Rest morning

Sort of; plans include a 4 mile racewalking workout then about 1000 yards of swimming.

Update: did the 4 miler (plus, do to construction) but my daughter slept in so no swim.

Fun: How Evil am I?

You Are 18% Evil

You are good. So good, that you make evil people squirm. Just remember, you may need to turn to the dark side to get what you want!

How Evil Are You?

Hate? Hmmmm, if one cherry picks a few individual posts from the Daily Kos, and not look the overwhelming majority of posts, well, any half-way intelligent person who is familiar with the internet gets the idea.

Oh yes, what O’Reilly said was FALSE.

So, many of you may have seen the erroneous report that JetBlue has canceled the YearlyKos sponsorship. Well, like nearly everything you see on the Faux News channel, that report is out and out false.

Here are the facts:

* pontificator’s diary :: ::
*

1. JetBlue confirmed that it will remain a sponsor of the YearlyKos Convention. As a sponsor, it donated 10 free roundtrip JetBlue tickets for speakers and staff to fly to and from the convention.

2. JetBlue has confirmed that its logo will remain on the YearlyKos frontpage as an in-kind sponsor.

JetBlue has acted as real heros here. They have put up with 1,000’s of vicious, hateful emails as a result of Faux News’s false reporting. And yet they are standing by us.

Please show JetBlue some love. The netroots needs corporate sponsors like them — please show them that sponsoring the netroots is worth it.

So, O’Reilly is a hate-mongering idiot, or a savy entertainer who aims toward the “i wanna hate someone” audicence.

From the July 18 edition of MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann:

OLBERMANN: But the winner, Bill-O. After the tidal wave of protest from across the political spectrum as to his comparison of the liberal website the Daily Kos to the Nazis, he’s still sticking with it. “Hate is hate. That website traffics in it, as do the Nazi websites. No difference.”

Bill-O doesn’t understand the difference between Nazis and Daily Kos. Well, we already knew he didn’t understand the difference between the Nazis and the American victims of Nazi war crimes at Malmédy in World War II, so this should not be surprising. His stupidity is effervescent. It glows. It fairly ungulates and vibrates. I’ll stop now; I’m getting Bill-O excited. Bill Orally, today’s Worst Person in the World.

Let’s see: I am a member of the Daily Kos. I haven’t burned any crosses. I haven’t tried to run anyone out of town, not even the pimple-faced nazi who made up flyers about me. I haven’t denied or attempted to deny anyone their civil rights or their right to live a peaceful life.

I haven’t murdered anyone (never mind millions), nor have I advocated doing so.

So, being for equality, health care, ending the Iraq war, ending no-bid contracts to big business and being against much of the Cheney-Bush agenda makes me a Nazi?

(the Nazis would be insulted to hear this…)

Just for the heck of it, here is that youtube video of me that was put up with the Nazis; see what Nazis think of people like me and the Daily Kos (double click on the video and read the title)
