wavelength called ditto

I just showed this same clip to my students not more than two months ago. I get to teach guitar every Friday at the alternative high school where I work, so among other things I show video footage of famous musicians in live performance. Today was Alice Cooper.

It just amazes me how in sync you and I always seem to be. I have music for your brilliant lyrics "Dead God's Holy Mass" and I've rehearsed that tune several times now. However, I'm currently distracted by the prospect of recording some of the most talented musicians I've ever met. Think Dethklok, only not imaginary nor animated (but still brutal). I also have my Spanish translation of "This Land is Your Land" to do. As soon as I can I will produce a cut, that's all I can promise.

Meanwhile, thanks for being so fucking funny and real. As I told the General, I'm endorsing Obama. I'm looking forward to your non-endorsement of the same. Best wishes and bright hopes until tomorrow comes.

The text of HR676 (Medicare For All) as PDF (30 pages). The FAQ. Compare HR3200 with HR676.

Medicare for All would save $350 billion a year (study in New England Journal of Medicine).

In 2003, a young Illinois state senator named Barack Obama told an AFL-CIO meeting, "I am a proponent of a single-payer universal healthcare program*." -- Bill Moyers.

18:12:59 lambert Simple answers to simple questions: Yes.
18:00:47 BDBlue That's true on healthcare, but I was talking about the Fed bill. When the WH surrogates try to water it down, will the blogs fall in line?
16:32:33 lambert They'll pass something, anything. They need to declare victory.
15:40:03 BDBlue Re VL's post on the A-list, it will be interesting to watch the discussion of the bill on the blogs as the WH inevitably tries to kill it via various surrogates. Will we see the veal pen in action? And I agree this bill is potentially huge.
13:36:52 lambert Agree on Ron Paul and the Fed.
13:23:52 brucedixon interesting.... Glen tells me that neither the fake "jobs summit" nor the familiar wailing of conyers about his being disappointed with the prez are the big story. the most important thing happening in DC right now is the Ron Paul bill which wd require the Fed to be audited.
13:57:03 brucedixon I think my colleague Glen Ford is writing on it this week in BAR so I will just co-sign whatever he says.
22:03:36 Valley Girl I'd sure like Bruce Dixon's take on the Conyers comments. Just emailed him.
21:03:43 lambert Thanks, Jeff.
18:16:03 Jeff W lambert, I wrote to NOW about that Elizabeth Warren video not playing and got a response of sorts back, which I sent to you as a private PM. Just FYI.

Gaslight

A form of psychological abuse characterized by persistent denials of fact which, over time, have the effect of causing the victim to become anxious, confused and progressively less able to trust his or her memory and perception. From the 1944 movie gaslight with Charles Boyer and Ingrid Bergman.
