CBS AM 1090 Seattle: Get it while you can.

CBS drops talk for sports.
[CBS's AM1090 Converting to Sports Talk]**



This very disappointing** news came to me via the Norman Goldman Show.
Others who will need relocation:
* Randi Rhodes(6-9pm)  
Mike Malloy(9pm-12am)
Stephanie Miller(6-9am)
Thom Hartmann(9am-12pm) KBCS(91.3)FM
Ed Schultz(12-3pm)

*(presented in order from time of this news)
(Norman is 3-6pm)
**[12-20-12(dual use asterisk/edit)sadness, panic, (add)embarrassment to have missed it. But nail' d, This.]

The Real B. S. of the F. C.

Balanced Solutions(Bernie Sanders) of the Fiscal Crypt(or FulCrum):

Anyone who believes that we have a spending problem not a revenue problem is unqualified to make decisions that will help the economy.  That is my summary, not that he* might not agree. 
Spending as a percent of GDP is the lowest in 60 years and the tax rates are the lowest in living memory.**


** Bernie Sanders (12-7-12) Need to update.
**I forget how many years that is.
(i.e. bu dump ump = Thom Hartmann, Norman Goldman***, and Randi Rhodes.)
*** Ctrl F "sound" (no dump but wedge between Thom and Randi on AM1090.)

[Meanwhile the real c. c.  Boehner blames the President for congresses own fiscal cliff march. Bush Tax cuts had expiration date.  The Republican congress refused to extend middle class tax cuts, and led country to credit downgrade and budget sequester deal over raising debt limit.  The President said he would not play those games.  The House is not likely to pass a deal that will pass the Senate and Presidential veto.]

Clear Eyes,

Full Hearts, Can't Use* ?

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.

Re:R,R,R A - R(not exactly) (j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r )

Not to Dump on Norman Goldman(nor Republicans), he is describing RepubliCONS as smart and fighting like cats and dogs over congress, while compromise is only for the president as candidate.  He makes further cracks about the difficulties of Bozo John Boehner as House Speaker in hurding*** them. (my paraphrasing & rhetorical metamorphing.)

*** circular firing rhetorical metaphors(cats and dogs)
(Obama has a better record given his opposition, Romney had to cooperated with a 78% Democratic legislature which has the power.***) Yeah that asterisk is redundant... who needs Republicans when ...  democracy is all over the map?)

[But something is fishy.]

* Not in particular order**.

** But emphasis on Norman Goldman's plea: "Am I all alone?"
There are one or two & a half others.  Which makes "Three and a Half-Pundits"!

This was noted before he put his exclamation point on it(clip not available), in regard to a reference to the Jon Stewart and Bill O'Reilly Debate and the "fog of capitalism" (my paraphrase), not to mention AP-Paul-ING-Susan and End of Interview.(Fee, fi(dough), foe, King) 

And just to file Hartmann and Rhodes under Heed and Run,(another 3&1/2 including me) the latter wonderfully read former Republican Senator Pressler's endorsement of President Obama for a second term.

[Endorsing spit-takes... or convenient cup.***]
***or fish bowl? C-Not.  Bush Leagues under the C.

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[!]

*if the link were fact checked...ditto.
(McCain goes rogue.)(Palin leaks ball of wax .)
** not that I have read them yet or the recommend them.
***The point of this lede and the heading...

^ apologies to literary geeks for my style over elements.(But that was Core Knell.) 
^^ added in edit mode
^^^ to be expanded later(but see lede and stupid...I mean congress and John, Joe & Ryan. i.e. the context of the politics of "relief' legislation.)

A Funny Thing Happened...

On the Way to the Republic.

This thread was triggered by something Mike Papantonio said, sitting in for Ed Schultz on the Ed Schultz(radio) Show. The trigger is now lost, but it may have been the follow-up to the Class War or as some say, Culture War.

Randi Rhodes is not the funny thing. But I hope to find the serious thing she read on tonights show. But it might better play out on The Last Word with Sam Stein about triggers. [Guy Faux?]
[Allow me to recap: week before last, the president held his joint session on the American Jobs Act, followed last week by his method of payment, followed this week by his long term plans. To sum it up, basically he said, there are 14 months left before the election, let's get something done. The Republicans basically said no way. So instead of bring it on, IT IS ON! BTW: I missed this, but that is for the afore mentioned editing(which I edited).]

Bleep 'n Compromise (Dept Ceiling) Review**

Not to be prophetic, but "I told you so."

In particular in The Jig is Up? and Bleep 'n Compromise,
but more importantly under Respected Sources.

IMHO: Randi Rhodes and Lawrence O'Donnell are radio and TV's number one(respectively) explainers* of the Obama Administration. Here are two Debt Ceiling recaps from Randi Rhodes which are nothing compared to hearing her.(AM 1090 Forum )

*respectfully
** which is not the same as bleepin'

Making New Rounds

And Rounding A Corner?

Day before yesteray I heard* that Tom Tommorrow was moving yesterday to a new site. And I missed this yesterday but maybe tomorrow, and the day before** I just got here and had linked to where Tomorrow left. For now I will just save this in draft. And somewhere a line was crossed in other threads. And I don't know why I woke up with Numbscull and Bones in my head.

* remembering it was April Fools, Nicole Sandler was standing in for Randi Rhodes and had a troop of comics in.

Republican Memorial Healthcare Bill

Rush Limbaugh predicts there will be a Ted Kennedy Memorial Healthcare Bill.
But maybe the reason Republicans are fighting so hard to prevent health reform is that it will be the Republican Memorial Healthcare Bill.

LABELS

I'm Sorry?

Did I get that right? OK, I will skip the wise cracks and just link to other references to what touched me off, and one weird coincidence. Also. WWWWWH?

And yesterday, Ed Schultz had a caller that claimed that the auto industry should have known about the coming financial crisis, which Ed met with skepticism or faith in our fellows, so to speak. But really they should have known given their interconnectedness, and that is probably the problem.(Thanks Thom Hartmann) And the connectedness to the media. So I hit two bailins on the head. Randi Rhodes helped with the Larry King link(weird). Lou Dobbs helped with the Bush link(references). Not to mention what* matters.
