Open Thread Friday

Photo of Matthew Sheffield.

This Friday's joke: A blonde and a lawyer were seated next to each other on a long flight. To pass the time, the lawyer suggested that they try to stump one another with trivia.

"If I ask you something that you don't know, you owe me $5. The same goes if you ask me something I don't know." The blonde refused.

"Okay. If you don't know an answer, you pay me $5, but if I don’t know an answer, I pay you $50." The blonde accepted.

The Lawyer went first. "What is the distance from the earth to the moon?"

The blonde didn't say anything, but merely reached into her purse, pulled out a $5 bill and handed it to the lawyer. Then it was her turn.

"What has four legs going up a hill, but only three coming down?"

The lawyer had no idea, so he gave her a $50 bill.

"So, what is it?"

The blonde said nothing, but merely reached into her purse and gave a $5 bill to the lawyer.

Which was covered in the world-famous Shrub Report® two days ago.

*pats self on back*

Oh, sorry I missed that, Ro

Oh, sorry I missed that, Rog. Anyway, since we're now in "pats self on back" mode, it's time for today's installment of the increasingly-infamous "I told you so report." These reports will likely go-on appearing until Fox actually does the basic journalism 101 they needed desperately to do about six or eight weeks ago. To pre-empt complaints, rather than whining to me about saying that I told you so again about this blatant bias that's being noted by sources entirely-unrelated to sarcasmo on NB, how 'bout simply contacting Fox News like I asked you to yesterday & asking them to do some journalism for once on the subject...

Anyway, regardless of what you decide to do, enjoy your Friday! (Emphasis mine.)

A Dark Horse Shines
March 16, 2007

What happens when the candidate whom most
people claim can't win then wins an online poll?

Well, they pull his name off the Web page and
declare a favorite the winner!

That happened at Pajamas Media, a website
that conducted a month-long online
presidential candidate poll. When Congressman
Ron Paul of Texas won the first week, the
Pajamas folks checked and said they found
spam voting going on, several people voting
over and over again. This happened to others,
too; Barack Obama, for instance. But Obama
stayed on. Ron Paul got nixed . . . despite,
after the system was allegedly fixed, the
Congressman still winning that week's polling.

Ron Paul may be a Republican, but he's his
own caucus, in a sense, often standing alone
in Congress. He'll vote against a bill for no
other reason than he judges it to be
unconstitutional.
Imagine! Most legislators
don't give a fig about the Constitution or
limited government. That's why Ron Paul's a
true outsider.

In his upcoming campaign for the GOP
nomination, he won't need to just pretend to
run against Washington. He's been the odd man
out there for a long time.

A "dark horse"? Well, let's call him a horse
of a different color. Which may explain why a
lot of people want to see his campaign
stopped at the starting gate.
The last thing
people who like the status quo want is this
dark horse running out front.

This is Common Sense. I'm Paul Jacob.

And now, today's Duke-basketball-free Shrub Report®:

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

A Shrub Report exclusive (sort of, I think haha). I have heard, from anonymous sources, that we should expect the Clintonistas to turn up the heat by 2008 and knock Osama Obama out of the running by revealing that Obama has at least one illegitimate child. Just a rumour I heard, so it might or might not be true. Remember you heard this here, and that it was not from the "Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy", but from the Clintons. Keep in mind Roger's First Rule of Liberalism: Accuse the Right of doing exactly what the Left is doing, while denying that the Left is doing anything at all.

Obama will be destroyed, but not by the Right.

Okay, on with the fun…

You know how I know you’re gay? You like Coldplay.

Have any of you eaten Chinese in the Columbus metro area in the past couple of years?

Who isn't bigger than Springsteen these days?

Today's Global Warming Update.

Karl Rove, ever the clever fella, combines his penchant for Italian with tuning up his Weather Machine.

Better-than-expected inflation data comes out. Stock market down. No, wait, the market is mixed. Dammit, now it's up.

The headline: "Northern hemisphere has had warmest winter ever". The reality? Okay, the past three months were the warmest for that period of time for the last 128 years, not forever. And just for the northern hemisphere. No media bias, right?

Quiz time:

Who said this: "Bush forced false confession of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed."

Was it:

A: Rosie O'Donnell

B:  The Palestinian Islamic Jihad

If you chose B, give yourself a cookie. If you chose A, Rosie probably already ate all the cookies.

The Worker's World Party delivers their report on Bush's visit to Latin America. Gee, I wonder who funded many of the anti-American rallies there. Hmmmmm…. All you Code Pinkies and International Answerettes should ask yourselves as you take that bus to DC to march on the White House: who is funding this, comrades?

Also, does this story deviate from Tumbler's daily pro-illegal rants at all? Remember, he is a Conservative. Riiiiight.

Can you believe it was only twelve years ago today that Mississippi finally passed the 13th Amendment, banning slavery in that state?

And finally, WTF?

Rachael Corrie Day

Hey, Rog, how could you miss Rachael Corrie Day?   Today's the anniversary of the day the misguided Corrie self-selected for extinction in front of a giant Israli bulldozer.   Apparently, her "martydom" is being pushed by the far-left group "International Solidarity Movement."    They're still calling it murder, even though evidence says otherwise.

Has anyone else's local newspaper printed anything?  One of our local anti-Semitic/socialist columnists, Bessy Reyna, is trying to pump it up...with the assistance of the leftist Hartford Courant.

But with Saint Paddy's arriving --a fine old Irish joke for ye, Me Boy.

O'Shawnessy says to them that Irishmen celebrate the good and the bad-- He went on to tell them; now let them all drink to his approaching demise. --Telling his friends, "I've only got a few weeks to live as I have been diagnosed with AIDS." The friends gave the old boy their condolences and they had a few more pints.

After his friends left, O'Shawnessy's SON whispers, "Dad, I thought you told Mother and me that you were dying from CANCER ! Why, you just told your friends that you are dying from AIDS!"

O'Shawnessy said softly: "Sure and I am dying from cancer, Son. -- I just don't want any of these booze hounds sleeping with your mother after I'm gone."

--Happy St Patrick's Day!

When I was fresh out of college, a bunch of college buddies and I paid a visit to a guy in LA we knew from high school. He took us to a Thai restaurant that was located next door to a veterinarian hospital - separated only by a kennel. I asked my buddy if that was where we got to pick our meat...

There is no sense in being stupid, if you can't prove it! - my dad V

This is a true story

I worked in East Chicago, Indiana and regularly went to a cheap Mexican restaurant with the best tacos imaginable. We showed up on a Friday and both the restaurant and business next door were closed and taped off. The place next door was a veterinarian office owned by the restauranteur's brother.

I only make my own tacos, now.

The vet killed and plucked chickens

McDonald's isn't good for you, I hear.

Years ago a madman entered a McDonald's in San Ysidro and killed a slew of the customers with a high-powered rifle. Ever since then i have hated fast food restaurants. Those places are bad for you. Stay away from them.

Yeah tumb...That rifle just w

Yeah tumb...

That rifle just walked in there all by itself and made fast food restuarants bad evil places to eat...yeah right.

Btw...was that the place where someone else had a gun and finally got to it and used it on the... you know...bad rifle.

wow, timer

I thought I was an old-timer; and you would get my black humor. Oh-- You must be a college graduate? To make you laugh, one must make a graphicly crude joke.

In college nobody ever gets the sly, subtle gags. Only when you're camping on the Church, priests, Bush, and Cheney.

Then they howl with laughter.

You see, I've always loved firearms. Mine is a .357 Magnum. It's all I can afford. I would never disparage a gun, though I do not belong to the NRA.

"Remember you heard this

"Remember you heard this here, and that it was not from the "Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy", but from the Clintons."

I fail to understand, roger

"does this story deviate from Tumbler's daily pro-illegal rants at all? Remember, he is a Conservative. Riiiiight."

Are these people objecting on account of racism, or because they're commies, or what?

Their signs are direct enough: We want to Live in Peace." etc., With that much I agree. With their objection (you call that rant) to the guys' racist web site, OK. Maybe he's a racist; who knows? All I know is, they got an apology from him.

Let me know why my "daily rants" are even PRO-ILLEGAL, won't you ? It's almost daily I state without any equivocation that I'm FOR border enforcement, FOR deportation, FOR conviction of all felons, and AGAINST open borders. Yet you label me as pro-illegal.

I think you just have a hard on for Tumbler because he believes you hate Mexicans. And he's not afraid to say so. (No need to derail this thread, I state my gut feeling about you, nothing more.) You nurse your grudge by repeating the same falsehood almost every day. But you don't think I have a right to dispute with you? Gee; you're the Big Shot here, Rog. I'm only ONE, old guy who doesn't hesitate to call a spade a spade. I'm not politically correct.) --You're on a racist, white supremacist crusade.

Not everybody here is-- I don't think Brent Bozell, or Tim or Matt or anybody in the masthead are any kind of racist. They're straight arrow, and they have to allow you your freedom of speech. So, go ahead; incite us to hatred. I don't have the least doubt that THEY only see you as "Tough on Illegal Immigration," and see me as, "Unhappy About anti-Mexican Hate Speech." They don't see me as "Pro-Illegal Immigration." I don't see HOW.

We just present two sides of the story. (Yours the Veiled Bigotry side.) I'll tell you my side: The "Stand Your Ground Against Haters" side. Each side has freedom of speech, Roger. We'll meet again.

How about the new book comin

How about the new book coming out next week by R. Emmett Tyrrell from The American Spectator called "The Clinton Crack-Up". I see among the many more Clinton scandals/lies/corruption/hypocrisy/etc. is an item about more adultery from The Great Stainmaker.

"During Clinton’s retirement there have been other ladies, though most, according to my sources, have been one-night stands with hostesses on Clinton’s speaking tours."

So while Sick Willie has been making $40 million in speeches the past 6 years, often in foreign countries in front of loudly cheering and swooning crowds, he then goes back to his hotel and has sexual relations with that woman. (What does Bill Clinton say to Hillary after sex? Answer: I'll be home in 20 minutes, dear). [Of course now they seldom if ever even sleep under the same roof. She really "sticks by her man"!].

Well if some more women come forward to say that since Bill Clinton left office they had sex with him, he groped them, he sexaully harrassed them, etc. I guess Hillary will say it's the vast right wing conspiracy at work against her "husband" again! (Oh wait! Just a couple days ago she already reused the vast right wing conspiracy! And never mind that the first time she used that line a stained dress proved Bill did have an affair (37 actually) with Monica Lewinski! Hillary, you are a fake phony fraud LIAR!).

HE- love R.E. Tyrrell's stu

HE- love R.E. Tyrrell's stuff. Hope this will be a CBC Main Selection! Can't wait!

Speaking of Blondes... Valeri

Speaking of Blondes... Valerie Plame-a-gator -  "My name and identity were carelessly and recklessly abused by senior officials in the White House and State Department," Plame testified. "I could no longer perform the work for which I had been highly trained."

Plame also repeatedly described herself as a covert operative, a term that has multiple meanings. Plame said she worked undercover and traveled abroad on secret missions for the CIA.

Plame said she wasn't a lawyer and didn't know what her legal status was but said it shouldn't have mattered to the officials who learned her identity.

Yep, she's blonde. And it seems she's become quite a celeberty with the Hollywood elites making her "covert operative" status rather "un"-covert!

And her defense in this whole useless drama is Rove leaked, Bush knew, Libby talked to reporters about it, poor me... How Clintonian...  

gxa,I heard the blond bimboet

gxa,

I heard the blond bimboette on the whole endless saga..that is OVER btw...what a wealth of knowledge she is, this is what the CIA has as a secret spy eh?

No wonder we are in so much trouble in this country!

I listened to the majority of Snout Face (Waxman) hearings today...and really they got put to shame...they were really radical towards Victoria Tunsing of course...she wrote the law on covert and non covert agents et...it was disgusting the way the kept interrupting her, that Diane Watson is a real whizbang too...along with Holmes-Norton ...actually the whole thing was comical IMO.

She already has a two million dollar advance for her story in Hollywood, what better way to add to it...eh?

I just can't wait for the civil lawsuit myself...it will be fun. 

The covert status of CIA offi

The covert status of CIA officers should not be known AT ALL to non-cleared persons or to ANY ONE on the "Georgetown cocktail circuit."

I have not been able to locate the quote concerning Plame's ability to realize a tail but if she is working at the U.S. center, taking her children to school, walking in and out of an office, how could she be covert?

JDW

Wounded skier, beware of mistakes.

News media: Scoreboard for terrorists

I once had a neighbor who did covert work for the CIA for years. He was the typical little-league coach type. For years, he and his wife said he worked a desk job at the IRS. His wife threw a retirement party for him a few years back and he floored everyone when he told us he'd worked for the CIA for the past 30 years. I would imagine a covert agent would take her children to school and walk in and out of an office. They wouldn't be very good if they wore black trenchcoats and snuck in and out at night.

I feel ashamed of myself, Mighty. There's no call to make fun of a hard-body cat like Dave. It was either him or R J; who just called me a parasite. Co-incidently it was the cockroach, a favorite pejorative used by racists here to defame Mexican illegals. So, since Dave found that funny, it seemed he would also find Tumbler's little gag funny. I know he did; why are you unhappy?

EVERYTHING is "racist" to this demented old

Tumbles, you're no different than the other phony race hustlers...like Sharpton and Jackson.  EVERYTHING is "racist" to you.

Actually la cucaracha is an old and popular and mexican corrido folk song....but you're still a demented parasite, Tumbles.

Dang RJ,

Now you've got me humming and singing that song outloud since I saw your first post about it...

'And, friends, they may think it's a movement."

Just think, BT, if half the viewers on this site clicked on that link and if they are now uncontrollably humming la cucaracha, well, dang, we just might have a movement, and friends.....

"...if three people do it, three, can you imagine, three people walking in

la cucaracha

Further, as the remedial-drugwar-historian around these parts, I can say that the song in question is actually about neither bugs or Mexicans.
JMR

it's hard to believe

Amazing that now the neighborhood Beavis & Buttheads want to tell an hispanic what a cockroach is called in Spanish. Especially revealing, because the guy who calls me one first designates for us I'm a parasite, i.e., cucaracha. Just have it your way guys. It's unimportant, except that Dave thought it was O-so-funny. And it was. I don't complain.

Neither should any of you. Learn to take it as well as dish it out.

No, you dement

No, el demento, everyone here understands that it's YOU who attempted to make into a racist thing.

Folks, IMO the song evolved

Folks, IMO the song evolved from being a joke among his men about Pancho Villa's car, which had severe breakdown-issues making it often-useless, into a song about weed (which can also make users "useless" while they're under its effects) not because cannabis was their drug of choice (which was probably alcohol) but because it was practically free, which was all they could afford. I don't find that most US citizens can actually imagine real poverty unless they've been elsewhere and seen it. Those of us who have, know. And I don't think there are nearly as many racists on this board as this guy seems to imagine...
JMR

not talking about the song

Please, sarcasmo

The song was not what R J had in mind, it was the cockroach, or "parasite".

Yes, the car was referred to as a cockroach that doesn't want to walk. Yes; a question, "Why won't la cucaracha (cockroach car") walk "caminar" --?"

Answer: Because he requires some pot to smoke, then he'll walk.

I have no idea what anyone

I have no idea what anyone here has in mind except me, but I really don't think RJ was saying that by referencing the song. And I've disagreed plenty with RJ before & no-doubt I will-again...
JMR

When you're right, sarky....

You're right, you're right, you're right, and you're right. 

Four for four.  ;^>

please, sarc

Please Sir;

R J wasn't "referencing a song." he was referencing a cucaracha. That is, a bug, a cockroach. A parasite. Not the song. The song is titled, "The cockroach". Stay in your children's side of the pool. You're in over your depth.

Why am I unhappy?Perhaps be

Why am I unhappy?

Perhaps because nearly everyone you call a racist on this board is not.

Maybe because there are plenty of liberal moonbats we should be tearing new aholes, instead of each other.

Or it could be because a thread that started with a funny blonde joke got derailed (by you) when you picked a fight. (Although I must admit there were several chuckles at your expense)

Or it just might be that NB is supposed to be about pointing out liberal media bias, something that gets difficult to do when someone comes in with a chip on their shoulder and has but ONE agenda, in your case racisim!

"There are two types of people in this country; those who provide freedom and those who enjoy it." MM says...
