FAIL. . . you socialists get off to the stupidest things.
No
I guess you prefer a dictatorship for America
Oh yes, it’s either one or the other. No middle ground allowed.
Didn’t you get the memo?
Yeah listen… about those cover sheets on the voter registration forms….
yeeeeah, did you get the memo?
I am reminded of how I would talk when I played the Undead in Warcraft 3.
“Yeah listen… I need a Crypt built over there and, ya know… How about you ransack the humans with some ghouls. That would be super.”
Lynn hated it. XD
Congrats you killed the conversation!! WINNER OF THE WEEK!
It’s called the Law of the Excluded Middle
Dictatorship is not a requisite of socialism. That is something that is not well understood by most riolozhikaik qom’i.
yer just bitter cause they done blowed up vulvan and that stealing actress chick
anybody anti-palin/mccain is a socialist then? that’s a pretty screwed up world-view you have there. suppose you get off on opposing gay marriage? or on the belief that a fictional invisible man in the sky will save you for adhering to nonsensical beliefs? or sending young men and women to die for your nonsensicl beliefs? yeah, you and those damn muslims are so, so different
amen
Who are they?
I don’t know who that chick is, but she better not be eyeing my man.
Grrrrrr… Now I am being impersonated…
They are Joe Biden and Sarah Palin, the two Vice Presidential candidates for the U.S. elections. Palin has been criticized for pronouncing “nuclear” as “noo-kyuu-ler” instead of “noo-klee-er.” Joe Biden is also characterized as being somewhat arrogant, which pretty much puts this lol into context.
Oh. My. Gawd. Really? *gasp*
So the man I’ve been crushing on all these weeks is actually a US Senator and a VP candidate? Go figger. I had no idea.
Wait, this is an election year? If only they had sent me a mailer, or talked about it on the news!
Keep down out there. I am trying to sleep in my time capsule, dammit!!!
Im on your time capsule’s yard, ruining your lawn.
I knew you were up to something…
Awww sweetie don’t sweat it. It means people think you’re emal… imun… emulate-able! They liiiiiiiike you!
Or, they want to get involved in a saucy comment exchange with ME
[self-involvement WIN!]
That second one sounds most likely.
Aww! You are draining my daily supplies of ‘aww’, young man!
Did you see the comment below about Bidey opening his mouth and only FAIL coming out? I think I’ve grown as a person because I can stop myself from commenting with something inappropriate
I’m proud of you girl. *pets*
*fidgets*
Can you do it for me?
*smirks* As you wish, m’lady.
It is posted but PK ate it. It should be there later.
Eeeeh! I love you! *tackle-hugs*
Also, going home early to prepare for my date
See you on the flip side!
…in bed…
Have fun, love. *hugs* Good luck.
*smiles big* I am baaaaaaaack…
I will assume that fun ensued.
in bed?
That too.
its Sarah Palin, moron.
Thank you. I had no idea.
Moron.
sarcasm, what’s that?
Argh ! Tis lame it be !!
But the wench is rather fetching ! But I’d keelhaul the old buzzard, for certain !
I wonder how bad 4chan is going to DDOS this place for using this template.
Are you kidding? It would more likely draw more attention to them, resulting in an influx of noobs who forget to post anon. That makes the regulars happy, resulting in fun reading for the rest of us.
It’s a win-win situation!
lol, fair enough
Biden can’t open his mouth with out having a FAIL, but he never realizes he’s messed up. So he looks good doing it.
Oy, buffoon!! Yes, you with the failed attempt at humor and realistic sobriety. He looks Damn good doing it and your wonder girl hasn’t managed to talk the entire time she has been riding the bus. I have been wondering if they are going to make the bus shorter to properly accomodate her mentality.
If Biden is Fail, Palin is tragicly epic fail. In a bowl of shit, three days old, covered in the fluids your mother forgot to throw away after you were born.
In bed….
…with a rabid diseased tailless monkey
Epic fail? Why because she got caught up on gotcha question? Because She realized that she wasn’t doing well in the interview and Froze up. Biden has his head shoved so far up his @$$ that he doesn’t realized that he’s sad F.D.R. when on “TV” in 1929!
A gotcha question? She acts like that with EVERY question.
So she’s stupid for having a bad interview with a hostel interviewer…
And I can’t figure out why your so hot for grampa Biden.
The interviewer is a sleepover in Germany?
So the tough girl can’t handle hostile questions and I am not hot for Biden. That would be Guinny. Least he wasn’t afraid to actually do the debate. Palin just wanted to make it up as she went.
Thank you, dear
‘Twas awesome!
A pleasure, m’lady. *hugs*
“Least he wasn’t afraid to actually do the debate. Palin just wanted to make it up as she went.”
Are you on crack? ..or is it cool aid?
I do believe she said she wasn’t going to answer the question. So how many questions did she actually answer again?
She’s just showing what a real maverick is like. *wink*
Because she’s Mavericky! (thanks SNL! hehe)
Yes, annoying rebels who end up going their own path for their own gain and not the gain of others. Yep, I definitely want THAT in office.
Because Bidey is a silver fox! Rawr!
Also, ONE bad interview?
With a HOSTILE interviewer? 
In what frigging world is KATIE COURIC hostile?
the world of chipmunks…..
In bed…
She’s just hostile because her ratings are so low that you need a microscope to see them. And to be fair, James accused her of being a hostel, but she doesn’t look like a hotel to me
Although, if you look up the definition of hostel..
“An inexpensive accommodation, usually dormitory style, popular with students.”
Ok, that’s a little cruel
That’s what she said !
Anybody else a bit hornier now?
I’m not sure you are an unbiased person we can ask that question of…
You sir, are a genius and I am humbled by your wit.
No, she’s way too tiny to be a hotel. Maybe a B&B?
I’m thinking more like a convenience store..
Katie Couric can go hostile on me AAALLLLL niiiight loooong!
No he said “Oy buffoon” not “ill baboon”.
Monkey Pox for ALL!!!
I was referring to her closing not her beginning.
Her?!
her,him,it…
I love you too, Sally.
MONKEY POX WIN!!1!
“What newspapers or magazines do you read?”
This is a “gotcha” question? Please! Have some perspective you partisan hack; eight years of a president who doesn’t read hasn’t taught you that we *need* more politicians who get their knowledge from somewhere other than their gut?
hey! he read camus! the stranger!
ok…ok… he probably didn’t get it, in fact he probably though it was a comedy about killing muslims…
Going with your gut… The part of the body that is truly full of shit. Sounds like a plan.
A gotcha question? Like, “what newspapers do you read?” – and it took 3 days to answer it? And she still got it wrong – noone reads The Economist!
And there’s a chance she’ll be given the football with the newkoolar codes?
She’s not riding the bus. Her party pushed her and McCain in front of it.
I’m still not sure that’s happened. It’s really weird that such a hated candidate is still within the margin of error. A statistical tie. Obama should be far ahead at this point.
What is the margin of error here? 5%, 10%? These are pretty big margins of error.
3% in the polls I’ve seen, including the latest AP poll. It’s a HUGE margin of error statistically speaking, and means that the two are basically tied.
Check fivethirtyeight dot com: I think you’ll see Obama is well outside the margin of error in most states, including several states that went to Bush in 2004.
And last election the media kept claiming Kerry was far ahead in the polls too- until he lost. It’s over when it’s over !
He wasn’t far ahead this close to the election. Bush was already closing in.
Closing in, but still behind. I don’t even hear the Fat Lady tuning up yet.
Yeah.. I talked to “The Fat Lady” and she’s not happy. First off,
she prefers to be called “The Larger Than Average Lady”. And
she’s also mad that her job has been taken by an old white-haired
guy, the moment he announced Palin on his ticket.
Waaaah, Obama sucks because he should be winning MOAR, waaaah.
I didn’t say that. I merely said that I thought it was weird that a candidate who is supposed to be so well loved should be a little further ahead than just the margin of error. It’s not in the bag for either candidate.
I agree with you, froofrou. I’m still new to the Obama supporting thing (having been an independent until a couple of weeks ago) but I do think it’s strange that his lead isn’t bigger. I have my thoughts about that, too, but I shall refrain from sharing lest I piss off half this site’s viewers
I piss off half the boards on a regular basis. It’s fun! Join me!!
MUAH!
<3 teh froofrou
Now I have a Lion King song stuck in my head. CAAAAAAAAAAAAAn you FEEEEEEEEEEEEL…..the LOOOOOOOOOOOVE toNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT………
Smoochies!
*Wears a meerkat Outfit with DWN in a warthog suit as they stare
at America and McCain/Palin”
I can see whats happening…
DWN: What?
And they dont have a clue…
DWN: Who?
They’ll fall in love and here’s the bottom line…. our nation’s
really screwed.
DWN: Oh…
The sweet caress of false promises, their’s animosity in the air…
And with all this fearmongering atmosphere… DISASTER’S IN
THE AAAAAAAAAAIR!!!
Oh well poop… there’s…. not Their’s.
O_O… This suit itches.
*stands next to froofrou*
*is also there. Shares candy*
*waves from across the street*
It would appear that we’re on a one way street, so do we share the same ideals?
This is where the phrase Great Minds think Alike comes into play. Despite how we may differ on points, we all want the same thing:
Government with limited ability to be stupid. Term limits for congress, etc.
McCain has a lot of idiots on his side scared there by fear and lies. America is filled with idiots.
I take exception to that statement. I am neither scared by lies or an idiot. You, sir, are a bigot for thinking that. I simply disagree with your side. And pretty much everything Obama stands for.
Like more education, universal health care for children, and wiping out Al Quaeda in their bases in Pakistan/Afghanistan…
(btw, he’s gonna fail on point three. Just wanted to be the first liberal to admit it.)
He wants the government to pay for all of this. In Hawaii, the ‘universal health care’ just got revoked because people who were originally paying for the healthcare just simply stopped paying in order to get theirs free from the Hawaiian government, and it became too expensive for the gov’t to pay for. Do you honestly think anything different will happen if the federal gov’t tries the same thing? Same thing happened in the housing crisis. People who could afford their morgages just stopped paying because they knew they would be bailed out. When the gov’t does it all for you then there is no need to do ANYTHING for yourself. Then there is nobody to tax to pay for it, and the system collapses, taking the truly needy with it.
As far as more education, no one in their right mind is against it.
So you’re saying that Hawaiians and potentially people in mainland US are slackers and scammers? Because universal healthcare works in other countries just fine.
You’re putting words in my mouth. But to be honest, we do have a lot, a LOT of users in America. Aside from Singapore, can you give me an example of a free people who are being given everything by a government where it actually works the way its supposed to?
I have no problem with Socialism in its purest form. It’s an awesome idea. But because of the few who will abuse it, it ruins it for everyone else.
Being given everything? No, I can’t name one.
But many countries in Europe, as well as Canada, Australia, New Zealand; we do have more accessible healthcare. And while none of them are perfect, there are at least a few that are a damn sight better than the US.
I can agree with you. But you have to be REALLY careful when you start asking the government to provide everything, not just healthcare. In America we want gov’t supplied healthcare, retirement, education, guaranteed jobs, defense, welfare…….and pretty much everything else you can name. Ok, great. Now who’s going to pay for it? The rich few at the top are rich in part because they are smart enough to hide their money and not have to give it up. So if the redistribution of wealth ever takes off, guess what? More of that money will be hidden so the people who earned it don’t have to pay it to someone who wants the government to pay for it all. Then the entire thing collapses, and Joe Six Pack, who really IS legitimately hurt and can’t work, and Jane Doe who can’t provide for her four kids on an hourly wage, suddenly can’t get ANY help from the government because there is no one to pay for it.
), just remember that I am aware this is an extreme example. But in every extreme example there is enough truth to make it scary.
And before you jump on me and flame me (said to the random troll who doesn’t know me well enough to make an intelligent argument with me, not you, PiMan
Out of curiosity, what will Obama’s tax rate be, and will he be paying the full amount, or will he be hiding his money like every other smart rich person out there? Who will be getting his extra money?
… So basically you’re saying that the “wealthy paying more in taxes” scenario will inevitably fail because rich people are corrupt?
Damn, you’d make a good carpenter. That’s also the reason why genuine communism/marxism/socialism/anarchism fails: people are lazy, petty, and greedy. The unfortunate part is, our society isn’t doing much to help that.
I was debating a friend about the pros and cons of a more balanced system. (I dislike the term “redistribution of wealth” as is makes it seem like the very rich actually earned the money themselves, without the help of hundreds of people lower on the food chain.) We decided that if the government is to offer more social programs (which it should, as we are a gigantic community after all) than people should not only pay for it through taxes (from each acording to his ability, to each according to his need), but that we should also reinvest in our country’s well-being: something akin to a mandatory three-year stint in either the armed services or some form of civil service like AmeriCorps.
$.02
It’s not corrupt to want to keep most of what you earn, no matter how much money you make. Business owners and investors take great risks and have great responsibilities. (If they fail, the government should NOT bail them out!!) They create jobs and income, not to mention goods and services. If we take away the incentives they won’t do that anymore. More than likely if we keep raising taxes on the wealthy they will leave and invest in businesses in countries with lower taxes. People may be lazy, petty and greedy to a certain extent, but how is government going to change human nature?
You’re still under the assumption that most of those rich actually earned it. Just saying.
Also have to remember right now that most people even busting their asses can’t afford to retire or have healthcare. They aren’t lazy. They’re just screwed…
More than likely if we keep raising taxes on the wealthy they will leave and invest in businesses in countries with lower taxes.
How is this not blackmail? “If you don’t give me extra-special treatment, I’m going to leave.” Christ, most of these businesses already ship most of their labor work overseas, and funnel half their earnings through off-shore accounts. Let ‘em move to another country. It’d be more impetus to reinstitute tariffs.
Then were will the jobs come from? Who will we tax? Tariffs on what? None of us here will be able to afford to buy anything. I’m just saying we need to NOT over do it with taxes or they will leave or cease doing business, and it’s not blackmail its just healthy competition. If other countries are charging less for taxes it’s just common sense.
“Also have to remember right now that most people even busting their asses can’t afford to retire or have healthcare. They aren’t lazy. They’re just screwed…” — If we had a healthy vibrant economy with lots of wealthy people investing and creating jobs we would all be in better shape.
Sorry herb, but the phrase “from each acording to his ability, to each according to his need” is attributed to Marxism and frankly, I’d rather not have any part of that system.
I know where the phrase comes comes from, eddie. I used it as it demonstrates a level of equality and responsibility that is clearly un-American.People contributing back to the community? Bwah! Seeing that all members of the community are provided the barest necessities? A travesty!
I know I’ve a great deal of idealism, but the idea that if we completely deregulate Big Business, they’ll return in kind with glorious benefits those who helped and continue to help them remain big is not one of them.
Please understand: I’m an idealist because I believe that people have the potential to be great and do great things; I am a cynic because I know if given the chance they won’t.
Ok, I think we’re on the same side of the street (or at least standing in the middle dodging traffic.) I probably came across a little pompous when I didn’t mean to. Otherwise, I agree with your idealism, it’s just that that particular quote takes me back in time, if you know what I mean.
Yeah man… those damn reality freightliners really murder idealism
Im getting tired of having tire tracks across my back.
Oh please, you keep on parroting about how Obama pals around with terrorists. Sounds like someone who was spoon feed a lie. You, “madam”, are an idiot.
I can say that with the same breath that I can say McCain is a dumbass because of his views on amnesty. Doesn’t make either statement less true because one side believes it and the other doesn’t. You have a bad habit of forming an opinion based on a few of my posts. I have no problem admitting I am wrong when you can give me actual evidence, but the evidence for Obama not ‘palling around with terrorists’ is shaky in my book. Besides, ‘parroting’ is not the correct term for mentioning it in a few posts. I’ve given my disagreements with McCain as well.
My opinions don’t make me an idiot any more than your overdeveloped sense of self righteousness make you an intelligent person. Get off your high horse and actually debate with me instead of throwing out names.
The Obama-Ayers terrorist connection is flimsy at best.
Mutatis mutandis: McCain pals around with the Pro-Life crowd, and they’ve killed more people and bombed more buildings than the Weathermen ever did.
I don’t agree with his people doing that either. If it seems I’m a little one-sided it’s simply because there aren’t a lot of intelligent people on these boards from my side (with a few notable exceptions) who can form a decent argument without sounding like EP or some radical dummy who can’t spell. And anyone who calls me a name before trying to debate my ideas is in the same boat with EP as far as I’m concerned, no matter what side he/she is on.
Ok hottie, your attractive, sexually stunning, goddess! Im only
gonna say this ONCE:……. How YOU doin?
crap…. “you attractive”
Extra/misplaced letters are mine enemy this night.
Actually, only the Major media outlets (NBC, CBS, FOX, MSNBC…) have the race anywhere close.
If you look at any 3rd party, or small-market media group, the projections have Obama at anywhere from 300 to 360 Electoral votes, with an 80+ % chance of winning, and national polling averages somewhere in the realm of:
Obama 54%
McCain 43%
Undecided ~4%
Try this site:
fivethirtyeight.com
Its put together by a non-partisan group of statisticians (headed by a baseball statistician) that compilied their data from a number of national and local polls, and put it all together into one composite.
Anyone who claims that Obama should be up by a huge number, like 10+ points doesn’t understand American politics. The fact of the matter is that the VAST MAJORITY of people decide who they’re going to vote for before the candidates are even chosen. Most people vote along party lines with little exception—that’s just the way it is. As such, each candidate is pretty much guaranteed at least 40% of the vote right off the bat.
I just think it’s funny that we’ve reached a point where *anyone* would say “Why isn’t the black man winning more heavily in the race for the White House?” Wasn’t more than, oh, six months ago that many believed we’d *never* have a black president.
I would love a black president. Just not this one. Same with a woman. Just not Hillary.
Stick with those safe white men.
you’re putting words in my mouth.
True enough. At least he’s not trying to put other things in your mouth.
I’ll leave that for DWM to try and my husband to succeed
I need an adult! I need an adult!
Awwww, well least I get to try. *unzip*
>_>
<_<
*chases and falls down* OW DAMN!!! Rose bush!!! Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow…. Holy bleeding fornication, that stings. *passes out and bleeds to death*
i feel the same way about palin as VP
Yep, Palin’s ‘tarded.
Joe Biden: “I have three letters for you. J-O-B-S.”
Biden’s ‘tarded.
Not what he said. At least he knows what the Bush Doctrine is.
And he was able to laugh at himself at the mistake. Unlike Sarah Palin, who doesn’t make any mistakes, she just gets asked trick questions.
Palin is a bad trick
She probably just lays there and describes Russia.
Now to state the obvious.
In bed…
oooo you are just OH SO FUNNY!!!!!! (sarcastic comment)
He really is… (not a sarcastic comment)
I try but you have me beat, good sir.
I like that about Biden ^-^ he can laugh at himself. He thought the Saturday Night Live impersonation of him was hilarious.
I did too, “John McCain is completely deranged… and a dear dear friend”
“I’d take a *bullet* for that man… but he’s absolutely nuts.”
I still enjoyed the debate sketch with McCain/Obama… Pie eating contest.
“I really dont see the relevance of any of this… maybe the blueberry.”
McCain thought Spain was in Latin America and that there was an Iraq/Pakistan border.
Obama thought there were 57 states and that he voted against the war when he wasn’t even in congress at the time. Your point?
He didn’t say he voted against it, he did say that he was against it, common mistake, i would have liked to vote against it,but i was just against it.
What about the financial crisis with Fannie and Freddy that he says he warned against two years ago? It seems like Obama sees the nearest bandwagon and jumps on it. But I’m completely biased
true, but that’s ok, we love you anyway.
Aw!!! *hugs* ………in bed
Long time.
“Obama thought there were 57 states ”
Either you are slow of thinking, or you think we are. It was a misstatement; he meant 57 primaries, he said 57 states. I know it was a silly thing to say, but you just look dumb if you think he really doesn’t know how many states are in the Union.
If he had corrected himself, ok. But he didn’t. And hasn’t other than to say he was tired. If Dan Quayle had made the number of verbal misteps that have occured between Obama and Biden, he would have been impeached.
i’m to young to remeber anything about dan quayle…why is he such an easy target?
Because he spells “potato” “potatoe”.
Click on my name if you want to get an idea of why Dan Quayle’s quotes got him into so much trouble.
Har har
The rains in Spain fall mainly on McCain.
At least McCain knows how many states there are, unlike Obama.
ZOMG HE SED 57 STAITZ DAT MUSS MEEN HEEZ A MUZLIN!!!11 ITZ DE ONLY LOJIKUL REEZON!111 FINULLY TEH BASE HAZ A VOISE!1
Wow, another dem ‘tard.
BUT U SED HE SED DUDNT NO HOW MANY STATES AMIRITE?
I swear I,m going to come to your house and take your caps lock away! U UNDR STAND!11!
Argh ! Would ya be cuttin’ his nuts off too, me matey ?
Make sure and take the keyboard!!
Me thinks he generalizes too much…
Click my name for the Obama-57 states bit, courtesy Snopes.
I thought this one was funny. And I don’t really care how Palin pronounces nuclear. It might slow her down a bit if she’s ever requesting the launch codes.
nah, her husband takes care of the REALbusiness,she just sits back and tells herself that she is an executive while she stays at home where her husband thinks that she belongs.
Do you have any proof of this, or is it just another of your crazy unfounded claims?
Check out the findings on troopergate (where she was demonstrated to have violated Alaska ethical laws by unfairly pressuring her underlings). One of the things she did wrong was allow her husband “unprecedented access” to her employees.
Yes, I know it also said she was within her rights to fire Monaghan. She is still guilty of ethics violations.
EP, I think your Mom is calling.
So, you DID just make that up.
Another of your untruths confirmed.
I think I’ve lost all the respect I once had for you.
You have respect for anyone here?
That’s news.
Bots don’t have emotions.
I honestly don’t believe he is a bot, but I am increasingly believing that he is paid to do this.
“Thinks” she belongs? Isn’t that where all women are required to spend their time?
ohhhhhhhhhhh…………..
The ghost of Emmeline Pankhurst is really gonnae get you…….
Great: now I’m all paranoid that my ma is going to suddenly show up and smack me upside the head for just reading that. Thanks a lot.
woot, this is fan-freakin’-tastic!!
nice work!!!
I usually agree with Palin jokes, but this strikes me as less funny and more just plain mean. Prolly cause of Palin’s expression the last panel.
Yes because it is unfair to attack a woman. They are weak and can’t take it. That is just mean.
Absolutely, as a woman, I’m begging not to be punished for the naughty things I do. I just can’t take all the *erm* punishment.
Quit tempting me girl or I will do to you what I did to Lynn.
Teehee
*having dirty thoughts about what I will be requesting tonight*
*cough*
What? What was that? Did I just say something out loud?
Looks like I need to by more rope…
You gotta learn to improvise. Neckties? Stockings? One of these days I’ll need to show you how to bind someone’s arms with the shirt they’re wearing.
I do like improvisation but I am going for a certain feel. Besides, women love purple rope. I like to show I care enough to think ahead.
I don’t know, I’m kinda with Herb here, really lends an “in the moment” vibe. Not that I don’t love purple, I do, but I’m just saying…
He also has me wondering now about that shirt trick…
Allow me to demonstrate…
Ok, I will just add that to your list of tasks!
Then I will leave you to his expertise. I’ve tied with with shirts before but I don’t wear ties. But, leaving you to herb.
“buy,” not “by”
Not the joke itself, just the way it was delivered. If the last panel was taken out the reader wouldnt have any real chance to sympathize with Palin without imagining the next part of the scenario by themselves. The same applies for any joke, really. Whether a negative reaction is shown in the person its being made about can be the difference in whether or not a joke is considered amusing or mean.
Once again. New-ku-lar is the accepted ITB (inside the Beltway) pronunciation. They ALL say it like that.
Is Alaska inside said beltway? I didn’t think so.
Palin isn’t in DC yet, she could at least wait until then to show this side of her stupidity.
The people who think Palin is dumb are the stupid ones.
When she can’t name a single newspaper she has read, I will question her intelligence. She hasn’t shown much that I know of that suggests she is anything more than average.
Considering the trash they print in most papers, I don’t blame her for not reading them. Smart folks prefer truth to “journalism”, since none of them seem to be able to be unbiased like they say they all are.
She never said she didn’t read them. Rather, she said she did read them but was mysteriously unable to name any of them.
Lol, and where in the hell do these supposed smart people get their “truth” then? Fail.
*pssst* Right Wing blogs. Duh.
In the interest of fairness, the smear story that Palin’s son was actually her grandson was started on a left wing blog and somehow managed to make it into the mainstream media.
Anyone who believed that story is in the same league with the “obama
is a terrorist” folks. I mean really, its the only time on here where my
only repsonse to those claims would be “Dont be stupid… cmon.”
That’s an interesting viewpoint considering Palin majored in Journalism in College.
“The man who reads newspapers is less well informed than the man who reads nothing at all.” — Thomas Jefferson
Choosing what version of the quote to use vastly changes its meaning. Your says, ‘newspaper sucks’, this says ‘newspapers shouldn’t be your only source of info’
Perhaps also see:
Score!
pwned
You sir, are a WIN. It seems awfully quiet here though, I do wonder why EP didn’t respond to this.
Possibly because I don’t stay on this board 24/7.
So a googled quote is more accurate than one from memory. The essential idea is there.
No it isn’t. The essential idea was drastically changed in yours, even though the words are similar.
And while mine was googled, I understand that there is a chance that it is still wrong, because the way I originally remember the quote was arguing against reading only one newspaper (rather than only newspapers, but many of them)
.
Jane’s point about you not responding is somewhat justified though, because it does seem that as soon as someone proves you wrong you ignore it rather than respond.
That’s pretty much his posting history, if he can’t argue against it with his right wing talking points he moves on to greener pastures. Besides, posting a quote from memory without actually researching to make sure it was right so you don’t look like a jackass, from the kid who screams for proof anytime someone says something he doesn’t want to hear about his heroes, not very smart.
And yet you seem to be upset with Charlie that he hasn’t been glued to this board to respond to anything you might say with proof that you aren’t even going to believe because it didn’t come from one of your right wing blogs. Also, btw, anyone with a shred of reading comprehension ability would see that the “quote” that you were intending to use to support Palin’s lack of knowledge was actually NOT saying that reading newspapers is bad but instead was saying that reading ONLY newspapers and nothing else is bad.
What tags did you use to get that sort of formatting?
<blockquote>stuff goes here</blockquote>
The people who think Palin is smart ride the shortbus.
Are you going to give any evidence about what you said regarding Palin’s husband?
“nah, her husband takes care of the REALbusiness,she just sits back and tells herself that she is an executive while she stays at home where her husband thinks that she belongs.”
Or did you just make that up, like many of the other stupid things you’ve said?
I feel sorry for you. It must suck to be such a hateful and biased person…
I got your evidence. Please see my earlier post.
Her husband hates America.
And Obama’s pastor hates America- and so does Michelle Obama !
silly rabbit, propaganda’s for kids…
WIN
AArgh! What propaganda ye be talking about?
Apparently neither of them “hates” America enough to join a group that actively promotes state secession. Fail!
They could have Chicago…
Michelle is proud of this country, haven’t you heard? Rev Wright wants to improve things in America, aren’t you listening? Todd Palin, on the other hand, was a member of an organisation whose founder was killed in an illegal attempt to purchas plastic explosives, and whose famous quote is “The fires of hell are as icy glaciers compared to my hatred of America and her institutions”.
I’m sure you don’t have to be a genius to “get” why an African American might see some conflict between their love for America and their hatred of how blacks have been treated here? How long ago was the last time a black man was dragged to death behind a car in this country? How about- aw hell, I can’t even start cataloguing all the offenses against black americans, I’ll be here all day.
But-but-but- all I saw on the biased Liberal main stream media was Rev. Wright saying “Goddamn America”. How can that be?
What I find interesting is when I tried to YouTube Rev. Wright rantings lasting a long while. He’d spend a few minutes doing the fire-and-brimstone bit, but far more time being long and solemn. Fancy that.
What’s a shortbus?
It’s the little bus that goes around and picks up drunks, then takes them to numerous voting booths and pays them $10 to vote for Obama.
Wow, that’s a brilliant plan!
Proof? Oh noes, you have to make stuff up to support your side!
Silly Rabbit.
Because the drunks have their names in the voter registration books, and can sign in and be officially counted. Especially when they try to vote as Mickey Mouse or one of the Dallas Cowboys.
Well, in this country when they started integrating students with special needs into the regular school (where previously they had been in separate schools) they had to ride a different bus that was wheelchair accesible, since many of them used wheelchairs, and so the bus ended up being shaped a little different and shorter than a regular bus. Hence short bus has emerged as a somewhat derogatory term for someone who is mentally handicapped. Where are you from AC, just out of curiosity?

Cool! I’ve always wanted to visit your country, but it’ll have to wait until I have a steady job and the available cash.
Remember to bring a brolly! (The weather’s awful.)
NO U!
“I know you are but what am I?”
It’s not accepted in the Rust Belt, so I don’t know what belt you are referring to.
The Capital Beltway (Interstate 495).
So “inside the beltway” being the people in charge.
Mur-i-kah has too many belts. Rust Belt. Bible Belt. Capital Belt. And people are still whining about girls keeping their pants up.
Well they aren’t actually wearing any of the belts!
And it’s not the girls I see not wearing the belts, it’s the young guys sagging their pants down around their knees. Poor things can’t afford belts!!
Poor things can’t even walk!!
It’s why when I finally snap, I am going to chase them with guns.
That’s hardly a challenge, they’d only get about two steps before they tripped on their pants and fell on their faces with their boxer clad asses in the air. Come to think of it, that might be worth it…
Lol! I’d pay to see that!
Makes them all ride old escalators… that’ll teach em.
And suddenly, all this interest in “Joe the Plumber” makes so much more sense…
HAHA guys ur so funny. this is great. made my day!!!

DAMNIT! My clones are escaping!!!
Here, take this. *gives shotgun* Use it well. Clones are dangerous, my friend.
God, I can’t wait for this election to be over….
Actually, Webster’s New International Dictionary (unabridged) says that “noo-kew-lur” is a perfectly acceptable pronunciation, if uncommon.
But I guess that’s an understandable mistake. The Obamaniacs be not known fo’ chillin at de liberry.
I’m Pro-Obama, and am trilingual, thank you very much.
Does that mean I don’t spend much time at the library.
And if you’re going to insult people’s lack of proper grammar,
the right way to correct them is by using an internet meme, like
ENGLISH MOTHER****** DO YOU SPEAK IT?
beepbeepbeepbeepbeep…
Oh, sorry. I left my hypocrisy detector switched on.
Before you critiscise others, please learn to understand the difference between: (i)pronounciation and grammar,
(ii)a full stop and a question mark,
Also, please learn about the correct use of the comma.
Thank you. Have a nice, grammar-perfect, day.
Correcting people is more effective when your comment is spelling-perfect
oops, what was wrong?
damn, nnd itt wos goin soo wel…
ah yes, I see now: “pronunciation” not “pronounciation.”
At least the grammar was not so bad….
Also ‘criticise’, not ‘critiscise’
But the grammar was awesome!
Grammar nazi to a new extreme
it’s “teh” internet. Grammar doesn’t exist here…
Using “teh” instead of “the” is not a grammatical error.
(do you think it counts as dialect? Or just slang?)
Oops, I forgot to put “instead of the” in parenthesis.
I’m a crap grammar Nazi.
In bed.
ach awayyegoyamugye
Ah, too much Scotch this evening, eh lass?
DWM wanted to talk about his wang the next time someone mentioned Nazis
Oh yes, thanks for reminding me. My wang > Nazis. Thank you. *bows*
Not scotch: bona fide wegie.
Actually, my version of Webster’s indicates the regular ‘nuclear’ and a lesser used pronunciation ‘noo-kya-lur’. Which is slightly different, and sounds slightly less dumb when said out loud. Only slightly, though.
Why any pronunciation besides ‘nuclear’ would be acceptable is beyond me, but there you go. And it amuses me that you say that Obamaniacs aren’t known for their literacy, when he’s especially popular amongst people with higher educations.
I thought it was Bush who couldn’t say it correctly…?
Roflcopters
To everyone who’s making fun of this person’s pronunciation….
To someone from New England….please pronouce the following words:
FAR CAR
And to just about any 20-something around today, whether you’re wearing ‘bama beanies or not….please pronounce the following words..
ASK ASKS
Please….the pronunciation police is as ridiculous as the grammar police. Get real, everyone.
There is a different between an accent and just plain wrong.
noo-kew-ler is just plain wrong.
Oh, and I assume with “ask” you are referring to people saying “aks” which is also just plain wrong, but common enough to begrudgingly tolerate.
“Aks” should not be tolerated either
I’ll cringe, but I won’t call them out on it.
I treat garish mispronunciations the same as baby-talk.
“Lemme axe you a question about nuke-u-lar fission.”
“All right. I’ll let you ask a question about nuclear fission.”
And there is a world of difference between an accent (a regional pronunciation of a particular morpheme) and outright butchering of words. (‘though as my mother gets older, her New England — which is in the North East Ms. Palin– accent is getting atrocious. After hearing about how her feckin’ cah is pecked in the yahd cuz the gad-dem tia mount shit the bed, I did threaten to send her to speech therapy.)
She sounds like one of us!
Noo kew lur. hahahahaha
LOL, McBush and Failin are without doubt two peas in a pod!
Jiff

I’ll laugh as soon as I finish crying. :’(
Saw this like 4 hours ago.
I seen funnier.
Palin did horribly in the VP debates. It was hilarious. Especially the noo-kew-lur thing.
I lol at anyone who defends her. She’s been an awful choice for VP. Repubs are bailing ship right and left. I can’t tell you the number of conservatives I’ve talked to who aren’t voting this year because they’re so disgusted with McCain.
Lol! I’m glad that someone else finally noticed!
ich wichse lieber
Biden makes Quayle look like Albert Einstein. Three letter word: J-O-B-S.
Does anyone else realize that aside from George W. Bush and Sarah Palin, Dwight Eisenhower, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton all said “nucular”? Clinton seems to have shaped up recently, which has been nice. I think it’s pretty interesting and very telling that the use of “nucular” is being used as an attack now, and it wasn’t used during the Clinton Presidency. Also, George W. Bush used to say “nuclear,” towards the beginning of his first term. It regressed pretty rapidly to “nucular.”
Another thing that’s really easy to overlook is that people do this sort of thing all the time. Many people pronounce the word “jewelry” as “julery.” It isn’t proper pronunciation at all, but nobody jumps all over people for saying it like that. Granted, it isn’t as blatantly obvious as “nucular,” but it’s essentially the same error.
I guess my point is that people who think that the use of “nucular” rather than “nuclear” is an indication of intelligence should really take a linguistics course. Language changes over time. The word “horse” was originally “hros,” and the word “bird” was “bryd.” All this to say: “nucular” isn’t stupid, it’s just different.
/nod ask someone from philly to say water or creek, you’ll get wooder and crick. i’ve known immensely intelligent people who said “nucular” and i still cringe. i’m not defending palin though, i believe she’s a complete idiot.
Hahahaha!! XD
This is so cute! XD
This Sarah Palin lady is a joke right? I mean please say americans arent as stupid as to vote for this woman. She doesn’t believe dinosaurs existed. Us aussie’s find this lady unbelievable stupid. Come on america do you really want another George Bush running your country. Lol this lady’s a douche. Plus Obama can dance better =P
dancing skill as nothing to do with running a country plus she’s not that stupid ok i mean come on guys just because of how Bush says nuclear doesnt mean everyone in that party talks that way i mean you have to be freaking retarded to believe that b.s.
punctuation fail. not trying to be the grammar police or anything but in order to get a point across, commas and periods are generally a good idea.
I agree with this Jules character. If you are going to agrue a point please do so without mistreating the english lanuage. It really is rather sad when a 16 year old girl can punctuate better then a grown man. I also find it quite funny that she is known as the “pitbull with lipstick”, yet most of her supporters are going around with images of bulldogs. Breed fail.
That would include spelling, right? I didn’t want to state the obvious, and probably would have let it slide, but since you chose to have a go at Dan, I thought it only fair to bring you up on your shortcomings as well.

Funny! lolz
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH MCCAIN LOST
gg obama
for change
socialest = democrat?
4 more years of a republican (especially mccain) would be death to the world.
He did alot of good things in the war , but please, don’t tell me mccain makes sense. If you look at his program, you have to admit it or you are blind, sarcastic or pretty dumb
LOL!
