[Gabi Hayes]

http://www.keunworldwide.com/amlisten.htm

pretty funny

talking abo "utthe new voting machines in the US"

[Gabi Hayes]

1. Jiminy LOVES the Diebold machines

"people have SO much to do during the day...just relax and chill out. you've got to learn to trust President Cheney!"

[smokey nj]

3. He also loves President Cheney.

:rofl:

[Gabi Hayes]

4. well....I LOVES me the Jiminy Glick.

I taped all the episodes I could find when they were running it at Comedy Central.

matter of fact, I may have to check blockbuster to see if they're renting the movie, which got horrid reviews. who cares?

I liked "It's Pat!"

[Gabi Hayes]

2. ''Bobby, you worry too much''

''President Cheney told me that global warming is nothing to worry about. The insurgency is almost over!''

"Bill of Rights? not familiar with it. LOVED Bill of Divorcement with Katie Hepburn"

[eleny]

5. Wayne Madsen is next week's guest

Or shouldn't I have mentioned that?! :evilgrin: :rofl:

[Gabi Hayes]

7. if Time can love Coulter, why not Madsen on AAR?

who's told more inaccurate tales, and on purpose?

[eleny]

9. Madsen on AAR is fine - just not fine here at the DU

Btw, Short was great. He often gets on my nerves and then he hits my funny bone. I loved the interview.

[Gabi Hayes]

10. hard to argue about Madsen

speaking of Mad....what about Mad Cow Productions?

what's the general take on Hopsicker?

[eleny]

11. I haven't seen anyone quoting them in some time

[Gabi Hayes]

12. they were dissing him on This is Hell today.

along with George Galloway.....Greg Palast says he's got the goods on him.

going to ask him about that tomorrow at his book signing

[eleny]

13. Palast is really down on Galloway

Palast is on fiyah these days.

[Gabi Hayes]

15. well....he says Galloway is involved with dirty money.

Galloway told him to crawl back under his rock.

wonder who's got the goods?

my money's on Palast

here's a Galloway podcast, but it's not coming up so far. can you try it?

[eleny]

17. I have to agree

I loved watching Galloway hand out some red ass when he appeared before the committee. But if I had to choose right now, I'd say that Palast has creds to take to the bank.

[Gabi Hayes]

18. that's what they were saying on the radio today:

they cringe whenever Galloway speaks up on the war, because of his provably (according to them) past

it is sad, though, cause he really DID nail those fffers in congress

but, then, he's got quite a bit of demagogue in him, I'm afraid

[Gabi Hayes]

22. I'm listening to the podcast right now.

Galloway is accusing both the host and Palast of defamation, and is saying he's going to get his lawyers on this story:

Palast said "a million dollars is missing'' from one of the charities with which he's involved, and his ''WIFE took payments'' instead of sending them to emergency funds

Galloway says there's NO money missing from the Mariam (sp?) Appeal, and that no money was improperly spent, according to some Blair-begat investo.

this should be interesting tomorrow.

[Gabi Hayes]

23. whoaaa

wrong post

[eleny]

25. I wish I could see their faces

If Palast is loking confident, then I'm with him. To be continued.

[Gabi Hayes]

26. he seemed VERY confident today.

both he and the host were dissing Galloway in the part I heard (missed the beginning)

this is a 180 from his interview with Galloway to which I'm still listening

he wimped out when Galloway threatened several times to sue over this contretemps...he was talking about suing the host, as well; he went into detail that he was repeating DEFAMATORY material, and his mere repeating it, even though he wasn't making the original charge himself, could get him in trouble, too

very diffident response from the host

you should listen, if you have the time

it took about ten minutes to load, and I have cable modem

it's the very first interview, and the good part is about 1/8 of the way down the slider.

host says Palast has sent the questions he asked on the show, but that Galloway has NOT responded. Galloway, in this interview, claims not to know who Palast is.

TODAY, Palast laughed at that contention, reminding the host that he's on BBC TV


pretty interesting stuff

[eleny]

29. He should know who Palast is

This isn't the first I've heard of Palast going after him.

I've been listening to Laura Flanders waiting for Lt. Watada who's suppposed to be on her program today. I'll catch the Palast audio asap. Sunday's are pretty slow for radio and I can give a listen. Thanks for the head up!

[Gabi Hayes]

30. anytime....I found it on realplayer

twenty nine minutes in, Galloway threatens legal action....right after that: Palast and his wife

http://server.wnur.org/thisishell/archive/20050917_1.ram

thanks for HU on the soldier....I was listening to AAR before the podcast....duh! that's the provenance of this thread, I must say!

6. I love him

[Gabi Hayes]

8. I KNOW! they mentioned it's going to be HERE in Chicago in July!

I will be THERE

did you see Jiminy Glick in Lalawood?

14. I used to love it when he had a talk show - could see Martin Short

every night.

[Gabi Hayes]

16. I have videotapes of that show.....unlabelled, so every so often

I find one.

pretty sure that's where Jiminy Glick got his start. I know he "appeared" there from time to time

[SidDithers]

19. My wife is seeing that this afternoon in Toronto...

I'm waiting for her to get home to hear how it was.

Martin Short, along with Mike Meyers and the late John Candy, are some of the most beloved Canadian comedians up here.

Cheers.

Sid

[Gabi Hayes]

20. Sid! how are things down on your knees?

SCTV....best show ever on

I must say

[SidDithers]

21. Is you talkin' to me?..

Is you is or is you isn't talkin' to me?

Sid Dithers in Taxi Driver...Thursday at 9.

I think I agree with you, Gabi :)

:toast:

Sid

[Gabi Hayes]

24. yes, I IS!

I won a couple DVDs on the radio, after talking to Dave Thomas. I asked him about working with Max von Sydow on Strange Brew, and if he'd ever talked to Bob Hope. he had some VERY funny stories about both

"I'd kiss you, but I have puke breath"

[CatWoman]

27. Am I the ONLY one here who does not find Martin Short funny?

[Gabi Hayes]

28. how DARE you!

the wedding is OFF!

[CatWoman]

31. ROFL!!!

:hi:

[vireo]

32. YES!

Just got tickets for the final performance in Chicago, Gabi.
He is the consummate performer, I must say!
