I was listening what does this mean for Hillary Clinton? If something happens between say now and June 3rd to Obama (unforeseen circumstance) and he goes into big defict and his super delegates start deserting him...what is the MSM going to do after the all the negative coverage of Hillary Clinton if she somehow ends up being the nominee?

Senator Harry Reid was on this morning also but he didn't mention anything about this story on Hot Air...neither did his chums Nancy Pelosi or John Murtha. The War is lost crowd, I am not a Harry Reid fan, I am glad alot of the people who used to come on Imus in the Morning are coming back but I don't line up with them all politically.

Monica,

On this past Saturday ABC radio you failed even to whisper what you had mentioned the previous Saturday: your availibility to be John McCain's running mate on the Republican ticket.

Tell us it wasn't all just a tease. GAB, as previously announced, was preparing to vet you. We are now terribly disappointed. Can you imagine how much?

And then this morning, you on the air with media icon Don Imus again. As analyzed by the Gringo Advisory Board, Don, being chummy with Johnny Boy, is strategically situated for your aforesaid candidacy.

And yet what happened on Imus in the Morning today? Nada. De rien. Silencio. Lots of zilch. No one breathed a word of the ticket or what the Crowley presence could bring to it. Not Don. Not you. Not the minders. Not even El Bernardo del Bronx.

Sweetheart, is this the only way to escape a thorough gringomanic vetting?

Or is it all sub rosa now, secret negotiations---hot developments to be announced at a later date?

[gringoman]

Just in from ObamaWatch:

Rush Limbaugh may run hot and cold, and have been off his game until this wild Election2008 has him in peak form again. (As an aside, many may consider his "Fly-by media" as good or better even than the gringomanic 'Lamestream Media.')

His Operation Chaos has rocked and rollicked. Now, he just came out with a fascinating factoid relating to Obama's mis-speaking on the United States of America.

Recall Obama's "junior moment" last week, when he told us about his visiting "57 states," obviously confused about the country he's made his own. (I linked to the YouTube video proof.)

Rush now mentions something I never heard before, and you may not have either. It is guranteed, by the way, not to warm the hearts of the politically correct who tell us that Obama's legal middle name is off-limits.

Here it is. The Organization of muslim States. Rush says these number 57. Yes.

So, of course, GAB checked it out. The results of our very brief, perfunctory check:

* One site states '56' as the number of these muslim states.

* The only other site I checked did not give a number, but listed the states. I counted them. I counted 57.

You all are finally starting to bore me so much that I'm hardly coming here anymore. Thank you.

Here's a more detailed 'ObamaWatch' from above, posted at gringoman, documenting possible ramifications of Obama's latest gaffe which the Lamestream yuppies will hide for him.

Just in from ObamaWatch:

Rush Limbaugh, Grand Satrap of the 'Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy,' may run hot and cold, and have been off his game until this wild Election 2008 has him revved up again. (As an aside, many may consider his descriptive 'Fly-by media' as good or better even than the gringomanic 'Lamestream Media.')

His OPERATION CHAOS, designed to encourage the natural Democratic tendency to self-destruct with deeply flawed candidates (while admitting a Republican tendency in the same direction) has rocked and rollicked. Now, he just came out with what I call a "fascinating factoid" relating to Obama's mis-speaking on the United States of America.

Recall Obama's "junior moment" last week, when he told us about his visiting "57 states." The "change" lawyer was obviously confused about the country he's made his own. Tired, maybe, or whatever. These things happen, even to the "young." The YouTube video............

http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/05/from_the_if_mccain_did_this_fi.php

Well, Rush now mentions something I never heard before, relating to the recent gaffe about the Democratic hope visiting "57 states." This mention is unlikely, by the way, to please the politically correct, including those who demand that Obama's legal middle name stay off-limits during Campaign 2008.

Here it is: The Organization of Muslim States. Rush says these number 57. Yes.

So, of course, I checked it out. The results of a very brief, perfunctory check:

* One site states '56' as the number of these muslim states.

* The only other site I checked did not give a number, but listed the states. I counted them. I counted 57.

Many will say that this correlation of muslim states and Obama's mis-speaking about American states during a "junior moment" is a meaningless coincidence, just as his Chicago Black Nationalist and Black Muslim associations have nothing to do with him. Maybe they're right. And yet....

Many others will say it's a coincidence, all right, but meaningless? Ask any psychoanalyst, Freudian or post-Freudian.

Escaping Politically Correct

57 is a the product of two prime numbers, 3 and 19, so I believe Obama is a mathematician.

Also, in 1957, Sinatra recorded "Witchcraft", so it could be that Obama is a sorcerer.

[Truther]

Obama associate that could work for either Hillary or Obama :

Where would someone send a contribution to Monica? WABC?

[Truther]

57 is an islamic mystical number also :

http://www.masjidtucson.org/publications/books/sp/1996/jun/page3.html

Dr. Rashad Khalifa was one person that found a significant occurrence in the Quran. So is Obama sending secret numbers in his messages? Who is receiving these?

[Truther]

WE shall have to leave it up to the GAB to decide "Are these just words?"

[Michael Avari]

57 is also mystical number from New Jersey, Bruce Springsteen's home state: "Incident on 57th Street", "57 Channels (and Nothin' On)".

Also, 57-cell, a pentacontaheptachoron, is hemi-dodecahedron, which Plato associated with the fifth element, ether. So Obama is reaching for the Greek vote. But wait ... the Greeks and defeated the Persians, so that can't be Wright.

Also, there is a steak sauce Heinz57, so we know Obama will not get the vegetarian vote.

Has Rush seen any UFO's lately?

FredK, come back, come back. This "Saturday Night Skit" is funny and ties in with Monica's favorite topic.

Good job on Imus this morning, Monica!

[M/M]

In the spirit of multiculturalism, I honor the GREAT Polish heroine, Irena Sendler, who died today at the age of 98. Read this inspiring story of a woman who rescued 2,500 Jewish children from the Nazis during WWII.

I watched SNL. The Hillary Clinton opener was funny for a few minutes, but, typical of SNL, went on too long. The rest of the show was not funny at all. You figure that the time off from the writers' strike would have allowed them to come up with original, funny material, but apparently it made them go stale.

[FredK2929]

Your commander-in-chief, talking like an 8-year-old playing a video game:

"Kick a**! If somebody tries to stop the march to democracy, we will seek them out and kill them! Our will is being tested, but we are resolute. We have a better way. Stay strong! Stay the course! Kill them! Be confident! Prevail! We are going to wipe them out! We are not blinking!"

--George W. Bush, during a White House videoconference about the first battle for Fallujah

from MICHAEL AVARI....... 57 is a the product of two prime numbers, 3 and 19, so I believe Obama is a mathematician.

from GRINGOMAN

Michael,

Good point. In fact, with the multitude of Obama associations, family, middle name, Minister Farrakhan,his Pastor Wright who "converted" from Islam, Obama being the apple of the Hamas eye, the Organization of Muslim States, and with the history of Arab/muslim contributions to mathematics---as you would know---Obama's Freudian slip with the number '57' might place him in the great line of Mohammed-inspired mathematicians.

Of course the Obama-Freudian slip, conflating American and Muslim states, could not have anything to do with the
oft-proclaimed muslim dream of The United Muslim States of America, could it?

The Obama slip may just have been a gentle, subtle way of reminding us that even we kufars use Arabic numbers--- a signal we could expect from a 'moderate.'

[FredK2929]

Maybe the guy was just tired? This is a dumb discussion.

WE shall have to leave it up to the GAB to decide "Are these just words?"

from GRINGOMAN:

GAB has investigated. Here's what it discovered.

Michael Avari sees in the number '57' a connection with Frank Sinatra and Bruce Springsteen etc. Unfortunately, GAB investigation into Obama keeps finding muslim instead of Sinatra/Springsteen connections. (Perhaps Michael made discoveries unknown to the rest of the Western world and will eventually reveal sources for his Sinatra/Springsteen theory?)

So, to answer your question, GAB simply went to the very interesting link you provided. GAB noted the remarkable headline. It is indeed remarkable in light of Obama's (Freudian?) slip using '57' for American states without realizing, or revealing, that it is the number for muslim states (linked in previous comment)

THE GLORIOUS KORAN AND THE NUMBER 57

(Of course, it would be unfair to link Obama with the oft-proclaimed Islamic desire to achieve a United Muslim States of America. It would be unfair because Obama took up Christianity and assures us that he---like his Pastor Wright who converted from Islam---is not a muslim. So it may be best to see Obama's reference to '57' U.S. states as strictly a Freudian and not a Koranic/Freudian slip. You know what I'm sayin'?)

ps Michael, in dismissing the remarkable and obvious muslim associations here, asks whether Rush Limbaugh--- who broke the Obama '57' slip---reports on UFOs.

Truther, maybe you can answer that.

Wasn't it Hussein Obama who keeps telling us that Juan MexiCAIN is too old for the job..?

Good riddance. Don't let the door hit ya.

[M/M]

Ree,

Shortly after 9/11, I was at a book signing, chatting with an older woman in her late 70s. I was discussing the attacks with her and she said something like "this is nothing compared to what I've lived through"". As we discuss our fears of economic hardships and war, I find myself thinking about "The Greatest Generation" and how they survived the Great Depression and fought in a World War.

I was reading the biography of Irena Sendler below and found that she was nominated for a Nobel Peace in 2007 but was beaten by Al Gore for his work on Global Warming. However, 4 Kansas City High School students brought her the recognition she deserves by winning the Kansas History Day state competition with the play they wrote about her called "Life in a Jar".

(Incidentally, this woman was captured and tortured by the Nazis.) It also says in the link that CBS is working on a movie about her life.

UG --

Before I figuratively let the door hit me, I'd figuratively stick your figurative head in the figurative door jamb, and slam it a few times, and possibly figurately knock some sense into you. (Did I mention that I meant this all figuratively?)

BTW -- show me one reliable source reporting that Obama ever said that McCain was too old for the job. (And your little jihadwatch web site is not a reliable source.)

At this point in campaigning, the candidates are indeed getting tired. A little slip like saying he's visited 57 states should be forgiven. Obviously, Obama knows there are 50 states.

But I don't expect conservatives to ever be reasonable where someone on the other side makes an innocent slip. It's just not in your nature. Hence, you are the lunatic fringe.

My cousins and her husband have a ranch Moonriverarabians, they breed and raise Polish Arabians.

In the postwar era, nations such as Poland, Spain, The Netherlands, Sweden and Germany developed or re-established many well-respected Arabian stud farms. The studs of Poland in particular were decimated by both the Nazis and the Soviets, but were able to reclaim some of their breeding stock and became particularly world-renowned for their quality Arabian horses, tested rigorously by racing and other performance standards.

Were you listening this morning? To Imus In The Morning?

http://imustimes.wordpress.com/2008/05/14/imus-ifill-throwdown-next-time-its-garbus/

LOL

[M/M]

Ree,

Thanks for the story about the Polish Arabians and for the link to your family's ranch. I was unaware of the story because history books never seem to discuss that animals are casualties of war too. As I was reading this, I was thinking of how lucky we are to never have had to fight a war on our soil in recent memory.

"Imus Times" and Bruce have redeemed themselves. The Gwen Ifill discussion on "Meet the Press" was the most disturbing part of last year's story. I used to watch "Meet the Press every Sunday", but I watch and ENJOY "This Week with George Stephenoupolos" now. If anyone brings up the Gwen Ifill incident again, I hope Don Imus does sue, for our sakes.

Bo's rant was terrific. Bernie was really funny today, as always. I didn't hear the "Oil Sheiks" skit that well, but it sounded hilarious too.

[Ummah Gummah]

So K-Fred.. can I got to figuratively Gitmo and figuratively flush a few KKKorags down the toilet after I figuratively used the most hateful chapters as to wipe my tuchus...?

Can I then do some Figuartive waterboarding.. just to get revenge for 911 and all the other dastardly deeds done by the MoFoes to innocents world-wide?

Like the recent bombing in North india.. where over 80 died?
