Love that photo. Love, love, love it.
Aww…I can only wish I was that relaxed!
I knew it…a feline paw was the ghostwriter!
Is that a kitty you know Uppity? What a trusting little soul.
Hey The Washington Times actually noticed something: Obama deletes agenda from web site.
http://washingtontimes.com/news/2008/nov/11/exclusive-obama-deletes-agenda-from-transition-web/
Very interesting, Type. I’m kind of glad all those promises are gone, but i bet all those folks who voted for his promises aren’t so thrilled.
No I don’t know the kitteh. Looks like a little Birman, although it’s probably a Siamese just waiting to develop more of its coloring. Cute little bugger but I wouldn’t want it on my keyboard. Fortunately my cat doesn’t do that because if he did, it wouldn’t be pretty considering he’s huge.
I knew it…a feline paw was the ghostwriter!
Dang! The secret is out. You have been talking to the Paw all along!

Join the Resistance.
I thought this an interesting link. It also occured to me that Obamabots could use something like this to find our our personnal info.
How’s that for paranoia?
How’s that for paranoia?
Justified. But they probably have already data mined us.
Star – do you think they put anything in our belly buttons at night?
UW: Do you have a photo up of your huge kitty?
I have two – one is a one eyed guy left at the ASPCA. He’s Mr Wonderful – screw all those people who ridiculed him at the shelter. We got a great one.
I bet those people also voted for Barky.
Heck Star, that’s a far right republican link if I ever saw one. The only thing missing is “Let’s Put George And Dick Back In The White House’. lol.
The kitteh isn’t related to the new kitteh on the left side, is it?
Love the new kittehs, BTW
UW: If you mean the Resistance link, yes far right. I found it on Drudge as an advertisment. That’s why I think it really is an Obama troll trap.
Nice try, Type.
But, all in vain…Uppity won’t post a pic of her cat because by her feline shall we know her true identity.
NES – LOL! Wait – that could mean she is – Cat Woman!!!!
Yes indeed, Type. And Obama is The Riiddler (but we always knew that).
Love the title of this:
Barack Hussein ObamaMcStockMarketCrashieBurton
http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/2008/11/barack-hussein-obamamcstockmarketcrashi.html
I realize this isn’t the tip jar, but I really liked the title.
NES: Gee – I thought Obama was the Joker.
Star – do you think they put anything in our belly buttons at night?
Hey, that’s the aliens. I know the difference.
Dear UW,
I know it’s over a month late, but a reader of mine just referred me to this editorial:
http://www.ornery.org/essays/warwatch/2008-10-05-1.html
Did you ever publish it? Considering all that has happened, it’s most insightful.
Incidentally, my reader referred me to it because of the Washington Post’s recent condemnation of itself by its ombudsman. But both of us agree that she went nowhere far enough.
Ah-while we really hope that BO is less scary than his associations and campaign rhetoric indicated, one of his team let’s the truth slip-
Obama ready to “rule” on day one.

I clicked that resistance link on Drudge to, but found it unsettling on any number of fronts. A trap, a scam or simply being launched by a person or group I wouldn’t want to throw in with.
Indy – I think that link is a trap. Just too weird. I’m not joining anything. If they wanna find me they’ll have to do it here, at NQ or RBO. Other than that I will take to the shadows and move stealth like in my resistance. I will wear a beret tipped over one eye. Not gonna say which eye. I will eat grilled cheese sandwiches and sip a cold beer at the corner diner and peer outside the night darkened window in between the rain drops.
Instead of just talking to kindred spirits about what has gone on, we need to get organized and act – particularly against the sexism in the media. Here is an opportunity to get started:

BE THERE OR BE SQUARE! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist.)
TWS, I’m with you and I like the visual in your post. And griss cheese and beer are my two favorite things!
I meant grilled cheese, ack!
Dear Typewriterstreaming,
Love your film noir like description of your plan for the years ahead. You should be a mystery writer!
Your words also reminded me of this famous painting: http://www.hubarts.com/photos/uncategorized/2007/05/02/05_nighthawks.jpg
Robert
Gee Indy, I was kind of interested in sampling a griss cheese. Maybe we could come up with a new receipe and start off an Uppity Woman’s Cookbook – Surviving On A ShoeString Budget During The Early Days Of An Obama Admin. Then we can do the Sequel: Uppity’s Cookbook Volume 2 – Cooking In Your Barefeet Since Obama Took Your Shoes With Laces.
We can actually start off with a new grill for the Cheese Sandwich – it can have some of these nice Kitty shapes to burn a Kitty effigy in your toast.
Ha Robert – that’s actually what I was thinking of! Ha Ha!
Robert-that painting goes perfectly with TWS’s post.
Kitty shapes-yes!! Love the cookbook ideas too
Anything to divert me from my fear of Obamanation.
Yep, Type…BO is the Joker. Maybe even the Penguin.
Will nicely browned goose be in the book?
The Penguin! Ha – remember Obienokinobe in that tuxedo at the Roast!!!!
Nicely Browned Goose: – excellent suggestion. Any idea for the title of this receipe and some ingredients?
for example in the Holiday Section we can have
Bill’s Roasted Chestnuts.
I really think if we work out a few receipes we could see this to the Puma Nation and keep the roof on UW head.
Nicely Browned Goose: – excellent suggestion. Any idea for the title of this receipe and some ingredients?
Democracy Fowl

Conceal unattractive giblets inside cavity of bird.

Leftovers galore.
Someone can prob do better…
I meant sell the Cookbook to the Pumas.
here’s another thought. I feel all patriotic right now.
Michelle Obama’s National Pie drive.
As the Nation comes together let’s find a way of expressing our deep gratitude to our newest first couple. From shore to shore Michelle reminded us of her quest for a bigger slice of pie. For a limited time (before the post office lays off those 40,000 workers they announced today) Americans can send a piece of pie a day to First Lady Michelle. Let’s make it a national effort – get into your neighbor’s kitchen up and down the block. Use what ever you have to but get those pie pieces in the mail. Let’s send the First Lady a resounding We have heard You and you can have our pie!
Oh Star that is indeed outstanding. I think that cold be the lead off reciepe. I need to write that down. Excellent.
USPS laid off 40,000. What about my Anthony? My mailman. Now they have gone too far!
Star: Isn’t it awful. I am so sad for all those people. Not a word before that I saw.
They release that news today that 40,000 are being layed off and AIG is crying for more money. We need a revolt. Really. It’s absurd.
Pie will have to be in the cookbook! What kind, let’s see…
Rhubarb (implies dissent, nah)
Cherry (first rodeo? Maybe)
Apple (instead of health care reform)
Cream pie (for facials)
Wecan
What else…
Say the WeCan pie – should that one be a prune dish?
we can have a Joe Biden Egg head dish.
Guess there’s no such thing as scrambled egg pie–right? Egghead sounds smart. Peach–too nice. Raspberry?
Are we, er…chewing up too much bandwidth, we can stop.

Valerie Jarret – aka the leftpart of BObo’s brain – told Brokaw that “given the daunting challenges that we face, it’s important that president elect Obama is prepared to really take power and begin to rule day one.”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7Nlq80DVpo
Note the nice useage of “to REALLY TAKE POWER and begin TO RULE” .
I know, Alinksy-nesk Freudian slip but you’d think they’d just use “govern.”
Tunrs out BObo’s plan might just be (at least partially, I suspect a power-struggle) the brain-child of Rahm Emanuel and the Democratic Leadership Council (see Real Barack Obama full details):
http://www.dlc.org/print.cfm?contentid=254076
(makes part of me wonder wether HRC was right about ‘my plans and BObo’s are the same polocies’ as the DLC is certainly Clinton-country.
(btw: for some reason I can’t look at BO without staring at his big floppy ears & he looks somewhat scared at times now. Hence the BObo, I just loved that Simpsons-episode)
Obama Bought The Presidency
Indy, Valerie Jarrett is on the list of possible replacements for Obama’s seat. looks like she’s ready to RULE too.
another Chicago mobster.
hope she takes the thrown early so IF the shoe drops on BHO his day job is gone.
Rasberrry sounds good.
How about Fork Tongue Stew
I also like egg pie. Why not invent a few new items. This is the Obama Revolution.!
Nobama – do you know where those puppies are? In what state? I guess they are for sale right? They’re cute. I hope they don’t wind up in the labor camp at the White House.
Goodnight all.
This is the Obama Revolution.!
Food we can believe in. Yes pecan.
I hope they don’t wind up in the labor camp at the White House.
Have you heard something? It will be at the WH? I figured Utah since Cuba was taken.
isn’t this just sweet? Howard Dean is stepping down from DNC, & Brazilla or Alice Germond may be taking over. I’m definitely done with the Dems either way. http://blog.washingtonpost.com/thefix/?hpid=topnews
It couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. His Trippi based organization has now assimilated him. His uniqueness is no longer required.
DHL is laying off 9500 employees in Ohio. I hope that all voted for Barfy.
Frigging Bush. Barfy puts his arm around him like that photo of McCain his campaign derided for 6 months. Bush probably looked into Obama’s eyes and saw his own soul.
Raging…I have to check, but I think RBO has a lot on Jarrett. Someone needs to tell this nasty crew that the job is to LEAD, not to rule. I’m originally from the Chicago area, and the crookedness reaches into everything-statewide as far as I could tell. (Across party lines as well).
P4P-I couldn’t agree more. From demographics I’ve seen so far, a great deal of his voters stand to take a financial hit from his proposed policies, which suits me fine.
Also hope they are hearing what the Wright/Pfleger/Ayers/Farrakan (sp) peanut gallery is spewing now that The Mess won. I was going to give him a chance, but since he has never had the balls or sense to really come out against these racist, sexist, America-hating hacks I will assume the absolute worst about him unless he proves me wrong.
Then there is all the Obots “reaching out” to people who didn’t vote for him. Has anyone seen that? If I had a weaker stomach the campaign would have caused me Linda Blair worthy projectile vomiting. After all the years of invective and hate from at least part of the Dem party, now they want to convince people they want to make nice? Are they f-ing kidding me?
If you want a look, gird your loins and click the link. I’m not buying it.

OMG-ROFLMAO!!!!
That is true comedy! lolol
Fox had one of their dopey body language women on analyzing how the two men walked…said they weren’t communicating. Uh, ok, thanks for coming on the show.
This country really has lost IQ points. I don’t like to be mean…but even Cavuto was wringing out a hanky about how this is the best country on earth, etc. I love my country, but I also expect a lot from it–I expect to be able to hire someone to govern it competently so I can go about raising my family. I have a mom and a kid to raise. I don’t expect change, sweeping “new” ideas, bailouts, secret agendas, and to be ruled or carted off if I object publicly to anything!.
Egg pie is called Quiche.
Obama on his first meeting with Bush in 2004, taken from The Audacity of Hope.
(HOW FRIGGIN’ IRONIC!)
Obama wrote. “The president’s eyes became fixed; his voice took on the agitated, rapid tone of someone neither accustomed to nor welcoming interruption; his easy affability was replaced by an almost messianic certainty. As I watched my mostly Republican Senate colleagues hang on his every word, I was reminded of the dangerous isolation that power can bring, and appreciated the Founders’ wisdom in designating a system to keep power in check.”
Indy and P4$P!! =
Neither W or BOzo HAVE a soul. If W saw anything,
in BOzo’s eyes, it was darkness & emptiness.
On the other hand, do you think Bush isn’t overjoyed?
He’s laughing inside and saying “It’s allll yours, kid.”
BO is in deep shit now. Markets keep losing. When BO had his first press conference the other day, the CNN stock ticker inset dropped 100 points in minutes.
Guess we’ve seen the last of uh uh uh uh midday press conferences. When he got off the stage, the stocks rallied as if to say, “Don’t scare us like this again!”
NYS , you missed the part where after bush shook barkys hand a bush aid brought him some hand sanitizer.
Holy shit, Mike!!
That passage isn’t just ironic but describes jerkO
throughout the last 2 years. He has taken on the
image of the man he despised so much. What a revealing passage.
The reign of terror begins.

Barfy’s Secret Service code name is Renegade. Figures.
Join the Resistance”
I’m seeing te word “Resistance” more and more. That word, of course, describes a beseiged people living in war time.
Typey,
I felt like I was inside an Edward Hopper painting. That was beautiful….
Viva La Resistance!!!!

That’s good Sharon H
(Rama Dama Ding Dongs) we have em in excess.
Damn Chambliss race is so hopeless with fraud, they’re having a do-over. If Hillary had revotes in Fla and Mich, we wouldn’t have all the freaking fraud (or the one taking office after Jan 20)….
Omy and Inaugural hotel rooms are alreadfy sold out to the tune of $1000? Gee, must be leftover campaign money or maybe Oprah is busing all the blacks in and giving them tickets?
I expected no less than BarfO to go back on campaign promises after he was elected, as WAPO reported today. From stiffing ACORN volunteers to renigging on promises, Barfy IS batting zero!! Fitting, that. What, he is NOT going to treat women better either? Whoa.
BO is the one, all right= ONE (or less) and done.
Be sure to watch Sarah Palin on with Greta of FOX at 10 EST or 9 CDT. She may not have future plans yet, but should run for Senate seat from Alaska.
Forgive me if this is already been addressed, but this really should be spread far and wide. The part of note deals with the non-profit set up by BO (on change.gov). This is scary, scary stuff. My apoligies to those who already read about this.

It is sad how many people fell for him, couldn’t see through the illusion.
Joe Biden is not an egg head. Joe Biden has a low normal IQ. And i do mean LOW normal. He likes to pretend he’s a genius but everything about him says he’s not. He just a guy who runs off at the mouth and the more he runs off the more stupid he sounds. He wasn’t at the bottom of his class for nothing. He is the classic example of a guy who didn’t belong in college. This is also why he has a penchant for cheating/plagiarism. I would venture to say that in his circle, the only one who thinks he’s smart is Joe.
Now how do you really feel about Biden? lol Maybe he was chosen for his average intelligence and lack of spine.
Hannity likes to say Joe “is the smartest guy in the room. just ask him.”
Biden was chosen as a deterrent much as Cheney was……the inference being should something happen to BO, look at what you’ll get. Worked for Bush, didn’t it? NOBODY wanted Cheney anywhere near any important buttons or switches. Biden makes Dan Quayle look erudite in comparison.
I’m behind on reading, so you may have already written about this, and the tips and links place seems to be full; but this thing with the 401(k)s and IRAs is really making me crazy. Advance Indiana has a good post about it. Here are a few excerpts. I just love it when people use the word “confiscate” when talking about our money that we have had the foresight to save, but I guess I better get used to it.
http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2008/11/former-hoosier-economist-leads-call-to.html
“Ghilarducci proposed that the government eliminate tax breaks for 401(k) and similar retirement accounts, such as IRAs, and confiscate workers’ retirement plan accounts and convert them to universal Guaranteed Retirement Accounts (GRAs) managed by the Social Security Administration.”
“Ghilarducci’s plan is based on a paper she wrote last year entitled, ‘Agenda for Shared Prosperity.’”
(Now doesn’t Agenda for Shared Prosperity sound ever so much better than “spread the wealth”?)
“The employer would be responsible for one half of the contribution but would receive no deduction for the contribution. Capital gains would be taxed annually. If you die, you are allowed to bequeath only one half of your GSA to your family. If you die after you retire, your heirs receive your contributions to your GSA, plus your interest but minus contributions paid to you before your death and contributions made by your employer.” (Employer gets no deduction? Capital gains taxed annually — does this mean as they accrue rather than when you actually receive them, which would mean at a higher rate than after you retire? What the hell does it mean? And if your heirs don’t get this, who the hell does? It’s your money they’re “confiscating,” although I’m sure they’ll come up with a much nicer sounding word to use for it.)
In a comment, Advance Indiana says the social security payroll tax is on top of the 5% payroll deduction for the GSA. One commenter says this plan is why they’re also trying to get more gun control passed. I believe that.
Arggghhhhhhh!
The woman who looked into Joe the Plumbers files etc was suspended today,,,,, My mind is blank forgot her name and forgot her position…
LOL Obama insulted as President used hand sanitizer after they shook hands today :
HE’s UPSET~~????
No wonder he cleaned his hands after what was said on the campaign trail~~
Here’s looking at u Mr Obama
–@_@–
http://www.barackobama.tv/?p=71
Those ppl get so offended so easily. Bush was just trying to clean his dirty hands. You don’t know. Maybe Zer0 went to the bathroom and no one heard the sink running afterwards, so they pulled out the hand sanitizer. Bush shook hands for the cameras, and then squealed with delight when the sanitizer appeared.
Maybe Bush has become an OCD kinda guy with respect to germs.
Hah! Good one.
LOL I am a hand washer freak…..
That whole story that Obama tells about his meeting with Bush has been refuted by those who were there.
I’ve fallin’ in love with a kitty. And I’m a dog person.This election has driven me ’round the bend.
It happens, mary-ellen. But we’ll keep it quiet. lol.
Star, your recipe wins the prize. Priceless.
Ahh, an open thread.
There’s several people who cannot get into No Quarter since they changed servers around Oct 25. I sent them an email letting them know. Some of you might visit over there, so will you let them know if they’re missing people it’s not because we don’t like them anymore, LOL?
In the meantime, I’m quite happy to hang out at Uppity’s.
Now for the important stuff–what did you think of Michelle’s second red dress? That woman is tall!
I thought the hand goo was the first time they met. Did Bush do it again?
I heard that Obama had written in one of his books (don’t know firsthand because I haven’t read them) that he was offended the first time he met Bush because Bush used hand cleaner after they shook hands. Karl Rove was on one of the Fox shows last night (Hannity, I think) and he said he was present at that meeting and that incident never happened (like so much of the stuff in Obama’s books).
Well, I’m sure Bush is insulted by the untrustworthiness of Obama.
Seems O leaked the PRIVATE conversation that he and the president had yesterday in the Oval Office!
He didn’t wait very long!
