    The leader of the Democrats in the Florida State Senate has withdrawn his endorsement for Edwards and endorsed Mike Gravel.

    Bill Maher is brilliant. Hey, you trollfucks out there, who might you possibly nominate on your side who has as much wit and wisdom as Bill Maher? All you guys have is fearmongering, horseshit, and oh, yeah, fearmongering.

    Maybe this has already appeared in extravaganzas past, but BlatherWatch‘s latest post contains a classic vid from the Onion about immigration that’s well worth checking out.

    Is there anyone out there that can recommend a “Product Liability” Attorney in Seattle? My Lawyer doesn’t handle this type of work and didn’t have anybody to refer me to. Thought I would ask here, before trolling the yellow pages.

    Dealing with defective Phoenix ABS Pipes from when my house was built. http://abspipessettlement.com/ faq.cfm The lady at the phone # I was referred says they will only pay 60% of replacing pipes – no funding towards mold, repairs, or major structure damage. Totally different info from what the Class Action Settlement says. I just need to talk it through with a lawyer before venturing on. I understand there were about 20-25 other so-called “California” houses built here, not sure how I could find out if any attorney already might have experience with this. Thanks if you can give info. Desperate situation.

    Did anyone see Mike Huckabee on CNN Reliable Sources today?

    He was spouting crazy wingnut bullshit again. He was saying “Just because we never found WMD in Iraq [after the 2003 invasion and occupation] doesn’t meant they weren’t there. I think they were.”

    Yeah, sure, pal. After intrusive inspections prior to March 2003 tunred up nothing, not a single precursor chemical, not a single bacterium, and no nuclear program as flatly declared by Mohammed ElBaradai in march 2003 (if y’al are having a hard time remembering, it was the same statement where he declared the Niger documents to be demonstrably false). Yeah, how could we have known anything about the total absence of WMD before invading?

    And then in the four years that we have been in absolute military control of the country with both the Iraq Survey Group and the US military searching for WMD, again without finding a single molecule of any sort of chemical or biological weapon that was not already known by 1995, and our idiot president himself disbanded all efforts to find them, that doesn’t mean much, right?

    I mean, who’s to say? All of the evidence of the worlds’s top experts with years of trying could be wrong and Huckabee and Frank Gaffney could be right, dontcha think?

    When monkeys fly out my ass.

    That fucker is crazier than Rudy MussonliniGiuliani, and that’s saying quite a bit.

    Dinosour’s campaign is taking shape. The Loser is running AGAINST Christine Gregoire. He’s not running FOR anything. No vision, no alternative agenda, merely anti-Gregoire and we-wuz-robbed. I predict this will get him 38% of the vote — right up there with Motherbeater Irons, Insurance Boss McGavick, and cigaret smoke.

    @6 Call Steve Berman’s office and ask if they know anything about it or can recommend someone. He does a lot of class actions. Chances are other homeowners are in the same boat and there’s an attorney out there who’s on top of the issues.

    One thing to watch out for in class action cases is that if the issue has already been litigated and a settlement has been reached, unless you opted out of the litigation, you may be bound by the terms of the settlement.

    I think there’s a gigantic carrot buried under Green Lake Park and I’m gonna keep digging until I find it even if I have to dig 100,000 holes.

    @ 10, Thanks RR!!!!

    Hadn’t thought to tackle via that (Class Action Attny) direction. Will call him tomorrow. Yes, I may be bound by the terms and probably not able to opt out. But their terms, listed on their website, and what the lady on the phone said are two entirely different things. She sent me the claim form (which I couldn’t find on the website) but absolutely NO other documentation to describe what she was saying. Leaves me groping in the dark.

    “I think there’s a gigantic carrot buried under Green Lake Park and I’m gonna keep digging until I find it even if I have to dig 100,000 holes.”

    Thanks also for the laugh, truly needed it. I could just picture that fluffy cotton tail working overtime! Without toilet paper… watch out for the goose droppings around Greenlake!

    Ah, yes. Roger Rabbi, jumping from hole to hole, polluting the gene pool.
    =========
    Doorknob Dan Savage and I have the hots for the same woman. Florence King was resident misanthrope at National Review where she was particularly perceptive in year 2000 about the governor of Texas, an insufferable snot who should have been slapped smartly, told to wipe the gooney grimace off his face, to stand up straight, and to stop doing disgraceful things on the rug in front of grown ups.

    Then Florence faded away, perhaps to a greater reward. You know how it is … boy finds foxy crone of his dreams, boy loses foxy crone of his dreams.

    Well, she’s back, came back while I wasn’t looking to American Spectator (Slime Mag called it “the bratty American Spectator”) that I thought had also gone to a greater or lesser reward, a victim of the murderous Clintons. You remember how Bill and shrill Hill took down those who tried to take down them: erectile Bob Dole, snuffed; sex fiend Ken Starr, taken out; ditto Gingrich, Livingstone, and Hyde.

    Also ditto American Spectator, but it only smells dead, and Florence King is in it. In print she pats Keith Olbermann on his pointy little head, smartly slaps Bill O’Reilly, slaps him again, and writes that she’s old enough to remember FDR as president. Love him or hate him, admire or despise him, she knew and you knew, by God, that FDR was president. You know that the current incumbent, by contrast, is an insufferable snot.
