The fiddle wasn't invented for over a thousand years after that.

92. Don't take things so literal

It was actually a lyre but ya know the fiddle is how it was described back home

3. I think you need to update the Chevron sign

Mine's up to 3.99 for Supreme Unleaded on the West coast

[Cali_Democrat]

7. Ya

[ut oh]

33. Pshaw 4.19 for super?

There a gas station here in SF that's already at 4.49 for super (4.29 for regular unleaded)....

[Kitty Herder]

45. And the supreme court picture, too. nt

[Rene]

82. Can't they make just ONE grade of gas for ALL cars.

and wy don't they get rid of that .9 bs.

[joshdawg]

85. Yes! Yes!

Only one grade is needed.

Oh, btw, can we do away with that silly "daylight saving" time? Last time I checked it is daylight for roughly half a day, every day, year round. Maybe right-wingers can find a way to put some in a private account. That way when they get older, they can have daylight 24 hours ....ahem...a day.

Ok, ok. I'm being a little silly here, but DST should be done away with.

[RiverStone]

10. STOP making sense.

Too late, Wright was put to rest for good today - so the media whores won't be distracted for too much longer.

K&R!

Great (but sad) post.

[Window]

11. Sigh. K/R.

Sad, depressing and, oh, so real.

17. Notice how we don't get as many of these "stories" now?...

I WONDER why? Maybe, just maybe, because now just doing the following:



serves the same purpose!

24. Too Bad Obama Won't Do a Thing About Any of That Stuff

As he's just finished denouncing the guy who brought it all up on Bill Moyers the other night.

[musicblind]

25. I have to say, as a Hillary supporter, who does worry about Wright in the national election

you made an excellent point with this post. I'm going actually rec the post. You did it by being creative and not offensive. I actually have to say, you are right to some extent. There are much more important things we should be talking about than just one topic that does not relate to our future as a nation. Though I do think some consideration should be given to the Wright situation because I worry it is going to harm the democrats in November with Obama as the nominee (which he probably will be). I hope that is not the case, but sadly the news media will make sure that it comes into play against McCain once we have a nominee.

[redqueen]

29. Interesting contrast between your response,

and the response of the Hillary supporter who posted above you.

[guyanakoolaid]

42. Should Lewinsky, Whitewater, Foster, not be given the same weight for Hillary?

In all fairness, if we're judging our candidates by how the GOP will attack them in the GE...

[musicblind]

69. personally, I don't think so

I just feel like those issues have played out. I don't feel like the Wright issue has played out though, and I think it will last until the GE. Though I could be wrong.

But, to be fair to what you are saying, I do believe that the Bosnia issue will haunt Hillary to the GE as well.

They each have become wounded for their GE battle. I guess it is a matter of opinion as to whose wounds will bleed the most. Trust me, if Obama is the nominee (and realistically his chances are much better of getting the nomination at this point) then the last thing I want is for Wright to take him down, and I will fight for him against the right wing smear machines the same as I would Hillary.

[eagertolearn]

89. Thanks for your honesty. I think the Wright issue will be very warn out

by Nov. It has been in the "news" for weeks and even republicans are beginning to wonder why it is still there. As for McCain in Nov. every republican I know have either changed to be a democrat or will vote for who ever the democratic candidate is in Nov. I've never seen anything like it. The die hard republicans say they would probably vote for nobody if McCain is their choice. My vote is for Obama but I will vote for Hillary if she is the pick as long as she stays out of the garbage from now until then!

[NatBurner]

26. *sigh*

americans are so stupid

these were the exact.same.issues from 2004

yet?

"those gays" wanna get married(!!!)

four more idiotic bush years :/

wake up people, please

please...

[Jensen]

27. Thank you, lynyrd_skynyrd ! I wonder what would happen if we mass e-mail to all our friends and the

Media!...Just asking????

[knixphan]

39. that's what I'm talkin' about!

[Barb in Atl]

57. Thanks for a great idea...

I can't do mass media - but I can email friends. You know the kind that will forward everything out of habit.

Might just get one of those, what do ya call 'em? Might get one of those "Disaffected Citizens" to pay a little attention.

Oh - and K & R

[Dammit Ann]

30. perfect.

brilliant. sad and true.

[Juan_de_la_Dem]

31. No kidding, just ridiculous

[Exilednight]

32. Where's that Chevron station at? I haven't paid $3.47 in almost a month. $3.93 a gallon here. n/t

[LibDemAlways]

51. I can top that. I paid $4.17 this afternoon in

Southern California.

[yellerpup]

36. Yep. That's what I'm talking about.

ALL those vitally important topics--except that last thing with the preacher, there--that was over yesterday. K&R! We have problems that need to be solved. Time to focus! :kick:

[Sedona]

37. k&r

.

[wiggs]

38. True. Sad that there are dozens more pictures you could have shown in every

policy area. Please...please...please....let someone show the public what this administration has done....needs to be put all together in one place so that the overall case is compelling and obvious.

[chill_wind]

41. Hundreds, even. One kind of images we'll never see though, are what humans look like

after they've been exterminated -annihilated- by white phosphorous and other weapons of choice in places like Fallujah.
Because if America had, I thnk the occupation would have been over years ago. And Americans would be in the Hague.

[wiggs]

49. I wish more people would talk about use of white phosphorous and napalm there. That

should definitely be on the list

[raystorm7]

62. Might be the lowest moment ever in the history of our MSM.

I've quit watching all cable news and have been only watching sports the last 24 hours or so.

[Jed Dilligan]

63. That's some cheap gas

Is that anywhere near Sacramento?

[rainy]

64. I'm sending this to everyone I know.

Thanks for the best post all day.

[JDPriestly]

65. Obama should have dealt with the questions about his church

and Rev. Wright before his opposition used them to embarrass him. I posted about that on DU, but everyone seemed to think I was a racist. Obama could have avoided all of this hullabaloo. This should not have taken him by surprise.

[gauguin57]

66. Who cares about Rev. Wright? Miley Cyrus posed with bare shoulders in Vanity Fair!!! SCANDAL!

Get your priorities straight! Wright is yesterday's news! Hannah Montana bared her shoulders!!!

[gateley]

67. My 11 year old next door neighbor certainly enjoyed that first photo.

WHY can't people post warnings in the sig line?

I was going to drop you a note, but you don't accept PM's from your fellow DUers.

So I'll take this opportunity to tell you I think you're insensitive and a thoughtless.

And I'm sure you care what I think. :sarcasm:

70. I'm most saddened to see "Democrats" falling for this.

[and-justice-for-all]

71. Never mind reality...

Wright is FFFFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR more important than the real issues..

I do not give a fuck what Wright said and it has no bearing on Obama as far as I am concerned..WASTE OF TIME and a COMPLETE DISTRACTION!!

[ekwhite]

72. K&R

Now that Rev. Wright has been thrown under the bus, I guess it's time for the media to play up William Ayers.

[jcla]

74. Racism is not a distraction when used to inform

about differences... unfortunately many people including the media use sound bites to distract not to inform and teach people about differences in cultural practices. If teaching was applied and extended to other things for instance the economy, the occupation of Iraq, the aftermath of Katrina and where billions are being spent on war and destruction we might be in a better place.. not distracted but focused and working on many problems that come from stereotyping, fear and bigotry.

It is too damned easy to focus on sound bites. We have got to start thinking and expanding.

Good post... but... can we learn... can we expand and see where we are going can we see each other as human beings... even our enemies.. like Bush and co. and stop this craziness to work on ALL our problems?

[Baby Snooks]

75. Don't forget the Bush Dynasty

[jpertello]

83. You make some excellent points

And about the REV JEREMIAH WRIGHT STORY. Can we put this puppy to bed now? Because, hard as it is to believe, Rev Wright didn't make headlines by speaking outrageously. The MSM made the headlines by not only carrying his comments live in their entirety, but by replaying them over and over again ad nauseum. And then discussing the comments 24/7 as if there was no other news to report. Then they all sit around in wonder at how this tumor of a story metastasized into the STORY OF THE WEEK!

Joe Scarborough: Gee, I wonder why this REV WRIGHT story won't die? Let's talk about it some more.

Mika Brzezinski: Yeah, the REV WRIGHT AND HIS OUTRAGEOUS COMMENTS STORY just won't calm down. Let's watch that clip of his speech again and ramble on some more about this very important story.

Chris Matthews: Do you think this REV WRIGHT story is all anyone else is talking about? Do you think the media has become obsessed with the REVEREND JEREMIAH WRIGHT? Let's ask these journalists and political analysts what they think of the REV JEREMIAH WRIGHT AND HIS OUTRAGEOUS COMMENTS and all speculate on what is keeping this story alive.

Wolf Blitzer: Coming up after the break we watch the National Press Club speech yet again and focus the next 120 hours on this story which, for some reason, won't die.
