So on what will the senators base their decisions? Her "writings"? There aren't any. This will be one rare occasion: when the hearings will be all there is for senators to base their votes on. They may find her vile and reprehensible, or they may find her just ducky. I predict ducky and an overwhelming yes vote. But ya never know.......... gotta wait til the hearings.

The Democrats have been saying for decades that a Republican president would appoint judges who would vote to overturn Roe. It hasn't happened, and while it might with this cipher of a woman on the court, I tend to doubt it. Once these people get the big honor of serving on the court, especially the stealth nominees, they tend to think of themselves as far more important and powerful than they were before. Their chests get puffed up and they have independence for the first time in their lives. Then they act independently. Its happened that way with every stealth nominee.

I thought he totally bitch-slapped the Democrats who were trying to provoke him into saying something they could use against him. There was no probbing questions. For some of them, the simple fact GWB nominated him disqualified him. Look at the vote, it reflects that. This woman is a whole separate can of worms. Cheney saying trust me to Rush? WTF? I think she will be grilled not like Roberts. I am just wonering who is going to ask her if she sympathizes with Gay rights groups since she is a lesbian.

This is useful to me. For example, in my listening environment, after using a pink noise analyzer, I found I need to boost certain frequencies.

This is an interesting story from the TOOboard, thought some folks might want to read it: October 5th Several years ago, we had a semi regular column that we posted here on PhilLesh.net called Conversations. We thought that it would be great if we brought it back to keep the phans updated, as well as having Phil share some of his thoughts on Phil Lesh & Friends. Today's dialogue will focus on Phil's collaboration with Ryan Adams and his upcoming shows at Bimbo's, the Vegoose Music Festival, and the Joint in Las Vegas. Our next episode will give you an inside look into the Shadow of the Moon Winter tour.... Enjoy, J.C. JC - When did you first meet Ryan Adams? Phil - I met him at the Jammys back in May. When they gave me his name as a possible collaborator I bought some of his CDs and started to get excited about the possibilities. When I listened to Rosebud for the first time I wept. JC - It was great getting to see and hear Ryan perform at the Fillmore and Red Rocks with Phil Lesh & Friends. Could you share with us your feelings on that run of shows? Phil - Sure. Got a coupla hours? The shows were exhilarating; Red Rocks was like going back in time to when the music was dangerous. I love those moments when the music is teetering on a fulcrum, not knowing which way it's gonna lean, but, loving the suspense; it's there that our real communion takes place. Ryan and I were like a couple of mad scientists all week, changing things up until the last minute. Jeff Sipe who was joining us for the first time was unflappable as was Barry Sless while Rob Barraco and Jimmy Herring were nervous about how differently I was approaching these shows. They were used to the PLQ approach of having a setlist to rehearse and talking out transitions and parts. I talked to both of them after Denver and they loved playing with Ryan and the freedom he brings to the music. They can't wait to do it again because even though it is scary to truly play without a net, it's also addictive. We all need to come out of the comfort zone to grow, and I think we all experienced the incredible high of exploring new realms. When you get to know Ryan you realize that everything he does is improvisation. He truly lives in the moment- and has the courage to bring that to the music. JC - When you were in Denver rehearsing you and Ryan went out and shot pool in a bar across the street from The Fillmore and then went on to perform a set of tunes during an impromptu surprise show at the club next door. Could you share with us how that came about? Phil - Ryan, Jill, Danny Clinch and myself were getting coffee on the way to rehearsal when we started talking about Red Rocks, It turns out that neither Danny or Ryan had been there, so we decided to get sidetracked for a bit and show it to them. It's a park, so you can just visit when there isn't a show. We got our coffee and piled in the van and headed to Red Rocks. We started at the top of the amphitheatre and walked all the way down to the stage. I loved hanging at the top, looking at the mountains, watching lightning in the distance. When we got to the stage we goofed around- checking the acoustics, playing air bass etc. We were full of that Red Rocks mojo when we headed to the Fillmore. Rob and Jimmy were unavailable for rehearsal as they had a gig in Boulder so it was Ryan, Barry, Jeff and myself. I had given Ryan Wolf to play, and we were right in the middle of "He's Gone" when there was a loud SNAP and the power went out. Everything on stage was out- except for Wolf and his amp! Everyone went nuts trying to get the power back on to no avail- so Ryan suggested we go shoot some pool at the bar across the street. Imagine our delight when we discovered that Sancho's Broken Arrow was filled with Dead posters and deadheads. Ryan and I teamed up against two Heads and played a couple of games of pool. They beat us both times (although the last game was really close). Ryan once again had a great idea- to go get some instruments and play a few songs for the gang. So we walked back over to the Fillmore, grabbed my bass and Wolf, and went a couple doors down to Dulcinea's- the club next door. We spent the next hour and a half playing songs for a large crowd of fans who clapped and sang along with us. It was yet another magical moment in a week filled with them. It was so beautiful and fitting that Wolf, for the first public outting, was played by Ryan, who Jerry would delights in, at a spontaneous free show, in a bar filled with deadheads communing together. JC - Everyone is excited about the upcoming Vegoose shows. The Joint sold out immediately and seems too be an impossible ticket, is there any chance of adding a show or moving it to a bigger venue? Phil - I wanted our late night show to be in an intimate venue and the Joint, at 2000 capacity, fit the bill. We start at midnight and plan to play all night; things should get pretty fuckin out there, 'cause we gonna cut loose a little... We decided not to add a night because we had Bimbo's set already, and I am really looking forward to that gig also. The stadium show at Vegoose will have room for all and we should be all 184c greased up by then. Otherwise look for Ryan and I wandering the Haight looking for a couple of suckers to play a game of pool. The Jumpball Bros. are ready to play and headed your way! ------------------------------ From: "Rogues Island's finest" Subject: Re: Police make dozens of arrests @ Rolling Stones concert.

Bush became president - so he's at least that smart. And it may be that Bush is as good at reading people as some purport, hard to say. Which is to say, Bush may have a geniunely clear handle on Meirs' judicial philosophy, dunno. That said, I'm not convinced that Bush, for all his code-worded rhetoric that is intended to convey to the hard right that he is one, is in fact a strict constructionist who wants strict constructionists to control SCOTUS. It may be that, when Bush (and/or his advisors) looked into the abyss of what appointing another strict constructionist to the Court would really do, and couldn't go through with it, dunno. Or, it may be that Meirs is in fact strict constructionist and Bush knows it, and that's what he wants on the Court. And/or, it may be that Meirs is indeed an "extreme" anti-choicer who will overturn Roe v Wade and that's what he wants on the court. That Christian Right leader James Dobson is supporting her, because of "what I know I am not at liberty to talk about," is a possible indication of either or both of these things. Or, it may be that Bush appointed her simply because she is a Bush crony and a woman, dunno - there are simply too many unknowns here to know with any certainty. > This woman is a personal > attendant to Bush, Cheney doesn't know jack squat about her. Your powers of being able to divine things with such certainty based on so little information is very, um, impressive. > The hearings will tell the tale. Its all there is. That's what senators > will base their decisions on. I agree that it's all there is, and (barring major suprises from elsewhere) that's what senators will base their decisions on. They'll have no choice - that's where most of the information that they'll get about her will come from. But the hearings won't tell the whole story - far from it. Ray _______________________ "To what purpose then require the co-operation of the Senate? I answer, that the necessity of their concurrence would have a powerful, though, in general, a silent operation. It would be an excellent check upon a spirit of favoritism in the President, and would tend greatly to prevent the appointment of unfit characters from State prejudice, from family connection, from personal attachment, or from a view to popularity... He would be both ashamed and afraid to bring forward, for the most distinguished or lucrative stations, candidates who had no other merit than that of coming from the same State to which he particularly belonged, or of being in some way or other personally allied to him, or of possessing the necessary insignificance and pliancy to render them the obsequious instruments of his pleasure." - Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 76 ------------------------------ From: DB Subject: Re: greatest song ever Date: Wed, 05 Oct 2005 14:35:57 -0400 And she is buuuuyyyyyyyinnng a stairway to ............
