To be quite honest. I’ve never really “gotten” Jazz music. Some of it is nice and some of it is, well; Abstract.
Anyhow, I hope some of you enjoy it.

Some of you might have noticed the very funny typo in the title of the original posting. Writing like I’ve been in the damn pub too long! LOL!
This week: Attention! Health care reform bill to Emergency, STAT! Obama makes a casual comment about Barbarians at Henry Louis Gates, and suddenly all health breaks loose!
Now I know I have seen everything now!
The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan (H/T to AllahPundit and Via Just one Minute)
But why are we supposed to rely on the testimony of Dr Fukino, whom I believe entirely. It is not my job as a journalist or yours as a citizen to take public officials on trust. They are not to be trusted, whoever they are. It is our job to demand all the evidence we want or need. I know the electronic record is legit. I have no doubt that Obama has every constitutional right to be president. I think the Birthers are nuts. But there is no reason on earth that the original cannot be retrieved and shown. Jon Klein and CNN were wrong, and I retract my apology of yesterday.
Obama promised total transparency. Where is it? Or will it arrive at the moment when he tackles the deficit, and withdraws from Iraq?
You know; as much as the pains me to say it. But Sullivan is absolutely right. This is not some run-of-the-mill Blogger. Sullivan is read and respected by many on the left; and I suspect there will be a releasing of the original long form, by this coming Friday, if not sooner.
Sullivan Goes on in another post:
So many readers are furious that I have dared to ask the president to show the original copy of his birth certificate. The reason for demanding it is the same reason for demanding basic medical records proving Sarah Palin is the biological mother of Trig.
Because it would make it go away and it’s easily done.
I’m tired of these public officials believing they have some right to privacy. They don’t. It’s the price of public office. If you don’t like it, don’t be president. And for goodness’ sake, don’t run for president on a platform of transparency.
Well put Mr. Sullivan.

That my friends is Debbee Keller. The Hill has more:
Age: 24
Hometown: Georgetown, Texas
Political party: Republican
Relationship status: SingleDebbee Keller could be right out of the movie “Varsity Blues.” She has brown hair that falls just below her shoulders and brown eyes to match; she dresses stylishly but would rather have a meal with her family than go shopping; and she won her hometown beauty contest at the age of 17.
As it happens, her hometown of Georgetown, Texas, was where “Varsity Blues” was filmed.
“We’re just a small town, where high school football is life,” says Keller, the press secretary for Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.). “On a Friday night, if you drive a block away [from the high school] it would be dead, but the stadium was packed with everyone in town.”
Keller recently became a Washington Nationals baseball fan and liked to point out that, as of her interview with The Hill, the team hadn’t lost a game since she started cheering for them.
“I attribute a lot of their losses to the fact that when you go to a home game everyone’s rooting for the visiting team, so I’m going to turn that around,” Keller says. “I never cared about baseball before, but I have compassion for the Nats.”
Keller also volunteers through her church. Once a month she helps elderly people in Washington’s Anacostia neighborhood with work on their houses and yards.
One recent weekend she was in charge of stripping paint from the side of a house using a power-washer.
“I recently discovered that I’m very good with a power-washer,” Keller says. “I ended up getting soaking wet. But it was worth it, just to know you’re helping someone.”
I got one thing to say about Miss. Keller —- Oh.My.Goodness. As the legendary Jackie Gleason put it once, “Humna Humna Humna…..”
Powerwasher, getting all wet. Her in a Bikini. Oh Yeah, I could handle that. All day long.
Now if you’ll pardon me, I need to take a cold shower.
Looks like ol’ Lou Dobbs is at it again.
The left is trying to silence their opponents and their competitors in the public marketplace of ideas… One issue in which the ethnocentric issue groups have been trying to silence me is on the issue of illegal immigration. Many of those, if you will, have migrated to me here recently because I, even though I said I believe the President is a citizen of the United States, I don’t understand why he shouldn’t produce a birth certificate. My God, you’re talking about the third rail of American journalism, baby! That’s it. I’m not going to back off. […]
And teabagging queen Rachel Maddow over at MSNBC, she wanted another shot so apparently she twisted, she tried to twist my words. She ignored my statements on the issue. In other words, she was not being intellectually honest. Imagine that. […]
She lied. I never said I’m a ‘birther.’ I’m not. I don’t know how many times I’ve said, ‘Barack Obama is a citizen of the United States. Why not release your birth certificate?’ What is the big deal with saying that?
Uh, Lou? There’s no way possible that Rachel Maddow could be a “Tea Bagging Queen”. You see, it’s because she’s a lesbian. She doesn’t put guy’s Balls in her mouth. She likes to, uh, “Eat at the Y” or likes to do the muff dive. Right Idea; just the wrong set of organs.
Pretty Lady, just not much into guys. It’s a shame, good waste of pussy really, when you get down to it. I mean, that’s a really nice package. Problem is, it’s not accepting deliveries and that my friends is a human tragedy.
Folks, I was going to have the comment section set to where you had to register. But I kept getting the sign up bots. So, I discarded the idea. So, now no registering is required. Those who did sign up for accounts will be able to access them, and if you want to register for a signon name, you can. But it is not a requirement.
Just letting you know…
Further Proof that Liberals are just terminally dumb.
First thoughts: Losing the message war? – First Read – msnbc.com
Perhaps the biggest thing that stood out to us at President Obama’s AARP town hall yesterday was that the White House appears to be losing the message war on health care. How do we know? Just listen to the questions the AARP callers had. Several of them asked about “rumors,” and they also brought up GOP talking points on “rationing” or the government coming to your house to ask how you want to die (!!!). Also, Obama’s closing statement at the town hall was particularly telling. “Sometimes I get a little frustrated because this is one of those situations where it’s so obvious that the system we have isn’t working well for too many people and that we could just be doing better,” he said. “We’re not going to have a perfect health care system; it’s a complicated system, there are always going to be some problems out there. But we could be doing a lot better than we’re doing right now.”
MSNBC is a shill for the Democratic Party. This is totally evident by this posting and it title. Losing the message war? That implies that the American people are stupid and that the White House has to make it simple. Sorry guys, that is just insulting; which is why I do not watch your Network any longer. The fact is that most rational thinking Americans want affordable Health-care; but most sane rational thinking Americans do not want Government run Healthcare. Because they know that Government ran Health-care will result a terrible Health-care for the folks. It will maan rationing of medicine. It will mean a loss of our true American freedom to choose which doctor you can go to. It will mean the Government will tell you that you just need to die; all to save money. Impressed so far?
President Barack Obama is a far left socialist President and he wants Government ran Health-care. The folks do not want this and now the President is ticked off; because we Conservatives know the truth about his Communist modeled program, and we have been informing the people of the truth. This is upsetting the President and his socialist minions, who are on an agenda to destory America. Plus, the Blue Dogs in his own damned party are standing up and saying, “Whoa, Wait a minute here!” That is because they know that our Nation’s economy is in the stinking toilet and they know that this sort of institutionalized Healthcare will a disaster for our Nation’s Economy; and they do not want to painted as the Party that destroyed Americans Economy.
Now, I know what some Moonbat liberal is thinking reading this. —- “That guy is most likely rich and can afford his own health-care…” If I were as rich as some have a accused me of being on this blog. I would retire now and live high on the proverbial hog. Guys, I have less than $100.00 in my checking account right now. This Blog is my living. I have NO HEALTH-CARE INSURANCE AT ALL! But do I want to start taking Governmental Healthcare insurance? Hell No! Because for one, I do not want some Government appointed panel deciding what sort of treatments or care that I should get. I believe in the private markets! Two; I really understand how Government works and how SLOW it can be and how terrible the healthcare system is for the Vets, and for those on Medicaid and Medicare. Plus I have, unlike this Rich Limousine Liberals, I have actually went to the secretary of State office, during the week. Ever do that before? That will be what Government health-care will be like.
Hopefully, this bill will die and Congress and hopefully President Obama will, to use a liberal Phrase; Move on.
Now this is funny!
TheHill.com – Waters warns Blue Dogs to beware in 2010
Liberal frustration started to boil over in the House on Tuesday as negotiations over healthcare reform with centrist Blue Dog Democrats dragged into a second week.
The delay prompted Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) to lash out at the Blue Dogs as hypocritical and even hint that more liberal Democrats might challenge them in primaries.
“On the one hand they don’t want to spend money, but on the other hand they want to spend money when it benefits them or their district,” Waters said on MSNBC, referring to Blue Dogs’ demand to increase Medicare reimbursements for rural physicians.
Seven Blue Dogs on the House Energy and Commerce Committee have effectively blocked the panel from working on the bill for more than a week, saying it’s too expensive and puts too much of a burden on small employers.
Asked if she would recruit more liberal candidates to run against Blue Dogs, Waters said, “That’s normally not done.”
But she added: “There may be people out there listening and observing all of this who may get motivated based on what they’re seeing and throw their hat into the ring.”
What stupid liberal Maxine Waters does not realize; is that the Blue Dog Democrats are there for that very reason, because they are “Blue Dog Democrats!” In words, the only reason why they were elected is because they were so Conservative, that the people felt comfortable electing them. In other words, they are the Democratic Party’s version of RINO’s or Democrats In Name Only or DINO’s. If the Democratic Party decided to do something foolish like run some extremely liberal Democrat in that district; the Republican Party would absolutely annihilate them!
You would think that someone like Maxine Waters would know something like this. But then again, we are talking about Liberal Democrats.
