Tuesday Stuff

"Why do Republicans hate the troops" indeed (and once more, click here to do something about it)...



Update 9/22/10: As Dick Durbin notes here, this is the first time that a defense authorization bill hasn't passed since 1952 (and of course Blance Lincoln joined the Repug filibuster...enjoy private life after election day, Blanche).

...and here's a little reminder to the "Catfood Commission" that we're wise to shell games on Social Security (a spot-on ad from a presidential campaign whose candidate at the top of the ticket was accused of being untrustworthy by our corporate media about ten years or so ago - they conversely claimed that the Republican candidate was a "regular guy" with whom you would want to have a beer, or something)...



...and by the way, happy 60th birthday to Bill Murray (we all know about "Caddyshack," "Ghostbusters," "Stripes," "Groundhog Day," etc., which were all great in their way IMHO, but this is one of my favorite films...just saw him in "Zombieland" where he's mistaken for a mutant and gets shot, and as his character appears to be dying...haven't seen the whole flick yet...someone asks him if he has any regrets, and he says, "maybe 'Garfield'" - funny stuff)...



...and WXPN in these parts is absolutely playing the crap out of this song, but it's good (like to see Larry Summers have to "beg, steal or borrow" and see how he ends up based on this).
