Back in April, I suggested a variety of ways in which candidates might prove that they weren’t elitist, including by going to Sturgis.
Well, McCain went to Sturgis and passed that particular test for me, only to have elitist morons on what is reputed to be a comedy site insinuate that he was being inadvertently funny by not realizing the humor latent in his comment about encouraging his wife to take part in the Miss Buffalo Chip “Beauty Pageant”. The yokel hatred absolutely drips from the page, posted there by the same sanctimonious asses who claim to feel the pain of the hard-pressed working man.
Best titled of the lot is probably John McCain is ready to leadâ€â€drunk, overweight, nude bikers, because, face it, that’s really gross, whereas this sort of thing? Slender urban sophisticates on designer drugs speaking truth to power.
Baracky and his cult people are so snotty. People are noticing.
yep, McCain is celebrity only
This election isn’t about McCain you big silly. It’s about the snotty marxist.
Baracky and his cult people are so snotty.
And still, when Barack was in the ME, he took one 3-pointer and then his hip started hurting. So the camera crews were at the hospital when he checked himself in for a “sore hip 3-pointer” and if I remember correctly he was dressed like Grady Wilson in his every-day lounging wear.
No one’s talking about the Olympics. That’s downright homophobic I think.
Gee if Juan went “Gay Day” in SF he’d be a lefty hero.
John McCain isn’t elitist because he can laugh at himself. Elitist is a mindset, elite is a fact. He is comfortable in his own skin and doesn’t need to take umbrage at everything. He knows where he stands on this world.
That is, the true heroes don’t brag.*
*A late friend of my uncle’s was in Merrill’s Marauders. He never bragged about that, just said that he was in the ‘_________th canteen and messkit repair unit’, when he had stories only our nightmares could tell. I regret not trying to get him to speak; much as I regret not getting my paternal grandfather to speak about the RFC.

BUT OBAMA IS AN ELITIST BECAUSE HE EATS VEGETABLES!!
Having been to Sturgis numerous times, without even reading what the comedy site has to say I am sure they don’t get it at all.
Something I don’t understand.. Why are the fringe proggies so virulently anti Israel.. anti-Jew.. ? And in light of that fact why do some many Jews identify as Liberal when it’s the Right that supports Israel ? I looked at the Zombietime site.. The filthy promiscuous gay lifestyle isn’t anything new.. The unbridled Bush hatred didn’t surprise me.. but the bare naked anti-semitism… The freakin KKK isn’t even that hateful in it’s rhetoric.. Why? That’s all.. just why?
AJB,
Being rich and being an elitist are not the same thing.
Would you prefer no one was rich, and no one could attain wealth?
Move to Cuba.
AJB,
Can you run through the part where Cindy McCain thinks she can tell everyone what to do because she thinks she’s better and smarter than everyone else and if she doesn’t tell everyone how to keep their car in tip-top, optimal-inflated condition, they will flounder in .004% less fuel-efficient hell because they are stupid sheep?
Because I missed that part. Am I being elitist when I say that you aren’t even smart enough to know what elitist means?
I think I’m being factual.
AJB – see my comment just above yours. State of mind.
Terrrrreeeeeeeezzzzzza was not at all elitist.
Nor is Arrrrrrrrrrriannnnnnnnna.
Al Gore’s houseboat? Populist. Ditto Edwards’s manse.
What do they all have in common? The common touch.
BUT OBAMA IS AN ELITIST BECAUSE HE EATS VEGETABLES!!
No because he is a pinhead.
I denounce any references to the O!’s etc.
Well the airplane was going her way.
Apparently Cindy McCain is doing her part to keep the economy stimulated. What’s the point in having that much money if you don’t spend some of it on luxuries?
That is interesting AJB. What kind of inside financial info on Obama can you dig up?
And why would you drop a bag of cash on the counter at the High Dollar Store, when you can use your Amex and get all those wicked crazy points? I think AJB is probably wishing he’d have thought it through more before he barfed up his stupid comment. No harm.
Suddenly being green is not cool any more
Plus, alp, those pennies are all worth more melted down.
“For instance, in the June issue of Vogue magazine, Cindy McCain said she favors suits made by the German designer Escada, which typically retail for around $3,000 a pop. If she becomes first lady, she told Vogue she may switch to an American designer, possibly Carolina Herrera, whose suits are comparably pricey.”
You know I’d go with the Madison WI COLLECTIVE FASHION WEAR No.1 factory if I were 1st lady. For the MOTHERLAND-USSR.
I missed the part where Cindy McCain has been trying to tell me how to live my life.
And the part where Cindy McCain spent 20 years in the pews of a church where hatred for people who have my skin color is considered godly.
I think she should wear Free People. You know. If not to many kids are enslaved in sweatshops to make it.
Plus, alp, those pennies are all worth more melted down.
I know Dan. I propose a new national holiday. Melting Day. One day out of the year you can melt your pennies and sell the copper. It would stimulate the economy and any couch-cushion related diseases would be wiped out in a couple of years tops.
No, wait! You mean many people see Green as a fashion statement, and when it comes to the crunch Green is tossed overside?
Well shut my mouth and call me Susan.*
*Don’t really call me Susan.
You mean sell the mostly aluminum I think, Alppu. Copper? Only skin deep.
Oh, did I say skin? I meant surface. No, really.
I thought the pennies were still copper.
Cunt as a verb, pennies are aluminum. Knowledge is power.
It’s a mean cuntry where you go to Princeton and get a $300,000 job.
Really mean I SAY!
Damn you Susan
“Copper? Only skin deep. ”
Anti-Indi…Native Americanist!
That last paragraph and link are golden. Reynolds should “heh” it. Except the link would go to .. well… I’m not sure how to describe those … woman…
heh ?
Pennies are zinc clad in copper. Get with the program, people!
Al, I kid you not, a girl friend of mine the other night exclaimed “cuntastic” in reference to some other chick she hated.
I could only imagine if I had used that word during one of my occasional rants….
cranky-d, right you are, my bad.
Best not to even think it Matt, Esq. Nor cuntisimus either.
Cuntabulous is right out.
And there is no cuntstabulary, that’s a myth plain and simple.
Those Armani suits that Pelosi wears are on sale at K-Mart now. Look for the flashing blue lights.
“Look for the flashing blue lights.”
– Right next to the Botox boutique.
“While Cindy McCain, her dependent children and the trusts and companies they control made as much as $29 million  blah,blah,blah…”
– Well hell. Doesn’t that just suck. I guess Michele had better get her ass in gear.
– ABJ, you should look around you, get out more. Whether you know it or not, you’re still living in America. The great “redistribution” hasn’t quite happened yet. Be patient.
– The Elite will gain their rightful place in the coming Utopia and ruling aristocracy.
– I can “feel” it. Like a tingle up my leg.
I can see the feedlots now, teeming with elitists happily chewing their cud and waiting for the IRS to come and milk them each morning.
#7 Mike NTH
Don’t feel bad about not getting him to talk. One of my friend’s lost her dad a few years back..one of the few remaining members of the Big Red 1 – North Africa, Battle of the Bulge — he always refused to talk about his experiences saying he wouldn’t inflict it on anyone.
My father who is 81 only talked about being in the thick of it once. Otherwise, he will talk about the non-battle experiences sometimes.
– I see it a tad diferently McGehee – Feedlots teeming with herds, happi;y chewing their cud, and waiting for the FEDs to come each morning, single out the weak, sick, or low intelligence among the flock, and use very large ugly wind powered shears to gather the days take of wool.
AJB
When was the last time Cindy was whining about fresh fruit for her children?
Michelle can’t find fruit for the kids, but Barry eats his vegetables? That hardly seems fair.
Well, you heartless conservative bastards!
If you have more than I do, then you owe me a living and a McMansion!. I don’t give a shit how much you have sacrificed to take care of your family, it’s MY fucking money, and O! is going to make you hand it over!
You stupid dipshits! Hard work and sacrifice have nothing to do with it. You have “stolen” my money! I need another six pack and a new plasma hi-def TV, you greedy bastards. Hand it over, you conservative pricks!!
What? Are you just stupid or something? Fucking greeedy morons! Just brcause you bust your butts for the money doesn’t mean that it’s yours!
All teh money is belongs to usns!
Lost Dog,
I got a young son-in-law that, although he would never say it to my face, definitely thinks like that.
Pray for me.
AJB is just jealous.
McCain at Sturgis seemed kind of … odd. However, the contempt that reporter held for the people at Sturgis was literally oozing off the paper.
Isn’t that the basis of all appeals to envy?
23/6 as a blog name? — That’s lamer than Festus. I bet a site search for fart jokes would choke your computer.
Well, he damned sure didn’t tell anybody there (Sturgis) what he thought of them to their face. Because he’da got cooties and all. And no penis.
That should be “And he has no penis”, but ya’ll already knew that.
On this day of low motivation, Friday, I had to find this at day’s beginning. I am struggling, after the initial ‘mmmph!’ that spillled a littel coffee onto the plastic keyboard cover, to get my mind around it; so far, I have embraced a rather large but smooth organ in a blue uniform fastened together with black leather belts and which is wearing boots. There is a faint odor of fish, and I can’t tell if it is trying to suppress the use of “cunt” or increase the use of cunt.
Maybe more coffee will make it go away.
Well, I gotta admit, zombietime was quite adamant in his NSFW warnings and all, but I’m a Missouri Mule, and I gotta see things with my own eyes in order to believe them, so I clicked through all the warnings.
And I saw. And I still don’t believe it. (And I used to skim wtf.rotten.com — when that page still existed — during my lunch break, without missing a bite.)
Wouldn’t it be nice if zombietime’s photos appeared on the Evening News, so that Middle America could see that the people at that Fag Fest (nttawwt, of course) are the ones who elected Nancy Pelosi to the House; and that the rest of the Democrats there elected her the Speaker.
Third in line for the Presidency.
American values, and all that.
I’m pissed.
Challeron – You, my friend, are a bigot and a racist and a homophobe.
Oh; and now I’m definitely voting for McCain: My religious beliefs are such that — although we are pre-destined — we still make choices, like mice in mazes; and maybe God is testing us all, as a nation, to see if we can make the “right choice” out of some pretty pathetic pickings….
And JD, thank you for that denouncement.
Now I’m proud (for the very first time).
I am glad that my common sensical view of your abhorrent behavior has brought a little light to your day. I do what I can.
Racist
What, I’ve been downgraded already?…
So nobody knows, huh?
Nobody knows why the fringe left apparently hates Jews so much..
Nobody knows why they’re so anti-Israel..
Nobody knows why the equality and fairness party gets by with spewing the most vile, racist, hateful things about Jews while conservative writers like Buchanan suggest they dont agree with Israel and are met with screams of “anti-semite!!”
And weirdest of all, nobody knows why so many Jews lean Liberal..
It’s just a mystery, huh?
Jingoist xenophobic misogynistic a-hole.
Erm, JD, me or Ouroboros?…
(If you meant me, then I am Proud once more.)
Oh, yeah, JD, and don’t forget that I’m also a Religious Crank.
(I’m not, however, a Xtian.)
Strikes me as a bit more than just ironic that you cant smoke a freakin cigarette in public in San Francisco but you can wander down a public street buck ass naked, wearing a cock ring and smoking a perpetual series of unprotected poles as the cops just look on and smirk… A freakin modern day Sodom by the Sea just beggin for The Big One…
That was totally all on you, Challeron. Wear your vileness with honor.
Ouroboros is starting to sound like Falwell and Robertson ;-)
Weird thing is that I’m actually neither zealously religious nor homophobic… I’ve got nothing against gay people and even support legalized gay unions… The guys in the zombietime pics, though, like their libertine hetro swinger counterparts are filthy disease spreaders.. not content to indulge their aberrant appetites in some private place (if such things can be considered aberrant in SF) they have to parade it through the streets of cities across this country… for no other reason than to offend the sensibilities of the mainstream… Feh.
Well shit, Challeron, you not being a Xtian is bonus points. I’m doubting, now, that you’re even a homophobe, racist or mysogynist. You, my friend, are a poseur.
As for AJB. I had a very good chuckle out of that comment. There is a difference between being rich and being elitist. I know elitists in trailer parks. Cindy McCain, however, is indeed a memeber of the elite. Maybe, that’s what the little tyke was aiming for?
Comment by rjvtx on 8/8 @ 3:41 am #
Lost Dog,
I got a young son-in-law that, although he would never say it to my face, definitely thinks like that.
Pray for me.
Believe me, I do. Every day.
Your son-in-law may be like that, but this is the crap they are stuffing my eight year old son’s head with in public school. In a town that has more money than God and has about six minority persons in it, he is taught that “De white man be da devil”, day in and day out.
He is taught that global warming is going to destroy the planet because of American greed. China and India are never mentioned. It is Evil America’s fault.
He is taught that the founding fathers were stupid, racist dickheads, and the Constitution is no great shakes.
Even his arithmetic books have political bullshit in them.
It’s a fucking juggernaut.
It’s infuriating, but my only real choice comes down to homeschooling or a roof over his head.
The only thing I can hope for is that some of the seeds I try to plant will bloom someday. I hate thinking of so many children waking up in thirty years and being horrified at the miserable, stunted world that they live in.
And by then, it will be too late…
I hate to sound melodramatic, but it’s hard to avoid. I see Obama as actually believing the crap that he spews. I would be more able to deal with it if I thought he was a cynic, but it looks like he is not. He actually thinks that his lunge for the miserable past in this world is a giant step forward. He is the face of the new America, win or lose. He might be a little ahead of his time, but it’s coming like a freight train.
And that is depressing…
Both my father(Guadalcanal) and my uncle(Normandy) wouldn’t say shit about their exoeriences, other than to admit they served.
It wasn’t until I came home from Vietnam that Dad finally opened up to me about his service. What those two endured made my time look like a Sunday picnic. I will forever honor them for allowing me the privilege to live in this country.
[Obama] is the face of the new America, win or lose. He might be a little ahead of his time, but it’s coming like a freight train.
No. It’s. Not. Don’t be so hang dog, Dog. As a military friend of mine told me just before the Surge, “Stop worrying. The fighting always gets most ferocious at the end, when you’ve got the bastards by the balls.”
When Obama loses in November, the Dems are going to tear themselves apart hating on each other. The Left, having somehow lost yet another guaranteed win, will start chewing its own leg like a rabid hound. The MSM will become all Olberman all the time. This hysteria-driven over-reaching cluster-f*ck is going to repulse so many “independents” they’re going to ask for laws legalizing open season on anyone who still sports a “Kerry-Edwards” bumper sticker.
McCain showed that he and Cindy each have a sense of humor. I think they both knew exactly what kind of contest they have at Sturgis. No one expects Cindy to actually compete, but if she did, she’d be in the running, even wearing one of her Escada suits. Those lefty prudes on the “humor” sites need to get a clue and get a life.
