I’m amazed and fascinated that Kos is punching as hard as he is. When Obama has lost him, he’s got almost no one left online cheering for him and his con game. But what the vast armies of low-information Brian Williams-watching, NPR-listening people know and believe, it’s still not enough to make a difference.

The world will miss his kind and brilliant mind.

At a hotel desk in SF ten years ago, I watched Eric Schmidt pull the “don’t you know who I am?!” schtick with “the help.” I knew then all I needed to know about Dr. Schmidt.

Would these same people deserve the same level of mockery had they been milling about in Tampa instead of Charlotte? I guess we will never know.

In case it was missed, here is another great take-down of Green’s faulty “debunking”: http://pastehtml.com/view/c91yw7wjy.html

Gov. Christie is the only national-level elected Republican who can say in all honesty that he is, in fact, the 99 percent.

I love spotting live Kenny Powers specimens in the wild. His memoir, “You’re Fucking Out, I’m Fucking In” is about the same.

Steve Jobs has always been a pivotal role in the Pacific. He is in the Pacific. He is an island that is right here.

I’d say they got a LOT of exercise because they got ripped off on theater parking:
a theater which required one to park in a 1000 car parking lot at the cost of $15 and a pedestrian bridge walk across I-95 of about 1/2 mile.
The theater is over 20 miles away from I-95. But those Hoveround batteries really go a long way these days….

Maybe the Marines are wearing Nike Air shoes and that counts?

Have you ever seen Haley Barbour and Boss Hogg together? I rest my case.
Barbour’s pay-to-play shop in DC was the scene tonight of a huge anti-union-busting protest, and then march to the White House. I made this sign.

Agreed! Tricking someone into speaking candidly, and then presenting that without deceptive editing, is fair game in my mind. And maybe the states involved are one-party consent, or the federal law applies, which is one-party consent. Now pretending to be someone you’re not, I don’t know the law there. But anyone in public service should have their masked ripped off, in exchange for holding the public trust as an elected official.
