- SWEET SWEET BUNNING POLL PORN: Maybe this is why baseball player Jim Bunning started cursing at Jesus that time a reporter asked him about internal poll results: “Political Wire got an advance look at a new Public Policy Polling survey in Kentucky that shows Sen. Jim Bunning (R-KY) with a 28% favorable rating as he attempts to run for a third term. Bunning loses head-to-head match ups with all four Democrats considering a run against him.” [Political Wire]

Ohhh Wikipedia, sometimes you are awesome:
“On December 18, 2008, the Lexington Herald Leader reported that Sen. Bunning’s non-profit foundation, the Jim Bunning Foundation, has given less than 25 percent of its proceeds to charity. The charity has taken in $504,000 since 1996, according to Senate and tax records; during that period, Senator Bunning was paid $180,000 in salary by the foundation while working a reported one hour per week. Bunning Foundation board members include his wife Mary, and Cincinnati tire dealer Bob Sumerel.”

That really is bad news for JimBob because aren’t there like only 8 Democrats in the whole state (most of whom appear to be running)?
He should resign now and pitch for the Washington Nationals.
Kentucky is still a state?
Ruth Bader Ginsberg just released a statement calling on the Senator to FOAD and to eat a bag of dicks, also.
[re=283203]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]: What constitutes a Democrat in Kentucky anyways? A full set of teeth? Owning less than two guns? Only mildly disliking Black People?
[re=283220]Hooray For Anything[/re]: That’s true in pretty much all of the south. My own state of Texas included.
Well, Ol’ Jim has TWO STRIKES against him, but he’s not BALKING at running against these SCREWBALLS; he’s going to TOE THE RUBBER and throw them a nasty CURVE, so he won’t be SHUT OUT of his lucrative and comfortable niche as a US Senator. That would make him BAWL.
Twenty-eight percent will turn magically into fifty-point-oh-oh-oh-one percent when the Republicans finish fixing the election and explaining that a vote against Bunning is a vote for gay marriage, socialism, taking away your guns and giving your Mama to the illegal immigrants as a sexytime toy.
It says something about the sorry state of the Republican party when the can no longer count on racist hillbillies riding around, drunk, on their ATVs for their support.
[re=283235]TeddyS[/re]: It’s like I always told people about Bush’s low low low low approval ratings: a good portion of the people who don’t approve don’t like him because they think he’s too liberal. As soon as a Democrat gets the nomination to run against him, boom, up go those numbers. That said, Bunning is a complete toolbag, and might get primaried out.
[re=283203]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]: Haha…this is truth. In reality almost everyone in Kentucky is a registered Democrat and the Democratic primaries are generally an enormous, yet enjoyable, clusterfuck. Usually there is maybe an actual liberal or two in the mix, but they rarely win. I assume Mongiardo is leading right now and he lurves coal and hates gays, but he is, for some reason, still a Democrat. Personally, I think Jack Conway is going to take this one on the basis of blinding hotness alone. Seriously. He is pretty.
Isn’t Bunning actually suffering from dementia? Maybe he’ll start crying for his mommy during a debate or something. Of course, if Kentucky is as full of asshat rednecks as Oklahoma, it won’t make any difference. God, gays and guns. Holy smokes, these people are dumb as fucking stumps.
[re=283220]Hooray For Anything[/re]: I think their sheets are tucked furthest back in the closet.
[re=283223]chascates[/re]: In Mississippi owning two dogs or less automatically makes you a godless liberal. Further censure is given for missing church EVER, and not addressing the coloreds as “Boy”.
O.K., I’m old as dirt, and I used to root for this motherfucker when he was on the mound back in the D; now I’d be happy to root for him in the ground. Pitchers can’t hit for shit, still. Fuck off, redneck.
[re=283266]OffTheRecord[/re]: So I used teh Google to look for a picture of the pretty. Good Lord in Heaven!!!!

I’ll be in my bunk.
Well, he can always return to his baseball career…or move to Alaska.
You know, when I see the word “bun”, “pole”, and “porn” in a post I expect entirely different content.
Bunning has full blown Alzheimers. While I wish him the best with his disease, I think the easier option would be dumping his old ass in the Kentucky River…
So, if Kentucky goes Blue, and legalizes marijuana, The Blue Grass State will take on a whole new meaning.
Is it just me, or does bunning have no neck? He looks like the Kardassians from Star Trek.
[re=283431]Laura Palmer[/re]: In this case, I might root for the disease.
