The Shannyn Moore Show – Live Blogging
It’s Saturday once again, and the imprisoned public airwaves of poor poor KBYR get their time out of the Big House, and into the Yard for some fresh air and recreation. Ahhhhhh….. Sanity.
Lots to talk about this week. What’s on your mind? Health care, that Don Young compares to “bobbing for apples in an outhouse?” Michele Bachmann calling for Revolution on the steps of the Capitol? Mark Begich pointing out that Alaska has great government-run health care that works just fine? Sarah Palin sinking the GOP ship in NY’s district 23? The Great Levi Twitter debacle?
You know the drill:
Live Stream it HERE.
Time: 5-7pm Alaska time, 6-8pm Pacific, and 9-11pm Eastern.
Give a call, and live blog it in the comments!
The number is 907.274.5297. The toll free number (in state only) is 866.610 5297
WHOOOOO!!!!!!!
Well, you can listen to KUDO the rest of the time other than 5-7pm Saturday afternoons, right? That’s what I do…
I’m in the treehouse, got KBYR up and streaming with the silly real estate show…right now it says playing reliable for 100% of users.
THAT’S a major improvement!
Did anyone happen to see Shannyn’s latest post & thread on facebook? Some idiot named Mickey decided to engage in crazy talk. It went downhill from there.
Oooh, I hope Mickey calls tonight.
Just my luck… gotta pick up the cousin from amtrack in stinkycity, pa. Won’t be back until after the show is done.
The stream’s actually been pretty reliable for the last couple of weeks…
Yep, ad scribe, saw it and engaged. I promised myself ages ago not to do that again on facebook and I won´t ever again (for a few months). There is really no point trying to talk to a guy like that. Quoting the bible out of context is okay for him, but if you do it woohoooo, it´s all wrong. Ah well.
My apologies to Shannyn for feeding the troll. Promise I won´t do it again.
Affordable health care is coming.
Have fun during the show!
Don Young looks like something you pulled up out of an outhouse…
Irishgirl is trying to get through.
HELEN!!!
yay irishgirl!!!!!!!!!!!
YAYYYYY!!!!! *waving crazily to Irishgirl*
She’s having trouble hearing Shannyn, but you sound great, Helen! Thanks for the shout out!
I never knew that’s how Jaime’s name was pronounced. Hi Anchorage! Now we have a guy asking about alien abductions. Illegal-type aliens, not the shiny green kind.
Shannyn is schooling him. Go Shannyn!
HI ya Irish!!
Bachmann makes Palin look somewhat… uh… sane?
Oh, it’s a nice break from the C-span health debate.
Oh my God…that was nerve racking or whatever. The line was really bad. And I couldn’t think of anything to say
Crap. The drop-out is starting. Crap.
You did just fine Irishgirl… take a bow.
Had to take a break from C-SPAN … getting frustrated & angry. Thanks for the break, Shannyn – love your show!
I only dropped out for a sec.
We’re getting schoolin’ in reed instruments, now…
Nice to hear your voice, Irishgirl.
Too bad about that connection….
I missed hearing Irish!
What did you say?
Stream’s starting to act up again… REEEEEEEEESH!!!!!!!!!!
Shes blinkin in and out and in again for me now.
Wow! I had no idea how many military people were commiting or attempting to commit suicide. You sure don’t get that in MSM.
troops in Iraq & Afphanistan are on psychotropic meds??? YOW!!!
I can vouch for much of what this man is saying, the mental health wards in my VA are packed to capacity, and my brother’s psyche docs are visibly strained.
The person Shannyn is interviewing has written a book, didn’t get the name, sorry. Says that 18 military veterans take their lives every single day. That over 120 at Ft. Hood have taken their lives, just one at a time. Suicides, people who are desperately need help. The numbers of soldiers medically unfit for deployment, that have been deployed has increased dramatically.
Dar Gimal, (sp) is the author she is speaking with.
ick, fake news commercial!
Lani, not a lot. I gave a shout out to the mudstock in Palmer. Then I fled. The line was awful.
Special Guest on tonights show is Dahr Jamail
There’s a good article at AlterNet about acknowledging soldiers who’ve committed suicide, died after coming home, etc. I hope the link works:
http://www.alternet.org/world/143794/the_victims_at_fort_hood_are_casualties_of_war:_why_won%27t_the_government_count_them_among_the_dead
Shannyn is exclaiming our troops do not have the support when they come home. She is dumbfounded. She had a moment, lol.
The war has expanded to all Muslims, according to a lot of RW blogs. It has turned into a battle of religion. God Lord, get us out of these wars! Damn neo-con agenda!
REEEEEEEEEEESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
caller Paul asking about why people would want to sign up to join military.
Yikes, Dahr is saying 1 in 3 women and 1 in 10 men are sexually assaulted.
Irsishgirl- for what it’s worth, we could hear you fine. In fact, it was pretty loud! Sorry the connection on your end wasn’t better. Loved you voice.
My brother gets seen at the VA whenever he needs to. He has an MRI scheduled for next week, the appointment was made last week. That’s quicker than what I got with my private health ins. (back when I had it)
hmm, apparently blanket party has morphed according to the next caller.
Justafarmer!!
Shanyn, we are not taking care of our military family, period, yet expect so much from them.
I got cut off
Am I the only one here where the stream is going haywire?
What about the people who want out of the military. They are not allowed. They are punished.
When did that happen, Justa?
I got the click….sorry your call can’t be completed….try again
Bryan- it’s cutting out intermittently. ANNOYING. I wish Shannyn would find another station. I understand the feed isn’t their thing, but you’d think they’d find a better service to use.
There are LOTS of sociopaths in the military.
shannyn…your email address? I’m on a different new computer….
Ezra? Timothy? Gary? Gary!
Gary in Park Forest, Illinois!!!!!! I used to live next door to there for almost 20 years!
She reads us here too, justa.
KBYR sucks. And not just because of the streaming issues.
No such thing as *quitting* in the military.
So many young ones enlisted in recent times because the economy is so bad and they were offered huge enlistment,
re-enlistment bonuses that they couldn’t turn them down.
Average re-up was $40 g.
Shannyn’s email: shannynmoore@gmail.com
Darh, those standing up, in protest against international laws they now are being broken, these soldiers are being court marshalled (sp).
going to commercial music ……”these boots were made for walkin”
Dang, some people signing up now for enlisting are those who are far right supremacist, etc. groups who want to partake in killing and get training. Wow, this is a lot to take in.
Shannyn will put links on her web site blog about this.
‘KBYR sucks. And not just because of the streaming issues.’
Besides having Shannyn on, I’m still trying to figure out what’s so smart about KBYR…
I’m just needing an adult beverage now….going to get one….
hot chocolate is nice…but…
Bryan, KBYR is Faux News…Shannyn is the shining light there
Fair and Balanced… to the Lunatic Fringe neocons…
T’row a lil’ amaretto in that hot chocolate, and I’m there!
another Fake news commercial, ick.
Let’s see…
a) Bill Bennett – not smart
b) Focus on the Family – not smart
c) Laura Ingraham – not smart
d) Sean Vannity – not smart
e) Mark Levin – not smart
f) Rusty Humpheries – not smart
g) Jerry Doyle – not smart
h) Eddie Burke – dumber than a sack of @#$%!!!
Smart radio??!!!
Me to Shannyn…… these veterans need a voice, they need a safe place to call in and share their experiences.
Whoops, no time delay. Nice Timothy.
That guy just said the ‘F’ word!!!!! heh heh
I’ll guarantee they didn’t hear that on terrestrial radio in Alaska. They hit the dump button on him…
I love it. People confusing the Taliban with al qaeda. Oh God.
Caller is a moron. Taliban didn’t attack us.
War is not pro life, I so agree.
Exactly! The Hyde amendment is still in effect, what IS this amendment for?
Shannyn
Vote for Stupak amendment is back door way of attempting to change Roe v. Wade
I’m anti-abortion but pro-choice. It drives the right-wingery nuts. They can’t comprehend the concept of not foisting one’s beliefs on others.
Wow. Jackson Browne. That takes me back to high school.
F bomb came through loud and clear on terestrial radio…no delay on KBYR
Bachmann’s statement that it’s governments’s duty to protect life — then why is there still the death penalty in the U.S.?
Jason Leopold (sp) blogging for the past two weeks on health care debate. Says it looks like they will vote tonight. But tight lipped about a motion to re-commit.
The abortion funding issue should not be used as a political football.
Shannyn, Boner Man, lol……..
Boner Man – The Wearer of Snap-On Tools!!!
oh meede, lol
Boner got the Declaration and the Constitution mixed up. That spray-on tan’s dangerous stuff!
No dump button? Another example of ‘Smart Radio’ not being so smart…
Bryan @65…you figured it out!
Blue dogs, Red ticks! Funny!!
Shannyn just stated that the right has taken over the language of women’s gyn health care. It’s time we take it back and start to make sense.
They are not voted in to vote their personal view or their religious views. They represent the citizens and laws for which abortion is legal. The Stubak Amendment is an attempt to make abortion illegal by way of any woman who is involved in the public option cannot have a ‘legal’ abortion as the public option does not support it even if paid for by their own personal money.
The back lane clinics will be brought back to life where women will die.
You can use the F word now, Shannyn.
strangelet…was that you just now?
Go Shannyn–no publicly funded Viagra! Hip, hip hooray!
Go Shannyn!!
Paul Hip music coming into the show, one of Shannyn’s fav, on her tv movie next week?
love you Shannyn, on our tax dollars going towards the blue pill if they are going to place uterus police with women.
I think we should propose the Tupac Amendment, and put a cap in these right wing hypocrites’ asses.
Just got sent to moderation for using the V word.
Ok, I’m all for the ban on men’s uppers. It’s to the streets!
HA! Love you guys!
Yes the F word is not cool…and not smart radio…
Let’s find out who voted for the Stupak amendment and vote for the primary challengers. Killing women is not ok.
OMG, what a lie of a commercial re healthcare!
Did anybody catch the ‘paid for by ____’ part?

Blue dogs, Red ticks! Funny!!
yes, Shannyn said the saying is lay down with blue dogs wake up with red ticks.
Me, yuck, red blood sucking infectious life sucking buggers.
MonaLisa – that group just wasted their advertising dollars running that ad during Shannyn’s show.
Steve is an eejit….
Steve is a nitwit neocon chooch
If men could get pregnant, the abortion rate would sky rocket.
This guy is talking like women have an abortion giving it the same thought like they change underwear.
Another hypocrite. He wants to impose his views as law on others.
Get em Shannyn!! Yes!
I so agree, ask him to answer the question.
Steve couldn’t answer Shannyn’s question… COWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If men could get pregnant, there’d be drive-thru clinics.
Libertarian my @$$
Watching congress vote on healthcare–Repug tried to derail the vote introducing tort reform…looks like defeat with only 72 seconds to consider the motion..keep you posted
I think Steve needs to be raped and impregnanted and then come back and talk about it
Dump this clown Shannyn PLEASE…
Last minute tort reform motion defeated.
Let’s get to the meat of health care!
steve is an asshole!!!! he is NOT paying insurance premiums to pay for abortions!
This guy is a jackass.
Shannyn, (((((hugs)))))
13 Dems voted for tort reform 3 Repubs voted against…motion fails.
That’s right Shannyn!!
Steve is a bum!
Bill vote is going to roll call…15 minutes to vote…come on guys! Vote for it!
Take care Shannyn. God Bless…
Shannyn,
I’ll leave you with a vision for when you go for your adult beverage:
Boner Man — The Wearer of Snap-On Tools!!
Passion on Shannyn…….
Bye Shannyn! Good job!
I think House healthcare vote is going on now. 23 dem Nay votes right now.
Steve’s an idiot that only THINKS he’s thought it all through.
Steve was probably cheerleading the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and he probably salivates everytime someone is put to death….
yeah…he’s pro-life alright…
These “pro-life” people don’t get it. I have been debating them a lot, and they still don’t get it. Here is a good biblical based argument that defeats them:
http://www.elroy.net/ehr/abortion.html
Loved the show! Keep it up Shannyn!
13 minutes away from knowing the outcome of the vote……
The vote is happening right now…

Congress votes for the healthcare reform bill–Republicans voted in goosestep, none voted for the Bill….dems broke ranks(too many nays)…BILL PASSES…219-215– outstanding votes…one Republican voted for it—one Dem not recorded yet.
Not passed until the gavel comes down. Someone can change their vote.
1 Repub vote!!!
Great show, Shannyn!
Healthcare reform is alive!
One republican voted yes
Correction—220- 315—Final Vote!
oops—220 – 215
Two minutes until the vote closes.
Now we work on unseating all those who voted ‘Nay”.
do we know the republican?
Waaaaaaaaaaah Hooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
snowe I assume, but..
Tim Johnson (R) IL or Joseph Cau (R) LA
lol, conflicting reports…
Armed American radio dot com is on now? ARMED, trained, concealed weapons and the benefits of?
Freedom patriots and fighters…….stay and fight the good fight.
Boodog
If the rumours are right, he is from Louisiana
Everyone from Idaho please call Walt Minnick and rip him a new one for voting against health care reform.
39 Dems voted no…tomorrow will tell us who we need to target next. My guess, Southern Dems…but hey, that’s why I moved to North Carolina! (Tee Hee)
It was Cao from LA
sorry, house vote. i’m tired
Boodog—we’re counting on you to recap the Senate vote—Snowe is “iffy”!
Yahoo!!
I’ll giver her a call..
Yea, for our President!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blue Idaho

I call or email ‘em all, even if I don’t live there! NO ONE has the right to affect my rights!

Lieberman is off the hook until the Senate votes on their bill….but I hope the other senators have told him how much he’ll miss his chairmanships if he doesn’t get in line.
I can’t believe a rep from LA voted yes
Me, too also R’ipley
Boodog—should I take her a bottle of wine?
Califpat–rubber room? Or rubber in the room? Too late for that!
I need more wine…………….
two bottles and flowers might do it. oh wait- CHOCOLATE. that’ll do it!
Cassie, she is definitely going to have to have a room with with rubber walls because she is going to be bouncing off the walls. Hopefully there is no ruber! LOL!
rubber
If I’m reading Huffington right, Cao supported Boehner. I think it was Johnson from Illinois who voted Yea.
‘Rep. Timothy Johnson (R-Ill.), an obscure member of the party, was the lone Republican to vote against the GOP plan. The purpose of doing so was unclear. Speculation had surfaced on Saturday that, if there were one Republican defection, it would have been Louisiana Republican Rep. Joe Cao. He ended up supporting Boehner.’
@ cassie jeep pike palin
My bad. You are correct! It’s late here……. Perhaps I need to make a phone call to his office before his big chance.
Bill Owens…the new Democrat in NY#23 for the first time since the 19th Century cast the 218th YEA vote…
Thanks Sarah!
C-Span is reporting Cao as the lone republican.

______________________________________________________________________________________
That is WAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY too rich! I love it!
yea, thanks $P!! Don’t feel bad ripley, I did the same thing- mudstock’s are tiring!
I’m late to the party – watched CSPAN until the end of the vote but called my sister in Canada to discuss. Boodog – glad to see you holding up the mudpups name from our state
Does this mean it really passed? Do we still need a Senate vote? Sorry, but this Canerican isn’t totally conversant in either country’s laws….
So sorry Shannyn…I’ve been obsessed for the past five hours of this Congressional debate and vote.
Retrospective: I hope the American Bar Association remembers Eric Cantor’s last ditch attempt to derail this legislation on the backs of attorneys and their clients, and IMHO ( as the parent of 2 doctors and an engineer and a playwright) if you can’t do the job RIGHT, you shouldn’t be in the profession and if you insist on staying there, you are fair game to the legal system!
Patient rights! To hell with the insurance companies!
I just noticed something odd – my comment above #182 shows 8:08pm but my clock on my computer and phone shows 8:47 now (so maybe a difference of no more than 5 minutes) – thus, some clock is incorrect. Not sure it is important, but maybe if any of these comments are historical (rather than hysterical – sp?)…
1smartcanerican Says:
_____________________________________________________________________________________
I prefer hysterical!
Poolman,
I stand corrected as Huffington had it wrong and has since updated it.
Cao from LA was the lone Republican to vote YEA!!
P.S. my computer says 11:53. Check the post time?
Oops…that’s EST.
Whatever……………….
I hear the Repub tantrums. The loud stomping of feet. Steele is to be talking on CNN shortly. That’s worth an adult beverage — make it a double!
Cassie,
The comment time is off. I just posted the above 8:21 post time at 8:57 my computer time.
Hi 1smartcanerican! thanks for such a great time today, I hope I didn’t come back here too late. You still here?
Boodog, I am still here! It appears that maybe I should have been listening to Shannyn rather than CSPAN – hard choice tonite.
I’m glad that you survived your trip through the tubes safely. BTW, the NZ libation was excellent
it is so perfect that Bill Owens was elected despite Sarah’s blessing and money…shocking…ha! According to some vote calls he was #218 which was the passing vote.
XOXOXOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Ha, the spy wine? glad to hear that! (only 2 accidents on the way home- pretty scary tho.
Johnson (R-IL) voted NAY on the Repo alternative, but also NAY on HR3962.
Cao (R-LA) voted YEA on HR3962.
Owens —hahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!!
Going to a well deserved rest tonight—I need to do brunch for 8 in the morning—kids will do that to you.
I leave you with this about the Congressional vote: I was singularly unimpressed with MOST of the Republican speakers tonight…no passion, no position, nothing but poison. At least the Democrats had humor, passion, and a proposal.
Kurt Vonnegut said that the most disappointing thing about turning sixty (many years ago) was that the world was being run by people you went to high school with.
I hope Michelle Bachmann’s lei has begun to wilt…and that Sarah’s star will soon fade.
( no, I didn’t have 2 accidents- saw 2. boy, time for bed)
Very funny but risque video featuring a s*x toy playing the part of our dear Sarah! Good for laughs after a stressful evening watching the health care debate.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHNuYTeLBhs&feature=player_embedded
All in all, this has been a pretty good day. We had a Mudstock here, the party ended with a rainbow, Boodog was not involved in the accidents on the way home (thankfully), and we have hope of health care of all (truly, maybe most?). BTW, it was great to “meet” some the the AK mudpups online – sorry our camera did not work. Slipstream, you look great in blue
Thanks Jaime for making this work for us. And thanks AKM for popping in before we had to disband our small Mudstock. We had both Brenda and Brian, good snacks, and a fun time. We watched some of CSPAN when we liked the speaker and turned the sound down and booed when Joe “you lie” appeared!
I just want to say thanks to all the mudpups and to AKM in particular for making this a place to laugh, enjoy one another, and to see great pictures!
The NY Times has a great interactive map with the votes from tonight. I checked the votes and wrote one Thank-you email to my rep, Jim Cooper, and one Shame on you email to a rep in a neighboring district. The map is on the front page tonight. They usually keep the these maps on the Politics page for awhile.
Thought some might like a good source of information for that target list. Do we have three more votes to go? I think it’s the Senate vote next. Then they reconcile the two bills and they go back to both for final votes.
Here is the breakdown of the vote on Health Care Reform in the House. I am proud to to say that all five of the Arizona Democrats , despite initial negative reaction in a couple of the “blue dogs”. all voted FOR the bill’s passage. Mitchell and Giffords were both initially opposed to the bill, but listened to their constituents when we demanded the reform. Grivalja led the caucus of 65 House members who were consistent in their demand for a Public option, and my own Representative, Ed Pastor, who was a member of that caucus from the beginning. Kilpatrick said nothing until she had listened carefully and weighed all sides of the issue, and committed herself to the bill once she was sure. The breakdown of the other state’s representatives is at the URL below. Not all have what states they represent, but It is a start to tell you whether praise or censure is in order.

Gramiam, I am stuck with Shadegg. Did you see his idiot self using his grand daughter Mattie as a prop? He’s got to go. Along with Kyl and McCain, of course.
@208 Poolman — Not his granddaughter. He actually started out by saying she isn’t. Nobody knows where he got the kid.
Poolman, the baby belongs to one of his staffers. How low is that!! You have any decent Democratic candidates who plan to oppose him?
As for McCain. I am on my knees nightly praying for a teabagger move to unseat McCain. All we need is a bunch of crazies to go after Johnny Maverick and stand back and watch the fun! Then get the Democrat up front to look all intelligent. As for Kyl, we are stuck with him until 2012. I voted for his opponent in 2006 but too many voted for him. All we can do for the moment is make him lonesome!! My names for the remaining Republican Congresscritters? Huey, Dewey and Flakey!
