I love The Onion. Did you see the article on â€˜Intelligent Fallingâ€™ in tribute to the Kansas City Board of Educationâ€™s edict on Intelligent Design. I sent it to friends who thought it was a serious piece and started the usual rants of frustration against the extreme right.

Happy May Day to the Socialists, Communists, Progressives and all other fellow travelers who enjoy this and other Leftist sites.

FYI, the freeways are a breeze here in San Diego County this morning with the “Day without Illegal Immigrants”. Can we do this more often?

‘Til later…

thanks marie – good to know…
bodman’s “9or10 years ago” remark – well, it sure SEEMS that long, if not longer… can’t take much more…

I saw MTP on the evening re-broadcast.
Durbin well represented the Democratic perspective on MTP. Bodman was a joke.
The energy men actually defended obscene profits.

Dick Durbin’s look is a classic…if this era we live in wasn’t so utterly sad and pathetic. Russert should have stopped the interview there and had Bodman leave.

Why do we have high oil prices? Iraq ! Iraq was a major supplier of oil before the war and now it can’t even meet it’s own needs. I’m surprised the Democrats don’t even mention this. Of course the Repubs won’t.

marie – i’m late to this thread – i saw parts of MTP this a.m., only because durbin was on… the few times i heard him speak, i had to nod and whoop – he seemed to hold up and hold on to the right ideas…
if you watched it, or know of it – what did you think?

Again folks, mighty aphrodite is a troll. A troll is a creature who lives under the bridge. It doesn’t care where you’re going or why. It doesn’t care what’s going on above the bridge. It just grabs any ankle it can reach. It’s easy to free your ankle (with a stick or something). Just ignore trolls and they go away. Pay attention to them and they think they’re strong.

P.S. Your notation of I-R-I as vulgar omits the champions of the vulgarians, Ryan and his sister.

FAR FROIM IT miss you can’t be real…RYAN has never advocated a small section of the vulgarties of those recanted by IRI, but since you and IRI are bascially fellow neo-con appologist travellors you’r be loath to critize his rantings against the basic humanity all GOD’s children posess…….still have the neo-con log stuck in the eye eh?

Watching this man’s performance, one is reminded of a fish, flopping around on land, desperately trying to find its way home.

If my theory of how Bush chooses his cabinet is correct (he purposely surrounds himself with people so incompetent, they make him look good), this man will stay. If not, or if Bodman recognizes how poor his performance was, he’ll be leaving .. soon.

You are a drama queen.

There are a few here even more vulgar than IRI, and on occasion, it is you MA. IRI might be outrageous, but it’s an act. Just like your act that you are a married woman with four children and a law career. If you had any two of those things you’d neither have the time nor the inclination to be in here. My friends with two children and a career hardly have time for themselves. They don’t spend free moments on blogs. They spend it sleeping…

As the â€œUnfailingly MOST Polite Voice of Dissentâ€, I must note that your post in sadly, a lie. Having never been banned for vulgarity or coarse language proves you and the truth are strangers.

Comment by mighty aphrodite â€” April 30, 2006 @ 7:08 pm

Then how come you’re the only one patting yourself on the back. you’re NEVER polite. Rude, crude and obnoxious are general descriptives applied to your posts habitually.

So much for ignoring me. I knew you couldn’t. You like any attention no matter how much. Sad little man.

Clif – I agree with you about lobbyists – from oil concerns to labour unions, a pro-abort or pro-birth group. I favour a flat tax on private, public and corporate income. No more withholding from employees. – they would be much more cognizant of the amount of money our government wastes through vile earmarks and pork if they had to write a check or debit monthly. (I suppose this defines “stupidity” in your thin book – but your defintions sheet really could use updating.)

MA I actually agree IRI is more vulgar,

you instead more stupid……

MA you mean the TAX code written by lobbyists for the oil companies enacted by congressional personnel who got campaign contributions from the oil industry, and today enacted by the executive branch which is lead by two oil industries executives who have basically toed the oil industry line even K3en Lays before bush forgot who he was, and Dick Cheney who had the oil executives in on his “secret” energy task force, that tax code, why not let the oil companies use their money and not ask the other tax payers make it up for those rich slobs?

And exactly what competitors do you have in mind,,,, china,,,,Dubai,,,,Mexico,,,,Russia,,,, because almost all American companies have not even wanted to build new ones it would lower the profits from the ones they already operate, and given the times like this where the refineries not supply is the real bottle neck, the profits from refinery operations are great….

Unbelieved posts – “As the repeated receipient of the â€œMost Vulgar Poster on TPâ€ award, you should go ahead and take all that credit. No really, you deserve full credit for your bad behavior.” –
