And now for something completely different… (+ Open Thread)..

Props to the boys from Monty Python for today’s opening line.

Assuming my voice survives my special Inauguration Day Counter Programming show and The Warrior’s show on Tuesday night yours truly will be back in his usual home, Wednesday’s at 9PM Eastern for another edition of “No Topic Taboo…Everything Else with Jay.” Now this week I think we will try something different.

After Tuesday’s events I can’t speak for everyone but I for one would like to take a short break from the gloom and doom of the real world. So I am taking the show in that direction for one night. Thursday morning durning the morning news shows the nominees for the years Academy Awards will be announced. One of the films getting Oscar buzz is “The Wrestler” starring Mickey Rourke who recently won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a film for his portrayal.

With that in mind, I will bring on Brimstone, a professional wrestler & an actor who will bring us inside the squared circle talk a bit about life in the biz. To get a taste of “Brimmy” as I call him, visit his website.

As always wether I have a guest or not everything is on the table and the show is yours. We have a senator about to be named in my home state of New York, a Super Bowl about to be played with a very special half-time show, and then there are those real world issues of the first day of a new administration. It’s all in play if you want it. As always, you can call in your questions during the show at 347-677-0792. E-mail me at the show via ntteewithjay@me.com or on show night leave your comments in the chat room. I do read them and do address them on the air.

So if it’s Wednesday, it’s “No Topic Taboo…Everything Else with Jay” at 9PM Eastern, 8 Central, 7 Mountain, 6 Pacific. Be there.

    OK Jay…I agree

  • Dawnelle

    Just tell me if he’s an OBOT or NOT

    then I will try to be there

    I try to never listen to them speak any longer as most of what they say is soaked in koolaid.

    I refuse to live the next 4 yrs wanting to slap everyone I encounter so I just will avoid the BOTS when I can.

    lol but seriously do you know? ;-)

  • HARP

    Academy Awards……..more self praise for accumulating wealth at the expense of others.

    And OOOhhh they can all compare their gowns to that little Charmin number MO had on.

    Good Morning No Quarterites..!!

    Glad to see you have built a Fire as usual..Nice and warm in here..on these Cold days..

    The talk show Hosts on KIRO yesterday said hat the Presidents Inagural speech was was dull..No eight second sound bite like;;”ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU…ASK WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY..’..

    I Heard President Obama say one line in that sppech that struck me as another possible eight second sound Bite..at least to me..

    President Obama said..

    “YOUR PEOPLE WILL REMEMBER YOU FOR WHAT YOU BUILD…NOT FOR WHAT YOU DESTROY…”‘

    unfortunatley he read his speech..and did not make the “Delivery” he should have..

    I think if he had delivered the Above line like JFK Delivered “ASK NOT”..it would have made an
    Impact..

  • ipotter

    Will bo be nominated for acting “presidential”? What happened yesterday has to be part of a movie or something, can’t believe it was for real.

  • SJ

    Well I cant say I want to talk about anything else I have a great concern this morning now that Obama has gotten his way with the Gitmo trials and stopped them, should we not all feel a lot safer?

    First day in office and this is his first act, giving these nuts a chance, am sorry but I only hope this man really knows what the hell he is doing, I sure at this moment not feeling too sure about my safety once again.

  • HARP

    And the winner is………Obama…..for starring as BOGUS POTUS.

    Hollywood can kiss my ass. They are all a bunch of friggin’ sefish, self righteous phonies.

    Is this how Barack Obama plans on holding GWB accountable for possible violations to the US Constitution during his (GWB’S) terms in office?

    ‘Dissing, offending, and berating’ versus ‘real accountability’ through the instigation of a criminal investigation?

    New White House site slams Bush
    By ANDY BARR | 1/20/09

    The new White House website unveiled by President Barack Obama’s team Tuesday includes a shot at former President Bush’s response to Hurricane Katrina.

    Under the “agenda” portion of the site regarding Katrina, it reads: “President Obama will keep the broken promises made by President Bush to rebuild New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. He and Vice President Biden will take steps to ensure that the federal government will never again allow such catastrophic failures in emergency planning and response to occur.”

    “President Obama swiftly responded to Hurricane Katrina,” the statement on the site continues. “Citing the Bush Administration’s ‘unconscionable ineptitude’ in responding to Hurricane Katrina, then-Senator Obama introduced legislation requiring disaster planners to take into account the specific needs of low-income hurricane victims.”

    The site also points out that Obama “visited thousands of Hurricane survivors in the Houston Convention Center and later took three more trips to the region” and worked with the Congressional Black Caucus to help rebuild in the aftermath of Katrina.

    Here is a reminder of why many people in US & around the world wanted GWB and his admin impeached…
    according to a detailed investigation conducted by The Center For Public Integrity

    http://www.publicintegrity.org/WarCard/

    “President George W. Bush and seven of his administration’s top officials, including Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, made at least 935 false statements in the two years following September 11, 2001, about the national security threat posed by Saddam Hussein’s Iraq. Nearly five years after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, an exhaustive examination of the record shows that the statements were part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses”

    And now, Barack Obama wants us to stop acting childish, look to the future, forget about the past as he implements CHANGE in our country?
    He is not interested in starting any investigation into GWB actions? He just wants him to ‘slide out quietly into the sunset-never to be heard from again?”

    You can bet that our 44th president and his administration will be closely watching to see how the American people will react to his not wanting to open investigations on our 43rd president.

    Our response to this will send a clear message to our 44th president as to how accountable he will be to us…

    and everything written below it-

    is MY comment.
    This is my response to what I read in Politico.

    Ny apologies for not being clear originally…

    ROWDY. Eastwood is a one of a kind good, bad, and ugly all rolled into one. LOL! MAKE MY DAY! and he carries a gun with a barrel so long he uses it for a walking cane today. :) . But the “Unforgiven” thing was terribile.

  • BernieO

    Want a laugh? Check this out:
    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/01/19/ayers-turned-away-canada-immigration-officials/

    This past Sunday Canada refused to allow Bill Ayers to enter the country.

    Hahahahahahahahahahahha.

  • truthorconsequences

    “ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU… ASK WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY..’…

    But that would go in the opposite direction of REPARATION!!

  • truthorconsequences

    I suggested putting Ayers in the quarenteened cattle pens in Laredo Tex to keep him out of Canada. I still think it a good idea.

    If Obama wants to be better than Bush, he can start out with his friggin’ birth certificate and his records.

    Until then, he is lower and more deviant than Bush.

    Obama=biggest fraud of the universe

  • http://deleted Buzz Latte LaRue

    What about all the false statements Obama has made?

    If he wants accountability, let’s start with him!!!!

    Where’s the birth ceritificate, Barack!!!!

  • http://sonicninjakitty.wordpress.com Sonic Ninja Kitty

    Wow! I am listening to Obama give another speech right now and he’s talking about the wonderful new transparency we will have. He said he will hold himself to a higher standard and anything we need to know about him or any past president will be open and that this administration will live up to the letter and spirit of the Freedom of Information Act….blah blah blah.

    Dudes! I am totally on board with this guy! Let’s start with that birth certificate.

  • BernieO

    I think this is the best thing I have ever read about Ayers and I particularly like the fact that it was published in the left-wing “Nation”.

    http://www.thenation.com/blogs/anotherthing/388681/bill_ayers_whitewashes_history_again?rel=sidebox

    Katha Pollit hits the nail on the head with this:

    “I wish Ayers would make a real apology for the harm he did to the antiwar movement and the left………..I’d like him to say he’s sorry for his part in the destruction of Students for a Democratic Society. He’s sorry he helped Nixon make the antiwar movement look like the enemy of ordinary people.”

    Too many on the left still romanticize Ayers and his buddies. They refuse to face the fact that these people destroyed the peaceful antiwar movement and set progressive causes back for years.
    I was in college in DC at the time and remember how people who had enthusiastically participated in the peaceful protests dropped out after the radicals took over. The Republicans tarred all liberals by association and used this fear tactics for years to defeat Democrats. Lefties who defend Ayers repudiate the very values that liberals stand for.

    Hey…I once Visited the Amarillo Stockyards and Had Lunch there..I found out what was the favorite item on the menue for those COWBOYS..
    Rocky Mountain Oysters…Don’t put BOOER BILLY AYERS in a stockyard..

    Stockade..Yes..where The A`Hole belongs..

  • BernieO

    I just heard on NPR that Obama did not participate when Warren asked everyone to join him in saying the Lord’s Prayer. Is that true?

  • http://baddemocrat08.wordpress.com/ obamastolemyboyfriend

    That is exactly why he will investigate no one! Why would he investigate anyone when he wants his past hidden? You don’t point at the other guy if you don’t want to draw attention to yourself.

    Many will be disappointed, but I do not feel bad. they are naive. I agree with Obama in that it is time for them to grow up! He knows his bots! that’s how he won!

  • http://baddemocrat08.wordpress.com/ obamastolemyboyfriend

    Why would he? He doesn’t put his hand over his heart for the national anthem either!

    He puts no God before himself!

  • Tess

    Okay, it’s not OT for the comment above, BUT
    you know all those MSM guys/gals are either negotiating or have already negotiated tell-all book contracts on the 2008 campaign. Let’s make a pact to buy none of them. Revenge is sweet.

    SCHADENFREUDE!

    Petition started by angry people at the inauguration who got stuck in the “Purple Tunnel of Doom”

  • http://www.hillaryorbust.com Hillary or Bust

    Ooh, here’s a telling comment:

    12:15 pm PST, Jan 21, Jessica Beckett, Washington
    I am devastated, emotionally and financially. I spent what should have been the greatest moment of my life sobbing bitterly in a pub. I spent all of my savings to see the final fruits of my labor as a Field Organizer for the campaign, and thanks to the PIC’s gross incompetence, my heart is broken. It is now clear (as it should have been throughout the campaign) that I was important only as long as the campaign was getting something out of me. The moment you no longer need me, I am tossed aside like so much garbage. Of course, I’m too poor to buy tickets to your expensive inaugural balls, even if I’d had the opportunity. Hell, I’m now officially too poor to pay my rent for next month. I don’t blame Obama. I know he will be a great president. But I have lost any illusions that this campaign, and now this administration, cares about my work and my sacrifice. I have never felt so betrayed. I would have done anything – did almost everything – for President Obama. Were the cynics right all along? Is this the “change” we were working for? Oh, and Mr. Gaines: to call us “discombobulated” demeans us. If I ever have the pleasure of meeting you, I plan to stuff my purple ticket down your throat – assuming you ever get you head far enough out of your ass to do so.

  • AMERICA R.I.P.

    Yes HOB, but it’s the typical meme…”Obama’s not to blame.” Wonder how long that will buy him time.

  • http://www.hillaryorbust.com Hillary or Bust

    Amazing that she worked her fingers to the bone for Obama and now can’t pay her rent.

  • Dawnelle

    Well we have to figure that if all of the “Jesse Jackson’s” out there are so ANGRY they would like to cut off his NUTZ than those that are at the lower levels of this whole MESS will shortly be ready to do it for HIM (jackson that is)

    jmo – don’t chit on your friends especially the ones that think they are doing you a favor

    it’s never pretty
