Introducing McCain/Palin's newest surrogate....
RkFast replied to elegantelliotoffen's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The left...the party of Moveon, Media Matters, Daily Kos, etc....now complaining about "surrogates doing dirty work." You CANT make this sh-- up. -
Conservative writer David Brooks

Thats a person whose ideas dont match lockstep with those who got all giddy over what took place in the Denver version of the Deutsche Stadion a while back. I find it funny that the same crew who say "DONT LOOK AT HIS PAST!!!!" are rooting for the guy whose got a literal army of lawyers dumpster diving in Wasilla, AK right now. -

I just think there are better ways to judge a man's character than by how he operates machinery. But if were going this route, I can argue that McCain's flying style shows he will be a good, strong President. For example, the bomb run he got shot down on, he should have bailed out of. But he kept flying into the AAA and SAMS, refusing to disengage until he dropped his bombs, which most Naval aviators would do. Pretty brave, eh? -

I wonder how it would be treated if someone said Obama would govern by "how the watermelon seeds fell out of his mouth" or something similar. Oh, I forgot...when a lib makes such a comment its "in jest" or "satire." On topic....from all accounts, McCain was a stubborn and ham-handed pilot. So what? Judging how he would govern the Nation based on how he flew? Whats next, having a look at how he drives? "Ya know.....that McCain.....he likes to speed in the right lane...how can such a man be President?!!??" -

"I know, Mav.....you had a hard time in flight school, bein' Pete Mitchell's kid and all. But evry' time were up there, its like yer flyin' against ghosts." Methinks Goose is looking into this too much. -
When Obama wins in his landslide, I heard he's gonna drink some fine Vin, piss crude and sh-- out clean coal. No worries.

EiN is RIGHT!!!!! And I think the fact that McCain is referred to as a "fighter pilot" when the guy was really flying "Scooters" on attack runs is yet ANOTHER sign of deception and twisting of the facts by the McCain Campaign. -
Letterman rips McCain for suspending campaign

Ill take this schmuck's driving tips more seriously than I would his political advice. -
Thats not "State Business" being conducted. The "charge" she would face is that if she was conducting actual state business....carrying out her job responsibilities.....in the private account. So far, there is no evidence of that.

What crime did Palin commit? So far the "shes usuing private email for work" thing doesnt have any traction.
-
But a lot of liberals here (and elsewhere) are LOLing and high-fiving over it. These are the same folks who are up in arms over the current Admin "spying", state that the Patriot Act amounts to "invasion of privacy" and has these claims as one of the pillars of their hatred of the Admin. Thats my problem with this.
-
Thats like saying its OK to drink and drive on beer but not on vodka. At the end of the day, its an invasion of privacy, no matter who/what/why carried it out. And I dont think either is right.
-
And normally I agree, but YOU are the folks who are embracing the platform of "CHANGE." What part of the "Obama Doctrine" (lol) of "CHANGE" does hacking into a personal private email account fit into? Seriously, youve pulled your hair out over your accusations of the Bushies playing fast and loose with people's privacy (which, to be fair, I can get my head around), youve whined about our "loss of basic rights".... yet you give a pass to whats going on here? How?
-
Good to see the libs uphold that "protection of private information" concept, one that is the cornerstone of their hatred of the Bush Administrstion.

Nah...he's too busy paying off the demo guys who did 9/11.

I truly beleive Lance was clean becuase as the leader of the tour for so many stages, he was tested more than anyone. But...with the state of cycling, I wouldnt be shocked to find out he wasnt clean. One guy Id be downright POed to find out was doping would be Jens Voit. He is a true ambassador ofthe sport and knows how to compete. Its weird. On one hand, Im psyched for a LA comeback. OTOH, I could care less and Im so much "over" LA with so many other good racers out there, especially with two good strong American teams out there.

So much for the new "code of conduct"...
RkFast replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The people advocating for "sucking it up" and "Ill stand if I want to/Bad fans" are the same rubes I see at Shea Stadium trying to get people to "stand up and make noise"....BETWEEN INNINGS. These are also the same maroons who are so drunk by the 8th inning, that are enthralled with doing the wave when the home team is down by a run and has two men on base. -
I finally get my revenge for that BS hit on Todd Collins way back when. Eat it, Paytoilets.

Horrible news. Godspeed to one of Buffalo's own. -
Did I say it was some "new" phenomenon? No. STFU.

RkFast replied to John Adams's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Honestly, I glossed over and didnt catch EXACLTY what he was was saying, becuase I was too busy trying to pick myself off the floor after one of his guests accused Pat Buchanan of being some kind of race hustler three seconds after he accused the US Government of assasinating Dr. King. -
HBO miniseries about John Adams
RkFast replied to John Adams's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Errr...sounds like thats Bill Maher you were watching, not John Adams. Although I did enjoy Billy's rant on Friday night about how Spitzer was a "victim" of Bush's abuse of the Patriot Act. Back on point...last night's episode was kinda dry. Im missing how JA got from being overseas for so, so long, to becoming popular enough to become VP. -
Its Dyker Heights. Nothing will EVER change that neighborhood. Italians with money...who dont WANT to move! Its becoming more mixed, but its a closed knit community and they all look out for each other. Brooklyn is fascinating. A whole new wave of immigration has taken hold in the borough again, just like it did 80-100 years ago. Whole neighborhoods are changing from one ethnicity to another veritually overnight. For example, Sheepshead Bay has gone ALL Russian since the Berlin Wall fell. Other nabes are going through the same transformation. Its pretty amazing actually to see the social and ethnic patterns of an area change and done...how do I say this?....properly. That is, these immigrants came through the "system" and are assimilating and are part of society. Amazing how when laws are followed and people participate in society properly things work well, isnt it? Okay...thats a discussion for another day.
