Open Thread Thursday

So man, do I find myself pissed off that Rush Limbaugh had to be dropped from the group that's bidding to buy the St. Louis Rams. I'm upset mainly because it's an attack on capitalism from the usual gang of idiots from the left. Here's a guy with money to spend on a product and immediately he's jumped from all sides SOLELY because he's right-wing. If George Soros offered to buy an NFL team, you think the media would be making up quotes about Nazi involvement?

Ingrid Bergman was a classic beauty in the best tradition. My guess is she would not have cared whether Rush was part of a group of prospective buyers of the Rams

Hmmmm, Rush, as a minority partner in a group of investors, wants to buy the hapless Rams. Providing employment for scores of people no doubt. And keeping the tax base for the St Louis area intact and growing, if they actually can turn the team around.
So this is bad why? Because Rush accused "the press" of giving Donovan McNabb a pass on a crappy effort one year.
What it is, is demonstrative of what is going on right now. Hatred of excellence in execution, hatred of those who have stated their beliefs, and have been successful because of it.
It's not surprising, and I daresay expected.
More puppets mouthing the company line, and by "company" I mean the liberal agenda.

Therefore I call for the immediate Government takeover of the Saint Louis Rams, and we will have a public example of the fine job the Government does interfering in areas that they know nothing about. How long do you think it will take the Rams to become Super Bowl contenders? Or do you think that they will continue to scrape the bottom of the rankings? I know where my money would be bet.

It was leaked out. Rush had kept quiet about it, until asked directly.

It is obvious that someone from that group that Checketts group leaked it. Who did it is the question now on my mind.

You got me. What is interesting is that there is a whole group of people who hate Rush so much that they are willing to put themselves on record with libel and slander. Rush has a possibility of suing MSNBC, ESPN and others for real damages.

He could end up controlling a portion of MSM.

mmm, mmm, mmm…….That's the American way, untill it cuts into your TV time it won't pass muster…..mmm, mmm, mmm.

Obama: I Don't Deserve The Nobel Fleece Prize

I give a few reasons why using some of his own words and deeds.
I try to be humorous as usual.

That would be FANTASTIC! If I were Rush I'd do it on principal alone…Of course I'd like the extra moohlah also.

lol..I liked your vid Shuga..I also like your screen name here. I especially liked the cartoon about which one obama wont meet with, I guess we all know who scares obama.

His own co-investors dropped Rush, so it's his fellow rich dudes who lacked the stones to continue in the face of the media backlash. They could have brazened it out until the faux furor died down. I'm quite sure most of the NFL owners, rich dudes all, don't disagree with Rush on much. If there's anything more gorgeously capitalistic than the NFL I don't know what is. (Just don't make my city float any bonds to build new stadiums!) I don't think it would have mattered much that he bought a crappy team. And I think an NFL boycott won't work anymore than the attempted 'boycott' of Whole Foods after some people were angry the founder disagreed with health care reform. It'll last 10 minutes and accomplish nada. We need football just as we need organic produce and hormone-free milk! ;-D

I'm pretty sure Rush won't join in on an NFL boycott. He's not a petty guy.

As for my Ingrid Bergman top five films:

1) Casablanca (obviously)

2) Notorious (I believe John Nolte's favorite Hitchcock)

3) Murder on the Orient Express

4) Spellbound (Hitch again)

5) Gaslight (Sorry Bells of St. Mary's fans, just isn't room in the top five)

the Goldstein reference is a good one.
Goldstein's book was nothing more than a description of the party philosophies and it was supposed to be the ultimate evil from the ultimate villian

What a wonderful thing it would be if Rush & Co. bought NBC Universal. They won't allow him to pursue his passion & happiness, so he should counterpoise with vengeance and misery. It would be a milestone day when MSNBC turns into the 3 stooges channel. "Hey Moe… isn't that Kieth Olbermann cleaning the toilets? Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk." At least that's a programming concept I can embrace.

One more reason why I'm glad I'm a fan of baseball and the Angels.

I think the flood of libel judgments will serve nicely as a consolation prize for Mr. Limbaugh. I see no need to get involved in what is arguably a private dispute.

Ingrid Bergman had a unique 'look' to go with her talent. No actress has copied either successfully.
'Gasllight' and 'Notorious', two of my Bergman favorites.

I like the way he's handling it right now. Telling the truth. Going after the reputations of those who lied about him. And blaring it across the fruited plane, 3 hours a day!

huh?

i'm re-reading it now (i do about once every ouple of years)
he existed at one point but very well may have been "unpersoned"
he was basically a party founder who fell out of favor of Big Brother. In his case he was turned in to the scapegoat for every bad thing.
of course all the party founders were disfellowshipped.
Interestingly it is big brother who may never have existed and he is the central power.

I'm wondering if Rush didn't know full well from the get-go that there'd be controversy. All it does is increase his ratings, and while everyone's arguing over locking him out of the bidding, he's laughing it up all the way from EIB to the bank.

He should go after MSNBC specifically, just for the thrill of shutting all three of those primetime twits down–or at least making them modify their rhetoric. You guess which three–I don't want to ruin the pleasant day I'm having by saying their names.

I don't remember enough of many of Ingrid's movies to really rate them since It has been many years since I saw them, except for the incomparable Casablanca. I only know the ones that I could never forget – the movies that left a deep impression that time has not been able to erase: The Inn of the Sixth Happiness; The Bells of st Mary's. For all the others, I want to see them again. I loved the women of Ingrid Bergman.

true, and I hope someone finally exposes those cheap pimps for what they are, oppressors of the people the purport to help, instead they "help" themselves.

They have been exposed, countless times in the past, and they will countless times in the future, but it doesn't matter to the left.

It seems people on the right don't seem to quite grasp this point, and its understandable why, because it's totally illogical. People on the left don't care about things like that when it's other lefties doing it.

Remember how Obama campaigned on his being the next incarnation of Reagan? Tax cuts, moderation, fiscal conservatism, balanced budgets?

Do you think lefties who voted for him believed for a second he was telling the truth? Of course not. If they did, the far left would have abandoned him in Iowa.

They know they're being lied to, and they just don't care. That's why support for Polanski didn't surprise me in the least. Just like Edwards cheating his dying wife. Spitzer cheating on his wife. Barney Frank's boy friend running a male prostitution ring out of their town house.

They just don't care.

Oddly enough, George Soros is part of the group to buy the Rams. Checketts group!!!

Angela Lansbury was marvelous as well not to mention quite lovely. A dear relative would claim anytime her husband was mad at her he would give her 'the Gaslight treatment'…

Fortunately they were kidding. We think…

yeah i had one of those "educations" where i didn't have to read all the books the rest of you did. so i read them now.
public school, pssshhhtt

Putin’s bluffing, re Iranian nukes- he doesn’t want a nuclear ME any more than we do.
But, Vlad’s wisely working the Boy Wonder like a poker player. He knows the Israelis will bomb Iran back to the Stone Age… so the Kremilin is just milking all sides for all they can get before leaving Tehran to fend for themselves-

And he’ll be wringing Obama for plenty more concessions along the way… these KGB guys know a mark when they see one.

God Help Us until 2012…

Agreed, I certainly like it.

Props to the guys who invented the internet too, for making this all possible.

Olbermann wouldn't be cleaning toilets. He'd be packing his desk, tears streaming down his cheeks, cursing the inhumanity of capitalism, while trying to figure out how to set up his own blog, rather than just forward emails to the people he probably considers hack losers on the web team for NBC.

Had to think about that for a few seconds, Pinocchio's relationship to liberalism.

Then I remembered, just laugh. Good one!

And pretty much right on the nose (pun intended). I was one, I'm surrounded by them, I know how they think. It really doesn't matter to them. It's like they're all in a giant clique, they are the cool people, we're all the nerds and losers, and the cool people can do no wrong, and the uncool people can do no right.

It is really that simple. It's no more complicated understanding these people than remembering 5th grade play ground. The people on the left, never matured past that stage.

Ingrid is the most beautiful woman ever.
