KOEB Meeting: 03/13/08 -- Penn's at it Again Edition

[Patsy Stone]

:hi:, kids!

[SeattleGirl]

1. Hi ya, Patsy! Howdy all!

So, now it's down to just one state?????? :crazy:

[SharonRB]

3. Hi, SG

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

8. Hey Sharon!

Is your mom doing okay today?

[SharonRB]

11. Yeah, pretty good

[SeattleGirl]

14. Good to hear.

[SharonRB]

2. Hiya, Pats

:hi:

Yeah, Michigan was really fair, Hillary. NOT!!!!

[WolverineDG]

4. Evening all!

:hi:

Okay, Hill, so you agreed that MI wouldn't count & waited until everyone else took their names off the ballot before whining that they should count MI. hypocrite.

dg

[SharonRB]

9. I'm learning to hate her more everyday

:hi:

[Rhiannon12866]

179. I just can't manage to dislike Hillary Clinton. She's not my choice, but she is my senator.

Maybe it's because of Bill, who I still think is terrific. He came to my little burg just before the 2006 midterms to campaign for the Democratic congressional candidate who managed to unseat the incumbent Republican who the local paper said "could have the job for life," if he wanted it... Anyway, I got to see him and hear him speak and it's no exaggeration that he's got incredible charisma. It was SRO and I live in a very red district...:-)

[SharonRB]

187. I'm really trying not to hate her

and if somehow she pulls this off, I will vote for her, but I doubt that I'll work my tail off for her like I will for Obama. I still like Bill, but not with the passion I did before. I've seen him in person a number of times, and during the mid-terms I was at the front of the crowd twice and got to talk to him for a second -- I gave him a birthday card when I saw him on his 60th birthday (the secret service people weren't very happy about it, but he took it from me and put it in his inside coat pocket). It really is amazing to hear him speak in person.

[Rhiannon12866]

195. I'm disappointed with her, and she's my last choice, but I'll support her if she runs.

But my reasons are more political, since she's way too conservative for me, despite what the MSM says. *sigh* But I agree that she's stepped over the line. My choice, obviously, was Dennis, but I was really sure that John Edwards deserved the nomination and was totally bummed out when he dropped out...;(

And that is totally cool that you got to meet The Big Dog! He really is incredibly impressive in person! My SO went up to the front to take pix and got to shake his hand. He said that he was never going to wash it...:D

[SharonRB]

199. My first choice was, and still is, Gore

But that's a lost dream. I had a multitude of second choices -- none of them being Obama or Clinton. I went from Richardson to Dodd to Biden and then finally to Edwards. I wound up with Obama by default when they were all out of the race.

[Rhiannon12866]

205. Me, too. I like Obama, but he just doesn't speak to me like the others do.

I was hoping for Gore, as well. But, as I said yesterday, he's doing so well that he hardly needs the aggravation. I used to belong to the Al Gore group here on DU, but it's been a long time. Wonder if it's still functioning...:-(

I would have been happy with Richardson or Dodd and my SO's first choice was Biden. He's become a big Obama supporter, which is fine with me, and I guess he's my first choice now, same as you... But I still miss John Edwards. I thought that he had everything and agreed with Bill Maher that he was the most "electable" candidate.:shrug:

[SeattleGirl]

10. Hi DG.

Drives me nuts that she wants to ignore the reality of it.

[Mabus]

5. Hello

doing a bit of a drive by this evening. I've got a Basketball Jones that I'm feeding tonight but it's half time right now.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

12. Hey Mabus!

:hi:

[Mabus]

19. Hi SG!

Good to see you.

[SharonRB]

13. Hey, Mabus

:hi:

[Mabus]

20. Hi SharonRB

I'll be seeing you Sunday! :party:

[SharonRB]

22. Yay!

I'm so excited to get out of here!

[Mabus]

27. I hope they don't do a revote in your absence

:crazy:

[SharonRB]

29. Don't worry

It won't be until June.

[Mabus]

41. That's what they're saying now

anything could happen this year.

[Berry Cool]

164. Basketball Jones?

Featuring Tyrone Shoelaces!!

"I got more moves than Ex-Lax!" :rofl:

[ralps]

6. Hi Patsy, Hi Everyone!! Oh Please Hillary & Mark Just Stop spouting Bullcrap!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :wtf: :grr:

[SeattleGirl]

16. Hi ralps!

:hi:

[ralps]

17. Hi SeattleGirl!!

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

[SharonRB]

7. Which part of

I shall not campaign or participate did she not understand?

[Patsy Stone]

15. More pretzel logic

We agreed it wouldn't count, but we didn't agree you had to take your name off the ballot. Therefore, since mine was on the ballot, I WIN!!

:crazy:

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

18. Pretzel Logic, you say?

[Patsy Stone]

25. Love Steely Dan

But I was thinking more of one Georgie could choke on.

:hi:

[SharonRB]

31. That's my favorite kind.

[SeattleGirl]

34. Yeah, I know.

But that album immediately popped into my mind when I read your post.

I love that album.

[Berry Cool]

171. Is that the one with "My Old School" on it

Or is that one Countdown to Ecstasy? :loveya:

Either way, great song.

[RevCheesehead]

79. Damn....

I thought this was a pretzeldent slam. :P

[SharonRB]

21. That's right, Hillary

Listen to Howie. Obama is the stronger candidate!

[Botany]

23. Mark Penn

They are paying him $10 million / year?


BTW PA is a closed primary no way does Hillary
get her ???% bump from cross over and funny votes.

[SharonRB]

24. But neither will Obama get the Independent or moderate Republican

vote.

[Patsy Stone]

30. I don't think he's going to win PA

and it doesn't affect things one way or the other, unless she does exceedingly well.

[SharonRB]

33. Exactly

She has to win by a hugh!!!!!! margin. By a brazillion votes, maybe.

[Patsy Stone]

66. At least!

:rofl:

[Botany]

48. The dynamics of PA seem to lean for Hillary

oldest average age in the country

large rural areas

strong political machine behind her

but to discount the really big size of the cross over &
"funny vote" in OH and cross over vote in TX would
be risky.

I "think" team Hillary is working the race card to split
the party to win PA .... lots of rural UMW, hunters, blue
collar, and labor voters there .... But in Wisconsin that
had much the same demographics and a closed primary
(Wisconsin is more educated though) Hillary got thumped.

My hope is enough super delegates cross to Obama before
PA to make her see the light.

BTW how is your mom?

[SharonRB]

55. She's doing as well as can be expected

The therapist came today to evaluate her for physical therapy.

There are lots of colleges in PA. If they can get out the youth vote, maybe Obama will do okay.

[Botany]

73. and a fairly large black population too in PA

Erie, P-burg, Philly, and some other mid sized old
steel towns.

***********

I wish nothing but the best for your time w/ your mom.

[Berry Cool]

175. Keep us posted.

[RevCheesehead]

100. Wisconsin had an open primary...

complete with same-day registration.

BTW - the counties that went for Hil were the rural ones with a strong fundy religious preference.... and she won all eight of them.

[Botany]

126. like you live there or something

:rofl:

go see my friend Neil Diboll in Westfield, WI this summer
tell him you know me and that you have $100 for native
wisconsin flowers for your church.

http://www.prairienursery.com/

[Berry Cool]

173. Maybe not the majority of it

but he'll get some of it.

I trust there are indies like me in PA.

[SharonRB]

26. Getting everyone in our party to agree to this

is a miracle.

Now let's see if Hillary and Obama both agree to it.

[Rhiannon12866]

36. Did you hear Randi today, Sharon?

She told this incredible story about how she knows David Patterson...:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

39. I heard her tell that story.

Very cool!

[Rhiannon12866]

54. I thought so, too. It choked me up...

:-)

[SharonRB]

40. I did hear that part of the show

It was a really amazing story.

[Rhiannon12866]

76. Oh, good! I just told my SO about it, and it was kind of long,

so I didn't want to post it...;)

[Rhiannon12866]

28. Great pic of Keith, Patsy!

I'll have to send this thread to my friend, a huge KO fan, who rarely manages to catch "Countdown," since she works nights, so she can see it... :-)

[RevCheesehead]

32. Hi everyone

I have nothing clever to say, so I'll just say I'm glad to be here! :hi:

[SharonRB]

35. And we're glad you're here.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

43. Thanks -

I needed that.

My Dad's dementia is getting worse. He's gonna have to go into the Alzheimers Unit pretty soon. :(

[SharonRB]

44. Oh, no

I'm so sorry.

:hug:

[RevCheesehead]

53. Thanks, Sharon.

We hold on to our parents as long as we can; and when we hurt, we hold on to one another. :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

47. Oh Rev.

I'm so sorry to hear that. :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

56. Thanks, SG.

The scary part is that he's slipping really fast. :(

:hug:

[GigiMommy]

119. Hey Rev...

:hug: I'm sorry to hear about your Dad.

[RevCheesehead]

124. Thanks, Gigi.

:hug:

[gkhouston]

213. Ruth...

:hug: There but for the grace of God go us all.

[RevCheesehead]

220. As always, you get to the heart of the matter.

Thanks, Gina... and it's really great to see you again! :hug:

[gkhouston]

226. It's good to see you, too.

And I have a smidgen of an idea of where you are, although only a smidgen. I've also got only one increasingly frail parent left, although she is still well-oriented. Feisty, too. You don't suppose that's hereditary?

[RevCheesehead]

228. Not in reverse, no.

:evilgrin:

But if so, watch yer daughter very carefully. :)

[SeattleGirl]

37. Rev!

:hi: :loveya:

How's it going?

[RevCheesehead]

49. I've had better days...

But I'll quickly add that I'm better now that I'm here with my friends. :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

52. I just read what you said about your dad.

That's gotta be so heartbreaking.

[RevCheesehead]

59. Yup.

Actually, my heart isn't broken, per se, but it is aching and rather heavy.

They won't move him until after I see him next Tuesday and get him to the doctor. He's confused and wandering around, missing meals, etc... It doesn't sound good at all.

[SeattleGirl]

68. Is there a good facility near him?

[RevCheesehead]

70. Yes - it's a part of the same place he's at now,

but it is in an isolated building (for safety). He will probably lose contact with the friends he's made.

[SeattleGirl]

75. Maybe some of those friends can visit him.

[RevCheesehead]

85. I hope so...

but there's still ice on the ground. I hope Spring comes quickly.

[Berry Cool]

167. Sorry to hear about your dad's getting worse, Rev.

:hug: Wish I had more to offer.

[RevCheesehead]

169. A hug is just right.

Thanks, Berry. :hug:

[Botany]

57. XX and XY friends too.

Want some comfort food?

[RevCheesehead]

63. Thanks, but no...

I'd rather have a hug, Buddy. :hug:

[Botany]

80. Hugs are free .... but as for the rest

well I am 4 diamonds .... $2,500 / hour.

[RevCheesehead]

90. I'll settle for that.

We don't call you Cuddles for nothing.

[Botany]

99. I'll send you cuddles part 2 pix.

Crispini & Patsy already have it.

************

BTW I had to go to service last Sunday

I was plowing snow .... 20 to 24" ... people still came out
and the new rector "told me" that people had been practicing
their lines for a week so I had to stop and go to a quickie
service.

[RevCheesehead]

108. Good for him/her!

When in doubt, just repeat "And also with you."

[Botany]

118. Episcopal venison

"Praise be to you Lord Christ"

[bleever]

123. And avoid saying,

"Damn right."

[RevCheesehead]

125. Isn't that an example of Bleever Species-ism?

I could be wrong.

[bleever]

135. Dam-Rite,

your full-service choice for a damn nation.

[Botany]

165. do not pass the joint during mass

:rofl:

[bleever]

217. But if you do, say,

"No man: peace be with YOU."

:thumbsup:

[Berry Cool]

177. Or "God damn America."

:sigh: That guy DOES need to go. But it pisses me off that all of a sudden he is the Story of the Day, not because he is current, but because the kitchen sink is getting emptier and emptier and more stuff must he hauled out of it and frantically tossed. Even by Dan Abrams. Dear God.

[bleever]

218. He says that as someone

not devoted to destroying it (just like the terrorists!), but as someone who has lived it and built it and advocated for it to be better.

Hell, I've cursed my own self out on occasion. I've even used profanity to rebuke myself, and to describe how I feel I've carried out different actions.

That doesn't mean I'm against me. It's a conversation that happens, and that democracy was created to allow. Freedom of thought, and freedom of speech.


But that's too fine a distinction for electoral politics.

[RevCheesehead]

221. I believe the full context was "God bless America, and God damn America...."

Hardly the evil that everyone's trying to make it out to be.
Sermons, like the Bible, aren't meant to be read like a list of separate ingredients. You need the full thing to understand what's being said.

Of course, I know you know that. I guess I'm preaching to the choir. :)

[bleever]

225. Haaaaaa-lay leuja.

[Patsy Stone]

141. I think she likes you too

Thanks for that, btw. I like her pose. :)

[Botany]

174. Later on that night I was holding her and ...

.. I kept thinking this is kinda strange.

Me = Geek
Steph = Star

Someday I will tell you what she told me about just how
nasty the Clinton people have been to her.

Steph spent from 1997 to 2000 defending Bill &
Hillary on T.V. and radio.

[Patsy Stone]

178. She mentioned them briefly and what they did when I was talking to her

on Friday's show.

I'm sure she was holding on tightly during the Mr. Toad's Wild Ride you guys went on. :)

[Botany]

185. No during the ride mama was not happy

Clinton people have called her sponsors, her stations,
and her mangment group and threatened them w/
pay back if they did not dump Steph.

And that is the kind stuff.

[SharonRB]

I can just imagine how they feel about Randi now, too

[Botany]

196. I am limited in what I can say as per Steph ....

... but "Team Clinton" has been down right nasty.

***********

My thoughts are that Clinton has been playing the
race card on purpose. I worked for Kerry in 04 in
OH .... I was told many times "You have no thoughts
or feelings to share w/ the media or the public. Also
anybody who was in public for the campaign was given
that day's talking points ... the question for anybody
who was outfront for the campaign was .. "are they on
point?" (BTW I was a little little cog in the machine)

[bleever]

67. Here's my contribution: I just discovered that

Thin Mints from the Girl Scouts and Dunkin Donuts coffee make a heavenly combination.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

77. In college, we used to make a Dunkin run for coffee during exams.

That involved a 30 mile trip up US 1... but it was worth it. :hi:

[gkhouston]

214. Hee. I suspect that Thin Mints would go well with dog turds.

My little one has informed me that the Lemonade cookies transport her to "another reality". I'd better check the ingredients list on the box. B-)

[bleever]

219. I'll trust you on the first point.

I'd better check the second point myself.

[Patsy Stone]

46. I'm not feeling that chatty either

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

38. Walk by...I'll be by later, kids.

For now, let me just say I have never read such ridiculous stuff about Keith as I have read in GD-Pee in the past 24 hours.

[SeattleGirl]

42. Hey Berry.

Yeah, I've added A LOT of people to my ignore list in the past 24 hours.

[Patsy Stone]

45. I stayed away from most of them

But I couldn't help myself this evening:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=5063393&mesg_id=5066345

[SharonRB]

50. Good answer!

And if the Hillbots would have paid attention to what he was really saying they'd agree.

[Patsy Stone]

64. Gracias.

It was insanity in there last night, and it had very little to do with him and what he said. They heard what they expected to hear, even though he didn't say it.

[Berry Cool]

180. Nice job, Pats.

I'm losing my patience, so I think I have to stay out for a while. Sooner or later I'm going to say something that's going to get me alerted if I don't.

Sometimes some people just need to be told they're asses, though.

[RevCheesehead]

117. You need to stay away from GD: Pee....

You might pick up a UTI. :hi:

[bleever]

51. Rod Parsley

is soooo obviously a fake name.

Austin Powers should leap on him and try to pull his mask off.


:hi:

[Rhiannon12866]

61. What the hell has gone wrong with John McCain?!

I used to like him, since he went after this administration more than the Democrats did. But his behavior recently totally boggles the mind. Maybe he's getting what Reagan had...:shrug:

[Berry Cool]

181. Keith did once, too.

Said he might have voted for him, in the past.

That was obviously a long time ago.

[Rhiannon12866]

210. I wouldn't tell just anybody this, but I actually did.

It was in the 2000 primary. I was a registered Republican, at the time, even though I mostly voted for Democrats, but in the primary it was a choice between him or Bush*. And I liked McCain, too, back then. My friend's father, who was very active in Democratic politics locally, said that he wouldn't mind voting for him, either. But that was then. I voted for Al Gore in the general, obviously. I never paid much attention to politics until after 9/11. That's what woke me up, so I've tried to make up for lost time... :blush:

[Mabus]

62. You can never have too many dominionists

iirc, Moyers doesn't like him.

[bleever]

86. Armeggedon

pretty fed up with the dominionists messing with our country.

[Mabus]

91. As the third Anti-christ predicted by Nostradamus

I resemble that remark.

btw, Monday it will be official. The anti-christ will be in D.C.

[SharonRB]

96. That's no way to talk about me

Geez!

[Mabus]

102. I meant me

Not you! http://www.crystalinks.com/mabus.html

:hug:

[SharonRB]

105. I was just teasing you.

[Mabus]

113. Whew!

fwiw, I'm watching a basketball game on the internet and KO on television. I'm not doing a good multitasking job tonight.

[WolverineDG]

65. It's a man, BABY!

:hi:

dg

[bleever]

74. Saw you in the news earlier:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080306/ap_on_sc/sierra_wolverine

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

128. Clergy should never name themselves after an herb.

Unless I get to be MaryJane Doobie. :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

132. LOL!

Oh, Rev! :rofl:

[gkhouston]

215. You just want us to bake you into a brownie

so you can eat your way out. Ghiradelli's double chocolate okay? I add extra chocolate chips and a skosh of cappuccino chips to the mix, plus coffee instead of water. You should try it sometime.

[RevCheesehead]

222. ooh!

There's something I never thought of before! :rofl:

[gkhouston]

227. use the Ghiradelli dark chips (about 1/2 cup) and about 1/4 cup of the

Guittard cappuccino chips. People will follow you around and they won't be carrying butterfly nets, for a change.

[SharonRB]

58. My gaydar just went off for those guys with McLame

Log Cabin Republicans, maybe?

[Mabus]

72. My gaydar says your gaydar is probably right

He's rabidly anti-gay. Hmmmm.

[SharonRB]

60. Keith is probably jealous of Billy Crystal

[Berry Cool]

183. Oh, absolutely!

It's hilarious to listen to him rail against Billy for striking out against a bad Pirate pitcher. Yeah, Keith, and you'd do any better? The most you could probably hope for is to get hit in the ass with a bad pitch again and win first base. :rofl:

Really, I love ya, Keith, but your envy is showing. :-)

[RevCheesehead]

69. heh - Keith mispronounced "Moran."

:)

[GigiMommy]

71. Hi Everyone!!!

:hi: Just got back from dinner.

[SeattleGirl]

78. Hi Gigi!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

95. Hi SG!!!

How's it going?

[SharonRB]

84. Hi, Gigi

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

103. Hi Sharon!!

Read about your Mom. Sounds like she's doing OK. Hope you're doing well.

[Mabus]

88. You're late!

and that's what I had for dinner too. That and tacos from the Tijuana Cafe

[GigiMommy]

111. Oops, sorry 'bout that

Here, something to make up for my tardiness!

[Mabus]

120. That hit the spot

I needed that. Now it's doubly good to see you. Oh wait, I'm just seeing double. That was a strong one.

[Mabus]

81. Yay Oddball!

Earl Grey tea is not people.

[Mabus]

82. Eagle vs. Jaguar

Now you know why I watch sports.

[evlbstrd]

191. Crap, I'm late.

Told ya.

[SharonRB]

194. You're supposed to get here at the beginning of the show

Not halfway through Dan Abrams!

:hi:

Glad you're here, though.

[evlbstrd]

211. And then I wandered off.

I had to watch dinner.

[Mabus]

197. Okay, say it with me

"Countdown comes on at 8 o'clock eastern and 7 p.m. central. Mabus is the one on eastern time, not me."

Say it several times. Write it down or print it out.

edited to add (and no, you don't need to say this part): Texas A&M and Iowa State have started their game. I love basketball.

[SharonRB]

200. LOL

:rofl:

Let's see if he can follow those instructions.

[Mabus]

203. I'll probably have to wait for evlspwn to 'splain it to him

:eyes:

[evlbstrd]

212. OK, it's on the fridge.

Ever you since you moved I haven't been the same. I've come unstuck in time.

[Mabus]

223. I suggest you put it somewhere else

Like on your computer so it will be more visible.

[evlbstrd]

224. I have to go to the fridge for beer.

I'll see two sometimes.

[Patsy Stone]

83. World Cheese Championship

:)

[SeattleGirl]

87. The Rev Cheesehead Internation Invitational?

:7

[Patsy Stone]

89. We are lucky

We already have a Champion Cheese here.

[SeattleGirl]

92. We certainly do!

[RevCheesehead]

93. Stinky fingers and all.

"who cut the cheese?" is the new Hoof-Hearted. :)

[Patsy Stone]

98. But tell me

is bitch still the new black?

Go wash your hands. :)

[RevCheesehead]

131. I thought Avocado was the new Black.

That's what the catalogs are telling me.

[Berry Cool]

184. Please don't say "Hoof Hearted"

I put that one on Ignore. :rofl:

[Rhiannon12866]

97. I could never be a vegan, like DK, because I really like cheese.

I had a dream one night that I made baked ziti for Dennis and Elizabeth, LOL, but when I woke up, it dawned on me that they wouldn't eat it because it contains cheese...:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

110. I won't live in a world without cheese.

It is impossible.

And that goes both for here in the KOEB, and on my pizza.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

138. Have I told you lately that I love you?

Well, I do! :hug:

[Patsy Stone]

155. I love you too.

And I'm so sorry to read about your dad. :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

159. Thanks, Patsy.

I don't know what I'd do without you guys. :hug:

[Berry Cool]

186. Please, lock me away

And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide with my cheeselessness
I don't care what they say
I won't stay in a world without cheese.

[Rhiannon12866]

208. I sure agree! I usually get EXTRA cheese! And I add cheese to most everything I make...

But I'm not a big fan of gorgonzola, which came in second. My friend (the KO sports fan, LOL) got the mushroom and gorgonzola pizza at Pizza Uno and I tried it. I think that she preferred mine, too...:-(

And I agree with you about here on KOEB.;)

[Patsy Stone]

94. Hello to everyove who's arrived in the last half hour.

I'm having trouble keeping up with this tonight.

:hi:

[Rhiannon12866]

112. I am, too, was sick earlier, but I'm up, LOL, so wanted to see what was going on...

But I laughed out loud at the story about the thief with the ankle bracelet...:dunce:

Reminds me of a story that my mother read in the paper about two robbers who were brothers, and they got caught because the one who served as the lookout was legally blind...:silly:

[Patsy Stone]

116. Stupid criminals are always a hoot.

Sorry you're under the weather, Rhiannon. I hope you feel better.

[Rhiannon12866]

204. The guy that my mother read about thought that a cop was his thieving brother, LOL.

And thanks. I don't know what's wrong with me, since I never actually vomit, but the feeling keeps coming back. I hope that I didn't pick something up when I went to the doctor yesterday. I went for another checkup because I burned my foot really badly back in December and it's finally healing enough that I don't have to go back until July. All I need...x(

[GigiMommy]

133. Hi Patsy!!

:hi: How ya doing!?!

[Patsy Stone]

161. Doin' okay

We had beautiful weather and, other than having to be inside all day, all is well. I'm just not feeling like typing tonight.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

101. Jeez, Dumbya, can you be any more transparent?

And knock it off with the fear, fear, fear, terra, terra, terra shit! You're worse than the boy who cried wolf.

[Patsy Stone]

104. No Telecom Immunity!

I hope this comes crashing down on your head you lying, cheating sack of liquid crap. This is to protect your own ass, you weasel.

[Berry Cool]

188. Oh, the latest dumb Dubya saying had steam coming out of my ears.

He ENVIES the troops in Afghanistan because they're doing such a "romantic" thing, encouraging a "young democracy"? And if he weren't otherwise busy, he wishes he could be there with them doing it himself?

"Sack of liquid crap" doesn't BEGIN to describe it. :grr:

I got your romance right here, you dipshit.

[SeattleGirl]

106. RACHEL!!!!

:loveya:

[ralps]

107. Rachel!!!!

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

[GigiMommy]

139. Hi Ralps!

:hi: Hope the "Broadcast Gremlins" are gone and that Mike Malloy is back tonight.

[Botany]

109. F*** you bush!

Kerry's phones and computers were soooooooooooo
g.d. dirty in OH in 2004 it was not funny.

[GigiMommy]

114. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: I was proud of you last night.

[Rhiannon12866]

115. Yay! Rachel's on! These two have to be the coolest and smartest duo in the media...

:patriot:

[SeattleGirl]

121. I can agree with that 100% Rhiannon!

[Rhiannon12866]

127. I love it when Rachel's on! But I sure didn't like what she said,

that Fallon was the one who was probably standing between Bush* and an unprovoked attack on Iran... Jesus.x(

[Mabus]

130. I really wish they would give Rachel her own show

because she would absolutely blow her competition out of the water.

[Rhiannon12866]

136. That's exactly what my SO keeps saying. He's hoping that she'll replace Tucker.

Makes sense to me!:think:

[SharonRB]

137. It's already been announced that David Gregory is getting that gig

He starts Monday.

[Rhiannon12866]

189. I'd forgotten that, but my SO reminded me. I like him, too, but not as much as Rachel.

I can't get that image of him dancing with Rove out of my head...x(

[Mabus]

143. they gave it to Gregory, one of their Nantucket buddies

:tinfoilhat:

[Berry Cool]

190. I'd like to think Stretch will do a fair job

but of late he hasn't been the guy who challenges * so much as he's been the cocktail-party guy. That worries me.

[Mabus]

202. So do I

I didn't have television (or internet) for January. I haven't seen him that much at all. Of course, I have been working more than I have in the past and haven't had as much time to watch television constantly like I did when I lived in Kansas.

What do you mean the cocktail-tail party guy?

[Rhiannon12866]

192. Thanks, I had forgotten that.

I like him, too, but I'm hoping that he keeps his edge. I used to like John Roberts when he subbed for Dan Rather and did that incredible work during the Lebanon-Israeli war, but he's become unwatchable since he's been on the CNN morning show with that FIXED News reject...:puke:

[Mabus]

201. I'm keeping my fingers crossed

but you do know his wife (Beth Wilkerson) was a partner at the same law firm that brought us Michael Chertoff. She works for Fannie Mae now and works with regulators.

[WolverineDG]

122. Which one is Rachel & which one is Keith?

They're both wearing gray! :crazy: :loveya:

dg

[Rhiannon12866]

129. I thought that you were referring to the hair, LOL. On her show yesterday,

Rachel said that she just got a haircut, and then we got to see it when she showed up on MSNBC...:D

[ralps]

134. Today's worst person in the world is Billy Crystal for striking out against Paul

Moholah(sp?) :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :shrug:

[Rhiannon12866]

142. That's just silly, especially with O'Reilly still on the loose...

But I'm not a sports fan like Keith is...:shrug:

BTW, I love your menagerie...:loveya:

[ralps]

147. Hi Rhiannon12866, Thanks

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

[Rhiannon12866]

172. The black kitty reminds me of my cat who I rescued from outside.

She liked to sit right by my keyboard and, if I left the room, I was always afraid that she'd post on DU, LOL. She did add her comments to my e-mail...:D

[Botany]

140. Rev already has given me a blanket pardon on this joke

For $4,000/hour did she Spitzer or swallow?

:rofl:

[Mabus]

149. I can't believe you said that!

:spray: :rofl:

[Botany]

160. t-ball is still fun

:rofl:

[gkhouston]

216. jeez, for that much she should transfigure it into heavy water. n/t

[Patsy Stone]

144. Thank you! Try the veal! Tip your precinct captains!

Combined with the cheese contest, I'm going to say he likes us.

:loveya:

[SharonRB]

148. It at least proves that he reads us.

[GigiMommy]

145. OH NO It's Musto!!!!!!!!!!!!

:spank:

[Rhiannon12866]

153. He's not my favorite, but I've noticed that Keith has been light on celebrity news, lately.

That's usually when I go to the bathroom or take the dog out...:-)

[RevCheesehead]

156. me, too

...and I don't even have a dog. :hi:

[Rhiannon12866]

168. Well, you know that I used to have three.

I will always remember what you said to me when I was on DU on New Year's Eve 2006...:pals:

Unfortunately, I'm down to two now. I miss my baby terribly, but dealing with a puppy is more than enough. He's taken to piddling in the house again because he hates going out in the snow.:-(

[GigiMommy]

157. You know, you're right...

come to think of it.

[Rhiannon12866]

176. When Brian Unger was on for Keith, it seemed like that's all he had on.

That was my least favorite part of the show, so I'm pleased. There's probably just too much else going on, but that's not a good thing, either...:-(

[Patsy Stone]

146. It's Musto

You know, it's been long enough and I think I'm ready for some Musto.

[SeattleGirl]

151. Want some ketchup on that too?

:rofl:

[bleever]

150. Rita Wilson:

Should I know her?

[Patsy Stone]

152. Volunteers

Mrs. Tom Hanks

:hi:

[SharonRB]

154. Tom Hanks' wife

Why do you ask?

[bleever]

158. Musto suggested her for the role of Spitzer's wife.

She's the right age, and not a bad resemblance.

[SharonRB]

163. I think she's probably older,

but you're right -- it's not a bad resemblance.

[GigiMommy]

166. DING, DING, DING, DING!!!!

But who would play Eliot Spitzer?

[Patsy Stone]

170. I think he suggested Stanley Tucci

:)

[Rhiannon12866]

209. My choice would be Nicolas Cage. Think he looks a little like him.

And he does "demented" really well. Sorry to bash my own governor, but he really messed up, big time. :-(

[Rhiannon12866]

182. She's Tom Hanks' wife. I recognized her on an old Brady Bunch episode that I caught on Nick at Nite.

She was competing with Marcia for a spot on the cheerleading squad...:rofl:

[bleever]

206. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!

:rofl:

I knew someone whose voice, on the phone, sounded just like the impersonation in The Brady Bunch Movie.

[Rhiannon12866]

207. LOL! That sounds really scary...

:rofl:

[Rhiannon12866]

162. Anybody see the video I posted on Mrs. Spitzer today? Saw it on the news and thought it was cool.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=385&topic_id=104687&mesg_id=104687

[Berry Cool]

193. Thank goodness he gave Musto warnings.

Reminded him he's not on anything-goes TV.

Also, at least he had few opportunities to bring up the Unholy Trinity (Paris, Britney, Lindsay) or their sometime adjunct, Nicole.

[Rhiannon12866]

198. I just don't see the point of having him on...

Keith must find this stuff entertaining on some level, since he has it on his show, but I just don't get it...:shrug:

[Berry Cool]

229. Maybe Musto is Keith's Three Stooges.

You know how most women don't see what men see in the Three Stooges? Could be the same thing.
