Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Top GOP officials are growing increasingly uneasy about the direction of the McCain presidential campaign. "McCain's campaign seems not to have a game plan. I don't see a consistent message," said Ed Rollins, a veteran of Republican presidential campaigns.

Oh, i get it because he is old and his name starts with Mc. Very clever, did you come up with that all by yourself?

And yet he's still neck and neck in the polls with Barextracrispy Osama

that is because the repubs are fucking great at mudslinging

the best

no doubt a formidable beast

Sal,
Does Rob's post not get a response in kind from your 'department of mockery for nick name assignment'?

Guess whats good for the goose is good for the goose.

I bet you blew a gasket when W and the boys sent the "McCain has an illegitimate black child" campaign didnt you.

Aww do you feel singled out? Would it help if i officially reject rob's comment? Should i organize a press conference? No, robs is not funny either but he probably did not spend all night thinking of it.

Sal, does McBucketlist work for you because I really value your opinion.

No it's not the first time, but it's about as funny as the first. The nice thing about it is when someone uses one you immediately assume they have yet to hit puberty and can ignore their posts accordingly.

Well we all know what happens when you assume.

So, is it fair to conclude that you all are racist against the Scottish and Irish? Or are you just reverting back to your grade school name calling skills?

I thought we were yet to be promoted from grade school? And the fact that I'm 100% Irish sorta gives me immunity. But do continue your rant.

"And the fact that I'm 100% Irish"


I dub thee immune.

Yea! Thanks, my brother.

Hey Jo,

Add McBullshit to your list.

. But the bulk of those interviewed expressed serious concern about what has appeared to be an aimless campaign so far, one that has failed to take advantage of a four-month head start on Democrats and has showed little sign of gaining traction

Maybe Gampy McBullshit is just forgetting what his campaign message should be.

He can't have Lieberman whispering in his ear 24/7 you know.

So, is it fair to conclude that you all are racist against the Scottish and Irish?

His name is McCain. How is McWhatever a slur against the Irish comparable to calling him a mick, rather than just being a play on his name?

62000 American jobs gone last month and McSame celebrates by pimping free trade with two narcocracies.

Nothing wrong with that stratergy.

And the fact that I'm 100% Irish sorta gives me immunity.
Posted by Jomama

Is immunity only given when you're 100% Irish?

can a certain volume of Jameson's make up the difference?

My Italian German Scottish side wants to know.

"can a certain volume of Jameson's make up the difference?"

HC...

Silly you. A certain volume of Jameson's can always make up the difference.

Hey Jo,

Add McBullshit to your list.

Immunity? Might give you a bit of sympathy at the most...how's AA comin' along you haggis eatin' leprechaun?

McCain needs Karl Rove and he needs to start going after Obama on his lack of experience, his liberalism, his tax raising policies, his anti-free trade, his isolationism, his flip-flops, and his floppy ears.

you haggis eatin' leprechaun?

Haggis is fine (gag)Scottish dining. Don't confabulate us with those potato popping paddy pumpers.

How is McWhatever a slur against the Irish comparable to calling him a mick, rather than just being a play on his name?

Because the whiners want it to be.

Is it flip flopping, just plain lying or signs of senility when McCain says he doesn't know much about economics and 6 months later says he never said that? Just wunnerin...

McCain needs Karl Rove and he needs to start going after Obama on his .... his flip-flops,


Oh the dear sweet irony.

Getting Ousted Pronto

McFlipFlop has his own issues

thinkprogress.org

STEPHANOPOULOS: So was it a mistake to solicit and accept his endorsement?

MCCAIN: Oh, probably, sure. []

STEPHANOPOULOS: So you no longer want his endorsement?

MCCAIN: I'm glad to have his endorsement. I condemn remarks that are, in any way, viewed as anti-anything. And thanks for asking.

"His name is McCain. How is McWhatever a slur against the Irish comparable to calling him a mick, rather than just being a play on his name?"


You missed a bit of sarcasm there. The idea is that you can barely say get the word obama out of your mouth without being considered racist, let alone his middle name. I figured if that the game mccain should be able to play too. So i have declared (with all my might and power) that henceforth any pathetic attempt at humor or insult derived from Mc and whatever random word you wish to put after it is racist.


P.S. Irish and Scottish are excluded and allowed to make any reference they want.


P.P.S. That applies only to the racism bit, the part about being childish and dumb still applies.

Silly you. A certain volume of Jameson's can always make up the difference.

Posted by Danforth

Just checking because I can't drink guinness and I know that Bushmill's isn't exactly considered Irish since its made in England now.

BTW is it true about being sure to know what type of Irish pub you're entering (Catholic or Protestant) before you order Jameson's or Bushmill's?

And am I responsible for turning another thread toward whiskey?

Why worry when you have Diebold, Republican Secretaries of State, SCOTUS and utter contempt for the proletariat and Democracy.

I have said even here that sometimes it seems like we have to question just how much he wants to win.
just look at what has happened this past week.
the dems in their normal viscious and mean and ruthless and dispicable and NORMAL behavior went after his military service.....the real irony....any hint at that SAME FUCKIN THING FROM US and we get nailed to the wall about it and here the DEMS ARE saying it out loud and the DR liberal is complicit in that irony by thier silence in the least.....

the dems stop at nothing and use surrogates so that the GREAT MESSIAH can stand aloof and get more sweet mortgages deals and more land grabs from rezky and still stay above it all.
mccain will have to get into the mud with the dems to keep the white house and the SC ruling on giving the enemy the same rights as the rest of us is reason enough to steer as clear from the left as we can no matter HOW MUCH TO THE MIDDLE BARRYWAYne moves......

"P.S. Irish and Scottish are excluded and allowed to make any reference they want."

For the most part Mc = Irish and Mac = Scottish.

and you know just to lighten this a little. I am sitting here listening to the colbert report after the daily show.
he is one funny guy....most more so than stewart....speaking as to personal funny traits. I am a little bored with stewarts mannerisms, but colbert is just funny.......

and now back to our regular programming

"BTW is it true about being sure to know what type of Irish pub you're entering (Catholic or Protestant) before you order Jameson's or Bushmill's?"

I have not been there yet but from what I've heard, this is mostly bullshit - especially in the Republic of Ireland. People are tired of that shit. Its more likely to be an issue parts of Northern Ireland but those bars aren't going to carry both brands anwyay.

BL2 - are you kidding man. The good Gen. Wes (unless I heard and read it wrong) said this ""Well, I don't think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be president," Clark replied." from here:

WES

How exactly is that statement and the rest condemning McCain's military experience. Here's a news flash from the MDL - You certainly do not have to have military experience to be POTUS nor be a POW. There's no check box on the application that says - Military experience Yes or NO. If you check no then you are not qualified.

I'm so sick and damn tired of this flip-flop, he said-she said shit. Let's line up a debate a month or more, with the seats filled roughly 50-50 supporters of each candidate and get the agendas on the table.

the dems in their normal viscious and mean and ruthless and dispicable and NORMAL behavior went after his military service

Unlike the GOP, who has too much respect for the troops to ever go after a candidate's military record, even if he has won medals for valor?

Save it for the choir.

mdl.....there were also newspaper articles and comments from media pundents about his service and we read much here about how he wasnt a leader and it might still be up. there have been plenty of dem attacks on his military service in the past week and we wont stand still for them. again, not when at the slightest hint of even discussing things like kerry's medals and shit like that, we would get savaged about it.

again.....it seems that being on a pt boat or a swift boat is enough to be president but flying a plane and getting shot down isnt.....I dont think so.

McStrategery? Right now there ain't none, except hollerin' nigger, mooslim and librul grannie. But there's always the "October surprise." It may involve nuking Iran, since Iraq's oil is securely ours. Other that that, it can't be much beyond illiterate creaky-jointed Drudge righties sputtering in the wind. herm

Posted by silver_ironist


yeah right....I dont disagree with your statement if it is meant to show that the right will fight back but if you are saying that the dems arent JUST WHAT I SAID< then you are asleep at the wheel.

I dont think I have read a story about mccain taking FAKE MEDALS and throwing them over the fence at the white house just to make a point......
so you see, we can revive all that stuff if you want, but my point is that mccain is being too nice to battle with dems. they will run over pussies like that for breakfast. I didnt mean that the right couldnt, I mean that he WONT.......

and oh yeah.....mdlman......I believe the thread ABOUT MCCAINS military service has been taken off now but I believe that it had about 500 or so posts on it....much more than the normal lifespan wouldnt you say......and I would bet that most of the posts were being critical of his military service.
the left just cant have things both ways ANYMORE

BLT,
When the right went after Kerry's service, it wasn't to fight back. They started those festivities.

"the left just cant have things both ways ANYMORE"

Both sides are total hypocrites on many issues. You have to be in order to support one of the parties and pretend that the two are different, that one is bad and one is good, etc.

You all take the position of "When it benefits my party, the issue is huge and important, when it benefits the other party the same issue is trivial. When my candidates are criticized for something, its just nit-picking. But if I can blast the other side on the same issue, its a big deal...."

To people who aren't beholden to a corrupt political organization like the GOP or DNC, this is obvious. That you people can see it in the "other side" and not yourselves shows a tremendous capacity for willful ignorance. And I'm talking about anyone who unconditionally supports either party.

the dems in their normal viscious and mean and ruthless and dispicable and NORMAL behavior went after his military service.....the real irony....any hint at that SAME FUCKIN THING FROM US and we get nailed to the wall about it and here the DEMS ARE saying it out loud and the DR liberal is complicit in that irony by thier silence in the least.....


Really? And in 2004 the rightwingtards did not attack Kerry's service at all?

Just another case of rightwing "Don't do as we do.... do as we say" mentality.

BTW, when does saying being a fighter pilot does not qualify a person to be POTUS count as "going after military service"?

Do you think that every single person that has ever served in the military is fit and qualified to be President of the United States?

"again.....it seems that being on a pt boat or a swift boat is enough to be president but flying a plane and getting shot down isnt.....I dont think so."

The remark was doesn't automatically qualify you for POTUS, not that a swift boat commander is more qualified...getcher facts straight young man.

BL2 - Bashing McCain for his service to the country is retarded, IMO. His service was honorable and I thank him and all veterans wholeheartedly for giving me the right to spew my opinion on this blog. With that being said I don't think being in the military automatically qualifies one to be POTUS no matter who you are. I never though John Kerry's military service made him a better choice to be POTUS.

I'd rather have some honest debates about policies that each wants to implement instead of mud slinging.

the dems in their normal viscious and mean and ruthless and dispicable and NORMAL behavior went after his military service.....the real irony....any hint at that SAME FUCKIN THING FROM US and we get nailed to the wall about it and here

gee BLT, the Dems are being kinder to McSame than your buddy GWB was in 2000. Didn't hear Obama say Mcsame was crazy from torture or committed treason or burned up 140 sailors, like the Bushbots did. I don't remember you complaining when loverboy was slamming McSame back then. Or do you want to go on record as saying you are ashamed of the way GWB campaigned back then?

It's the former bartender in me... oh well.

BLT,

you managed to correctly notice that Barack is, unfortunately, racing towards the middle. So is McSame.

Your other assertion is ridiculous. No one smears their opponent more consistently and repeatedly than the Republicans. They focus on two or three talking points and repeat them through paid columnists, TV and radio talking heads, Congressmen, and paid political consultants. Their rule is the bigger the LIE, the more often it needs to be repeated.

Democrats, are more diverse and less disciplined, confusing their audience with multiple individual messages that a redneck or evangelical is incapable of even understanding, much less accepting.

To people who aren't beholden to a corrupt political organization like the GOP or DNC, this is obvious. That you people can see it in the "other side" and not yourselves shows a tremendous capacity for willful ignorance. And I'm talking about anyone who unconditionally supports either party.

Talking like that will get you an interview with the men in black, Mr. Faulk.

RCADE, how about renaming it the "McDrudge" Retort?


McStupid is betting that he will be elected by the people that can't possibly bring themselves to vote for a black-ish candidate.

That's why he can change this position depending on who he's talking to or what day of the week it is. He thinks he's a shoe in.

I think he underestimates the level of disqust people have with our current batch of criminals.

Lip,

By promising to only fuck up the country for four years he thinks America will look at it as hedging their bet.

Yeah that worked out so well with Shooter Cheney.

Well--now that McCain switched out Davis for Schmidt I for one would like to see some results on the campaign.

Nice list Jomama but you fergot "McNasty"

In High School he picked up the name McNasty from his peers but in his high school yearbook they had another name fer him.

The "Punk".

And yet he's still neck and neck in the polls with Barextracrispy Osama

~Wobbles the Wonder Lizard.

Au contraire, mon frere.

Barack is ahead in every poll and RCP's aggregate has him up by 5.7 at this moment.

www.realclearpolitics.com

He's gonna WIN by double digits.

Deal with it.

Be Well.

On Topic?

McCain's Strategery?

Keep saying "my friends" in that wispy weak-assed voice he uses to try to make people fergit that he's a rage-o-holic and has been his entire life.

Also to try and downplay the fact that he's one one of the asswipes who thought the American troops were gonna be "greeted as liberators".

Plus his weak economic credentials.

Plus the fact that he's older than dirt and bat-shiat insane.

Plus that whole calling his trophy wife a "cunt" thing.

Plus the Keating 5 Scandal.

Plus the fact that his public mispeaknig skills have started to rival that of Dumbya's.

Plus his inability to keep Shias and Sunnis straight in his own head.

Basically were talking about a lot of deflections and obfuscations.

Be Well.

"I thank him (and vets) ... for ... the right to spew my opinion on this blog."

Don't waste your breath, Mdl. They had nothing to do with it. herm

of course the individual is who you look at but what I am talking about is that the left forgets about.....
"IM john kerry and IM reporting for duty"
all that was, was an attempt to show that his military did make him more qualified to be commmander in chief......

Democrats, are more diverse and less disciplined, confusing their audience with multiple individual messages that a redneck or evangelical is incapable of even understanding, much less accepting.

Posted by nutcase at 2008-07-


horseshit......we read you people like a fuckin book........

and there is no group in the conservative side with the wherewithall and money of george soros.....so that doesnt even come close to leveling things.

the right HAS to report and talk about things other wise it would go unreported more often than not.

Do you think that every single person that has ever served in the military is fit and qualified to be President of the United States?

Posted by 726 at


of course not. that would make as much sense as a liberal fuck trying to tell me that I have no right to talk about the war on terror without enlisting.
