Good morning and Happy Fridee, everyone! Still can’t play today. I have meetings all morning. So glad that the weekend is almost here.
So, have we entered Bizarro World? Yesterday, Orpah had ‘The Biggest Stars of Reality TV’ as her guests. Today, Steph has Dr. Maya Angelou. Strange days, indeed (most peculiar, Mama!)
Hope Steph doesn’t go too highbrow. Otherwise, it’ll be “Highbrow, highbrow, uni-brow”
Have a great show and a great weekend!
Morning shāf…all…
So Maya Angelou is in today. The SMS is getting a tad highbrow.
Did Steph put on her best prom dress & tiara?
The Daily Show finally weighed in last night on “the war on Fox News” with a thorough clip-filled skewering. Their website doesn’t have a direct link available, but go to their homepage and choose the second new video, “For Fox Sake!”: http://www.thedailyshow.com/ . Be sure to listen for an unscripted aside by Jon Stewart at 3:20 of the sadly untrademarked phrase “What the Fox”.
“War on Fox News”. Crock. O’. Shite.
Oh Yes Cal Thomas. The ‘war’ on Fox is just like the Cold War. When McCarthy was holding anti-American hearings and destroying careers & lives through innuendo & lies. Like Fox!
#3 That was so awesome! “Fox News is ‘who the f*ck are these guys?’”
Jon is brilliant!
Goood morning all!
It looks like I’m the “department” today. So I’m in an “isolation” chamber this morning, then it’s off to the “Fortress of Non-Solitude” where it’s being torn apart to remove mold from the walls.
#7: “remove mould”?
8
yeah, mold. nice black yucky mold.
There have been problems with the HVAC out there for a long time especially in the winter, so I’m sure there was plenty of times when there was condensation on the walls.
Those walls are now walled off with plastic and are vented outside until the stuff can be removed. Supposedly it’s ok for us to be out there. There’s just no room to move around since everything is in the middle of the floor.
#9: but I’m assuming that the mould removers are in full protection suits but, yeah, it’s ok for you to work in the middle of it?
Mornin.
Wow, Maya Angelou. Do you think she actually knows what show she’s calling?
#12: maybe she’ll tell us to “riiiiiiise up”?
G’morning, gang!
Shout-out to the peanut gallery on the live-blog! Go Shaf!
10
Supposedly, yeah it’s ok. I suppose the removers will be in suits inside the plastic “walls”. It’s not like we spend 40 hours a week out there. Until I was out there Monday I hadn’t been out there in 3 weeks and then only for a couple of hours.
high corn, low corn, unicorn.
I am a bit confused. Does the fact that Lieberman has decided to block the public option with the Republicans mean we cannot bring a health care bill to the floor? How do we get past his move?
Hiya, Bloggoes!
I will not be on the blog much today, but I had to come on and say…
1.) Wow! Maya Angelou classin’ up the joint! I hope Steph can refrain from any fart jokes.
2.) Happy day before Hallowe’en! I hope everybody has crazy fun party plans!
3.) Just wanna say that I love you bloggoe kids.
Morning
12 – You figure a Maya Angelou might not appreciate a good fart joke?
Well again if the Democrats have any guts they will do a version of the “nuclear option”. Or force the Rethugs to actually fillibuster.
After stripping Loserman of any committee appointments.
18
Heya madduane!
Well, no plans here. Wife is working (YAY) both Saturday and Sunday. We aren’t partying types anyway.
The “nuclear” option can only be triggered via vote. Doesn’t Liebermans stance keep that from happening as well?
19: that’s a good question. do we really know the source of the wind beneath the wings of morning ? – do we truly know why the caged bird screams ?
#17 we get past Liverman’s threat by threatening him back, and possibly bribing him. They can threaten to take away his committee chairmanship, and all his seniority. On Olbermann it was suggested that they could threaten to eliminate the submarine base in Connecticut too. They could also bribe him by spending more money in Connecticut.
22
I would think a simple majority is sufficient.
#15: as long as you’re safe. If you’re not: sue.
26
koff koff gag thud
Oooh! What do we call Glenn & Bill? Billenn? Gill??
such a fine writer…. i remember that time at lunch, there were actual rainbows and radiance streaming off her sketch pad while ms angelou was composing a brief narrative about the conflicted impulses of the pioneers…. thoe i must admit i was taken aback when ms angelou shouted “yo mutha—— i wants so mo iced tea !!”
21: “…Wife is working (YAY)…”
ah, so no pesky repair bill then, just fresh batteries.
26
Seriously, there’s plenty of air movement out there. I’m not really worried. It got addressed as soon as it was discovered.
#29: athough when she says it it’s got class.
27 – was that the sound of Glenn Beck in O’Reilly’s sex dungeon?
Funny, “bottoms” usually don’t rape and kill young girls…
33
Like back in 1990?
24: i think it’s legal to toss liquidy poo into lieberman’s lunchbox. – not sure thoe. – any of you have wikipedia on your email machines ?
22, 25, I think you would only need a majority. It’s based on an opinion Nixon wrote, I think when he was Vice President and President of the Senate at the time. He wrote that the filibuster is unconstitutional. The constitution only provides for a super-majority for treaty confirmations and constitutional amendments. If they tried it, I’m sure it would end up in the SCOTUS. I don’t know if they would even take the case though.
Actually Bill ditched Geraldo because his moustache tickled.
25: “I would think a simple majority is sufficient.”
that’s exactly what has often bugged me about the majority: they tend to be so simple.
Has anyone heard this? I read it on a message board with a mix of righties and lefties and had never heard it before. Wondered if it is a right wing scare tactic.
“If they are immunizing with the nasal form of either flu vaccine, the recipient will shed the live virus for up to 3 weeks following administration.”
I wrote that!
28: “hey baby, get off my phone, and get my ringtone up”.
19/31: coincidence ?
33: “Funny, “bottoms” usually don’t rape and kill young girls… ”
may i borrow tou later as an expert witness ?
Uncle Chuckles – if someone attacks you because you’re a Christian then yes that falls under the hate-crime action.
Morning mooks!
chuck norris can genuflect and roundhouse a mincing nancyboy at the same time. amen.
I think the Dems should implement the nuclear option. The Rethugs are abusing the filibuster. They are using it on every thing they possibly can. The Dems will never do that. Even when they get in the minority again they won’t abusing that way. Also the things the Dems will pass will be so popular that the Rethugs will not be able to eliminate them even when they get back in power someday. The things the Rethugs pass will not be popular. They will be easy to repeal when the Dems get a majority again.
44: perhaps if the JWs would switch to a publication called “allowed to sleep”, there would be no need to attack anybody who self-identifies as “christian”.
Elvira’s schedule of course must be hectic. It would’ve been fun to have Momma and her try to vie for Fugelsang’s (even better Hal’s) attention.
“Free and open to everyone”?
THAT’S SOCIALISM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i’m really happy for maya angelou, and i’m a let her finish, but david laflamme (no relation) had the greatest caged bird of all time.
god hates swedes who are lutefisking.
Carving pumpkins is a satanic ritual
calls to mind post 273 of yesterday…. an excerpt, and revealing glimpse at schlaffly’s homopedia….. and brilliant:
From Conservapedia
Poe’s law is often used to mock conservatives and fundamentalists, based on its implicit assertion that fundamentalists and conservatives are so absurd as to be indistinguishable from parody. However, there is a fundamental flaw in this assertion. One might as well argue that genuine works of art are indistinguishable from cheap knockoffs, because some people are unable to distinguish between the two. Clearly, the cause of the mistake is not that the genuine article is no better than a mockery; rather, the cause of the mistake is that some people lack the critical thinking skills and/or experience to differentiate the two — particularly in cases when an artist (or a parodist) goes to special efforts to emulate the genuine article.
do not anger keanu reeves.
Does sex with a demon count as adultery?
Actually the whole thing about pumpkins outside your house on Halloween is that the church did come around to your house for alms….and if you gave you got to put a pumpkin outside your house.
Then if the thugs that worked for the church came by later, if your house didn’t have a pumpkin in front they would take their revenge…even to the point of burning down the house.
That’s also what’s behind “trick or treat”….
57 – meant to type the church came around on All Saints Day for those alms.
actually it may be amusing to send keanu to go do some time-released cursing at schlaffly, and watch poe’s law come to full fruition.
Are time-released curses oral or suppositories?
56: is the demon married ? (hi, sweetie)
What about oral sex with a demon?
Ooh, RWLM is getting exercised now!
i never believed i would be getting any SS money…. until i heard diarrherun saying that the system was going bankrupt.
oh Stephanie you and your right wing love muffins
been absent y’all… hi. On top of everything else, I just went out and got H1N1 and Strep. Hooray for the progress of we are making so far.
Jason is everything you need to know about Fox News viewers
60: start watching glenn beck. oral suppositories are not rare.
(they’re generally not well-done either.)
wow!
I’m wondering how Rachael Maddow feels about Momma getting Maya Angelou?
62: heironymous bush ? yummo !
68: I guess it depends on how flexible you are. I’m sure Beck is completely capable of kissing his own ass.
Hmmm…. he starts off complaining that they only let on idiotic conservatives who can’t make a coherent argument.. then goes on to prove it by showing he is an idiot who can’t make a coherent argument.
Sort of like when Republicans say government doesn’t work, then get in and prove it.
71 — the sixth Marx brother (or maybe their sister?)
70: retaliation with quentin crisp dressed as a spackle-lantern.
there would of course, be very probing interview questions.
72 — he’s already wearing it for a hat…
#73: it’s because they just take things as fact no matter what. They don’t think. You could tell them that the sky is green and they’d accept it no questions asked.
74: i’d be willing to give yummo marxism a try. i’m sure it means something like “pizza for everybody”.
77: to a lot of animals, the sky IS green. rick santorum may go along with it.
To the right-wing love-muffins:
Pledge to uphold the principles of a socialism-free society
I, ________________________, do solemnly swear to uphold the principles of a socialism-free society and heretofore pledge my word that I shall strictly adhere to the following:
I will complain about the destruction of 1st Amendment Rights in this country, while I am duly being allowed to exercise my 1st Amendment Rights.

I will foreswear the time-honored principles of fairness, decency, and respect by screaming unintelligible platitudes regarding tyranny, Nazi-ism, and socialism at public town halls. Also.
I pledge to eliminate all government intervention in my life. I will abstain from the use of and participation in any socialist goods and services including but not limited to the following:
* Social Security
* Medicare/Medicaid

If a veteran of the government-run socialist US military, I will forego my VA benefits and insist on paying for my own
medical care.
I will not tour socialist government buildings like the Capitol in Washington, D.C.
I pledge to never take myself, my family, or my children on a tour of the following types of socialist locations, including but

* The Grand Canyon
* The socialist World War II and Vietnam Veterans Memorials

I will urge my Member of Congress and Senators to forego their government salary and government-provided healthcare.
I will oppose and condemn the government-funded and therefore socialist military of the United States of America.
I will boycott the products of socialist defense contractors such as GE, Lockheed-Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman,
General Dynamics, Raytheon, Humana, FedEx, General Motors, Honeywell, and hundreds of others that are paid by our socialist government to produce goods for our socialist army.
I will protest socialist security departments such as the Pentagon, FBI, CIA, Department of Homeland Security, TSA,
Department of Justice and their socialist employees.
Upon reaching eligible retirement age, I will tear up my socialist Social Security checks.
Upon reaching age 65, I will forego Medicare and pay for my own private health insurance until I die.

G’morning blog-rockers!
Zach’s not here, man!!
chris, run out and get ms angelou some “mo iced tea”. she’ll laff her ass off !
i know why the caged bird cant fly.
I am so proud of us. We all listened attentively (well almost all) and no one farted the whole time.
“mickey rooney was ill, the day the earth stood still….”
hey gang, let’s make a movie ! – keanu just called back, and he’s hyped about my proposal that he play an algonquin chief who issues a time-released curse on whitey. – i think the possibility of algonquin round table pizza is what sold the deal…. anybody out there have mad rollerskate skills ?
“Jim Ward of Sparta”? WTF?
http://therevivaltour.com/musicians.html
I have to leave the liveblog for the week. This here has been a crazy week for shipping, and the fun now continues.
Love you, Bloggoes!
Buh Bye!
86: well OF COURSE we listened attentively. there’s something out there called a pop-quiz. KEANU ! – PUT DOWN THAT ICED TEA, AND TELL US WHY YOU SHOOT THE HOSTAGE EVERY TIME THE CAGED BIRD SINGS.
89: take lots of astroglide !!
….. uh, yes,
yes i did mean in case of pirates.
OK, I’m off to the fortress. Last time I was there the intertubes were out, so this might be it for me today.
My box of parts arrived this week, so I can start my antique TV restoration project tomorrow. That will keep me busy for a long time.
Have a Happy Halloween all! Go Phillies!

eric cantor is implicitly on board. statement from yesterday:
“i think all of us know that competition WOULD lower prices”.
congress is like hal visiting steph; the boner will always give props.
How many pages was the PATRIOT act? How many days did people have to read that before it was forced through?
I got this from the American Library Association yesterday:
Call now to reform the PATRIOT Act!
Call your member in the House of Representatives and urge her/him to reform the USA PATRIOT Act now! Please ask your representative to co-sponsor the USA PATRIOT Amendments Act of 2009 (H.R. 3845), introduced by Rep. Conyers (MI-14) and others on October 20, 2009.
Mr. Conyers and the other cosponsors should be thanked for introducing H.R. 3845. To access the bill text, please click here:
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/D?d111:1:./temp/~bd0RLD:@@@P|/bss/111search.html
A mark-up in the House Judiciary Committee is currently scheduled for Wednesday, November 4. Your calls are urgently needed before this mark-up! Call your individual representative’s office or the U.S. Capital switchboard at (202) 224-3121.
BACKGROUND: Three PATRIOT Act provisions are set to expire on December 31, 2009. This is the best chance we have had in the last eight years to get significant reforms to Section 215, often called the “library provision,” and to national security letters (NSLs).
The USA PATRIOT Amendments Act of 2009 protects constitutional speech and privacy rights by:
* Amending the NSL statute to ensure that the government only obtains financial, communication and credit records of people believed to be terrorists or spies;
* Requiring the government to convince a court that a national security gag order is necessary; and
* Ensuring that Section 215 does not authorize collection of library and bookstore records if they contain individualized information on the patron.
Library grassroots advocacy efforts have helped lead to the introduction of this strong Conyers bill to bring balance back to our civil liberties while allowing law enforcement to fight terrorist threats. We must do everything we can to ensure that the House of Representatives passes H.R. 3845, a bill that can lead to genuine reform of the deeply-flawed USA PATRIOT Act.
This is especially so because the Senate is set to pass a bill with far, far weaker reforms. Also, as expected, there is significant opposition to these reforms, including from the White House, the Department of Justice and the House Intelligence Committee. Many calls from library supporters and others will be needed to overcome this opposition. Call now with the following message:
THE MESSAGE:
* Pass H.R. 3845 to protect reader privacy and other First Amendment activities in libraries and bookstores;
* Reform Section 215 and national security letters so that a higher legal standard is required to obtain these types of orders;
* Ensure and maintain the legal right to challenge gag orders and require judicial review and reassessment to continue such gag orders;
* Continue the required audits and public reports so that Congress and the public can assess the impact of these laws; and
* Maintain the sunsets so that there can be regular Congressional and public oversight to protect against abuses of law enforcement powers.
Caller, that’s only true under pessimistic economic assumptions.
#98, and they’re not IOUs, they’re treasury bonds.
i read somewhere that the famous bill-smackdown sound effect was not just about being a drame queen, rather that the boner was merely killing a kitten. anybody know if this is true ?
how can anybody not love halloween ? – those are the finest tartan assless chaps with matching stetson i’ve seen yet.
will uncle chuckles be giving christmas warnings ?
“loosed” = lovingly goosed
#101, the most disturbing thing about your comment is that same joke was told at pipe band practice last night.
Uncle Chuckles says watch out for those loosed women at Halloween.
Note to Trinity Broadcasting: there are no such thing as demons, other than your boss Pat.
102 – of course, because anything you do on Xmas that isn’t in praise of Jesus is of the devil because it’s distracting you from what’s really important…praising Jesus.
So Unkle Chucky,
Christians made Christmas from pagan traditions to sweeten the pagans to the new faith but Samhain is evil?
i get that a lot, which is strange, because i’m in a valley on the mountains, in a forest in the middle of a desert. technically i’m a highlander, but the garb around here is never entirely outside the orbit of “toastydude” influence. – we have a free and slightly overpriced weekly pulication (reno news and review) which recently published a list of winners by popular vote, of “BEST OF RENO”. – it’s always gratifyingly nonsensical…. “best place for a public tryst: toastydude” / “best place to propose: toastydude” / “best place to break-up: toastydude” …. this is silly because toastydude happens at black rock desert, about 100 miles away.
#92 trojanrabbit:
Canty Samhain! main th’ beasts an’ monsters lae ye be! an’ john boehner looks loch a ghoolish tattiebogle!
to clarify, 109 refers to 104.
106: is carrie ann moss the product of keanu and rachel maddow ?
Did Steph say that that thing about Halloween is from Pat Robertson’s website? Because I can’t find anything on his site – and all I found on CBN.com was this http://www.cbn.com/spirituallife/OnlineDiscipleship/Halloween/halloween_Watt05.aspx
108: evil squabbles, but it dont fall down.
#111: no but I’m sure that Rachael would like to “product” with Carrie Ann Moss.
Hell I’D like to “product” with Carrie Ann Moss!
Your daily Gaelic pronunciation guide:
“Samhain” is not “sam-hayn”. It’s “sah-wuhn”.
Knowing insurance companies (and most corporations) if they’re forced to pay hospitals more, they’ll just start buying up hospitals.
110: a kudos upon you for sharing that closing post yesterday; it was so excellent that i re-posted it (54). – thoe, as i examine post 110, i must recommend that you look into something called “spellcheck”. – i know you’re trying to tell us something about tater salad and tae-bo, but it’s not entirely clear.
112: i believe the roberton website they were reading from was “halloween warnings”. – anybody know for certain ?
#109: “we have a free and slightly overpriced weekly pulication (reno news and review)”
Why don’t you write them a nice letter asking politely for a refund?
no ! dont go into that doghouse !
that book, “to serve bird with cranberries and gravy”,
- IT’S A COOKBOOK !!!
From Robert Andrews web site:
“Rob does not keep an apartment in Washington, D.C. but instead commutes each day by train to be closer to his family and constituents.”
WOW!
120: muttering and grousing are more amenable to my intrinsic skill set. i figure i can eventually parlay these talents into a career as a curmudgeon.
122: they’re both family and constituents ?
is this a latter-day saints thing ?
Hey there. I missed Maya Angelou. She was speaking at a college here the other day and I heard NOTHING about it in my classes so I missed it. I was pissed when I read she had been here in the student news.
Sometimes news should be prescient.
#9—No way in Hades would I be working in a room with plastic-walled-off mold. Better check to see if they are violating any OSHA rules.
gary paxtons of talent.
122 – see us Democrats…using Socialist things like the rail system!
#80—Is that going around the Internets?
127: well, if it’s good enuff for michael steele…
Happy Halloween! Now you can all go f**k yourselves with pointy hats.
130 – what brought THAT on?
According to FiredogLake, the public option could be open to everyone – including employees of large companies – by 2015.
#130 That is a Cheneyesque pumpkin.
sorry about that. dick showed up unexpectedly.
it’s possible that maya angelou was on the show earlier…. thoe one can never rule out jim ward.
it is finally Friday…
#130, it’s Cheney! Get ‘im!
“Row-butt sex”? That’s new.
#123: Same here, I’m going for old fogey, but just “fogey” doesn’t quite cut it. Curmudgitude must pay well though, judging by the state of the fourth estate.
I dunno, I’ve had bad sex that was actually bad.
138: duh ! why do you think covert bailey was being covert with that health-rider ?
140: you’re allowed to take off the bagpipe once in a while.
waiting for the #@&!@ gravatar to load
RE: #119
Huff-Po has stated that the blog has been taken down. It has been republished here.
The original link exists, proving that it was psoted at one time. (Thanks for titling your pages, instead of just numbering your stories, CBN!)
Also, at least one Freeper admits to having seen the post, and quotes from it directly.
now, to celebrate halloween, keep the blindfold on, and taste these worms on a shingle. (pasta la pizza.)
so did Jim do his Maya Angelou yet?
Halloween = vampyre sex. coffins & lots of fluids.
Did I miss Maya???
That was probably the *best* ‘Highlander’ joke I’ve ever heard.
Speaking of Halloween – who caught this weeks episode of “Castle”?
Just watched it last night. Best. Episode. Ever.
Oily Taint really brings out the “wither” in judges. Also the snark.
Don’t conservatives usually say that they want to put an end to frivolous lawsuits? How does one explain Orly?
#122, #127: “Rob does not keep an apartment in Washington, D.C. but instead commutes each day by train to be closer to his family and constituents.”
- how Bidenesque!
(Train travel is European and gay
)
What no one is dressed as a box of wine?
get the shotgun, chris
144 – thanks!
#134: Hate when that happens. Especially getting shot in the face.
Bravo!!
Holy crap that The Danger of Celebrating Halloween article is shite. My fave part:
The word “occult” means “secret.” The danger of Halloween is not in the scary things we see but in the secret, wicked, cruel activities that go on behind the scenes. These activities include:
Sex with demons
Orgies between animals and humans
Animal and human sacrifices
Sacrificing babies to shed innocent blood
Rape and molestation of adults, children and babies
Revel nights
Conjuring of demons and casting of spells
Release of “time-released” curses against the innocent and the ignorant.
Another abomination that goes on behind the scenes of Halloween is necromancy, or communication with the dead. Séances and contacting spirit guides are very popular on Halloween, so there is a lot of darkness lurking in the air.
#157: ah Hay!!
bleh
The elevator to bring all the equipment up to the test deck at the Fortress of non-Solitude is out of order. Fortunately one of the mold-removers helped me get the stuff upstairs.
And so is the rest-room, so I have to drive back to the main building to use the facilities.
Stand a Fox blond on her head and you get a Brunette with bad breath!!!
how do you get a dick to leave?
“Also, at least one Freeper admits to having seen the post, and quotes from it directly.”
I looked at that thread…even those people at Free Republic are making fun of that woman and the Christians…
“Juicy Hillary tidbits” – did I hear that right?
It’s true the Freepers making fun of her… But I figured linking to that would prove it isn’t something fabricated by a left-wing conspiracy smear attack. Always find a source from an opposing point of view, just to helps prove your point better.
WWWFDD*? While driving to and fro, repeat over and over: “Hey! I’m getting paid for this!”
Not too fast now!
(*Wally from Dilbert)
166 – I appreciate that. Just cool to see that there are some people who are even too bat-$#!^ crazy for them
#167: Sorry, that was referring to episode #161, in which trojanrabbit has to drive to get to a rest-room. Hilarity ensues…

I thought Catholicsm was a third world religion because they don’t use birth control. rimshot
Actually, the Catholic League has 200,000 people on its mailing list, but most are probably there for the newsletter, which is apparently at best tangentially connected to Donahue’s activities.

I can’t get the test PC back up and running. Something must have happened in the move from the main building to the Fortress. And of course on Fridays there’s no one to turn to for help.

Okay, I think I agree with Steve King. But Rush is racist-offensive, Fergie is trashy-offensive.
