@onthebeat

For the record, Palin did not win the debate with Biden. Maybe she won in your head, while you were busy trying to pick up a stray drumstick from the floor, while still managing to win first place in your rockstar video game. But the truth of the matter is, she forfeited "winning" when she was asked a question, told the audience she'd heard the question, but wasn't going to answer it because she'd rather talk about somethin' else. That's a FAIL by any objective standard.

You don't win elections and then quit halfway through your term, even if you can make more money by pretending to write a book then going on tour to trash the very person who put you on the map.

Like your "Ann Coulture", Palin is just another (of the few) pretty faces (some believe) behind a goddamned evil propaganda campaign against the interests of the very people she purports to care about. Sarah Palin is selfish and it shows.

Narcissism is not only ugly but it will also take its' toll from her in the end. Mark my words.

@captcrisis

That'd be like saying, your cousin went missing then turned up dead, and you believe it was this one guy (that you never really liked anyway). Then despite the fact you have no evidence, you go out and kill that guy.

That would be murder. Which is what that asshole Roeder just admitted that he did. Believing something doesn't make it true.

Ever seen "Mystic River"?

Gossip

Engagement (can be) is good. RR is definitely up for that.

He's also the most civil (agreed) and non-mean-spirited (disagree) conservative (not) poster on the site. He's just got a jones for the ex-gov. (agreed times two)

She'll just hurt him, too.....(no way because she can do no wrong)

Friendship?

Really ? Never crossed my mind. I'll have to think on that.

OK. The first thought I had was: engagement.

Maze was the second.

@ D

i am not at all kidding, you know. so yeah. it is super-weird (wired) and oh so wrong. i'd be scared, if i thought i couldn't kick the holy shit out of him were he to show up at my door one day. lol

to the topic at hand -- i'm just wondering, y'think Senator Reid can make it happen? because if he can't i would sure enjoy a good filibuster.

unfortunately, accurate reporting that makes sense to many of our fellow citizens is in short supply. i understand that the more the press reports 'resistance' to the passage of the bill, the more people begin to doubt themselves, and begin to accept the status quo. it is my hope that many of us fight to stick together on this.

Diable4; DWG

I once replied to r2 that everytime I began to read his postings, I pictured some grandma~like woman; knitting something as she rocks back and forth & speaking in a school-marmish type voice. He laughed and said he found it amusing.

Super fuckin' weird. Because of course, I was picturing Norman Bates as his dead mother, in that scene.

Action Item! re-do & thanks

"All 39 Democrats and 176 Republicans, who opposed access to health care for their constituents, should be pressed to give up their Congressional Health insurance.

They should follow the example of Senator Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio)--an all out supporter of comprehensive health care reform-- and refuse the health care benefit they receive.

No health care for others then none for these legislators who oppose health care for others. Let them purchase their health insurance on the market place. They need that experience to be awakened to the lives of others.

-- David Cohen, Washington"

This is exactly what I believe also.

Every single house critter who voted no should forfeit their government-run, tax-payer funded health care insurance, and I mean immediately. It is so simple a proposition, how could they refuse ? I want an answer to that question. I want to know why they believe they are entitled to their health insurance and the people they purport to represent are not.

How can there be such a disconnect ? Does money truly make a person deaf?

@pacificwhim

right on. explicitly; leaving nothing implied. implicitly; not directly expressed.

i like to think that sometimes people use words they don't know - on the surface. but deep down, maybe they do.

"loose" as in cannon and not canon. there is no reason i can see for her misspellings.

@pacificwhim

lol at your comment.

i once got into a discussion with my (ex)husband over his continued use of the word "mute" when what he meant to say was "moot". i couldn't put a dictionary in front of him to prove it. he just wouldn't look at it, or he'd change the subject, and the next day he'd be saying "mute".

when all the time, the point was moot.

lol

Liar

"We have purposefully ignored the mean spirited, malicious and untrue attacks on our family". She is such a liar it is no wonder she found herself involved in politics.

Sarah has always gone out of her way to slap that lipstick on and "defend" herself the only way she knows how ~ by makin' stuff up.

She never misses an opportunity to trash those around her; and what comes around goes around. I am lmao at her statement.
