Happy Valentine's Evening Open Thread

Happy Valentine's Day to all our readers. I hope you and your special someone have a very special evening planned. If you do, I hope you'll tell us about it.

If you don't, you can watch Bachelor Brad and the remaining six contestants vie for roses on the beautiful island of Anguilla. It will likely be crazy Michelle's final night. I've always wanted to go to Anguilla so I'm mostly looking forward to the island shots.

If romance isn't your thing, there's always Harry's Law.

Or, you can discuss the budget, or any other topic, your choice.

By the way, what song do you think (and by who) best captures the spirit of Valentine's Day?

    love song, and a personal fave, Venice Shoreline Chris and "Rock Steady"...sang/played this jam to win a fleeting heart or two.

    I don't want to change the world tonight
    just tell me if it feels right darling
    this moment can never repeat
    will you rock steady, steady with me

    I don't wanna have to say goodnight
    not before we see the sunlight darling
    tomorrow can never be seen

    is Bob Dylan's Wedding Song, from his 1974 album, Planet Waves. I can't find a video of him playing it live, so here are some of the words:

    You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live
    When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
    Dried the tears up from my dreams and pulled me from the hole
    Quenched my thirst and satisfied the burning in my soul

    The tune that is yours and mine to play upon this earth
    We'll play it out the best we know, whatever it is worth

    ...It's never been my duty to remake the world at large
    Nor is it my intention to sound a battle charge
    'Cause I love you more than all of that with a love that doesn't bend
    And if there is eternity I'd love you there again

    Oh, can't you see that you were born to stand by my side
    And I was born to be with you, you were born to be my bride
    You're the other half of what I am, you're the missing piece
    And I love you more than ever with that love that doesn't cease

    You turn the tide on me each day and teach my eyes to see
    Just bein' next to you is a natural thing for me
    And I could never let you go, no matter what goes on
    `Cause I love you more than ever now that the past is gone

    Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi, codenamed "Curveball" by German and American intelligence officials, now admits he made up tales of mobile biological weapons trucks and clandestine weapons factories in Iraq, information that was used by the Bush White House to press the case for war. He also says he'd do it again.

    "Maybe I was right, maybe I was not right," Janabi told The Guardian. "They gave me this chance. I had the chance to fabricate something to topple the regime. I and my sons are proud of that and we are proud that we were the reason to give Iraq the margin of democracy."

       

    In a series of meetings with the Guardian in Germany where he has been granted asylum, he said he had told a German official, who he identified as Dr Paul, about mobile bioweapons trucks throughout 2000. He said the BND had identified him as a Baghdad-trained chemical engineer and approached him shortly after 13 March of that year, looking for inside information about Saddam's Iraq.

        "I had a problem with the Saddam regime," he said. "I wanted to get rid of him and now I had this chance."

    The contrast between supporting a "good friend" to the US, who has helped us rendition and torture, and prevented democratic reforms, real elections, kept the country in a state of emergency for 30 years - and so on - and being opposed to a neighboring regime that pretty much came off the same assembly line, is pretty hard to reconcile.

    I always knew she was a hard-liner, much more hawkish, but the hypocrisy and the cherry-picking of who is and isn't an enemy based on what's in it for us - hard to respect.

    If there's anyone who still has any illusions about about any of the players in this game, they're probably happier than the rest of us, who are getting the high-def picture and are pretty much appalled at the "warts" that have been revealed.

    That's probably a garbled analogy, but "garbled" is pretty much how the whole thing makes me feel.

    Having said that, if there were an alternative that was as insightful, knowledgeable, experienced, hard-working and compassionate as she, but less hawkish, I could be swayed.

    given me pause, I have to consider that she is, in fact, NOT the president, she is the president's Secretary of State; while I would guess she has some latitude, it isn't her job to make policy, but to advise that president and make her case for whatever policies she believes are best - and then carry them out whether they were her choice or not.  Hillary is nothing if not a good and true soldier, who, having made a commitment to her position, will see that commitment through.

    On domestic issues, which, as far as I am concerned, are hugely important - more important than ever, in my opinion -  I do believe she would have been a better advocate for the ordinary person, because that has been her track record since her college days.  Yes, people will remind me of all the corporate donations she's received, but it's still hard to argue with her work on behalf of women and children - something she also continues around the world as SoS.

    Given the opportunity to vote today for Obama or Hillary for president, with full knowledge of the last two years, I would not hesitate to choose Hillary.

Instead she asked detailed intensive questions about what worked and why, what was valuable, what were the impediments, etc.  It changed some of how he approached his job thereafter.

    From Mother Jones:

    A law under consideration in South Dakota would expand the definition of "justifiable homicide" to include killings that are intended to prevent harm to a fetus--a move that could make it legal to kill doctors who perform abortions. The Republican-backed legislation, House Bill 1171, has passed out of committee on a nine-to-three party-line vote, and is expected to face a floor vote in the state's GOP-dominated House of Representatives soon.

    The bill, sponsored by state Rep. Phil Jensen, a committed foe of abortion rights, alters the state's legal definition of justifiable homicide by adding language stating that a homicide is permissible if committed by a person "while resisting an attempt to harm" that person's unborn child or the unborn child of that person's spouse, partner, parent, or child. If the bill passes, it could in theory allow a woman's father, mother, son, daughter, or husband to kill anyone who tried to provide that woman an abortion--even if she wanted one.

    However, since Mother Jones reported on this, the sponsors of the bill have modified it:

    They eliminated the ability for spouses or relatives of the pregnant woman to use a "justifiable homicide" defense; now only the pregnant woman can use it, and there are exceptions to that rule. So sunlight disinfected this bill pretty quickly.

    But a closer examination shows that this bill was basically targeted at one person. There are no providers in the state; Planned Parenthood flies in a doctor from outside the state once a week to Sioux Falls. He's basically fingered as a murderer implicitly with this bill, though they had to dial it back after pressure.

    This can be added to all the other restrictions on abortions in South Dakota: required counseling, a 24-hour wait period, an ask to view a sonogram, language that must be read to women discouraging them from getting the abortion. House Bill 1217 also includes even more restrictions. The goal is to deny access, but the inclusion of the "justifiable homicide" language simply seeks to intimidate doctors from putting their life on the line by coming to South Dakota.

    Why would any woman want to live in South Dakota, where it seems they are regarded as little more than property?

    Fox news and Glen Beck and there related radio shows are taking the country to new places.  the things they are pushing are not new.  but until now the John Birch Society did not have a major news network.  they had to spread their fear and lies with pamphlets.  it has implications for everything from reproductive rights to minority rights to religious freedom.  and I find it sort of terrifying.
    last night I saw video of a Frank Luntz focus group. fully half of them think Obama is a muslim.  that is Fox.
    whatever disagreements we may have regarding Obama I think I can assume you do not think he is a muslim.
    anyway, I think this is at least tangentially related to your comment.

    I am sure Fox is big in SD
