Awful, outlandish, Angry Left stuff:
Now, being a POW certainly doesn’t qualify anyone to be president.
Bob Scheiffer must be mortified.

Why is Fred Thompson smearing John McCain’s military service at the RNC?

my god… it’s full of ponies!

What’s full of ponies? The future?

No, that pile of shit in St. Paul’s Xcel Center…

Ah, but Thompson added a twist:
Did you know that John McCain’s character, which was revealed during his five and a half years as a POW, a time when he suffered horrific abuse that did not constitute torture under the current administration’s definition (and hence Thompson’s failure to mention the word), makes him qualified to rule retroactively both Sumer and Babylon? These states may have fallen, but they’re still seeking a leader like John McCain.

Too bad we can’t just give these clowns their own country someplace very far away. Like Mars.

Clearly, Obama must now reject and denounce Fred Thompson.

Well, now we’re all witnessing what happens when Rovian ratfuckers step in a pile of shit. They then jump headlong into huge vat of shit and claim that The Left is trying to drown them.

Now, being a member of the Keating 5 doesn’t qualify one to be president, either.

Picking an secessionist fundie wingnut with little political experience to be your understudy doesn’t qualify you to be president, but it does qualify you for a retirement filled with frustration, regret and an aging beer heiress’s recriminations.
Come to think of it that might be more fun anyway.

Could The Editors or their lawfully appointed proxies email me please? I have a number of thoughts on the general subject of compiling a rodent Kama Sutra to share, but perhaps not publicly.

When Anu the Sublime, King of the Anunaki, and Bel, the lord of Heaven and earth, who decreed the fate of the land, assigned to Marduk, the over-ruling son of Ea, God of righteousness, dominion over earthly man, and made him great among the Igigi, they called Babylon by his illustrious name, made it great on earth, and founded an everlasting kingdom in it, whose foundations are laid so solidly as those of heaven and earth; then Anu and Bel called by name me, Hammurabi, the exalted prince, who had spent five-and-a-half years in a hole under the Elamites, to bring about the rule of righteousness in the land, to destroy the wicked and the evil-doers; so that the strong should not harm the weak; so that I should rule over the black-headed people like Shamash, and enlighten the land, to further the well-being of mankind.

Hammurabi will not submit his comments to moderation! They cannot be moderated! Hammurabi’s words are X-treme to the X!
Hammurabi is the White, Potent, who penetrated the secret cave of the bandits, saved the inhabitants of Malka from misfortune, and fixed their home fast in wealth!

Now, being a POW certainly doesn’t qualify anyone to be president….but being a hockey-mom with big American bazookas sure does!

The GOP puts the o in wack-o. Rudy is very special.
September 3, 2008 at 7:18 pm
I’m pretty certain this group believes Rudy is their Daddy.

This fall, 3 of the 4 candidates on the ballot will have had the experience of having a child fighting in Iraq. The fourth? Barack HUSSEIN Obama. Clearly, we need to elect McCain so we can make that 4 out of 4!
September 3, 2008 at 8:44 pm
Considering the antics that GOP baby-daddies get up to (as showcased by this convention, in fact), they might be correct.
I demand DNA tests of all delegates.
September 3, 2008 at 10:22 pm
What the fuck is this all about:
“And we need a president who doesn’t think that the protection of the unborn or a newly born baby is above his pay grade.”
Who’s been eating newly born babies?

OMG Sarah Palin is just so qualified! What ever was I thinking? She can form a sentence and speak it into a microphone, (with a little help from her friends.) Track, Stone, Blizzard, Fairbanks, Gnome, Scallion, and Todd, (what kind of name is that?!) are all so amazing! We’re going to burn your Salon down to the ground, (and replace it with a Walmart Townhall Freedom Fry Zone!)
September 4, 2008 at 12:34 am
Sarah Palin didn’t write her own speech at the Republican National Convention, not one word, George W. Bush’s speech writer Matthew Scully did. Enough said.
Palin is an empty suit solely on the ticket to undermine Obama’s credentials, with her own. Why not make the ticket McCain-Scully? Or more likely, Scully-Scully?
Barack Obama earned the votes of thirty-million Americans who all believe Obama is qualified to be President due to his profound capacity based on his success as a Constitutional law professor who could have gone to Wall Street and earned millions but instead helped laid-off steelworkers lift themselves up through organization. Todd Palin as a organized steel worker should understand that. In a Democratic Republic, democratic acclaim is at the core of our political system. On the other hand Sarah Palin was selected by Washington insiders without earning one non-Alaskan vote to be a heartbeat away from succeeding a seventy-two year-old cancer survivor as leader of the free world. Republicans believe that the people aren’t smart enough to pick their own leaders and they in their infinite wisdom can send a never ending grand parade of incompetent packages at the American people and call it government.
The only thing we learned about Sarah Palin tonight is that she can read English aloud and is willing to be appointed to a job she doesn’t even understand as former Mayor of Moosejaw, population ridiculous.
I couldn’t care less about her sexual orientation or her lovely family, so long as she understands that all American women deserve the same choice Brixton, or Gnome, or Lasagna or whatever the young lady who shouldn’t be forced into marriage had. I respect that Matt Scully couldn’t coordinate a toddler lovingly pasting down her baby brothers cowlick on national television, but he sure as hell would if he could. For all I know that might have been a Rove 9000 Automotoddler.

Barack Obama has 70 Retired Generals and Admirals from all four branches endorsing his ability to be President over John McCain
McCain has 11 retired Generals and Admirals willing to step up and endorse McCain over Obama.
Considering McCain was a career naval officer, what does this say about who the leaders of men consider to be superior?
70-11 isn’t only the likely score of the Pats-Chiefs game Sunday, it’s an important, meaningful credential for Obama.
September 4, 2008 at 1:12 am
17.5 million, thirty million votes for Obama, whatever. I’ll just pretend Hillary Clinton’s campaign was an purple drank illusion.

Please, Kleber, it’s not Track: it’s Trig. That’s way more normal.
September 4, 2008 at 5:38 am
Just occurred to me…is Trig some sort of bizarre reference to the kid’s extra chromosome?
September 4, 2008 at 6:09 am
“Just occurred to me…is Trig some sort of bizarre reference to the kid’s extra chromosome?”
Probably the subject that Sarah flunked out of in H.S.
And “Algebra” sounds, so, arabic!, so that’s a no-go.
September 4, 2008 at 6:45 am
And now… back to our regularly scheduled ponylanche!!!!
September 4, 2008 at 7:04 am
A McCain-Palin administration would be nothing at all like Bush-Cheney. It would be like Cheney-Bush.
September 4, 2008 at 8:55 am
Danny, it’s Track AND Trig! Trig is the newest addition, Track is the one soon to be off to the field of battle.
September 4, 2008 at 10:26 am
Why not make the ticket McCain-Scully?
Dana Scully would make a helluva VP.
September 4, 2008 at 6:52 pm
Oh, good! Because what would a Track be without a Trig by his side!
But yea…seriously…three chromosome jokes are not cool. And by “not cool,” I mean “extremely offensive, but totally hilarious.” I really hope she actually named the kid Trig in reference to the Downs…
