Ct Bloggers don't take any prisoners


For those of you who didn't see this.... Connecticut Bloggers put a float in a local 4th of July Parade to rip on Joe Lieberman. This is a paper-mache' replica of George W. Bush's famous kiss of Lieberman after the State of the Union address in 2005. The float went on to say "Just Married" and sported tin cans tied to the back of the float.

Here's a link to the video at http://www.firedoglake.com/page/2/

You'll enjoy it.....

just a note: In the video there is a woman walking with two dogs....that happens to be the famous Jane Hamser, founder of firedoglake.com.

I wonder if in the Pittsville 4th of July Parade, there should be a CENTRAL WISCONSIN BLOGGERS float next year? hmmmmmmm..........that could be interesting.......

Over on Democratic Underground.com there was a great post on The Sons of Liberty who organized to fight the "Stamp Act" and contributed to starting the revolution. In that same thread, there are also some fascinating posts about women of the Revolutionary war....maybe The Daughters of Liberty . Quite frankly, I knew about "Molly Pitcher" but not about so many others who are cited in the thread....here's the linky-thing:

on edit: DON'T FORGET TO KEEP CHECKING BACK AT http://www.progressivetalkstevenspoint.com/ to see what progress is being made on getting AIR AMERICA IN CENTRAL WISCONSIN

Second Update: I know this is "nasty" but rumor has it that one of our favorite AirAmerica Hostesses, Randi Rhodes, has nicknamed the North Korean Missiles as RUSH LIMBUAGH MISSILES....why?

warning, warning warning
Punchline ahead!
Because it only stayed "up" for 45 Seconds!
