Saturday Stuff

Tee, hee, and hee (NSFW – here…and SO TRUE, though their competition is pretty bad also, as noted here)…



Update 3/4/14: And I think this is a good response.

…and I guess the best approach is often the most direct one…



…and here’s another example of the Repugs "supporting the troops," as it were - disgusting…



…and happy 70th birthday to Roger Daltrey, singing the lead on perhaps the most ironic song ever written.

Friday Stuff

Happy fifth birthday, Teahadists (here, with accompaniment from the funniest math professor of all time)...



...and this is probably the most interesting, ahem, tribute to Black History Month (which is about to end) that you're likely to find (here)...



Update: This clip plays starting at about 2:00 on my PC, but for some reason, it plays with no problem on my "smart" phone...another unreliable video from Hulu, apparently :-(...

...and here is a clip about something that took place that was medically constructive under The Sainted Ronnie R, believe it or not (and what the state of Georgia is proposing is stupid, of course, but we don't have anything to brag about in PA on this either, as noted here)...

Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy



...and I started this week complaining about the white stuff, so as long as we’re due to get more (ugh), I might as well end it the same way (God, it's hard to imagine that Robert Downey, Jr. was ever that young).

Thursday Stuff

I really apologize for wasting anyone’s time with this nonsense from Bill Orally, but I guess it’s too tempting to ignore; “low-hanging fruit,” as it were – wonder if he’d vote for Andrea Mackris (ha and ha…and gee, wonder how long it took to figure out that this was just a bogus premise anyway to attack Hillary Clinton? Ya’ think??!!)…



…and this is really wonky, but important, stuff from Rachel Maddow…



…and once more, leave it to Jon Stewart to make sense of the latest right-wing insanity (here)…



…and here’s some down home, pre-Friday funk fo’ y’all.

Wednesday Stuff

Good for Rep. Luis Gutierrez for this (hat tip to Crooks and Liars)…



...and does anyone besides me remember the Afghan War?...



...and here's more good news for the Foxies (a little late here I'll admit)...



…and leave it to Jon Stewart to draw the line from the mujahedeen in the ‘80s to the Taliban today, which came about partly under The Sainted Ronnie R, among other foreign policy stupidity (here)…


…and Lawrence O’Donnell points out how the Teahadists try to abuse the legend of our third president to fit their own nefarious ends…



…all of which makes me recall this tune.

Tuesday Stuff

Here goes that silly Bill Nye again, looking at issues with dumb stuff like “facts” and “data” (removing my tongue from my cheek – here)…



...also, Chris Hayes talks with Jon Frankel of “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” about the NRA’s marketing to kids (bastards - and our beloved commonwealth is mentioned, though not in a good way on this subject of course)......



...and I’m a little late with Fix Noise’s version of Abraham Lincoln 101, and it’s probably a good thing – truly people, you’d be better off watching paint dry than subjecting yourself to a single minute of their programming...



...and “the quiet Beatle” would have been 71 today.

Monday Stuff

RIP Harold Ramis



…and Rev. Al tells about the debunking of the latest lies from Chuck and Dave (The Kochs, that is) on the Affordable Care Law



…and I have to admit that I’m a little puzzled by some of the anti-Piers Morgan sentiment I’m finding out there from our side, or maybe just ambivalence anyway, in light of the cancellation of his program (here)…yes, it was stupid to goad Fix Noise humanoid Megyn Kelly since that’s food and drink pretty much to people like her, but Morgan really “walked the walk” on the gun issue in this country, as he did here, earning the predictable emnity from the usual suspects…



…and it looks like there are traces of snow in this video – I sincerely hope that’s the last I see of the white stuff for a little while.
