Here are some things that Republicans can get away with that Democrats can't:
-- Claim that their great hero never did something that everyone knows he did.
-- Attack a leading member of the other side for wanting to talk with other countries who aren't necessarily friendly to us even as one of your own advisors recommends doing just that.
-- Have five top campaign officials sever their official ties with your campaign without drawing any stories about how your campaign is in "disarray".
You can do all these things and rest assured that nobody will be talking badly about you or your campaign on the evening news. But only if you're a Republican.
However, if you want to ensure that the corporate GOP/Media Complex will be hounding you with stories real and fake from here to eternity, you serve them notice that the corporate free ride they've had for years -- particularly where non-enforcement of anti-trust law is concerned -- will come to an end once you've been elected president.

Aloha, PW!
McBush!
The MainStream Media is a propaganda tool of the corporate Right.
We need to really internalize and understand this. The primary communications medium in this country has been compromised, and is in the hands of parties with no interest in the nation’s welfare, only their corporate bottom line.
Until we really grasp the implications of this, we will continue to be surprised that the media is completely biased.
Ooh, Zed… This ties in beautifully with Laura’s recent Grit show…!
Exactly right PW!
cleans off monitor…spew alert!
loved the Blo&Go/garter linky
now where’s my visual cortex bleach?
DIGG!
Kirk, you can never find that stuff when you need it.
I will try not to impose my Grammatical Correctness in this thread!
Stop by for Late Late Nite, Suzanne provides it by the 55-gal. barrel!
That thing Bush’s nose does when he’s irritated really bugs the shit out of me.
that guy on the left looks really scary. Beware of overly jovial rethugs.
Is he related to Eraserhead?
Thanks PW. Great and important post!
Konichiwah, PW
This has to scare the hell out of them if they’ve thought about it. And we know they’ve thought about it.
Obama defends his wife and family and fights back…
McCain hugs those that attack his wife and family and follows them.
McCain is a follower, but that doesn’t really get reported.
Will the ”real” Maverick please stand up.
Heh, Ya decided to take the plunge, eh? *g*
With the pump sprayer - Damn.
In small town Merica most recognize the bias of Fox and are beginning to recognize the MSM intotainment they have been fed. All they lack is the knowledge of where to go for info they can trust. I send as many as I can to the Lake
Had to deal with some real life stuff first.
I hear ya, never a dull moment…! ;-)
World-class fuckery: IOKIYAR.
Bush and McBush embarking on a joint fundraising campaign swing.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!
A lot of good the money will do McBush when all the voters recognize he is George W.’s Siamese twin!
somewhat on topic …. Democrats Launch McCainpedia, An Attack Site Masquerading As A Wiki
Doing a joint anything with Der Shrubbenfuhrer Himself just goes to prove how out of touch McCan’t really is.
It’s Sen. Coleman, R-MN, the one with the Blo and Go wife.
“Last month, Marine Staff Sgt. Travis N. “T-Bo” Twiggs went to the White House with a group of Iraq war veterans called the Wounded Warriors Regiment and met the president.
Twiggs had been through four tours in Iraq, one in Afghanistan and months of therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder in which he said he was on up to 12 different medications.
“He said, `Sir, I’ve served over there many times, and I would serve for you any time,’ and he grabbed the president and gave him a big hug,” said Kellee Twiggs, his widow.”
About two weeks later, Travis Twiggs went absent without leave from his job in Quantico, Va.
He and his brother drove to the Grand Canyon, where their car was found hanging in a tree in what appeared to be a failed attempt to drive into the chasm.
The brothers carjacked a vehicle at the park Monday. Two days later they were at a southwestern Arizona border checkpoint, and took off when they were asked to pull into a secondary inspection area, Border Patrol spokesman Michael Bernacke said.
Eighty miles later, the car was on the Tohono O’odham reservation, its tires wrecked by spike strips.
As tribal police and Border Patrol agents closed in, Twiggs, 36, apparently fatally shot his 38-year-old brother, Willard J. “Will” Twiggs, then killed himself.”

If it were a book, there would be no need for page numbers since McCain never knows what page he is on.
Also include a Table of NON Content..)
Telling the truth for all to see, are we? The wingnuts aren’t going to like that. Nosirree, not one bit. I can hear the whine building to a crescendo even as we speak.
1. He’s stupid…or
2 He’s blackmailed..or
3. He’s in on something that’s a “sure shot” for the election.
That’s an awesome idea… As they note, it’s a one-stop shop for oppo research…!
Maybe he’s all three (or thinks he is, in the case of 3.).
Good evening, everyone! Sorry so late. Did all the zedders get zedded?
I hope that McCainpedia documents the fact that John McCain supports torture of human beings by the United States of America.
John McCain:
Worse than Bush
Wingnut on MSNBC just said Obama is “appeasing supporters” by wearing a flag pin.
They still like to use the A-word.
And how do you appease supporters? I thought you appeased enemies.
Saw a great bumper sticker today - just 2 words
JAIL BUSH
Oh, they’ve found a new word to abuse! Such children.
“Appeasing supporters,” is it? So that’s who was doing all that whinging about Obama’s pin-wearing habits? NOT.
*beep beep beep*
tanker truck backs up to the lake and disburses liberal amounts of brain bleach for those with blo & glo symptoms
Norm uses it for Bone Glow
FORK… make that blo & go…
ya have ta say that “Blow and Go” is a perfect product for gooper congresscritters- oughta sell em in the Minneapolis Airport
Sadly, not yet! Do you want to add your two cents? ;-)
Actually, Obama said he has been asked by a number of supporters, including veterans, to wear the pin, and he is doing it to honor them.
Not “appease” them.
And what’s wrong with that?
Please disperse. There is nothing to see here. (Stuffs a canvas bag-wearing, struggling Punaise into the trunk and drives off.)
Revolting.
Who knows…maybe it does make Norm glow in the dark
Aloha, Suz! How’s the temp today?
Obviously, it’s that Obama can only be a cynical hack doing anything he does solely to score political points. There are also unconfirmed reports that he’s black. [/snark]
Yikes!
Apparently a meeting with GW Clusterfuck is a really impactful experience eh?
Obama said as much today. Refreshing.
Is that Normese for “depleted uranium”?
Oh man, Al Franken is gonna have a field day with Senator Blo and Go.
Ya know, is it any coincidence Sen Larry “Wide Stance” Craig was busted in Minneapolis? Sen Wide Stance is friends with Sen Coleman, so perhaps that’s where his wife got the name Blo and Go? Hmmm….
Obama probably deserves a modicum of shit for wearing the flag pin now- but it’s a smart move- doesn’t cost more than a buck.
If that’s the case, he’d better not drive anywhere, especially after dark…
Just finishing up the zedoxology here, PW.
“is now and zedder shall be
zed without end
amen, amen”
“mmmmpf..hmmmrf”
For Jeff Gannon…..
It’s not Coleman’s fault. “Depleted uranium” is a lot of syllables for a little mind.
Hell- fer Gannon it’s just another day at the office.
I guess we shouldn’t make Glow in the Dark jokes, since Suzanne is here…
There’s a whole story behind it. Someone he met while campaigning asked him the wear that specific one. It’s a good story.
and everytime he heard “DU”, he was looking around for Homer.
yeah- sounds like bullshit- but he’s still doin the right thing by wearing it.. Once he puts one on- it’s like anti kryptonite.
lord help us if the SCOTUS has to rule on Purity Balls
I wish he would, but he’s too noble, alas. So it’s up to us to do it for him!
hahaha dayam, ya’ll remember everything i’ve said? fork
better Blo ‘n Go than Blew ‘n Goo….
The Opus Deites on SCOTUS know all about purity balls. They’d never touch themselves in such a filthy way.
Thanks. I needed that. (I was hoping for photos of blo and glo though) *rhyme*
I read about these a couple of years ago and it made me want to hurl. I think these daddys have a problem which means that the daughters might have one, too.
It’s nothing more than the latest innovation in the time-honored field of convincing young women that their reproductive capacities are owned by men. When looked at in its proper context, hell, the idea is downright loathsome.
I share the concern: doesn’t take Dr Freud to wonder if the guys who keep bring up sex and their daughters aren’t really hung up on…sex and their daughters.
Blergh.
A vet gave it to him and asked him to wear it.
http://blogs.reuters.com/trail.....ony-issue/
Yeah, but those kinds of puppies can ruin a perfectly good suit.
So where do we sign up to attend a Blo and Glow Ball?
There’s something truly sick about purity balls.
it’s not too late to fight Glow Ball Warming
HA!!! Too funny.
Yeah, but those kinds of puppies can ruin a perfectly good suit.
in the Thuglican context it’s all about pin pricks.
got to cut down on those car boners

Why the press gives McCain a pass for consorting with batshit holy men, but condemns Obama to talk-show hell for the same sin.
…and their nocturnal emissions
Can Coleman find his?
I see someone has cranked up their AL Gore Rhythms.
Funny line I just saw elsewhere:
“Barack Obama is not the person you even think he’s not.”
LOL!
*sigh* Why did EDP let ya out of the trunk so soon…! ;-)
Going full circle with that, I am reminded of the current TV commercial where the overprotective dad is knocking on the car window on Lover’s Lane because his daughter’s cell phone didn’t have the range to reach him with her alibi
he probably just wanted her to go to a purity ball
OT, Fabulous full moon rising tonight!
sorry PW: we can trash a thread in eighty-plus comments!
patriarchy sells….
sexual innuendo.
“John McCain is not a person who thinks, you are.”
Talk about politics and boners…check this out!
http://www.klbjfm.com/nigel/bl.....yID=100125
LOL
Rest assured, Traitor Joe Lieberman will be the to “check” on the purity balls.
http://www.crooksandliars.com/.....-bearings/
maybe punaise can do something with that…
What if he’s an FLDS dad?
The family that lays together stays together.
Because we love you.
Chastity, thy name is Joe.
“family” = one purity ball-type dad, several underage “wives” and their babies
By the way:
It’s OK for Bush to kiss an imam. But it’s not OK, according to the wingnutosphere, for Obama to meet with that imam:
http://minnesotamonitor.com/sh.....aryId=4027
purity juggling?
Well, at least he made sure none of those teenage boys got to his “girls.” The boys all got run out of town.
Yep. Jest yer basic Rethug.
Q: Why do Mormon women stop having kids at 36?
A: ‘Cause 37 is just too damn many.
Well, let’s be honest–according to the wingnutosphere, Obama can’t do anything that isn’t sinister and evil. We should be used to them projecting by now.
Great catch…or the more publicized connections with Bandar Bush and holding hands with Abdullah of Saudi Arabia (16 of 19 hijackers on 9/11 originating there)….and that on the morning of 9/11, Bush41 was meeting with Bin Laden family members who were invested heavily in Carlyle at the time…or how about this “appeasement”…allowing the Bin Laden family to leave the country with no investigation….Why? Why did they let them do that? D’Oh….

I’d much rather George would have just worn a Saudi flag pin than that
the father ‘giving away’ the bride is kind of an innocuous, dare I say touching tradition. but purity balls? just plain creepy (wrong kind of “touching”?)
The same Saudis that gave McBush’s campaign guy $15 million….
Who’s your Daddy???
Oh yeah, and who’s yer Momma…
McBush is a kept man. Truly a Gigalo of the first order…
At Jewish weddings, both sets of parents give the bride and the groom to each other.
better yet!

“Saudi Prince Albert” just doesn’t sound quite right…
I like that better.
Hello, do you have Prince Bandar in a can?
