Isn’t he great!!! I wish we had 100 more like him. Let’s all make a contribution to his campaign. Maybe one of you more tec skilled than I can figure out out to post a cite.
No kidding Taylor is Mika ever an embarrassement to our gender! She is the poster girl for the modern version of the Court of Versailles.Her father must be so embarrassed. She and Maria Bartiromo could teach classses in narcism.What miserable examples of equal opportunity..I guess that also means equal opportunity to behave like an ass.I don’t know Bartiromo’s background but Mika is one of those elites who woke up on third base and thought she hit a triple.

His DC number is 202 225 2176. I just called and got the busy signal.

Thanks Lake Lady. I hope he raises a jillion dollars. It’s nice to see some gumption displayed on behalf of the American citizen.
I just checked and he’s raised $113,000.
“Apparently Republicans hold Democrats to a higher standard than they hold members of their own party,” Pelosi told reporters at her weekly press conference on Thursday. “There’s no reason for Mr. Grayson to apologize. If anyone should apologize, everyone should apologize.”

Go Nancy!I have my differences with Leader Pelosi but she has a hell of a lot more spine than most Dems. I just never feel like I know her game.

WASHINGTON – A federal judge ruled Thursday that the FBI must publicly reveal much of its interview with former Vice President Dick Cheney during the investigation into who leaked the identity of a CIA operative.
Very interesting.
looks like Crew had a lot to do with it………….http://www.citizensforethics.org/node/42591
CREEW is in all that stuff. It’s CREW that deserves a lot of credit for getting the dirt out.
OT But I ‘ve got to go and just saw this:
“NBC News and news services
updated 1 hour, 24 minutes ago
GENTHOD, Switzerland – The United States and five other world powers have agreed to a second round of talks with Iran over its disputed nuclear program by the end of October, a U.S. official said Thursday.
Also Thursday, a senior EU envoy said Iran has pledged to open its recently revealed uranium enrichment plant to U.N. inspectors, perhaps in the next few weeks.
The dual announcements came after the head of the U.S. delegation met Iran’s top atomic negotiator for face-to-face talks — a rare encounter as Washington attempts to persuade Tehran to freeze a program that could create nuclear weapons. “
Looks like engagement might pay off. If Obama has some success with Iran it could really bust a move with Israeli peace talks.

I think if he can get an important win anywhere it could really break things open for the Administration and the Democrats.
Now, for the Grayson piece with the big media folks with Wolf Blitzer. What an absolute embarrassment for msm. That was just pathetic.
Another OT but important:
“Barack Obama is sending Attorney General Eric Holder and Education Secretary Arne Duncan to Chicago to discuss the recent beating death of a 16-year-old boy. Latest developments from the Chicago Breaking News Center:

Now, for the Grayson piece with the big media folks with Wolf Blitzer. What an absolute embarrassment for msm. That was just pathetic.
They just didn’t know what to do with a politician who didn’t give a crap what they thought of him.
I think Grayson is right, to tell you the truth. And I don’t think he’s over the line, really, considering what has been coming out of the mouths of the other side all summer long. I admire his honesty – something rare in Washington. I am going to contribute to him. Send the message, folks.
Taylor,
It is beyond me that they could be so vapid. Wonder if the watch and find themselves wishing they hadn’t asked such inane questions.
What worries me is that even my husband said last night that the whole country and in particular the Republican leadership has gone crazy.
Hey lynette
I gave a little earlier today thAnks to Lake LAdy giving the link.
What he said pales in comparison to the hateful barrage of idiotic comments from the right.

Make that Clinton/Grayson 2012
heh-heh… secularh, you’ll just *never* give up!
Don’t look now, Harry Reid speaketh on public option:

Whoa! Taylor what brought that on?
Anybody here think Rick Perry os in deep doo-doo? I think his goose is cooked and you can say hi to Governor Kay Bailey Hutchinson.
What do you think of Demint going to Hondurus to cheer on the military takeover? John Kerry and the State Department blocked him but he went around them and is going via Mich McConnell and the Armed Services Committee. I think my Senator McCaskill is on that committee. I think I will call her office for a statement tomorrow.
He intends to tell them to resist despite what our official US Government policy is,can anyone imagine if the situation were reversed and Dem did such a thing?
djjl…your husband is right the Rethugs have gone plumb crazy!

Wouldn’t that be called treason? – at least by Sen Demint and his ilk.

He didn’t mean jus those mwho call themselves Republicans. He feels there are a lot of crazies who’ve never called themselves anything.
want to talk bold democrat? here is one we will never get again-fdr. on the burns natl parks series im watching fdr was sooo awesome on parks. so was ickes-yes dad of harold ickes. ickes was sec of interior. fdr put work thousands to plant 3 BILLION TREES. fdr took risks to preserve what he could. he sent around folks to scout out new areas and send in reports. fdr used these citizen reports on what next to save! every progressive shoud watch this episode.
the jackson hole battle fdr fought was really wild. fdr caimed it a natl monument. congress nulled him on this bc ranchers pushed their buds in dc. fdr died. the ranchers kept up the fight but in 1950 fdr won. rockefeller saved this part fo grand teton-he bought much of it to be preserved for our country.

Well, as I wrote in my comment above, “Reid speaketh,” but what he actually meant is something different. He won’t define the public option as real believers do, djjl. In fact, it’s about “competition,” not a real public option, as far as I can tell.
Off to rehearsel but just had to say, I called Grayson’s number and told them I sure as HELL wished he were MY rep and I could vote for him and the country would be a HELL of alot better off if more Dems had his balls and honesty, both in the House AND Senate. They were pretty happy but said they have been getting some pretty vitriolic hate calls from repugs. So CALL and let him know if you appriciated it!!!
Back from rehearsing and just went over to Democraticunderground.com. HIL-FARKIN-LARIUS!!!! They have several video clips of Grayson with tweety that are really great but the REAL corkers are the ones put up by teabaggers and repugnantklaners whinning about Grayson having a TownHall meeting and the teabaggers NOT being able to get in!!! BWAHAHAHA! SCREW THEM!!!
Clinton/Grayson 2012!!!
