Doing Time with My Friends

My friends, the "that one" moment captured everything that was wrong with McCain and right with Obama last night.
My friends, put aside the substance of the discussion (there was little new ground plowed from the first debate), McNasty could not help himself from jumping out.
My friends, as warm and cuddly as he tried to be with the voters who asked the questions, McCain's disdain for Obama, his contempt for having to share the same stage, and his overall lack of enthusiasm for being there oozed out of every pore.
My friends, McCain's fundamental lack of respect for his opponent was beyond rudeness to Obama; it was dismissive of the overwhelming number of Americans who, whether they intend to vote for Obama or not, respect and admire his intelligence, achievements, and abilities. My friends.

Sometimes I sort of feel sorry for McCain.
He's got to know his best shot was in 2000 and he let the GOP leadership talk him out of not answering the Bush campaign's smears against him. Now his only chance is to appeal to racism.
That's got to be a shitty feeling.

Let's face it; he's made a career out of being a POW.
Bushie! Doin' a helluva job!

At the extreme rightists in the G0P, who took advantage of an obviously unwell old man on two levels:
Uffda had a good point the other day. Huckabee will probably be the one most likely to carry out the christofascists' threat of an American Taliban.

By LiberalIconoclastOctober 8, 2008 - 3:42pmMcCain reelected by Arizona..?
Do you think Arizona will still want him after all of his shortcomings/mental flaws have been exposed and he's without the 'white' house as one of his residences?

The Staticky "One"?

BWAAAHH!!!...HA!!..HA!!... HAAAA!!!....BWAAAHH!!!...HA!!..HA!!... HAAAA!!!....
OMFG!
You wanna hear something absolutely more hillarious than anything you've ever heard??
TUNE IN SEAN HANNITY!
BWAAAHH!!!...HA!!..HA!!... HAAAA!!!....BWAAAHH!!!...HA!!..HA!!... HAAAA!!!....
=====================
Picture a hot frying pan... add 2 tablespoons of oil... now toss in a worm.
That's Sean Hannity today... It's fucking bizzare.
I've seen him squirm before, but nothing like this... He was panicked yesterday but this is just beyond pathetic.
Hannity has deteriorated into a manic, hebephrenic, drooling rant... a schizoid mish-mash of screaming truncated half-talking-half-points.

I'd love to hear that! Hopefully somebody recorded it and can post it... or does he do free podcasts? I doubt it... giving away something for free? Nahhh....
Describe his squirming? Give me a pleasant visual.
Was it like Pat Buchanen on MSNBC trying to contort and explain why McCain was "the winner in points" in that debate?

By A GOctober 9, 2008 - 3:49pmHee hee hee hee ... McLosingIt thinks Iraq borders
Afghanistan;
McCrash has to have 'Whispering Joe' tell him exactly who we're fighting in Iraq;
And this one just cracks me the fuck UP! Someone was trying to figure out a way to insert "noun, verb, POW" ...
"McCain refers to Americans as 'my fellow prisoners'"
"You and I together will confront the $10 trillion debt the federal government has run up and balance the federal budget by the end of my term in office," he said. "Across this country, this is the agenda I have set before my fellow prisoners and the same standards of clarity and candor must now be applied to my opponent."

By RobespierreOctober 8, 2008 - 4:28pmMCCAIN LINKED TO PRO-NAZI, VIRULENTLY ANTI-SEMITIC GROUPS
YAHOO IS REPORTING THAT FOR ABOUT 4 YEARS JOHN MCCAIN WAS ON THE BOARD OF THE U.S. CHAPTER OF THE U.S. COUNCIL FOR WORLD FREEDOM, AN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION LINKED TO FORMER NAZI COLLABORATORS AND ULTRA-RIGHT-WING DEATH SQUADS IN CENTRAL AMERICA.
FOR YEARS MCCAIN ALLOWED THE GROUP TO PUT HIS NAME ON THEIR LETTERHEAD WHEN MCCAIN WAS A U.S. SENATOR.
MCCAIN CLAIMS THAT HE RESIGNED FROM THE GROUP IN 1984 AND ASKED THE ORGANIZATION TO REMOVE HIS NAME FROM THEIR LETTER HEAD. HOWEVER, MCCAIN CLEARLY CONFIRMS HIS MEMBERSHIP IN THAT ORGANIZATION.

It's called,"Steal as Much As You Can, Until Something Like This Happens. And Then Try And Survive, And If You Survive, Be Quick To Blame It On God And Say the Reason "you" Survived, Wasn't Cause You Stole Enough to Buy Yourself the Bunker It'd Take to Survive This, but ...Because God Chose You, And You've Been Chosen to be The New Leaders of The Survivors"

By MadgardnerOctober 8, 2008 - 4:43pmBILL O'REILLY
O;REILLY ACTUALLY DID OBAMA A FAVOR. IN HIS INTERVIEWS WITH OBAMA WHICH I THINK WERE WIDELY WATCHED, HE BROUGHT OUT THE AYERS ISSUE AND OBAMA DISMISSED IT BRILLIANTLY. BY RAISING THE ISSUE AND GIVING OBAMA AN OPPORTUNITY TO CLEAR THE AIR EARLIER IN THE ELECTION CYCLE, IT HELPED REDUCE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE ATTACK NOW. THE NICEST THING OREILLY SAID WAS THAT OBAMA WAS "NOT A WHIMPY GUY".
ON THE RIGHT WING SCUMBAG METER, AND ON A SCALE OF 1-10, 10 BEING THE WORST, I WOULD GIVE HANNITY AN 11, AND OREILLY A MERE 4. THAT IS ABOUT AS NICE A THING AS I CAN SAY ABOUT THE GUY. O'REILLY MAY BE A DOUCHEBAG, BUT HANNITY IS A DOUCHEBUCKET.

By LiberalIconoclastOctober 8, 2008 - 4:44pmSarah on Title 9
If you want a laugh watch Greta "Plastic Face" Van Sus as she interviews Sarah
According to Sarah, when asked her view on Title 9, she said in sum and substance: "Title 9 teaches you everything you need to know about sports and leadership, it's like Plato said you learn more about people in a minute of play than an hour of conversation"
It's like Yogi Berra said, just because your ignoront don't mean your stuped

WASHINGTON - Barack Obama has his William Ayers connection. Now John McCain may have an Iran-Contra connection. In the 1980s, McCain served on the advisory board to the U.S. chapter of an international group linked to ultra-right-wing death squads in Central America.
ADVERTISEMENT
The U.S. Council for World Freedom aided rebels trying to overthrow the leftist government of Nicaragua. That landed the group in the middle of the Iran-Contra affair and in legal trouble with the Internal Revenue Service, which revoked the charitable organization's tax exemption.
The council created by retired Army Maj. Gen. John Singlaub was the U.S. chapter of the World Anti-Communist League, an international organization linked to former Nazi collaborators and ultra-right-wing death squads in Central America. After setting up the U.S. council, Singlaub served as the international league's chairman.
McCain's tie to Singlaub's council is undergoing renewed scrutiny after his campaign criticized Obama for his link to Ayers, a former radical who engaged in violent acts 40 years ago. Over the weekend, Democratic operative Paul Begala said on ABC's "This Week" that this "guilt by association" tactic could backfire on the McCain campaign by renewing discussion of McCain's service on the board of the U.S. Council for World Freedom, "an ultraconservative right-wing group."
