Tonight on “The David Goldstein Show”, 7PM to 10PM on Newsradio 710-KIRO:
7PM: Is nothing sacred?
Politics is a dirty business, but are there any areas of a candidate’s life that is absolutely off limits? Writing on Slog, Josh Feit frets that it is “tacky to report on a politician’s religion,” before proceeding to report on Rep. Dave Reichert’s active membership in the ultra-fundamentalist Missouri Synod Lutheran Church. If Reichert’s religion is off limits, why not John Edwards’ haircut or Bill Clinton’s sex life… or the fact that Laura Bush killed her boyfriend?
8PM: But what about the pie crust?
King County bans Crisco! Oh no! Erika Nuerenberg, Senior Advisor to King County Council member Julia Patterson, and Trent House, Dir. Government Affairs for the Washington Restaurant Association, will join me for the hour talk about the county’s ban on trans-fat, and new nutritional labeling requirements for chain restaurants.
9PM: Prison overcrowding: supply or demand?
We’re running out of space in our region’s local jails. Is it time to start building more prisons, or maybe start treating drug addiction as a public health problem rather than a criminal one?
Tune in tonight (or listen to the live stream) and give me a call: 1-877-710-KIRO (5476).

Goldy you could cut your cost by out sourcing the jails, guards, and the criminals to Mexico or Cuba. Have the Human rights groups monitor thier proper care and Lucy’s method of loving your con. Then when they have finished serving their time return them to Boston to serve out their probation. With all that East Coast Love they will turn out to be outstanding Social Democrats. What a bargain for the Tax payers and the city of Boston. Now you can boast that you have no Blacks or Hispanics in your jail system. They will now be in some bodies else’s back yard. True NIMBY’s!
klake spews:
Goldy you old friend Tim Eyman is back in the news today doing what he best known for initiatives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tim Eyman’s latest initiative has secured a spot on the November statewide ballot. Initiative 960 is the only citizen initiative to qualify this year, an unusually small number in a state that often votes on a variety of issues.
Secretary of State Sam Reed announced this week that a random check of Eyman’s 314,504 petition signatures showed enough to secure a place on the ballot. The measure would close some loopholes in the state’s spending limit law and require much more public information about all tax proposals in Olympia.
An opposition group already has formed, and Eyman, known for his anti-tax initiatives, said in a telephone interview from Yakima that he will lead a “counterpunch campaign.” A King County Superior Court judge last week rejected critics’ attempts to keep the measure off the ballot.
klake spews:
Goldy this subject matter is never off limits for the Far Far Liberals plate. Anything goes if you can spoil a Republican chance to win an Election including stuffing the ballot box. For Socialist Democrats you can only speak in a Political Correct manner and on limited subject matter. All folks from Louisiana it’s ok to be criminals except Republicans.

Webb was killed with an ax
Suspect charged with murder
By CAROL SMITH
P-I REPORTER
Goldy don’t forget about you sweet friend Mike Web and how his friend axed him to death. Question will this be considered a hate crime or not? Will you support the Death Penitently? After all it is a crime commited against a gay defenseless person.
Scott Brian White told radio talk-show host Mike Webb he was going out for a cigarette in the early morning hours of April 14.
Instead, he told police, he reached under the bed the two shared, grabbed a double-edged ax he had stored there earlier and bludgeoned to death the man who had given him shelter.
klake spews:
OH I FORGOT:
Roger is the Minister for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda for the Socialist Democrats Party today just like Paul Joseph Goebbels was in Hitler Germany. His Nazi friends taught him the trade when he visited them in jail.
Lets not forget his friend YOS LIB BRO who lost his ass and doesn’t know the difference from it and a hole in the ground.
klake spews:
Goldy you need to have an education in order to read the label and Seattle’s School District is failing there so why print the labels? Besides why stop with trans-fat, include sugar like they did in Germany in the late sixties. By the way does Erika Nuerenberg hold a membership in the Nazi party? King County needs to cut staff if thats all they got to do with their spare time. O’h I forgot you can’t fire a government work they have Union right’s, and that would be cruel and unusual punishment for a Socialist Democrat.
King County bans Crisco! Oh no! Erika Nuerenberg, Senior Advisor to King County Council member Julia Patterson, and Trent House, Dir.

Gosh klake, even with spell checker, you still can’t spell. Maybe home schooled. Have I ever told you now much you bore me with your incessant drivel?
RightEqualsStupid spews:
We need more oil refinery capacity. I suggest we locate said capacity in Salt Lake City, UT, Olathe, KS, Boise, ID and Bellevue, WA. These are highly Publican areas that are no doubt full of idiots claiming we need more oil. Let’s see if they really want more oil.
31st District Voter spews:
Goldy: Ultra-Fundamentalist? How about knowing a little bit of what you talk about. Lots of churches hold (including Catholics) many of the same beliefs as the Missouri Synod…are they all ‘ultra-fundamentalists’, too?
Did you hold John Kerry’s profession of his Catholic faith against him? Representative Keith Ellison’s Muslim faith? Kinda doubt it.
A person’s faith is one thing when they don’t have a voting record and you’re trying to figure out how they *may* vote, but Riechert has a voting record and a long track record which speaks for itself (good and bad). Trying to tag him with the ‘ultra-fundamentalist’ label will do nothing but backfire and hurt Burner (which this is all about, we all know) in exactly those areas of the 8th District where she has to do better.

Mark The Redneck Goldstein spews:
RES – BTW…. here’s some free education for you.
Did you know Bill Clinton was impeached and disabarred because he lied to a grand jury in a failed attempt to conceal a pattern of predatory behavior in connection with a felony assault case that he settled for $800,000?
Geez, can ya imagine being too fucking dishonest to be a laywer?
YOS LIB BRO spews:
18 – BROKEN RECORD, PAY YOUR FUCKING GAMBLING DEBT.
Mark The Redneck Goldstein spews:
libro – I think it’s important to remind you fucking idiots that your hero was a serial predator criminal. If any manager in any murkan corporation did what he did, he’d be fired in a heartbeat. If any military officer did what bubba did, he’d get a dishonorable discharge.
As Limbaugh says, librulism is all about lowering standards. So lemme ask ya… should the preznit be held to a lower standard than a corporate manager or a military officer?
Apparently so….
chadt spews:
Mark,
Has anyone else in your family had a lobotomy?
Did it work out better for them? Is anyone in your family employed? Have any graduated from high school? Who supplies you with your medications? Have you tried to find a more reliable provider?
Is there anything we can do to help?
RightEqualsStupid spews:
MTR here’s some education for you…did you know GW Bush went AWOL after his daddy pulled strings to get him into the NG ahead of 125,000 other people? Did you know GW Bush was arrested for and pled guilty to DUI? Did you know GW Bush bankrupted three companies his daddy gave him? And did you know that trying to deflect Bush’s hypocritical behavior by talking about a guy who isn’t even running for office just reminds all of us that AT BEST – Bush is no better than Clinton? And you’re on THEIR side? I am SOOOOO glad. Keep it up you baby-raping, cum-drunk coward. PLEASE.
RightEqualsStupid spews:
Mark – when your parents got a divorce were you concerned that they would no longer be brother and sister?

michael spews:
Laura Bush isn’t and hasn’t run for anything, so yeah, that should be off limits.
A Congressmen who tries to position himself as middle of the road but, votes right wing and attends a right wing church? Yeah, that’s fair game. His church attendance becomes part of the evidence that he’s not the middle-roader that he claims to be.
And in this case it would also be fair game to go after Josh Feit for being a prat.
ArtFart spews:
20 Limbaugh Now, if there’s anyone on the planet who knows about “lowering standards”, there’s the guy. A drug addict with two failed marriages presenting himself as a paragon of virtue. What a lofty pinnacle of achievement!
ArtFart spews:
Why are they just imposing “truth-in-labeling” standards on fast food chains? Why the hell shouldn’t Canlis, Palisade and the Columbia Tower Club be required to do the same thing?
Could it be because that’s where our esteemed civic leaders dine?
ArtFart spews:
I’ve known some Mo. Synod Lutherans in my time…even a couple of relatives are part of that gang. My biggest objection to them used to be that they were just plain depressing. They’d get together in church, sing a few dirges and listen to someone go on and on about what hopeless sinful wretches they were. It was almost like the “sermon” in Cold Comfort Farm.
Well, my last exposure was considerably different. I was part of the most vibrant, joyous Palm Sunday service I think I’ve ever experienced anywhere. Methinks it all depends more than anything else on the particular bunch of folks in a given congragation, and how they collectively see and act upon their faith.
RightEqualsStupid spews:
Laura Bush goes off limits the minute that the righties agree to put The Clinton’s daughter off limits, John Edwards’ wife off limits, Obama’s family off limits. In other words, never.
Fuck that cunt Laura Bush – she killed a guy.
Mark spews:
“Right wing” church? What an unbelievably dishonest accusation. Show me a passage ANYWHERE in the Bible where it says ANYTHING about “right wing”, or for that matter “left wing”.
Rabbi Whoopi Goldstein spews:
“After all it is a crime commited against a gay defenseless person.” Not so much. Webb got a gun. Apparently he needed one, but was so busy “mentoring” that he forgot to use it.
Laura Bush = Teddy Kennedy? Gag me. The only similarities are: cars, dark nights, wrong turns.
She was 17. Drunky McTed was a 30-something United States Senator who failed for a night and a big part of next day to report the “accident” that he subsequently bought his way out of. Somebody here implied that he was exonerated by the courts. He actually subverted the courts, beat the system, and probably bought off Kopechne’s parents. That’s how Kennedy’s play the game. Check out Seymour Hersh’s Dark Side of Camelot.
(Somebody here wrote that Bill Clinton was found innocent by the Senate. No, Senators checked the polls and failed to build a supermajority to convict Clinton of the crimes to which Clinton publicly confessed after the blue dress made it impossible to keep on lying. He admitted, nine years ago this month, that he was a lying liar. It’s called perjury and obstruction of justice, since he lied to investigators, a grand jury, and suborned perjury from Bettie Curry. Or Betty Currie. Forget which.)

Reichert’s religion is fair game? So are Goldstein’s gonads. How did that fey twit, that rotter and wanker, become a breeder? Inquiring minds want to know.

And if, by some weird parthenogenesis, Goldstein did reproduce, the next question is: Should he have been allowed to? I mean, isn’t there a compelling social interest is preventing this sort of thing? Or in preventing his sort of thing from, you know, …

If it’d drive you even nuttier than you are now, it’d get my vote. That’s be funny, indeed.

Sad for all deaths spews:
I read the linked bartcop article about Laura Bush killing the guy in the car accident. They described her using the words “felt responsible, saddened, withdrew, hurt on her face, haunt her.” None of those feelings were ever attributed to Ted driving Mary Jo off the bridge. There were no words about Laura Bush trying to cover up the accident or leaving him to suffer a slow death. Comparing this accident to the accident turned intentional murder of May Jo is a reflection of your political partisanship.

Is this the type of message that you want viewers seeing on your blog?
immoderator spews:
The sensitive, perceptive comment of Stupid=Stupid regarding Our Laura represents the best of the new improved HA. That nice Mr. Goldstein works hard, hard, to build a sensitive, perceptive, insightful site for the tolerant but disciplined exchange of enlightened opinion, the exaltation of the diversity that made left-wing lunacy what it is today.
