Thank you.

That is all.

[Patsy Stone]

1. He's here and so am I

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

8. Hi Patsela!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

40. Me, too!

:hi: Change of plans. Too much rain tomorrow, so I decided to cuddle with the kitties one more day.

Thanks for showing up, Keith! :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

43. Yay!

We're both glad to see you. :hi:

[Berry Cool]

66. Very glad to see you too!

Very glad to see all of you!!! :hi:

[RevCheesehead]

69. Hi, Berry!

Notice how I changed my plans today, then Keith ends up here tonight? :rofl:

Honestly, I don't think he could pass up the opportunity to trash the debate.

[Berry Cool]

2. YEAAAA! WORST...DEBATE...IN THE WOOOOOOOORLD!!!!!!

Keith's here, and he said it! :bounce:

[SharonRB]

3. That's what I would have used for my thread title

if I had gotten here first.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

9. Hi Sharon!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

18. Me too, if I'd started it after Keith started.

Oh, what the heck...

[Berry Cool]

4. OMG, what a horrible outfit.

Still, he's a sight for sore eyes. :loveya:

"And to think I got hell because I asked Obama about Barry Bonds!"

[SharonRB]

13. That was my first thought, too

It's really awful.

[Berry Cool]

33. Yeah, remember when Keith was a "racist" because he asked the black guy

the sports question????

I remember it well. Yes, he was obviously in the tank for Hillary, but did he have to go and SHOW it so much?? :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

35. Worst. Tie. In the Woooooorld!

:hi:

[bunny planet]

30. It was worse seeing it on the teevee just now. I'd really like to push a grapefruit

in her face, and I don't ordinarily go there. I'm a lover not a fighter but Zellary, Charlie and George S. sure got me pissed off last night.

[Patsy Stone]

5. Please sit on your jacket tails, Keith.

It looks like you have a yoke around your neck.

[SaveAmerica]

6. He's leading with my new sig picture...

[Patsy Stone]

14. Nice! Here's my new favorite picture.

:hi:

[SharonRB]

16. Now that's hot!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

20. Right?

Grrrrrrr.

Someone in the thread I found it in said his Men In Black name is O.

:hi:, Shar!

[SharonRB]

22. LOL

He does look right out of the movie in that shot. Love him in the sunglasses.

[SaveAmerica]

25. Resevoir dogs? (I only know of it from Coupling, but think of the show when I see it)

[SaveAmerica]

19. I'm starting to think he doesn't take a bad one! I even like the pizza one

[SeattleGirl]

21. That is a great picture!

:loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

46. Super Yummmm!!

:9

[bunny planet]

64. They're ain't enough o's in smooooooooth for him.

Nice pic.

[GigiMommy]

80. COOL!!!!!!!

Piere Trudeau comes to mind.

[SeattleGirl]

24. I loved it when he brushed his shoulders off.

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

7. Hi Berry! Howdy all!!

I DO NOT CARE ABOUT FLAG PINS EITHER!!!!

:hi:

[SharonRB]

10. I still want to know why no one seems to care that Hillary

doesn't wear one.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

11. Exactly.

:crazy:

[Berry Cool]

15. Hillary is a "better baggage handler" than Barack!!

:rofl: I thought the black guys were supposed to be the porters!!! :sarcasm:

A Kossack said he's going to be a guest tonight to discuss this mess. Can't wait.

[SharonRB]

17. Who's going to be a guest?

A Kossack or Barack?

[Berry Cool]

29. Kossack.

Sorry about the unclarity.

But yeah, O does look like a Man in Black.

[RevCheesehead]

50. He should talk about the hypocrites who wear the pin...

and then shred the Constitution.

[ralps]

12. Hi BerryBush, Hi Everyone! I posted a thread in GD about Will Bunch's column

on the debate. Here's the link- http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3172469
so I'm hoping you all can check it out.

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

[SeattleGirl]

23. Hi ralps!

That article by Will Bunch was great!

[ralps]

26. Hi SeattleGirl!! Yes it was!

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

[Berry Cool]

77. I K&R'ed it, but the link to the article appears to be broken.

Ah, but the other one posted works.

[ralps]

113. Thanks BerryBush & I noticed that after the other post WTF??

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

[GigiMommy]

83. Hi Ralps!

:hi: That's a GREAT article!

[ralps]

114. Hi GigiMommy! Yes it is!

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

[bunny planet]

27. Watching this debate replay on my teevee makes me even madder than I was

watching it (mostly listening to it) on my computer last night. Seems as if Obama didn't need to go to Fox News to do any debate, they brought the Fox news to him. Geesh, what a disgrace. In good news, I donated to Obama last night for the matching fund contribution. Today I got a note from the person who matched my funds, and he told me he was a health insurance executive who had changed his mind after the debate and decided on Obama. He said he disagrees with him on a lot of issues but at least he's the one who wants to talk about the issues. This person was infuriated by the ABC moderators bullshit questions and he made his move. Good news. Obama won, Hillary looked really smarmy last night, I didn't think it was possible for her to shoot herself in the foot again but she managed. She is delusional if she thinks she can roar back in 2012. She better not even think about running on the Joementum Independent Democrat ticket (wtf is that anyway) but who could put it past her.

[SharonRB]

31. That's pretty cool

Sure says something to me coming from a health insurance executive.

[bunny planet]

39. Here's one of his exact quotes

' I am a sales agent in the health insurance industry and even I know there is a perfect storm waiting to happen!!!! ' Then he said he'd be choosing Obama.
Way coool, way to go ABC and Hillary.

[SharonRB]

45. Oh, he's a sales agent, not an executive?

Still impressive, though.

[bunny planet]

58. yeah, I had to go back and check exactly what he said. So he's not a vp or

an executive director but he's in a position to know, that's for sure, that we're fucked if we don't do something to change things, lots of things.

Can you believe Stephanopoulos actually thinks they asked 'hard questions' about topics that had come up since the last debates. Soooo, how come he didn't ask Hillary about Mark Penn hmmmm, or bring up that fundraiser of hers who is in jail now for embezzling or something like that? She got the softballs and he got sandbagged, obvious. Denying it just makes it worse.

[Patsy Stone]

32. That's a very cool story

That "debate" was a disgrace.

:hi:

[bunny planet]

48. It made me physically ill.

She cannot be the nominee, I just don't know how I can ever force myself to vote for her. I never ever ever thought I'd ever be able to say that.
Fuck a duck, I'm a yellow dawg democrat, this just sucks.

[Berry Cool]

36. I swear to God, if she runs as an independent this year, I'll choke.

There is no faster way to ensure four more years of Bush.

[SaveAmerica]

37. Are they still doing the matching event?

[SharonRB]

42. Yes. I got an e-mail today.

But I donated a couple of months ago and can't do it again right now.

[SaveAmerica]

52. Thanks, I'll do it too

[bunny planet]

44. Yes, as far as I know they are. I'm thinking of donating again.

Twice the bang for your buck.

[RevCheesehead]

62. Do you have a link for that?

It's time to pony up the Benjamins. :)

[bunny planet]

70. www.barackobama.com

[RevCheesehead]

73. Could it really be that easy?

Thanks - I'm going over there right now! :bounce::bounce:

[bunny planet]

79. Yeah!!!!!

Let's show ABC that we don't like their one-sided, bashing, gotcha, no issues, so called debate and we're speaking with our wallets.

[RevCheesehead]

85. I DID IT!!! I DONATED!!!

:bounce::bounce: Damn, I feel good! :bounce::bounce:

[SharonRB]

88. Yay for Rev!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

Hi Sharon!

Now I have to catch up on the thread! :hi:

[bunny planet]

91. You're the best Rev.

You might get a letter from your matching funds person too, was that still in effect?

[RevCheesehead]

93. I did!

Rev. Monica is upset at the attacks on her church and her candidate.
I guess someone really does read our profiles, huh? :)

[bunny planet]

96. wowie wow wow, you already found out your match?

That's awesome.

[RevCheesehead]

102. It was instantaneously posted on the website!

Then it asked if I wanted my donor to know my e-mail address. I don't know if she'll write or not, but at least she knows she's not alone. :)

[bunny planet]

105. Oh, I get it, you must have been her match.

I donated late last night and got an instant message that I'd be notified as soon as they found a match for me, and that they might want to write me a note. Then this afternoon when I checked my email, there was a message from my matching donor. How cool is this?

[SaveAmerica]

This is the first time I've ever donated to a campaign - I usually just

volunteer. You're right it does feel good to be a part of something driven by the people.

[RevCheesehead]

104. Abso-frickin'-lutely!

Hey! It's good to see you again! :hi:

[SaveAmerica]

125. Howdy!! Thanks, I definitely need to hang out here a while to repair my

ulcer, you guys are hilarious.

[SharonRB]

129. We're the calmest, friendliness place on all of DU

Welcome to the KOEB. :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

28. #5 Philly Phallout

:rofl:

[bunny planet]

34. Increase her negatives Dana. Too late, they've increased considerably.

[Berry Cool]

41. Tom Shales ripped ABC a new one

and Joey Scars was talking about it this morning, but only for a few minutes before he returned to the REAL issue: "But what ABOUT Jeremiah Wright???"

[Berry Cool]

49. And Keith just pats himself on the back, but I can't blame him.

During the bumper tease, when he rattled off a truckload of "issues" questions we could have heard asked during the debate, I thought "He's auditioning to moderate again. He just rattled off a better set of questions in fifteen seconds than we heard all last night."

And then, he said..."Those were the questions I asked at the forum I moderated last August!"

[bleever]

82. "Joey Scars"?

Did you make that up?

I think we all need mob names.

[RevCheesehead]

90. Yeah - -

too bad "Big Pussy" was already taken. :evilgrin:

[bleever]

108. You could be "Mama Swiss",

because you are a holy cheese.

[RevCheesehead]

112. I love it!

But Merh calls me "Pope Cheesy" - is that a conflict of interest? :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

115. Nah, others have called him that first.

I think I want to be "Principessa."

[SharonRB]

38. I'm sure familiar with that scenario

Endorse the other guy, but don't work your tail off to get him elected. This is totally different than my local situation, though. We've GOT to do whatever we can to elect a Dem president.

[ralps]

47. LOL Keith says "Where's the beef" on last night's debate!!

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

[SeattleGirl]

51. All bun, no beef.

[Berry Cool]

56. He's the Kossack. Greg Mitchell.

Editor & Publisher guy. Yeaaaa!!

[GigiMommy]

53. Hello All!!!

:hi: That debate stunk!

[SharonRB]

54. Debate? There was a debate?

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

99. Hi Sharon!!

:hi: How's everyone?

[SharonRB]

106. We're doing as well as can be expected at this point

I still cry at the drop of a hat when I talk to anyone about my mom. My dad will be back at the end of the month.

[RevCheesehead]

110. .....

:hug::hug::hug:

[Berry Cool]

117. It's to be expected.

It's good that your dad will be back. You need to be together. :hug:

[GigiMommy]

126. ....

:hug: :hug: That's from me and Cassie.

[SeattleGirl]

55. Hey George, that freakin' letter was written BEFORE the planes hit.

And when the Weather Underground was active, OBAMA WAS 8 YEARS OLD!!!!

[Botany]

57. K.O. "The Flag Pin Crap."

:bounce:

BTW

Weather Undergound .... I am a member

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3172526

[Berry Cool]

60. And thank you, sir, for the KOOS.

:loveya: MSNBC must know how I love the back of Keith's head, they're using this "Keith looks at big screen" effect a lot now for remote guests.

And did Keith HAVE to say "You don't HAVE to sex these debates up, they sex THEMSELVES up" while I was drooling over his KOOS?!? :banghead:

[Patsy Stone]

67. Just got a little more too

Greg looks massive on that screen and Keith looks like a little kid when talking to him.

As Crow T. Robot would say, "I'm huge!"

[SaveAmerica]

68. So nervous but I must ask, What's his KOOS?

[Patsy Stone]

72. Are you sitting down?

:)

Keith Olbermann Otter Shot.

The back of his head resembles an otter's fur, and Berry wants to pet it, among other parts.

[SaveAmerica]

78. Ha Haaaaaaaa!! I really needed the laugh!! OMG! The way I feel about

mmmbuuushed seems so insignificant now!! Yep, in good company.

[Berry Cool]

84. I'm glad this was explained for you by Pats. I would have been too ashamed.

Trust me, SaveAmerica, any secret silly lusts you may harbor for Mr. Olbermann are probably peanuts compared to some of ours.

Personally, I'm especially vulnerable to the back of his head, his hairy hands and wrists, and (and this is the worst) the little dent in his upper lip.

I'll stop now.

[SaveAmerica]

98. Nothing to be ashamed of, it's great! The name is hilarious though!

Otter Shot!!!

[RevCheesehead]

136. Nothing says KOOS like actual pictures:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=315&topic_id=108240&mesg_id=108378

[SaveAmerica]

137. Those pictures match perfectly!! The bottom two especially...

[RevCheesehead]

138. Thank you for noticing that!

It took a little while, but I think it was well worth the effort. :)

[Patsy Stone]

59. Yeah! Talking to Greg Mitchell from E&P

That was quite an article about ABC's ridiculous behavior.

Always nice to see him. :hi:, Greg!

[SaveAmerica]

61. 50,000 shoes hitting TVs!! At least!!

[bleever]

63. Look at all that otter shottage for Berry.

He loves you.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

65. Good point about George S giving even the appearance of

conflict of interest last night.

Disgusting, is what George was.

[Berry Cool]

71. Um, Countdown staffers...

it's spelled "buffoon," not "bafoon."

[Berry Cool]

74. And Keith just proved he knows how to pronounce Irondequoit.

But why not, he has a sister near Rochester.

[SeattleGirl]

75. Was that a mini-special comment?

You get 'em, Keith!

[Patsy Stone]

76. Sounded like it to me

:thumbsup:

[SaveAmerica]

81. That is exactly why I watch KO, he won't back down

[Berry Cool]

92. Yes.

And now here's Rachel, saying it was burying the lead not to pull up to the top this idea that Hillary made it sound like she'd decide on her own to strike back at Iran if it attacked ANY Middle Eastern country we are friendly with!

[GigiMommy]

86. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

89. It's my mind-meld twin!

:loveya:

[GigiMommy]

101. Tee hee hee!

:loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

87. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

97. Keith and Rachel are right, Pat Puke-Cannon once again served last night

as the blind squirrel who occasionally finds a nut.

He found THAT nut right away.

[SeattleGirl]

100. He sure did.

And good on him for doing that. (And THAT is something I rarely ever say about Uncle Pat.)

[SharonRB]

94. Not gazillion, Keith

A brazilian years!

[Botany]

95. Thank you Sen. Clinton for bringing gas to the mid-east fire.

Mean and stupid.


BTW Obama has said Gore won in 2000 and he would
investigate the crimes of bush & company. I like that guy.

[Patsy Stone]

107. I'm with ya.

I screamed "Yeah!" when he said that Sunday night.

Hey, he's playing the Dick Morris remarks Steph was all over yesterday.

[Botany]

116. Hillary the Commie who made 109 million $s

BTW some people @ our local progressive radio
station want me for an hour this saturday to hear
what I have to say ..... this should real interesting.

Is it bad form to use it to hit on women? :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

118. No.

For a good time go to my website, www.botanysreallyeasy.com.

You'd better go and do that radio thing, y'hear?

[Botany]

It will be on the web too.

WVKO 1580 from 12:00 to 1:00 this saturday

Do you think bringing up Rex Sean is a bad thing?

[Berry Cool]

134. Yeah, I was wondering what he was going to say to last night's asinine question

"How would you use George W. Bush in your administration?" or whatever the question was that Hillary answered by saying something stupid like "I think ALL former presidents can be of use to a new administration" (Yeah, but especially a certain one, right, Hill?)

I thought "I hope he doesn't want to answer that question, because what he really wants to say is 'Um, as a janitor' or 'As an example of what NOT to do' or my personal favorite, 'Making license plates, while wearing an orange jumpsuit, along with the rest of his administration.'"

[Patsy Stone]

103. LOL, Rachel!

"This was a moment when Pat Buchanan ended up taking a right turn, and a right turn, and ended up so far to the right that he hit me as I was making my left turn."

Talking about Hillary's newly announced Imperial Presidency and her readiness to attack Iran.

[Berry Cool]

And the Prostitute Toe-Sucker wins WPITW again!!!!

:applause: Love how Keith puts the emphasis on "DICK" when he says his name!!!

[ralps]

109. Today's worst person in the world is Dick Morris of Fixed News for saying that

Hillary was a Communist after writing in his book that she was not a communist! LOL :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

120. Keith couldn't resist laying it on heavily about Darth Cheney mentioning him.

I hope he does even more imitations of him.

[Berry Cool]

123. AND HE DID!!!!!!!

He did "Those who are tardy do not get fruit cup" again!!!! :rofl:

Marry me, Keith. Please. I wil laugh at you forever. Whenever we're not having hot monkey sex, that is.

[bunny planet]

111. Meanwhile back in the issues related news

Check out the Government Accountability Office's sobering report on the current state of our 'war on terra' under the heading 'combatting terrorism' report came out today. Nowhere in the news however, not yet anyway.

http://www.gao.gov/

[bleever]

119. How can they sit and laugh at the jokes of a war criminal?

Feh!

[Patsy Stone]

121. I don't know

I was wondering that myself.

:hi:

[SharonRB]

124. Me three

Just looking at him makes me want to :puke:

[Patsy Stone]

130. He's an evil, awful man

And it's disgusting that he's not in jail.

[SharonRB]

131. Maybe someday he will be.

[Patsy Stone]

133. Well...

We can dream, can't we?

[RevCheesehead]

139. I'm thinking more like an eternal cell...

smokin' with fire and brimstone.

[Botany]

128. The joke about shooting somebody ... what a hoot

If Cheney was not rolling with the Mayo Clinic that
old guy would have gone into shock and died.

[bleever]

140. Then it would have been his family's

job to apologize.

[Patsy Stone]

122. The second time he made a "fruit cup" joke.

:loveya:

[bunny planet]

127. Cheney's just having a good ol' time being Beelzebub isn't he?

He doesn't even break a sweat. Just cracks himself up.
Oy. I'd almost laugh myself if he wasn't destroying the world my children have to live in.

[Botany]

132. Almost killing somebody in a hunting accident after drinking ....

.... and he laughs. My best friend's son just got back from
Iraq .... Dick wouldn't last 10 seconds in his unit .... they all
know the war has no point except oil and the Iraqis they train
during the day will try to kill them later.

[Berry Cool]

135. Oh, he thinks it's great fun.

Just like it's great fun to joke about looking for WMDs in the White House. "They gotta be here somewhere!"

Eat shit and die, you evil evil thing.

At least Keith is on his radar. Of course, that makes me fear for Keith.
