LiveBlog for Friday, November 6, 2009
• Rep. John Sarbanes (D-MD) calls in at 6:30am Pacific to talk about health care reform and the economy.
• Christian Weller, economist with The Center for American Progress, calls in at 7:05am Pacific to give us an update on the economy.
• John Fugelsang joins us in studio at 8:05am Pacific for “Fridays With Fugelsang.”
• Rep. Eliot Engel (D-NY) calls in at 8:30am Pacific to talk about health care reform, the economy, and texting while driving.
• Military officials are starting today to piece together what may have pushed an Army psychiatrist trained to help soldiers in distress to turn on his comrades in a shooting rampage that killed 13 people and wounded 30 at Ft. Hood, Texas. The suspected shooter, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, is on a ventilator and unconscious in a hospital after being shot four times by military police.
• Chanting “Kill the bill,” thousands of conservatives rallied at the Capitol yesterday against health care reform. “This bill is the greatest threat to freedom that I have ever seen,” House GOP leader John Boehner told the crowd.
• A drop in unemployment claims gave investors new reason to be optimistic about the economy and sent the Dow jumping by over 200 points to close above 10,000 yesterday.

Short TV highlight of the day:
The G4 network got caught in the crossfire between Fox News and CNN. On the cool and funny Attack of the Show yesterday, the cool and pretty Alison Haislip swung back at Fox during the show’s “The Feed” segment, with a sharp putdown and a modification of the usual signoff “… and you just got fed”. It starts at 2:42 into this clip.
Long TV highlight of the day:
Jon Stewart outdid his usual brilliance with an Emmy-worthy epic parody of Glenn Beck last night. Go to 7:25 into the episode here.
Goood morning all.
It was disgusting listening to our local RW radio nuts immediately go to the terrorism angle when it was believed there were 2 or 3 shooters. I’m positive there won’t be any correction today now that we know it’s just one.
Blah, feel like crap, sniffles and my eyes are watering. Great.
There’s now a direct link to Jon Stewart’s Glenn Beck parody:
http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-november-5-2009/the-11-3-project
Good Morning, Tim and the rest of the gang.
Our thoughts and prayers to all those affected by yesterday’s shootings at Ft. Hood. My wife noted last night that psychiatrists are required to counsel with their own psychiatrist, since they are at risk of their own form of PTSD (from their counseling sessions). I’m sure this will take a while to sort out.
#4 BTW, I loved that parody of the man who is, in truth, a parody of Howard Beale (caught the Purity of Essence ref from Dr Strangelove on the blackboard – priceless).
Good morning, sinners.
Well the decorating færies really worked wonders for the penalty box: new paint, new fainting couch and, most importantly, a fully-stocked bar! Oh and the painting of Steph wearing the magic purple sweater.
Who will christen it by being the first to be thrown in?
I’ll try: bollocks. No too tame.
Ummmm…Michelle Bachmann’s little gangb*ng on the steps of the Capitol? Ewwwwww.
Nope. Got nothin’.
#5: how many fox commentators will comment that he is a Muslim? I say all.
We’ll have to remember that when another shooting happens & it’s a born-again evangelical.
7
Guess I better be on my best behaivor. The smell of new paint makes me ill.
Is it any wonder that a significant proportion of the younger generations get their news from the Daily Show?
Hillarious.
But not enough crying.
8
That’s all I heard on our local RW “sports” morning show. Aw, the poor Muslim snapped because he was being made fun of, and all his Muslim bretheren were being killed.
Surprised they didn’t try to pin it on Obama, though I suppose if I listened longer they would have gotten there.
#11: how did these people act when Asian-Americans were sent to Japan, Korea & Vietnam? There’s a great episode of M*A*S*H that addresses it.
#11: and don’t worry. They’ll pin it on Obama in some way. Like “oh he didn’t bar Muslims from the miltary. That’s the problem. The military is infested with muslim sympathisers. He should ban them like the gays. Their just no good for the nation.” Or something similar.
#11: of course this is also the perfect “look over there” moment for the Republicans. The nation’s attention has been diverted from the heathcare debate.
Also loved that the Bohner said that he was going to quote from the Constitution and went ahead and read the preamble to the Declaration of Independence.
15
I’m sure the typical Republican/Teabagger didn’t know the difference.
#16: true. pathetic but true.
Obama is signing a bill extending unemployment benefit, but the real question is when are we going to bring back real jobs (manufacturing for example) to the US? Unemployment will seem better if all you can get is a job at Burger King.
Mornin
It’s Miller Time!
morning all!
Republican healthcare plan? Prayer & bloodletting??
my gosh… shane-o… is this your lovely and perverted work????
Great montage, Shane-O and Ken!
Shane-o!! And Ken!
a LOT of other things would rise as well Steph!
No, No, No! Do not tell Steph to do a sex tape to advance her career.
It would only spoil what fantasies we keep in our thought bubbles.
Why would Steph need Max when she has all of us for that? =P
steph likes the plural ?
in farrell’s sex tape ?
or instead of it falling into the wrong hand ?
#23 – partly. Ken is the king of out-of-context clips. I love the “I’m ready to fulfill my duties” clip… he hee!
hey, don’t underestimate the old catholics with sex tapes… I once helped an elderly lady pack up her house to move up north with her kids.. in the process she gave me an old VCR she didn’t want… honest to god, she left a porn in there… which of course wasn’t discovered until I brought the VCR in to work to give to someone else… truth is often stranger than fiction…
Lady GaGa’s next costume will be made of condoms. Just. You. Wait.
2: “…with an Emmy-worthy epic parody of Glenn Beck…”
by that logic, glenn beck deserves an emmy; he does such things all the time.
foot
#33, only the parody is Emmy-worthy because it’s the high art of parody. Glenn Beck is just a plain bad actor. It’s a little meta, I know, but that just how it works.
8: “how many fox commentators will comment that he is a Muslim? I say all. We’ll have to remember that when another shooting happens & it’s a born-again evangelical.”
it’s easy to see how the soviets outgrew the place the U.S.A. is just now entering by copying the soviets’ old playbook move for move. – they dont care about what people call themselves; they care about what people do.
Mornin’ Bloggoes!
Love you. Long time.
Fox & Freaks are already advocating that all military member who are also Muslim should be investigated. Grr!
11: “Surprised they didn’t try to pin it on Obama,…”
they may just focus instead on how uppity and arrogant obama’s comments sound. mayhaps they’ll start bringing oreos to the teabaggery.
What made her do it? Why’d she freak out?
Now now, poor Glennie had an appendectomy yesterday. We all have to hope he recovers in considerable pain requiring the same pills another certain fat blowhard got hooked on so much he went deaf – and in addition will now have a pre-existing condition.
#38 Not surprised.
Had Faux News been in existence during WWII, they would have been full-throated supporters of the Japanese internment camps.
38
Only if they investigate the Christians (especially the Blackwater wanna-bees) first.
Good morning Tim, Mr. Rabbit, shāf, Nick, Mr. High, Miss Danielle…
Well done Shane-O and Ken!
Mornin’ PJ
13: “They’ll pin it on Obama in some way. Like “oh he didn’t bar Muslims from the miltary. That’s the problem. The military is infested with muslim sympathisers. He should ban them like the gays.”
good call. and again it illustrates how the soviets outgrew the ridiculous practice of listening to peoples own declarations of their wampeters and granfalloons. – the U.S. armed services have an infestation of evangelicals trying to pass themselves off as christians, who have been cott using taxpayer money to fund their evangelism. – - – again, so glaringly simple: dont go by what they call themselves; go by what they do.
Just watched the Comedy Central replay on TV. Jon’s Beck impersonation was GREAT!! Comes on again at 1:30 ET.
Mornin PJ
14: “of course this is also the perfect “look over there” moment for the Republicans. The nation’s attention has been diverted from the heathcare debate….”
if it had happened in canada, a lot of those people would still be waiting to get shot and then treated.
Psychiatrists usually have psychiatrists of their own. Mine certainly have.
FYI, unless troops are actively training, their weapons are stored. Only the MPs are carrying firearms on base during the bulk of the day.
Mornin’ PJ!
Morning bloggers!
#50 Yes, I noted that back at #5.
Hello guys and gals,
I’m ready to ban all guns. I know that’s ridiculous since the shooting was by a military man who is issued a gun, but how many mass shootings does it take for the NRA to start wondering if maybe we need to control guns just the same way we control alcohol because some drinkers can’t handle it.
Heya, Skyhawk!
Sorry Shaf. My bad.
Maybe “interrogate” rather than “dialog”.
Wow this conservative caller is ….rational. And intelligent.
27: “It would only spoil what fantasies we keep in our thought bubbles.”
at least some of you havent been affected too harshly yet by the economy. i had to sell mine on ebay (no relation).
There’s no crying in radio! (Tell that to Glenn Beck!)
#57 No worries.
55 — Spiffy!
Looks like the gang’s all here!
A point I’d like to make — Military people don’t have guns all the time, usually they’re under lock & key unless needed. I think a psych officer would not have great access to weapons. I wonder where he got his rifles from?
Don = kick ass caller.
42: “Had Faux News been in existence during WWII, they would have been full-throated supporters of the Japanese internment camps.”
how is tea-bagging connected to the internment ?
59 – There are some out there believe it or not. The sad thing is they’re getting shouted down and shut out by the rwnjs.
#61: actually there’s no whingeing in radio which is what Lonesome Roads does. Crying is ok if it’s waranted (like Cronkite reporting on the death of JFK).
#6, #7: “I do not deny them my essence – but I love the smell of paint fumes in the morning!”
how is tea-bagging connected to the internment ?
“We hate and fear everyone who is not exactly like us.”
#63 It was noted that he carried two civilian-model guns (I assumed he purchased them off the base).
If we took pause for just a moment and really understood why we yes I said “we” created the Beck’s Hannity’s and Lemon Party O’Reilly’s of the world there would be the possibility of some sort of mutual understanding of basic human need not based on money or position but on the elevation of the human spirit irregardless of the caste system we pretend we don’t aspouse. We could certainly accept Hannity’s Frotting addiction and O’Reilly’s penchant for Lemon Party’s and even Beck’s attempts at us taking seriously his play with tupperware and spoons on the kitchen floor were we to just take pause and ask ourselves what are we truly afraid of?
69: i would be much more inclined to hate and fear somebody who IS exactly like me.
The thing is people just don’t snap, there may have been signs for awhile, but no one paid attention.
#63 – I actually heard they were his personal firearms, nothing military-issued.
#73: because we don’t take mental health seriously in this country.
73: “The thing is people just don’t snap, there may have been signs for awhile, but no one paid attention.”
also too, did the person even snap ? – that’s a semanyically loaded term. people’s hobbies do vary.
#66—John McCain does some great Tweets about waste in the Federal budget.
Wouldn’t it be nice if Conservatives (I won’t call them Republicans anymore) would concentrate on tacking that, coming from their own colleagues, instead of trying to kill people by keeping them from health care.
72– The teabaggers would agree with you, you with your clever snarkiness and densely complex wordplay.
More proof that I am not a teabagger, btw (as if that were in doubt)
also too, i’d be deeply embarrassed by a killing spree that only takes out a few. kaczinski needs to be enshrined in the hall of shame.
78: nice try, mr lipton
79 — I wonder what unibomber did on days he wasn’t building bombs?
73 and 75—-we don’t take anything serious seriously in this country. The Feds are trying to do something about joblessness, but what do our local leaders do? Not much.
We ignore homelessness and mental illness. We ignore corruption especially if our leaders, who pull the strings, are getting a cut.
The past 8 years under Bush and Rove have taught us all not to give a damn. Lesson learned.
81—probably read a lot. Geeky guy; no TV.
81: huge fan of “what’s happenin. – almost adopted the “hey HEY hey” greeting…. and lot’s of training for tournament level ro-sham-bo…. but couldnt find any friends to spar with.
Let’s think of a fun name for the Conservative Party.
75/82: i would take mental health seriously, but they’ve not yet seriously offered it.
#72 – Flom – THAT made me laugh. Needed that this a.m.
85: “gwyneth”
The many demands of my day are crowding in for my attention. I love all you bloggoes, but I must leave the liveblog for the week. Stay happy & well. I’ll see ya next week! ♥
#82: As a result of the war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of war. God grant that my suspicions may prove groundless.”
– Letter from Lincoln to Col. William F. Elkins, Nov. 21, 1864
87: you… you LAFF at my pain ? ….. gosh, how thottful…. could perhaps get a bar-kays and blossom dearie mash-up song about my embarrassing open sores ?
90—Lincoln…such a man of vision. He saw it coming.
Unemployment at 10.2%. That’s reported figures. It doesn’t say how many have stopped looking since the last report. A few figures that I heard (and sorry I can’t remember exactly from where) put it closer to 17-20%.
90/92: hellz yes ! honor this visionary man somehow ! – let’s celebrate the greatness of lincoln ! quick: each of you send me a five dollar bill.
92 Not enough vision, unfortunately he didn’t see it coming.

#85 Names for the so-called Conservative Party…
Know Nothings
You Betchas
George
God Fearin’, Gun Luvin’, Patriuts
Baggers, Birthers, Deathers Party
#92: he saw if nothing else what the railroads did to small towns, public officials of all levels and individuals. If they wanted something they did whatever they wanted to get it.
next official talking point: “see? – he wanted to practice medicine. these health care nuts are out of control !”
#95 and how is the penalty box Trojanrabbit?
95: you never hear the one you sleep thru.
I say we call the conservative party “Belgium” because they’res nothing worse that Belgians. (Thank’s Monty Python)
I go to the CNN website a lot. I don’t know why I go there. They always have links to stories about murderers, child killers, and rapists. I understand that “if it bleeds it leads” but look, here’s what’s on the menu right now:
* Jobless rate hits 10.2% CNNMoney
* 2 NATO soldiers missing in Afghanistan
* Yankees manager helps accident victim
* Polygamist guilty in sex assault
* Family of teen set on fire gets apology
* Violent message outside a N.Y. mosque
* Ticker: Palin event ‘bizarre,’ Dem says
* Child traffickers prey on powerless
* Chris Brown: ‘What was I thinking?’
* Vote now for 2009 CNN Hero of the Year
So out of this list there are 2, maybe 3 things to click on that won’t get you depressed.
I dunno. I guess I want CNN news to be more like education. Instead it’s more like reading a tabloid.
Media is about scoops and sensationalism hence the erroroneous reports.
101: that’s gumby a hard name to shake.
102—But they are competing against the screamers and criers so I
guess they figure they had better bring in all the shocking stories they can to compete with that.
103: you mean we’re not really getting ice cream ?
93—I understand the stopping looking. I often acknowledge to myself that I’m back in college because I gave up looking for a new job.
I still apply, but always with hopelessness in my heart. I’m sure that comes across in my cover letters.
LOL, that’s not true Steph. You’ve got Hal. He’s a public flirter. That’s something.
96—I like those mocking words like Republitards.
Conservabrats?
99
An exquisite picture of Mama in her Magical Purple Sweater. But it’s almost like you’re being watched……
106: No ice cream for you!
“We’ve got to get out as carefully as we were careless getting in.”
steph must tweet her way out as carefully as she was careless in googling her way in.
95—No, I think I read that Lincoln told his wife he didn’t think he would live much longer. Didn’t he also have dreams about it? I can’t remember.
Maybe the new paint fumes are getting to me. I do believe I’m getting the vapors.
falls on soft cushy fainting couch
#110 are the eyes moving or the boobs? If it’s the eyes I had nothing to do with it.
109 – Conservabitch, Rapepublicans, Reichwing
Conservatives: Conning to Serve a Billionaire.
Too long, not catchy.
109: perhaps a bit too subaruesque…. and that conjures george takei…. i love george takei, as many do, but is that the icon you want ?
Hey, Sully is leading the Rose Parade!! I will have to go see that this time.
116…LMAO!
Canservthemselves. Oh I like that.
When the afghan election was a proven fraud the first time and now again (hmm seems like they got the hang of our democracy) there should have been talks about an exit strategy.
114: “, I think I read that Lincoln told his wife he didn’t think he would live much longer….”
simply a compliment about mary todd’s libido.
122—-OK, that’s it. That’s the one I will use until I find something better. Conservatives = Canservthemselves.
109/117: turd reich ?
#96:
thuh anti-librul partee…
the rainbow-free party…
Naah, I think “republitards” will do just fine.
How embarrassing…
I just saw footage from yesterday’s tea party event and watching Michelle Bachman and John Boehner is becoming too difficult… they are really embarrassing….
And when you watch those nuts in the crowd you can’t help but wonder how many of them are going to be the first to write off the interest on their home mortgages in order to reduce their TAX BURDEN come April 15…
And you look at their homemade signs expressing concern about how THEIR TAX DOLLARS are being spent… Are these people stupid or just plain evil?
This is becoming too confusing for me…
126: I like that one.
127: is that rainbow wig john 3:16 guy still in jail ? does he know soy bomb boy ? will kanye ever get to be the greatest amazingly desperate for attention guy of all time ?
Jim just likes saying getting out and getting in
128—-Ignorant and emotional with a few evil donuts thrown in to keep the crowd in line.
128: a solution you may want to try.
teach glenn beck the “terrorist fist pump”.
in person.

I didn’t know the Magical Purple Sweater was see-through….
We need a massive jobs program and actual trade policy.
I used to joke about becoming a call girl myself. But now that I’m older, I dunno. Too much competition from the young ladies.
132: it’s a slang.

#135 fair rather than free
135—Trade policy does need to be created. But all the politicians will tiptoe through that. Don’t want to piss off China.
134: as are the donuts. we can see by your grin that you approve.
#139 Not surprised. China holds a big-azz amount of our debt.
#135: I have to agree with a lot of what Thom Hartmann says. We need tariffs again and make it more costly for American-based companies to import from overseas divisions when they could make stuff here.
136: i’d call you. are you still at avogadro’s number ?
#134: just trying to make life a little better.
I have to go peoples. Have a lovely weekend!
#136: there’s a big MILF market out there. And many many horny teenagers that want to lose their virginity.
what’s embarrassing about a pic of chris and his leader hosin’ him ?
146: given the choice, i dont think there are any boys who would have waited to be teenagers.
scamwow !

yes steph, it is an alternative to health care. pasta la pizza.
Seriously… those pics of steph are HI-LAR-I-OUS!!!
So Steph was a bush & Joan d’Arc. I see a religious theme. Was the bush burning?
someone is peeing orange in Bohner?
on Bohner. not in.
Boehner is an audio version of Highlights Magazine’s ‘Spot the Errors’ cartoon. I lost count.
Their the party of D’UOH!
OMG. Highlights magasine. They’ve been printing the same 5 issues for 50 years.
Yep. All actors are crazy. I should know!
instead of waving around their copies of the Constitution as props, the GOP should sit down and read it.
They can’t whine about its length… and it has been posted online for longer than 72 hours.
Oh Mandy! You came!
Was that Carrie Prejean screeching?
Is it a requirement that republican woman have to have annoying voices???
Oh my world!
My public radio reporter ex-girlfriend, who now covers Congress, said on her Facebook page that the teabaggers screamed at her a lot yesterday.
I guess she met the minimum flare requirement!
That scary Boehner speech reminded me of the poster for “Capitalism – A Love Story”, the one showing a man in a suit waving the flag with his right hand while hiding a bag of money behind his back with his left hand.
Spike Lee announced that he will make a movie about yesterday’s rally. It will be called “Get On The Short Bus”.
161: They first need to know the difference between the Constitution and Declaration of Independence.
I’ve been to Monument! Spent 5 weeks there for work in ’07. It’s a tiny little town.

/I used to hate the Colonel…
Fowt Dix? Remember Richard Dix?
“tens of thousands of merkins”?
#169 Good one.
Rep Boehner better watch his back because Rep Bachmann might make a run for his leadership pposition.
Yep, Rep Bachmann could be the Minority Leader in the House and eventually become the Speaker, should the Republicans reclaim the House.
Just a thought. Who is scared now?

#97, RE: Cut-throat railroads
If you want a good novel to sit and read about what the railroads did, go pick up Frank Norris’ “The Octopus.”
The short version: Railroad tries to destroy small western town by control freight prices for wheat – the town’s lifeblood crop.
Ever since I took the Evelyn Woodhead Sped Readin Course, my reading has im proved 100% and also comprension has increased won der full ly. I reccommend the Evelyn Woodhead Sped Readin Course to all my friends out there and you tell them that you heard it here first on Roller Derby.
#181 That was Rep. Todd Akin:
http://www.politico.com/singletitlevideo.html?bcpid=1155201977&bctid=48483738001
#181 – yup – Rep. Todd Akin. He was more worried about the “Under God” line, got all flustered… gotta have priorities, right?
185
Oh TAAAAHHHD
#183 Yep. Blazing Saddles was not too far from the truth.
AFAIC, every time they use the phrase “Under God” they’re misreading the Pledge.
Just ask Porky Pig.
183: Not to be confused the Chuck Norris film “The Octagon” .

I’m sorry, Steph. You were saying something?
He went from unstable to stable?
#182 – or, a play on MSNBC’s tag line: “THE place for fart jokes… It’s the Stephanie Miller Show”
“This one time … at man camp…”
Man camp near SF: it’s called a disco.
They get together at the man camps and get their beat on. Their drums that is.
BTW what’s all this crap about Goldman-Sachs getting doses of H1N1 vaccine but health centers in NY didn’t?
I believe the Bohemian Club meets near the little town of Occidental in Sonoma County. I’m familiar with the area but am not sure of the exact location.

USA Today: Shooter praised God before Fort Hood massacre – 1 hr ago
#204 Considering the shooter was reported dead most of yesterday until the press realized he wasn’t, you should be skeptical about the latest Ft. Hood news.
Shall we reach Sparta today? What do you say!
#205: true. and this was a link at the BBC.
Morning all! Is there a sex tape of Fiorina yet?
That quote about Fiorina not voting sounds like a quote about that E-bay woman who’s also running for office as a republitard. Are they both non-voters?

We need everyone’s help throughout the country since our congresswoman is now a national figure with backing by the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Dick Army. She will garner millions from her minions. Bachmann did not get a majority of the votes in 2008 (only 46%) and she won’t again in 2010, but we need funds to put boots on the ground to convince the moderate Republicans and Independents that a vote for a 3rd party candidate will only elect her again.
Please help!

Fiorina is strictly a ‘machine’ girl. HP’s R&D budget really went through the roof when she was there.
