The BBC -Sheesh

TOR-TOR-TOR Grrrrrrrrrrr

Spent the past hour or so installing and configuring the  TOR proxy recommended by some of you for watching the BBC.  I suggest that anyone doing the same refer to Using BBC iPlayer, Spotify or Hulu internationally, without it I never would have gotten this far.  Anyway, I got it installed, hied my way to BBC2,  and this is what I got. AWK!  Will someone (who has watched Top Gear on the BBC using TOR) send me a screen cap of their settings?  Thanks.

Obama's Snack Time

Campaign Snack Time

Obama makes an Obama

When Obama strays from the protective rails of his teleprompter.

“ He gives a good speech, but he’s loose with the facts. He called Abraham Lincoln the “founder” of the Republican Party. Nope. Lincoln was not the founder of the party; he wasn’t even the first Republican nominee (John Fremont was, in 1856). Lincoln was, of course, the first Republican to be elected president. [TIME Magazine/ Jay Carney, referring to Mike Hukabee's gaffe in 2008]  ” Ok, you've probably heard that Obama gaffed in his joint session campaign speech - citing Lincoln as the founder of the Republican party. One would think he knew better, given that Huckabee did the same thing in the last Presidential election cycle, and got called on it. By then Time blogger Jay Carney: http://justoneminute.typepad.com/main/2011/09/saturday-morning.html Justin Credible

McConnell and Double Dealing Republicans ...

DEALING WITH DOUBLE DEALERS

“ Double Dealers Dealt With The complicated procedure, designed by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.), would allow an increase of the borrowing limit while allowing most Republicans to vote against such an increase. ” I'm still stewing over this.  It's one thing to know—  as anyone with an IQ warmer than melted ice does—   that democrats are liars, commies and pedophiles.  But when the sheriff  turns out to be part of the gang,  it's just too much. Since I'm law abiding,  I'll have to hope the citizenry, now alerted to the fact that they've been playing in a crooked game for several years, don't rise as one and hang everyone in government and start new— with a provisional Barn Army government!  Today.  I'm not making this up.
