Dealergate Update [Dan Collins]

Rahm’s gonna have to start sending a few “packages” out.Deaf Fish Emmanual knows how to keep folks i line.

I won.

Baracky’s gonna divide democrats into three categories.

1. The socialists who have the same goal as Baracky.
2. The tools, who were duped but care more about being in power than their ideology,and
3) The brave dissenters, who are going to – hopefully – stand up against all this bullshit.

You know who I haven’t heard much from ? Leiberman. Where’s he been hiding?

Leiberman is trying to get a law passed to where the dirty socialists can’t release any of the detentionporn pictures that Nancy Pelosi gets off on. Here.

He’s not very popular in that I don’t see his face on CNN when I’m at the gym.

Remember, Nancy, calm assertive energy, you must always make them understand who is the Alpha dog.

I won.

You’d better tell Steny, Baracky. He seems to think he pulls some weight.

I can see, in a way, how closing dealerships could help the manufacturers — ‘You vill take zees shitty cars and you vill sell zem and you vill like it! Meanvhile we vill now pay minimum vage for all zee varrantee vork but be qvick about it!’ — but I’d like to hear how closing healthy dealerships will help the unemployment situation. Forcing businesses to close while unemployment is going up? How in hell does that make sense? And here I thought the Democrats were for the working man!?

And here I thought the Democrats were for the working man!?

working scams mostly

Swen, now Dems are just for the man working for a union. They don’t see the difference.

dems are just for greasy union bosses who hose union members

I believe the correct characterization might be something like…

Ooooooh, snap…

Oh no they di’int…

Ah! From the letter to Obumble:

Closing these dealerships will put over 100,000 jobs at risk at a time when our country is shedding jobs at an alarming rate.

I can’t wait to hear the answer to that..

so the dealers have to get loans to buy the product?why is it necessary to close them?

Auto dealers are gay I think and I will tell you why. A lot of them do their own marketing and jeez but it’s usually very bad and very bland with lame stock footage and a cheesy DRIVE ON DOWN TO CRAZY EDDIE’S voiceover. You see this sort of message indiscipline with domestic cars way more than foreign. But it really really really jacks with the branding. You literally have dealerships that have been marketing pretty much the same UAW-tainted crapmobiles in the exact same way for 30+ years. This goes a long way to explain why it’s so difficult to generate excitement for domestic UAW-tainted dorkwagons.

Baracky’s gonna divide democrats into three categories.

Category #3 is gonna be small enough to fit into a bus. Probably one of those short ones.

Interesting too that the House Majority Leader signed on to this but not the Speaker. Were I the Speaker of the House I’d want this to go to the Prez with my signature on it, or not at all. Is Nanny Pelosi losing her grip on the reins?

Yes Swen,

Steny smells blood in the water…

Steny smells blood in the water…

no nancy’s friend jack murtha’s fatness in the water

High consumption of green tea during pregnancy is associated with neural tube defects in fetuses due to the inhibition of the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) resulting in a folic acid deficiency.

at least i don’t have to worry about pregnancy

You literally have dealerships that have been marketing pretty much the same UAW-tainted crapmobiles in the exact same way for 30+ years.

I beg to differ.

You’d better tell Steny, Baracky. He seems to think he pulls some weight.

Rahm, see what dealers made contributions to Hoyer’s campaigns.And those other two fucks, too.Can we add them to the list of dealerships to be closed?

Yes, we can!

Steny smells blood in the water…

Ooooh! An intra-party feeding frenzy in the House? That would be fun.

Hey, I remember Cal!Go See Cal!I was always afraid to, ’cause he came off like a perv.

“Baracky’s gonna divide democrats into three categories.”

Progressive Triage.
1. Loyalists who will live on with out further care and attention
2. Moderates who will need some of Rahm’s special medicine.
3. Walking dead who will be taken out back without delay.

You’ve got something against pervs now cynn? So why do you hang around here?

somewhat related… has this guy shown up in other places?They were using him even before the election.

Look you asshats, stop questioning the Great Leaders decisions.If you F’s don’t shut the F up, I will have Crazy Joe stumping for you until the 2010 elections.

Rahm

oh, here’s an ad.

Dan, it’s eating my links…

please more bacon with your links

Would you please stop being so apocalyptic?Hey, here’s how my week’s gone; I know Obama’s not gonna fix it.Spent all week redoing my daughter’s room (gone for 2 weeks).Patching, sanding, stripping, scrubbing, painting, re-painting, caulking, filling, etc.Now it has just dawned on me that I used the wrong kind of polyurethene over the filler and stain on the floor.So I have closed the door and will probably wake up tomorrow to some gellid goo that I have to seal off with yellow crime scene tape and therefore my daughter can never live there.Which means I don’t need to pick her up on Saturday.

P.S.:Have you ever asked one of those Ace dudes for black caulk?Shit, I am so done with this.

Which means I don’t need to pick her up on Saturday.

maybe consider an obamaville

Have you ever asked one of those Ace dudes for black caulk?

Racist!

sinking ship:

JCN Counsel Wendy Long sent a letter Friday to Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and members of the committee arguing that Sotomayor had not properly complied with this requirement because she had not submitted the 1981 memo on capital punishment.

“It is . . . clear that (Sotomayor) has omitted controversial material from her past in which she asserts that ‘[c]apital punishment is associated with evident racism in our society’ and advocated public opposition to restoring the death penalty in New York state,” Long wrote to the committee.

?

I hear the black caulk is, on average, somewhat larger than the white kind.

that’s up there with islam inventing everyting

I want to know how the polyurethene story ends.

I want to know what the Ace dude said when cynn asked him for black caulk.

The polyurethene story never ends. It’s got to be oil-based to be durable enough to last on a floor, so it’s going to take friggin’ years to cure entirely and stop stinking. I tried the water-based but it just didn’t stand up so I’ve put up with the stink now for like four years. Seriously. There’s got to be a better way, but don’t you dare say “carpet”. I’ve got lovely 60-year-old red oak floors.

Go See Cal!

And his dog, Spot?

Wood floors don’t have to have a plastic cover. The colonials oiled ’em and waxed ’em. They can go ok with just the oil or even nothing at all if you choose.

See I know nothing of these things with the curing and the gellid gooing, but this seems insightful…

An uncured polyurethane coating formed by applying polyurethane paint containing isocyanate prepolymer on a substrate is cured by a method which comprises applying a catalyst (cure accelerator) on the uncured polyurethane coating and subsequently exposing the polyurethane coating to a heating atmosphere of 60° to 100° C. By this method, the reaction of urethanation explosively proceeds and the time for curing the coating can be notably cut because the optimum catalyst for the polyurethane coating can be selected without restriction and the catalyst in a highly concentrated state can be brought into contact with the polyurethane coating.*

“explosively proceeds” it says.

Me I’m thinking carpet.

alia lug?

I am fucked, but at least I have the fumes…

Strip the gunk, resand, refinish. If that’s what it takes. Hopefully you will wake up and find it worked ok after all.

So I do this in my goddamn dreams?Come on over, the door’s unlocked.

I am fucked, but at least I have the fumes…

proggs fess up

aw cynn. maybe you could make it a fun summer project for some mom and daughter time.It’s like that time mom painted my room and it took forever and electrocuted myself.good times… good times…

oh there was also the home perm.

Make sure your house is well ventilated until the cure has set. I got bad sick once breathing poly-u fumes too closed in for too long. Put a fan in the window somewhere blowing out if you have to in order to get positive airflow.

How to Remove a Polyurethane Finish

Also here.

It looks like a lot of work to where you might consider calling someone.

happyfeet, it would be simpler just blowing up my house and hitting the shopping cart syndicate.

that crossed my mind too

LOL, wish me luck, and when you’re here I’ll catch a meal.

I’ve been the oil & wax route sdferr. I think that’s where the colonials coined the term “housemaid’s knee”. I was hoping for something a bit more durable and carefree. Instead I got hell for durable, sorta carefree, and probably carcenogenic. But it’s bloody gorgeous!

And I bitch too much. Actually, the only time we notice the smell is when the house has been closed up for days. We for sure didn’t use any sort of catalyst though. Just mopped the stuff on and let it dry for four years.

And it never smelled quite as bad as this Dealergate deal.

buenos suerte. But also keep us posted.

My sense of the oil and wax deal is that one has to adjust one’s expectations (of beauty, of cleanliness, etc.) downward somewhat. Me, I’d just leave the floor more or less bare, mebbe some linseed oil or tung oil and go with the throw rugs or mid-east carpets, screw the wax.

It’s like that time mom painted my room and it took forever and electrocuted myself.

Are you sure it wasn’t the foil wallpaper? My mom put that stuff in the bathroom and every time it got steamy in there you’d get a distinct tingle when you took a shower. Who’d a thunk it would conduct electricity from the outlets to the old cast iron tub?

This was much more than a tingle, Swen.I stuck my hand in the uncovered light switch.cause i’m a klutz.

Say! You don’t suppose somebody put foil wallpaper in Chris Matthews’ studio and he was just getting overly moist at the sight of Obie Won?

Ow!

Arrrgh! And now it’s two hours past my bedtime. Much too entertaining, thanks all! G’night.

night, Swen.

Yo, where all the trolls at?

Still stuck in “Dems decry breach of security”, SBP.

I wonder if Axelrod issues new talking points over the weekend.

Maybe they’ll jump into this one on Monday.

I don’t know whether I’m more confused over the fact that Cynn just argued that people should stop being upset at the Obama admin’s crass thuggery and/or idiocy because she’s remodeling, or that the argument appears to have worked.

Every day a new WTF.

Also, I think the dealership thing is like the Ayers thing – it’s ugly and it’s central to the issue, but the MSM just puts their fingers in their ears and hums real loud.
