Edited on Fri May-30-08 05:12 PM by kenny blankenship
and drinks.

I can't think of a movie I've seen him in where he wasn't doing one or the other or both. I guess it's a "straw that broke the camel's back" kind of thing, but the initial report was like she just found out that the rich comedian she married has -gasp- substance abuse problems.

48. Living After Midnight
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone

I took the city 'bout one A.M, loaded, loaded
I'm all geared up to score again, loaded, loaded
I come alive in the neon light
That's when I make my moves right

Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone

Got gleaming chrome, reflecting steel, loaded, loaded
Ready to take on every deal, loaded, loaded
My pulse is racing, I'm hot to take
This motor's revved up, fit to break

Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone

I'm aiming for ya
I'm gonna floor ya
My body's coming
All night long

The air's electric, sparkin' power, loaded, loaded
I'm getting hotter by the hour, loaded, loaded
I set my sights and then home in
The joint starts flying when I begin

That the NY Post was anathema to Clinton supporters, just one week ago today, when they broke the Hillary-RFK story.

33. The Post...
Most people outside of NY do not understand how influential this paper is. Almost all late night jokes start here, and over the past ten years alot of other media outlets take their cues from the post on what stories to pursue. It's one of the cores of our MSM "Echo Chamber"

Pay attention to what they do not talk about.

They are a success in New York because its gossipy, cheap, and easier to read on the subway than the Times -- no lie...

40. Bullshit. The Post is given away on the street corners because they can't sell
the pile of fishwrap. They are about the farthest thing away from a success as you can have. The Post has been bleeding money for years. Fortunately, Murdoch has lots to waste.

43. But the Daily Snooze had the better sports pages and comics when I lived in NYC.
Mike Lupica on hockey was great. Pair him with Bloom County and I read the Times on the weekend.

The Post does influence the NY media center, though.

No doubt about it.

42. So Clinton supporters are left to posting the front page of the NY Post?
Everyone on DU knows what that the Post is a paper owned by Murdoch that should only be used to wipe your ass with.

How sad that you're actually using the New York Post. That's really embarrassing for you.

49. Oooooo! Some kinds of poetic justice are almost too cruel.

I'm totally laughing with your variation on the Fish song running thru' my head :spray:

It'll be so nice when we can lay these lines directly on McCain. We dems could work out the entire song, but to mock McCain and his smear machine when it really gets going (which will be when Hillary concedes and nobody is doing it for him).

Hillary and her creatures are giving McCain such a free ride... It's like, thru' Penn and Black, thru' Carville and Matalin, Hillary's campaign team has been so corrupted from within that it is run by proxy by McCain. Or rather, by the kindly folk who bought and paid for McCain. To my mind this connection (a blunt fact) signals a critical lack of good judgement in Hillary Clinton. And McCain is in parallel with that.

McCain, hero that he might or might not have been, is now a totally bought and paid for man. He's nothing but a shell, but he has traces of dignity that cannot recognize that he's lost it. Whatever he might have had. So, to me, it's cognitive dissonance when I hear him speak.

He'll no more win than Hillary will. Obama is the person who has it *now*, who is destiny in the making, and the way that his campaign inspires our highest ideals is simply beautiful.

69. Actually, it's a call-back from RHPS
The line about "2,4,6,8, show us how you masturbate!" is an audience call-back for Rocky Horror Picture Show. I'm a little young for Country Joe and the Fish. RHPS is more my age group (early 40's).

67. It was a crappy sermon, IMO, but
I don't judge an entire church by one (guest) sermon, esp. when taken out of context. The whole context is too complex for that - and that context includes *weeks* of round-the-clock looping of a Wright soundclip, it includes *weeks* of character assassination directed not just at Wright but the whole church, by the MSM, and it includes Hillary and her campaign using this material to smear Obama by association.

Even you must see why the congregation of that church would be proud of the achievement of their fellow parishioner, Obama. In that volatile context of pride and resentment, in a church where emotional displays are the norm (very baptist-like, it appears), there would naturally be cheers and jeers during a sermon like Pfleger's.

On the other hand, I thought Fr. Pfleger's was a terrible sermon, both in content and style. I thought it was manipulative and dishonest. However, I also don't think it's right to attribute that dishonesty to Obama. I don't think it's right for Hill supporters to seek out and publicize every such wrong they can find, done by anyone that might be associated somehow with Obama (however a reach), demanding that Obama immediately respond with denunciations etc. I think that's just dirt-digging negativity which has no positive spin that can help the Dem cause, or Hillary's cause.
