Last night here in Roanoke

Last night here in Roanoke VA there was a rally for her thighness in a downtown restaurant.  At the last count there were TWELVE (yes 12) supporters there.  Too funny.

That many? Did she bribe

More Cheating in Football!

Any of you participate in the annual Chunky Soup "Click for Cans" contest? Fans can log into a website each day, click their favorite team, and the team that gets the most clicks wins soup for the needy in their city. Over the past years it's been a horse race right up to the end, but last year, starting about halfway through, the Greenbay Packers started drawing votes in HUGE numbers. This could be attributed to a steady growth of fans logging into the site as awareness grew, but this past year they would have needed pretty much every fan logging in every day to sustain their numbers... or they found a way to cheat.

This year the Packers already have 226,000 votes, while the Colts at #2 have 150,000, and the Jags at #3 have about 56,000. The system is supposed to allow one vote per day per computer, but it's pretty obvious this year that there's some organized cheating going on.

Pretty much most of the libs I know are vegan.  I know conservative vegans, but I guess since most vegans are from 'the other side' I should suggest he give up his vegan lifestyle?  Afterall, it's VERY unrepublican of him, right?  I know of homosexuals who actually LIKE Fred and Mitt, one even decided they want Fred Thompson.  I guess you shouldn't vote for either one, afterall, someone you disagree with likes them too, right?

 

Choosing NOT to vote for someone who has great ideas merely because some fringe from the otherside is horridly mislead about said leader's position is not only stupid but speaks volumes to how low you Revolution haters will stoop to make the man look bad.

My advice, spend less time bashing the man you DONT want as president, and start HELPING the man/woman (talking Condi, not HRC) you DO want to be President.  Seriously, if half the mudslingers quit whining and HELP the one they think CAN be their best choice, perhaps we'd have a more competitive race. 

Afterall, Dr. Paul was seen as not having a snowball chance in hell.  Now he's got plenty of you scared (and I don't know why, like it or not, the man IS a conservative.)

CT, you are certainly free

CT, you are certainly free to your opinion, as am I to my own and all others to their own opinions.  However, I was merely commenting on how sad it is that RJ would say that since some crazy fringe group has convinced themselves that Ron paul is a truther or even sympathetic to their sentiments, that should be reason enough to change my mind as him as my canidate for President. (he isn't with truthers BTW.  He's on record, and I've seen it in person at his rally, where he said that indeed that he believes that it was ONLY islamofacists who orchestrated the attacks of 9/11)

 

I wasn't debating opinion, that's just retarded.  What I was saying is that RJ's logic has failed in this regard.  To say that if anyone you disagrees with shares a common goal or viewpoint, that they must REVERSE it merely on that fact is rediculous.  That's the problem WITH America today.  Anytime a change-hating neo-con and a left-wing bat-poo crazy person find something they agree on, they change opinions because *gasp* we CAN'T EVER agree with the enemy!  The whole concept is counterproductive.

Binxly...

Binxly - Ron Paul is NOT, I repeat, NOT a conservative. A reactionary, in some regards, but NOT a conservative.

Conservatives don’t want America rendered into a whiny, pathetic nation that cowers and hides from the entire world, with 300 million sheep waiting to be slaughtered. Paul LOVES that idea. (“But...but...” I can hear Binxly saying... ”I don’t care how whiny America is, a whiny America on the world scene WILL SAVE US SO MUCH MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”) This also shows Paul is an idiot when it comes to history. His idea was tried from 1918 to 1941. It did not work out too well.

Conservatives don’t view the Federal Reserve as a greater threat than al-Qaeda. Paul does.

Conservatives recognize that organizations such as the AARP are our largest lobbies, not an ally that Paul showers much contempt upon (Israel).

Conservatives don’t want to legalize drugs because conservatives don’t believe in inducing societal ROT. Paul thinks that’s a WONDERFUL idea!!! 

And it is not that he has ME scared, as much as he has me rolling my eyes...or, at least, the followers of his personality cult do.  All I ask is that just in case Ron Paul needs a resounding message to head back to the delivery room (where he belongs), we should just shut up and hold the election, just because.

Bruzilla - Hate to disagree

Bruzilla - Hate to disagree with you here but I do not believe there ia any organized "cheating".  What I believe is going on is an organized effort by loyal Packer fans to keep them out front. 

As someone who was born and raised in Green Bay I can tell you that any and all things Packer are treated like a religion.  To Packer fans this is another way to show their pride in their team.  On the one day in this contest they feel a few thousand votes behind the Colts I received no less than three emails from three different people reminding me to go there and vote.   

Yes we may be over the top with it but you will not find a team in this country with a more loyal fan base.  Prior to the Favre years they went 25 years with a single playoff appearance yet sold out every game and maintained a season ticket waiting list in the tens of thousands.

Also this year the contest was changed to add a "kicking game" where you could get up to 7 additional votes for each entry.  At the end of the day it is all in good fun and the winning team receives a huge donation for their local soup kitchens and homeless shelters. Here is the link for anyone interested....

That's crap, and you know it.

The truth is, when he tried to run, big government Republicans like DeLay were so hysterical they dredged up a Democrat to run against him as a Republican, so your "argument" collapses for anyone with even a clue about recent Republican party history. But whine-on, it's still amusing, even when you try to construct arguments that won't fly under a single standard! But it's funny to see you talking about the same big-spending Republicans (who generally LOST in 2006, unlike Dr. Paul) as if they belong in the same paragraph as "keeping their word." :)

That comment from one who routinely tells people that “They are full of crap as usual”, “failed ninth grade debate”, “dummy”, “illiterate” and another whole host of names. Contradictions have a very annoying habit of collapsing, don’t they?

Tell me something: what is conservative about hiding America from the world and having it defend itself strictly from defense (h/t to BD for that one)?  What is conservative about turning your back on the concept of an independent central bank?  What is conservative about isolationism (and save that "non-intervention" crap; that is isolationism by another name)?  What is conservative about inducing as much TOTAL ROT in society as possible? 

Oh, and to quote Sarcasmo (in regards to your subject line): “0 proof, as usual.” And if/when you do provide proof, would it be too much to ask that you submit proof in the form of a source I can evaluate?  Probably, and that would be VERY Sarcasmo of you.

Foreign Affairs (which I don't buy, just as you don't buy Reason) isn't the entire CFR. Why is CFR membership a qualification for the Presidency?

And why do all the RINOs share membership with Hillary and Barak Obama??? You sure don't answer questions too-well, because I keep askin' these and getting nothing from you except rants about a magazine which involve 0 thought on your part.

Face it, Foreign Affairs AIN'T the entire CFR. Deal with it. Embrace it. Or you'll remain unintentionally-funny.
JMR

Rally online with fans of Dr. Ron Paul.

Assumptions

Really? I don't buy Reason? Ever? Who says I haven't? Obviously you don't have agents monitoring bookstores in Houston.  Also, a book I recently read and have prominently displayed in my apartment is The Future and its Enemies by some gal named Virginia Postrel.  IIRC, Mrs. Postrel does have something remotely to do with Reason, correct?

Keep sticking your foot in your mouth.

Actually, I don't buy Foreign Affairs that often.  When I do I find it to be full of useful information. 

Why is CFR membership a qualification for the Presidency?  For a Libertarian who so prides himself on his knowledge of the Constitution, this is a fairly stupid comment.  I never saw CFR membership as a qualification in Article II.  But that's just me.  That being said, why is parading a candidate's complete ignorance of foreign policy a political virtue

I don't answer questions too well?  Speak for yourself and only yourself.  And I notice once again that you WHINE that my very accurate comment on the publication of Foreign Affairs requires 0 thought on my part.  The fact that you don't answer MY question proves that YOU don't answer questions well, and the fact that you WHINE about my not answering questions only proves you once again to be a hypocrite. 

I notice, to quote Sarcasmo, you have "0 proof, as usual" that I have ever stated that all the CFR does is publish Foreign Affairs.  Anytime I catch you or anyone else ascribing powers to an organization of pencil-necked geeks and pointy headed intellectuals that isn't there except in the imaginations of the paranoid, I will pose that question. It is a GREAT way for me to mock those who ascribe powers to them that simply are not there, as your ranting and WHINING prove.  To quote Sarcasmo: "Deal with it."  You should be aware that some time ago, I could have become a CFR member/candidate.  I looked into this and surely have the academic credentials/papers to do it, but I decided NOT to, as they surely would NOT like my "sorry, we tried" approach to foreign policy.  If those mealy-mouthed geeks really are a secret entity out to take over the world, or whatever the paranoid theory about them is, then propagating the Unsane Personality Cult throughout the world by the end of next year should be laughably easy. 

The CFR isn't what you make it out to be.  To quote Sarcasmo: "Deal with it.  Embrace it."  To quote Unsane: "Or remain a BFI."

Congratulations to Dum-Bell Prize Winner Algore!!!

Mr. Gore,

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate your most recent accomplishment.  Your committment to government control and socialism have given us a springboard towards the uptopia that Marx spoke of so many years ago.  In an era when more and more countries are gripping power in the hands of only a few politicos like the good old days of the Soviet Union (long live the workers!), it is a joy to see that your covert measures, masked as environmental preservation and fear-mongering have helped us move the world towards a state of bliss where people like Bush, Big Oil Executives and CEOs become a thing of the past.  A world where people will do what is best for the poor because we tell them to, where money, land and possesions are useless and Islam and or/ athesim is the dominant religion.

Albert, your environmentalism is just the kind of distraction we need for the populace to fall into line, by rejecting big corporations and business. And now that you have received this historic award, few can now stop our march towards victory.  Since you have joined the likes of Martin Luther King and Mother Theresa, our enemies, relegated to the ilk of talk radio and Newsbusters will be marginalized and crushed as the glimmer of this magnificent prize marks another triumph for communism, proving its demise is far from complete.

 

Sincerely,

Howard Dean

I was channel flipping last

I was channel flipping last night, and came across Nancy Grace's show on CNN. She and some guests were talking about this alledged conspiracy by some 15-yr old to go on a Columbine rampage in his high school. She kept showing video of tables covered with sinister looking shotguns, assault rifles, submachine guns, and pistols, and they were talking about how the mother should ne arrested for allowing her kid to buy all these guns, and how these guns showed that the kid was serious about going through with his attack.

The first thought that crossed my mind, as an avid military arms collector, was: "How does a 15-yr old kid get about $200,000 in weaponry?" I looked closer at the guns on the table and saw some features that mark them as airsoft guns, not real guns. Now I'm reading today that almost all the guns on the table were "air powered weapons", which is a hoot because airsoft guns can't even do the damage a standard BB gun can do. Grace also reported that "hand grenades" were found, but reports are now showing that these were infact standard paintball grenades that the kid had dumped the paint from and tried to put black powder into and "detonate" with a firecracker fuse. Anyone who knows explosives knows that a grenade made of soft vinyl plastic is not going to explode. The powder will start to burn, split the plastic, and have a brief flash of flame and smoke, but that's it.

So now we've gone from an aresenal complete with machine guns and hand grenades, to two .22 rifles (which my kids had at that age) and a 9MM rifle that is debateable as to whether a 15-yr old should have access to it.

Surely, you didn't expect facts from Nancy dis-Grace did you?

Not any more than you should expect to hear a correction [if you could stand to tune in and listen for one, that is].

Grace

The fact that you stuck around for more than five seconds of Nancy Grace tells me that you are a glutton for punishment.

Deficit (Lack of) News

Cavuto mentioned someting this the other day. Apparently, the deficit is at an all time low, and no one in the MSM has spoken or written about it. Yet, remember how all of the Libs and their pals in the press used the Deficit Arguement against the tax cuts AND making them permanent? It went something like this, "If we cut the tax rates, we will decrease the amount of money we collect. With all of the money the President is spending on the War on Terrorism, Iraq, etcetera, etcetera, we need to have that money." Amazing how when they are proven wrong they just ignore it and go one to the next suprious arguement against lowering the tax rates.

Reid is so full of hate

I have never seen a person that claims to be such a great Mormon that is so full of hatred for Bush, Republicans, and Christians. 

Though I don't agree with Mormons doctinaly I still think the majority do have high moral values. If that many showed up to hear Reid and applaud him then I have to wonder if they too are not  leaning towards liberalism like many other denominations in this country.

Thanks for the link JDW.
