"If you don't think that the Republicans have offered up some serious solutions then you just haven't been looking, Pdog. The Republicans offered many ideas for health care reform, and every single one of them was shelved by Reid and Pelosi."

"If anything the Republicans are, once again, becoming the "party of know". They have been shunning conservatism for far too long, and now they are starting to appreciate the fact that most Americans consider themselves conservatives rather than limp dick pansies like JC and his band of happy idiots."

O, please forgive me, Mr. Starbuck. I see now that my "1860" comment was the only example of hyperbole in this entire thread.

I stand corrected and will endeavor not to displease you again. At least not until the streets run with blood over Cap & Trade.

On a different note: Do you have different wigs you wear when you dress up like John Lennon? If so, howe many?

o omnipotent one....at least so in your own mind...i await with bated breath your explanation of where and when we have had people killing each other in kansas over cap and trade....has mccain clubbed anyone in the senate?....are you saying the country is about to descend into complete and total civil war over health care? such analogies are silly.

and how my wigs have anything whatsoever to do with this...you can explain that one too.



hyperbole: noun
Rhetoric.

1.obvious and intentional exaggeration.
2.an extravagant statement or figure of speech not intended to be taken literally, as “to wait an eternity.”

The question about wigs was prefaced by "On a different note".  It seems that an artist like John Lennon would require quite a few different hairpieces to imitate adequately. What about facial hair?

On an even differenter note:  What do you think John Lennon, whom I assume you have some degree of admiration for, would think about America in 2010?

Not a strawman, and not that it matters in the least, just a question.

Glibness aside, I'm sincerely sorry that anyone thinks Jesus comes off as "holier-than-thou". Omniscience can be a heavy cross to bear.




isn't a strawman argument, when you misrepresent the opponents topic, then instead of debating them you create another topic... or something like that.... I know Nanky is all smart an educated, but if you google it, you get some answers about a strawman argument, and it's not in-line with what he is saying you're doing.

RNC Mailer Includes Phone Sex Number


The bad press keeps coming for the Republican National Committee.


Fresh on the heels of a scandal over a nearly $2,000 charge to the RNC at a bondage-themed nightclub comes word that a fundraising mailer the organization sent out included a phone number leading those who called to a phone-sex line offering "live, one-on-one talk with a nasty girl who will do anything you want for just $2.99 per minute."


Politico has the story. The phone number included on the mailer is a 1-800 number that points callers to a different number offering a chance to chat with "real local students, housewives and working girls from all over the country." (You can listen to the call here; for mature ears only.)



The RNC said the situation arose because the vendor who made the mailer mistakenly used the 1-800 prefix instead of the correct 202 prefix. It did not tell Politico how many copies of the mailer were sent out.


While the phone sex number is the aspect of the mailer that will garner most of the attention, it was an isolated mistake; more pernicious in the eyes of many critics is the mailer itself, which was designed to resemble a census form.


The phone sex line was only discovered, in fact, because one of the people who received the mailer called the number to complain to the RNC about the fact that its fundraising solicitation looked like a government document.



Sarah Palin asks to be taken off invitation for Republican National Committee party

"live, one-on-one talk with a nasty girl who will do anything you want for just $2.99 per minute."


BY David Saltonstall
DAILY NEWS SENIOR CORRESPONDENT

Thursday, April 1st 2010, 12:41 PM


The former Alaska governor has asked the RNC to remove her name from an official invite to a New Orleans fundraiser next week, even though she'll be in the Big Easy for a separate GOP event.

The one-time Republican vice presidential nominee "will not take part in any RNC fundraiser in New Orleans," an aide told Politico.com.

The apparent snub comes days after federal disclosure forms showed the RNC spent nearly $2,000 earlier this year at Voyeur, a high-end, West Hollywood club known for its nearly naked staffers and live S&M acts.

Aides to Palin insisted her refusal to appear at the New Orleans event had nothing to do with the Voyeur scandal.

But fallout from the GOP's risque business expense has continued to roil the party.

Many big givers are said to be re-directing their cash away from the RNC and its chairman, Michael Steele - who has been under fire for months for lavish spending - and toward the party's more austere Senate and House campaign funds.

Internally, the RNC also axed the staffer who led the expedition to Voyeur, Allison Meyers. It was Meyers who got the RNC to reimburse the GOP reveler stuck with the evening's $1,946 tab.

Meyers headed the RNC's Young Eagles program, a fundraising effort aimed at the under-45 crowd which has also been suspended in the wake of the scandal.

All Young Eagle events - including a swank steeplechase event in Virginia's horse country - have been cancelled pending a review, according to an e-mail from a top RNC official obtained by Politico.

"We will also be looking at staff structure and measures for checks and balances," the e-mail noted. "We will devise a plan for moving FORWARD with the club."

While Palin may be ditching the RNC, she is still expected to headline a gathering next Friday for the Southern Republican Leadership Council in New Orleans.

RNC attempted to regain the high ground on Wednesday by noting that the Democratic National Committee also spends big bucks on plane travel, limousines and fancy events.

Some of the bigger ticket DNC events included $26,000 for tickets and food at Boston's Fenway Park, $13,316 at the Lucky Strike bowling alley in Washington, D.C., and a hefty $63,953 last October at Chicago's upscale Standard Club.

But DNC officials quickly noted that the RNC expose revealed nothing X-rated.

Jabbed DNC spokesman Hari Sevugan: "The DNC, unlike the RNC, does not conduct business at sex clubs with lesbian bondage themes."

I'm still waiting to hear if Mr. Starbuck glues on a full beard

We're all Africans. Our DNA can tell scientists exactly where in Africa each of our ancestors comes from.
Every one of us is here because a few hundred Africans survived climate change, starvation, or plague. Truth.

A baby of any nationality could be brought up in any other country and they would learn the language of this new country. They could perform any task that a locally born baby would. This is even true of primitive tribes that live outside of society.
Point being that which makes us human's was already in place before our ancestors migrated from Africa.

Each and every one of us can trace their ultimate ancestry to Africa. That's where it all started for humans.

Interesting translation, B.J. Another example of leftist accusation of racism against anyone who levies harsh criticism on our President.
Does not "affirmative action" imply unearned entitlement to anyone, regardless of race, etc?

You would be correct in assuming that I am resentful of our President's reckless policies, but your cheap accusations of racism are unfounded.
I actually thought about dismissing this accusation, but did not want to leave others wondering how I really felt.

Let me start be saying that I am an independent voter, and my political philosophy is center-right.
I live in a city that is predominately black, and I feel like I get along very well with the community.  
I have very few problems along these lines, and even fewer that cannot be resolved.

I vote in every election, regardless of what is on the ballot.
I have voted for candidates of various skin color, gender, etc. from both major parties.
I will admit though, to voting against "Dollar Bill" Jefferson. Is that "racism?"
I also voted for our first non-white Governor, a Republican. I'm bracing hard for your ridicule on that one!  

Racism in this world, IMO, won't go away in our lifetime, especially by people tossing accusations whenever something does not go "their way."

BTW, I live very comfortably in my middle-class lifestyle.
I just don't want that turned into a lesser lifestyle by an administration headed by a President with no real experience, and who pushes his idealistic agenda with Chicago-style politics.
Perhaps resentful is not the best word. I am repulsed by what is going on in Washington.
Geez, I can't wait for November 2010 and 2012!

underemployment has different meanings, which one is this? and is this your best negative stat, since other economic indicators show improvemnt? This is one stat you veered away from under Bush.... didn't he have one of the worst, in regards to low wage jobs? That would be a yes...

"Product-of-affirmative-action" (definition):  a term of resentment used by angry white racists to describe any African-American who has accomplished more than they have.


Interesting translation, B.J. Another example of leftist accusation of racism against anyone who levies harsh criticism on our President.
Does not "affirmative action" imply unearned entitlement to anyone, regardless of race, etc?

You would be correct in assuming that I am resentful of our President's reckless policies, but your cheap accusations of racism are unfounded.
I actually thought about dismissing this accusation, but did not want to leave others wondering how I really felt.

Let me start be saying that I am an independent voter, and my political philosophy is center-right.
I live in a city that is predominately black, and I feel like I get along very well with the community.  
I have very few problems along these lines, and even fewer that cannot be resolved.

I vote in every election, regardless of what is on the ballot.
I have voted for candidates of various skin color, gender, etc. from both major parties.
I will admit though, to voting against "Dollar Bill" Jefferson. Is that "racism?"
I also voted for our first non-white Governor, a Republican. I'm bracing hard for your ridicule on that one!  

Racism in this world, IMO, won't go away in our lifetime, especially by people tossing accusations whenever something does not go "their way."

BTW, I live very comfortably in my middle-class lifestyle.
I just don't want that turned into a lesser lifestyle by an administration headed by a President with no real experience, and who pushes his idealistic agenda with Chicago-style politics.
Perhaps resentful is not the best word. I am repulsed by what is going on in Washington.
Geez, I can't wait for November 2010 and 2012!    





Bravo EG! Great post. I particularly liked the last paragraph. I almost feel sorry for these Obamabots. It must suck to worship a hero made of sand, and watch as his popularity plummets, and his disasterous policies destroy his own party. The problem for the rest of us sane Americans is that we are screwed right along with the fools that haven't figured out the damage that this ideologue is causing to them directly. It is for this reason that I can't feel too bad for the the drones. They are blinded by pure partisanship and an ideology that is counterintuitive and counterproductive. They just haven't figured it out yet.

Did that definition come from Liberal Criminal Defense Attorney 101? You know Criminal Defense Attorneys are essentially professional LIARS.
