KOEB 11/28/07 Maybe Rudy Should've Called Karl Rove's Geek Squad Edition

[Berry Cool]

:hi: Pull up a seat, folks!

Wednesday night is Republican Goof-Up Night in America!

From Rudy burying the expense of sneaking around with Judy in bills to the taxpayer, to the Turdblossom hiring "special" techies to wipe his hard drive, we've got it all!

Kickoff starts NOW!!!!

[SeattleGirl]

1. Woohoo! Love these nights! Hi Berry and everyone!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

2. Oh boy, and Rudy has terror ties too?!?!?

Keith is REALLY bringing us ALL the action!!!!

[SeattleGirl]

3. I know! My jaw is on the floor! I hadn't heard about this at all!

:wow:

[Berry Cool]

5. Oh, and Woooolfie...

...he's wearing THE GRAY SUIT!!!!!!!

C'mere baby!!!! :loveya:

[WolverineDG]

7. He lurves me

You know he does.

:rofl:

dg

[ralps]

4. Hi BerryBush, Hi Everyone!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

8. ralps!

:hi:

[ralps]

10. Hi SeattleGirl

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[WolverineDG]

6. Go get 'em, Keith!

& in THE Gray Suit too!! :loveya: :loveya:

I can't wait to see how Ghouliani weasels his way out of this one.

dg

[SeattleGirl]

9. I hope he isn't able to do that.

:grr:

[WolverineDG]

14. Well, you know these RW hypocrites

They don't give a damn about their supposed "litmus test" issues if ditching them means they'll get access to power (see Pat Robertson).

dg

[SeattleGirl]

16. I know, and it's digusting.

[Greylyn58]

11. Howdy Everyone

Man...my jaw just hit the floor over this story. Wow!! Keith comes out swinging tonight.

:hi: Berry and :hi: to all my fellow KOEBers!!! Big :grouphug:


Should be a hot show tonight!! :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

12. Hey Wolvie! Woofies to Sheridan!

I was floored when Keith started talking about this. I hadn't heard anything about it.

[Berry Cool]

17. Me either. I guess this really IS a must-read!!!!

And the killer is, most of GD doesn't know, 'cause they're all watching the Repug debate!!!! :bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

20. Hehehe.

:bounce: :bounce:

[Patsy Stone]

13. Hello, all!

:hi:

Maybe it's because of my stuffed head, or because it's so damn long, but I couldn't follow that guy. Is this Rudy story gonna stick?

And what's it all about, Alfie? (In a nutshell, please.)

[WolverineDG]

18. Rudy chose $ over security

St. Rudy of 9/11 sold himself out for 30 pieces of silver. And charged the taxpayers for providing security while he screwed around on his wife.

:clinkies:

dg

[spooky3]

24. I really hope Giuliani is the Rep. nominee.

He will be an unending source of great Keef material. And, once all the skeletons have danced out of the closet, I believe that voters won't think nearly as well of him as some do today.

Hi everyone :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

27. Can't get enough of him in drag!

Okay, that's a lie.

:hi:

[spooky3]

28. Groucho Marx had the same weakness for Margaret Dumont

[Patsy Stone]

31. LOL

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCvz8y_DUSY

[spooky3]

40. ooh, that's a great clip!

[Botany]

45. Theft in Office?

You could Rudy as a client. :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

19. Patsy!

:hi: :pals:

[Patsy Stone]

22. Hi, Girl!

Saw your picture in the lounge. You're pretty. :)

[SeattleGirl]

25. Aw. thanks.

:blush: :hi:

[SharonRB]

15. Hi, everyone!

Another wonderful night in the neighborhood, huh?

[SeattleGirl]

21. Hi Sharon!

:hi:

[SharonRB]

37. Hi, SG

:hi:

I'm multi-tasking tonight.

[Berry Cool]

23. Sure is!

And Edwards is going to be on tomorrow?!? What will THAT do to all the GD'ers who say Keith is pro-Hillary and he never mentions any candidates other than her or Obama??

[Patsy Stone]

26. I don't know

But watch for a lot of Edwards bashing. :hi:

[Berry Cool]

29. Ooh! And Naomi Wolf tomorrow night too!

Our cup runneth over!!

[SeattleGirl]

30. Absolutely!

:bounce: :bounce:

[Berry Cool]

36. And here I was, thinking the best thing in the Village Voice

was the Tom Tomorrow cartoon someone posted on DU today!!

HEY!!!!??????? Why didn't they show Keith tossing the papers tonight?!?!?!? :-(

[Patsy Stone]

38. Double plus good.

:thumbsup:

I think this tie may actually work with the gray suit. It's darker than his other purple tie, and maybe those dots have finally found a home.

[Berry Cool]

104. LOL, not Naomi Wolf, Naomi Klein!

And probably Richard Wolfe! My bad!

Um...either that, or it's Naomi Wolf and Richard Klein!

[Botany]

32. Eric Prince ... Christian

Prince also serves as a board member of Christian Freedom International, a non-profit group with a
mission of helping "Christians who are persecuted for their faith in Jesus Christ."

From Wiki

BTW so Rudy was getting $ from terrorist connected people and making NYC
pay the costs of his affair?

Not only is Rudy toast but he is in legal shit too. :rofl:
The term would be "theft in office."

[Patsy Stone]

33. Eric Prince

seems like Cheney's long lost son.

[SeattleGirl]

34. Hey Bot!

We can only hope!

[SharonRB]

39. And brother-in-law of Dick DeVos,

the dick who ran against Gov. Granholm.

[Botany]

42. I read Prince's wiki bio

:puke:

The HW Bush White House wasn't far enough right for him.

They let gays tour the White House and supported a clean air
bill.

[GigiMommy]

57. Hi Sharon!!!

I'm SOOOOOO glad he lost.

[SharonRB]

93. Hi, Gigi

Can you imagine if he was governor now? Of course he could have used his own money to get us out of the budget mess -- LOL!

[GigiMommy]

98. Hee hee hee...

You know sometimes I just get the feeling that the Republicans in the State Senate want to purposely ruin Michigan JUST BECAUSE they HATE Granholm and the Democratic Party.

[bleever]

35. Car wreck in progress on CNN.

Can't...look...away...


:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

41. I salute your bravery!

I can't bear to watch!

:patriot:

[bleever]

46. Fun to watch Ron Paul make the rest of them apopleptic.

He's getting lots of applause.

[SeattleGirl]

48. I don't agree with many of his views, but I have to hand it to him.

He REALLY stirs things up!

[Patsy Stone]

47. Mitt really is a grand achievement

in Plastic Injection Molding, isn't he?

And I can't listen to Rudy's whistling s's for more than a few seconds in a row.

[bleever]

50. He looks so much like a Ken doll

that you have to wonder if he's...uh...anatomically correct or not.

[Patsy Stone]

60. Fred seems marginally more awake tonight.

Tancredo is as crazy as ever. And until this moment, I completely forgot that Duncan Hunter is running.

On the Mitt question: not.

[Botany]

49. Dam You .... not staying w/ KO

[bleever]

62. Flipping back and forth.

McCain told Paul he'd have let Hitler take over the world, and the audience booed him.

[Botany]

70. So you like cock fights then?

[Berry Cool]

51. Here's that Tom Tomorrow comic...a MUST-READ for all KO fans...

but look out, you may choke laughing...

[Patsy Stone]

53. I think he was looking for you out of the window.

Did you wave?

[Berry Cool]

71. Sadly, it was only a monitor, and he knew it.

Tonight was not the night for us to meet. :cry:

[SeattleGirl]

43. This guy from the ACLU was on with Rachel today.

This story freaks me the hell out!

[Berry Cool]

92. Just another way for them to spy on us illegally.

Now I'll always wonder what our "apartment inspections" are REALLY about.

[bleever]

44. Bradbury was really angry with Michael Moore over Fahrenheit 9/11.

Too bad, cuz I loved Ray Bradbury in high school. Read everything he wrote.

[Berry Cool]

55. OMG, Keith just DELIBERATELY turned his back to us to look out the window

at the holiday scaffolding and gave me FULL KOOS!!!!!!!!!!!

NOW who does he love, Wolfie?!?!?!? :loveya:

[WolverineDG]

66. He just didn't want you to feel left out

:rofl:

Sometimes, I swear he's doing this on purpose.

dg

[Berry Cool]

73. He's reading us again.

He knew it wasn't a window, but he wanted to give me KOOS anyway!

:hi: Hi Keith!!

[WolverineDG]

58. zOMG Me too!!

I used to find & read collections of his short stories. I still haven't forgiven Stephen King for ripping off "Something Wicked This Way Comes."

dg

[gkhouston]

99. Me three. Did you ever see the movie for "Something Wicked This Way Comes"?

Great cinematography. It was like a lot of Bradbury stories had come to life.

[WolverineDG]

103. Yes!

I saw it in the theatre. :scared:

dg

[Botany]

52. One more impeachable crime by the bush mob

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x2361519

The man who was supposed to investigate Rove hired people to wipe clean
his e mails .... he said it was a mistake.

[SeattleGirl]

56. I'm so sick of the "mistakes were made" excuse.

This guy knew exactly what he was doing. And he paid for it with the department's credit card. :grr: :grr: :grr:

[Botany]

64. But it was virus

Fucker should be in jail ... obstruction of justice.

[GigiMommy]

54. Good Evening Everyone!!!

Had to watch Shrek The Halls with my daughter. Missed the first half. Was it good?

[SeattleGirl]

61. It was excellent, Gigi!

St. Rudy of 9/11 apparently has a lot of ties to terrorists. We all had our jaws on the floor over that one!

[GigiMommy]

74. Hi SG!!!

Drat I missed it!!!! Yet another thing to put on my Christmas list.

1. Borders Gift Card
2. TIVO!!!!

[Berry Cool]

65. Incredible! Don't miss the re-air!!!!

And LOL, Keith just showed us he's not in his usual studio tonight (THAT explains why we didn't get a toss!). They're just PROJECTING the image of Rockefeller Plaza behind him...it's too noisy down there for the lighting ceremony stuff!

[GigiMommy]

78. Hi BB!!

That was cool!!! I came in just before he showed that.

[Greylyn58]

59. When I heard this story the other day

it just chilled me to the bone. Of all the crap Shrub and his people have done this is just chilling. :scared: There is just no other word for it.

These people...fireman, medics...they need to have their focus on the people they should be helping, not spying for this &*@Y$*# government!!!

If the general public thinks thats what they will be doing instead of helping them with an emergency.... Well, I think we all know what the effect will be.

Damn, Bush and all his minions!!!

[SeattleGirl]

63. Can we impeach the bastards yet?

:grr: :nuke: :grr: :nuke: :grr:

[Berry Cool]

69. You bet!!!!!

Did anyone see the caption of the Ashcroft-agrees-to-be-waterboarded pic?

"Let the Eagle Soak!" :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

75. Damn, I missed that!

:rofl:

[Greylyn58]

90. If it were up to me or the rest of DU...

well we all know what would have happened by now.

These people are evil personified and need to go!!!

[gkhouston]

102. you have just expressed your discontent.

The Blackwater Volunteer Fire Department will be visiting your home shortly.

[bleever]

67. Yay for Keef's Special Comments book!

:woohoo:

[Berry Cool]

76. Keith is thrilled that his book is doing so well in pre-order on Amazon!

Us too!

Oh, no, Britney is #1...please let it not be Musto...

[Patsy Stone]

79. Your wish is granted.

:loveya:, Joel.

[WolverineDG]

68. Lacking underwear

is usually one of the steps one takes to get pregnant. Also on the list, not keeping your knees together.

:eyes:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

72. Alcohol

usually plays a big part also. :)

[Botany]

77. I missed what E.D. Hill did

porno? bank fraud?

[Berry Cool]

81. Phew...it's Joel McHale. Relief.

And E.D. Hill told Faux viewers that they could send mail to "Any Recovering Soldier" at Walter Reed, when they can't...Reed only processes mail sent to a specific soldier by name. DUH...

[WolverineDG]

80. YUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKK!!!

I am so never buying undies that are left out in the open for Britney to try on!

dg

[Berry Cool]

83. Keith "lit" the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree!!!!

:rofl: That hit on the button was a bit late, Keith!!!! :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

84. Just a tad

:rofl:

[WolverineDG]

86. Premature Illumination

Poor Keith, I don't think Pfizer makes a pill for that.....

:evilgrin:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

88. ...

:spank:

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

94. Too perfect!!!!!

:rofl:

I don't mind, Keith...I'll be happy to serve as the angel sitting on top of YOUR tree anytime!!!

[GigiMommy]

82. O.K. the "Gas-X" line was funny!!

My goodness I hope that girl isn't pregnant again.

[Berry Cool]

89. Oh. My. God.

Rudy in bed with terrorists, Blackwater on steroids, a new baseball story KEITH HAD NEVER HEARD BEFORE(?????), and Keith lights the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree...but that's not enough...he has to ask whether Britney was buying a wig or a MERKIN!!!!!! :rofl:

(And to add: why am I not the LEAST bit surprised to learn that Keith ended up talking BASEBALL with one of his guests after a show????)

[WolverineDG]

85. OK, wtf is "merkin?

Anyone?

dg

[GigiMommy]

87. Isn't that what W calls...

a person who lives in this country!?!

[Berry Cool]

95. Yes, but aside from that...

...it's a wig you use to replace hair on another part of your body other than your head...

(Edited to add: I can't believe I am the only person here who knows this)

[gkhouston]

100. you aren't. I mentioned it to my husband about three seconds before

Keith brought it up and we laughed when KO subsequently mentioned it.

[Patsy Stone]

91. Why, thank you for asking...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkin

[Berry Cool]

96. My favorite part of their definition:

"Houghton Mifflin's American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, 4th edition describes the term's etymology as stemming from an 'alteration of obsolete malkin, lower-class woman, mop, from Middle English;...'"

Michelle, is that YOU??? :rofl:

Well, she's lower-class and obsolete all right...

[GigiMommy]

97. Oh My Goodness...

well I just learned something new today. I can't even imagine how you could make it stay on.
I don't EVEN want to go there. :shrug:

[gkhouston]

101. what's disturbing is the idea that they're used in Japan

for immature girls. And you would do this because....? :puke:

I was only aware of merkins being used as parts of costumes. (Had to re-word that one a couple of times. Somehow, "I was only aware of the theatrical uses of merkins" is subject to more than one interpretation...)
