I love it! haha
Sweeeet!
Yeah! Hilarious!
Republicans never get BJs from GIRLS!
(Just from underage male interns, gay prostitutes in Colorado motel rooms, and complete strangers in airport men’s rooms.
I take it back – pro-life activist, Army of God member and Evangelical preacher John Burt was sentenced last week for raping 15-year-old girls at his home for unwed mothers…)
Why don’t you beat this 10-year-old news item to death while you celebrate your 35-year-old defeat.
Lighten up, Laura. It’s funny!
I didn’t get it at first. =/ So it wasn’t funny.
Then I got it, and it still wasn’t funny. It didn’t make me mad or anything, but I just didn’t find it funny.
FF 3:52PM
Democrats don’t always either. The late Democrat congressman Jerry Studds who had sex with a male underage intern, and continued to enjoy much stature in the Democrat controlled congress while espressing little in the way of remorse.
Not to mention congressman Barney Frank who’s roommate ran a male prostitution ring from their home that Barney supposedly knew nothing about.
Not to mention Hillary’s husband accused of everything from exposing himself to rape.
And need I elaborate on Ted Kennedy?
Lighten up. The bumper sticker is true, face it. Yeah I know, Bill did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. Well, it wasn’t really sex. How many errant husbands and boyfriends would get off the hook with that one? What I thought was really hilarious was Gennifer Flowers, you know, the mistress Bill Clinton only had sex with once in eleven years, IS planning to vote for her ex-boyfriend’s wife.
Maybe though that depends on what the definition of is is.
It’ll be funnier when she’s the President.
You know she will be, too.
SOMG,
Unlike you I’m not a prophet.
You don’t need to be a prophet in order to prophecy.
SOMG,
Maybe, but it sure helps.
Check this out if you don’t believe me:

Jill you’re running for president!?
Wow you are ambitious! Good Luck!
“Unlike you I’m not a prophet.”
I don’t know if I’m a prophet but my dreams always come true. I dream break-ups before they happen and meeting new people, specifically my dreams tell me where I’ll make a new friend and a general impression of what they look like (hair color, height, style). I also dream what jobs I get and don’t get and once I dreamed of the death of a close friend a week before it happened.
If that woman gets elected I am moving to Belize and Cam is comming with me….
Or Ron Paul, I’ll run screaming from the country as well if he weasels into office…
I think I’m the only one staying in this country if she wins. You know what that means? I gets to be Vice President!!! HUZAH!!!
Oh my goodness you guys. I just watched a 1-hour documentary on the Westboro Baptist Church.
It was crazy.

I think this is the link if you all want to see it, it’s reallly interesting.
Ah I’ve seen video’s on them. They can believe what they want, do what they please as long as it’s at an appropriate distance.
For the record I don’t think they really believe what they’re saying they only want money but that’s not my opinion. They could be doing what they think is right.
Hey PIP let’s join a cult.
Kool Aid Alert!
It’s hard to believe such nice people are capable of believing such hateful things. He delves into that in his piece.
LOL Jess I would love too! Could we serve grape?
*to
I’m liking this Louis Theroux guy. Interesting pieces!
ahh night
You want GRAPE Kool Aid!?!
Never mind, you can’t be in my cult anymore.
Jess 1:06am
I will dream about being in certain houses but I cannot figure out who they belong to. Somewhere down the road I will visit the house for the first and recognize it as the one in my dream. I have forseen a few events in dreams, but its sporadic and I usually never suspect I foresaw anything until it actually happens.
Now I dream of a basement but can’t place it.
The eeriest one was years ago when I dreamt a plane exploded over our neighborhood. I even mentioned it to my mother since it was so odd.
A few weeks later a PanAm jet blew up over Lockerbie Scotland.
lol Jess, fine. I’ll be all by myself with my grape kool aid :P
mmmm…did somebody say grape kool-aid?
Dude, now I’m thirsty. I like grape, but man…i do love me some cherry or fruit punch. :D
mmmm fruit punch…
It’ll be funnier when she’s the President.

She’s apparently the projected winner of the Nevada primary.
She was supposed to lose there – you know – like she was supposed to lose in New Hampshire.
(Knockin’ wood and holding breath for Super Tuesday…)
ooh fruit punch sounds fun!
Laura, she fifnt get the most delegates though, Obama won that.
Woot. Seems obama has been doing well with delegates, even if he isnt “winning” the states.
fifnt = didnt
Dan,
Please excuse my ignorance but how can Obama get the delegates without winning the states?
Ah, the electoral system.
you dont need to win the popular vote to win the election, like what happened in 2000, and i think one other time in history.
Im not exactly sure on the whole process, but it depends on the percentage of votes in each individual county or something I think? and the percentage in each county relates to the number of delegates from that county you get. So even if you come in second, if you consistently performed throughout the state, you get more delegates than someone who didnt consistently perform but got the most votes overall, if that makes sense.
Dan,
Also, I heard that in Michigan most black voters, especially in the Detroit area, selected “non-committed”, whatever that means, over Hillary.
Do you know anything about this?
Dan,
Thanks.
Mary, the Michigan primary for Dems essentially had no effect because Michigan lost their delegates as punishment for moving up their primary.
Supporters of Obama and Edwards were asked to vote “non commited,” as they pulled out of the state after the punishment was handed down by the party, I think it has to do with write ins not really being counted at all or something? Im not entirely sure on that whole process, but Hilary essentially got all the Dem votes in Michigan for that reason, and because a few Dems entered into the Republican primary so they felt they had a voice since the Dem primary didn’t matter.
I just did a quick google, and it says uncommited essentially means a delegate who is “up for grabs” at the convention, meaning they arent “committed” to a certain candidate.
And apparently in Michigan, write-ins arent permitted, thus the non committed option.
Dan,
Thank you very much. I’ve always had a heck of a time making sense out of all this primary election stuff. You clarified things and I appreciate it.
Hey Dan,
Check this out:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/democratic_delegate_count.html
While you’re at it, you might want to look up “uncommitted delegates” and “superdelegates.”
Laura, Im aware hilary is up…for now.
But in all honesty, if 50% of polled democrats wont vote for hilary if shes the nominee, the Democrats have no chance at winning the presidency. The republican candidate WILL win if Hilary is nominated. ‘Nough said. She can’t win the election as it stands right now, she is far too polarizing.
sorry 50% of polled americans, not democrats.
it came out to 21% of democrats refuse to vote for her and 48% of Independents wouldn’t vote for her in the final election.
Dan,
Very interesting. I’m certainly one of those Independents.

…And she was going to lose by 15 points in New Hampshire and 6 points in Nevada.
It looks like the economy will tank and we will reach the 5000 American dead mark in Iraq this year. The Republicans have created the greatest debt this planet has ever known – just in time for the ‘Boomers to start collecting Social Security.
12 years of a Republican House and Senate, combined with the 8 years of Republican House, Senate and Presidency has almost destroyed this Nation. Voting for the Democratic candidate isn’t a political decision, it’s a survival tactic.
Laura, not if that democrat is hilary clinton. People are going to outright refuse to vote for her, unless, perhaps, that other candidate is Mike Huckabee.
If shes the Democratic candidate, I’ll tell you I’ll be writing in unless the Republican candidate is McCain.
I massively prefer Obama, but I am so desperate to not have another Republican in office that I will vote for whoever the Dem candidate is so that I don’t take votes away from the party.
At least Obama doesn’t start snivelling when the going is getting a little rough.
If shes the Democratic candidate, I’ll tell you I’ll be writing in unless the Republican candidate is McCain.

Dan, I love ‘ya-
Please remember McCain’s lovely rendition of “Bomb Iran,” his intention to invade, and the fact that he has already suggested that we would need a draft to fight a war in that revolting catbox.
I’m 45. I won’t get drafted.
People like you and your peers will.
I have a 15-year-old nephew. I can’t vote for McCain.
I hope the GOP nominates McCain. He’s the most easily beatable of the GOP frontrunners.
When he speaks, he comes off as a nasty old man. I wouldn’t be surprised if he started drooling.
I’m listening to Barak Obama speak and I can’t help thinking, the GOP campaign machine will make hash of this guy.
SOMG,
Maybe Obama should try snivelling. It sure seems to have helped Hillary.

Did you see George Bush cry TWICE while touring Israel?
How about Terrell Owens sniveling after the Cowboys’ playoff loss?
Now THERE are a couple of pus***s!
FF,
Hillary’s whining was me, me, me. I’m tired, I want this, I want that.
I’ve seen great women leaders in my lifetime, Golda Meir of Israel, Indira Gandhi of India, Margaret Thatcher of England, and the late Benazir Bhutto of Pakistan, who survived one assassination attempt and endured house arrest. I never recall any of these women snivelling about how tired they are and what they want. Or for that matter, having their husbands speak out on their behalf.
Even Kate Michelman, former president of NARAL has expressed her disdain of Hillary falling back on her gender and has supported Edwards.
12 years of a Republican House and Senate, combined with the 8 years of Republican House, Senate and Presidency has almost destroyed this Nation. Voting for the Democratic candidate isn’t a political decision, it’s a survival tactic.

Seriously, Laura, go into theatre..you’re GREAT with the dramatics.
Can’t deny Elizabeth it has been pretty unbearable.

We have an independent pharmeceutical rep. who’s a great favorite where I work. She attends the University of California Riverside with a couple of our assistants.
She’s 22-23, is an Iraq War veteran – her husband is over there – and she has a tiny child.
Before Christmas she mentioned that she was going to have to choose between tuition and daycare, and that she could hardly afford the gas it took to cover her travel for work. Because she is no longer military and works for herself, she can’t afford health insurance.
People who don’t participate have no clue what real life is like…
It is unfortunate people have to work to pay for daycare. I’m pretty lucky and I know it and am MORE than thankful for it. Bet that just burns you to no end Laura.

What part has been unbearable for you personally, PIP?

It burns me when a spoiled child “yawns” at the harships of people who actually participate in real life.

You don’t care about people who actually participate in hardships,Laura.
You think that pro-lifers should stop donating goods and services to pregnant women and mothers who can’t afford better, as you sarcastically implied in the last topic.
You apparently think that everyone who has a hard time should have no help at all, so that they can feel the full respect of a “hard life”.
I “yawn” at your dramatics, Laura..not people’s hardships. Do you know me? Do you know what hardships I’ve had to go through in my life to get to this point? NO..but yet you spend your time on the internet making snide comments to someone half your age..maybe you should try participating in real life sometime.
I would like someone to show this video at a Mitt Romney campaign rally. And then see how many people slowly back out of the room (and how many just flat run out).
