It bears repeating - Please DO NOT Rec this diary, rather rec the Overnight Mothership instead. Thanks in advance. And thank you Garrett for being a mothership lifesaver!

Please be kind to kossacks with bandwidth issues. Please do not post images or videos. Again, many thanks for this.

We continue to bear witness to the ongoing fallout of unfettered corporate greed and malfeasance. We have a lot going on with the LRMP tonight, and hopefully we will have an expert or two drop in to give us some insight.

RECS ARE NEEDED TO KEEP THIS RECLISTED. If you haven't rec'd this mothership, please do so now.

This is the BP Assault on the Gulf of Mexico Mothership, Day Five.

Rules of the Road

Let's keep this a meta diary. To volunteer to host an ROV (submersible) diary, leave a comment here.
For commenting on anything related to the BP disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, please go to the current ROV diary.
Please rec this mothership diary, not the submersibles.
Please be kind to fellow kossacks who may have limited bandwidth and refrain from posting images or videos.

To repeat: please refrain from commenting in this mothership diary, unless you're volunteering for a submersible shift.

hope

i need to dwell there awhile tonight

i need hope

it is the only thing i live on and i am dancing in it tonight
i am rejoicing in hope

running skipping hopping tralala trippingly toppling in hope tonight
every day is one day closer
closer
to breathing
to living
to starting my life anew
to waking up
breathing in ease

i am happy tonight
knowing i am hopeful
love
love
love

I spend a lot of time on DailyKos, it's true. But my real home, where my thoughts and feelings and disjointed memories are placed, is Livejournal. It's old school, I know. I started my journal over 10 years ago, and came across the story of Eva Markvoort about 2 years ago on the site. Follow me below the fold to learn more about an amazing woman who led an amazing life and who will be sorely missed by those who were privileged to be a part of her journey.

First the bad. Mike Coffman, Republican Secretary of State in Colorado since 2006, was elected to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives from Colorado's 6th District on Nov. 4th. A staunch Republican, he came under frequent fire as Secretary of State for botching elections as well as questionable practices as State Treasurer before that.

This isn't going to be a terribly long diary, but anyone working CO phones tomorrow or working on the ground, there is a way to check if the Secretary of State has received your mail-in ballot.

Dear History. For too long I have been angry. Sad. Disillusioned because of you. I was told, and believed, that America would cradle my dreams. That I had nothing to fear. That if I did it all right, I would reap the rewards. So I did. I went to school. I excelled. I worked so hard. And then it just got harder. And harder. And harder.

I have had so little to believe in these last 8 years. A failed marriage. Lost jobs. Financial heartache. Health problems with no solution. I've never even been close to buying a house. The recession has been a reality for me for a long time. I had to choose between ramen for the kids or a doctor's visit. I pay dearly now for health problems I could not afford then.

Thanks, Bush. Thanks, Republicans. Thanks to you, and your awesome "free market" ideals, I'm out of a job. Just got laid off. 2/3 of the entire company received the same notice. We are planning a big reunion at the unemployment office on Monday. Good times, good times.

Update #4 - Last update. There have been some commenters asking me to post my qualifications for network purposes. While I appreciate the offers, I don't want to do that until all of us Kossacks that are out of work have a chance to do that. It would not be right to take advantage of a diary on the Rec List for this purpose. In that spirit, I hope very much we soon see a Job Board here at DK. Any admins out there want to take this up? Let's have a DK Job Board!

It was another off-the-cuff answer from McCain last night. And Obama had a sound smack down of it. But I have not heard it mentioned in blogs or by the pundits in the post-debate roundup. And that suprises me. What about the spending freeze? This, more than any other proposition, would be devastating to the middle class. Forget the bailout for a moment. A spending freeze? Is he serious?
