His actual quote was, “We’re in the red zone, we’ve got to punch it through.” But you are correct it is more like RAM IT. And as the Bitch of the House said,
"But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy. Furthermore, we believe that health care reform, again I said at the beginning of my remarks, that we sent the three pillars that the President’s economic stabilization and job creation initiatives were education and innovation—innovation begins in the classroom—clean energy and climate, addressing the climate issues in an innovative way to keep us number one and competitive in the world with the new technology, and the third, first among equals I may say, is health care, health insurance reform."
What a dithering idiot, there is no sense nowhere, my mother always taught me not to hate that dislike was the better term, but this woman tries my patience.
Tru dat Snowman!
He’s one of our very own, I share your affinity for his work.

"You go through the gate. If the gate’s closed, you go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we’ll pole-vault in. If that doesn’t work, we’ll parachute in. But we’re going to get health care reform passed for the American people."
Agree!
Although I am of like-minded politics myself Loco & gnossos, and the toonies are spot-on and hilarious as all get out. . . .politics has an awkward affect on people’s nerves. It’s best we chillax on the Bomma-mama & No-pants Nance! (she gets around). ;- )

Is Lance of Dallas of Italian ancestry?
As in, the Siciliano-kind? No Pants Nance married into a well-connected San Francisco Italian family. Think, Alioto, Bonanno, et. al. peeps. Apparently these families are in the “banking” and “baking” businesses that just so happened to ascend to the top of Bay Area politics back in the day- and had the Bonanno money to help bankroll them.
“Well-connected” being the operative word here.

Crazy ass-stuff!
That’s either a- literally, sad story? Or, a therapeutically bad one? I’ve never heard of the guy, but to be married to Joey Heatherton and blow it by advertising your johnson to young girls. . . .? . . . .man! that’s BEYOND blowing it!
BTW: To answer your question from the other day on a different thread: yes, I’ve heard of Dan Jenkins and I’m sure I’ve read numerous columns of his in SI print editions. . . .but, I don’t think I’ve ever read any of his books. There’s this “other” Jenkins-guy who writes for The SF Chronicle (Bruce) that I initially thought you are/were referring to. Then, just to be sure- I googled Dan Jenkins and knew I had the wrong Jenkins in mind. Considering I used to have a SI magazine prescription for over 8 years as a youth- I know I’ve come across Dan at one time or another. I used to read that mag front-to-back.
Anything you recommend on Dan? I’d be happy to check him out if you’ve got something good to guide me towards. I’m finishing up 2 of the current 4 books I’m currently/simultaneously reading right now. A trip to the library or bookstore is in order for me soon. Maybe this weekend?

Lance was a pretty good wide receiver played at Oklahoma under Bud Wilkinson, drafted in the 2nd round by Minnesota, later played for Dallas in the “Ice Bowl” catching the go ahead touchdown from Dan Reeves, setting the table for Bart Starr and the Packers to win with time running out.
On to Mr. Jenkins,
Well, anything by him his great, and he has been prolific. He is one of my favorite writers, making me laugh, out loud in public.
Here’s a small sample of his wit and humor from “Baja Oklahoma”
“Mankind’s Ten Stages of Drunkenness”
0). A Zero is sober
1). Witty and Charming
2). Rich and Powerful
3). Benevolent
4). Clairvoyant
5). F**k Dinner
6). Patriotic
7). Crank Up the Enola Gay
8). Witty and Charming, Part II
9). Invisible
10). Bulletproof
I love them all especially #5, been there a “few” times!
I would start out with “Semi-Tough” then “Life It’s Ownself” (both about football) then the aforementioned “Baja Okalahoma” (about living in Texas). If you like golf, “Dead Solid Perfect,” “The Money-Whipped Steer-Job-Three-Jack Give-Up Artist,” and “Slim and None.”
That will get you started, but like I said anything by him is great, if you go on Amazon you can find all his books, enjoy. By the way his daughter Sally writes sports for the Washington Post.
#5? Now that is just hi-fucking-larious!
Me? Prolly 1 and 8 for sure, which then evolves to #10 real quick-like and it’s the next day that I usually find out about #5. Always happens that way.
“Semi-tough” it is, then. Thanks! (i find, getting a referral towards literature- is much the same as knowing your Creator has blessed you in some way. not that I’m ever thinking “people” can ever be “gods”. . . . .more like- feeling like the world has just smiled at you. akin to a gift!)
To truly, “Thank you”

I agree on principle...
However, this is an extraordinary time and some of us don’t want to remain silent in the face of what’s going on around us. Plus it’s the offseason!
As a card carrying Boomer I have to say I’m not surprised, but I am a more than a bit embarrassed. This is all our fault. All that long haired, bell bottomed, tie dyed, protest and flag burning shit was just too much fun! Back in the 60’s and 70’s we were willing to trade our freedom for sex, drugs and rock-n-roll, but we couldn’t stop. Later came the second, third and fourth cars, the second, third and fourth marriages, screwed up kids on Ritalin and Prozac, the McMansions, the gambling on Wall Street. Yep, this baby is all ours. Sorry young-uns, we did it to you, screwed the pooch. Its not enough though, we need more, much more, and you’re going to pay for it! Please don’t blame us, we just couldn’t help ourselves!

If only I can sway our party to GET BIG
. . . . on funding education (all aspects of primary education, top to bottom. yes, including the arts, for sure on after-school athletics, and you better believe it in sciences) and GO LESS on pro-life and our opposition to solving the banking/financial crisis. The extreme right is our dead-weight that repeatedly sinks us at state-level politics and the whores of our party must quell their enthusiasm over banking and finance reform. Afterall, it doesn’t matter what the economic condition is, WE KNOW HOW TO MAKE MONEY! It just pisses me off that some in our party, don’t GET that. De-regulation? Who cares? Regulation? Same thing, there are strategies and avenues that are easy to explore and invest in. If not, create the frame on “needs and wants”, develop a 5-year, get VC capital, and BINGO! You’ve just created a cottage industry, again. I want membership on MORE BOARDS, gosh-dang it! Nothing is worse than witnessing shrinking boards and flat-portfolios. Nothing. (except, maybe a football loss to fUcla?)

It’s clowns like that got us in this mess, of course they didn’t force us to follow them. I’ve go their album in my vinyl collection, still sounds good but now that I’m older (and have kids) I have my regrets about that whole era. We f’d it all up for them.

Back in the day.................so long ago
Look what’s happening out in the streets
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Hey I’m dancing down the streets
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Ain’t it amazing all the people I meet
Got a revolution Got to revolution
One generation got old
One generation got sold
This generation got no destination to hold
Pick up the cry
Hey now it’s time for you and me
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Come on now we’re marching to the sea
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Who will take it from you
We will and who are we
We are volunteers of America
yah but they where saying make love not war, I never cared about the Hippies thought they were lazy ass druggies. But I did see pleanty of my friends go to Viet Nam and ether get killed or messed up , fighting a political war.
BASICALLY OUR GOVERNMENT SUCKS BECAUSE IT IS RAN BY MILLIONAIRES AND BOTTOM FEEDERS, IF WE CONTINUE TO LETS THESE FOOLS RUN US THE WHOLE COUNTRY WILL PARISH.
That is not any suck ass singers lyrics it is an American’s thoughts, yah I am a radical person but at least I believe in my fellow homosapians (excluding politicians).

You're right
One of the reasons why is that the majority of them are lawyers and most of them have never run a business and had to meet a payroll. They are like punks in Vegas playing with OPM.
You speak the truth so.cal., I lost two friends to that accursed war. Viet Nam was the fuel that made the “revolutionary” machine run, it lent credence to the hippie argument, made us all stop believing in the America of old. I have one slight quibble with your argument, the war was more business than political, a way to reduce unemployment by getting young men off the streets and “pump-up” the economy with military spending. Classic.

Yes you are right it was business all the way but I always tie in business and government when comes to war.
The thing is I come from a republican family and they always complained about the democrats, I would tell them all that it doesn’t matter what group they are all out for themselves. Sorry but this next statement will step on some toes, but since I was 17 I always have hated or government and wanted a revolt.

Problem with revolts is you never know what you’ll end up with -except a lot of dead people. In general terms all revolutions end badly.

Indeed!
As a Chileno, I know all too well what happens to a well-run, democratically-elected, uncorrupt government when a coup occurs to topple the existing government.
I’ve oftentimes asked some of my friends and relations throughout the years, as they’ve expounded on “revolt”, “revolution”, and “toppling the system”: Say we do start a revolution- and then what? What can we expect and do, that will be better or more egalitarian (fair) than the current existing system and/or model? To have “action”, you’ve got to have a plan. And if you have a plan, it better be better than the existing one- or else why bother?"
It’s not enough to die for your country. One must be willing to die for your fellow countrymen. And their children, and their children’s children.

There are many other examples that turned out even worse than Chile. Quickly we can think of France’s guillotines, Russia’s Gulags, Fidel’s purges, Mao’s re-education camps, a score of African debacles, the list goes on and on. When I was a kid and heard Grace Slick and others sing about it I thought it was awesomely cool, revolutionaries were swashbuckling heroes of the people. By age 20, I had read enough to realize that a) I was very foolish kid, b) My Dad was right about almost everything and c) I should enjoy my music and movies, but never take political advice from an artist.

Half my family was pro-US. . . . .
. . . . .half my family was pro-Allende.
I have no attachment to frozen Ruskies, 200 year old, no-headed French-fucks, or very, very, very hard-working Asians. What I do have an attachment to are cousins, 2 uncles, and too many to mention family relations who may or may not have been:
thrown out of a plane at 45,000 ft
decapitated by their best friend of family member, along with their hands and buried out somewhere in the Atacama (and I’m from the Antofagasta region)
imprisoned and raped to the point of insanity and released in the slums of Rio
straight up murdered in front of a firing squad
26 people in all. I knew them (mostly, and somewhat- I was an infant) or they knew me- for sure. I would have ended up loving them as I do my own brother and sisters. On a special day, my family thinks of them with pictures attached to our bodies and we drink, dance, and joke with them. As imaginary as that might seem to the average person, believe me- EVERYTHING about it is REAL!
Was Pinochet worth it?
My family is still 50/50. Me? No way. Not ever, was he worth it.
