I think Bumblefuck is assuming everyone else’s greatest achievements happened like his.
I didn’t
buildwrite those.These encouraging messages of determination and spirt and gentle refutation along with the inspiring music have plucked at my heartstrings fed my soul and uplifted my mood and I don’t even know what heartstrings are.
These encouraging messages of determination and spirt
If there was a spirt in the message, you accidentally opened RedTube.
ms. click,
i built this:
national debt – $16,000,000,000,000
regards,
pres. baracky
– I heard some wall street watcher, an ex-trader himself, say that because of the dirivative trading by banks and for tresury bill futures and sales to foreign countries ( China stopped buying our notes awhile ago), the true debt is between 70 and 200 trillion.
– The GNP of thr entire world, other than the US, is 67 trillion. You do the math.
Pretty scary huh? I just heard the blond-haired guy who is the Mayor of London(?) say the US is responsible for all the market distortion and not the EU.
Well placed, Ms. Palin,
Well placed!
– The Nattering Nabobs on the Left are starting to quiet down with the peral cluting and hair pulling gun control screeds. Someone finally pointed out that Colorado is not an “easy” state, and is not open carry to the morons.
That this is a Bristol Plain joint is outfuckingstanding.
Palin, that is.
– Something else Bummblefuck ‘built’:
– The CBO has announced that shortly the US poverty levels will exceed thos of the ’60;s, the worst since the great depression.
I knew Presbo wouldn’t touch gun control with a ten foot pole today.
Gun control is going to be the third rail for the next few months.
– He knows already he can’t win with the Left anymore, so he’s going to tack hard to the right hoping to grsb some RINO and Independent votes.
I’m waiting for the All Important Undecided voters to become a hot topic of conversation.
Undecided? They mean morons who either don’t vote or don’t think things through.
– As the next couple of economic/jobs reports come out the Obama Utopian wonder barge is really going to start taking on water.
– They way over spent this month and last. 2.3 million on polls, and 100K for a half full stadium to kick off the campaign. So they’re already in the red with 3 months to go, and money is not ‘pouring’ in like the Pravda press is trying to float.
– Rasmussen prez tracking poll for today:
– Romney 46%, Obama – 44%
– Obama’s trend line continues to be slowly downward.
Nicely done
None of the above is a perfectly valid choice. I am having a very hard time convincing myself otherwise.
– Ihave to admit itd rather enjoyable watching the growing bitterness and outeight bickering on the Left.
– Bloomberg and several others did their “unjelpful” gun control rain dances, and the WH politoboro put out the word to knock it off, so Bloomberg doubled down and blasted both Romney and Waffle ears.
– Good times.
While our poverty level might be quite high, I doubt the poor in general are as poor as those in the 30s were. Technology has helped considerably with living standards of even the poorest Americans.
By the way, why do people keep pretending that the Great Depression was worse than this one? I am not sure the facts bear that out. They might, I don’t know, but real unemployment is very high.
None of the above is a perfectly valid choice. I am having a very hard time convincing myself otherwise.
just say nein to 4 more years of baracky ok?
I just think Mittens with a agreeable congress can, and likely will, do more damage than Bumblefuck with a hostile one.
Of course, that is assuming that bunch of back stabbing whores would be agreeable to Romney.
than Bumblefuck with a hostile one.
baracky don’t care about that congress. he’ll f%%kin’ just do it
Undecided? They mean morons who either don’t vote or don’t think things through.
Thank goodness we have mostly-Universal sufferage, though. So the all-important, election-deciding “I don’t know, and I don’t care!” vote is heard.
I like to think of it more as the “I don’t know, and I don’t care, but I’m easily swayed by an unbalanced MFM” vote.
– Holmes tried to join gun club….turned down because of bizarre responses.
“Dan Keeney, president of DPK Public Relations in Dallas, said asking for silence from university employees because of a police investigation was appropriate, but taking down the website was “indefensible” for a publicly funded university unless the school believed it contained inaccurate information relating to the suspect.
“It’s an indefensible action,” he said. “It’s disappointing to hear that they would take that action because it suggests that it’s not in the public’s interest to have access to that information and I think it is in the public’s interest.”
– The University is in all out damage control and CYA. Which raises questions about their interactions with him, and if there were definate signs he was unstable that they just blew off, a rather untenable position for a neurophsycology department.
Who built the Internet?
Who created the creation?
I blame Bush.

geoffb
thanks for that link … I knew most of that history and remember arguing until I was near blue in the face with Lefty moonbats during the Gore/Bush elections about the whole ARPA/Gore’s invention of internet.
Darleen, you might find this fascinating. California is failing, but the GOP there is still in decline. Even the NYT is beginning to notice a correlation!
Take a couple of minutes to listen to Dr. Arnn. He’s a cool cat.
None of the above is a perfectly valid choice. I am having a very hard time convincing myself otherwise.
Mike Rowe 2012! (And probably 2016. Hopefully we’ll have reformed or formed a decent party by 2020.)
I didn’t look at that link on the internet. I didn’t have too.
– The so called “internet” was started by DARPA, (Later ARPA) as a communications line linking 12 majors schools computers. Those comps were rather primative by todays standards, but having that sort of processing power seemed like magic in its day. Eventially in the early 90’s other schools wanted to hook up, so many in fact, that ARPA looked at all the applications and decided the hell with it, just open it up to everyone.
– Gore heard about it on TV.
A reaction to the NYT piece.
If the Republican Party has decided to take its cues from establishment proponents of this reckless philosophy, if GOP leaders can no longer tell the difference between hostile anti-American operatives and benign political actors, then the Republican Party has become an obstacle to liberty and security, not a vehicle for their preservation. As is the case with crushing government debt and out-of-control government spending, it appears that the GOP is choosing to be part of the problem, rather than the solution, when it comes to the threat of Islamic supremacism. Certainly, that is a choice party leaders are entitled to make. But if it is the one they have made, why should conservatives concerned about liberty and security bother with the Republican Party?

– The Left is so fucking stupid, like a heard of magpies, to this day they still believe the joke the reporters were playing on Gore. They were asking him one day if he’d heard of the military ‘net’. He said he’d “discovered” it by watching a news account. Later he repeated that when it was voted in congress for the initial funding for the very first civilian link.
– Thus was born the morons, who to this day, believe he actually invented it.
“. . . if GOP leaders can no longer tell the difference between hostile anti-American operatives and benign political actors . . .”
That right there is a tautological trap Mr. McCarthy. Of course the GOP leaders can’t tell the difference, or else, if they could they’d be exposing themselves as members of the class. Shit. Wake the fuck up Andy.
FTFH
– Reporters of the day knew that Gore had a patchet for verbal gaffes, so they were constantly asking him questions just to see if he’d trip up. Some other examples:
Reporter: You are a strong supporter of schools, how are the kids doing in grammer?
Gore: How are the kids doing in grammer? They’re doing good….just ask them and they’ll tell you they is.
Reporter: How about math? A survey shows they are falling behind other countries.
Gore: Well, you know, not everyone is got to be good at math. Remember, there are three kinds of people ….Those that are good at math and those that aren’t.
– Tke original quote reporters used for the internet joke:
Reporter: The military announced they were planning on turning over something they called ‘the net’ to the civilian sector. What do you know about that?
Gore: Well, you know, me and my wife Tipper watch a lot of news to keep up with things….I discovered the net way back quite awhile ago.
– He repeated the same sort of comment several times in the ensuing weeks, so they turned it into “Gore discovered the internet” as a joke and the morons on the Left, anxious to find anything they could to ‘adore Gore’, were more than happy to accept it as truthiness.
I think you have ARPA and DARPA reversed, timewise. DARPA is now; ARPA was way back then.
Actually, it’s been intermittently ARPA and DARPA, so: the Internet began live as ARPANET, way back before there ever was a DARPA.
/nitpick
I actually used some kind of network connection or other circa 1980 to connect to Case Western Reserve, IIRC. Looking around, it appears to have been CSNET.
