“They said, ‘You know, this issue doesn’t seem to resignate with the people.’ And I said, you know something? Whether it resignates or not doesn’t matter to me, because I stand for doing what’s the right thing, and what the right thing is hearing the voices of people who work.”
-Dubya in Portland, Ore., Oct. 31, 2000
The fact that the Bush administration is criminal in nature doesn’t seem to resignate with the people either.
Perhaps some mojo will resignate with you all.
so if there are accidental ones thrown around because i think they look like 4s, let me know and i’ll correct them later.
Whoaaaa – mojo whoring at the top of the thread with n/t…watch the feed back loops!
lol
Best spot available near the top.
Please think of your friendly international colleagues who are sleeping while you are enjoying yourselves here.
I want my TU!
my own little personal step ladder.
to Sallycat. Still strategerizing.
a desperate mojo whore…
to the top. Must. Try. Again.
you gave BooMan a 3 for the best comment of the night.
I designate
this as a time to perpetuate
everyone’s mojo.
i feel the need
the need for speed–
i mean mojo
too bad more things don’t rhyme with mojo
and don’t troll rate me for awful poetry, please
I’m searchin’ for mojo
Like a ninja needin’ a dojo.
I was jonesin’ for some mojo,
Like greasy hands need Gojo,
Greasy hands from eatin’ hojo
Or greased lightnin’ ie: FloJo.
Note: Gojo is the tradename for a hand cleaner favored by mechanics, a hojo is the regional name for one of those huge seasoned potato wedges you find with the other fried foods in the deli hot case.
Shamelessly attach myself to the top of this thread in an attempt to get me some jetstreamed mojo from Masshol (if it’s not too late).
Good night all. May you all have sweet dreams of mojo.
the right thing is hearing the voices
That’s it – that’s what has been going on in the WH.
Breaking Headline
Dubya admits to hearing voices!
Whether it resignates or not doesn’t matter to me
Another Breaking Headline
Dumbya doesn’t give a shit what you think!
(Story is blank, contains editors note: Story pulled, he has never given a shit, and frankly, you already knew that)
Maybe George is thinkin’ about them resignated drivers he always was tryin’ to round up back in college days.
dammit, you stole my post! ha ..thats exactly the very first thing I thought of when I read that quote. That and wondering what he considers ‘work’ as what Rice, Cheney, Rummy and others do is ‘Dirty Work’ not work per se.
want to recommend my diary at dKos, there’s extra mojo in it for you 🙂
Is that legal?
Really Booman, I thought better of you.
😉
maybe not. Are you making a blogger’s arrest?
Can I do that? This is getting more fun by the minute.
😛
To the Booman Tribunal.
On my way to Kos …. what I’d like about now is MO’ JO. … holds out cup.
Forgive me for this … am tired. … but I think, if you change your Kos title to “Is Terry Shiavo Finally Waking Up?” it’ll rocket to the top!
P.S. I recommended. It is a very good diary, even if the subject makes my nose scrunch up.
Terry Shiavo?
I would give you an 11 for that one.
How do I fix?
in the land of Boo
what would I do?
(because I’m new)
I am too, no worries whatsoever 😉
What is this dkos of which you speak?
I know only of booman tribune and fox news. Oh, and Zorg, he who speaks truth through my fillings.
I’m told that a person can construct protective headwear, using tinfoil. When worn, it will shield your brain from most electromagnetic psychotronic mind control carriers .
Are you the keymaster?
I should have negotiated for “Trusted User” status before I hit the recommend button.
after this thread, you needn’t worry about TU status.
My kingdom (as it is) for a link!
you want us to flog your blog, eh?
Huh? Huh? Huh?
What else is there to say?
“Please sir, I want some more”
Me too! Me too! Mojo, mojo, please. . . . (imagine the wheedling tone – what’s the tag for wheedle?)
Besides, I need arm myself with mojo to go hear Pat Buchanan speak this evening.
Yeah, me too! Step out for a few, and I miss all the fun…
Guess I’ll just hand some out while I’m here!
No fair taking the mojo and going home!
Who d’ya think you are, Dubya?
Well sorta. I’m back for more and handing out more mojo to those that may need it.
Yup – we’re still here – so have another 4!
Isn’t a great thing to have a leader that so eloquently speaks? Clear, precise, never a doubt what he is saying? Good God, Impeach the Chimp!
select a resignated driver ’til Dub sobers up…
Scooby-Doo
I nominate Joseph Hazelton.
Who, after driving his ship drunk, was given a position as a ship piloting safety instructor. No joke.
And re: Bush – talk about a guy in need of resignating.
M-o-o Jo!
Daylight come and we want Mojo.

Hmm…gross incompetence.
Maybe Dubya should nominate him next!
What I couldn’t believe was that they did. He was training cadets – the future officers of our navy. And Exxon posted the largest profit of any corporation in the world that year. It just renders me speechless. Then, for an encore, there’s Bush. Puke!
I really wanted more mojo but went to Kos and cannot find booman diary. Was i too late? Do I still get a 4 for trying to recommend a nonexistant diary?
Rooby-Roo?
And their future highways, as our children is struggling to learn to fix the solution by putting food on their family, and especially Hispanically owned OB-GYN offices who practice their love with women all across this country and not go around killing at the whim of a hat.
thing was about? A sexual resignation in the White House?
Can’t get into that other diary on my work computer when it gets too big (if the Irregulars were here, they’d turn that statement into something dirty. I know Boosters are above that here at BooMan, right? Or maybe, not. :^>)
Cheers to Willow. Actress Alyson Hannigan celebrates her 31st birthday today. Happy birthday!
Jeers to the Orwellian moves by the Bush cult. A leading advocate for exotic animal trophy hunts is named to protect U.S. wildlife. WTF?
Jeers to ants. Global warming may trigger an [invasion of our tiny little former friends http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn7170%5D. Let’s hope they don’t strike pre-emptively.
heheheh, you said “big”… heheheheh </Beavis>
somebody had to do it! 🙂
Big? How big Carnacki and what will you do when you get in?
I like the idea of being a Booster! ribbitt
Booster — It’s definitely better than booger!
You’re messing up Sallycat’s pristine mojo.
Nah – he’s probably just checking his 3 key! He didn’t check his 1 key so I’m okay with it!
fine, forgiving woman, Sallycat. And I’ll end that note with a 4 for ya.
C, can you tell me more about this?
Jeers to the Orwellian moves by the Bush cult. A leading advocate for exotic animal trophy hunts is named to protect U.S. wildlife. WTF?
Dear god.

It was for my daughter who goes even more ballistic about these things than I. Btw, she just received lovely photos of the bags they donated to HSUS’s Genesis Awards (which will be televised on Animal Planet soon) … and Linda Blair is showing off one of their bags and some other pretty actress I don’t know.
I’ve always admired HSUS. One of the good big groups…. and do they ever watch their pennies. They have a tiny staff for the entire West Coast, my daughter learned as she donated all those bags for the awards.
I second the Willow (Alyson Hannigan) Cheers. Wish Josh would create a show around her character.
cheering Willow. Major crush I have on Alyson Hannigan. I even forgive her for being younger and cuter than me.
Alyson Hannigan. Steve Martin. Hank Azaria. Me. Now that would make for a fine, fine night.
the people who wildly applaud this nonsense looking back at themselves, years from now? Worse than looking at photos from the high school years.
At least there’s no big hair here!
Big heads we may have…<G>
Empty seats? I guess only some will have to look back in sorrow, because BushCo is having a heckuva time filling seats at on his scam tour. According to Carpetbagger yesterday,
And that’s with free tickets AND John McCain appearing as his opening act. Hee!
link to Empty Seat report
This reminds me of this post on Overspun, where he talks about the disturbing prevalence of [sic] notations in the things Mr. Bush says.
Watching Arnold and G-dub appear together on TV is surreal. An Austrian immigrant really shouldn’t speak English better than the American president.. It’s kinda sad.
“booooo” with “ooooooo” to better suggest an audience transfixed by awe, rather than hooting in derision.
sound of forehead pounding repeatedly on a computer desk…hmmm, didn’t help…
You were able to type all of that using your forehead?!?
That W resignates with the people very, very soon.
You know, like Nixon did.
their president…well… I am not on Crank.” – W
Bring on President Cheney!
Hmm, somehow I find it hard to hope for that.
The Q and A might go something like this:
Reporter: – Mr. President, given the results of your administration so far, do you honestly believe you have the skills to lead America and the free world?
Bush, in a flash of self-insight:
I’m feeling pretty resignated to the next four years of hell…
now I’ve misforgotten the real word.
Strategery
cause resignating is hard hard work don’t ya know. Which makes no sense rather like our fearful(falful) leader.
Free mojo? Ok.
Another embarrassment. Dumya should only speak thru an interpreter.
she’s not very busy these days and would love to lend our country a hand.
That little girl on “West Wing” last night was sharp as a button!
on his back…
He can’t quite grasp what the murmurers are saying, thru the static.
Other names for it are blow, snow, cr… oh wait, that’s something else.
was really wondering what a GW is doing attatched to it? Makes the ‘thingie’ look bad. Bad for business.
Nah, he shouldn’t speak at all; no interpreter could interpret the crap that comes out of his mouth.
Me make you BIG mojo BIG TIME if you send me humorous material for tomorrow’s sequel to the Farting Fish diary …
susanhuatearthlinkdotnet
This is way too much fun, but I have to get back to work. If you posted after me and didn’t get mojo from old pacifica, just know you have it from me in spirit. 🙂
Mojo thread? Are we jump starting things here, or what?
Works for me.
Check out the latest update on my Kyrgyz (boy that’s hard to remember how to spell) story below … imagine a proper BBC English accent as you read it.
but how the hell do you say it? In my head all day it’s been “Kurge itch”
I’ve heard two ways on BBC:
Cur–jjjjjjjjus-tan or Cur-gus (like gun) -stan
Why does it always seem like you’re the most tired the day before a day off? Is it your body’s way of saying, ‘Thank GOD we’re not working tomorrow’?
It’s a beautiful day today. I wish I was out there. Although I wouldn’t be doing anything, because, well, I’m tired. 😉
we had 20 new users yesterday and only 4 so far today. Is there an ice-storm or something? Tell your friends the Frog Pond is open 🙂
Do frogs bite or tickle? My life is already hard enough with my foster cat licking my hair all day long and my own cat Bear getting into my jar of Vaseline (he’s addicted).
Lots of spring break time off going on
Also tomorrow could be either really big or really slow since some places (like mine) close for Good Friday. Me – I’m leaving town for a sunnier place for 3 days.
But, yesterday was Wednesday???
I’m already in here so I’m gonna talk some more. 😉
Does anyone have anything planned for Easter this weekend? Do you celebrate the holiday, or not? Big feast/easter egg hunt/family visits coming up for the weekend?
I have nightmarish memories of stiff uncomfortable itchy dresses and white gloves and long boring church services and stupid boring dumb egg hunts and crappy chocolate Easter bunnies. I hate all those holidays. (Not exactly the response you wished :):):))
the easter bonnets! Especially the ones with the thin elastic that went under your chin and choked you if your hat caught on something, while you were running around and not being a “little lady”. Oh! and the little white shoes that no matter how careful you were, would still wind up with black scuffs on them.
(I hate all those holidays too, lol)
Maybe that’s why we don’t really do anything for Easter. I just figured I’d ask and see if anyone else did. LOL! 😉
When I was four years old my mother made me a new robin’s egg blue coat and matching hat with a strap under the chin just in time for Easter. As we entered the church pew, a guy in front of us turned around and said “Who’s the little football player in the helmet?” Tragic impact on a four year old girl’s psyche. Nope – never did wear that hat again.
But I sure did love my shiny yellow shoes!
My mother insisted for several years to have my sister and I in the same little lady’s dresses or suits, like twins? She was three years older than I! Oh how we hated that and those oh too tight little white shoes. Remember when it was totally uncool to wera white before Easter too.
Me, I am taking my son and his family to the airport so they can go to Cabo with friends for a week! I am so jealous.
At least we didn’t carry the shame of being the older sister in the matching outfit.
Going to Southern CA for some sunshine 🙂
I like celebrating the holiday only as a spring thing being Pagan and all that cool stuff.
Things to celebrate like colorful eggs, flowers, new clothes, fertility rites, and the cycle of life!
Blessed Be, SallyCat.
Blessed be, sjct, and to this new frog pond we have joined.
Sally, sorry to break it to you but it is raining in Socal right now and predicted to continue until Sunday.
sorry gal!
Would the NWS lie to me? Oh no – she whimpers off into the corner….
Oh well part of the trip is shopping in Santa Barbara. New cool clothes and good wine in the evening…it’s hard work but I think I can manage it.
Well maybe Santa Barbara will be nice weather for you. I am way south in Del Mar(San Diego county)Have a great holiday and remember…buy blue hahaha.
But will have to nurse the health, recovering from that nasty flu. Well, there’s always next season.
Saturday we start driving up to Virginia because ma’hubby has a job interview on Monday. The good part is I get to see my new grandson who was born last week on my birthday!
The job interview is good, too, because it’s a position he really wants… I hope he gets it; it’s a high security job so I won’t have to pretend to listen to his geek-talk because he won’t be able to talk about it. Also, since he is scheduled to be laid off the first week in May, it would really steady my nerves if he got another job lined up.
Our enemies are innovative and resourceful – and so are we, they never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people – and neither do we.
mojo that !
i, however am not innovative and resourceful, and neither am i. i never stop finding ways to mess up postings. and so do i.
“Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?”

Thank you all for all this positive energy.
I guess this is this where we get our Mojo risin?
Meanwhile
A diner at a Wendy’s fast food restaurant in San Jose, California, found a human finger in a bowl of chili prepared by the chain, local officials said on Wednesday.
Yuck!
Ew?
Talk about giving someone the finger…
What a blurp!
But isn’t this the general problem; the (real) issues have resigned from the administration – and lo and behold – they have all resigned in the RWCM as well.
Ha!
I resignate. Mojo all around!
has given me mouse-induced carpal tunnel syndrome.
After this we’ll all be TUs.
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
Or free mojo! I’d prefer the latter, if that’s okay.
Dude, you like actually posted a pic to get your mojo. You must be an overachiever.
I want my mojo to have a snazzy red uniform and an almost fanatical devotion to the frog.
Good PR.
And when you have people like this sending hysterical letters to Keith Olbermann with a Bush-like butchering of the language:
“Subject: Misaccurate Reporting.”
You have to wonder if 51% aren’t the part of a misaccurate use of words cult group. Every time he throws out one of these speechifications, they hear the keywords and all upper brain functions cease. Might explain alot.
How cool is that? The Firefox extension for the other site works over here too!
Well I want some too, some welcome relief for today, I say.
Cheers to you all!
Is there any left? I’ll settle for a cookie and be on my way…
free mojo?
or perhaps it’s good mojo at low prices? or is just low-priced mojo?
maybe reading that bushquote is what’s got me confused … quick, somebody call Mark Crispin Miller …
of the thread….Will anyone notice me and fill up my cup? Let my cup runneth over with love.
us latecomers gotta look out for eachother down here… these are the ramifications of trickle down economic mojo.
the smoke and mirrors of trickle-down mojo. By finding strength in each other, we will form a net with roots that run deep…
(gawd this is cheesy, I’m just saying anything that comes to mind… get it? net roots?)
is a tricky subject… infinite supply, questionable demand, and difficult to quantify transaction costs. There’s certainly a prisoners’ dilemma involved, and more than a little principal agent problem.
personally, I am a supply-side mojomatrician, but I am open to alternative view points, especially those that use colorful pie charts and graphs.
mojo wants to be free!
“It’s clearly a budget. It’s got a lot of numbers in it.”
I’ve got lots of genomics data files with numbers in them–they’d probably make more sense than W’s budget, too! Nominate me for budget director!
with a 4!
you got 2 4’s
🙂 🙂
voting early and often, froggy!
Important to remember that liars don’t figure and figures don’t lie.
a very profound statement worthy of a 4. Consdier. (nice French sounding ring to it)
what we need is further mojo cuts for the wealthy. These cuts will free up mojo for the owners of mojo to invest in creating mojo opportunities for those of us to work hard and earn our daily mojo. Trickle down mojo means more mojo for all of us.
Whew. Republimojonomics is “hard work”
are all now armed with TU status and ready to kill trolls. They will eventually show up…I’m sure of it.
so I’ll have to use excess snark and my trusty pea-shooter. <ping>
And big thanks for writing out that piece on what it means to have TU status, for the site and as individuals. Mostly I’ve just been rating comments here (and on kos), when I remembered, because it seemed The Thing To Do. Now I know why! (I’m slow sometimes, but I do eventually catch on to things ;).
Apparently mo mojo is needed. Would’ve thought 30-plus was enough, but apparently not.
Where have I been all day? I hate being late to the party.
Hey now! If we’re late, we get threes from the host?
Or only if you’re CFR?
You know, first rating by the proprietor and all.
But you are a true gentle(wo)man (?) for coming to my defense.
And if it makes ya feel any better, I accidentally hazed Booman. Guess it must have been karma.
give Susan some love for writing up that wonderful piece on Kyrgyzistan. Big revolution there, the President has fled. It may be far away, but it is important.
I just noticed that you are registered user number 4. How did 3 users get in ahead of you?
see FAQ
I don’t get it — how can 1 and 2 be used up? Is it a default in the system that the first user is number 3?
I need to stop overthinking stuff (and I need to read the FAQ more carefully — I swear I did read it once already!)
i know that 1 is saved for someone named generic ‘admin’. i assume 2 is similar. and i think 3 was taken by booman’s other.
I’ll have some, thanks.
wow! Eight mojos already.
just like that!
what do i do with them?
Post a few more comments and have another 4!
mojo can be collected, saved and traded with your friends. It will also depreciate in value once you take it out of it’s cellophane wrapper. Unlike baseball cards however, mojo will not easily fit into the spokes of your bicycle.
hope that explains it.
diddle-dee-dee-dee
here they are all standing in a row
. . .
big ones, small ones, some as big as your head!
Voices in bush’s head….’so let’s see now, some people are saying I’m dumb heh heh heh, well I’ll show em…I’ll just use that Word for the Day Calendar thats on Laura’s desk heh heh heh and that’ll show em..lets see what was the word today…designate, resinate…oh well I’ll just wow em with some fancy-pantcy word and that’ll blow em away, heh heh heh.(shoulder’s moving up/down)
Memo: Voices in head speak better english.
so ok see, I was gone for a day and come back to find all this mojo going and then my computer decides it wants to be sick too and keeps going off on me so I can’t give out any mojo…After trying to come back to posting about 15 times now I’m screaming bloody hell at the computer and will say screw it see..and hope that you all will still ‘like me really really like me anyway’…
no kidding the computer(or me) is acting up and I’ll come back later and try again.
Ho do you know when you have enough mojo?
huh.
I must need mo mojo since I said ho instead of how.
It’s already Good Friday over here in Australia…
We’re enjoying beautiful autumn (fall to you Americans!) weather in Canberra at the moment, with clear skies and temperatures around 20 to 23 degrees Celcius most days. My partner and I took our two daughters to the zoo this morning – we liked the spider monkey who ‘talked’ through the glass to the girls.
Hope everyone has a safe and peaceful Easter. In Australia it is unfortunately a time of year when many people take advantage of a 4-day weekend by driving very long distances to visit friends and relatives. We have a very high rate of road casualties at Easter time as a result.
Hope that I didn’t miss anyone.
to flog a fantastic diary about exactly how far the right believes in the “sanctity of marriage”.

to spread the mojo until AOL craps out on me and I can’t see the rating boxes anymore.
I’ve done my mojo duty, helping scoop up the latecomers… some of whom are very prolific.
all done!
how many more a these whorin posts do i gotta make to be a TU????
TU status by now, I’m really sorry, cuz I’ve done my part froggy.
I have it, finally. Thanks!
33 fours and still a UU. What’s a guy gotta do? Guess I better go pick more bananas 🙂
I’m happy being untrusted. It adds to my mystique.
Yeah. Let’s sit in the back row and make fart noises.
have you found that usually leads to increased popularity?
But who cares. We’ll have fun.
will that get us 4’s? whatever… I’m in.

I don’t think the teacher heard you.
