Slate put up a list of John McCain’s pending "Hail Mary Stunts". Yes, some of them are quite possible, if staid by his new standards, after all what can really top his Vice Presidential Nominee, a spokesmodel who is not even allowed to speak? Well, at least I thought that until he decided yesterday that "Mister, we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again."
Here are a few guaranteed stunts that I foresee over the next few weeks.
1. Daniel Plainview as as Secretary of Energy in waiting. He’ll drill baby drill, and if you don’t like it, well if you can’t stand the heat stay out of the bowling alley.
2. Declare Werther’s Originals the National Candy.
3. Skip another debate, instead jump the shark-filled waters of the Snake River Canyon.
Take this post as your opportunity to add other desperate gimmicks likely to come to pass.

4. Announce he and Cindy are excitedly anticipating the birth of a child in late spring.
Mixed race of course.
Citizen Raven:
ROFLMAO!!
P.S. Raven:
Didja read my answer to yer question about the Labor Day March awhile ago? I was so energized that I been actually optimistic…I saw the enemy and they ain’t ANYthin’ like us!! Those poor soulds in the convention center for the fascit shindig we’re scared ta fuckin
death…of US!! Can ya figure that one out…LOL.
What do you think all these campaign “surrogates” are for?
“…were scared ta…”
Yea I did. Fuckers are really in a tizzy now with their fairy princess turning out to be even dumber than they are.
It’s looking to me like mcsame comes out of this financial fiasco smelling like a rose. If there’s any truth to reports that most voters are calling their pols’ offices outraged at the bailout, they’re gonna *love* the story that it was mccain’s presence that threw a spanner in the works. Dems come across as siding with shrub giving further excuses not to vote for anything with a “D”‘ behind its name.
Do y’all think that “take” is approximately correct?
Disclaimer: I’m happy to see paulson’s plan (the little of it I understand) scuttled.
gasp :-)
You knew the weasel had a plan to take advantage of this and any other crisis that comes along. “Spanner in the works”. Dire Straits, “Industrial Disease”.
Morning one and all,
Well it is debate day or is it. It is bail out wall street or is it. And holy shit Oregon upset #1 USC which would make my #2 Sooners #1. They get noosebleeds up there. Tomorrow they play TCU and then the Longhorns a week later
GO DAWGS!
Entirely appropriate to the day. What genre?
And speaking of music, presented myself with a Nano ipod Monday and have been loading CDs over the week….pretty neat gadget. It’s gonna take some heavy duty protest folk music to get me thru the next month.
Industrial Disease If you use a mac I can tell you how to download you tubes and convert them for yer pod!
Genre, we don need no stinkin genre!
he could fake a heart attack to get out of debating Obama
yeah, that’s the ticket
everybody feels sorry for ya when you’re sick …
cue the defibrillator …
BOOMER SOONERS
relax
they don’t fold till December …
Hey, I’m a Sooner fan, cut me some slack for bein honest …
(ducking and running)
MS. Mc Moose told Couric that she got her perspective on the world from “education, you know, books and mediums like that”! Isn’t a witch a medium?
Or Cindy could fake a heart attack he could have to be at her side and she could get another years worth of prescriptions
if you do get genre, penicillin will cure that
Wish I could disagree. Guess this guarantees McCain will show tonight.
that ship sailed many years ago in a far away land
Mac it is. :-) Dial-up in both locations so no u-tubing for me :-( but very kind of you to offer.
Heading out shortly for a drive to the eastern end of the state on a wing and a prayer in hopes of finding gas as needed. With luck will catch up with y’all for PUAC tomorrow.
princess pandora palin gets foreign policy experience from the fact that Putin flies thru Alaskan airspace on his way to washington and new york
the space shuttle flies over the state of california when it lands. I’ve never seen it, but that must make me a NASA engineer at least
maybe a phd in physics too
where do I pick up my nobel prize (I hear those are really nice)
Would be rather a hoot if O gets to do one of mcsame’s “town halls” without him. heheheh Yeah, don’t think the old man is gonna risk that.
Forgot to tell y’all that scar said palin “didn’t do well” in interview with couric. No shit, joe!
she’s got the stupid vote in the bag. . . and that’s huge huh?
Sooners don’t do bowl games – that is party season
Are two witches media?

Beware of stupid people in large groups
Wa Mu is dead..the biggest bank failure in history. I am really confused as to what the $700 Billion is supposed to be ‘buying’? If it isn’t to rescue banks,what is it for?
JP Morgan Chase is the proud new owner.
Why is the FBI seizing banks while they are still under fraud investigations?
Didn’t they used to hang witches
Hmm, what will I do Saturday night when Georgia dismantles the Tide? I’ll be amongst em fer sure!
McTool will further suspend his campaign to run off to North Korea and then on to Eye-Ran for talks with Kim Jong Il and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to avert military action scheduled for mid-October. Or,
McTool and Yukon Barbie will join the military and be at the fronts of the simultaneous actions on North Korea and Eye-Ran, with McTool taking revenge on the yellow folks and Yukon Barbie sticking it to her new friend, Ahmadinejad, because tea and cookies didn’t seeem to cut it for her at their last visit.
Well, it sort of has to actually pass before it can do anything doncha think?
dana milbank said that ted stevens threw his wife under the bus at his trial yesterday
gives a whole new meaning to the old one-liner
Take My Wife …
it probably doesn’t help your marriage much when you use that one in front of a jury …
The article on HuffPost that Attaturk links to above says that the “Republican plan” [i.e. McCain’s Rescue Gambit] features tax cuts & less regulation. [Talk about “hair of the dog that bit you”!!!!]
If the info on that ever gets out, I don’t think the turkey will fly. [Of course that doesn’t prevent McCain trying to use it in more of his deceptive ads.]
I still think they should take the $700B and start a new bank then buy the good stuff after the big boy fail
I am still of the belief that the goopers are stalling until they can show that McSame, riding in on his great white stallion, will charge to the rescue and get a deal done. This is not so much rescue wall street as it is rescue the Palin/McFailin candidacy. Let the fucking leveraged mortgage lenders go down the damn tubes I say.
Morning all.
Raven @30 it is a medium witch
Are we already Trash Talking — and it’s only Friday??
As Commander-In-Chief McCain will order the pilot of AF1 to surrender the controls. Then while engaged in telling an off-color joke, he will crash into the Washington Monument.
But Cindy [despite her millions] is a mare.
Does anybody know what is in the bill other than politicians is what I am trying to figure out.
hang em, burn em, throw em off of a cliff, tie em in a sack and throw em in a river
there’s different methods, but the outcome is the same
if they’re witches, they use their powers to save themselves
but mostly they go to a good christian death
they are entitled to due process
and that’s the process
Oh gee honey you added a new floor to the house. Were they having a sale at Sears
She really did say ‘mediums’ didn’t she.
They’re just, you know, reporters anyways.
I love the idea.
what politicians know is what I meant to say..
McCancel might look good for a moment until everyone figures out he tossed a wrench in the works not to enhance his Maverickosity but to further deregulate the financial sector. Guess Phil Gramm is still whispering sweet nothing’s in his ear.
Good Morning, Firepups!
It’s cool and rainy this morning in central Jersey, with very gusty winds.
I read the Slate piece last night, and laughed myself to sleep. Mr. NJP had already had me giggling about this yesterday morning, doing his very perfect imitation of Peter Sellers as the president in Dr. Strangelove [”now, Dmitri, if you had just told us”]. Even Ad Nags and Liz Bumiller, who regularly carry water for the Repubs, have a strong undercurrent of WTF in their news analysis piece in today’s NY Times.
No matter what happens, McCain is in a dilemma: if there is no deal for a Wall Street bailout [which is what the conservative Repubs want], and the economy tanks, he’s partly responsible [and Obama and the Dems seem more than ready to put the blame on McCain]. If there finally is a bailout, supported by McCain, and it costs lots of moola, he shares in the blame by outraged taxpayers.
I’m not sure quite how it games out if there’s a bailout plan only supported by Dems–partly because I think the Blue Dogs will get peeled off in that case, and it won’t pass either House or Senate.
This stunt has made McCain look even more ridiculous to most reporters and editors. There’s still plenty of media love for McCain, but not as much as there used to be.
Well, there’s hot coffee, hot water for the tea drinkers, and fresh bagels with plenty of cream cheese, butter, and some delicious blackberry preserves. Help yourselves.
Work for peace, every day.
Good morning, pups. It’s Bobo and Krugman this morning. Bobo has been “Thinking About McCain,” the poor dear. He says what disappoints him about the McCain campaign is it has no central argument. His proposals don’t add up to more than the sum of their parts. Mr. Krugman asks “Where Are the Grown-Ups?” He says the grown-up thing to do is to rescue the financial system. If Henry Paulson isn’t the grown-up we need, are Congressional leaders able to fill the role? Well, after what went on yesterday evening I doubt it…
http://mgpaquin.wordpress.com/
The coffee and tea are ready, and I’ve got banana pancakes and bacon this morning. For some reason the stuff happening in Washington has put me in a very 1968 mood so I’ve had the music of those times drifting out of my office to the confusion of my co-workers. Looking forward to tonight’s debate — unless McStupid tries to fly that “Country First” lead balloon and stay away. Which will manage to piss EVERYONE off… Have a great day.
Aright now I am picturing Tina Fey’s dismay at committing to play Sarah Palin again tomorrow night.
How do you parody a week like this?
Citizen Raven:
Do they still try and play foorball south a the Mason-Dixon Line…and don’t give me that shit about the SEC bein’ so tough…if those good ol’ boys tried ta play a full schedule where even the doormats will kickkya around for 4 quarters, they wouldn’t be fieldin a team by the 10th game a the schedule.
So go Dawgs…I really want ‘em in the national title game.
Waterboarding was one of the more popular methods of torture although they used to call it “dunking”.
Friend reported last night that west was bad but things improved eastward. If you’re traveling 40, there’s a major fuel farm just west of GSO. Might be a good area to gas up.
The process, IIRC, was to dunk them under water for a prolonged period.
If they drowned, they were innocent and found their reward early.
If they were not drowned, they were burned alive.
Elemental.

Declare the campaign theme song to be Abba’s “Take A Chance on Me.”
Announce that he’s dumping beer heiress Cindy and marrying Sarah Palin in a desperate attempt to galvanize his base with populism. But noting that, like Wife #1, Cindy’s cool with it.
Jumps across a conference table and punches Ben Bernanke in front of CNN cameras. This becomes the backdrop for his stump speeches, replacing Walter Reed High School.
I’m in the SW corner right now and bad they are! Still debating whether to take 74 or 26 thru SC. Ta.

Have to bury them at crossroads.
JP MOrgan Chase took all the deposits…the Wamu depositors money.
FDIC took all of the bad fooking debt…that us.
The new bank walks with the Cash and leaves the taxpayers the Trash.
A new scam is emerging they do not need the $700 Billion bail out this way they just dump the bad assests like the Reolution Trust.
Like the way they got around the rule no more naked shorts. The Banks are consolidating into big to fail mega corporations. That is putting the risk in one place.
The idiocy just keeps on keepin on.
Let’s see. Usurious interest rates, declining compensation, rampant oil and food inflation, out of control healthcare costs = a successful economy? Nope. it = a buggering of the people.
Now reverse that lot, reasonable interest rates, a living wage, oil and food price controls, National Health Care = successful economy.
It really is very simple.
To simple for the complex mind.
The new congressional plan
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdG4DQ8nSx8
Resolution Trust Fund the taxpayer bailout for the 1980 S&L scandals…it is a republican business model to skin the taxpayer citizens in the name of “Good Government”.
Gramm/McCain are stealing your money, are stealing your money in two ways:
1. Dumping the bad debt on us
2. Devaluing our dollars and increasing the cost of gas/oil.
Pelosi and Reid are so whored to the Wall Street Oligarchy that we have NO representation, they were bought before they were given the leadership. We saw that a the convention. They have the power to put legislation on the floor for votes and they intend to give away money Obama will use to get off of big oil with alternative energy. The Tax credits needed, the Carbon Tax that will cause capital to flow from the Soveriegn funds back into our banking system won’t be available that would have. O heard Bill Clinton explained it on Daily.
Traitors.
Morning, folks – a new day dawns on…more shit. I’m hoping that the MSM gives good wall to wall coverage on McCain’s screwing up the talks, Boehner’s lack of cooperation and, I hear that Boehner’s Rethugs will NOT be coming in to work today to try to get anything done. Is THIS going to be the October Surprise(tm)? That at the last min., after stonewalling this entire thing, the GOP Congress will suddenly pull this out of their butts and ’save the country”?
LMAO Attaturk! Love, love, love the photo & title to this post! What a way to start the day with. ;-)
Or for political posturing
Hi there how are things across the other side of the Piscataqua? Over here we have half a billion$ “shortfall” in revenues and a refusal to raise taxes to cover it. Our governor is trying to find the magic button but I fear that will not be found. Another day another debt.
To keep people from noticing how bad his campaign is doing, McCain will set up a hot dog stand to feed the members of Wall Street.
Not funny.
Go Beavers!
Go Gators!
“Evel McFeeble”
Bah hahahahahahaha! Still laughing! That is some funny I tell ya.
Johnny McTeleprompter is now saying it’s “possible” he will show up tonight to debate with Barack Obama.
http://www.baltimoresun.com/ne…..6184.story
He’s McFeeble alright!
Pardon my economic ignorance,but would it not be cheaper and honestly smarter to hand every American household a million dollars? People could pay off those mortgages and put money back into the economy.
I have no idea how it makes ANY sense to destroy consumers in a consumer based economy. The Smartest Guys in the Room aren’t very forward thinking.
Good Morning,
McCain is OUT OF HIS MIND!!
here’s WJ lineup

Citizen SouthernDragon:
Oh shit, not you too…Gawd I get tired of the good ol’ boys fattenin’ up on over rated patsies while the USC’s and Ohio States and the Oklahomas and Missouris hafta go out a PLAY every Saturday!
Got the following in my inbox this morning, it seemed interesting enough to pass along:
the bailout deal didn’t go through – that means he’s still desperately needed in washington and can’t possibly make it to his
debateday of reckoning. that was the whole perp-us(sic) of bush inviting him in the first place imho.This bill has nothing to do with banks. I thought it did until I found this article.

Awwww, how cute. A former AIG CEO is selling his stock to rake in a cool $1,000,000,000 right after Americans bailed the company’s ass out!
http://www.cnbc.com/id/26889541
Same shit, different day. This is what is going to happen if we bail the rest of the assholes out on Wall Street. They’ll still cash in and collapse their companies. They don’t care about America….THEY CARE ABOUT THEIR LIFESTYLES!
hmm…
let me think…
Now yer lookin’ fer trouble. *g*
Went to school for a while at Oregon State and can’t stand FSU or the ‘Canes.
Let us not forget that McShame needed special classes to get his admission test dcores up – still didn’t make it so they gave him a waiver
The big question in my mind is: What excuse is Sarah going to use to get out of the debate with Biden?
McCain will be seen later today banging rocks together and screaming at trees in the park. Cindy McCain will come to the press and say, “As you can see, Johnny isn’t in any shape to participate in the debate tonight. He would, however, make a fine president. Vote for Republican McCain!”.
I hope this happens.
She broke a fingernail?
Why thank you. I do it all for you kids…and the fame…but mostly the vanity. ;-)
It’s the funniest picture & title I’ve seen in a long time! You nailed it. The photoshopping is fabulous too. ;-)
Complexity breeds other faults, as Buffett described. Derivatives, because they are so hard to value, make it easier for traders and chief executives to inflate earnings. They exacerbate problems if a company, for unrelated reasons, suffers a credit downgrade that requires it to post collateral with counterparties – “a spiral that can lead to a corporate meltdown,” he wrote. They create a “daisy chain” of risk as the troubles of one company infect another.
The whole financial problem is the derivitives. Putting another trillion into the financial system will inflate commodities speculation like oil and will devalue the dollar.
Citizen SouthernDragon:
Ya know, the best football in the South is beginnin ta be played in places like Central Florida and Florida Altlanic where the coachin and the local talent (read speed) is scarin’ the overstuffed FSU’s, Miamis and Tennessees.
This is hysterical: Paulson as African scam artist letter writer. Have a look.
She will be needed in Alaska to prevent a war w/ Canada caused by overflights into canada by helicopters shooting wolves
Too many zeros. His stock value went from approx $20B to $1B now. Regardless, these greedy bastards are in it just for themselves and fuck everybody else. How many of us are gonna be around when karma kicks these scumbags in the ass?
An already scheduled date with a male escort?
Exactly, so let’s sit back and watch these greedy bastards ruin their companies all by themselves. Hell, they’ve done it for years with no oversight, so why the hell stop now when they could do it in front of the American people!
Assholes. Karma is sometimes very mean to CEO’s. [edited by MOD. please, no violence against real people]
I want to see FAMU start playing the big schools. Plus their half-time shows are much more fun than the big schools. Rev Wright’s characterization of the differences between them was memorable. And right on.
You don’t have to make shit up on this bimbo.
I got a bottle of Karo syrup for his car ratcheer.
Got McCain’s bailout plan right here.
Go Gators.
Mike: bought my ticket yesterday for the Sooners to get their butts handed to them by my Jayhawks. (hey, a guy can dream, can’t he?)
And here’s the wardrobe plan for Palin.
I am pretty sure he will announce that both his wife and his vice president will enter the Harley Davidson contest thingy
I might vote for him if he does this I might add
Palin was selected to make McCain look smart
So I just took a peek at other news (I was out of the loop last night with family obligations).
So it seems the alternative bailout deal of essentially tax cuts and less regulation came from McCain himself as sort of a political stunt to sabotage the deal both parties have been hammering out all week.
Is that everyone else’s understanding?
With all due respect, HA, give me a break. Those schools have made great progress but they wouldn’t hold up in the SEC meatgrinder.
I know a few witches, they are far from medium, they are between 8’s and 10’s
errr
oh, the other spelling, never mind then
I am pretty sure they had no clue she was this…errr….
dull.
that’s the kind word I think, dull
Welcome back SouthernDragon!
In a surprise move, Palin is given an exorcism to chase out the demon of crushing stupidity that has afflicted her. The ritual is performed on live tv aboard the Strayed Cock express while McCain personally pilots it through aerial acrobatics that would make the Blue Angels die of jealousy. After the demon, curiously resembling Ronald Reagan, is thrown out of the plane, Palin emerges a super-genius, with debating and public speaking skills that far outshine Obama’s. In the process, she gives birth to Arith, Alg, Geom, Calc, and Diffeq, Trig’s womb siblings who had failed to be delivered at the time of his birth. The upshot of all this demon and infant removal is that she now has shed her matronly figure and resembles the supermodel she has been photoshopped into by her previously adoring fans.
In a last minute maneuver, McCain crashes the plane into the Empire State Building, totally destroying it, but manages to land the plane safely at Ground Zero. He emerges with Cindy, who declares free Bud Light for all between now and November 4, to help all of the financially troubled families in the land.
It’s no problem: Tina Fey can always stand in for her.
That’s why all these conferences came about, to keep all the other schools from getting their asses consistently handed to them by the southern schools.
I had said yesterday that the intention was to poison pill the deal so he wouldn’t have to debate.
it’s also a lock
the lobbiests onhis staff put the “proposal” togetherwe can take advantage of that by pointing out, only a lobbiest would create less regulation to fix a problem caused by less regulation
with absolutely no snark what so ever, I am CERTAIN tina would be a more competant vp then palin
Damn, that was for Raven @ 94. Dead in the water for two weeks and I forget how to operate the buttons. Sheesh.
I don’t like this bailout either but it is needed.
This is a classic case of cutting off your nose to spite your face.
If you know any teachers or people who work in public service (police, fire, EMS, etc.) they will feel much more pain than the “Wall Street Fat Cats” will if this gets out of control.
Look, I hate that these greedy bastards have us in a corner, too.
But this is not the place to draw the line in the sand.
We do not need to wake up everyday to yet another bank failure, and footage of people in line to get their money.
Thanks. It’s great to be back. F*kin’ computers.
Can’t count either. Should have been 104.
Thanks for being here, Atta et al.
My question to anyone: Where is Paul O’Neil, the former Sec of Treas, let go because he wouldn’t play Bush games? Why isn’t he being interviewed or consulted?
I think this ’sky is falling’ scenario is going to work yet again for Bush and McCain at our expense. Doing nothing would be less damaging to our future. But why would we give the money to Paulson anyway- he and his friends made this mess? We need an independent party to manage Our money, if we HAVE to give any to these crooks. It really stinks of coersion.
JoeLie on MSNBC.
a bailout is needed, but not this bailout
the only bailout we need is getting those who risk forclosure out of risk
we need NOT help those that caused the problem stay in business
we need to get some new projects into our economy and put our people back to work, this means rebuilding our infrastructure, our labor force, unions and the alternative fuel industry LOCALLY
well, everybody kept asking after ya,
we thought maybe you were on the ledge at the National Archives the other day flying an IMPEACH WAR CRIMINALS banner
Maybe you need this…
Oh, he’ll have a solution to this mess – give the $700B to Israel.
McClatchy has an interesting article this morning on whether a bailout is really neeeded. Turns out a number of economists say we don’t really need one.
Yes. Agreed. But would she run with McFail?
He just did an interview yesterday. He said it was obvious that Bush doesn’t understand the crisis. Praised Paulson’s intelligence but doesn’t think the plan is the best. There’s more.
Off to work, where I’ll be less than efficient.
This should let everyone know how dangerous McGramps & Phil Gramm are at the controls of the economy.
Tax cuts and less regulation are exactly what got us in this mess.
Yea, the Big Ten was founded in 1896!
Oh, don’t I wish. Hadta settle for a new sign for peace vigils: Force is the Weapon of the Weak.
Got a lot of reading done, though. I’ll give Micro$oft one thing. Every two or three years ya gotta learn a new operating system. Keeps the little gray cells from gettin’ lazy.
BT’s upstairs with Letterman
arggh tell me about it
Got two on the floor that are about to get that treatment. The third still has a functioning hard drive that I’m going to have to copy for the last three years worth of files. Swear to something I’m goin’ back to Linux one of these days.
Thank you moderator for the lesson in morality, but saying the AIG sign fell on his car does not indicate Greenberg died as a result. Just saying. ;-)
She and her buddies need to stay out of our airspace..enough pollution in the air already!
Ohhhh, I’ve been waitin’ for that since all the comments last night.
That’s what mac are for. . .
It’s not a lesson it’s a well known policy here.
Yes Raven I know that. If I said he tripped over a can and smacked his head on the ground, would everyone gasp and run across the room because I said it? Well, maybe a few feable minded “over the age of 60″ might. *rolling eyes* And…taking sides and using this moment to get a personal jab in? Since you are, here’s mine:
John McCain is a not a POW hero and he is just using his time in Nam to fake everyone out as he goes through life to get what he wants. I have zero respect for him or his service to our country.
I know it hurts to hear that! LOL
And the lesson in “morality” was where?
Oh the horrors! I mentioned a stuffed moose on the wall falling on Sarah Palin’s head in the post above this one! I am such violencemonger!
Is everyone okay? You can come out. A stuffed moose did not fall on Sarah’s head and neither did the AIG sign fall onto Mr. Greenberg’s car when he pulled into the parking lot. In fact, I doubt he’ll be back to AIG headquarters ever again!
Okay, going to work.
I know it hurts to hear that! LOL
Hurts who. That tired bullshit means nothing to me. You don’t even have to say it when you talk to ME!
I admit Raven. I don’t beat around the bush when I talk. I tell it like it is and I reflect what most are feeling. I’m not a snake in the grass like some are.
have a nice daaaaayyyy
stay classy
I truly do wish you a nice day. I think I know how you feel It is difficult not to react when one feels put down, or belittled. I got a taste of that today on this website and it was a bit of a shock because people here are not nasty in general.
Don’t react to baiting, even under the guise of humor…ignore,ignore,ignore.
McIdiot will announce POW now stands for Pissed Off Whiteman, stay tuned…..
Why wasn’t Greenberg’s AIG stock confiscated as part of the “bail-out”?
I hope this gets LOTS of coverage, so the ‘Merican public can see that the greedy bastards who drove this into the ditch STILL manage to profit — and at taxpayer expense.
“That time of the month.”
