It is unclear what the Romney ticket is going with, Mo'better Bush or Mo'better Obama, but certainly not No Drama Either or is it ether?  Somewhere the Romney/Ryan/RNC use of the term quarterback escapes me.  Even if it was just me, I think that Monday morning or anyday other day than game day is their style.

King County Executive

It is hard to have any wise cracks other than the one that got me flagged by my provider. May Day! It was maybe too much on the light and the dark side of the plumbing of politics with my source dump. But we do have a problem. Tuesday night's forum moderated by NPI's Andrew Villeneuve brought the four Democratic candidates together. It might be a reminder to all that participated who we are.
An off hand report? If my comments are minimal, it is hard being a cross between Obama and Dean,(pragmatic and fair and balanced: Eyaah!)but we have a big tent and more at the table.

escapement?

While thinking about the type of people who can take a watch apart and put it back together again, I thought... I've never done that.  But in thinking about the mechanics of it, I may have recalled
something in regards to the nature of pendulums, springs and gears.  The term "escapement" came up in regard to clocks on the History Channel. That aside I may not get around to taking a clock apart, let alone following up* on the particulars of what I will now put together, but it feels** similar.

Kudos to Judiciary Committee

Under oath with transcripts

That’s the formula for true accountability," said Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

On the other hand:

Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., the Senate panel’s former chairman, appealed for pragmatism.

“It is more important to get the information promptly than to have months or years of litigation," Specter said.

Email instructions from the "the administration" * :

"Who decided?" "The administration made the determination to seek the resignations (not any specific person at the White House or the Department of Justice)."

The equation for the administration's heckuva job = fuzzy math + fuzzy English.

The formula for
unaccountability and political cover = "the administration" = Quote/"Recipients of such 'appeals' must respond identically." [see AP fact file.]

OLD NEWS: Thanks to Eric Altermann "document dump" on U.S. Attorney scandal contains one on some important political profiling research: MUST READ

* these quotation marks may seem facitious/sarcastic, but for the last part of "the formula" see Fact File AP article.

Obama: most popular 100 days since Reagan

In context it is cherry picking, for since Eisenhower, Reagan and Obama are only average at 63% in the Gallup Poll. However the degree of difficulty as to the dives they face as to comparable handi-caps, of Lincoln and FDR are off track bets. The parimutuel may be political and polarized. (sarcastic cynicism) But now for a more detailed data dump for your own skew. And talk about fun with math.

Replacement Refs or Not...

If it were a debate* we would have stopped it. 
Not to pun on Xfinity, but while the Comcast links*** will expire.**,
it's the congress John!  Bring it on, Joe!  The President needs to hold a Sit Down.

Before I get down to the task of preserving<*> those links whether read or not, I will explain the Rogue John and Wax Leak of the asterisks.  Although the lesson learned from "Simon says"^^ might be to actually read links more thoroughly, the lesson from the Debate may be more complex but parallel of sorts.  By "rogue",<*> I mean that former Presidential Candidate McCain(first link) confesses an expectation for him lowering the expectations of Paul Ryan, while  disrespecting the Vice President and framing an expectation for gaffs.  Then in regard to the " ball of wax " that Palin leaks, it connects the "boys" to the other "race" speech.^^^  (There, that's the GPS-uncross-Rhodes.)

And a far as my Tan Gents(Dr. Trumps), being a Seahawk fan has nothing to do with my take on the moderator.  Well, who knows?  But Mr. Lerrer has been critcized for not moderating or having a good performance, but I think that given the style over substance versus substance with style, these are not legitimate debates.  And within the political system (such as it is) it was not his job to interfere with the players being themselves in order to let them make the proper contrast.  Again having only heard most of the debate on the radio, I thought that the President walked away with it, but that was under the condition that facts matter.  Neither he nor Lehrer could have done a better job in the case that they don't. 

BTW^: Speaking of "boys", we have heard cracks about the Harvard "professor" and I suspect he has had to deal with a few wise-guys or gulls[!]

Can you feel this working?

Or even follow this thinking?* Is George Lakoff practicing the same reinforcment and fine print? On the feeling front ? **

Does the market Lord over Republicans?
Does logic Lord over facts?
Is it really the slippery slope Lakoff sees?

The bold indicates the suggested read. Links are often footnotes or tangents(see [**] ), not primary sources that need a full read. I am commenting here on different results that reading this article may have on those from different parts of the political spectrum, and the impact of having read it on their perspective of their perspective.[*]
(You will have to read the Lakoff article, and then will you be prepared to answer the questions?) The focus on the metaphorical may have an underlying greater impact. The President is pounding on the pragmatics of values and that may be an over arching message.

King County Executive Race
Update.
Yesterday

MAY 5th, Race Forum
The race is now comprised of 4 Democrats and a "nominal independent".
Characterizations are dangerous
but so are closets.
If not amnesia.

Source Dump or Septic Tank:
SoundPolitics
Examiner
RedCounty
RD.net
SeattleTimes
SeattlePIblog
SeattleWeekly

As characterizations go, it may be fair and balance to list it so:
King County Chair Dow Constantine and former Chair and current Council Member Larry Philips are of Seattle, while State Rep and Microsoft manager Ross Hunter, along with former Republican Rep. now Democratic Senator Fred Jarrett are of the Eastside, with former newscaster and current non-profit executive Susan Hutchison is kind of out of the blue. Speaking of executives and managers, how many would love to be able to just hand out money or hold it back in the name of good?

Whistle Blowing in the Dark?

or the Neo-Plumbers plugging the leaks.

The Turd Blossom's Free Pass

Speaking of...
cover ups or is it dumps.Speaking of effluent or is it affluent, is the flow of information in the same nature? I recently made such a dump (email) and while some work in think tanks, others create septic tanks.

Well some of the sludge was dredged up in the last post.
