XXX

I saw porn once. Personally, I thought it was a bit over-rated XXX.

Modesty prevents me from commenting on Max Hardcore's work in question ...however,

I believe the broader point Glenn is making is best put forward in my book: The Iraq War and Impeachment of Bill Clinton, Chap. 1; The difference between a blow job and killing people.

bah.

It's a good sign you brought this to my attention, Glenn.

A sign of the times: Dick Morris!'...signs, signs, everywhere a sign. Blocking up the scenery, clogging my mind.'

You've been waxing a lot of philosophic lately, Glenn. Thats a good sign too. :)

Briefly, I mostly believe there wouldn't so many buffoons like Dick Morris clogging up my mind if not for all the loons in power like the Bush cabal. With no might to make right, buffoons will have to return once again to mere buffoonery, as well befits buffoons. ... I can further imagine for buffoons like Dick, it will be like a power vacuum if Obama wins out after all. (I doth hear the sucking sound even now! I just hope sembioidiotic(sp?) relationships can't exist in a vacuum!)

bestirred,

bah.

Is that actual size, Pedinska! (*if so, he can forget about the Max Hardcore film.)

(* o/t who dat messing with bop o's goodcelery! I, too, think it's important to understand bop was in the Nam. I know a lot guys who were ... in the shit too, and every single one them have been deeply and profoundly affected/effected by the experience - in some way, I think they all have some form of PTSD. I must say, Bop is unique in that his (negative) experiences in Vietnam seem to only strenghten his positive outlook ... plus, I think he's got Total Recall, no b.o.)

O hi O,

@ "knowing how fishermen talk".

have mercy, Pedinska. ... then it was an over-statement of the facts!

bah.

ps. Actually, Pedinska, I thought Cheney was describing the size of Bush's brain.

Bee Gee Scripture on FOX News!

I'll have to tune-in more often.

Gibbs is a cool customer alright. HOW*ever, I could barely hear anything Gibbs was saying in the clip because that Hannity needs shock therapy, quick, or he might swallow his own tongue. ...gadsooka, what a bazooka.

...

I will say, McCain strung-togather 2.5 lucid statements during the dbate evening last. I was surprized, too. Maybe he's finally getting the help he so desperately needs.

B.O., or course, was downright ill. ...and I mean that in the best way. Intelligent...thoughtful, fair, considerate, kind and CALM. dang.

You see, that's why I would never make-it as a politician, Glenn. *I'll tell you a secret: I secretly want to throttle Morning Joe. ... sometimes. (is that bad?)

Fair and balanced.

I don't know how a grown person could have been so simple and innocent back in the early, heady days of TNR(Crowley)/NYT, WAPO, etc. reportings, circa 2001, Glenn. It ought to have occured to me, then and there, that people who can talk like that must be foolish or think that I am.

Alas, I was the one. And so even very simple and rudimentary truths were not likely to find their way into my head. It wasn't until a few years ago that I realized Bush was a war criminal.

spinning like a top,

@"There were the Fruitless speculations, interchange of insults, decadent mental-wacky-cases (fruitcakes), wordy warfare jabber-wine-imbibers, strife filled rooms, (envy, weird extempore speeches,) bah."

And that's just for starters ... bop o. odd.

Even so, I say ...'these ruininess wars, these fruitless strifes shall pass away' and peace will come. It is inevitable. ('keep your powder dry, and the world will turn. etc.')

"Speak Well.": Well, it may be true my writing suffers... but my diction is flawless!

Poor John McCain is Forced to run an ugly campaign because Barack Steve Obama would not meet poor John McCain in the Town Hall debates all across this land from sea to shining sea ... like he should have.

So it's all Barack's fault, Glenn. Barack pushed him over the edge and made McCain turn ugly. ... and he didn't have far to push, neither.

Also, it's a wonder McCain even has a sense of humor after all this abuse. Give him all your jokes and nobody gets hurt. ... They don't call him 'hatchet jack john' for nothing.

Yeah, well, let me know when Colin Powell condemns the ugliness of the Iraq war.

The Republicans most vile and ugly act. And, yet, Gen. Powell's main concern now is the lack of civility in our political discourse? hoot.

It's just fine and dandy with me too, Glenn, Colin Powell has the wherewithall - after his rather crucial role in promoting the Iraq war - to point-out that "Arab" and "decent family man" are not mutually exclusive terms. Good on him.

Butt. If Gen. Powell really wanted to help, he should go back to the United Nations, hat in hand, and apologize to the whole wide world for the "false intelligence" he presented there. It was a lie then ...and still is. And, personally, any one who believed waving a little jar of yellowcake around (false or not) is reason for WAR, is the worst kind of idiot. *I recommend Gen. Powell read Baracks eloquent protest of the war as a primer.

I feel better now,

bah.

p.s. I haven't preused the entire comments but:

~ethics_prof. >"smelling rats" ...well, Obama is 'more than honored' to have Gen. Powell's support. B.O. is 'humbled'. Say Cheese. I suppose the idea is to get out from underneath Bush's train wreck as gracefully as possible. Bygones be bygones, and all of that.

~AKA smith/jones >"I am not a Christian. I am a Unitarian-Universalist." ... Yeah, that's what Jesus said too. :)

~C.O. (quoting the Decider) >"As I said Friday, this thaw -- took a while to thaw -- it's going to take a while to unthaw." ... WHAT LANGUAGE IS THIS?

~bop o. playing possum. They've always got something up their sleeve.
