And surely Paul Street and I are not the only people who remember that not only did Barack Obama support the war in Iraq, he wasn’t “ruling out the nuclear option” even though we have to “pull out now.” Pull out now, give up, and nuke the place, huh?
There’s some great foreign policy…
And right now, with the WORLD economy in upheaval, foreign policy is just a little more important than our current problems, because a bit of diplomacy and trade might be a damn good way to pull us out of recession and restore the American people’s faith in our dollar…
I mean, last night, standing in the checkout line, an upper-middle-aged woman remarked about “all the books” about the presidential candidates.
“There are like fifteen for Obama, one for that racist and three for that whore.”
I looked at her out of the corner of my eye, but not enough she would have noticed.
“And I’m voting for Obama, not that stupid whore!” she continued.
Ummm … I think her logic was faulty …
Didn’t she mean that she wasn’t going to vote for “that stupid racist?”
“You’d have to be a f#$*ing idiot to vote for that bitch!”
Wow … Well, I actually agreed that you’d have to be an idiot to vote for any “bitch” in this election, considering it’s actually two men running…
Looks some liberals don’t even know who’s the front runner any more…
I’m a little confused by all the “Vice President” bashing, anyway. Back in 1991 and 1995, nobody liked Al Gore, either. Clinton supporters would always be first to let everyone know, “It’s not like Gore is gonna be President, anyway! Who cares?”
So why does Palin matter so much now that the tables are turned?
I’m sure everyone’s heard about the Rachel Ray drinking game, where you take a drink every time she said “EVOO.” Friggin’ annoying, that. Emeril only says “BAM!” once per show, WTF can’t she just say her damn trademark word once, too?
Well, because those of us who’ve played the game wouldn’t get very lit, now would we? And we have to be lit to put up with how many times she says it during the show…
But today, I’ve come with a better one, therefore I propose a new drinking game…
The Barack Obama drinking game.
Step one, drink a few beers to get it going, because you’re going to drink some nasty swill.
Step two, grab your favorite bottle of liquor under $15.
Step three, find any given broadcast or video of Barack Obama on television, radio, YouTube or whatever.
The rules are simple: every time Obama says, “Umm,” take a drink.
The last man standing wins.
Of course, at the rate he says “Umm,” it should be a short game…
Here’s a short clip to get you started!
Abd ify ou passeed out, I win!!!! Im’ the kign ofteh woirld!
Obama recently went off on McCain for his lack of technical prowess. Meanwhile, Obama has “his people” set up a blog, a twitter, a MySpace, and bunch of other Web 2.0 garbage that I am 100% certain he has no idea how to use, himself. And it really ticks me off, because it is then used to harass and annoy people who don’t want it.
And this right here is where’s it’s an issue. Obama keeps going off that McCain is “out of a touch” with technology and living in a world of twenty-there years ago, and yet Obama is out of touch with the very laws he’s being paid to help to shape and mould — and even then, doesn’t show up for work most of the time.
Federal Statutes have declared that Campaign E-mails soliciting for donations fall under the category of “Commercial E-Mail.” I have received no less than three of these e-mails per day for the last month — all from Barak Obama. Despite my having opted out. Multiple times. To no avail.
It requires that your email give recipients an opt-out method.
It requires that commercial email be identified as an advertisement and include the sender’s valid physical postal address.
And it appears that there’s only one of those items the Obama campaign hasn’t broken!
Oh, and it carries with it fines of up to $11,000 per violation, raking in a conservative estimate of nearly ten million dollars that Barak Obama owes in fines, plus State Recompense and the FTC-Imposed Civil Fees, which means that Barack Obama owes me $45,900.
So McCain is out of touch with Technology … Obama is out of touch with Law, and the spirit of it.
So seriously, Mr. Ospama, stop adding me to MySpace! Don’t follow me on Twitter! And first and foremost, quit sending me these damn e-mails! And get out that check book — I could really use it right now, so I’ll settle for an even $45,000.
One of the things you learn to stop doing when you move to another country is bitching about politics. You’re an immigrant, an outsider, and in most cases, you can’t hope to understand the nuances of another country’s politics.
Unless you’re an extremely astute bastard, like Craig Ferguson.

He also re-iterates a point I’ve made a billion and a half times: if you didn’t excercise your Right to vote, then you Lost your Right to Bitch. e.g. if you didn’t vote in the last election, no one cares about your disdain and comdemnation — STFU!
Plain and simple.
Oh … And if you’re a Senator who didn’t even bother to show up and vote on all the Resolutions you were supposed to vote on because you’re too busy blazing a campaign trail, you’re a total Asshat! Not only do these Senators have a responsibility to vote on these issues, it’s their duty and their job to do it — especially when it’s a bill that’s at the heart of their campaign promises.
And it’s interesting to note, when you go down the Voting Records to see that the Head of one of our two major political parties pretty much hasn’t voted on anything in like … eight years? Apparently, the Jackass that represents him is a little more personal…
