So, Boo-Man thinks progressives really won last Tuesday, well here’s some food for thought.
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/11/08/opinion/main2162618.shtml
And as for Joe Lieberman and the nutroots;

Chew on that for a little while.
This belongs as a comment and not a diary. Put some work into it next time.
his analysis is laughable.
Webb and Tester are Senators. Ed Case and Harold Ford are not. Patrick Murphy and Joe Sestak won and Lois Murphy lost. Paul Hodes and Shea-Porter won and Duckworth lost. Zach Space won. Jerry McNerney won.
And Lamont’s campaign is what gave energy and confidence to the anti-war movement. It’s why Carl Levin is talking about withdrawal and not sending in more troops like Baker will advocate and McCain wants.
We won because we had the confidence to make distinctions. Tester said he didn’t want to weaken the patriot act, he wanted to repeal it.
That’s what Lamont did for us. Lamont won.
Joe Lieberman is just like the spots you see before your eyes after a bright flash. He’s still there and seems brighter than everything else, but he is just a mirage and a relic of a major explosion that actually destroyed him and what he stands for.
Lamont didn’t give you jack!!!! A one-issue knee-jerk candidate, and a bad one at that. Lamont is back duffing balls on his all-white country club while Lieberman is back in the Senate preparing to make your life miserable.
Lieberman is the man. Lamont was the idiot who wanted to be the man. Bye-bye Neddie!!!!
ECM didn’t make this a comment because it would have been troll-rated into oblivion. Like all of his other recent comments…
My thoughts exactly.
You linked to the Bullshit Moose? That automatically discredits you.
And Daily Kos discredits you.
That has to be one of the lamest comebacks ever. And not only because it makes absolutely no sense in this context.
Anyone who diaries for Daily Kos should have his room at Bellevue ready. Don’t forget the straightjacket!!!!
put down the Scotch, blogging while drunk can get you banned.
Please don’t make me laugh too hard at you.
and this only.
oddly in conflict with your attitude…
I’ll be calling traitor Joe’s office tomorrow and asking that his staff stop posting their bullshit here.
It would be fun for booman to look up his ip address and let us know where he is posting from, wouldn’t it?
maybe cooking…
Shrimp Diablo
Shrimp in a spicy tomato chile sauce and served over rice. The only important note about this or any shrimp recipe is to not overcook the shrimp or they will become rubbery.
I N G R E D I E N T S
2 jalapeno peppers, seeds removed
2 dried New Mexico or guajillo chiles, soaked for 30 min in warm water, drained, torn into small pieces
3 large tomatoes
1 cup fresh cilantro
5 cloves garlic, peeled
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
3 lbs. shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 cup white wine
salt and pepper to taste
fresh lime, sliced for garnish
I N S T R U C T I O N S
In a food processor combine jalapeno peppers, chile peppers, tomatoes, cilantro and garlic and blend until a thick but not completely smooth.
Heat olive oil in a skillet. Sauté onions until soft. Add the shrimp, sautéing until just pink. Add the tomato and chile mixture, white wine and salt and pepper. Simmer until hot and bubbly.
Serve over rice and garnish with fresh lime slices.
Enjoy
New England Pudding
Makes 1 9 x 13 pan
2 large cans of pineapple
4 apples, cored and cubed
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 ½ cups butter, melted
Drain pineapple.
Core and cube apples and soak in lemon juice.
Place pineapple, apple, walnuts, and brown sugar in the bottom of the 9 x 13 pan.
Make topping: Whip eggs, add sugar, and blend.
Add flour and warm melted butter, mix completely. Spread topping over center of pan (it spreads during baking). Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
Portion and serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Great Idea, but it’s time for BooMan to ban ecm. It’ll make ecm’s day and the rest of us have put up with enough of his mess.
Agree. The entertainment value is becoming stale.
Ahem! Left out of the DK Troll-house Cookbook!
Their Loss,Your Gain – in more ways that one:
Tennessee Belle Bowen’s Receipt, Pecan Pie:
1 pie crust, laid in a glass 9inch pie plate, with the edge fluted.
1 cup white Karo Syrup – no substitutes! Don’t touch that dark stuff!
1 cup white sugar
2 fresh eggs (or 3 if you like custardy filling)
1 stick butter (reduce to 2/3 stick if you use 3 eggs)
Vanilla. The real stuff. You figure out how much.
1 cup pecan halves, minimum. No nut dust, buy the good stuff. Do NOT use papershell pecans under any circumstances.
Beat eggs well. Add sugar & syrup. Melt butter – careful not to burn it, and add to mixture. Add vanilla. Spread the pecans over the bottom of the crust. Then, pour the batter over the pecans. Tap the pie plate gently against the counter until the pecans rise to the top.
Bake at 300 degrees, about 45-50 minutes, until the middle of the pie barely jiggles. Serve hot and runny with ice cream, or let pie sit for a while, to serve warm or cold in somewhat firmer state (if you can beat off your family).
If baking in a woodstove, bake 10 min at 425, then another 40 minutes or so at 300.
Trust me, folks. This pie is so good, one bite and you’ll forget about ecm & Lieberman.
Not to mention that we’ll need a shot of insulin after 3 bites… 🙂
Three bites? My A1C went up a full point just reading the recipe!
Damn! This stupid diary is worth it for the great recipes. Got to try the devilish shrimp.
but I doubt that the sunshine or light will penetrate the bullshit you’re spouting as usual. I’d offer a recipe as well if I knew any that used bullshit as the main ingredient.
I agree w/ejmw that anyone who would cite the bullshitmoose as a source is less than dubious …
Extract head from ass, wipe it off and carry on trolling.
On second thought, just retreat to your cave and STFU.
2 tbsp oil
2tbsp honey
3 1/3 cup flour ( 1 2/3 white, 1/3 grnd flax, 1 1/3 whole wheat)
2 tbsp dried milk
1 ½ tsp yeast (bread machine style)
1 ¼ tsp salt
1 ¼ cup hot water
Makes a 1 ½ lb loaf , need 3 hours cooking time.
The old timer who gave me this one says it’s never failed to work in a bread machine yet.
I’ll try it soon and let ya know.
Tell me if it works and if it does, I’ll give it a shot with 2 1/2 cups of flour and 1 cup of rolled oats. I love fresh baked honey oat bread.
I don’t know why. It reminds me of how my grandfather used to fight with me about different opinions. My grandfather used to say “chew on that for awhile” during these debates and it just cuts me up. I miss my grandpa a lot too sometimes. Is that you grandpa?
continues to bait the people here and y’all take the bait. If you ignore him he will take his ball and go home.
What really should happen is this troll be banned immediately.
You are so right.
I will say this: we all know that Lieberman is a legend in his own mind. He wants the party to bow down to him, etc., etc. But having the majority means that Lieberman’s status as Junior’s favorite Dem doesn’t really do that much for Junior anymore.
I think Lieberman is doing what Lieberman does best: blow hot air. Because if he does bolt–and good riddance to him if he does–he’s only screwing himself. And I think he knows it.
Even shorter eastcoastmoderate – “My superkoranic fellatio power will FINISH YOU ALL!”
I wish.
cuz of my nose surgery. Can’t understand what the big deal is, it isn’t my nose that wants a glass of wine though it has often enjoyed such a thing……but my mouth is really the one that would like it.
Drink up! You can’t let those goody two shoes doctors push you around keep you away from a good time. What’s the worst that could happen? Whatever it is, I’m sure a drink is worth it.
Yeah but you wouldn’t feel it for a while. 🙂
Haven’t seen you in a looooong time — sorry to hear you’ve been under the knife… 🙁
My latest med says “no booze” — gives me great incentive to lose the spud butt (and the rest of the fat too) so I can drink again (goal date is my 50th birthday but hopefully sooner like Election Day 2008)…
1 cup canned sweet cherries (reserve the liquid)
6 oz. box black cherry Jell-O® mix
1 12 ounce can of Coke (cold)
Optional (choose some or all):
1/2 – 1 cup chopped pecans
1 8-oz block cream cheese, cubed
1 small can pineapple pieces
Boil 1/2 cup of the liquid from the cherries. Stir in the Jell-O until it dissolves, then add in the Coke. Chill in a mold. When the mixture is about half set, fold in any optional ingredients you want to add (we usually do the pecans, but skip the pineapple and cream cheese). Continue chilling until set.
I’m doing this from memory so you’ll have to experiment to make sure you get it right before you take it to the big pot luck at the boss’ house. That just means you get to eat your mistakes!
Or good Cherry Coke salad, for that matter?
Good Rum can handle it…:{)
I want to be very clear: centrists, New Democrats, members of the DLC and those who refer to any of the above as progressive have their heads up their asses.
