TBTM Radio #23: 'The Midnight Oil Edition'
I recorded my end of the show starting at 2:30AM Friday night, hence this week's title.

Tonight, Blah3, tonight.

"Fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a bumpy night," Bette Davis in "All About Eve." You won me over with that line. Great intro: a classic line from a classy lady.
I didn't realize that you and Michael were on Joe Scarborough. What was that like? Is he as utterly vile as he appears or is that all just an act to get viewers from Fox?
The segments on Halliburton and Nader were especially good.
I liked your subdued style on this installment -- a symptom of the early morning hour? Of course my listening enjoyment was somewhat marred by the arrival of my wife who had to regale me with her nightly jeremiad about her coworkers and a litany of complaints on the evils of unionized workers. Did I mention that she's a pro-Bush Republican?
One technical issue: while the stream remained solid, I think the audio quality was a bit scratchy. Was that just me?
Thanks, that was a great hour of sanity.

TBTM radio once again! Damfacrats are sayin it's what's good.
One cool thing is that Don reminds everybody of those kind-of-recent unthinkable outrages that are easily eclipsed by the latest mind-exploding abomination.
Mike's "Henny Penny" comment was so right on. Total baby games with the Iraq contracts.

Damfacrats found a CNN transcript where a Shrubya/Iraq cheerleader, this guy Gaffney uses the same analogy-as a GOOD thing. Ha!
GAFFNEY: This reminds nothing so much as the old children's story about Henny Penny, the hen that was trying to bake bread and ask for help at every stage, you know, grinding the wheat and baking it and so on.
And when it came time to eat the bread everybody was willing to help and nobody had been willing to help up to that point. This is, in fact, I believe an orderly approach to a very important reconstruction effort. As Paul Wolfowitz makes clear ... it is essential that we have people on the ground there who are committed to its success.

Gaffney's little "security" club claims to be non-partisan but his bio and one google search tell the real tale. He's either "evil or stupid."
Anyway, thanks for the myriad of great work you guys are doin. Out of control! Back off Greens this is just fo' the big dogs ya feel us?!?
