Blast Off!: Progressivism is not dead! (But it's on life support ...)


Blast Off!: Progressivism is not dead! (But it's on life support ...):


"Perhaps you've heard of the Political Compass website, where you can
take a test that places you on a grid based on the degree to which you are
'left' or 'right' on the economic scale as well as how socially libertarian or
authoritarian you are."


Some interesting results.

This is where I stand

Here is where I stand

Take the test

My opinion from taking the test is that it is full of clearly slanted questions, poorly worded questioned and leading questions. It asks such things as if unemployment or inflation is a bigger problem, it isn't that simple.

Crooks and Liars » Gingrich sees immigrants as ‘more deadly’ than terrorists:

Crooks and Liars » Gingrich sees immigrants as ‘more deadly’ than terrorists:

"Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Tuesday he is “sickened” that President
Bush and Congress went on vacation “while young Americans in our cities are
massacred” by illegal immigrants. […] Gingrich said that the “war here at home”
against illegal immigrants is “even more deadly than the war in Iraq and
Afghanistan.” “The federal government’s incompetence, timidity and uncoordinated
efforts to identify and deport criminal illegal aliens have had devastating
consequences for innocent Americans,” Gingrich said, in a newsletter"

I think we can stop talking about Gingrich running for office, I think in this climate just talking about immigration is the fastest way to kill your chances of getting elected. One because the issue is so clear cut and there seems to be so little ground on the issue. That means that what ever statement you are making is offending either one side or the other - and often both. This statement is an example of one that is going to upset a lot of people.

8/13/07 - Coulter on Cuban refugees, Rove

Crooks and Liars » FOX News Caught Re-Writing Wikipedia History:

Crooks and Liars » FOX News Caught Re-Writing Wikipedia History:

"This is egregious even by FOX standards. Some diligent detective work by dKos diarist Democrashield has revealed that someone at FOX has been editing the Wikipedia pages of Brit Hume, Shepherd Smith, and Keith Olbermann (and most likely many others), removing substantially information provided by Media Matters. "

I don't know the information that is in question, and I don't know how accurate that information is. As an open statement then, I would say that the best way to solve this disagreement, would be to allow the information to stand - add your rebuttal of that information to the site and allow the reader to decide.

Crooks and Liars » Barnes (hearts) Rove:

Crooks and Liars » Barnes (hearts) Rove:

"Rove is the greatest political mind of his generation and probably of
any generation. He not only is a breathtakingly smart strategist but also a
clever tactician. He knows history, understands the moods of the public, and is
a visionary on matters of public policy. But he is not a magician."


Just because you don't like someone, doesn't mean you can't admit they are good at what they do. We are talking about a man who made Bush president, twice. That takes skill, it takes brains and it takes an understanding of the public mood. He wasn't a magician, and if he were he would have been a black magician, but he was a great mind.

The Wall of Separation » Blog Archive » Trouble In Texas: School Board Chairman Seeks Religion In Science Class:

The Wall of Separation » Blog Archive » Trouble In Texas: School Board Chairman Seeks Religion In Science Class:

"So, step one: lie about your motives; step two: change the definition of
science; step three: target the most impressionable among you. McLeroy’s
perspective is incredibly dangerous. His effort to replace science with theology
has implications not just for Texas, but for school children nationwide. Texas
is a major market for textbook publishers because it has so many children in its
public system. Therefore, the textbooks available to school districts around the
country tend to reflect Texas school officials’ choices."


At one point he talks about how science takes the supernatural out of the story, and relies totally on the natural. I think this is a strength of science, not a weakness. It teaches a means of understanding the world in a cause and effect way, and teaches the ability to test what might lead to a certain effect by testing different caused. The foundation of the scientific theory is the foundation of Western Civilization. I was watching CSI tonight (as always), and even in terms of crime it is testing to see how to get a result that matches the crime. I would further state, that while some scientists have taken god out of their world view, others have not. They understand there are things they can't explain and they understand that might be god.

It is like the movie The Village. Religious people would suggest to stray into the woods of knowledge, to attempt to know what is out there is evil. That we should just accept it as a sacred unknown, or accept truths that have been told to us, but not proven. Scientists would want us to explore that world, believing that we may be able to make our own world larger, understanding there will always be unknown out there.

Crooks and Liars » Laura Ingraham makes more sense than Harold Ford

Crooks and Liars » Laura Ingraham makes more sense than Harold Ford:

"Ingraham;….And, not to defend the Daily Kos, when you’re constantly targeting
the middle or the moderates as Harold called them…it’s pretty tough because the
middle is always shifting…it’s shifting to where the left or right is more
persuasive. It’s not like the moderates are an identifiable group—-identifiable
positions on a number of key issues. They kinda move to either where
conservatives or liberals guide them either successfully or not so…I think
targeting the middle is a very risky political strategy and I’ve got to say—at
least the Daily Kos people are honest with what they want."

She makes a solid point here, attempting to be in the middle means that you are always on shifting ground and your ideas do adapt to the ideas of others. I don't think this means that the middle is always a bad place to be, if there were no one in the middle, how would the extremes have discussions. To take a stand on the left, just to be on the left or right or the middle, is blind for its own sake. Issues need to be understood, and thought through, I may agree with the right on one issue and the left on another - while finding the middle ground best on a third.

Some of our hardest problems have no middle, and we need one.

Crooks and Liars » Would Giuliani Bomb Iran?:

Crooks and Liars » Would Giuliani Bomb Iran?:

"Norm Podhoretz thinks the United States ought to launch a preventive military strike on Iran. He’s also one of Rudy Giuliani’s official national security advisers. He also, apparently, thinks Rudy agrees with him about the need to launch a preventing military strike on Iran but “hasn’t asked him directly, because he doesn’t want to damage Giuliani’s candidacy with the inevitable controversy that an affirmative answer might arouse.”"

I think Giuliani would bomb Iran, and that is one more reason not to trust him as President.

Iranian Military Terrorists: US

Captain's Quarters: Iranian Military Terrorists: US

"That will mean taking the economic fight to the heart of the Iranian economy.
Although the US could have designated just the subsidiary Qods force as a
terrorist group, the decision to name the IRG gives the US a broad front. Many
of Iran's leading businessmen come from the IRG and maintain ties to it; Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad served in the IRG, as did many of the political class. By naming the
IRG as a terrorist group, anyone associated with it could have their assets
seized from American banks. Other banks that handle their assets could face
exclusion from American financial networks, which would mean most banks would
close their accounts forthwith."


While this may be a primarily economic attack on Iran and its military infrastructure, the government of Iran isn't going to read it as such. More importantly it isn't going to play it as such. Imagine for a moment that a country had declared that the US army were terrorists, I know how people get upset when it is even hinted at, how would the nation react. How do you think the nation of Iran is going to react to this? I doubt the gain we are going to get from this will be greater than the loss.

Giuliani: No Palestinian State Without Recognition Of Israel

Captain's Quarters: Giuliani: No Palestinian State Without Recognition Of Israel

"Rudy Giuliani took a hard turn to the right on foreign policy yesterday in an
essay published in Foreign Affairs magazine. As Eli Lake reports for the New
York Sun, Giuliani eschewed almost two decades of American efforts towards a
two-state solution and demanded Palestinian compliance with lawful governance
before proceeding any further on their national ambitions:"


While he is going to get a lot of press for this, and a lot of people will no doubt be calling it a bold move on his part, it seems like common since. You don't give statehood to a people who are bent on destroying another state. If Palestinians can't learn to accept the existence of Israel, there is no reason that Israel should accept the existence of their state. I know that sounds harsh, and it isn't that simple. This has been a long war, with crimes on both sides, the only way forward is peace and acceptance on all parts.

New Assault On Tora Bora

Captain's Quarters: New Assault On Tora Bora

"Hundreds of US and Afghan soldiers have returned to launch a new attack on the
last known hideout of the fugitive al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden. They have
launched an air and ground assault in the Tora Bora region, near the border with
Pakistan. .... A US military spokeswoman, Captain Vanessa Bowman, said the
assault was launched against targeted positions: 'The targets were carefully
chosen to pinpoint enemy positions and eliminate the likelihood of harming
innocent civilians.' 'This region has provided an ideal environment to conceal
enemy support bases and training sites, as well as plan and launch attacks aimed
at terrorizing innocent civilians, both inside and outside the region,' she
said"


At the end of the day we found Saddam in a spider hole, barely large enough for his body. What if the way that Bin Laden was able to slip through the net, was that he didn't. What if he retreated to the back of a cave, deep enough that he knew that troops wouldn't search. From the stories I have heard those caves go for miles and miles, and there is no way that we could have searched them all. The easiest way to hide, is to make no movements at all, he must have known an attack was coming. Go down into the caves that he and his people know well, hide and wait for the enemy to leave. In theory, even if one or two soldiers happened to stumble down the right passage - they could be dispatched without revealing anything.

Bushies to Label Iran Guards a “Terrorist Organization,” | Air America Radio

Bushies to Label Iran Guards a “Terrorist Organization,” Air America Radio:

"The United States is prepared to declare Iran’s armed forces a terrorist
organization. The Revolutionary Guard Corps is the largest branch of Iran’s
military and if the United States goes through with what it is prepared to do,
this would be the first time an armed force of a sovereign nation would be
labeled a terrorist group. "


I don't know that this is a good step, while the news shows are talking about war with Iran, it isn't the simple. I have written about this before, and I think it is clear. A war with Iran would increase the violence in Iraq, probably not only against Americans but Sunni's. They would turn to their fellow believers in Saudi Arabia for assistance. Iran could either directly attack Israel, or it could attack it through groups associated with it in Lebanon and the Palestinian territories - or it could do both. Afghanistan is already is a weak state, a supply of arms across the border from Iran could make the situation there worse. Would Iran work with its Sunni enemies in Afghanistan - yes, I think so. Pakistan could set fire just from the heat in the region, it is already ready to boil over. The Kurds which live in Iraq, Iran and Turkey could take the general stability of the region as a chance to create their own homeland, which would draw Turkey into conflict. It is just a bad idea, even when you think about the broader alliances of Russia and China, steps they might take. China needs oil to keep growing, might it strike a deal with Iran?

Is Fred not delcaring because he is attempting to bypass election laws? Could the networks be puting pressure on him not to declare so that they can continue to re-run his shows? Does he really want to be president, or is his wife the Republican Hilary.

Ok, so is he sharing the love with a sugary pop tart, or is he sharing the love with a sour tart of an actress. Maybe he is splitting his time between the two, everyone likes that sweet and sour sauce right? I think both the rumors are doubtful though.

Well another day in the drama of if she is going to say "no, no, no" to rehab, or yes I need help. Reports are that she is now in the US at a rehab center seeking help for her problem. I wonder why they always come to the US for rehab. Also I wonder why they give a hot girl like Lilly Allen a hard time when she comes in here, but not the bride of Frankenstein.

"LOS ANGELES, Calif. (August 14, 2007) – Days after Britney Spears’ former
assistant Alli Sims was served commando-style at a Hollywood party, a bodyguard
for the singer was handed deposition papers as well. Damon Shippen, who has
served as a bodyguard for Spears was given legal papers by Aaron Cohen’s IMS
Security, a company of Israeli-style security agents, last night."

This is starting to sound like it is going to be a real party. I bet the people at the court house can't wait for the day the circus lands in their lap with this one.

"LOS ANGELES, Calif. (August 14, 2007) – A woman involved in the Lindsay Lohan
car chase, that resulted in a second DUI arrest for the starlet last month,
filed a lawsuit against the actress earlier today. Tracie Rice, who claims to
have been a passenger in the car Lohan was allegedly chasing on the morning of
July 24, filed an assault and negligence lawsuit against Lohan in Los Angeles
Superior Court."


This is stupid, of course we all know that the things she has done were dangerous and unacceptable. However, this sounds like an attempt to make money from Lindsay, if this were any other person this case wouldn't be put through. This isn't post dramatic stress disorder, she was in the car while Lindsay was chasing her, if she is really that traumatised, she must never leave the house.

was served. Shannon Funk, the blonde woman who was by Spears’ side earlier this
summer, serving as her assistant, was given papers by Aaron Cohen’s IMS security
team in another stealth operation Tuesday evening. "


This is going to be the custody trial of the century. In a case like this, it is hard to know who is telling the truth, and what peoples honest motives are. I have my doubts that Kevin's motives are just the kids. Britney is in a bad place right now, but I think she loves her kids and her motives are that she wants to be with them. I think it would be wrong to take them away from their mother. Let Britney get some help, and keep the kids.

former Israeli agents. Aaron is certified by homeland security to train FBI and
SWAT teams in Israeli counter-terror techniques."


Kevin and his staff are really bringing in the heavy guns for this one. When you put this much money out for something, it is either something you love - or something you hope to get a lot of money from. Maybe in this case it is a little of both.

Anti-Christ To Be Published, Goldman Family Will Benefit

"The controversial O.J. book, "If I Did It," will be repackaged and
published, a New York literary agent announced today. In a statement, a rep for
the agent proclaimed, "The family and publisher have pledged to leave Simpson's
manuscript entirely intact, but they will also add key commentary.""


This book was sick when it was OJ and Judith Regan who were selling it. The fact that it is now the family of the victim that is selling it, doesn't make it any less sick in my book. It is good that they are going to get the money for the books sales, well at least better than OJ getting it. Selling a book to make money off the murder of a relative, sounds like America.

A Socialite's Life: Britney's Former Assistant Outs Her

"A topless Britney Spears got down and dirty in a hotel pool with her former
assistant Shannon Funk. The ladies cleared the hotel pool of other guests so
they could enjoy kissing and fondling each other. Britney's wild behaviour
followed her topless romping with video extra Matt Encinias in the LA hotel.
Britney stripped to just her knickers, hat and shades and partied with pals til
4am. But it was her blonde assistant Britney was really after and the pair ended
up in bed together after frolicking in the pool. "


I think if that chewing gum that was once sold on E-Bay could talk, it would run to the tabloids with a story about what it was like to be chewed by Britney. While I am not joining Team Britney here, it does seem like everyone is trying to get a piece of her. I have compared her to Michael Jackson in the past, and there are many ways in which they are the same. They both grew up in the spot light, they both changed the music world, and they were both hounded by people who wanted to use them, or take something from them. Watching what Britney is going through, one begins to understand how Michael ended up so reclusive. Of course, if she takes a fancy to kids - then we will know they are the same.

"X17 has spoken exclusively with a source we've witnessed to be very close
to Britney -- we grabbed him as he left Winston's Friday night with Brit and
Alli (he snuck out the back door, but X17 was there!). 'Jeff' as he called
himself (not Jeff Kwatinetz who was rumored to be Brit's new manager), has been
close to Britney and/or Britney's family since before all of her recent troubles
began. And here’s what he told us ...

-Britney does NOT do drugs!,”

-Britney never hated Kevin

-Everyday life for Britney with her kids consists of 23.9 hours/day focused
on the boys, "mom, mom, mom constantly,"

-She's a young girl, who's finally attempting to be totally independent and
that's just something that the people around her -- business people -- do not
want to see happen.

- Britney was FORCED to stay in rehab because her family, her manager
and officials at Promises were all threatening to take away her children unless
she completed the treatment program.

-After Britney shaved her head, she begged her mom and Kevin to test the
hair from the salon however no one went to claim it.

-Why would Kevin file a civil case if he were truly worried about his kids'
welfare

-Why didn't he fight for full custody of his kids with Shar Jackson if he
loves his kids so much?

-"Britney is the most generous person you could meet -- too generous"

-Get it straight people, Britney doesn't go out when her kids are home!!
Come on, she has shared custody there is half the week when she's not with her
kids!

-“Britney's like a little girl at times" and is "shy around guys. She's
young and single and would love to find the right man"


To read more of the interview click on the link. This is just the highlights that I pulled out of it. If this person is to be trusted, this does paint a picture of Britney that is different than we see in the press. What it doesn't answer is why she stripped to her underwear and went for a swim in the ocean. There is no spin on that, it happened and everyone saw it. I don't think that Britney is the crazy womyn people make her out to be, but I also don't think she is the saint this guy thinks she is.

Open Houses: Jurors Spend A Day At The Spector Mansion - Defamer

Open Houses: Jurors Spend A Day At The Spector Mansion - Defamer:

"Jurors in the Phil Spector trial are soon expected to hear testimony from Devra
Robitaille, the fifth witness who'll testify that Spector had held them at
gunpoint when they threatened to leave his Alhambra mansion--sort of like the
Playboy Mansion, but with fewer big parties, more acts of violence against
women, and about an equal amount of obscenely rich, eccentric, and horny old
proprietors wandering around. Earlier today, the jurors got a look at the crime
scene itself."


I was reading Dominick Dunne's column in Vanity Fair and in it he says that the gun was found by Lana's left foot. If she had shot herself, since she is right handed it should have been found by her right foot. Just another small detail in the story that in my opinion points to Phil being guilty. The jurors got a tour of what everyone is calling a castle, so they could see the crime scene themselves.
