THE TUNNEL TO NOWHERE I like many others here in Kitsap County tried to stop this GOLDEN TUNNEL nonsense a few years back (not much unlike this Wall Street Bailout that's going on right now). We lost the Tunnel battle as we surly will this Bailout effort. The tunnel being built to divert ferry traffic off downtown streets will cost the city about $17,000 a year to maintain, it was reported last week. The total bill for maintaining the one-way, 959-foot, $50 million tunnel will be $58,000 a year, Williams said, with the state paying the remaining $41,000. Alaska HAD it's Bridge To Nowhere, Bremerton has it's GOLDEN TUNNEL TO NOWHERE. There is NO JOY in this Post. * - - - - - * Michael Moore had a few words about this Bailout Plan:Let me cut to the chase. The biggest robbery in the history of this country is taking place as you read this. Though no guns are being used, 300 million hostages are being taken. Make no mistake about it: After stealing a half trillion dollars to line the pockets of their war-profiteering backers for the past five years, after lining the pockets of their fellow oilmen to the tune of over a hundred billion dollars in just the last two years, Bush and his cronies -- who must soon vacate the White House -- are looting the U.S. Treasury of every dollar they can grab. They are swiping as much of the silverware as they can on their way out the door. No matter what they say, no matter how many scare words they use, they are up to their old tricks of creating fear and confusion in order to make and keep themselves and the upper one percent filthy rich. Just read the first four paragraphs of the lead story in last Monday's New York Times and you can see what the real deal is: "Even as policy makers worked on details of a $700 billion bailout of the financial industry, Wall Street began looking for ways to profit from it. "Financial firms were lobbying to have all manner of troubled investments covered, not just those related to mortgages. "At the same time, investment firms were jockeying to oversee all the assets that Treasury plans to take off the books of financial institutions, a role that could earn them hundreds of millions of dollars a year in fees. "Nobody wants to be left out of Treasury's proposal to buy up bad assets of financial institutions."As I pointed out last Saturday MR. NOUN, VERB AND NINE/ELEVEN Rudy Giuliani has already set up a firm to cash in. * - - - - - * TODAYS BIG NUMBER: 45,46,47. . .

Why is it so hard for these Financial Experts to look back just 5-6 years ago and look at what happened with ENRON. The very first thing that needs to be done is to establish THE RULES. Theses rules should be short, sweet and clear. 1.) YOU WILL NOT LIE. 2.) YOU WILL NOT CHEAT. 3.) YOU WILL GO TO JAIL IF YOU BREAK RULE 1 OR 2. 4.) REMOVE THE FOLLOING FROM THE PLAN.Sec. 8. Review.

REVIEW THIS PLAN AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH BY LAW. * - - - - - * Most Americans say U.S. losing 'war on terror.' A new Ipsos/McClatchy online poll finds that "a solid majority of 57 percent thinking that the country can win the war on terrorism but a similar majority of 54 percent saying that the country is NOT winning it. If Americans are turning more pessimistic about the so-called war on terrorism, it could present a challenge for McCain." * - - - - - * SEATTLE TIMES INDORSES BARACK OBAMA An economic Katrina is shattering the confidence of hardworking, middle-class Americans. The war that should never have been in Iraq is dragging on too long. At a time of huge challenge, the candidate with the intelligence, temperament and judgment to lead our nation to a better place is Sen. Barack Obama. Obama should be the next president of the United States because he is the most qualified change agent. Obama is a little young, but also brilliant. If he sometimes seems brainy and professorial, that's OK. We need the leader of the free world to think things through, carefully.

Man I don't know about this Bailout BULLSHIT. I think that if they do this thing they need to think it through. We already have one IRAQ on our hands we don't need a second. I don't like the NO OVERSIGHT in this proposal. That needs to be taken out. PERIOD END OF SUBJECT. Controls need to be installed on this plan and on ALL future financial dealings go forward. I'm sick of all the so called SMARTEST GUYS IN THE ROOM. * - - - - - * A NATION OF VILLAGE IDIOTS Don't let them tell you this economic meltdown is a complicated mess. It's not. Our national financial crisis is readily understood by anyone who has seen greed and hypocrisy. But we are now witnessing them on a profound, monumental scale. Conservative Republicans always want the government to stay out of business and avoid regulation as long as they are making lots of money. When their greed, however, gets them into a fix, they are the first to cry out for rules and laws and taxpayer money to bail out their businesses. How did we get here? That's pretty easy to answer, too. His name is Phil Gramm. A few days after the Supreme Court made George W. Bush president in 2000, Gramm stuck something called the Commodity Futures Modernization Act into the budget bill. Nobody knew that the Texas senator was slipping America a 262 page poison pill. The Gramm Guts America Act was designed to keep regulators from controlling new financial tools described as credit "swaps." These are instruments like sub-prime mortgages bundled up and sold as securities. Under the Gramm law, neither the SEC nor the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) were able to examine financial institutions like hedge funds or investment banks to guarantee they had the assets necessary to cover losses they were guaranteeing. And Senator Phil Gramm wanted it completely unregulated. So did Alan Greenspan, who supported the legislation and is now running around to the talk shows jabbering about the horror of it all. Before the highly paid lobbyists were done slinging their gold card guts about the halls of congress, every one from hedge funds to banks were playing with fire for fun and profit. These, then, are the people -- the Republicans -- who want to run our government for four more years. John McCain isn't just one of them. He rides their jets. He takes their campaign donations. He makes them his campaign advisors. And he tells us to trust him. He must think we are a nation of village idiots. Hell, maybe we are. James Moore, Huffington Post * - - - - - * Record one-day jump in oil prices. The price of oil jumped more than $16 to $120.92 a barrel today, the "biggest daily gain in dollar terms since 1984 - when crude began trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange."

Rachel Maddow is outraged because it seems President Bush has another disaster on his hands with the latest economy fallout. Should this rank with his other alleged disasters? Thomas Frank tries to talk Rachel down. * *CINDY DOESN'T LIKE THE VIEW. . . ANYMORE
John McCain had a tough exchange with the hosts of The View during a recent appearance, during which he was pressed on the credentials of running mate Sarah Palin, claims in his campaign ads that co-host Joy Behar called "lies," and how many houses he and his wife own.
Cindy McCain, wife of Republican presidential nominee John McCain, criticized the media at a weekend fundraiser, telling supporters that the hosts of The View "picked our bones clean.""In spite of what you see. . . in the newspapers, and on shows like The View - I don't know if any of you saw The View yesterday, they picked our bones clean - in spite of what you see, that's not what the American people are saying and what they are believing," said McCain, in a recording obtained by ABC News. "They are now seeing a clear difference with these candidates, and they are seeing who is going to make the best president, and that's why we're pulling ahead."* *

He did that when the women on ABC's The View became the first to do what the rest of the corporate media had lacked the BALLS to do, confront the candidate over his lies. McCain responded with the following:
"This is a tough campaign. I have asked Senator Obama to join me in town hall meetings all across America. I have requested it time after time. And if we had done what I asked Senator Obama to do...I don't think you'd see the tenor of this campaign."He refuses to admit that he is lying about Obama, but then subtly suggests that he would stop lying, if only his troublesome opponent would agree to McCain's Town Hall Tour of America.

The JOURNAL traveled to Knoxville, where a recent shooting at the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church has left the pastor asking what role hateful speech from popular right-wing media personalities may have played in the tragedy. "A lot of people are hurling insults from the safety of television studios, the safety of radio studio, the safety of cyberspace," says Rev.

She does understand energy, not only as governor, but as someone who was on the commission that regulated that big industry in Alaska. Twenty percent of all our oil comes from Alaska.In reality, Alaska produces 14.3 percent of the nation's oil. Furthermore, Gov. Sarah Palin recently said Alaska produces 20 percent of the U.S. "energy," when it actually produces 3.5 percent. Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has used the same talking point.

K-9 CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HOROR WINNER
The K9 is Brutus, a military K9 at McChord. He's huge - part Boxer and part British Bull Mastiff and tops the scales at 200 lbs. His handler took the picture. Brutus is running toward me because he knows I have some Milk Bone treats, so he's slobbering away! I had to duck around a tree just before he got to me in case he couldn't stop, but he did.
Brutus won the Congressional Medal of Honor last year from his tour in Iraq. His handler and four other soldiers were taken hostage by insurgents. Brutus and his handler communicate by sign language and he gave Brutus the signal that meant 'go away but come back and find me'. The Iraqis paid no attention to Brutus. He came back later and quietly tore the throat out of one guard at one door and another guard at another door. He then jumped against one of the doors repeatedly (the guys were being held in an old warehouse) until it opened. He went in and untied his handler and they all escaped. He's the first K9 to receive this honor. If he knows you're ok, he's a big old lug and wants to sit in your lap. Enjoys the company of cats.GREAT QUOTE

Sarah Palin's record on requesting hundreds of millions of dollars worth of earmarks, and repeated the lie that Palin had opposed the Bridge to Nowhere in Alaska. "I'm proud of her record as opposing - including the Bridge to Nowhere in Alaska," he said. Watch it: McCain's statement brings the total number of times his campaign has repeated the lie to 35 times. Just yesterday in Colorado, Palin herself declared that she "did tell the Congress, 'Thanks but no thanks for that Bridge to Nowhere.'" * - - - - - *SNL

The argument in the piece is interesting: everyone thinks that drilling will matter, so give them what they want, and then do real energy policy. Maybe that makes sense given the incompetence of the media, but why can't the media report the reality that every energy expert knows -- drilling won't lower prices in any substantial way. By Dean Baker, CERP * - - - - - * Have you noticed how the talking heads for McSAME never like to answer a direct question about an ad or something John McSAME or McPalin have said.

In a hearing in Washington the other day some oil experts where testifying.
After listening all the problems currently facing the country, Senator Whitehouse asked the experts whether anyone thought drilling was the “number one issue” right now. Almost nine seconds went by with complete silence: WHITEHOUSE: Gentlemen, we’re in the middle of a near total mortgage system meltdown in this country. We have a health care system that burns 16 percent of our GDP, in which the Medicare liability alone has been estimated at $34 trillion. We’re burning $10 billion a month in Iraq. This administration has run up $7.7 trillion in national debt, by our calculation. And there is worsening evidence every day of global warming, with worsening environmental and national security ramifications. In light of those conditions, do any of you seriously contend that drilling for more oil is the number one issue facing the American people today?

Even though the U.S. Department of Energy's Energy Information Agency has stated that the benefits from such drilling would be too small to have any significant effect on oil prices, the media has overwhelmingly conveyed the impression that it could. Media coverage of the issue may have influenced public opinion, with a majority now favoring expanded drilling, as proposed by presidential candidate John McCain. "This is a clear case where the overwhelming majority of the media has not done its job, and the McCain campaign is benefiting as a result," said CEPR Co-Director and co-author of the paper, Mark Weisbrot. * - - - - - *

Back in the 1970's Jimmy Carter was right. But will any republican and some democrats admit that he was RIGHT.

The auto industry this week begins a hectic push to get Congress to fund $25 billion in promised loan guarantees. Some in the industry even hope for an additional $25 billion.
The energy bill Congress passed in December mandated a 40% increase in fuel-economy standards by 2020 and provided for $25 billion of loan guarantees to help automakers and suppliers upgrade plants for new, fuel-efficient technology and vehicles. But lawmakers have not yet approved money for them - $3.8 billion for the upfront costs of the initial $25 billion in loan guarantees.

I went over to my daughters yesterday for what they call a baby dedication. That was the first time I had been in a Christian church that had a band up on the alter. We all sat right up front and boy was that a mistake. When they started the service that band hit it and sure got my attention. I thought I was back in my youth and at the "BATTLE OF THE BANDS." I couldn't take it and so I went outside for awhile. When it was time for the dedication the gal that was playing the keyboard got her turn and played music more to my liking. . . soothing and quiet. It was great. There were about 6 or 7 families dedicating their children. They called them all up to the front to bless each of them. They had me and other family and friends come up as well. I must say I DONE GOOD. This was all part of a larger service and my hip and leg was bothering me so I decided to leave early and go home. * - - - - - * I'm not sure of what to make about this Fannie and Freddie take over by the U.S. * - - - - - *

The Talking Heads are all A GAA-GAA about Sarah Palin's speech last night. Come on she was a Mayor and a Governor and I would expect that she knows how to give a speech. The question isn't how she gives the speech but rather what she says that matters to me and all I heard was her mocking Barack Obama. I know she lives real close to Russia (FOX NEWS and Cindy McCain told me that). What I didn't hear is what are her plans to fix the economy, get people back to work, fix the housing market, end the war and bring the troops home. To me it's more of the same BULLSHIT - FEAR, FEAR, FEAR. One last thing I noticed. John McCain was right when he said he was OLD, OLD, REALLY OLD. * - - - - - * I don't know why I'm such a big baby when it comes niddle's, but I am. I went to my Dr. yesterday for some blood tests. The gal that draws the blood does a great job but I need to look away and close my eyes. I just wouldn't make it as a junkie. * - - - - - * I still haven't finished striping the wallpaper in my family room. That little 10 foot by 10 foot patch is hard work.

Jon Stewart gives us not 1 but 5 examples of the BULLSHIT that comes out of the mouths of the folks on FOX NOISE.
1. We start with that GREAT Bush Strategist Karl Rove. Watch how a GREAT MIND works. He can't put his head up his a** any further than what he does with this piece of CRAP.
2. Bily, Billy, Billy. MR. NO SPIN, MR. FAIR AND BALANCED, MR. WHO'S LOOKING OUT FOR YOU, can't say he was taken out of context. These are his words not yours and not mine.
3. Dick Morris what a waste of a human life. FOX couldn't get Bill O'Reilly for the sexism segment so another BUTT FACE stepped in named Dick.
4. Nancy Pfotenhauer, McCain Policy Advisor had something to say about playing the victim card. And isn't it funny how Hillary Clinton needs to suck it up bat Sarah Palin is off limits.
5. And finally Sara Palin herself was AGAINST WHINNING BEFORE SHE WAS FOR IT.
Can you say H*Y*P*O*C*R*I*T*E ALL. * *

POOR JOHN MCSAME he wants to take his ball and go home.
Yesterday CNN's Campbell Brown interviews MCSAME aid Tucker Bounds about the selection of Sara Palin as his VP choice. MCSAME got mad and cancelled an interview on Larry King scheduled later that night. If I ran CNN I'd not have MCSAME on any show for the next two weeks. He is just being a BUTT and a cry baby. One other thing that I've heard over and over by the republicans and that is whenever a question about Palin is asked that they don't like they say that "that comment is offensive". Next thing you know if you ask them the time of day they'll call you out on it as being offensive. Watch this short interview and see if you agree with MCSAME. * *THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION 1 OF 2

I saw this on a post and it reminded me that back when Britney Spears little sister Jamie announced she was pregnant the christen right slammed her parents for not being good parents. What a difference a name makes.Well the news about McCain's Vice President nominee's daughter being pregnant at the young age of 17 and not being married, has left Jamie Lynn Spears (Britney's Spears 16 year old sister) in the back seat. Again. The party of "family values" has now turned into the party of "trailer trash", much like republicans would call Jamie Lynn Spears or any other individual who are in a similar situation, although the republicans wouldn't be as nice as they are to Palin's daughter. You have to wonder what happened to the classes on ABSTINENCE. Or why a 17 year old didn't have a bucket full of condoms just in case her (or his) family values got loose. Or what was the father of the unborn child doing porkin' the Governors daughter? Didn't he know the mom was a major redneck and had not one, but TWO shotguns? Did either of them go to church or read the damn bible? Or sign an ABSTINENCE CARD in high school? Or learn how to pray when their hormones got to moanin'? Well, I am just glad this didn't happen to anyone else besides a republican politician, because the republicans would have blamed the worlds ills on them. Or on Bill.* - - - - - * Bill O'Reilly was crying the blues because of the news about Sarah Palins pregnant teen daughter. He said he didn't want to cover this story but he just had to. Why is that?

Jon Stewart reports on the democratic convention.
* *PALIN'S SMALL ALASKA TOWN SECURED BIG EARMARK FUNDS
They like to say that Palin STOPPED the BRIDGE TO NOWHERE but as far as I can see SHE WAS FOR IT BEFORE SHE WAS AGAINST IT.
By Paul Kane; Washington Post Staff Writer Palin's Small Alaska Town Secured Big Federal Funds Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin employed a lobbying firm to secure almost $27 million in federal earmarks for a town of 6,700 residents while she was its mayor, according to an analysis by an independent government watchdog group. In introducing Palin as his running mate on Friday, Sen. John McCain cast her as a compatriot in his battle against wasteful federal spending. McCain, the Republican presidential candidate, hailed Palin as a politician "with an outstanding reputation for standing up to special interests and entrenched bureaucracies -- someone who has fought against corruption and the failed policies of the past, someone who's stopped government from wasting taxpayers' money." McCain's crusade against earmarks -- federal spending sought by members of Congress to benefit specific projects -- has been a hallmark of his campaign. He has said earmarks are wasteful and are often inserted into bills with little oversight, sometimes by a single powerful lawmaker. Palin has also railed against earmarks, touting her opposition to a $223 million bridge in the state as a prime credential for the vice presidential nomination. "As governor, I've stood up to the old politics-as-usual, to the special interests, to the lobbyists, the big oil companies, and the good-ol'-boy network," she said Friday. As mayor of Wasilla, however, Palin oversaw the hiring of Robertson, Monagle & Eastaugh, an Anchorage-based law firm with close ties to Alaska's most senior Republicans: Rep. Don Young and Sen. Ted Stevens, who was indicted in July on charges of accepting illegal gifts. The Wasilla account was handled by the former chief of staff to Stevens, Steven W. Silver, who is a partner in the firm. Palin was elected mayor of Wasilla in 1996 on a campaign theme of "a time for change." According to a review of congressional spending by Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan watchdog group in Washington, Wasilla did not receive any federal earmarks in the first few years of Palin's tenure. Senate records show that Silver's firm began working for Palin in early 2000, just as federal money began flowing. In fiscal 2000, Wasilla received a $1 million earmark, tucked into a transportation appropriations bill, for a rail and bus project in the town. And in the winter of 2000, Palin appeared before congressional appropriations committees to seek earmarks, according to a report in the Anchorage Daily News.

OFF TO ALASKA
This weekend on my BLOG I said that Steve Doocy of Fox and Friends made a CLASSIC video clip that Jon Stewart had on his show last week. See 8/30/8 or 8/31/8 post.
Well now it seems that Cindy McCain has taken on Doocy's talking points. Watch this short video and see what I mean. * *SHE WAS FOR IT BEFORE SHE WAS AGAINST IT
On SARAH PALIN it's funny how the republicans like to change history. HELL they think it's even OK to LIE. ON THE POLAR BEAR ABOUT the closest most Americans will ever get to a polar bear are those cute, cuddly animated images that smiled at us while dancing around, pitching soft drinks on TV and movie screens this holiday season.
This is unfortunate, because polar bears are magnificent animals, not cartoon characters. They are worthy of our utmost efforts to protect them and their Arctic habitat. But adding polar bears to the nation's list of endangered species, as some are now proposing, should not be part of those efforts. SHE WAS FOR IT BEFORE SHE WAS AGAINST IT (THE BRIDGE TO NOWHERE) On the CBS Evening News, Bob Schieffer asserted that Gov. Sarah Palin is "someone, you know, who is against earmarks, who is against that bridge to nowhere." But Palin's administration has said it requested federal earmarks in 2008, and she reportedly initially supported the so-called "bridge to nowhere" project. *Click here to read more on Sara Palin and other things going on in Alaska. x
LET THEM EAT CAKE
Can you tell me what it is exactly that John McSAME (the apparent acting president of the United States) is doing in New Orleans, except getting in the way.
I saw this on the Internet:I know that if I lived in an area that was trying to prepare / evacuate in advance of a major national disaster, what I'd really want would be for a presidential candidate to swing by for a campaign appearance, distracting local political officials and drawing down resources of the local public safety agencies. After all, it'll look good on camera to be engaged with the problem!By the way the picture was taken just 3 years ago on the day that Katrina hit New Orleans. Just another LIE FROM THAT OLD, OLD MAVERICK MCSAME CLAIMING THAT HE WAS BASHING HIS GOOD BUDDY BUSH TO RESPOND TO NEEDS OF NEW ORLEANS. It's funny how as you get older your memory seems to get dim.
