The Gaffe Twins strike again
Geez, I thought McCain was off to a bad start this week.
Then along came the Gaffe Twins again.
Joe Biden’s trashing his campaign’s moronic e-mail attack ad: “Terrible.”
Barack Obama’s trashing Joe Biden’s initial refusal to back the AIG bailout: He “should have waited.”
Joe Biden’s changing the campaign’s position on clean coal: He’s against it. Obama’s for it. (Vid is here.)
And via reader Richard J:
Michelle & Co. -
Looks like Joe Biden, in his interview with Katie Couric, was copying off the wrong classmate’s exam again. He said (video here):
“When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the princes of greed. He said, ‘look, here’s what happened.’”
My recollection is that the stock market crash was in 1929. Two problems here: Television did not even exist in 1929, and FDR was elected in 1932, so he wasn’t even the leader at the time of the crash. When Joe was in history class, was he cheating by looking over the class dunce’s shoulder, or does he just make this stuff up? Of course, TV celebrity Katie Couric also didn’t note that Biden’s statement was doubly incorrect. Her goal was a softball puff piece.”

You have not liked some of my posts in the past, but with this one sentence I see we have common ground. Except that I wouldn’t wish them to die, just suffer and not be allowed platforms for their hate.
Do you think Reverend Jeremiah Wright is a racist?
A racist wouldn’t have white friends and white members of their church. People like Hal Turner, David Duke, and William Pierce(thankfully dead) are obviously different. These three men want total separation from the black race, and think blacks are inferior. Turner and Pierce hate black people. I’m more than willing to hate em back, and would love for them to suffer.
Reverent Wright is a jackass with very anti-American views. He is also a bitter and nasty human being. If you want me to name a black racist, I’ll start with Malik Shabazz. No, I wouldn’t mind watching him suffer and die, for that and numerous reasons. Now, I have to go and take care of some things, so I’m outta here Rooster.
This has been a threadjack, so hopefully folks will let the issue go of who I wouldn’t mind watching die. What does it matter to anyone? Seriously, I can’t imagine why this issue is so important to so many people.
Actually FDR was on You-Tube
Another part of the Biden quote..
Reverent..
)~
Which of these guys is the hand-puppet and which is pulling the strings?
I had always heard that O’Biden was the dumbest man in the Senate, but even that moniker does not do him justice.
This guy is a disgrace to Delaware, or is it Scranton, or whereever he says he’s from this week.
Ahhhhhhh Goldtooth. We meet again!
Chillax girlfriend. You gonna bust a grape. Knowwhatimsayin’?
THIS IS FOR YOU MISTRESSJUSTICE:
I stand by my comment. If Uhbama chooses the Hildebeast he wins. Now he is gonna lose.
Don’t get all high and mighty on me. Don’t visit this blog if you can’t handle it crybaby.
And BTW, the only thing that is juvenile is your racist, marxist, narcissistic Candidate and the way he conducts himself.
LOL. I can handle it, kid. It’s not very entertaining for the issue oriented members of this site though.
I guess we’ll disagree on the Hillary Clinton as veep issue.
Wow, I ended up back on topic afterall.
Sorta.
Okay, this is not on topic, but I MUST share these things with you all!
Being a younger person, I of course have a facebook account. A “friend” of mine posted this yesterday or today (blood pressure warning):
“I received the following in an email from a family friend. I think it’s BRILLIANT!
Since Sarah Palin gave her speech accepting the Republican nomination for the vice presidency, Barack Obama’s campaign has raised over $10 million dollars. Some of you may already be supporting the Obama campaign financially; others of you may still be a little honked off over the primaries. None of you, however, can be happy with Palin’s selection, especially on her positions on women’s issues.
So, if you feel you can’t support the Obama campaign financially, may I suggest the following fiendishly brilliant alternative?
Make a donation to Planned Parenthood. In Sarah Palin’s name.
And here’s the good part: when you make a donation to PP in her name, they’ll send her a card telling her that the donation has been made in her honor.
Here’s the secure link to donate at Planned Parenthood’s website:
https://secure.ga0.org/02/pp10000_inhonor
You’ll need to fill in the address to let PP know where to send the ‘in Sarah Palin’s honor’ card.
I suggest you use the address for the McCain campaign headquarters:
McCain for President
1235 S. Clark Street
1st Floor
Arlington , VA 22202″
SICK OR WHAT????
This same person posted a note about a MSNBC broadcast with Rachel Maddow claiming that rape victims in Wasilla had to pay for their own rape kits. This person then called Palin “pro-rape.”
These people make me feel battered. Sigh.
… and if Sarah Palin had said these things???
Sorry! One more! This was also on facebook, listed as an even for September 22nd:
“obamamob@gmail.com
DescriptionWe will begin gathering at Westlake center to be ready for a 5:45 go time. At that time we will all raise a blue fist in the air – be that a piece of fabric, a fist covered in finger paint etc – doesn’t matter so long as it’s blue. We will hold our blue fists in the air for 15 seconds at the end of which a whistle will be blown. At that signal we’ll say “Obama” as a group and then quietly disperse.”
Hilariously ridiculous.
As an Obama supporter I agree. Either go knock on some doors or make some calls or just chill in your room, smoke some pot, go vote on Nov. 4 and try not to embarrass the rest of us between now and then.
I went to a thread and a hockey game broke out.
It’s Killin em and
I Love it!!!
McCain/Palin 08′
Credit. That was funny.
Biden the magic candidate
I’m amazed at Biden’s ability to effectively conceal his vast knowledge and experience that added so much to the democrat ticket. His ability to make his throngs of supporters invisible at rallies is also impressive.
Lance Burton could take a lesson or two from him.
Cheney / Palin 08 – The real mavericks
Just one point MJ, anyone who wishes or entertains thoughts of watching anyone die is a sick pooch. No matter how heinous a person may be, their death is not a thing to be taken lightly. Don’t get me wrong because I believe that there are people who just need killing. Not the aborted babies that your type would flush down the toilet but the scum that prey off the law abiding citizens of this great country. You know the child molesters, rapists, murderers, etc.
You libs talk a good game when it comes to be “tolerent” but you are the most pathetic examples when it comes to walking the talk. Cheryl may not ignore you often enough but when it comes to outright nastiness you take first place. But that’s typical of the lefties who don’t like to argue the meat of the subject. Call names and bully people then claim the high moral ground. Just sayin’
Did I hurt your little feelings?
Lurking, but still want to be here.
I started off on the subject before a couple conservatives started the name calling. The lack of honesty from you is bemusing, to say the least.
Well that’s your opinion, and you’re entitled to it. There are people I’d watch die, so feel free to call me a sick pooch. I’d drink a beer while watching the likes of bit-boy or David Duke eaten alive by rats. Anyone who knows me, knows I’m dead serious.
Don’t flatter yourself fella. ROFLMAO.
I’m going on vacation, and I’ll be PC free. I’ll be back to argue after the first debate. Hopefully, many have MOVED ON by then. If you don’t dig me, ignore me. If you wanna debate, or harmlessly bust chops, I’ll play along. If you wanna get in the gutter, I’ll join in on occasion.
You know, I am beginning to think that Pluggie really does harbor a deep seeded anger against The Tarnished Bovine after losing to him in the primmaries, and still thinks he is the least able candidate for President. I mean, the stuff he is saying and doing actually is beginning to look as if he is attempting to bring him down from the inside in a grudge-like fashion.
Seriously…do these two even talk to each other?
Ummmmm…who are you and why should we care?
Let’s see…first it states that it would stnd by and watch as any one of us choked to death, not raising a finger to help in a statement showing just how caring, tolerant and SICK it really is, then attempts to placate things and spends a good deal of time in her normal sanctimonious, self-righteous tone that she really isn’t the low-life scumwad who would watch someone die right in front of her out of some sick political feelings and grudge it might have, then it makes this statement that shows that it is truly sick and in desperate need of help. It is the living embodiment of all that Liberalism is.
It hypocritically stays on this site, accusing each and every one of us of being racist and evil.
It should be proud, for it truly is a Liberal in every sense of the word. It needs help, and it should be ignored until it gets the mental help it truly, desperately needs before it actually does hurt someone.
It is a typical condescending, self-righteous, sanctimonious bigotted hypocritical Liberal who honestly believes that it is better than everyone here, including our gracious host. It believes that it is smarter and has more world experience than anyone else, and it repeatedly attempts to demonstrate just how much better it is.
It has stated that she would truly enjoy watching any of of us die and that it would not help a person who was choking to death right in front of it.
It is very ill in it’s head and is in desperate need of help. I suggest that it has some sick need that it must have filled that includes being shown that it truly isn’t as intelligent as it feels. Daddy issues? Who knows, but it should be ignored and maybe it will finally get the help that it needs.
