KOEB Meeting -- 4/4/06: It's Hammer Time Edition

[Patsy Stone]

:woohoo:

[SharonRB]

1. Woo hoo hoo is right, Pats!

Now if only Fitzach would get here April could be a landmark month.

[Olney Blue]

5. Story 5: Exterminated!!!!!!!!!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

6. Next year in Jerusalem...

Hi, Shar! :hi:

[Olney Blue]

2. DeLay in DeNial. Hi Patsy!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

11. Hey, Olney.

Bye, bye Tommy. It's off to K Street with you. :(

[SharonRB]

3. You can't touch this

[bleever]

4. "GOP Decides to Reform without Delay."

:woohoo:

[Olney Blue]

7. LOL.

If they were good, they wouldn't have to reform.

[Patsy Stone]

8. Keith didn't pick out the word "gifted" from Boehner's description

of DeLay? Why? Too easy?

:hi:

ed: gram.

[SharonRB]

10. LOL

Way too easy.

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

9. They'll be without DeLay all right, but

I doubt they'll reform.

[Olney Blue]

12. Dana seems to be happy.

[Olney Blue]

16. Washington Post headline: DeLay to Resign from Congress

HUGE LETTERS

[SharonRB]

13. Self-Delete

[Patsy Stone]

14. That skin color is killing me.

See, Dana is normal mid-Atlantic spring pale, and Keith is still orange. Do I look like that when I tan? :shrug:

[SharonRB]

15. I hope not.

It's just awful.

[Patsy Stone]

19. Me too.

I hope (and suspect) there's some bronzer product involved. :)

[bleever]

17. Only on camera.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

23. Have you seen my work?

:rofl:

[bleever]

25. Yeah, you're on local in, uh, Tampa, right?

:rofl:

[Greylyn58]

18. Howdy All

Hope everyone is doing well. Shapes up to be another kickin show from Keith!! :loveya: KO

:hi: to Patsy and my fellow KOEBers!! :grouphug:

Matthews needs to take his lips off of the BugMan's butt. :puke: To think that man use to be(note I use the word "use to be") a Democrat...he certainly isn't now. He does way too much ass kissing of the Repugs. :argh:

[Olney Blue]

20. Hi Greylyn! So you watched Softball tonight?

It was disturbing.

[Patsy Stone]

21. Tweety is a hyperventilating moran,

He has no brain. He never knows anything about anything; offers a stupid, ill-informed opinions; goes along with anything anyone says; and then changes his opinion the other way.

Hi, Grey! Woof, Sheridan! :hi:

[CBHagman]

89. There's an image I could have done without.

"Matthews needs to take his lips off of the BugMan's butt."

BLEAH! Are you saying Hairball was devoted to SYMPATHETIC coverage of the unrepentant, vindictive DeLay's plight?

Are we in Bizarro World here? What's with this depiction of DeLay's downfall as some type of martyrdom? I think I missed the part of the Gospel that says, "Go ye and be vindictive, acquisitive bastards, sneering at your enemies from well-appointed clubhouses in St. Andrews."

But maybe Rev can set me straight here. :shrug:

[WolverineDG]

22. Massive amounts of celebrating

at Chez DG today! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: Gee, I thought Tommy was against the "cut & run" thing. :shrug:

And "Willie Nelson Moves to Utah"?? :o NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:rofl: No one quit at the Alamo. Damn straight & that's what folks are saying here in DeLay's hometown: QUITTER! COWARD!

dg

[SharonRB]

24. Cowards cut and run, to quote Mean Jean

So I guess that makes Tommy a big, fat coward.

[Olney Blue]

26. A good role model for orphans.....

[Berry Cool]

29. Hi gang! Doesn't Keith look downright red tonight?

:hi: But in this case, red is a PARTY color...:-)

The Exterminator has been terminated. I don't care how Keith and Pat try to paint it as bad news for the Dems, I don't think it is. It was get rid of him sooner or get rid of him later. I vote for get rid of him sooner. :-)

[Olney Blue]

31. I agree, Berry. It is good news for the COUNTRY that DeLay is

slithering away.

How are you tonight, Berry?
:hi:

[Berry Cool]

34. I'm darned good, Olney

How about you?

[Olney Blue]

36. Euphoric, thanks!

[bleever]

27. KO hits the nail on the head about *'s name on the brand of this crap.

DeLay's not around to be the scorn magnet.

Brilliant, Keef!

:thumbsup:

[Olney Blue]

28. Pat Buchanan points out that Iraq is a huge problem

for the chimp.

[Greylyn58]

30. You know Pat...

you said the Dems should move on an not use DeLay to "beat a dead horse".

How well has that worked for the Repugs...Hmmm? They bring up Pres. Clinton and blame him for everything under the sun, every chance they get.

What a hypocrite!!!

Keith missed a great chance to nail him on that one statement.

[Berry Cool]

32. Good point.

The Bug Man is done and gone, but there are plenty of other bad apples to root out and make the object of scorn. Go after them.

[Patsy Stone]

35. Hi, Berry!

Yep, one of many. As wonderful as it is, there's almost a sense of despair that there are so many more to go. :)

[WolverineDG]

33. Gee, Pat

I think that whole tactic of scaring people by saying "What would it be like with Democrats in charge" just might backfire, considering just how screwed-up things are now.

dg

[Berry Cool]

37. Yeah, they might say

"It wouldn't actually be so bad."

Uh, Keith, people don't SEW sweaters, they KNIT or CROCHET them.

LOL, cats on the toilet again! I love how Keith talks about cats doing "their dirty, dirty business." :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

41. I can't believe it's yet ANOTHER story of a guy getting stuck

on a store toilet seat again! Didn't we just have one of those?

Keith was so disgusted with the dumb criminals at #1 Newsmaker tonight, he flung the script twice!

[Olney Blue]

39. DeLay was whining that the Dems would undo 10 years of work.

I say: Let's get started!!!!!!

[WolverineDG]

42. You know

the Dems could point to the Contract on with America & say "Remember this? They were so busy taking bribes from lobbyists they forgot why they came."

dg

[Olney Blue]

46. Good idea. And it was a contract ON America!!!

[Patsy Stone]

38. Aw... a Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle reference.

:loveya:

[WolverineDG]

40. That movie was so funny

when is "Harold & Kumar go to Amsterdam" coming out?

dg

[Berry Cool]

44. Baseball sequence beginning now.

All those tired of seeing Keith do baseball coverage, please turn away. We'll tell you when it's safe to come back.

[Patsy Stone]

60. I don't know

but I hope it's soon. I'm not sure they could do that twice. It was so much funnier than it needed to be. A really good, stupid funny movie.

:hi: DG?

[WolverineDG]

86. heya pats

:hi:

One cannot underestimate the power of a really good, stupid, funny movie. Sometimes, that's just what you need.

dg

[Greylyn58]

43. OOOOOhhhh we make the dumb criminals again

Huntersville is a 'Burb of Charlotte. I'm ever so proud when we get mentioned in the Countdown!!

Not!!! :evilgrin:

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

[bunny planet]

45. I have to watch the rerun but I did want to drive by and say

DING DONG THE MUTHAF'ING BUGMAN IS DEAD!!!!!!!
HOORAY!!!!!!!!

and John 'I've got my head so far up *'s butt I can't see' got booed today.
HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!!!

[SharonRB]

47. HI, Bunny

It's a good day on the planet today. I was so happy first thing this a.m. when I heard Rachel tell the news.

[Berry Cool]

50. Two people in deep denial:

Tom DeLay and Barry Bonds.

[Olney Blue]

48. It feels like a fresh breeze is blowing through the country today!

[bleever]

52. I'll drink to that. In fact, I am!

:toast:


:party:

[Patsy Stone]

62. Woo Hoo!

Hi, bun! :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

49. Keith said "Ruth"

He thinks I'm a Babe. :loveya:

Hi, y'all! :hi:

[Berry Cool]

53. Hi Rev, Patsela, etcetera!

:hi: Oh boy, she's gettin' desperate. Keith mentions Babe Ruth and she thinks it's a shout-out. :-)

[RevCheesehead]

55. He didn't mention "Babe."

He didn't say "Bambino." He said "Ruth."

I'll take what I can get, OK? :rofl:

[WolverineDG]

54. Hi Rev!

:hi:

I'd say that's a "shout-out."

dg

[RevCheesehead]

Thank you!

And congrats on watching Tommy implode. Quite a sight, eh? :applause:

[WolverineDG]

82. Yes, it was the highlight of my day

since I was in court all freakin' morning long with a client who made me want to do this: :banghead:

dg

[Berry Cool]

63. Well, if he'd said "Bambino" I'd have said that's my shout-out.

"It's code; he wants me to have his bambino!"

[bleever]

56. ROFL.

:toast:

[RevCheesehead]

61. Hey, bleev....

I still believe - do you? :toast:

[bleever]

72. You know,

I think I do!

:toast:

And the notion that the Bugman's retreat helps the Repubs because we lose a prime target: :rofl:

DeLay was just the sneeze-guard on *'s salad bar.


:7

[Greylyn58]

59. Howdy Rev

glad you made it.

[RevCheesehead]

64. Hi, Grey.

I was watching, but just didn't get to the computer in time.
It is a little odd, however, watching the first part of the show while it's still light outside. :)

[Olney Blue]

71. Hi Rev! Hope you had a nice day.

[RevCheesehead]

76. Hi Olney

Not bad. I'm actually getting a lot of cleaning done. That feels good!

Hope you're well, and happy! :hi:

[Olney Blue]

51. Is it me, or does this Bob Nightingale dude look like he is

on steroids?

:shrug:

[WolverineDG]

57. Dunno

but could he have been wearing any more green? :crazy: Do they celebrate St. Patrick's Day later on the West Coast? :shrug:

dg

[Berry Cool]

58. Loved how Keith rolled his eyes upward during that tease.

"What could the movie possibly be about?!? Snakes...on a plane??"

[Berry Cool]

66. "Are you ready for some mugshots?"

:rofl:

Oh, and Wal-Mart can't get rid of Brokeback Mountain? :rofl:

[Greylyn58]

75. Yeah...not that they would

gotta make that buck.

I didn't work today, but I've been wondering if the store I work at had any whack-jobs come in and tell us off for selling it.

[SharonRB]

65. Ongoing investigation?

Hmmmmmm...sounds familiar....where have I heard that phrase before?

[RevCheesehead]

67. I dunno -

but you can bet someone won't be commenting about it while it's ongoing.

Hiya, Sharon :hi:

[SharonRB]

69. Hi, Rev

I'm sure Puffy will have nothing to say.

[Patsy Stone]

68. I can't comment on that...

:rofl:

[WolverineDG]

85. you forgot

"from this podium"

It's the podium's fault! He'll have to start commenting once he's no longer behind it! :rofl:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

88. Like in The Jerk!

It's these CANS! They hate the CANS! :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

70. Actually, Sharon, that reminds me

I was looking at Snotty commenting on Bugman tonight and thinking "Yeah, pal, and you're next!"

They're teeing him up, man! :rofl:

[Olney Blue]

73. I'm glad Keith is not covering Cynthia McKinney.

[SharonRB]

74. Oviously he finds even baseball more newsworthy

[Olney Blue]

77. Keith really loves baseball, doesn't he?!

Hi Sharon. :hi:

[Berry Cool]

78. Stop the presses. News flash. Keith finds baseball more interesting than

Cynthia McKinney.

Keith singing "Snakes on a plane, snakes on a plane...I got some snakes on a plane..." :rofl:

on edit: Hey, it's no worse than "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp."

[bleever]

79. Mon!

Your hair is perfect, that's a great color on you, and that pendant highlights your...eye color!


:)

[Patsy Stone]

80. VIDEO: Degrees of DeLay. (liveoaktx!)

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x843593

[SharonRB]

81. That would have been a great spot to talk about the Tahoe ads

Monica looked especially good tonight, I thought.

[Berry Cool]

83. She did look nice.

But alas, poor Keith. He suffered from premature smashulation tonight.

Guys, guys: Wait till he THROWS the paper wad, please.

[WolverineDG]

84. maybe they're still working on it?

One can hope. :evilgrin:

dg

[Berry Cool]

87. OK, here's a song especially for tonight, even better than Keith's

"Love Theme from 'Snakes on a Plane.'" It's from a site called Attytood, just found it in GD (I think). Imagine and enjoy:

"Walk Away DeLay," by the Right Banke

A song for a rainy day in the sidewalk cafes of K Street:

And when I see the cash that flowed one way
The tribes we used to rip off...every day

Just walk away DeLay
They weren’t gonna vote for you back home
The empty K Street office suites are not the same
Jack’s not to blame

From deep inside the tears you’re forced to cry
Now when you grab a meal...you’ll have to buy

Just walk away DeLay
And hope a defense contractor buys your home
Now as a plane takes off for Scotland’s finest links
Not there...it stinks

Your name is still atop a... kids’ charity
Now we all know its aid was...meant for thee

Just walk away DeLay
And pray federal agents aren’t at your home
Now as your aides have flipped... against your crooked scam
They’ve burst your dam

Just walk away DeLay
The right wing won’t follow you back home
An empty cell awaits... to end your life of fame
Who will you blame?

:applause: I love this one! Brings a tear to my eye!
