KOEB Meeting 9/3/09 Snowe Job? Edition

[Berry Cool]

You know, we might have been better off having THESE people hash out the health-care bill...at least we know the man at the table is smart.



:hi: Join us... :eyes:

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

1. Hi Berry

:hi: All went well at the hospital yesterday. I got a good report and am feeling much better.

[Patsy Stone]

4. Excellent news, mo!

Nice to see ya! :hi:

[Berry Cool]

6. Glad to hear it, mo.

:toast:

[SeattleGirl]

10. Hi mo!

Glad you got some good news!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

55. Hi Mo!!!

That's good to hear. I'm glad.:hi: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

2. This show is going to be too depressing.

So, I'll watch, but also switch to the Packers game. At least the Packers have some bright spots. :(

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

7. I would say "I'll switch to the Browns game, if one is on"

but sadly, I couldn't claim that would have any bright spots...

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

13. I forgot, the Bears are playing tonight as well.

I'm not that interested in pre-season games. But I do have to say the weather in Chicago tonight is perfect for a football game. It's clear and cool. You can really feel "fall" in the air.

[Berry Cool]

16. Same here.

[PSzymeczek]

85. I grew up on the Browns.

even before the Bungles existed.

[SeattleGirl]

12. Hi Rev! Here's something to make you smile....

[Patsy Stone]

3. Glenn Beck is now completely certifiable

Cue Napoleon XIV! Someone come and take him away. Ha, Ha, Ho, Ho, Hee, Hee.

:hi:, everyone!

[SeattleGirl]

15. Hi Patsy!

That jacket looks like it's JUST the right size for ol' Lonesome Rhodes. :hi:

[SharonRB]

34. To the funny farm,

where life is beautiful all the time!

[PSzymeczek]

87. And I'll be happy

to see those nice young men in their clean white coats.

[Patsy Stone]

45. Wow, Hillary!

You've come a long way from that 90s hair and make up -- and those eyebrows! Good for you! You look mahvelous. :toast:

[ralps]

5. Hi Berry Cool! Hi Everyone!

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

[Berry Cool]

8. Hi ralps!

Pats is right! "Where life is beautiful all the time!"

I just knew Keith was going to have a field day tonight tearing into Lonesome's rants about the "Commie symbolism" of 30 Rock. :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

17. Hi ralps!

I need to go huntin' for more cat gifs.

:hi:

[ralps]

25. Hi SeattleGirl!!! Cool!

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

[SeattleGirl]

9. Hi Berry!

I wish Obama would just ignore the friggin' Republicans. They ignored us for 8 years, so why not?

[Berry Cool]

11. Hi SG!

:hi: I just don't know what we have to DO to make that man do what we want! What is the damn PROBLEM???? :grr:

[SeattleGirl]

18. Beats me.

I believed him when he was campaigning, that he would listen to us.

He needs to show it, and stop trying so hard for bipartianship. The R's aren't interested.

[PSzymeczek]

88. F*** bipartisanship!!! n/t

[Patsy Stone]

14. Waiting for this speech

is making me nuts. And it's making DU nuts too.

:hi:, SG!

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

19. I trying not to think about it.

I don't want to speculate on what Obama's gonna say, one way or another. However, if Rahm Emanuel has anything to do with it, I'm sure I'mm gonna be disappointed and pissed off. He's a snake, nothing more, nothing less.

[Patsy Stone]

24. I don't know much about him

other than he's a right bastard. But I didn't necessarily hold that against him. I guess it all depends on whether he uses his powers for good instead of evil.

[PSzymeczek]

86. Rahmbo needs to go. n/t

[Berry Cool]

21. I have to laugh at some of these online ads.

They have a new one tonight for "police impounded cars and foreclosed houses for sale."

Oh well. It beats the absurdly loud Microsoft ads and the overly repeated PSAs.

[SeattleGirl]

22. Making me nuts too.

I wish he would just come out and do it now, but I think he's taking the holiday weekend into consideration.

[SharonRB]

37. I'm too busy at work to check in during the day

I brought work home tonight and am working from home tomorrow. I'll probably put in some time Sunday and Monday, too. I really hate this time of year. Wish I could retire already!

[Patsy Stone]

20. This Town Hall meeting

was deplorable. These people should all be ashamed of themselves. Who the hell do they think they are?

[SeattleGirl]

23. I agree.

Forgive me for saying this, but I wanted to gob-smack the lot of them. :grr:

[Berry Cool]

26. They want to frighten us with images of Grandma being euthanized

but yelling at and shouting down women in wheelchairs is just fine.

[SeattleGirl]

27. Disgusting, isn't it.

I'd like to box their ears.

[Berry Cool]

35. Whew! For a second I thought the TempurPedic ad was for Cialis

just because it showed a man and woman on a bed out in a meadow. :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

42. Can you explain to me

what's so sexy about TWO SEPARATE BATHTUBS out in the middle of nowhere? I never understood how that's supposed to work.

[SeattleGirl]

43. Want to know my interpretation of that?

It means they both end up in the wet spot. :hide:

[Patsy Stone]

47. Oh, dear...

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

49. What?

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

52. DUzy!!!!!

:applause: :rofl:

[GigiMommy]

62. ...

:blush: :rofl:

[PSzymeczek]

89. I just discovered

how much it hurts when I laugh that hard.
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
and how weak my bladder is.

[Berry Cool]

Me either.

I would think it would be damn difficult to have sex in just one bathtub. I can't imagine how it works in two.

Yet it's supposed to be so damn exciting because they're HOLDING HANDS. :eyes:

[Patsy Stone]

59. The holding hands part

kills me. LOL.

[SeattleGirl]

28. O'Donnell is depressing me.

:-(

[Patsy Stone]

30. He often does that to me.

But then I wonder if that's just the way he is.

:hug:

[SeattleGirl]

32. Maybe so.

I just hated listening to him tick off all the things he thought were going to be stripped from a final bill.

:hug:

[ralps]

29. Yay for Lawrence O'Donnell!

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

[SharonRB]

31. Hello, sweetie darlings!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

33. Hola, Sharon!

:hi:

[SharonRB]

38. Hi, SG

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

36. Sharon!

:toast:

[SharonRB]

39. Hiya, Pats

:hi:

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

41. Hi Shar

:hi: Are you enjoying the beautiful weather we're having in the upper Midwest? I know I am.

[SharonRB]

44. Hi, Mo

Glad you got good news at the hospital.

I'm too busy to enjoy the beautiful weather, but Saturday I'll be outside at the football game all day.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

53. God is Michigan playing on Saturday? It's kinda early isn't it.

Well anyway I hope they win whoever they'll be playing. Michigan has always been my 2nd favorite after Notre Dame.

[SharonRB]

75. We're playing Western Michigan

We better not make it three years in a row to lose our opener to a lesser team. We typically play the Saturday of Labor Day weekend.

[Berry Cool]

40. Hey, Sha-Sha!

:hi: Good to see ya!

[Berry Cool]

46. This quote from Ted Kennedy sounds like something Botany would say.

Or wishes he could say. You know, "I have enjoyed the company of women, good wine...perhaps too much..."

[Berry Cool]

48. Uh-oh, Keith brought up the C-word.

He is now dead to most of DU...

But seriously, I couldn't help but think of Ted's life, too, as a matter of atonement.

[SeattleGirl]

50. Same here.

He knew that what he did was wrong, in leaving Mary Jo in the car.

[GigiMommy]

51. Hello Everyone!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: I haven't read much beyond Children's books in the past few years but I think I might get Teddy's.

[SeattleGirl]

54. Hi Gigi!!

I'm going to ask for it for my birthday in October. :hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

57. Hey SG, thanks for the b-day idea. Mine is in October as well

and I'd love to get Ted's book. :woohoo: :

[SeattleGirl]

60. Mine is the 15th. What day is yours?

[GigiMommy]

58. Hi SG!!! Ooh what a good idea!!!

There's Christmas AND my birthday.

[SeattleGirl]

61. Are you a December baby?

[GigiMommy]

64. January 3, just missed being a New Year's baby.

[Berry Cool]

56. Hi, GGM.

:hi: We'll do you the favor Keith didn't do for us: forewarn you that the upcoming portion of Countdown will feature visuals of Don Imus. :scared:

You might want to ask Cassie to leave the room.

[GigiMommy]

67. Hi Berry!!!

:hi: Thanks for the warning, Cassie's watching Disney.

[Patsy Stone]

That's a great way

to get back into the swing of reading the "big words". :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

66. I just bought 3 "big words" books to read:

Krugman's "The Conscience of a Liberal"

Sharlet's "The Family"

Scahill's "Blackwater"

[Patsy Stone]

70. That's a reading list right there.

:thumbsup:

I really want to read Scahill's book, although I'm sure it's not going to be a fun read.

[SeattleGirl]

73. I'm sure it won't, but to me, it's practically "must read" material.

And Sharlet's book will probably scare me too!

[ralps]

63. Today's worst person in the world is Former AG Alberto Gonzalas! for Fredo disagreeing

w/ Fredo!! LOL :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

65. Bounce Dryer Bar...cool!!!!!

Wonder if it comes in lavender vanilla? I hate having old dryer sheets all over my laundry room.

Uh-oh, Keith is now dead to the part of DU that tried to spread that Glenn Beck rumor...he gave them his WPITW silver medal behind Fredo!!!

[Berry Cool]

69. Keith's not entirely correct.

There WAS once a Standard Oil building in New York. It was moved there from Cleveland for a time.

This was (and is) at 26 Broadway, although it's no longer a Standard Oil headquarters. Then again, neither is the one that used to be headquarters in Cleveland.

[Patsy Stone]

68. "Maybe he's MC Hammer?"

"I been coming here for thirty years and I didn't know there was weed over there!"

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

71. KO is have so much fun with this!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

72. "Ohmigosh, you guys!"

"Glenn's about to tell us that the map to the secret treasure is on the back of the Declaration of Independence!"

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[SharonRB]

78. They're really going to come and take him away

Now wouldn't be too soon for me.

[Botany]

74. Glen has sex w/ Acorns aka he is Fucking Nutz

Ah the U.S.S.R. is over, Mussolini is dead, and Ben S. Bernanke & Timothy F. Geithner are capitalists.

But what about the Russian Bear?

[SeattleGirl]

76. Bwahahahahaha!!!

Keith is totally cracking me up with this Beck stuff!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

77. So 30 Rock is like the building in Ghostbusters?

Is Glenn the Keymaster?

[Berry Cool]

84. If Glenn is the Keymaster

I sure as hell don't wanna volunteer for Gatekeeper. :scared:

[SeattleGirl]

79. Stop it, Keith, stop it! You're killin' me!!!

:rofl:

[bleever]

80. Hi all. I got distracted writing this post:

:hi:

[Botany]

81. Frontier Gibberish

[Berry Cool]

82. OMG, that was the funniest Keith in ages.

:rofl: He makes me want to wet my pants when he just goes nuts.

[Patsy Stone]

83. "I'm just glad these lovely children were here to hear that."

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

90. Had to take a phone call when Keith did Beck...

HOW. FUNNY. WAS. THAT.:rofl:
