2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line

Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line

These are people so hard up for things to whine about they are actually complaining that someone wants kids (and adults) to eat healthy. Just let the pure awesome of that wash over you. We have a country filled with fat, sick people who gorge themselves to epic levels. Someone suggests they should maybe eat healthier and you would think it was the flipping Inquisition! Ya know what will help with health care costs, if some of the tubbys worried less about whether they can have the big gulp with their Superamerica Corn Dog and maybe mix in a salad. (and yes that includes myself)

Ya dont like it...too bad the truth hurts. You want to lower health care costs, start by lowering people's cholesterol intake. The amount of crap that Michelle has taken over this is hilarious and shows that people will whine about anything if they dont like the messenger.

I am so glad that everything else is solved so our conservative friends can focus their attention on stuff like this. You want to know why the GOP is going to get trounced in the next Presidential Race it is because you worry too much about fake outrage crap like this (or the made up info on trips...did this one cost $100 million like Palin said the last one did?) and dont give two craps about the stuff that actually has a tangible effect on the problems of the average citizen. Keep it up, we will never hear the end of it from Rover as long as you do.

Does any politician care about the problems of the average citizen?

I'm just giving the people what they want. :D Fact is, conservatives have problems with Democratic First Ladies because the have problems with women in general, which is a direct result of not getting any for 30 years despite people like walrus' apparent use of roofies in his quest (thanks for sharing...I guess? :confused:).

Think about it: you go through your daily life, work your job, spend time with wife/kids/etc...who really has time to want to force women to have vaginal ultrasounds? I mean, who considers that a victory for themselves if a politician who supports that wins or a law like that gets passed? Conservatives, that's who. Its an ideology that's morphed from the "Morning in America" optimism of the Reagan era to a bunch of bitter old people spouting nonsense on a daily basis. Obama was wrong about one thing, these people aren't clinging to guns and religion. Few of them actually own guns, and even less actually attend church as they're caught up in the 1980's Jerry Falwell philosophy that voting Republican is just as good as attending service every week.

Excellent piece here on former right wing nutcase seeing the light and becoming a Clinton supporter:

David Brock reflects on his Clinton evolution

David Brock’s long journey trailing Bill and Hillary Clinton — first as a nemesis and now as an ally — is leading him to the couple’s former home state of Arkansas.

It’s there, in a highly anticipated speech Tuesday, that the onetime conservative writer plans to explain his transformation, and what the lessons of the opposition to the Bill Clinton presidency might mean with the prospect of a second Hillary Clinton campaign for the White House.


“I hope that it’s an informative conversation about the right wing’s 20-year obsession with the Clintons that continues today, and their zeal in the 1990s to try to destroy an American president,” Brock, the founder of the liberal media watchdog Media Matters, told POLITICO on the eve of his speech.

Brock added that in his address at at the Clinton School of Public Service in Little Rock, he would discuss “how conservatives upended many of our long-held ways of conducting politics that what they did then fundamentally reshaped how we engage in politics now. And I suggest some ways that people could come together to try to change those dynamics. And if not, I talk about how history could repeat itself again, given the current constellation that have targeted Hillary Clinton.”

Rover, you want to trim that to four paragraphs or are you going to make me do it?

Why not just say you don't want to answer the question. Yes I dislike most long term politicians, doesn't matter what party.
 
Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line

I'm surprised our resident Fark Independents haven't commented on Bruce Braley's snafu. You'd think politicians would learn the mic is always on and you're always being filmed. But apparently not.
 
Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line

And the problem with what Braley said is? It's not like he said anything about Grassley that is untrue and it wasn't even anything particularly nasty. But, I guess people need something to whine about instead of doing something productive with their time.

He's not even an idiot. Nothing at all wrong with what he said. I'm a highly educated engineer with tons of experience who's routinely sought out by world-class companies, but there's no way in heck I'm qualified to be on the Senate Judiciary Committee and I wouldn't expect my fellow engineers to be up in arms if a candidate pointed that out. Sheesh, thicken up your skin, farmers!

He's an idiot for the way he said it. I agree with his premise, but if you're running for Senate you gotta be more couth than that. It's not nearly as bad as many of the GOP cadidate's rape comments from the last election cycles, but it was still stupid. Especially from a front-runner that will be facing a no name candidate from the other side.

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq." -John Kerry, 2006

Similar gaffes, same stupidity.

I can see now how you excuse the idiocy the Republicans spew out every day.

Just saying that compared to a lot of stuff that's said, this was pretty mild. But, hey, whine all you want if that's what floats your boat.
 
Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line

Am I dreaming, or did Bob and I just get slammed by liberals for coming to the defense of a Democrat? Must be bizzaro-USCHO...

Some people will argue with you no matter what position you take or who support or not.
