Hi, podnahs!

You said it really loud on the radio....

Hi Brad! Thanks for the great shows! Hugs from DU

Admittedly, I've never been in Sibel's position with regard to a gag order, but, I'd like to ask her this: are you ever going to decide that a gag order from a moron like Ashcroft has nothing to do with the rule of law and is actually obstruction of justice, and just write the book you should have written years ago?

Backatcha, Barbs! And to the DU'ers!

Well, if Brad lets her get a word in edgewise, maybe she won't have to write a book....

Yippee! Yahoo! Whoopee!

The Spanish lawyer working to indict six former Bush administration attorneys for their roles in the US’s torture program says the case will go ahead in Spanish courts.

THAT SO ROOOOOOOOOCCCCCCKKKKKSSSSS!

Yay, Spain!

When in doubt...
Throw it out!

If only we could...
.

Egad,

Every time I refresh the page Coulter is staring at me!

Run away, run away...
.

Sanford...

Ah Yes, those good old Republican Family Values!

That's enough to keep you awake at night....

Better talk a lot to get away from that action.......

Can you believe that? What in the hell does that guy think he's doing? What planet is he on? Is he 18, or whut?

I guess you just have to avert yer eyes not to see the Coulter thing when you reload.... I certainly do.

I wish we had progressive talk radio here in NEPA on AM radio. Only rightwing crap. It seems progressive talk radio on AM radio is only in big cities or highly populated areas.

No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!

How about Sibel Edmonds commenting on wiretaps going to ISRAELI companies?

Viva my main men of La Mancha!

Israeli Wiretappers, the NSA, and 9/11: Are Members of the U.S. Govt Being Blackmailed by Israel and Others via Wiretaps?

http://bigdanblogger.blo...ers-nsa-and-911-are.html

...too late?

Sibel got that right! "Certain bloggers being catalysts" for the establishment furthering their agenda on Iran.

I may have to end up tracking down and killing this posh woman... I know I've been trying to take her tips as friendly advice, but, actually, she's getting on my nerves with that nasal Valley Girl voice talking to us like we're stone morons. Or... are we?

Huff n puff...

Crap...

First I hit new ID instead of submit, then the second time it said I had an invalid entry - third time was the charm.

Got triple Coultered on that one.

Yes, they're about to blow Iran's house down.

We all know that "rascible" isn't a word, and he really means:

Dictionary
irascible |iˈrasəbəl|
adjective
(of a person) easily made angry.
• characterized by or arising from anger : their rebukes got progressively more irascible.
DERIVATIVES
irascibility |iˌrasəˈbilitē| noun
irascibly |-blē| adverb
ORIGIN late Middle English : via French from late Latin irascibilis, from Latin irasci ‘grow angry,’ from ira ‘anger.’

Thesaurus
irascible
adjective
this hot weather has put everyone in an irascible mood irritable, quick-tempered, short-tempered, hot-tempered, testy, touchy, tetchy, edgy, crabby, petulant, waspish, dyspeptic, snappish; cross, surly, crusty, grouchy, grumpy, cranky, cantankerous, curmudgeonly, ill-natured, peevish, querulous, fractious; informal prickly, snippy.
antonym even-tempered, good-natured.

A HIGHLY unjust characterization of me!

I know everyone will agree....

"Jezebelle" is a better description than "rascible".

Hey, that Republican senator, it says: "Wife says he was going off to write, staff says he was hiking Appalachian Trail."

If by "wife", they mean "Argentinian hooker" and by "hiking the Appalachian trail" they mean "FUCKING"...then then story is true.

Tangentially to what Ms. Edmonds was saying --- why are we (the US govt.) still playing nicey-nicey with Turkey? Turkey can't even get into the EU until they cop to the Armenian Genocide, the culpability for which they have been denying since it happened. Then again.... Prescott Bush did business with the Nazis.....

Yes, Jezabelle, for sure, "Come keep me coming." Sheesh! Freudian slip!

Go, Bonnie!

LOL!

But irascible is what I heard.

I must have unexamined unconscious issues or something....

Yes, but that's because you have a literate ear. Rascible is what he said. He wrote it the other day. At least he's stopped calling me erstwhile! I don't know WHAT he was driving at with that.

Possibly he was groping for irascible...?

They worship Scott R.

Wingnuts say "Illegal is illegal", when it comes to illegal aliens. But not torture.

The rascable erstwhile posh Agent 99....

For dat er um that uh em ...

Sanford & Son. Sanford & Argentinian whore.

Here's what I don't get about Sanford: the entire media and his wife were looking for him before he probably even had his dick in the mistress! NOT a good job of "hiding" the affair! What the...???

I was even looking for him! Didn't he take precautions to fake everyone out? He goes on Father's Day, doesn't make up an excuse, he just disappears. What did he think would happen? What an idiot!

Brad spanked him!!!

Interesting show. Can I play, too?

She um er her a he um who is um...

Brad's got the willow switch out!

Don't you make an excuse? Like: "Hey, honey, I have a state meeting about the budget" and NOT on Father's Day. I mean, really! How stupid!

He disappears without an excuse, so everyone's looking for him. Looking for him while he's having an affair! How dumb can you be?

Know what I'm saying?

He didn't even make an ATTEMPT at a HALF-ASS excuse! What did he expect would happen? There was 100% chance he was going to get caught.

Hey Mark

Bye Mike

Hey, that woman's gotta be waaaaaaay better than being president, so Sanford got off easy.

He probably entered some posh hotel with the Argentinian mistress, turned the TV on before they even started fooling around, and saw ever channel was looking for him!

"SHIT! I FORGOT TO LIE! I FORGOT TO SAY EVEN A LIE! I SAID NOTHING! WHOOPS! AND IT'S FATHER'S DAY! HOLY SHIT!" Then his dick went limp. He had to take a double-dose of Viagara, and THAT didn't even work!

Don't forget that Sanford presided over the choice of the implementation of ES&S touchscreen (DRE) "voting" machines in SC. Of course, that violates South Carolina's Constitution which specifically prohibits counting votes in secret. See South Carolina Elections Are UNCONSTITUTIONAL!?!

Oh, sheesh, ANOTHER Freudian slip/pun! ...got off easy....

Seriously, the whole thing happened because he didn't even LIE! He said NOTHING to his wife and turned off his cell phone. Saying NOTHING caused his wife to be worried and contact the media. He could've said to his wife, he had a meeting or something.

This guy is a SEVERE dumbass! And they said he was a big, up and coming Republican? What? (freudian slip: up and coming)

I tellz yiz, these posh tips are driving me screaming naked off a cliff!!!!!

Aren't you SO dying to live the "glam" life?

bd: "The bottom line is this: I've been unfaithful to my wife," he said. "I've developed a relationship with a dear, dear friend from Argentina."

He's throwing gas on the fire saying "dear, DEAR" friend. My god! What a stupid thing to say!

Bad idea - saying "dear, dear friend". And "developed a relationship". Is this guy crazy?

As if people are going to say: "Oh! It's a 'dear friend'! Then it's 'OK' THAT'S DIFFERENT!". This is so stupid to say, I'm going to have to say ANOTHER stupid person wrote this for him. Someone said: "I'm an expert, here's what to say". One of his staff writers, who made it worse.

Yes, Danny, he's definitely crazy. Brains took express elevator to the basement. Nuts. Off the deep end, for sure.

It can't be released because of the Bush and Cheney States Secret laws.

Cheney knows this, the report doesn't prove his allegation. His pulling a fast one - claiming Obama won't release it because it proves his point - giving the illusion of legitimacy.

dennis blair has close ties to the Clinton family not the Obama's

Is linked to Mr. Obama by: Slim ties. He was an occasional adviser to Mr. Obama in the Senate, but does not have a long relationship with him and was not a close adviser to the campaign. He does, however, have close ties to the Clinton family, and was a Rhodes scholar at Oxford with Bill Clinton.

Cheney never would have gone on tv to convict himself unless he was 100% certain --- AND OBAMA WAS 100% CERTAIN --- he would not be prosecuted.

I hope they don't try to go to war with Spain next. I hope those guys in Spain don't get in any small planes.....

Barbs, Dennis Blair is in the Obama Administration.

And, why? Because we like you!

thanks Agent 99
I know that he is but I thought the caller thought he had close ties to Obama before he picked him, sorry about that

Brad, you forgot to say "OH, HOGSNOT!!!"

No, prob, Barbs. Thanks for clarifying.

thank you for the great show Brad and Agent 99 You rock!

CIA Denies Cheney Request To Release Intelligence Documents

Thanks, Barbs, Niners, and all the rest here! Much appreciate the kind words, support, and you bothering to pay attention and make some noise!

See ya tomorrow night! Same Brad Time, Same Brad Channel!

What's up with the technical difficulties on my blog posts about torture? It comes through initially and on the pdf. Should I try again with that info?

Perhaps I should try another link or maybe people should just google "Why does the U.S. government torture people?"

Mark, could you just come in and make comments and not always be flogging your articles? Read the rules for commenting again. I try not to be a hardass about this stuff, but I can't be letting some do it and not everyone. So, once in a while, okay, but try really just making a real comment that's not about linking your own stuff all the time. Please.

Wasn't the show about torture? It would seem that an enlightening article would be appropriate, wouldn't it? Let me know if Brad wants to feature it.

Yes, and you already had linked it, or another of your pieces. Ask Brad if he wants to feature your piece, but, please, stop repeatedly linking your own posts, even if they're on topic. That isn't commenting, it's advertising, and especially when you almost never say anything else except to link your stuff. I've asked you to cool it a bunch of times, and you never seem to understand.

"...please, stop repeatedly linking your own posts, even if they're on topic. That isn't commenting, it's advertising..."

Really, 99? Whose blog is this...?
http://neufneuf.blogspot.com/

...and how many times have you linked to it here since last week as a means to better hype your assessment of the recent events in Iran? Mark isn't spamming us. He's linking to his work.

Why does your passion (and research) on Iran deserve more leverage than Mark's passion (and research) on the state-by-state constitutionality of secret vote counting (I believe the topic was SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNMENT) or for that matter even whatever his off-topic comments re: torture were that I didn't get to read.

Mark A. Adams has sacrificed his law career (and more) to fight the bad guys in Florida who were stealing elections on behalf of this Florida voter, and I might have liked to read what he has to say, even if I've read it before.

I've read everything you've said twice. And I did it without pitching a shit-storm-fit.

Irascible. Still having trouble with how that applies, are you?

Hey, thanks for plugging my blog, Jeannie, but you might agree, unless you just want to be nasty, that someone who only ever comes here to link to his posts, and has been asked many times over the course of three years not to do that, is different from being here all the time and trying to iron out disagreements by linking to research. I think, actually, you might find that less than 1% of my comments ever link to my blog, and if you really want to investigate, you will find that many times I link stuff straight to the source here that I have in fact blogged about. Despite Mark doing the same old thing over and over and over again, he still gets to comment, even link to his stuff once in a while. In fact, you don't have to look further than this very thread! I think most bloggers and most moderators would simply have banned him by now. I think if you were in the middle of needing to be trying to be fair about the rules and fighting spam attacks and manning the show thread all at the same time, and then someone popped up to spam it with links to his latest favorite piece, you might not have a lot of patience for it either. But, whatever.

"...but you might agree, unless you just want to be nasty..."

No, 99, I'm not at all trying to be nasty. You should know that about me by now. Nor am I trying to pile-drive your judgment concerning what I'm sure is a difficult and largely thankless task (especially on days Brad writes about Bill O'Reilly.)

I was sincerely asking for the distinction. I didn't see one. In fact, it would've seemed to me that Mark A. rarely posts here at all. When he does he goes whole-hog but I think you'd be hard pressed to single out any one in this movement for being long-winded.

1% of the time? 'K. I believe you.

I guess I'm just becoming a little confused about what you do and don't 'have a lot of patience for.' It's becoming hard to guess.

...maybe you could post them along with the rules for commenting?

No, no, we want the list to be short....

Gov. Mark Sanford apologized to his cabinet today but did not resign - comparing himself to the biblical figure of David.

“(David) fell mightily, he fell in very significant ways, but was able to pick up the pieces,” Sanford said at the start of the meeting. “It began with a larger quest well expressed in the book of Psalms on the notion of humility.”

Hey Brad,

Thanks for doin' what you do. Livin' on the east coast, I don't get the liberal point of view very often. I frequently listen to conservative talk radio and frankly, I can't believe my ears. The intellectual level of discourse is a bit disturbing. The close-minded nature of the conservative side precludes open discussion and ultimately, will lead to their downfall.

Sybil Edmonds is a wonderful whistleblower. It does not take a rocket scientist to understand that gagging her means that gov is hiding something serious. However, Sybil is not the only patriot "gagged."

Ellen Mariani, a 911 widow who did not take the government "hush" payoff money and who has 2 lawsuits going presently has also been "gagged" as well as her attorney from talking to the media about her lawsuits.

Someday, her story MUST be heard.
