EXTRA! EXTRA!
WILD TURKEYS THREATEN YOSEMITE!
(So we needn’t feel so bad about eating the bastards)

GOBBLE FUCKING GOBBLE
I learned a lot today. As in...

South Caroline is the #1 turkey producing state in the nation. (But, unfortunately, the toxicity in the birds is growing.)

Mark Morford is brilliant. This link was sent over by Munz, and just the fact that such a piece of writing ran in the San Francisco Chronicle, says a whole lot. Dare we hope Bush really is in the bunker? Really? Really? So when will they hand out the revolvers and cyanide caps?

In the middle of the obligatory patriotic Thanksgiving TV footage of poor fucking National Guard grunts eating turkey under orders to look happy, a shot of a company on patrol revealed that their uniforms were less than...(well)... uniform, and that identical Imperial Storm Trooper look has started deteriorating into individual improvisation like flack jackets and cut-off t-shirts. A Vietnam vet of my acquaintance told me to watch out for this, since it means, in a precise and basic way, that the noble cause is history, and that each unit is simply watching out for its own survival. The next stage is scrawling peace signs on the helmets with a Magic Marker.

I’m still watching the pandacam. (Today I actually caught him awake and wrestling with his mommy.)

It seems that Bob Dylan is currently including a Clash song in his live show.

I’m also wondering why so many of the Yuletide tunes backing TV commercials in this desperate holiday are being sung by Dean Martin.

AND ON THE ANNIVERSARY OF DEALEY PLAZA...

SCENES FROM IDIOT AMERICA
No comments, just read ’em and weep...

"The godfather of the Dominionists is D. James Kennedy, the most influential evangelical you've never heard of. "Our job is to reclaim America for Christ, whatever the cost," Kennedy says. "As the vice regents of God, we are to exercise godly dominion and influence over our neighborhoods, our schools, our government, our literature and arts, our sports arenas, our entertainment media, our news media, our scientific endeavors -- in short, over every aspect and institution of human society."

"The Rev. Richard Land, top lobbyist for the 16-million-member Southern Baptist Convention, enjoys a weekly conference call with top Bush advisers including Karl Rove. "We've got the Holy Spirit's wind at our backs!" Land declares in an arm-waving, red-faced speech. He takes particular aim at the threat posed by John Lennon, denouncing "Imagine" as a "secular anthem" that envisions a future of "clone plantations, child sacrifice, legalized polygamy and hard-core porn."

AND TALKING OF ROVE...
While our attention is on CIA leaks and Iraq, post-Katrina New Orleans turns into a mendacious shell game. Kaymo sent over the following from today’s NYT.

"BATON ROUGE, La., Nov. 18 - Less than three months after Hurricane Katrina ravaged New Orleans, relief legislation remains dormant in Washington and despair is growing among officials here who fear that Congress and the Bush administration are losing interest in their plight. As evidence, the state and local officials cite an array of stalled bills and policy changes they say are crucial to rebuilding the city and persuading some of its hundreds of thousands of evacuated residents to return, including measures to finance long-term hurricane protection, revive small businesses and compensate the uninsured.
"There is a real concern that we will lose the nation's attention the longer this takes," said Representative Bobby Jindal, a Republican from Metairie, just west of New Orleans. "People are making decisions now about whether to come back. And every day that passes, it will be a little harder to get things done."
So now that New Orleans has been emptied of the Democrat voting base, is there any reason to think that the Rovian GOP has any intention of really rebuilding anything there except a kind of "Partyland" around the French Quarter? The city can be safely downgraded now to a small tourist destination, and a largely automated port facility."

THE MORE TIME PASSES, THE MORE OF A BILL CLINTON FAN I BECOME
And happy to see that he is finally climbing down off the fence on Iraq.

Now I go back to watching the panda roll over in its sleep.
Damn it, but that panda can sleep!
