I think that he watered himself down too much in 2000. Don't think he'd have to this time around.<BR/><BR/>Pia: We're in concordance. I want to say more but I think that says it all.<BR/><BR/>Miz B: I was a big fan of The Practice back in the day, though I stopped watching when the original main character left the show. I'm trying to get my hands on the episodes featuring Alan Shore now. I saw everything coming but the kiss, and while I had the feeling it was coming when the door closed, I still wasn't quite ready for it.<BR/><BR/>I have a number of specific beefs with Hillary. Pia touched on one of them. Another is her joining in the witch-hunt against video games, which she did without real knowledge of the subject matter, and almost undoubtedly intended on padding her family-friendly street cred. And I find it hard to support anyone who says that flag-burning should be illegal. And she was and is far too quiet about Iraq.<BR/><BR/>I loved her as First Lady, and agreed with every single thing she did then. She was perhaps the greatest ever to hold the position. Laura Bush is a lobotomized smiling housewife in comparison, I agree. And if I thought that she'd be the same sort of politician as President as she was when she was First Lady then I'd vote for her in a heartbeat. But she's different now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17915186427167408768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1161919687114971972006-10-26T23:28:00.000-04:002006-10-26T23:28:00.000-04:00Oh you are the sweetest esoteric being I know and ...Oh you are the sweetest esoteric being I know and this bohemian just loooooves you to pieces!<BR/><BR/>The kiss was typical David E. Kelley writing common of twists he used to use in the Practice... had never seen it in the US but, well, stuck in Spain and reruns being shown on BBC have proven entertaining... and the twist of accusing the mother of the murder and catching her by surprise was the very famous Plan B the lawyers on the Practice were famous for doing...<BR/><BR/>... so I kinda saw it coming...<BR/><BR/>... but it was brilliant nevertheless. I just love David E. Kelley...<BR/><BR/>Yeah, thinking the same thing about the number of characters... I guess it expands their storyline scenarios and the like and can appeal to a wider audience, maybe, but I prefer fewer characters. It feels more intimate that way and the addition of these two new ones felt out of place so I am interested to see where they are going with it all...<BR/><BR/>I, being in Spain, have not had the chance to truly follow Hilary's career and moves but I have always liked her... she has had the balls to not stand there in the background, smiling and waving away like a fucking Stepford wife and in spite of much criticism against her forges on ahead, is well spoken and intelligent and capable and, everytime I have seen her, has been unafraid to speak her mind.<BR/><BR/>They had this thing on CBS morning news I believe and it was reported that Laura Bush has a 68% approval rating, 30 more than the fucker she is married to and that is mind boggling to me!!! I want to sucker punch that bitch's smile off her stupid, robot face!<BR/><BR/>BAH!<BR/><BR/>I cannot wait to come back and be knee-deep in it all!<BR/><BR/>For now, I have mostly been following SF politics and admit to just loving Mayor Newsom and I shall be on a geeky, idiot high the day I get to vote for him, if he runs again...<BR/><BR/>As for the upcoming voting, done... absentee ballot sent in so for now, I am good to go...Miz BoheMiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12684634451330079565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1161839471096463232006-10-26T01:11:00.000-04:002006-10-26T01:11:00.000-04:00after seeing Al Gore's movie on global warming, I ...after seeing Al Gore's movie on global warming, I don't expect him to ever win, mainly because while I find myself agreeing with him wholeheartedly, he goes about it the wrong way. Namely, one of his staffers should've told him to leave out his personal life in the movie, he comes off smarmy, much like he did when he ran for president, as well as Kerry. I think there needs to be a unknown who rises up and firmly believes the stuff they're saying. I'm not convinced Kerry or Gore believed everything they said. <BR/><BR/>also, some would argue there is very little different between most of the politicians in both parties. The loudest voices are the most extreme voices, on both sides, and they create the idea that parties need to hold the line. <BR/><BR/>gotta love it.Mickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292432520502321068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1161803120990963052006-10-25T15:05:00.000-04:002006-10-25T15:05:00.000-04:00Mimey: Sure wouldn't mind if it did.Also, yes, tha...Mimey: Sure wouldn't mind if it did.<BR/><BR/>Also, yes, that sounds about right and I'm sorry I've been slacking<BR/><BR/>Cooper: Religion is irrelevant to presidential politics. That's the only thing that Democratic candidates should say about religion in general when it comes up. They should say that the only relevence it has in the matter is artificially injected by a vocal minority of zealots. The point of the matter is whenever a candidate embraces it it is ALWAYS skewed from one direction or another and it's ALWAYS divisive. If someone's in a religious minority they're expected to shrug it off. If Kennedy hadn't disavowed his Catholicism, he wouldn't have been elected.<BR/><BR/>If religion is a part of the presidential discourse it becomes an election issue and if it becomes an election issue it becomes policy. and that's horseshit.<BR/><BR/>My fuck yous only go out to the crazy right. I have nothing against Christianity at large. By all accounts, and I mean historical not cannonical, Christ was a hell of a guy even if he wasn't the son of God, and the world was better for him. But he doesn't belong on the campaign trail.<BR/><BR/>I mean, as things are, what chance does an athiest or agnostic have of getting elected nationally? None. Is that reflective of a working system?<BR/><BR/>Some predators are inescapably sexy.

Congratulations on the vi...You is a bad ass Wombat. Congratulations on the victorious.<BR/><BR/>I remember what Obama said, and the fact is that he said it belongs in the discourse not in the policy.<BR/><BR/> I am agnostic, as you know, but understanding that a good percentage of this country is Christian - and not crazy whoa fucking Christian but just regular old I want to keep my religion to myself Christian - and that last time around the derision - some of the extreme left wing dems - exhibited toward those same Christians ( I think) is what gave Bush the election. It wasn't the crazy right wing evangelicals that won that election it was those undecided middle of the road Christians who did not appreciate the derisive attitude and did not realize what they had to lose. <BR/>They realize it now of course..<BR/><BR/>Again, Obama - many questions outside his box of charisma – still to be answered.<BR/><BR/>My spreadsheet is open and includes Hilary.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you on too many characters despite the fact that they seem to be able to develop them fairly completely in such a short time.<BR/><BR/>Nice to know you are find predators sexy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1161764353733740012006-10-25T04:19:00.000-04:002006-10-25T04:19:00.000-04:00I love the story about your doppelganger.
