Does “Compromise” mean that the Demrats fold?
LATimes, tell us what we didn’t know about Teddy S. The guy threw plenty of temper tantrums in the Senate Chamber if he didn’t get his pweshious way. I’m not shocked that he held his breath and turned blue when someone gave him the bill. No wonder Repukes can’t handle money. If I got comped and “specials” all the time, I’d spend my way into bankruptcy, too.
The Stevens trial has all the earmarks* of a truly entertaining event. Crazy old man, exotic dancing, lobbyists, senior senators on the stand. This could be interesting.
* – I crack myself up sometimes
[re=104277]Delicious[/re]: ummm… that’s kinda dangerous for the people on that list, isnt’ it?
I hear today is “take your Vice Presidential candidate to work Day” at the UN.
[re=104281]Johnny Zhivago[/re]: is that shit legal? I’ve been asking all week> i mean i thought you had to be a senator or something! This chick will embarrass the US . Are they serious? please explain this to beforemy head explodes!
I’ve learned you never ever antagonize hackers. That’s kind of like showing a TSA numbskull your fingernail clippers. Get ready for pain
Send Ted to prison, where he can encounter a whole new series of tubes.
The poll of the day data showing nearly neck and neck results, only reinforces my utter amazement that the McCan’t supporters and undecideds still don’t get it. Let’s assume BHO has the upper hand on the economy, and concedes the other upper hand on foreign policy to McWackjob. Don’t these people see that the failed domestic economy jeoprodizes what slim threads of world cred and national security McSame claims credit for? Don’t they also see that he is directly responsible for the demise of our status here, and therefore, abroad? Domestic and foreign are one and the same, and it’s up to BHO to pound that home, no matter how many muppets pop out of McHoover’s pants during the debates.
“Hey, hobos. Remember when we floated you a mortgage that we KNEW you couldn’t afford, just to churn paper to a third party at a profit, and then we turfed you from your homes?
“Ha, ha. Those were the days. Good times….
“Well, listen. As a result, now somebody wants to foreclose on US, on OUR institutions and we can’t let that happen or very bad things will happen to you hobos.
“We can haz a trillion now? Hey, no, no, no. There can be no debate or discussion, ‘coz we’re important people and we’re in a hurry, OK? Like, just give us the fuckin’ money or the sky will fall in on your hobo camps. No, you DON’T get a receipt, and no, we’re NOT gonna tell you where the money goes.
“Of COURSE you can TRUST us. I mean, what’s NOT to trust about our sterling track record of achievement?
“Uh, can you fuckin’ speed it up countin’ out our cash? Yeah, make it snappy because we’re in a hurry, OK? In return, we’ll let you burn bags of bad paper in your hobo campfire, just so you can keep warm. I’m telling you, it’s a fuckin’ bargain.”
[re=104277]Delicious[/re]: Ha ha ha, do you think the feds are going to go after this hacker too?
[re=104281]Johnny Zhivago[/re]:
Yeah. That got a good snicker out of me this morning.
[re=104283]lilblackcorvette[/re]: One of my clients is entertaining a certain Central American preznit at his home in NY today and he’s no diplo himself; just a gazillionaire member of the (former) ibanking establishment. Your head will probably still explode.
hills did really well on Morning Joke today.
[re=104288]Canuckledragger[/re]: Canada is going to start building a wall along their border I thing
[re=104288]Canuckledragger[/re]:
Isn’t it aboot the time that you people sneek in and take over.
Pleeeease.
It’s true. My Barry needs some work in the debating department. But right now, he’s practicing against an napping elderly Obama staffer. It’s hard speaking over snores. (rimshot,tssssss!)
“___________________ gets hysterical when (s)he has to spend his/her own money.”
In the blank insert the name of anyone from the great welfare state of Alaska.
[re=104293]lilblackcorvette[/re]:
Yeah, she kicked ass. Whenever she’s on TV is merely reinforces the extent to which Palin is a sad, sad joke played by a cynical John McCain on the American people. I’m an Obama supporter, but not a Hillary hater. It’d be fine by me if she gets her chance again one day.
“Rubico posted under his handle, and there was a link in his name to the e-mail address “rubico10@yahoo.com.”
It took one Google search, the same way Rubico compromised Gov. Palin’s account in the first place, to connect it to Kernell.”
LOOK OUT FOLKS, WE’RE DEALING WITH PROFESSIONAL HACKERS HERE
Jeez, I wish you radicals would STOP with all the class warfare bullshit.
Raggin’ on poor Ted Stevens, just because he used Other People’s Money to buy stuff and then forgot to declare that cash as a taxable benefit… How’s a guy supposed to remember all that stuff when he has so much of his own money he never has to spend? Give the poor guy a break, wouldja?
And all those poor victims of the Wall Street meltdown; why can’t you spare a kind thought for them? Do you REALIZE that some of them will now have to sell off one of their numerous homes, just to afford their caviar? Don’t you KNOW that some children will now have to attend second-rate universities in the USofA because their parents can no longer afford the Sorbonne? Have you no EMPATHY for those poor money managers who might now have to relinquish the keys to their private jets?
When DID your hearts grow so cold and mean and miserly?

Not only are they not spending their own money, you can also hear them lecturing about being rugged individualists, living on the frontier, etc. Cashing those government checks kinds negates that, don’t you think? When someone mentions the term “welfare state”, we know which of the 50 they’re talking about.
I’m generally in favor of using peaceful negotiation rather than FORCING people to do stuff. But if we can draft kids and FORCE them to go shoot communists in Vietnam, and we can arrest minorities for smoking pot and FORCE them wear orange jumpsuits and pick up litter on the side of the highway, then why are we wasting time talking to investment bankers about fixing our economy? Can’t we DRAFT them or ARREST them and send them to Maine to chop firewood all winter?
[re=104277]Delicious[/re]: Wow, those dudes are “premium” subscribers to Bill O’s porn site. They pay money to get some sort of extra… I can’t imagine, the mind boggles.
[re=104281]Johnny Zhivago[/re]: It’s true. i work on 33rd St. There are all sorts of Secret Service types all over the place. Apparently the gang is all here or en route. Bush, Palin, McCain, I heard even Ahmedinejahd was scheduled to make an appearance.
Nevertheless it makes going out to smoke a joint on my lunchbreak a little bit more difficult.
[re=104319]Canuckledragger[/re]: Thank you for the link to the article. I remain misty-eyed after reading it.
