He's right, you should find yourself a girlfriend, or a boyfriend, or a puppy (not a cocker spaniel) or whatever turns you on, because, as my Grandmother would have said, you are behaving like "A MISERABLE PERSON."
Did you see the towers fall, Walter?
Did that make you happy?
You remind me of the "New Yorker" cartoon: two old ladies in black standing over a grave. One says to the other "I told him it wouldn't kill him to be nice for once in his life, and I was wrong."
At least, hopefully he is reading the helpful posts from Lotus Feet.
I don't understand this big mishigass about him and his father who made some unfortunate comment about Arabs, do you?
"I used to love him but now it's not the same!!"
What's his crime?
Consistently facing up to world wide terrorism while supporting all of your pie in the sky entitlements?
He is not a troll, just an angry drunk
He is the Eleanor Rigby of saloon.com
Sorry, Lotus, this is more saloon than stalin
Walter has drained today's bottle of vodka
He's passed out now
But, he'll be back with his unrequited anger and his nastiness tomorrow
Don't let him bodder you, my fellow open minds
His snark will reappear tomorrow just you wait
At least Eleanor had some reasons to be so desolate and so alone
How about a Michelle booty buns calendar?
They could sell it to help pay the laid off auto workers.
There could be several versions:
-The Christian-Mormon version: $100.00
- The Playboy version: Limited Edition bids start at $1000.00
- The absolute funky wunky nothing left to the imagination version: Only 100 available - private discrete bids only please.
Unlike Walter Map, at least I can admit when I am wrong.
What do you think is wrong with that guy anyway?
I differ with Salon.com much if not most of the time. I even refer to it as saloon.com and stalin.com.
White people are generally clueless about African American sensibilities and this piece takes the cake, focusing on Michelle's nice but irrelevant buttocks.
So, even if these rich limousine liberals don't have the class to apologize, I will apologize for them, because they are too smug and supposedly too hip to apologize for themselves.
You see, they think it is such a big deal that they voted for Barrack and sent him lots of money, that makes them feel entitled to get down like they were funky, and comment on Michelle's fullsome ass-buttocks.
Yes this is horribly racist.
It is.
And. I am sorry for these sorry m.....f's.
He must be the new Lenin or something like that.
Next thing you know, he'll be quoted as saying, "WHAT IS TO BE DONE?"
I'm like the white base drummer in "Drum Line."
Remember him? He said, "I just love black people!"
I think he was one of those rare few: a black person born into a white body, which is why he could drum so well.
My best friend in high school was a white drummer who had really good chops. One day we went to this club in Perth Amboy, where this black band was really cooking, and they let my buddy, Noel, sit in. He did the best he could and they were all smiling at him when the set was done. He made the mistake of saying, "you know, guys, I wish I was black." and they all looked at him like he was crazy.
All my life, it's been like that. In the Army they kicked me and all my black friends out of this MP unit because we didn't fit in. Sent us to infantry to die in Vietnam.
I got kicked out of the Peace Corps in 1963 in Washington DC where I was training to go to the Middle East and teach English. They said we shouldn't go on that march because there would be violence. I went on that march anyway, and it was one of the most wonderful experiences in my life, my friend. It was as big a high as we are all feeling now.
Bottom line: after getting kicked out of the Peace Corps by that white liberal administration I ended up getting drafted four months later and wound up in Vietnam 12 months later.
I'm not complaining. I survived. I survived and then some.
Cheers.
I do not like the corrupt Republicans like Stevens. Most of us don't. But you don't like his most effective foe, Sarah Palin, either, because you are a knee jerk, nasty, leftoid partisan, aren't you?
Remember the Republican pig, Senator Packwood, who used to try to feel up women in the senate elevators? He was drummed out, and so were many other corrupt repugs. Remember how Bill Buckley drummed Pat the Rat Buchanon out? That bigot will never speak at a Republican Convention again.
But you guys are like the teachers' unions, always protecting and even honoring your worst scumbags like that Jefferson guy. The feds found packs of hundred dollar bills in his freezer, and you rallied around him. Remember all the wonderful laws you passed to protect women from sexual harassment? Clinton broke every one of those laws in spades, and lied before a grand jury. Did you ask him to go away the way we asked Nixon to go away?
You are a fraud, mister map.
Next to the wheel, the sliced bread , the bidet, and the flush toilet, wing nuts may be one of mankind's greatest inventions. You don't need a wrench to tighten a wing nut. Wing nuts are easy and great and practical
So, consider it a badge whenever the soul-less Map Rat says wingnut, my frem.
