(hint, i bet it doesn't have a p.s. in front of it). do you fly coach? do you stay in holiday inns? hmmmmmmmmmmm

Michael Moore ‘holds Connecticut responsible’ for public option failure


By Daniel Tencer
Progressive filmmaker has called for a boycott of the state of Connecticut if voters there don't start an effort to unseat Sen. Joe Lieberman.

"People of Connecticut: What have u done 2 this country?" Moore asked in a Tweet Wednesday afternoon. "We hold u responsible. Start recall of Lieberman 2day or we'll boycott your state."

Lieberman has been the focus of progressive anger since he announced late last week that he would vote against the Senate health care reform bill if the bill included a Medicare buy-in provision that would allow some people aged 55 to 64 to buy into the government-run seniors' health care program............


and you big bag o' wind get this...............


................."Memo to Michael Moore and any other frustrated lefties out there: There is no such thing as a congressional recall. So until 2012, we're all stuck with Joe," writes Eric Kleefeld at TalkingPointsMemo..................

i am seething with anger

black and blue square has ruined the town of west hartford for ME. i no longer go anywhere near the center (with the exception of every once in a while that whole foods if i can't get to the one at bishops corner). the area is now full of scenesters (you know who i'm talking about). i just described them as having designer suvs, designer dogs, designer kids and designer friends. anyone know what the rents of the center stores and/or black and blue square are? i'm sure they're NOT pretty.

plus where am i gonna park my new designer suv any damn way?

i am not a fan of malls either by the way. but westfarms never should have settled.

Westfarms' Owners Agree To $34 Million Settlement With Blue Back

The Harford Courant
WEST HARTFORD — - The owners of Blue Back Square are getting $34 million in compensation for lost revenue, increased financing costs and other losses as a result of the yearlong construction delay caused by a blizzard of 11 anti-Blue Back lawsuits bankrolled by a retail competitor.

Taubman Centers Inc., the corporate parent of Westfarms mall and the mall's majority owner, agreed in an out-of-court settlement last week to pay its $26.8 million share of the money by today.

The negotiated settlement — Blue Back lawyers were seeking more than $40 million — resolves Blue Back's 2007 lawsuit seeking damages. There is no admission of liability or fault in the settlement by Taubman, which owns 79 percent of the mall, or its four Westfarms partners, who own 21 percent.

The settlement money is being split by the private developers of Blue Back: Raymond Road Associates, BBS Development LLC and Blue Back Square LLC.

The lawsuits postponed Blue Back construction, resulting in a 2007 opening, just as the national economy began to shrivel.

Joe Lieberman the man who personally killed Health Care Reform

Posted by Rack Jite in Politics


Just when we all thought there was a watered down health care compromise that would work - tossing out the public option in lieu of allowing 55 year olds' and up to buy into Medicare - Senator Joe "Droppy Dog" Lieberman on Sunday said NO WAY. This after months of bragging he would personally filibuster any public option in a health care bill.

Lieberman may very well go down in history as the man who killed health care reform out of spite. He is a vindictive little shit of a man who needs to be RECALLED, today.

This being the end of the year it is time for me to decide who gets the Shithead of 2009 award. Not much doubt on who will win, but it is also time for the Shithead of the Decade award. I think he is going to get it. Sure there's Cheney, Rove, W, Beck, Limbaugh, Dobbs to choose from, but I have say all of them were following their ideology.............

i was out an about yesterday


it was raw out and it definitely was rainy. at first it TRIED to snow but it couldn't so it just rained and rained. the windshields were not freezing and i saw cars moving easily up and down the street (from the safe and cozy inside of the half door. when i did go outside for a butt, i saw what appeared to be some kind of accident on the sidewalk. a bicyclist was prone on the sidewalk and not able to get up. the fire department and an ambulance (eventually) arrived to assist. the sidewalks WERE a sheet of ice. i saw a lot of people who were walking about the neighborhood slipping and sliding. i guess some of the roads must have been packed with black ice too. i proceeded home with much caution..........



Mangled Mess in Shelton after 50 Car Pileup
By MIKE SPRINGER and BEN SOSENKO

A 50 car accident closed Route 110 between Wheeler Street and Leavenworth Road in Shelton for over five hours Sunday.

Police say about 50 vehicles were involved in an accident along Route 110 near Indian Wells Road just before 12:30 p.m.

Steve Arena of Shelton's wife was driving one of those vehicles. She told him that she was driving 20 mph when she lost control of her car on the ice and slammed into the car in front of her. She was able to get out of her car, and watched the next car slam into her. Arena arrived moments later.

"As I got around the turn to approach, I thought I was seeing things in a movie," said Arena. "Just cars every which way, mangeled. I mean I've never seen anything quite like this."

Sixty-two people reported minor injuries and six of those people were transported to local hospitals with non-life threatening injuries, said police. ..............
