I awakened this morning (which is a good thing) and started thinking (which may be a bad thing)

[PCIntern]

that the RW Hate-filled propaganda machine may wind up having cast a spell similar to the one in The Sorcerer's Apprentice. In order to figuratively carry the water(!) for the extremists, they may, or already have, lost control of the process and have opened a (politically) ancient box and can't get the genii back into it.

Some of the wingers such as David Frum have already become casualties, and there will be more, because no one is "perfect" except (so far) Slimebaugh and Beck, and even Beck has, in the past, shown cracks in his 'faith' not because he is ideologically impure, but that he has no ideology at all whatsoever and is playing these idiots for fools as he collects his gigantic paycheck.

When all manner of control is lost, then there will be no Magician who can counteract the malignant spell. That's the difference between Reality and Fiction.

These were my first thoughts this morning...how sick is that?

1. I know the feeling, "...and started thinking (which may be a bad thing)" You're

so correct about the malignant spell. And if all hell breaks out, the RW evil hate spewers will say "Who, me?" The Sorcerer's Apprentice is an excellent image/example.

[Paper Roses]

2. Malignant spell. Perfect

Not sick, insightful.

9. Just meant that the first thing thru my brain

in the AM has nothing to do with my penis anymore, and has to do with DU/Politics.

[monmouth]

3. I awakend this morning (which is a good thing) and realized I had

no half 'n half for my coffee and that James Caan had turned 70, Pacino will be 70 the 25th of this month, and I'll be 70 in July. Not a good start so far....LOL.

[ThomWV]

4. May I remind you that turning 70 is far better than stopping at 69.

5. Corregidor! as my math teacher used to say!

[lonestarnot]

6. Why would your math teacher say Corregidor in this context?

Just currious if you know.

[PCIntern]

7. Instead of "Correct!!" sorry to be obtuse...

I'm doing that more and more here and it's MY FAULT. Becoming more narcissistic by the day...soon I'll be voting Republican... :sarcasm:

On edit: my math teacher flew in the same squdron as Jimmy Stewart...he said that Stewart routinely flew lead bomber which, of course, was the one shot at first...or so he said.

[lonestarnot]

12. OMG voting repigliCON.

Not. Thanks for your clarification. "Jimmy Stewart: Bomber Pilot chronicles the star's long journey to become a bomber pilot in combat. Author Starr Smith recounts how Stewart's first battles were with the Air Corps high command, who insisted on keeping the naturally talented pilot out of harm's way as an instructor pilot for B-17 Flying Fortresses and B-24 Liberators. We learn how, by 1944, Stewart managed to get assigned to a Liberator squadron that was deploying to England to join the mighty Eighth Air Force - and how, once in the thick of it, he rose to command his own squadron and flew twenty combat missions, including one to Berlin." I loved Jimmy Stewart. I miss him. :(

13. Well yes, good point...LOL....n/t

10. I saw Raquel Welch

On the teevee this morning. She is in her seventies? There was some serious work done on that woman. She looks like 40.

[PCIntern]

11. I saw her daughter once IRL...

she was the most perfect human being I have ever laid eyes on...staggering.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

14. She's 69 and still drop dead gorgeous. If she had work it was flawless. At least bodywise

she's been practicing extreme yoga for 30 years.

8. i think it's perfect analogy
