y'all happy now?

it is one of your own.

The guy who grilled Obama about possibly taxing the *average* Americans who earn over $200 grand a year at the rate of the booming Clinton years?

They made a good choice.

Charlie Gibson belongs to me?

Charlie Gibson belongs to me?

#3 | Posted by Zed

Yes, didn't you know?

I rent him out to children's parties.

Any wonder why ABC was chosen? Couldn't be because Charlie and ABC are known as going easy on GOPPERS could it?

Look for zero "tough" questions.

NANC---I know it's difficult for you to understand---But a real person wouldn't have to be shamed into giving one stinking little interview. A strong woman doesn't behave this way.

What I want to know is if this Palin considers this tea-and-crumpets all she's going to do.

Let's recall that for the last week Big Daddy McCain wasn't going to let Ms. Frilly Pants speak to anyone at all before the election. Then the critiques began to draw blood.

Republicans want and need Palin to be seen as Pioneer Woman. Frankly, any idiot can shoot a moose with a high powered rifle, and I will bet you $5.00 Palin's newly-minted super-woman persona wilts under any sustained attention.

Which gets us back to why no one wanted us to speak with her at all.

charlie's like the pitcher when there's someone on first and some one on third - what to do? me, i bunt.

bigger and better things, people - bigger and better things!

BUNT, SARAH!

zed - how many moose have you shot? shooting something is but the easy part - you've got to slice it's throat, chop it's nads off, hang it, gut it and cure it - cut it up and put it in your freezer for later. i've never shot a moose so i can only imagine all it entails.

"sarah!"

you people are never happy - she's giving an interview to one of YOUR people - wtf more could you ask?

gold rope's not good enough - you beg for platinum!

you people are never happy - she's giving an interview to one of YOUR people - wtf more could you ask?

Who should "sarah!" have agreed to speak to?

(And I'm still unclear on this "YOUR people" crap)

Maybe I'm going at this from the wrong angle.

Nanc-
Who are YOUR people?

they're the people you'd never find yourself amidst, betel...silly question.

why isn't this post up under the one that states sarah won't give interviews?

it appears she's ready.

oh, i know - y'all're waiting for okra to cave.

Hmmm, the DR Left was just saying she was going to be locked away until the election. Now a prediction that she will wilt in an interview. Sure is tough when a election that shouldn't have a chance of being lost is a dead heat at best. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory....

why would you be against interviewing this woman?

as an american citizen you should DEMAND that our politicians answer to the american people that they wish to govern.

we know mccain, we know biden, we have gotten to know obama,

why would you be against a hard serious interview with Palin

well unless you are a puling partisan

I also remember the DR left promising us that she would withdraw her name because of her daughter's pregnancy. Then, that McCain would demand it. Then, a collapse during the convention speech. Then, after a stunning performance, it was because it was a prepared speech to a crowd before whom she could not fail. Then, a plunge in the poll numbers once Americans spent more time getting to know her. Then, that she would refuse all interviews. Next up: more predictions of how Joe Biden is going to demolish her in the debate, then an explanation as to why he did not.

You guys are the best negative indicators I've ever seen. If you ever decide to start a financial 'blog, please let me know. I can make a fortune just betting the other way.

ff that, rir!

"A prediction she (Palin) will wilt in an interview...."

No. It was a an assertion Palin is a kewpie doll rather than Mrs. Davy Crockett, and that would become more evident over time.

I'm not at all sure why what McCain is trying to do with Palin is mysterious to you. Bush went eight years being babied by an insulating cadre of flunkies for the now obvious reason he would speak and look like an idiot.

So history is about to repeat itself. And if it was appropriate to have contempt for Bush because he could never handle an essential part of his job, it will be appropriate to have the same contempt for Palin for not measuring up in the same way.

I want you all to recall all the positive traits you thought George W. Bush had. You must realize by now (God, tell me that you do) that he and others lied about their extent and even their existence, but you swallowed those false assertions whole.

You're being punked again.

Hmmm, the DR Left was just saying she was going to be locked away until the election. "

One interview after hiding for 16 days. At that rate, two more interviews before Nov. 4th. Can you say chicken? Bwack!

"So history is about to repeat itself."

And with only 58 days left, they're going to get away with hiding the Caribou Con Artist.

how many days?

the dnc ran "August 25-28, 2008" and she was announced when, nullnvoid?

apparently, your counting methods are much the same as your logic and reasoning - nullnvoid.

"how many days?"

She was announced 9 days ago. If she is interviewed this Sunday that will make 16 days.

this is this sunday, null. please stop trying to convince me you are an imbecile.

p.s. - thought you were the master of this game?

"this is this sunday, null. please stop trying to convince me you are an imbecile."

Hey dumbass, next Sunday will make 16 days.

well, here's something they can talk about:>)

Oops! She Did It Again
ABC's Political Punch reports on Sarah Palin's speech today:

www.democraticunderground.com

Palin says "I talk to the wind"

www.youtube.com

listen nostradumbass - you're grasping at the straw that broke the camel's back - isn't it good enough she's giving the interview to one of your hacks?

Charlie Gibson is one of "your people"(libs)?

You mean the guy that ran to Sean Hannity for material to throw at Obama?

"your hacks?"

Who in the fuck are you talking about? Charlie Gibson is an assclown.

Charlie Gibson is a hack...but he's not my guy, that's for sure.

Why the hell does palin have to be pressured to do the sunday morning talk show routine, or even ONE interview? Every other VP I can recall just DID IT without the subject of refusal even entering anyone's minds.

Palin is "tough" all right...lol

Jesus, even that idiotic ass W gave interviews. They were horrible to watch, and he looked stupid, but he did them.

5 bucks sez gibson makes no mention of palins lapel pin, as he did for Obamas.

"Palin is "tough" all right...lol"

Apparently the tough-talking Alaskan Annie Oakley is more like Barney Fife when the pressure is on.

From the article---"She said she "championed reform of earmark spending by Congress, and I told the Congress thanks but no thanks on that 'Bridge to Nowhere'", she said, ommiting (sic) mention that she'd campaigned for governor supporting the bridge."


You know they just had the AK Gov debates on C-span with Sarah and two other guys in 2005.

They never even asked a question in this debate about the bridge. You would think with this --that there would be a question?

And as a Gov--what the hell--the gov't gives away money--Has any Gov anywhere at anytime turned down gov't money?

She also raised sales tax in Wasilla to raise revenue 2 million--How friggin un-republican of her!!

And poor Null --He demands an interview and he gets one and it's still not good enough. Null thinks she should have sat down --right then and there and given some a-hole an interview before during and right after the convention!!

I know --why doesn't Sarah have an interview everyday from here on out so Null can play "Gotch' ya'"


Swinging and missing--

Gibson will have a ratings bonanza.

You mean the guy that ran to Sean Hannity for material to throw at Obama?

#30 | Posted by Alexandrite at 2008-09-07 11:54 PM


No that would be Georgie porgie--

if he can stop shaking like a dog pooping peach pits long enough!

"I know --why doesn't Sarah!!! have an interview everyday from here on out so Null can play "Gotch' ya'" "

She could do that every day and still trail Biden in number of interviews.

charlie gibson is a leftwing partisan hack!

null - please...people are watching...now would be a very good time for you to put your tail between your legs, clean up the piddle on the floor and go to bed.

Normal people see this as stonewalling. Righties see this as accepted behavior.

Which group do you belong to?

"god i hate you, skanc!"

nullnvoid

She could do that every day and still trail Biden in number of interviews.

#39 | Posted by nullifidian at 2008-09-08 12:02 AM


Oh!!

So that is the new barometer of measuring what exactly?

lol--that is funny--you are a funny guy Null..

" Null thinks she should have sat down --right then and there and given some a-hole an interview before during and right after the convention!!"

Yes, she should've. You think Romney wouldn't have been doing interviews before, during, and right after the convention, just like Biden?

sgc - i belong to the group who doesn't end a question with a preposition.

"Normal people see this as stonewalling. Righties see this as accepted behavior."

These two skanks, Nanc and Murph, are so in love with their new Messiah they'll excuse anything.

dayam you're skeert, ain't'cha, null?

you're not like cutting yourself right now, are you, null?

What stonewalling--she is going on with Gibson!

She will do some others as well.

There is also a debate on October 11th with Biden.

The election is Nov 4th!

Why would anyone reward media with interviews with the despicable manner in which they treated her last week?

"dayam you're skeert, ain't'cha, null?"

Could you translate that from trailer trash talk to English? Thanks.

#45 | Posted by nullifidian at 2008-09-08 12:05 AM

You have such tough standards--how do you keep up??

"What stonewalling--she is going on with Gibson!"

After 16 days of stonewalling. Meanwhile, Biden gave a half dozen interviews in the first week after his selection.

Aren't you getting dizzy from all that spinning?

Have you seen the USA Today poll--??


McCain 54
Obama 44

Why is the Caribou Coward so afraid of the press? Or is it the McCain campaign that's afraid?

Why would anyone reward media with interviews with the despicable manner in which they treated her last week?

Uh, because she's running for Vice President of The United States and the public deserves to know everything there is about this unknown?

She could have avoided all the media hoopla, but chose to keep it secret until her daughter married after the convention.

"Have you seen the USA Today poll--??"

What does that have to do with the cowardice of the McCain/Sarah!!! campaign?

MURPHY

Did you order your 'Sarah' poster yet? I posted a link for you the other day.

Half dozen--I must have missed them.

He was on 15 minutes with 60 minutes and MSLSD..

He was on Meet the Depress this morning--his 42nd time!

Don't worry Null--she will be on for years to come when she and Mac are elected!

Have you seen the USA Today poll--??


McCain 54
Obama 44

Good. I hope McCain wins. Not enough to vote for him(I do have to sleep) but it would be exactly what you morons deserve.

Won't hurt me one bit. In fact, it would end the republican party.

Well, we'll see where things are when the likely negative report comes out from the investigation by the Alaskan legislature.

We're electing a President not a Vice President.

The Palin twinkle dust will settle, and America will choose a President, not a Vice President.

"In fact, it would end the republican party."

It wouldn't be so bad to see these fuckers holding the bag when the American economy collapses. They'll probably call the homeless camps McCainvilles. Or more likely, since he'll probably drop dead pretty soon, Sarahvilles.

BS AU--and you know it!


You should catch the c-span debate--

I know you want to learn more about her --so grab a snack and watch the debate..

null - there is a fundamental difference between the left and the right - one side seeks to shape the truth to fit themselves and the other seeks to shape themselves to fit the truth. you're either on one side or the other.

murphy - the left is our best weapon and their biggest downfall. history will prove it.

I agree. Why do you rightwingers want to "create your own reality"?

"''We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality -- judiciously, as you will -- we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.'' "

I've done my homework.

She's getting prepped on talking points and cliches. There's no way she'll really know what she's talking about beyond that - not in a month. Sorry.

If you've done your homework you should know that.

Or, if you're a pragmatic person, you'd never assume a person who's never had any national experience - lives in a state with the population of Ft. Worth, TX, far from the mainland in a place where oil and moose hunting season are the chief topics - could possibly have a grasp of the vast range of pressing issues we fact domestically and internationally.

It'll be a all crammed talking points and cliche lines.

g'night!

p.s. - a.u. - how do you know she hasn't been being prepped for the last six months? or a year? we have no way of knowing.

be surprised.

nanc's two story double wide

I'm sure that the McCain group did more vetting on Charlie Gibson than they did on Sarah Palin.

He's a real candy-ass when it comes to hard hitting "interviews" ~ if you could even call them that.

I doubt you'll ever see her talking to Chris Matthews on Hardball.

Charles Gibson Interviewing Palin This Week.

When I first read the title, my inside voice pipped up "softball, anyone?" I'm sure that the actual interview will be hard-hitting and fair, keeping in mind that Gibson is a corporate news reader. I was hoping more for Bill Moyers. I'd pay money to see that.

Only reason Charlie got the gig is bucause he's a Wus and sold out to McCain and agreed not to ask any questions that might be borderline embarressing or controvercial. Charles Gibson is not a real jornalist just like Sara Palin.


this is this sunday, null. please stop trying to convince me you are an imbecile.

He won't be as agressive with Palin as with Obama. The wus already sold out in an McCain interview at the RNC and thats the only reason HE gets to thave the interview. Its all politicol bullshit crafted to make the pubs look good.

c'mon. this clown used to host "good morning america". this will be a larry king style interview.

I'll be sure to have my softball glove nearby in case she misses one of the softball questions.

"skanks"....and as always NULLandVOID shows its true colors.

"The other side (Republicans) fits themselves to fit the truth..."

Well, if there's one thing I've learned in the last eight years, it's that statement is a no-brained piece of garbage.

George W. Bush is a REALIST? What the hell? I'd like to ask MURPHY if Sarah Palin is a leader in the mold of Bush. However, George has become He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named by Republicans.

My number one memory of the Republican Convention? McCain attempting to brag he noticed Bush was brain-dead about Iraq two years before Bush did, but without identifying the still sitting president of the United States in any direct way.

After laborous effort yesterday, I got a Palin supporter to concede she really did try to get the local librarian fired over issues of personal politics.

The bottom line, after figthing that admission tooth and nail for several hours? He did not care. Didn't give a damn whatsoever.

It seems Republicans don't mind sacrificing a small-town librarian now and again in order to facilitate a march to greatness.

I'd imagine from her past behavior Palin considers MURPHY and NANC at the level of that librarian---Little people, and smaller now that the stakes are higher.

....and FDR didn't mind having thousands of Japanese AMERICANS thrown into camps...right ZED.

....not that I'm defending putting the heat on a librarian.

"No that I'm defending putting the heat on the librarian...."

Then condemn it. We both know Palin won't.

The one thing I haven't heard from a Republican yet in regards to Palin and that librarian is something to the effect that greatness requires ruthlessness. I expect someone will trot that out sometime today.

My own view is Biblical. A woman who can't be trusted with small things can't be trusted with large.

After laborous effort yesterday, I got a Palin supporter to concede she really did try to get the local librarian fired over issues of personal politics.

nobody cares

Exactly my point, EBERLY---You don't care. I suppose that's why you sit on that side of this political divide and I sit on mine. I won't knowingly vote for an asshole.

Zed,

I don't care that you "labored" to get someone to admit something.

Nobody else does either.

Another leftie supposes to know "which side of this political divide I sit on".

You don't know shit Zed.

Well, EBERLY, I think you know shit. Just saying....

But while were on the subject of political orientation, perhaps you could tell me which of these statements you most agree with?

1) Greatness requires ruthlessness.

2) The ruthless need to be locked away.

ZED,

I'd condemn the act of someone putting the heat on a librarian by seeking that librarian be fired over refusing to ban books that do not warrant being banned (by the way I can't think of books that should be banned...maybe hardcore porn not being made available to children). I haven't researched this accusation against Palin in particular.

Now, do you condemn FDR directing that Japanese AMERICANS being put into camps?

Zed,

You are on to something. You choose the word "ruthless" to describe what you want to believe describes Palin's actions in the past.

If she fired that librarian then I disagree with that. Again, if true, then she is a zealot.

ruthless????

You are a pussy.

I hope her daughter rebels against her and exposes her as worst mom on the planet.

"worst mom on the planet."

You do realize that there are thousands, if not millions of other mothers on the planet with pregnant 17 year old daughters, correct? What other parenting follies has Palin committed that would put her above all the others?

"You are a pussy...."

And I have no comment to make regarding your status as a cat, or any feminine anatomy others allege you conceal.

"Now, do you condemn FDR directing that Japanese AMERICANS being put into camps?

#102 | Posted by ride_on "

More importantly, Zed, do you think pigs could fly if they had wings?

I've used "ruthlessness" and "asshole" to describe a certain personal trait that once established is usually permanent.

Everybody on this blog knows what I'm talking about. I won't vote for an "asshole" out of self-preservation. I suggest you follow my example.

Joe I hope she was trying to force against her will to get married or was beating her or something horrible that can exposed and used against her.

Yes, yes....there is a possibility the Dems may just snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

And the response is....they show and express their hate. Anticipate seeing those that also HOPE for her to die (and painfully so). With supporters that hate and plead for retribution....Obama must be beside himself. Keep it up DR Lefties.

Nice deflection Zed.

But you are nothing but a pussy and your posts prove it.

Most importantly I answered Zed's question to me and he has not responded yet to the question posed to him.

EBERLY, me boy----I like you and have for years now---But the idea you could out-insult me is the first really funny thing I've heard today.

I'll tell you what---List the very worst things you can say about me now. I won't even hit back, I need the amusement that much.

"Joe I hope she was trying to force against her will to get married or was beating her or something horrible that can exposed and used against her."

You hope for things like that? You are pathetic. See a shrink.

Spoken like a true Independant, eh?

But the idea you could out-insult me is the first really funny thing I've heard today.

that is your idea...must be the voices.

Is this junior high school? From a disinterested third-party view of this thread, one might get the impression that Ms. Palin's candidacy is becoming as toxic and divisive as Shrubasaurus' presidency has proven itself to be over the past eight, long years. But that's what happens when no real information about her is available and a frightening number of you had to resort to calling each other names to satiate your raging desire to say...something.

When I step into the booth this November, I'm going to vote FOR someone, not AGAINST, because this election is about issues, not personalities. My...how elitist of me.

BANI- good eye!

Worth reposting...

When politicians lie -- and here I mean not just putting the best spin on things, but out and out lying -- they might as well walk up to each and every one of us and say: Hello! I have no respect for the value of your time! You might have other things to do -- work, playing with your kids, taking a long hike in the mountains, whatever -- but I don't care. I'm going to put you in a position where you're going to have to research everything I say, or else just give up on your civic duty. You don't get to assume that my words are, if not exactly true, at least somewhere in the general vicinity of the truth, and decide whether or not to vote for me. If you want to be an informed citizen, you'll have to become obsessive, like hilzoy.

www.democraticunderground.com

Sums it up nicely for me.

The Rethugs are out and out lying and I for one am sick of it. We are all sick of the Hollow LIES!

Let's call it what it is LIES not "spin"!

I'd say that it is definitely time for Change!

Time for some Truth. All Politicians stretch the truth but out and out lying about things that have already been PROVEN to be lies is just insulting.

Sure would like to hear some Truth for a CHANGE from the Rethugs!

Here is example ( I hear ya already Eberly)

Obama will raise your taxes.

LIE!

This line has been repeated over and over by McCain, at the convention and in battleground state ads. But it's a lie. If you make under $250,000 a year, Barack Obama will lower your taxes.

AH LOOK AT THIS

already you liberal fucks are set to eat one of your own.........

go getum

and it is certainly no surprise that you bring up just about the only person to ask either of the dems a real question..........so typical

I for one cannot believe the selfishness of...us...I guess. Especially the people whining about taxation. Do you think Americans had this discourse during WWII? We are in the midst of an even costlier campaign (campaigns), yet, except for a very small percentage of us, Americans have not been asked to contribute or sacrifice one bloody thing. And people have the nerve to bitch about Obama wanting to roll back Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy (yes, that's what it is) using some ridiculous, disproven notion of trickle-down economics (didn't work for Ronnie, certainly doesn't work for Dubya -- then again, nothing really worked for Dubs except Turdblossom).

Everybody on this blog knows what I'm talking about. I won't vote for an "asshole" out of self-preservation. I suggest you follow my example.

Yo, donnerboy,

Have you even had an economics class?
Do you know what happens if O-dumbass rasies the tax rate on LLCs and S corporations to 50%. Small businesses (less than 100 employees) hire 90% of the employees in this country.

www.census.gov

If you raise the tax rate on business to 50% most would go out of business and millions of people would be put out of work. The is Obama big plan? Lets put half the nation on welfare tax the crap out of everyone else then blame the right. You people are so clueless.
****


Under Obamas plan to let the scheduled 2011 tax rate hikes occur, and his plan to raise the self-employment tax on those making more than $250,000, the S corporation rate would rise from 35 percent to 39.6 percent. The sole proprietor and partner rate would rise from 37.9 percent all the way up to a staggering 50.3 percent. Many Democrats in Congress have proposed making all small businesses (including S corporations) pay this 50-plus percent rate. A small business tax rate that high would be the highest marginal rate faced by them in nearly a quarter-century.


www.politico.com

Let's recall that for the last week Big Daddy McCain wasn't going to let Ms. Frilly Pants speak to anyone at all before the election.

Link? Didn't think so... (Oh, sorry, AlFranken.com or KOS or www.Fatso-Moore.com don't count)...

The GOP convention ended in the early morning hours this past Friday. And here it is only 3-4 days later and Palin has a network interview lined up. Seems reasonable to me. How many are clamoring to interview Same Old Joe? Oh yeah. Nobody, because he's an irrelevant more-of-the-same retread candidate. I can see how the GOP having the cooler of the two VP candidates may be causing you to have brain cramps, though.

Charles Gibson?

Just another version of Bildo O'Really.

SOFT BALLS.....lobbed, make that 'rolled' to her.

This isn't an interview--it is a commercial. She won't be live, and the answers can be edited and reshot if she makes a mistake. Put her on live, or STFU.

BBob,

An awful lot of interviews are pre-recorded.

Are you suggesting that O'Reilly's interview of Obama was a commercial?

Usually, interviews are edited by the news agency not the interviewee.

Jeff J

Your post does not refute my point. If Obama made an interview over two days--yes--it is a commercial. But Obama has spoken on his own and answered questions live many times. To claim this is an interview of Palin, is not correct.

Fucking reaching at straws and it is working, keep it up.

The weak ass obama democrats are going to shank another kerry colapse and the down hill roll has just begun.

This is the problem with the democrats, they have no balls and can't manage to keep the heat on at all times.

What you wish for, moneywar, is all you are saying.

No, the problem is the Democrats went half-cocked after a woman and her family the moment she was nominated. Now your valid concerns seem like more bitching to the normal American voter.

What you wish for, moneywar, is all you are saying.

Really?

Over the last week and reading the lame ass postings and threads that the democrats are going to fall on their ass.

Are the democrats talking about unemployment? lost jobs? declining income? any of the things that really need to get addressed.

There is a thread on this sight which clearly shows how little palin knows about the financial crisis and hardly a word is posted about the actuality of her knowledge. Just a bunch or punchy chest poundin post about nothing going on.

Yep, if that is all the democrats can do and say, WE DON'T NEED THEM.

Yo, donnerboy,

Have you even had an economics class?

Did I say I agree with or even understand either of their tax polices?

Personally in a time of war I can't understand why we are ALL paying higher taxes...but as you know that is political suicide to even think that isn't it?

No,

I am tired of one side lying about what the other side says to do just to confuse the issue even more. Then we as the voters have to research the truth. Then it becomes information warfare. And we end up arguing incessantly over what the hell was even said. This is the way the right operates.

In the age of the internet this should not happen but we have assholes like, well, A_hole and Chairpuddle who love to deflect and distort using Karl Rovian tactics to satisfy some sick urge of theirs to sow chaos. Kind of like when Rush Limbutt tried to disrupt the Democratic Election process with his Operation Chaos.

And who is doing most of the the lying?

McBush/McPalin ticket and their followers, the only way they will win is if they can get enough people to believe the lies just long enough.

You know.

Kinda the same way we got into the Iraq War.


...I can't understand why we are aren't ALL paying higher taxes...

Are you disputing that Gov. Palin is vengeful, mean-spirited, and elitist?

She fired the chief of police in Wasilla for supporting her rival.
She fired Moneghan for not doing her dirty work.
She harassed her ex-brother-in-law (admittedly he's scum, too) by persistently trying to get him fired and by illegally accessing and sharing his personal information.
She's a hypocritical whore: there are several sources to verify her adultery with Brad Hanson.
She tried to ban books - who the hell is she to determine who can and can't read books?

I should've mentioned that she is a liar:
She lied about the "Bridge to Nowhere."
She lied about her fiscal responsibility.
She lied about her opposition to earmarks.
She lied about her involvement in Trooper-gate.
She lied about why she fired Moneghan.
She lied several times in her speech about the lack of accomplishments of President Obama.

So history is about to repeat itself. And if it was appropriate to have contempt for Bush because he could never handle an essential part of his job, it will be appropriate to have the same contempt for Palin for not measuring up in the same way.

and the supporters here will continue to support "their" party over america and a better candidate just because they have to have a party or ideology to hate..fucking idiotic and pitiful.

you have to be fucking kidding?

Donnerboy,
How amusing. You accuse the Republicans of LYING when the Democrat's Vice-Presidential Candidate was driven out of the 1988 Presidential race for IDENTITY THEFT!
Of course, back then it wasn't called Identity Theft because the term had not been invented yet, but that is what he did.

No, he didn't steal a few lines from the Brit's speechs, like NOBama has done time and again in this campaign.

He out and out stole the man's life story and made it his own. THAT is lying of the first order.

The big question is, Who will Joe Biden appear as in this VP debate? George Washington? Abraham Lincoln? FDR? Bozo the Clown (seems like the most appropriate role for him). Perhaps spokesman for Hairclub For Men?
Yes, lucky that their noses don't grow every time they lie or neither NOBama nor NOBiden would be able to turn around on the stage without knocking someone over...

I hope they ask Palin about the "bridge to nowhere" that Obama is bashing her and calling her a liar for, even though Obama and Biden both voted FOR it! www.govtrack.us drsanity.blogspot.com

Even the Alaska Democratic Party site praised Palin for killing the "bridge to nowhere" and have since removed it from the site. littlegreenfootballs.com

SOFT BALLS.....lobbed, make that 'rolled' to her.

gee how things change

when this same person had the GALL TO ASK DEMS tough questions they were thrown to the wolfs and now they are worthless,.

you liberals are so easy to see right through


and whoever talked about obama and taxes,

lets see,

take more from the wealthy and give to the rest

doesnt that sound a little familiar comrade?????

AND EARMARKS

the year before she was elected alaska recieved 367 million
her first year they got 250 million and this year they will recieve 167 million
see how thats going?
can you understand that or will you have to look at the HUFFINGTON POST TO see how it is going lowere and lower


above info from C FUCKIN NN


it is well known now that the book banning charge was a scam or are you too fucking stupid to hear about that
some of the books she was to have banned in 1996 WERENT EVEN WRITTEN THEN........
and all she did is ask what the librarian would say if anyone ever tried to get her to ban books, somewhat different than the hitler reference I am sure is coming soon


You Rethugs are so clever! Nice twist on the Truth. But, she still has questions to answer on this matter.

Why was she asking HOW TO BAN BOOKS REPEATEDLY and why did she try to have the librarian fired later.

The McCain Campaign (Rethugs are so good at Campaigning but so BAD at running the Government) has made this a difficult matter to analyze by strategically presenting this candidate so late in the game.

Karl Rove is so very clever for a Weasel!

to answer your bullshit all you have to do is watch a program or read something


The Huffington Post has an interesting "read" on this. And I get to use that as a VALID reference because YOU quoted it first.

www.huffingtonpost.com

That is true, though not a comprehensive account of the matter. The librarian in question has admitted that she only ever heard from Palin in the abstract on the issue of whether books could be pulled from library stacks. After the librarian responded that she would oppose such a move, no further discussions were held with Palin. Certainly, there was no official list drawn up. However, in a fact the McCain email leaves out, Palin approached the librarian three times to ask about the possibility, which could legitimately appear to some as something of a pressure campaign (especially considering that Palin attempted to have the librarian removed afterward).

so BL2, do you still deny something happened at the Library in that Podunk little town way up there in Alaska when no one was looking?

Or, do you now understand now why there are questions still to be asked surrounding this "episode".

And when will the McCain Campaign finally realize the power of the Internet and the ability for us all to FACT CHECK HIS LIES?

He really should know how to use the Internet and understand it by now. My 13 year old understands and can use the Internet almost as well as me and I am an IT Professional!

Any updates on Amy Goodman stupid?

Certainly!

Someday, you too will learn to use the Google!

www.democracynow.org

Glad to be able to help!

BTW Chairpuddles -Don't mess with the Bull or you just might get the horn!

donnerboy,
You've outdone yourself this time. I asked for an Amy Goodman update and you provided a link that had nothing to do with Amy Goodman's arrest, or what laws the police supposedly broke.
Then you go on to tell me about the bull and the horn? Are you seriously retarded or just high on something?

Is it possible for you to be any dumber? Just answer the question.

Oh dear Chairpuddles! Did I post the wrong link in my hurry to do YOUR research for you? I am impressed you actually clicked on it. Did you happen to read it? I doubt in your hurry to Zing me. Indeed you have me puddles! I was in a hurry to go pick up my child. That looks like a link I was reading about regarding Amy's reporting on this Administrations regard for the rights of its Citizens to speak freely to power.

Here let me fix that and I'll even quote it so you won't have to "click" it.

www.democracynow.org

Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher told Democracy Now! that Kouddous and Salazar were arrested on suspicion of rioting, a felony. While the three have been released, they all still face charges stemming from their unlawful arrest. Kouddous and Salazar face pending charges of suspicion of felony riot, while Goodman has been officially charged with obstruction of a legal process and interference with a peace officer.--

Democracy Now! forcefully rejects all of these charges as false and an attempt at intimidation of these journalists. We demand that the charges be immediately and completely dropped.

Democracy Now! stands by Goodman, Kouddous and Salazar and condemns this action by Twin Cities law enforcement as a clear violation of the freedom of the press and the First Amendment rights of these journalists.

During the demonstration in which the Democracy Now! team was arrested, law enforcement officers used pepper spray, rubber bullets, concussion grenades and excessive force against protesters and journalists. Several dozen demonstrators were also arrested during this action, including a photographer for the Associated Press.

and the "latest" should anyone who cares get involved and speak your mind on this issue.

Thanks for helping me to correct that Puddles!

Everyone should go there and check me so see if I am really retarded like Puddles says!

Puddles is such a Joker when it comes to FACTS and the King of the One Liner and the Zinger!

Hooray!

Hey! Do we have someone for you!

Sarah Palin, the Queen of the One Liner and the Zinger! She too has trouble with FACTS!

DONNERBOY: "I'm an IT professional" I wouldn't brag about being an IT ASSHOLE. In my years as a Management Consultant you people have FUCKED up more systems and programs than any good you have done.

I have listened to the news today and I have a hard time believing the disgracefull BS you liberals are making up about Palin. This woman must have you ASSHOLE libs scared shit.

Without me you are nothing. I bet you used a computer to type that dribble. And this is so especially in McPoopypants world. He HAS to rely on the likes of me. He would have no clue if his system went down.

He probably can't even log onto a laptop yet considering he would have to memorize at least a 12 char password that has to change at least every 60 days. Think he could even handle that?

I also know that BushCo is also nothing without the likes of me.

How do you think all those White House Emails became suddenly "unavailable". And that little trick is keeping Bush out of court and jail right now.

And OMFG let something quit working around here! I'd like see "The Management " get things going again! They can't even fix the photocopier the secretary does that.

Yep, I know exactly how much I am worth to "The Management"! Especially when they can't get "logged on" and get to that stupid Email!


This hits a personal thing for me. When I was in the Navy and serving on a commando helicopter squadron the Navy decided to do a "PR thing" where the "girlies" were sent up on Harrier jump jets, at that time there were three girlies on the same Naval Air Station named Dawn so they did an entire PR thing about those three Dawns, one of them (not me) went up in the Harrier, her interview after the flight consisted of "the helmet messes up your hair and ruins your makeup" I saw said person at dinner the next day and said to her (paraphrasing) "what the fuck were you thinking? you have just single handedly given the male bigots a reason not to train women to be pilots you fucking idiot" Sarah Palin is the reason that a woman should not be elected president, cause she is doing the entire, lipstick, whiny female thing, she is giving the entire nation a reason to not elect her VP (and possibly president). Outside of the cameras and the press, my pilots let me fly a helicopter (I was an admin chief good god!) treated me as an equal (and in fact as a superior cause I was the one that kept things running), yah don't get respect by whining about being a woman, you get respect by being a woman in charge.

Your the zerox repairman donnerboy - a typwriter maintenance man - no more. You create nothing. The computer is a tool used by people that create things. Ozzie is right, we refer to the IT department here as nazis with a napolean complex. Overhead. Thats what you are, and easily replaceable.

I wouldn't brag about being a "management consultant". Don't companies bring in "management consultants" when they don't have the balls to fire people themselves? Corporate parasite.

I retooled your screed:

"I'm a republican" I wouldn't brag about being a republican ASSHOLE. In my years as a (blank) you people have FUCKED up more systems and programs than any good you have done.

"The computer is a tool used by people that create things."

Then there are the people who (note irony, class) created the computer.

-Hollerith

Sarah who?

Ah yes, Zat jumps in defending the typwriter repairman. So you disagree with my statement that the computer is a tool? Granted it is a great tool, but still just a tool - only as good as the information put in it. GIGO, was the term used back when I believe. Your brain is a far greater tool ZAT, probably better than most others.


You create nothing.

Realy jackass? What do you 'create' besides the wet spot on your pants when you see pictures of Caribou Barbie?

"Zat jumps in defending the typwriter(sic) repairman. "

moron flag

But since you can't even spell typewriter ...

which pregnancy...

the one she had that caused her and the first dude to elope? the one she had when she travelled cross country after her water broke? or the one that had 2 16/17 year olds having unprotected sex?

having said all that it is the gov's policies I find offensive, not her lack of judgement on personal matters.

The only thing Sarah Palin should give the lib media is her middle finger.
