Oh man what an action packed schedule tonight on “The David Goldstein Show”, 7PM to 10PM on Newsradio 710-KIRO:
7PM: Who killed the Home Buyer’s Bill of Rights? (And why?)
Or is it really dead? Attorney Sandy Levy, who represents both builders and aggrieved homebuyers joins me by phone to explain what a new home warranty is good for consumers, and the bill’s sponsor, state Sen. Brian Weinstein will also join me with an update on an emotional political fight that left state Rep. Brendan Williams threatening to quite the House.
8PM: Is Rep. Dennis Kucinich unelectable?
Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Dennis Kucinich will be in-studio, sitting across the desk from me for the hour… so why not call in and ask him yourself? Or you could ask him about some important issues, like the war in Iraq, universal health care, his proposal for a Department of Peace, and more.
9PM: Are sick and dying cats the canary in the coal mine?
A Del Monte Foods spokesperson confirmed to me today that the melamine-tainted wheat gluten used in their recalled pet food was indeed sold to them as a “food grade” additive, raising the likelihood that the human food supply may have been contaminated as well. Join me for an update on the latest news in the massive pet food recall, and what this may mean for food safety nationwide.
Tune in tonight (or listen to the live stream) and give me a call: 1-877-710-KIRO (5476).

Why does Bush hate our troops? The brave and wise Democratic party has passed a superb bill that funds our troops in the battlefield. Yet the cowardly draft-dodging Bush says he will veto the bill. How does he expect our brave troops to defend America without money? The Bush regime should be ashamed of itself for hating our troops and America should remember that the patriotic Democratic party did its best to defeat Bush family friend Osama bin Laden and Bush said he’d veto the bill.

We liberal democrats should take the “high road” on the battle for fair wages and immediately start paying our own democrat political volunteers.

NY Times Bitch Slaps Rove!
“The Rovian Era
“Editorial
“Published: April 1, 2007
“Turn over a scandal in Washington these days and the chances are you’ll find Karl Rove. His tracks are everywhere: whether it’s helping to purge United States attorneys, coaching bureaucrats on how to spend taxpayers’ money to promote Republican candidates, hijacking the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives for partisan politics, or helping to organize a hit on the character of one of the first people to publicly reveal the twisting of intelligence reports on Iraq.
“Whatever the immediate objective, Mr. Rove seems focused on one overarching goal: creating a permanent Republican majority, even if that means politicizing every aspect of the White House and subverting the governmental functions of the executive branch. This is not the Clinton administration’s permanent campaign. The Clinton people had difficulty distinguishing between the spin cycle of a campaign and the tone of governing. That seems quaint compared with the Bush administration’s far more menacing failure to distinguish the Republican Party from the government, or the state itself.
“This was, perhaps, the inevitable result of taking the chief operative of a presidential campaign, one famous for his scorched-earth style, and ensconcing him in the White House — not in a political role, but as a key player in the formation of policy. Mr. Rove never had to submit to Senate confirmation hearings. Yet, from the very start, photographs of cabinet meetings showed him in the background, keeping an enforcer’s eye on the proceedings. After his re-election in 2004, President Bush formally put Mr. Rove in charge of all domestic policy.
“In that position, … Mr. Rove took a lead role in selecting federal judges and the hiring — and firing — of United States attorneys. Mr. Rove’s staff maneuvered to fire the prosecutor in Arkansas and replace him with a Rove protégé, and also seems to have been involved in the firing of a United States attorney in New Mexico who refused to file what he considered to be baseless charges of election fraud against Democrats.
“Mr. Rove’s efforts to maintain one-party rule go deep into the government. Last week, we learned about a meeting set up by Mr. Rove’s staff with officials of the General Services Administration that was wildly inappropriate and perhaps illegal. The aim, as outlined by Mr. Rove’s deputy, Scott Jennings, seems to have been to take advantage of the billions of dollars in contracts put out by the agency every year to return Republicans to the majority in Congress in 2008. It included PowerPoint slides on vulnerable House and Senate seats.
“This sort of behavior should not be all that surprising. It was not that long ago that the Bush White House embraced the priorities of the Republican governor of Mississippi and virtually ignored the far greater needs of Louisiana’s Democratic governor after Hurricane Katrina.
“Mr. Rove retreated a bit from the public eye in the heat of the Lewis Libby trial, but after avoiding indictment, he seems to have regained his confidence. Take a look at YouTube to see his bizarre, humor-challenged gyrations … the other night.
“The investigation of the firings of the United States attorneys seems to be closing in on Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, who should have been fired weeks ago. But Congress should bring equal scrutiny to the more powerful Mr. Rove. If it does, especially by forcing him to testify in public, it will find that he has been at the vortex of many of the biggest issues they are now investigating.”

‘US ready to strike Iran on Good Friday’
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF AND AP
The United States will be ready to launch a missile attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities as soon as early this month, perhaps “from 4 a.m. until 4 p.m. on April 6,” according to reports in the Russian media on Saturday.
According to Russian intelligence sources, the reports said, the US has devised a plan to attack several targets in Iran, and an assault could be carried out by launching missiles from fighter jets and warships stationed in the Persian Gulf.
Russian news agency RIA Novosti quoted a security official as saying, “Russian intelligence has information that the US Armed Forces stationed in the Persian Gulf have nearly completed preparations for a missile strike against Iranian territory.”

Roger Rabbit spews:
@25 Damn right! We need to stop THIS bullshit right now:
“A confidential campaign directed by GOP party chiefs in October 2004 sought to challenge the ballots of tens of thousands of voters …. One group of voters wrongly identified by the Republicans as registering to vote from false addresses: servicemen and women sent overseas.
“Here’s how the scheme worked: The RNC mailed these voters letters in envelopes marked, ‘Do not forward’, to be returned to the sender. These letters were mailed to servicemen and women … to their US home addresses. The letters then returned to the Bush-Cheney campaign as ‘undeliverable.’ The lists of soldiers of ‘undeliverable’ letters were transmitted … to the RNC in Washington. The party could then challenge the voters’ registration and thereby prevent their absentee ballots being counted.
“One target list was comprised exclusively of voters registered at the Jacksonville, Florida, Naval Air Station. Jacksonville is third largest naval installation in the US, best known as home of the Blue Angels fighting squandron. [See this scrub sheet at http://flickr.com/photo_zoom.g.....038;size=o ] …
“A soldier returning home in time to vote in November 2004 could also be challenged on the basis of the returned envelope. Soldiers challenged would be required to vote by ‘provisional’ ballot. Over one million provisional ballots cast in the 2004 race were never counted; over half a million absentee ballots were also rejected. The extraordinary rise in the number of rejected ballots was the result of the widespread multi-state voter challenge campaign by the Republican Party. …
“The BBC obtained several dozen confidential emails sent by the Republican’s national Research Director and Deputy Communications chief, Tim Griffin to GOP Florida campaign chairman Brett Doster and other party leaders. Attached were spreadsheets marked, ‘Caging.xls.’ Each of these contained several hundred to a few thousand voters and their addresses. A check of the demographics of the addresses on the ‘caging lists,’ as the GOP leaders called them indicated that most were in African-American majority zip codes.
“The party has refused to say why it would mark soldiers as having ‘bad addresses’ subject to challenge when they had been assigned abroad. …
“Setting up such a challenge list would be a crime under federal law. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 outlaws mass challenges of voters where race is a factor in choosing the targeted group. …
“Soldiers sending in their ballot from abroad would not know their vote was lost because of a challenge.
Quoted under Fair Use; for complete story and/or copyright info, see http://tinyurl.com/jv9nf
Roger Rabbit Commentary: What kind of scumbags would take adventage of soldiers deployed overseas to deprive them of their right to vote? Republican scumbags, that’s who! Note that this “caging” operation was ILLEGAL. That means everyone GOP party worker who was involved in this scheme can be prosecuted for a felony and sent to prison. When (not if) Democrats take control of the executive branch in Jan. 2009, a new group of federal prosecutors are going to hunt down and jail every one of these Republican slimeballs.

Roger Rabbit @ 32
I don’t think the challenged voters were selected by race. They were probably selected from precincts that vote heavily Democrat. If you are in Duval County, Florida (Jacksonville), almost all of the 75%+ Democrat precincts tend to be majority African-American.
Just like if the Democrats decided to challenge suspicious voters in precincts that voted 75%+ Republican. Almost all of these precincts would be nearly all white.
In neither case would voters be targeted by their race, but instead by the way the precinct in which they live happens to vote.

Hi, Puddybud. (from 5:49 AM)
In reading over SB 5735, I see at least one issue, although the added accountability may be enough to overcome the objection, and certainly the bill could easily be amended to deal with it.
In this area, one thing that people do is to buy vacant lots, then hire a contractor to build a house (HiLine and Stanbrooke are popular), then sell the house. The property owner will often do small non-structural things, like landscaping.
These homes are built by licenced, bonded contractors, and are often priced very competitively with the larger developments, with the added advantage of being outside of the “cookie cutter” neighborhoods.
My reading of this bill requires the property owner to register as a general contractor. Many of these folks are primarily acting as investors, and would certainly not qualify for a contractor’s license.
So, is this an issue of consumer protection, or of the large developers trying to run the little guys out of the business?

MATT DRUDGE CAUGHT WITH CHILD PORNOGRAPHY
**Exclusive**
Officials say that internet gossip site owner Matt Drudge has been caught with a huge collection of child pornography. Sources say called Drudge’s collection “gigantic” and full of “revolting, absolutely illegal porn” involving minors. “I can’t believe the foul stuff this man had stashed in a locked room in his basement,” said one official.
Drudge has been a convtroversial online presence for over a decade, and remains the source for many mainstream reporters today. Not long ago, ABC political reporter Mark Halperin and Washington Post reporter John Harris (the latter now of Politico.com) wrote a book together where they admitted that, quote, “Matt Drudge rules our world.”
One of the main complaints made about Drudge is that he passes on unsourced, unverified gossip as “news” which he claims is “developing.”
His “stories” are, in turn, picked up by mainstream media outlets like ABC and the Washington Post — and the story gains credibility, despite having no basis in facts. Drudge has prominently featured many stories over the years that were later proven to be 100% false, but which were speculated on at length in the media before exposed as fraudulent. The damage was, in fact, already done.
Some have said that Matt Drudge himself makes up these stories, hiding behind his lack of accountability — as well the support of mainstream cheerleaders like Halperin and Harris.
It’s uncertain just what Drudge’s fate will be now, after apparently being discovered with what reports have called “an immense amount of illegal, immoral, and downright disgusting material.” One local official said: “We’ve suspected Drudge for years, but finally got the clue we needed. This guy is sick, and dangerous. He should be locked up right away.”

George W. Bush’s Demise: Ronald Wilson Reagan
The debate is over; the era of modern day conservatism made popular by the iconic conservative leader Ronald Reagan, officially came to an end on November 7, 2006.
The Conservative Christian movement got exactly what it wished for; a Republican dominated congress and an Evangelical, born-again Christian as president. The results of which speak for themselves. As the adage goes “Be careful of what you wish for because you just might get it.”
George W. Bush’s true legacy will not be his inability to achieve military victory in Iraq or Afghanistan, or ignoring the warnings about al Qeada and allowing 9/11 to happen on his watch, Katrina, failing to capture bin Laden, falling wages, rising poverty, millions going without health care, outing an undercover CIA operative, abusing the civil liberties of every American, election fraud, doubling the national debt, the emergence of North Korea as a nuclear power on his watch, obstructing justice through the firings of select US Attorney’s, or any other of his numerous failures.
No, the real legacy of George W. Bush will be hidden in the arrogance of Ronald Wilson Reagan. It was Reagan’s “11th Commandment”, and all the connotations behind the word “Commandment” for Conservative Christians of not saying anything ill of a fellow Republican. That led to blind loyalty to party and president over the Constitution, as Reagan had commanded.
No matter how far out of bounds Bush went, the Republican controlled congress remained loyal to Bush and abandoned their loyalty pledge to the Constitution and the Rule of Law as our Founding Fathers envisioned. Had the Republicans found just a modicum of honesty and performed “some” oversight of Bush and restrained him at just two or three critical junctures, policed their own corruption somewhat, and curtailed Rep. Foley’s penchant for young page boys years before it was exposed, the Republicans would surely have remained in control of congress.
The South has lost its political clout as a force to be reckoned with, and will lose more of it’s clout in 2008. Republican voter registration of people under 25 mirror’s Fox News channel demographics in this age category: dismal.
The interior west of the United States is turning bluer; either by Californian’s leaving the Golden State with real estate fortunes that allow them to buy “cheaper” property else where and with it their liberal votes, and/or people have grown tired of being lied to by the conservatives and are looking elsewhere. Remembering what a real booming economy meant and what real peace and stability looked like under President Clinton, Bush and the neocon conservatives are stark reminders that the Democratic Party is the party for growth and stability in the future.
People like Typical Nazi, Richard Pope, YO, Puddybud, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Right On, janet s. and the rest of their ilk are on the wrong side of history and the wrong side of honesty. They are ships without a moral compass navigating through the stormy seas of politics. They, like many other conservatives hooked their wagon to the Bush Administration’s horse; what they don’t realize is that Bush has already gone over the cliff. The longer they hang on to their conservative beliefs the more of them that will follow Bush off the cliff of irrelevance. The landing on this political fallout is going to be a sudden and hard.
As victorious Liberals, we need not bother ourselves in meaningless arguments with immature and failed conservatives rooted in the past. They are of no value to us or America. We are moving forward with purpose and our cause is justified and noble because it is grounded in the principles of Liberalism set forth by our Founding Fathers.
“As Mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality.
~George Washington.
The only thing left for the Republican Party is to redefine who and what they are as a national political organization and move on.
