For Those Of Us Outside The Bubble

This whole election is . . . .

Well, the same as every other American election. Yawn. It might be hard to believe, but a very large part 95% of the world's population that doesn't live at the center of the universe probably don't even know that America has elections, let alone the personalities involved. The rest probably don't care. That's because nothing is going to change. Yep, we get CNN, and of course you can always watch the other performances on the net, but really. Things are going to change? Sheesh.

Lipstick On A Pig?

Yeah, I know. Obama, you're playing right into their hands. Only these people are allowed to have a -- shudder -- sense of humor. They say something outrageous, it's 'funny'. A leftie says it and you're toast. And the righties are reacting over your quip just as expected -- howling in outrage.They'll be wringing this out for the next few news cycles. C'mon, we have to deal with these folks just like you would with a very, very spoiled child, a spawn from hell, because that's basically what they are. And forget about compromising. Take the Raid to these vermin. Take no prisoners.

ROVE-BOT ALERT

Looks like the RNC has been rallying the feeble-minded & under-employed (unemployed?) to cut & paste Central Command talking points at sites such as this. Are these folks paid by the word or by the number of posts they can do? First we have the illiterate, and slightly loopy elderly gent who is going to vote for the first time in his life. All because of Sarah. Definitely a winner, here. Then we have another new-kid-on-the-blockhead, McTroll, who is playing the old one-note tune -- distraction. You know -- "Oh, yeah, well Obama and McCain voted for it . . . . yadda yadda." Gosh, to a word, the exact same cut & Paste on a dozen other sites. That's all we need to know about you . . . Puh-leese, besides being corny, it's embarrassing. And we can sense your desperation, we can smell your fear.

Big Head Todd & Other N'Yuk-n'yukkers Here

Sheesh, but the mere fact you folks (folken) keep turning up is pretty indicitive of what is happening. I think it's called 'scorched earth' policy by some, and 'poisoning the well' by others -- either way it is definitely the act of desperate losers. At other times you merely piss in the punch bowl, but hey, these are desperate times. It is refreshing to isten to Obama speak about your phony outrage and your clumsy efforts to, well, put lipstick on a pig. You know, the necessity to deflect from the real issues. I'm pretty sure that if you draft enough of your camo-bubba butt brothers and meth-addled soul sisters over at Freekers Republik and Town Hall, you can really put some 'interesting' posts on 'liberal' boards. You know, reduce discourse to smarmy, illogical, illiterate rants. Luckily, I think most people are actually watching the donut this time, and not the hole.

Dog & Pony Show

TRoLLdog11 (odog11)wrote, (righteously and with much-o indignation) awhile back: "Would you attend a church, mosque or synagogue if your religious leader "Priest/Pastor, Rabbi or Imam" subjected the congregation to what amounts as hate speech? Would you brush off this speech as generational or not indictive of your personal beliefs? Would you allow your kids to be influenced by this so called "Religious Scholar" or would you simply walk away and find another place of worship that was similar to your own personal beliefs? I guess to me the answer seems rather easy..."

Speaking of 'hate speech', and places of worship . . .

Dang it dog, Pastor Kalnins (Sarah's friend in Jaysus) makes Jeremiah seem pretty rational to me. Speaking in tongues? Cell-phone conversions? A sanctury in Alaska from Armageddon? Rapture? Sheesh, they even called the terrorist killing of Israelis a divine punishment for not converting to their so-called Christian church (BTW - Sarah sat through that talk -- maybe she was too heavily pregnant to walk out, like most normal folks would).

Odog11 -- talk about a pig in the poke. You screechers will change your tune when, ahem, pigs fly . . .

If you're going to lie, get better at it. And cut with the indignation, already. It doesn't ring true.

Knee-slapper

odog11 comes back with a snappy riposte: "The only qualifications you have in challenging me is that your mother didn't abort you...Hey, that actually felt good...Maybe Carol Fowler was on to something..."

Hyuk, hyuk. No need to 'challenge' you, Homer, as you already appear 'challenged'. Whatever. As the headline says, "New heights of stupidity". It just keeps getting better & better. But can't you guys find some new material, already?? Say hi to Gomer and Aunt May for me . . .

My Bad, odog11

totallyblase wrote, apparently without thinking: "Say hi to Gomer and Aunt May for me . . ."

Silly me, I meant Goober and Aunt Bea. What was I thinking? And did I mention Floyd?
