KOEB Meeting 5/26/09 Korean Nukes and Gay Marriages and Supreme Court Nominees, Oh My! Edition

[Berry Cool]

:hi: Welcome to the Tuesday after the long holiday!

The news is definitely back from vacation, and so had better be Keith. You had better be here too.

[SeattleGirl]

1. SeattleGirl, present and accounted for!

I left work early today, as I didn't want to miss this day in the clubhouse!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

2. It should be a big one.

Some bad news, though...another death in Keith's family, so to speak.

That poor 4-year-old daughter of Mike Tyson's has died. :cry:

[SeattleGirl]

4. I'm out of the loop. What happened to Tyson's daughter?

[SharonRB]

7. Freak accident -- she's been on life support

She got strangled with a treadmill cable. :cry:

[SeattleGirl]

11. OMG! That is so sad!

:cry:

[Patsy Stone]

9. Got her neck caught in the belt of a treadmill

She was on life support yesterday. Terrible tragedy.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

13. That poor baby.

:cry:

[GigiMommy]

52. What a sad story.

The loss of a child is absolutely unbearable. There are no words.

[ralps]

3. Hi Berry Cool! Hi Everyone!

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

[SeattleGirl]

6. Hi ralps!

Big news day, huh?

:hi:

[ralps]

16. Hi SeattleGirl!!! For sure!

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

[ralps]

19. & Yay My cable tv's working again!!

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

[Patsy Stone]

21. Now, Wolvie's is out.

I think it's a C-O-N-spriacy.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

5. And Mancow

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

8. Patsy!!

That will be interesting to see that interview!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

15. Certainly will. I'm impressed he's got Gibbs.

Of course, DU will throw him under the bus because he also has Turley on, and if they are to be believed over in GD, Turley said Sotomayor hasn't the intellect of Scalia, and he said Thurgood Marshall was not intelligent.

I don't know how much of that to believe, given the level of hatred for Turley based on a) his criticism of Obama b) his support for the Big Dog's impeachment.

[SeattleGirl]

24. Many of the folks in GD and GD-Pee are addicted to anger.

I got jumped on a few days ago by several people for pointing out their hyprocracy.

:eyes:

[WolverineDG]

29. That's the way it is in GD & GDP

they've got to be bitching about something & sometimes, the stupider the better. I've been hiding threads all day.

dg

[SeattleGirl]

33. I know.

There are now several people over there who think I hate teh gays. They didn't read what I posted; they just got pissed that I didn't blindly follow along in the pissing parade. Oh well. Got to me for a couple of days, and then I decided, they've made up their minds, and no matter what I did or what I said, I couldn't "prove" anything to them.

So, they can keep on with their anger addition; I'll keep using my mind.

[Patsy Stone]

32. Everytime I post in GD and GDP

I ask myself why. This morning I asked a simple question, and all of a sudden, I found I had entered the Argument Clinic.

[SeattleGirl]

35. It's so easy to find yourself there, isn't it, even if you make the most

innocuous of comments.

[Patsy Stone]

39. This was so stupid.

They were just arguing because they had nothing else to do. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=8431974&mesg_id=8431980

[SeattleGirl]

44. I know.

And now, look out! I'm sure the missiles are being shot off big time over there now!

[SharonRB]

45. It was stupid

and I agree with your initial comment. I thought the same thing when I heard he was making the announcement today.

[Patsy Stone]

47. You shouldn't listen to me

Because I only listen to Suzanne Malveaux. :eyes:

[WolverineDG]

67. And watch American Idol

:hug:

I bet you order corn-flake crusted fried chicken at Olive Garden too!

dg

[SharonRB]

36. I don't bother. n/t

[SharonRB]

12. Hey, Pats

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

38. Mancow!?!

A Right-Winger on Countdown????:wow:

[Patsy Stone]

43. It is surprising.

I often wonder why there aren't more of them on there. As much as I love KO, I wish he'd have people he disagrees with on the show more often.

:hi:, GG!

[GigiMommy]

55. Hi Patsy!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Patsy Stone]

10. Hi, Robert Gibbs!

:loveya:

[bleever]

20. Gibby! The Gibster!

The Gibertarian!


Okay, I'm done.


:hi:

[SharonRB]

23. The Gibmeister!

[bleever]

28. Gibmelibertyorgibmedeath!

Somebody stop me.

[Patsy Stone]

26. The Gibbanator.

The Gibbmeister. Gibby, Gibby bo bibby...

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

50. Gib gibminey Gib gibminey Gib gib ger-ee!

I couldn't help it. I had to join in.:rofl:

[SharonRB]

51. ...

Supercalagibbiliciousexpealidocious

[SeattleGirl]

54. ....

:rofl:

[GigiMommy]

56. ...

:rofl:

[WolverineDG]

14. My cable is out

for some reason, the cable is out in my area. All I'm getting on my cable box is a -28, which is better than the -29 that was on it an hour ago. At least, I hope that's a good sign.

:banghead:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

17. Worst.Timing.Ever.

So sorry. :(

:hug:

[SharonRB]

18. Sounds like it's going in the right direction

:hi:

Sorry your cable is out. :(

[Berry Cool]

22. You can tell Keith is 100% for this SCOTUS pick.

Because:

1. she grew up in the neighborhood where he was born

2. she singlehandedly saved the sport of Baseball in 1995

[SeattleGirl]

27. And don't forget, she's also a Yankees fan.

But I won't hold that against her.....

[Berry Cool]

42. Oh yeah, of course!

She is among The Elite... :puke:

[SeattleGirl]

25. Arrgh! That's so frustrating!

[Berry Cool]

40. Man, that sucks.

You will have to watch Keith after the fact on the MSNBC site. Or download his podcast.

[GigiMommy]

30. Hi Everybody!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: Hope everyone had a nice weekend!

[SharonRB]

34. It was nice

As you know, the weather was fab.

Went clothes shopping Saturday and spent too much, finally switched my closets for summer and went to a movie Sunday, got hubby to go down to Riverwalk yesterday. We hadn't been down there yet -- it's really nice and so far, very, very clean.

[GigiMommy]

57. Hi Sharon!!!

WOW!!! That sounds GREAT! Cassie and I were in the Farmington Parade. The Girl Scout troops were on bikes and scooters (have you ever tried riding a bike at a snails pace in a parade?). Cassie was a real trooper. She stayed on her bike the whole way.

[Patsy Stone]

60. Good for her!

I think she would have looked cute in a Shriner's fez, driving one of those little cars.

[SharonRB]

61. Actually, I don't ride a bike

Never had a desire to learn when I was a kid, so I never did.

[Berry Cool]

69. Interesting!

My true confessions: I never learned to swim underwater, or play chess.

[SeattleGirl]

37. Hi Gigi!!

And hi, Miss Cassie!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

58. Hi SG!!!

Cassie says HI too!!!

[bleever]

31. Keef and Howard look very pink.

Is it them, or is it me?

[SeattleGirl]

41. I thought Howard looked VERY pink (and white, with his hair).

Keith, not so much.

[bleever]

46. They fixed it.

Although Biden still looks pink, but that's just Biden.

[SeattleGirl]

48. Could just be the reflection of his pink tie.

:spray:

[Patsy Stone]

49. Turley's a little pinkish

IMO.

[Berry Cool]

53. It's Cheese Roll time again!!!

:loveya: What a lovely way for Keith to say how much he adores the Rev!!!

"The Power of Cheese!!"

Oh Rev...come and get your love!!!!!

[Berry Cool]

59. OOH! OOH! KEITH LOVES ME TOO!!!!

He showed the reaction of the Channel 5 news team to LeBron's buzzer-beater!!!!

I've already watched that about a kajillion times. It's even funnier if you know that just before that, they were all mopey, assuming the game was lost. But the guy jumping around way in back...that's classic.

We have to console ourselves with this stuff, because the Cavs are obviously way outmatched and not shooting to save their lives. LeBron didn't have to play alone all season for a change, but all of a sudden it's like the rest of them are just standing around watching him, which won't get them past Orlando. I already did my mourning before The Miracle Basket, so I guess I've resigned myself. No Cleveland team will win a championship during my lifetime, ever. Oh well. At least we have funny footage to watch.

[SeattleGirl]

62. That footage was hysterical! And that shot was amazing!

[SharonRB]

63. Oh, Keith....

Could you please, please, please get rid of that stupid Rushbo moving logo? It's driving me crazy.

[Berry Cool]

70. He's used it twice so far this show.

We may be stuck with it.

[Patsy Stone]

64. Justice makes strange bedfellows

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=5725922&mesg_id=5725922

Here's hoping this goes somewhere, and fast!

[SeattleGirl]

65. I'll say!

Well, I wish them every success in this!

[Patsy Stone]

66. Amen.

That ruling was a mess. Didn't they just muck up equal protection even more?

[SeattleGirl]

68. Oh, they sure did.

First, it wasn't okay for gays to get married.

Then it was okay.

Now, it's okay that some gays are married, but it's not okay for other to be married.

How anybody could defend that is just beyond me!

[SharonRB]

71. Strange bedfellows indeed!

Boies and Olson on the same side of anything is a miracle!

[GigiMommy]

72. Wow, that's interesting.

[bleever]

73. I still

hate Ted Olson.

Just for the record.

[Berry Cool]

76. From your lips to God's ears.

It's crazy to have a marriage double standard in California. "Oh, well, these people were married before the people said they couldn't be married, so they can stay married. But none of the rest of you can get married." Please!

[ralps]

74. Today's worst person in the world is Laura Ingrahamfor saying we tortured 3 people!

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

[GigiMommy]

75. He gave her a much nicer picture.

[Berry Cool]

77. But you can tell he still despises her as only someone who once dated her can.

He does his imitation of her annoying whiny voice with such glee.

[SeattleGirl]

78. KO dated Laura??????

:wow:

[Berry Cool]

85. You didn't know that, huh?

Oh yeah, he's admitted as much, both on Countdown and on Dan Patrick's radio show. Of course, he now realizes what a big mistake it was, but sheesh...he couldn't have told that before he got started? It was probably around the time she had a show on MSNBC or was on one regularly...like he couldn't tell way back then that she was a brass-plated bitch on wheels? He had to date her to learn this??

I have absolutely no idea why. The man is brilliant when it comes to intellect, but his taste in women is something I will never understand.

[Patsy Stone]

79. Good for you, Mancow.

Good for you. :thumbsup:

[SeattleGirl]

80. Absolutely!

I still want to see freakhead Hannity be as brave as Mancow was.

[SharonRB]

81. Me, too.

[Patsy Stone]

82. It'll never happen.

Never, never happen.

[Patsy Stone]

83. Rachel's drinking on air again.

Should we stage an intervention?

[Berry Cool]

84. Nah, I'd rather join her.

Mmmmmm...whiskey sours. :9

[bleever]

86. Yes,

with better cocktails.
