It was originally on a Fleetwood Mac tribute album in 1998, and was a bonus track on a re-release of the Cranberries' album To The Faithful Departed in 2002.; 9/30/24, 8:07 PM

Iman said...: That SNL “cold open” video posted yesterday got me thinking… the way Maya Rudolph as Kamala Harris pronounced Joe Biden’s name (jabiden)… could it have been a case of not pronouncing “Joe” left it open to mean either Joe Biden OR Jill Biden?; 9/30/24, 8:13 PM

Iman said...: I talked to Pete Rose a bit when at a gate at the Hollywood Burbank Airport one morning in the early 90s… seemed to be a pleasant fellow. I was sitting there talking with him when Pat Sajak walked by. Sajak had that staring straight ahead look with his peripheral visual radar on, lol.; 9/30/24, 8:21 PM

FullMoon said...: Speech aimed at Persians (Iran) at link. Netanyahu concluded by telling Iran not to “let a small group of fanatic theocrats crush your hopes and your dreams. You deserve better. Your children deserve better. The entire world deserves better. I know you don’t support the rapists and murderers of Hamas and Hezbollah, but your leaders do. You deserve more. The people of Iran should know — Israel stands with you. May we together know a future of prosperity and peace.”; 9/30/24, 8:27 PM
Kay said...: "i have the right of way" was a form of protective charm uttered by urban travellers in the early 21st century. They believed this phrase acted as a ward against danger and injury, invoking the divine spirit of 'Traffic Law', one of their primary deities.; 9/30/24, 8:29 PM
Gusty Winds said...: The best part of engaging Dr. Weasel on the Kamala foreign policy thread today, was in retort, he changed my pronoun to "she." In the open minded leftist world, that should be a compliment. But the weasel used it as an attempted insult, thus insulting all women.

The most frothing liberals, beholden to propaganda and the totalitarian state, are easily baited and will easily betray their core "beliefs."

Gusty Winds (she/her).; 9/30/24, 8:34 PM
They’re eating the cats — They’re eating the dogs said...: This is a remarkable clip. The leading Republican chairman for the country on spending and taxes cannot explain how Trump’s tax giveaways for the rich will be paid for or how his middle class tax increase through consumer tariffs will work. Not the plans… or even “the concepts”

Dr Weevil said...: I called you 'she' because I thought you were female. Are you not? I don't recall why I thought so, but I'll be glad to call you 'he' if that is the correct pronoun.

Now, sir, definitely not 'ma'am', you want to start calling me 'Dr Weevil'? That's my name.; 9/30/24, 8:47 PM

Inga said...: Dr Weevil is a Trump supporter and a conservative, just like you Windy. He certainly isn’t a liberal. Maybe after interacting with you dopes, he’ll rethink his support for Trump, but I doubt it.; 9/30/24, 9:09 PM

Would be nice if Kamala could take a break from raising millions to help Americans.; 9/30/24, 9:14 PM
Inga said...: Why did Trump lie and said that Governor Kemp couldn’t get ahold of President Biden? Kemp is on video saying he spoke with Biden the day before.

“The governor’s doing a very good job,” Trump said of Kemp. “He’s having a hard time getting the president on the phone. Federal government is not being responsive.”

“Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) expressed his appreciation for the role the federal government has played in responding to Hurricane Helene, contradicting comments from former President Trump, who claimed during a Monday visit to the state that Kemp had trouble reaching President Biden.
Kemp and White House officials confirmed Monday that Biden spoke to the governor on Sunday to offer support as the state sorts through the damage from Hurricane Helene.“

Inga said...: https://www.wbtv.com/2024/09/30/fema-bringing-truckloads-food-water-north-carolina-helenes-wake/

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - The federal government was bringing truckloads upon truckloads of supplies to people in North Carolina impacted by Hurricane Helene, officials reported Monday.

Members of the Federal Emergency Management Agency were providing 40 truckloads of water and 20 truckloads of food to North Carolina each day as of Monday, Sept. 30. FEMA is assisting with response efforts across the state, as many communities continue to grapple with devastation caused by Hurricane Helene.

FEMA said it was working with Buncombe County, where Asheville is located, on Monday to "help gain a complete picture of the ongoing response efforts and where gaps exist that can be filled with federal resources.”

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was working with local and state officials to set up generators where they’re most needed, FEMA said Monday. Officials were also working to restore Asheville’s main hospital to “100% functionality as soon as possible,” and to for critical supplies for survivors.

Getting in touch with people in affected communities has been difficult due to power outages and a loss of cellular service across western North Carolina. Flooding had also made several roads impassible. Hundreds of search-and-rescue personnel were on the ground in North Carolina as of Monday, FEMA said.

Satellite receivers have been provided by FEMA to help “stabilize communications” across the state, officials said.; 9/30/24, 9:22 PM

Weevil… I got a boll to pick with you.; 9/30/24, 9:30 PM
tastid212 said...: Question for the Althouse commentariat. I'm going to a Linda Greenhouse discussion of the election and will have the chance to ask her a question. What legal-adjacent subject should I ask about? Supreme Court, 1st Amendment, weaponization of federal/state/local gov't, filibuster, abortion...?; 9/30/24, 9:30 PM
Inga said...: https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/4908099-biden-north-carolina-visit/

“Separately, Biden reacted angrily to remarks from Trump, who criticized Biden’s response to the hurricane during a trip to Georgia on Monday and claimed that Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) had trouble reaching Biden. Kemp and Biden confirmed the two spoke on Sunday.
“He’s lying, and the governor told him he was lying. The governor told him he’s lying. I’ve spoken to the governor, spent time with him, and he told him he’s lying. I don’t know why he does it … that’s simply not true, and it’s irresponsible,” Biden said in response to Trump.”; 9/30/24, 9:35 PM
FullMoon said...: Apparently Trump mis-spoke about a phone call today.; 9/30/24, 9:45 PM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...: Post

@guypbenson
Just saw a Harris ad mocking Trump with footage of him missing a putt ⛳️ & ridiculing him for “refusing to debate a second time.”

I’d note that he *has* debated twice this cycle & she’s refused a debate he agreed to.

Setting that aside, interesting choice on the dig, considering the RECENT ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, in which Trump was targeted by one of her supporters at a golf course."; 9/30/24, 9:50 PM
Dixcus said...: 3 days later ... after the media woke up. Yes. FEMA is only now bringing ... wait ... this just in ... 40 truckloads of bottled water.

Guess the emergency is off, then pals. Everybody should move on.; 9/30/24, 9:52 PM
Dixcus said...: Where is the BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS for drowning AMERICANS that they've been SENDING TO UKRAINE?????? They send us bottled water. We can't revolt fast enough.; 9/30/24, 9:54 PM
Dr Weevil said...: Will Gusty Winds correct his 8:34 comment, admitting that I did not insult him, that I actually thought he was a woman, that thinking that was in no way an insult to all women, that he's pretty damned hypocritical openly insulting me while taking offense at my supposed insult, and that I am not in fact a lefty? I seldom agree with Inga, but she's quite right about that.; 9/30/24, 9:55 PM
Dixcus said...: Somebody (Inga probably) finally got Jill to drag Joe Biden off the Rehoboth Beach long enough to fake a photo opp, I see.; 9/30/24, 9:56 PM
Dr Weevil said...: Wait, we will soon be able to say "Dixcus is revolting!" and he (or she, as the case may be, though that should probably be 'Dixca') won't be able to deny it?; 9/30/24, 9:59 PM

Dixcus said...: When George Washington crossed the Delaware to kill his own government on Christmas Eve ... he didn't deny it. So why would I? When Paul Revere cried "The British Are Coming" he didn't deny it. Why would I? When Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence telling his government was through, he didn't deny it. And neither will I. I will pick up a weapon. And defeat my enemies. And never deny I did it.; 9/30/24, 10:15 PM
Mason G said...: Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris
Donald Trump was handed $400 million on a silver platter and then filed for bankruptcy six times.

Seamus (FreedomToons) @seamus_coughlin
You were handed 42 billion to expand broadband and didn't connect a single person to the internet.

I don't care if Trump lost his own money.

You lost mine.

Achilles said...: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are doing an absolutely pathetic job in response to this disaster.

Trump is doing more than they are as a private citizen.

James K said...: My mother-in-law died at 90 from being hit by a car as she was crossing the street (with the light). Apparently her last words were "I had the right of way!"
