Suburban Republicans are…FLIP-FLOPPERS!

ManchuCandidate August 12, 2008 at 9:03 am

This whole war between Jorga and Roosha was started by NeoCon prodding apparently. Yeah a nation whose tiny military is designed for internal security taking on the Rooshin Army, one of the tougher armies of the world and a proponent of the combined arms doctrine. Uh huh. You know, for a bunch of dickless fatassed dweebs enamored with the concept of armed conflict, the NeoCons really truly suck at it. Makes Napoleon III look like Alexander the Great.

Dramatist August 12, 2008 at 9:07 am

Michael Phelps is too long-waisted to be representing real Americans at the Olympics. I bet he’s actually representing some foreign exotic place that doesn’t actually exist, like Hawaii.

tsunami August 12, 2008 at 9:13 am

yeah, ok…so russia is pasting some little country. what else is new?

but…john edwards…

just once i’d like to see a picture of a woman that one of these dickwad
politicians is fukking on the side and think…

holy freakin’ crist…what a babe!…i’d do her laundry and grocery shopping
just to be around her. what a raving beauty…i understand completely.

just once.

Cheryl Bernales, a 29-year-old economics teacher who voted for Bush in 2000 and 2004, said that she could face a pay cut “because the economy’s so bad,”

Yet another fine example of our public school system.

Larry Fine August 12, 2008 at 9:27 am

Micheal Phelps doesn’t have a face that Madison Avenue wants. Maybe a face to sponser the Special Olympics.

rev_matt_y August 12, 2008 at 9:30 am

[re=57308]ManchuCandidate[/re]: They’re enamored of it BECAUSE they suck at it. They are so delusional that they *think* they’re brilliant strategists when in fact they have been wrong about, oh, let’s see, everything ever. If a neocon says it, you can bet that it’s not true.

Serolf Divad August 12, 2008 at 9:30 am

OK, I’ll be the one to say what we’re all thinking: Donna Rice was so much hotter than Rielle Hunter.

Serolf Divad August 12, 2008 at 9:35 am

BTW, guys, as Reagan proved when he invaded Grenada and G.W. Bush proved when he invaded Panama: superpowers are allowed to invade pissant little “sovereign” nationlets any time they like for whatever the fuck reason they want and that’s just the way it is. All this “Oooh, aaah look at those nasty old Russians picking on a tiny defenseless neighbor” hoo ha is just wasted breath.

Is there an “Urban Republican” we don’t know about?? What was the need for the classification there?

Darehead August 12, 2008 at 9:37 am

[re=57310]Dramatist[/re]: Michael Phelps also has Size 14 feet and flexible ankles, which are veritable human fins, and he can withstand long periods underwater, so he could be representing a human specimen from a future globally warmed water world.

And by crazy random happenstance, another American also present in the Watercube yesterday provided an atavistic reminder of another aquatic creature of the past, one we evolved from: duckfaced, unable to walk like a human, with scarred arms that were unused to human motion. This duck has been featured in history books as wearing a uniform but no pants.

And what a priceless photo-op when they met: aquaman of the future meets prehistoric duck-ape.

Godless Liberal * August 12, 2008 at 9:40 am

I wonder if she wore the jester hat when they…you know.

Darehead August 12, 2008 at 9:41 am

[re=57324]Larry Fine[/re]: He one-upped Madison Avenue by going on a few Asian tours; he’s one of the most recognized and sponsor-worthy faces in China and Japan…oh wait…his feet maybe are more famous. And wing span. Naaah. Actually he’s well-liked. The 1 out of 300 million Americans who actually is. (please don’t blow it, Michael….)

Better a jester hat than a beret. What is it with Democrats and crappy hats? If I start wearing a wizard hat, will a Democrat presidential hopeful grope me too?

Darehead August 12, 2008 at 9:47 am

[re=57342]valobama[/re]: Asians don’t know that! I just hope he passes his pee-test for the Olympics. Why do they always report those 2 years later anyway?

Hmmmm, and now that you mention it, mehbe Bush is evolving into McLame.

>> Moscow’s actions had “substantially damaged Russia’s standing in the world,” Mr Bush said.

Ha ha. Where to begin.

WadISay August 12, 2008 at 9:51 am

Rielle Hunter is a dire one-woman morality tale: you spend your youth partying hearty for a decade, do every drug known to medicine and screw everything that walks, crawls or grows in a garden, and by age 44 you end up…looking pretty OK.

[re=57336]Darehead[/re]: Hmmm. Long waisted, AND size 14 feet…I proudly volunteer myself to bear the elongated spawn of Aquaman, and help dilute the short-fingered-vulgarian gene pool that has apparently overtaken your once great country. What’s a little waist-to-hip ratio between friends?

She can get away with wearing a hat like that because everyone would be looking at her ass. Which makes sense. If I hadn’t been directed to look at it, I probably wouldn’t have noticed her hat.

Rielle’s hairdo weirded me out at first, but it’s grown on me. That’s the benefit of the 24-hour news cycle, I suppose.

Elitist Republican Tard August 12, 2008 at 9:58 am

[re=57335]magic titty[/re]: There are three types of Rebublicans:

1. The rural, gun-totin’, tooth-missin’, pickup-drivin’, ethanol-subsidy types
2. The suburban, climate-controlled, SUV-driving, baby-making, magnetic-ribbon-sporting types
3. The urban, Mercedes-driving, slicked-back hair, pinstripe-suit wearing corporate asshole types

Type one favors candidates such as Jesse Helms and Big John Cornyn. Type two brings you your Tom Delays and most of your closet gays (with help from the type-ones). Type three is Mitt Romney and similar clones.

(Tomorrow, we will delve into the three types of Democrats – hippies, blacks and bitters)

[re=57357]Elitist Republican Tard[/re]: But don’t you see, these “3″ types will all use bits and pieces of the ‘other’ two parts when necessary to form their worldview, rhetoric, and general dickishness.

I still believe there is only one type of Republican – those variations are usable bullet points when caught in a jam. Or election.

As for Democrats, you’re very correct. But never forget ‘The Jew’.

Darehead August 12, 2008 at 10:14 am

[re=57358]Doglessliberal[/re]: Those are gills.

WadISay August 12, 2008 at 10:15 am

[re=57357]Elitist Republican Tard[/re]: I count four types of Dems: VW Microbus, limousine, clapped-out pickup, and pimpmobile.

Elitist Republican Tard August 12, 2008 at 10:19 am

[re=57365]magic titty[/re]: I don’t know, they’re pretty different. Can you imagine Mitt Romney at a Friday-night dirt track race?

And, I must also add to the democrat types the elitists. Someone’s gotta donate to those NPR campaigns right?

So, the dems have hippies, blacks, bitters, The Jews, and elitists.
Repug’s have rednecks, exurbinites, and fat cats.
Ron Paul takes the loonies, crazies and morons.
Ralph Nader . . . um, yea nobody likes Ralph Nader.

Rielle Hunter is the anti-hot, which, come to think of it, is a good way to camoflage your mistress. I’m still waiting for pics of the biker chick cleavage queen the Canookie one mentioned in a previous thread. Alas, an image search on Google of ‘biker chick cleavage’ doesn’t turn up any scandals in Canada, instructive though it was.

[re=57375]Elitist Republican Tard[/re]: If Mitt was the Repub nominee, he’d damn sure be swilling mash liquor in an Alabammmi outhouse as we speak. Trust me.

Sad but true fact: rednecks and fat cats win elections. I’m now morbidly depressed.

[re=57357]Elitist Republican Tard[/re]: All of you forgot da fundies!!! Allow your resident theologian to explain it:

McCain’s fundies put the “fun” in fundamentalist cuz they like their sinnin’.
Ron Paul’s fundies put the “mental” in fundamentalist, which needs no explanation.
And they are both joined by “DA”!

Serolf Divad August 12, 2008 at 10:40 am

[re=57395]Darehead[/re]:

Yup, the fundies are the GOP’s secret weapon: glassy eyed know-nothings raised on the Book of Job and theBook of John (revelations) to believe that you’ve got to stick the the GOP no matter how badly they fuck you, and the more their candidate destabilizes the Middle East the closer Jesus is to coming back!

Darehead August 12, 2008 at 10:49 am

[re=57401]Serolf Divad[/re]: Exactly, which explains all the Obama-lovin’ McCain ads showing Barry as the Anti-Christ.

We’re all used to those types, however, and tho’ they are loyal to the GOP, they hate McCain. So IMHO, the revolutionary “defectors,” the Paultard/Constitution Party fundies, are the “Gold Standard” winners of the Lunatic Olympics this year. …truly mental.
