why the hell he tells me that he'll be at my place at 10:30 and then he doesn't show up until 3:00. Then he does 20 minutes worth of work, installs some cheap PVC pipe, and charges me $300.
This is a free country and you can talk about whatever you want to talk about.
Think of all the McCain stuff we can't talk about...
...such as:
arms
"Joe" the plumber (if that's who and what he really is)
seedy cohorts
preachers
mean-eyed wife
but the horror stories meant nothing to Bush campaign in '00 so the Teflon continues w/McCain.
(I must admit, I have no idea what you were trying to convey with your last sentence.)
Bigoted, ignorant, and stupid. Well done, Republicans. Well done.
Bachmann was well within her rights to demand an investigation into anti-Americanism in Congress. Unfortuantely, freedom of speech is a two-way street and countless (real) Americans have expressed utter disgust with her more-Amrerican-than-thou blathering.
"The woman made a statement about Obama about which any number of people have wondered. Obama seems to have marxist asociations. Think of Frank Marshall Davis who accaording to Obama had an effect upon him, think of Bill Ayers, think of Bernadette Dohrn, think of the Rev. Wright, Father Pfleger, the Revb James Cone."
- There's no shortage of information on any of these people. Just use the tubes of the internets. These issues have been raised and questions asked. If you don't hear the answers that you want to hear, perhaps you are the one with the bias. Do you really think that Right-wing media outles aren't trying to dig up whatever they can? Since they can't find any damning evidence and since they run the risk of getting caught and looking like fools if they simply lie, they keep asking the question hoping that low-information individuals like yourself draw a conclusion simply via the question asked.
"Now the question of members of congess having anti American attitudes, well check it out. Hopefully there are none but who know????"
- Survey says... Rep. Bachmann!!!
And regarding Obama's college days. Agian, do you really think there's a shortage of people trying to dig up dirt? Have you entertained the idea that perhaps there just isn't any significant dirt to be found?
What happens when you get the answers that you demand, but you just don't like the answers because they don't fit the narrative that you're trying to create?
It seems like there's been a steady stream of GOP officials and candidates apologizing for one thing or another lately. That's never good for a party 2 weeks before an election.
Why do the Republicans demand to know more and more about Obama's flimsy "relationship" with Ayers, even to the point where there isn't anything else to tell, but when questions are asked of Republican candidates, suddenly the Liberal Media is Harassing poor little Caribou Barbie?
If Caribou Barbie can't handle the stupid press, how the hell is she going to handle terrorists?
You might want to tone down your rants a bit. You really just come off as an asshole and, frankly, you're not doing your Republican friends any favors.
could certianly use a makeover right about now.
"Let me know when some outrage starts in on the 2 million the Obama Messiah is spending on his election watching party."
Tell you what, ehoudiniman, you keep an eye on that and share when you find something. Meanwhile, you should try to get tix to McCain's victory party while you can - I hear they're going fast.
"In order for the satire to have a real effect, Palin's discomfort needed to be palpable and make the audience squirm. Instead, the surge in "SNL's" ratings only amped up her star power."
I dunno about this. I think the joke was definitely on Caribou Barbie on SNL, even though she didn't seem to realize it. Barbie's lack of discomfort spoke volumes, although one might consider that lack of discomfort on SNL an exercise in horror, not satire, when one realizes that such a lack of awareness is a defining characteristic of a woman who could be VPOTUS and, perhaps ulitmately POTUS.
The ratings were up because people were hoping that she would make an ass of herself.
if Caribou Barbie thinks mooses ran around with dinosaurs.
Oh, and kimbah, I loved your post. Not much gives me more pleasure these days than to see CONservatives come unglued. Enjoy you walk through the wilderness. You deserve it.
"The millions and millions who live away from the urban areas, who get to work before the sun comes up, who have to put off things until next payday."
Next time you write a sentence, I suggest you incorporate a verb. Didn't your home-school program cover that?
Oh, yes, only in rural Real America do people work for a living. People in urban areas don't have jobs. Brilliant. Please, keep this up. Nothing will sink white-trash Caribou Barbie faster than alienating tens of millions of honest hard-working urban Americans.
Say hello to everybody else on the McCain Blog Brigade for us. You people are so transparent.
Chevelle, Tweaker, and Zamboni.
was a series of tubes.
I see the McCain Blog Brigade has you assigned to Salon today. You're wasting your time defending Caribou Barbie here.
That woman's arrogant and condescending acceptance speech was enough to turn most people off. Her poll dumbers have been in steady decline since her roll-out. She couldn't even handle Cheerleader Couric's softball questions - how the hell would she handle the terrorists?
Caribou Barbie might be a genius by Alaskan standards, but that just makes her a big fish in a very small pond.
