And then there were 3 — the evangelical statist, the Maverick Progressive, and the neo-Nazi sympathizer with an isolationist foreign policy.
Get your sweaters out, folks. Jimmy Carter is coming back to the White House. Whether it’s in a skirt or a blue suit is up to those of you who bother to vote for President come November.
…won’t be me.
We need bonfires on hills. Lots of them, on the night before the election.
Just ’cause.
schadenfreude is so under-rated as an emotion
There must be some kind of way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
Theres too much confusion
I cant get no relief
In the end I hope to vote for McCain. Maybe McCain/Thompson if please please please let me get what I want lord knows it would be the first time. He’s a douche. But he’s an old-assed douche. And I haz the audacity of hope.
Well now THAT really sucked. The country is screwed.
Hey now. He doesn’t sympathize. He just doesn’t care. An admirable thing, almost.
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl
Two riders were approachin
And the wind began to howl
…uh, in recognition of (2)
In the end Romney shows class.
Huckabee fucked us all. Floating cross my ass.
Shit, spell-check doesn’t even acknowledge Huckabee.
Bonfires on hills? So that the Rohirrim show up and vote?
I’m confused.
hehe
whoops there goes another rubbertreeplant happy?
ima vote Obama.
BECAUSE OF THE HYBRID VIGOR
i mean…if votin for mccain is a throw away vote….why not make a statement?
it will give us some street cred with the world population.
and…astonishingly…appearance may not be all….but it is a lot…particularily in diplomacy.
an a popular president can accomplish a lot….look wat bush accomplished when he was popular?
he wasted it tho.
Romney’s statement said that staying in the race could make him complicit in an Obama or Clinton victory, which he then equated directly to “surrendering to terror.”
Ooh. That really resonates coming from someone who cut and ran in the face of the Democratic party.
BECAUSE OF THE HYBRID VIGOR
I lol’d.
I’m writing in Edwards, cuz that’s the way I roll.
Cylons? That would explain a lot. But aren’t there supposed to be five? Where are the other two?
Oh wait: Hillary and Obama.
We’re screwed.
Jesus loves Huckabee. But also Obama.
I wonder who Jesus will let be President?
Oh well, now that it doesn’t look like I’ll be doing NewsHour, I guess I’ll go hit the kettlebells. I have glutes to tighten and hamstrings to engorge with lactic acid.
What Would Jesus Vote?
Man, it doesn’t feel like us Republicans picked owr own candidate, does it?
No. It f-e-e-l-s as though he was picked for us.
I’m wondering, is there a loophole that’ll let the delegates at the convention friggin’ DEMAND a different candidate?
Like, through a popular uprising?
“There’s too much confusion,
I can’t get no relief”
Try a different massage parlour. It may cost more but it’s worth it.
“No. It f-e-e-l-s as though he was picked for us.”
Damn you, Rove!
If I wanted to have a lying, backstabbing, socialist for President the Democrats have had a lock on that brand since Wilson. They have organized the entire party structure to ensure that the biggest, baddest, lying sociopath will always be in charge. Why would I want to buy “New Coke” when “Pepsi” been around forever. /rant
Those of us who were forced to hold our noses and vote for John Kerry are, as you might imagine, riotously tickled by your discomfort. That said, I feel your pain.
wow, I heard it here first, folks. I was supposed to work, but chose to go ski-hiking through the nice 14 inches of fresh pow outside my door. Nice work if you can have.
hyperbole? I am in good company now that I’ve been outdone: “evangelical statist, the Maverick Progressive, and the neo-Nazi sympathizer with an isolationist foreign policy“. The first two I get and not to far off the mark…but that third guy? Sorry, I missed something. Was it the Cofer Black endorsement of Romney or what?…I don’t think it was the religion.
Romney had at least good business sense. Why waste any more money, he asked himself? Now, then the Clinton’s are the new self financiers in this campaign, can anyone explain when they became multimillionaires?
Wow. I am so happy it finally snowed a decent amount here in the East. Gotta go do a few more hikes and turns. Smiles and the possibility of Obama? The big ? Maybe we can get PW to become Obama-rama?
Hold it. Hold it. McCain’s totally bought into the AGW hoax. If we get him elected, he’ll start doing things like taxing gas and cutting the poor working stiffs’ knees right off. The MSM scuttles AGW and hammers McCain. Then it gets cooler in year 3.
In three years we’re shed of Gore and McCain in one swoop. I can ride out 3 years.
Maybe even Gabriel (Kaplan) Fry.
dataless dave:
The neo nazi sympathizer is Ron Paul, who is actually still in the race.
We’ll try to slow down for you.
Yeesh, Gabriel! Superglue? Cement? Krytonite? Did you remember the titanium earplugs?
Romney is out, datadave. So he is not one of the three remaining.
Do they have subtraction on your planet?
I actually drank myself into a stupor and furiously banged the Diebold screen with my fist at random, in order to retain plausible deniability, but I guess my cover’s blown now, huh?
..and datadave too.
You know what dave. I can’t speak for everyone here, but could you please resist the urge to turn this comments section into your own personal journal of laziness and faux-sportsman chronicle?
And fellow commentors: I know there is some sort of fairness doctrine for banning participants, and I would gladly throw myself on the ban-pile if I can grab the nail that’s sticking out of dave’s head and pull him onto the fire with me. I mean “hikes and turns”? “HIKES AND TURNS”?
Sorry guys. Datadave is really me. I created an alter-ego to make my comments sound less smug, self-aggrandizing, and woefully half-cocked by comparison. But the gig’s up, and I apologize to everyone I may have harmed.
thx..I thought Ron Paul was never in the running…and neither is Huckabell. Tinkerbell..oh well.
Come to think of it, you never do see Gabe and datadave in the same comment. Boy is my face red. I wish I could apologize to each one of you in a separate comment but I just got this new cornhole set and I can’t wait to get my hands on the ol’ beanbag if you know what I mean. Just smilin’ and cornholin’.
There’s always a third party. Anyone know who/what it is?
“personal journal….faux-sportsman chronicle?”
Isn’t that position already filled by someone else? At least that other guy pays for the bandwidth
I’ll say it again:
Don’t blame me, I voted for Kodos!
I really want a T-Shirt with that on it, if only I could afford one.
IJS resumes its fucktard ways.
dd – xcountry skiing is not skiing, it is a fools activity on flat ground. Telemarking down a mogul run is skiing. Seeing how few turns you can make to the bottom of the mountain is skiing. Powder to your waist off piste is skiing.
Huckabell. Tinkerbell..oh well. forgot to add Kettlebells!
ahmmm. call me Happyfoot! I am really happyfeet, but wanted to see how it feels being a ‘liberal’.
no, really Jeff. I’d come to the defense of Ron and Jimmy, but daylight’s waning.
oh, JD…that’s why I called it ‘ski-hiking’…jeesh I don’t want to drive to some resort using up our World’s precious body fluids. I love you too.
mogul’s are for inbounds fools… only the fresh stuff!
I know, al. It’s like some random word generator programmed by some evil unity of Hamsher and Retardo. Wait a minute;
DAVE, DIDN’T YOU KNOW THAT ALL MORMONS ARE NAZI SYMPATHIZORS? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
Sorry for the interruption, al.
I call it jogging with 2×4’s strapped to your feet. I thought only fools did that kind of stuff, and you have confirmed that for me.
I’d gladly, voluntarily self-ban if it meant I didn’t have to wade through dave’s intermittent piles of mostly wildly-inappropriate intellectual dungheaps. Mostly because I think he’s doing it to yank our collective chains.
I just got done eating salmon with a nice creamy dill sauce. Now I’m going to wait a spell and do some core routine. All the while thinking about baseball.
Take THAT, IJS!
Well Slart, BJ, JD, there’s always impersonation.
Hey dudes! man am i glad you Brought up this supject, cuz I know absolutely nothing about it. But I just got a new mustache trimmer and I have to decide if I’m gonna give the old girl a try or do the punch-out work on that clogged toilet that I’m contracting. Oh, it’s for a rich family and you know, they pay and they don’t care when you get it done. Stache it is! I’ll be back when I’ve got the perfect Geraldo or Chaplain if I slip up. ha ha! LOL!! Don’t worry folks. I’ll be back. See ya! I’ll be back.
I’ve got a recipe for venison in dill sauce. It’s better with doe, FYI.
Nonono. I are happyfeet. Ahem.
But also Hick looks just really stupid standing out there with no Romney foil. People are laughing and pointing.
It’s looking more and more like the GOP ticket will be McCain/Huckabee. I can’t think of a ticket that sucks worse for the conservative movement.
McCain can open the borders, and Huckabee can immediately start fining all the new Americans for Menudo and refried beans that aren’t reduced fat.
Oh. Even audacious hopeyness can’t rationalize voting for that. That’s just fucking retarded. But no way that can win. Douche + Jesus = thanks for playing.
“McCain can open the borders, and Huckabee can immediately start fining all the new Americans for Menudo and refried beans that aren’t reduced fat.”
= balanced budget. Fiscal conservatism, you have met the enemy and he is you.
Goldstein / Burge sounds pretty damned good right now.
Oh. What I do is buy the non-fat refried beans and then add my own oil and some diced jalapeno tomatos. For chalupas where you put lettuce and black olives and stuff on top and the white crumbly cheese I can never remember what it’s called. It took me forever to find that stuff cause I would go to the store looking for the white crumbly cheese and I never could find it. Turns out you have to crumble it yourself. Anyway, the tip about using your own oil is solid and really, how subversive is that?
McKain and Huckabee can kiss my chalupa.
I was almost beginning to come around to the idea of actually voting for McCain, in spite of all of the assmuchers that told us how foolish we were to have concerns about Johnny Mac. But, if he makes Fuckabee his running mate, I will join Ann Coulter in campaigning for the Dems.
olive oil.
extra virgin.
me and Ann, mate.
So that’s what they’re going to lube up with before telling us all to BOHICA.
That’ll be so fucking virtuous!
Gotta go do a few more hikes and turns.
Break a leg, ddave !
In three years we’re shed of Gore and McCain in one swoop
I’m afraid we’ll all be driving Hybrid Vigors by then, alp.
Now introducing, your all new 2010…
DIFFERENTLY-ABLED TRABANT !!!
Whatever the circumstances are, exercise your right to vote. Do that come November.
Yes you’re correct Toniqua. Just exercise our right to vote.
Hey! Don’t be dissing the Nordic thing. My family is from Telemark and I was born with the boards on my feet (Yes, my mom still has a pained expression). Look at it this way: If you’re going to spend 10 months of the year up to your hip pockets in snow it’s a better way to get around than showshoeing, which was obviously invented by some malignant dwarf Swede.
On the other hand, you could just be smart and don’t hang around in the winter in places where it snows. It’s a lovely 85F in Terlingua right now. I just grilled chicken ’cause it was too hot to cook inside.
