Original article: Quote of the morning

Hillary owes Murdoch.

Hillary took a shitload of money from Murdoch at a fundraiser he held for her so now she has to start paying up.

I can't believe that this country is so short sighted as to nominate Hillary Clinton. You say you want to be progressive but you vote for the least progressive candidate on the stage. You say you want to bring this country together and get things done but you vote for the most divisive candidate you can find.

I fucking weep for this country and it's future, I truly do.

Last night as I watched the returns, I got the same feeling in my stomach that I got 7 years ago watching Gore lose. It's the same feeling I got 3 years ago watching Kerry lose. It's also very close to the feeling I get when I watch our current Dem controlled congress do absolutely nothing to make our country better. Calm down isn't in my available moods anymore.

I'm finally resolved to the fact that in my 40's I can finally say I don't give a shit anymore and when you reach that point, it makes you mad.

Now, if I can just get progressive voters to become my neighbors, maybe I won't go postal during the next 4 years of name calling and gridlock and hate.

Going without pay?

Maybe Rupert Murdoch can cover their salary?

Anon 7:17

Go fuck yourself.

You'll never be half the person he was.

Original article: Romney defeats McCain

Romney...another draft-dodger.

Those patriotic, flag waving, bomb loving Republicans sure love their chickenhawks, now don't they.

McCain just makes them look bad. A real veteran who doesn't need to make up bullshit excuses for his draft dodging.

An extra insult, I hear, is Romney spent his draft deferment doing Mormon mission work......in France! Maybe he was getting the recipe for "Freedom Fries". You can't write this shit.

Is it legal to vote twice in the same election?

Superdelegates can vote as an individual in their state primary and then vote again at a later date?

Is that legal?

If it is, I want to be one so I can vote as many times as I like!

When congress gets done with baseball...

...my neighbor has a truck with a really loud exhaust. Can you get to that next? Thanks.

Thursday, February 14, 2008 07:16 PM

Hurray for the Dems!!!!

Only your over a year too late on oversight. Most of the country is sick of you by now so don't waste your energy trying to look like you give a shit about anything. You just look pathetic and rather pussy-like.

Saturday, February 16, 2008 02:30 PM

All this bullshit for a word.

Someone should do a story on the epidemic of "fake shock" that has infected the world.

Everyone needs to stop pretending that they're so enraged by a simple word.

Original article: Fidel Castro steps down

Cuba is not communist.

Cuba is a dictatorship.

Fidel Castro is a self appointed dictator and an egomaniac. This has nothing to do with communism.

Wednesday, February 20, 2008 06:19 PM

Give us some proof.

Speak on the record, provide some concrete proof or shut the fuck up.

There was so much bullshit about President Clinton thrown around that turned out to be false, I'm sick and tired of listening to backroom, off the record accounts of something that may or may not have happened. Tell the truth on the record and prove it or go away.

Thursday, February 21, 2008 08:08 AM

Proof?

Anyone who's willing to speak on the record to McCain's face or has actual proof of some kind? Then shut up and go away.

"Anonymous Sources" means: here comes a bullshit story.

Friday, February 22, 2008 06:47 AM

Even if he could shoot em, he wouldn't.

He wouldn't, cause he's a coward. It's documented. He's a fucking draft-dodging coward just like Ted Nugent and Bill O'Reilly. He's a morbidly obese, drug addicted, impotent, many times divorced, draft-dodging coward.

Can I get a "ditto"?

Original article: Dems condemn Nader

I wish there were 10 people running.

Then maybe one of them would be saying the things I want to hear. Come on Ralph and anybody else who wants to run for president.

2 parties got you to where we are today, stuck in an invasion and occupation with no opposition party to get us out. After the last year of democrats doing nothing in congress I'm ready for almost any alternative.

Fuck The chickenhawk republican party and the spineless democratic party.

Wasn't Abraham Lincoln a trial lawyer?

Those trial lawyers sure are slim, eh Dana?

How appropriate.

Right next to the name "Lindsey Graham" on the letters page is a Yahoo advertisement for douche bags. No joke.

Original article: A vaccine for gentlemen

What's the big deal?

Abstain...get married...have sex only to produce children.

What about the president's plan don't you understand?

Thursday, February 28, 2008 08:15 AM

Too bad he died, but one question...

...where did he get that fake accent from?

Thursday, February 28, 2008 08:19 AM

It's all crap.

Pointing out that his middle name is Hussein is just the 21st century way of calling him a nigger.

It's OK GOP, we all get it.

Original article: Quote of the day

I truly don't understand this Reagan hero worship.

The biggest memory I have of the Reagan-Bush years is that a friend and I were the only 2 people we knew with jobs. Literally. For years.

This is proof that if you say the same shit over and over again it becomes fact. Reagan a good president? Bullshit.

Wednesday, March 5, 2008 05:20 PM

My state isn't scheduled to vote until May.

If the nominee is decided before I have the chance to vote(again), can I whine and cry like Florida and Michigan?

Half the country is usually "disenfranchised" in the primaries by not having the opportunity to vote in them. You don't hear us whining about the candidates the early states pick for us.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 06:48 PM

I'm not concerned about her tax returns.

I am however concerned that she takes money at fundraisers thrown for her by Rupert Murdoch and News Corp.

Friday, March 7, 2008 08:33 AM

Hillary thinks McCain is a better nominee than Obama?

Monster? Maybe.

"Asshole" might be a better description.

Original article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily

Maybe you should ask Joe Torre what he thinks about this.

Hahahahahahahahahaha!

The sore winners of baseball; The New York Yankees.

Again.

Monday, March 17, 2008 08:38 AM

Great.

Another complete bullshitter. 7+ years of listening to nothing but lies and complete fabrications is enough for me.

Go away Hillary and take your ridiculous combat fantasies with you.

Original article: Quote of the day

Someone might like to remind the right...

...that in the last 7+ years, they haven't been right about anything. Not the economy, the invasion and occupation, taxes, the constitution...nothing, all the while adding 4 TRILLION dollars to the national debt and running a massive budget deficit EVERY YEAR since taking control of my government.

And no, I'm not a democrat.

A war criminal finally speaks the truth on network television.

RADDATZ: Two-thirds of Americans say it's not worth fighting.

CHENEY: So.

RADDATZ: So? You don't care what the American people think?

CHENEY: No.

And there you have it. I think the families of all the needless dead should go out and make him care.

Monday, March 24, 2008 06:04 PM

Instead of dinner, how about a more valuable prize...

...like a full tank of gas?
