
unanimity; in truth, while the good guys thought the other
guys had absorbed it as a lesson, they had merely resented
it as a defeat.

Though Dreyfus won his place back, in 1908 he was the victim
of an assassination attempt by a follower of Charles Maurass,
who had succeeded Édouard Drumont as the leading authoritarian
anti-Semite in France.

In any modernized country, the backward-looking party will
always tend toward resentment and grievance. The key is to
keep the conservatives feeling that they are an alternative
party of modernity.

(This was Disraeli’s great achievement, as it was, much later,
de Gaulle’s.) When the conservative party comes to see itself
as unfairly marginalized, it becomes a party of pure reaction,
which is what happened to the French right after Dreyfus.
Instead of purging the anti-Semites, people on the right
decided to rally behind them. They came to hate the idea of
the Republic itself.

So Damned Relevant! Thom Hartmann said yesterday how the nation
needs a Republican Party purged of the loonies, as well as a
Dem party purged of the Corpratists. Or as I would say, the
Coprophiles.

So what happened to Step's puppy Oliver??

Oh my! It's a gay!

a few of the Republicans For Rape:
Mitch McConnell douchebag
John Ensign -- belongs in jail
David Vitter -- hookers n' diapers
Lindsey Graham douchebag
Jeff Sessions douchebag
Richard Shelby -- wanted to kill American, Union Auto companies
John McCain 'nuff said
Saxby Chambliss -- Called Max Cleland unpatriotic
Bob Corker -- wanted to kill American, Union Auto companies
scumbags all.

:lol: Noam was a good guess

Kerick should be signing up for Linked-In soon.

I need to hear Dick Morris crashing through the floorboards.

Caribou! Shout out, ayuh!

Caribou Jane?

Is 'gay adjacent' affordable, yet tastefully appointed?

When is the Stephanie Miller News Team going to a White House presser?

That's how she likes it, Hal.

Defense Department Opposed Franken's Anti-Rape Amendment

Huffpo on top of these things...

#43: Didn't Jesse Ventura use make his press pack wear passes reading MEDIA JACKAL? The White House should make the press pass out to FOX "NEWS", FAUX NEWS, or something - I'm sure Rahm has some choice terms.

SERIAL MILLER" is what the London tabloids like to
call the 27-year-old actress Sienna Miller, in honor of
her long and well-documented romantic history. Her flings
have included Jude Law, Daniel Craig, James Franco and
most recently the married oil heir Balthazar Getty, with
whom she was photographed topless and in a sailor hat.

"TOPLESS IN A SAILOR HAT!" Steph never told us anything about
her younger sister...

91, 94 Don Draper seems like a nice guy when the series starts,
you identify with him. But more and more you see he's a creep.
It's a great show, love some Christina Hendricks... now That's A
Woman with some curves! sorry Momma, you know my heart still
belongs to you

95 Yes, I hope the killer or killers are brought to justice.
That's bad territory to be any kind of government worker.

91. Eye candy extraordinaire Don Draper can do anything he wants. We're lucky he even cheats and lies for us. Love that show.

Hi MookenBloggsters! What's going on here? Not much, huh? By now you should be 2/3 of sparta..

Watching the early issues of Mad Men had me developing a sympathetic cigarette cough..

On the same AMC, I've been watching the Breaking Bad series. Last week they were cooking up massive meth in the New Mexico desert, and had to make a battery out of chemicals on hand to get back to town..
