* On This Week with George Stephanopoulos, two big debates: McCain v. Biden. Mehlman v. Shrum.

* i loved the thing about jonk drinking beer watchin the ball game - where he 'invited the media' and the pix all included all the other cameras. if it was 43, it would have simply been him drinkin beer watchin the game. or praps drinking babies blood. which is nonalcoholic.

* tom daschle is in trouble. if u know anyone in siouxfalls, get on the dog&bone.

* "This election is going to be a mess. Just get used to the idea. We've all done our best to categorize the mess. Attempts to suppress registration. Late mailing of absentee ballots. Dirty tricks involving the date and location of voting. Attempts to disenfranchise minority voters. Impossible to meet standards for registration, absentee voting, and provisional voting. Democratic candidates left off the ballot. And so on. And so on. Some of this is even happening outside Florida.* If you're not a conspiracy nut by now, you're not paying attention."

* "Coulter on the need for racial profiling in airport security: "[T]he only people that need to be searched were the people doing the searching"" i wonder who gets to make up her punishment on redemptionday. http://mediamatters.org/items/200410220006

* "Kerry took on not only the Bush clan and its friends, but the CIA, and members of Congress on both sides of the aisle. This is not irrelevant history, but important to examine, because it reveals a lot about Kerry and how he might respond to terrorism or other global criminal enterprises. Kerry’s record shows that he took on powerful political and bureaucratic interests, was a tenacious investigator, and savvy about international crime and money flows, which is crucial in the fight against terrorism... Senate investigator Jack Blum told me, “This whole collection of people were wrapped up in the Bush crowd in Texas.”" and bobshrum worries that people will think its british tv??? (heres an interesting aside bcci also involved 'Margaret Thatcher’s husband and maybe son' - the son of course is in trouble for apparetnly attempting a coup in eqguinea. nice.)

* "It's ironic that while Republicans have mocked Kerry for claiming the support of foreign leaders, it is Bush who has reaped the only two actual foreign leader endorsements. The deeper irony is who's endorsing him." http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-chait22oct22,1,5890464.column?coll=la-news-comment-opinions

* oreilly keeps calling aljaz terrorists.

* " The Pentagon knows exactly where Osama bin Laden is hiding in Pakistan, it just can’t get to him, John Lehman, a member of the 9/11 commission, said Thursday.
Lehman’s remarks echoed those made Tuesday by Secretary of State Colin Powell, who asserted that the al Qaeda leader was alive and operating in the western part of Pakistan." http://www.thestate.com/mld/thestate/news/local/9983363.htm

* ap " The top American commander in Afghanistan said yesterday he has no evidence that Osama bin Laden is in day-to-day control of al Qaeda but suggested that the long-absent terrorist leader is alive." http://www.washingtontimes.com/functions/print.php?StoryID=20041019-103059-2128r

* "The war in Afghanistan killed at least 10,000 civilians and 20,000 Afghan soldiers (of which 10,000 were POWs allegedly massacred by Northern Alliance soldiers as U.S. Special Forces troops supervised the slaughter.) As of three weeks after the fall of Baghdad, General Tommy Franks estimated Iraqi dead at 30,000 civilians and 30,000 Iraqi soldiers, men who were fighting to defend their country from a hostile invasion army.

* "PRNewswire/ -- The Associated Press (AP) will be the sole source of raw vote totals for the major news broadcasters on Election Night. However, AP spokesmen Jack Stokes and John Jones refused to explain to this journalist how the AP will receive that information. They refused to confirm or deny that the AP will receive direct feed from voting machines and central vote tabulating computers across the country. But, circumstantial evidence suggests that is exactly what will happen." go read. http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/041022/phf016_1.html?printer=1

* "Around the time Henry Makow cited an article from Indymedia Hawaii, which makes a case of the deliberate destruction of the World Trade towers, and after a flap involving photos taken at a G8 conference, the US, representing the Swiss Government, demanded the seizure in London of the news collectivè s servers." http://informationclearinghouse.info/article7115.htm

* "(AP) -- More than 800 former soldiers have failed to comply with Army orders to get back in uniform and report for duty in Iraq or Afghanistan, the Army said Friday. That is more than one-third of the total who were told to report to a mobilization station by Oct. 17.... That no-show rate of 37 percent is roughly in line with the one-third rate the Army had forecast when it began the mobilization to fill positions in regular and Reserve units... Refusing to report for duty normally would lead to AWOL charges" um, the army expects a third to deny orders? thats some serious spinnning. can we leave yet? (actually the article is funny piece of propjournalism)
