Prime Time Thread

Friday night open thread. Now in its new time slot. 8 p.m.-ish.

(Grape update: If you recall, my Suffolk Red grapevine finally appeared to be sprouting actual grapes. But the little baby grapes are now sprouting greenshoot flower buds. I hope the flowers will subsequently yield actual grapes. What a weird plant. Toying with my fragile ego.)

    Well he is typical of the Faux News Wing Nut…lolI am wondering if O’Reilly could be charged with accessory in Dr. Tiller’s assassination? Or maybe not accessory but incitement or something like that.

    You have to have blossoms before you get grapes (or any other type of fruit or veg).What you thought were “grapes” earlier were flower buds.Keep the faith dude!! You’ll be fighting the birds for grapes soon!!

    I think everyone got thrown off by the new starting time, Bob. Plus, it’s Friday night. Also, from the previous thread, hell has frozen over.Although I wonder what O’Reilly will do on Monday to twist his feeble attempt at an “apology” into a misunderstanding. I’m thinking doctored footage will be involved.

    Ashby, I have all fingers and toes crossed that people know that our current system of health care is worse than any Canada horror story, and that our voices will MATTER in this debate. (In local fear mongering news, Repubs are rumoring about our former (R) Mayor’s sexuality, which serves him right as he managed to shut down a popular drag show b/c it was adult entertainment. Fuck sake, a drag queen isn’t stripping, too much duct tape and ace bandages to hide.)

    More than 60% of Americans are in favor of single payer health care. I don’t know what polling outfit came up with that one.The only Americans that don’t want single payer health care are the health insurance corporations and their wholly owned and operated members of congress.Nearly everyone has either experienced directly or knows people that have experienced the dysfunction that is our health care system. The only people for whom it works properly are those with the assets to pay cash. Insurance companies are the sole source of the problems in the system.The problems go away when the insurance companies are removed from the health care system. IT’s the only proper answer. Obama is wrong to keep those greedy fucks in the picture.
