KOEB Meeting 9/16/09 Mad Max Edition

[Berry Cool]

The Baucus bill is already making me sick. How about you??

:hi: Join us.

[Patsy Stone]

1. What was he futzing around with for months?

This turdburger could have been written on a cocktail napkin for all its depth.

:hi:

[ralps]

2. Hi Berry Cool! Hi Everyone! Yep!! Baucus's bill Makes me sick!

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

[Berry Cool]

4. Baucus might just as well have on a Santa Claus suit

and be coming down the insurance companies' chimney.

[Patsy Stone]

5. "Sir, we know what you are, we're just arguing about the price."

Ouch! :thumbsup:, KO!

[Patsy Stone]

3. RIP, Henry Gibson

[Berry Cool]

6. He will be missed.

I have so many fond memories of going to stay with my aunt for a week in the summer (on my own, without my family) and watching Laugh-In with my older cousin.

[Berry Cool]

7. I thank Wendell Potter for the KOOS

but even that isn't making me feel good about this.

Keith said this bill is a unicorn.

[Patsy Stone]

8. I wish I could remember

one of his poems.

[Berry Cool]

10. I can't remember one off the top of my head right now either.

but watching that show always made me feel so grown up. What the heck, I was about nine years old.

[bleever]

19. "The Alligator is my friend"...

The alligator is my friend
He can be your friend too
If only you would understand
That he has feeling too

The alligator is my friend
He likes to wink and flirt
I'd rather have him as my friend
Than wear him on my shirt

The alligator ate my friend
He can eat your friend too
If only you would understand
That he needs protein too.

[Patsy Stone]

23. Aw...

Thanks. I found that album cover, but I couldn't find the poem.

[Berry Cool]

43. I love it!

[Botany]

29. From the Blues Brothers

As their car goes into Lake Michigan

Nazi 1 to head Nazi aka Gibson:

I love you

Gibson:

I know



Sweet Dreams Henry!

[PSzymeczek]

70. And Mary Travers

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

[Patsy Stone]

9. O/T, but I have to admit

I've totally lost the plot of the ACORN story. It's got more characters than an Agatha Christie novel.

[Berry Cool]

13. I don't even want to follow it

because of course, now that bad apples have been found in ACORN, that's proof that they are an evil organization and they need to be disbanded, etc, yadda. According to the right. Oh, and don't forget, Obama never would have become president without their evil machinations and all the dead people they registered to vote, so he should lose his office, too.

My head hurts.

[bleever]

11. Did Orly Taitz help write the Baucus bill?

It seems to exude the credibility of one of her efforts.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

12. It's so bad

it could have been written by one of her interns.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

15. I think it's even worse.

It could have been written by HER. :scared:

[Patsy Stone]

26. LOL

True dat.

[PSzymeczek]

71. Another of her suits has been dismissed

as frivolous!

[Patsy Stone]

14. Well, if Michael Steele tells me there isn't any racism

that's good enough for me.

[Berry Cool]

16. OMG, Rushbo said Jimmy Carter is a hemorrhoid and "there isn't a tube of Prep H big enough for him"?

Keith: "We will defer to Mr. Limbaugh as an expert on that part of the anatomy."

[Patsy Stone]

20. I liked his opening

Well, he's the country's biggest a-hole so I guess he would know about the country's biggest hemorrhoid." Or something to that effect.

[Botany]

17. Michael Steele who the f*** dressed you? You look like a clown.

What kind of outfit was he wearing .... all he was missing is a big red nose, a wig, and some floppy shoes.

[Berry Cool]

18. Hi, Bot and bleev.

:hi: Well, you know what they say...the clothes make the man.

[Berry Cool]

22. Yea, they finally got Melissa Harris-Lacewell on.

She's always good.

[Patsy Stone]

24. I think she *should* take the train in and sit at the table.

That would be cool.

[Berry Cool]

28. Wouldn't have to ask me twice!

I'll sit at the table with Keith anytime. Of course, I'll also hop in the bed. :evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

30. Shame on you.

:)

LOL: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=103x481612

[bleever]

21. He was wearing the Full Doofus.

Probably thought he looked fiiiiiine.

[Botany]

25. Big Stripes, a bow tie, and a loud shirt

It is a good look honestly

[Patsy Stone]

27. Which reminds me...

Where has Tucker Carlson gone off to? Not that I miss him, but I'm just curious.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

31. Funny how a bad bow tie will remind you of Tucker, eh?

Oh well, I admit I don't miss him much. The best thing about his show was the Quinn Martin-style commercials. Besides, Keith is now free to call him an idiot.

Oh, Keith's come up with a list of racist items related to Obama. This should be good.

[Botany]

32. He is @ the Cato Institute and is very bitter man against Jon Stewart

"Bitter Table For One?"

[bleever]

38. At least maybe now he'll learna marketable skill.

[Berry Cool]

44. The Kato Institute!

:rofl:

[GigiMommy]

33. Hi Everybody! I'm mad at Baucus. P****d at these right-wing Turds and

I miss my baby-girl. :hi::bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

34. Hola chicas and chicos!

Live, from Las Vegas, it's MEEEEEEE!!!!

:hi:

(Just in time down to hear Keith running down the latest right wing craziness apparently).

[Patsy Stone]

41. Hi!

What are you doing here on vacation?! Are you having fun?

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

51. Having a great time, but we needed a break.

Been go-go-going since we got here, and decided we needed to go to our room and just chill out (literally and figuratively as it's hotter than blazes here).

Saw a fantastic show last night called Human Nature. They are four white guys from Australia, doing Motown songs. Sounds crazy, but it was so much fun! Those guys can really sing, I'm telling you.

Tonight we're seeing KA, one of the Cirque de Soliel shows here in Vegas.

So, I'm just taking a break with you.

[Patsy Stone]

54. Lovely

It sounds like you're doing exactly what you should be doing on vacation: having a great time! How long are you staying?

[SeattleGirl]

61. We're here until Friday evening, then we head home.

[Patsy Stone]

63. Cool.

Did you gamble?

[SeattleGirl]

66. Yep. We have been doing our best at Wynn.

Besides the money we've won, we also built up enough points for two trips to their buffet, which is some of the most delicious food I've ever had. Went for lunch yesterday. Tomorrow we're going for dinner. That's $100 worth of comped meals.

[Patsy Stone]

67. Yeah!

Vegas, Baby! Vegas! :toast:

[SeattleGirl]

68. I love it too.

[GigiMommy]

52. Hi SG!!!

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

[SeattleGirl]

58. Hi Gigi!!!

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

[bleever]

35. Keef has color-coded mugs.

One for tea, one full o' snark?

[Berry Cool]

37. He has to replenish once in a while.

Welcome, GGM and SG!!!! :hi:

Take it easy Mama, your little chick will be OK.

As for the Gambler, how are you doing? Ahead or behind?

[GigiMommy]

55. Hi Berry!!!

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

[RevCheesehead]

73. Keith needs a KOEB mug.

Seriously.

:hi:

[Botany]

36. she went to Stanford?

[Berry Cool]

39. Boy, they'll let ANYONE in, won't they??

I love how Keith refers to Lonesome Rhodes and just expects that his audience will know he's talking about Glenn Beck.

[Berry Cool]

42. Did Keith just claim his great-grandfather named General Motors?

[bleever]

47. THAT was an awesome story.

Better than my great-grandfather, who abandoned his wife and baby.

[Patsy Stone]

50. This post is

Jack Handey worthy.

[bleever]

56. LOL.

:thumbsup:

[PSzymeczek]

72. My 5th-great grandfather

Johnstown, PA.

Be sure to check out the schedule in the first post. :scared:

[Berry Cool]

46. Oh, My. God.

[Botany]

45. Immigration Law just about the same as Real Estate Law?

Well I guess one could miss the difference .... they are so much alike. :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

48. You know

pre-law, pre-med, same thing.

[Botany]

59. So much wiggle room

"I have practiced immigration law." Joe Wilson Wow that is so vague. :rofl:

[bleever]

49. What was the Tea Leoni reference?

:shrug:

[bleever]

53. "Deep Impact"

I'm guessin'.

[Patsy Stone]

57. I missed it completely

Now my TV has switched over to Glee, because I must be recording two things at the same time.

[Berry Cool]

60. "The Brokeback Texas Two-Step"?

Oh no... :rofl:

Keith: "Send your complaint letters to me."

Oh, and he did a private shout-out to me in the signoff!!!!!! :bounce: It's a long story. But trust me... :loveya:

Oh Keith...

[bleever]

64. The Julia Child bit?

C'mon, if you can't tell us, who can you tell?

[RevCheesehead]

74. I heard that, and thought of you!

:bounce::bounce:

[bleever]

62. Rachel, quick, steal this: "Dancing with the Czars".

Free to a good home.

[Botany]

65. No more faux Czars .... i want some real Czars

[bleever]

69. I must admit

I'm more familiar with this stuff:
