    My bad!

  2. Hmm... says:

    I think he has Bullshit everywhere….

    *yawn*
    -
    Next!

  4. Republicans and Democrats both lie and have affairs. Neither are better than the other. So keep the partisan “Republikans/Demokrats r cheeting loosers” to yourselves. That is all.
    (And yes, I do think it’s my website, so I’m telling all y’all what to do.)

    • Meowth says:

      Yes, it is time to elect someone from a third party and see if they would be any different. Anyone volunteer to vote for them?

      • Nah. I don’t like them either.

      • Jane St.Clair says:

        I don’t know if it would. As soon as they got there they’d start governing with reelection in mind like all the rest. Everyone in Washington is afraid to stand up and actually do something while they’re there because they might *gasp* not be around next term.

        • Bitter's Chef says:

          Easy answer to that problem – one and done. If they won’t set term limits, we will. Re-elect absolutely nobody.

          The guys who are in there for 2-3 terms are bad enough. The thing that bugs the crap outta me is clowns like Kennedy and Conyers who are more zombiefied than Reagan is at the moment, yet their egos are so far out of whack that they won’t accept that somebody else who doesn’t have two feet in the grave could adequately fill their role.

          In Kennedy’s case, it’s not as if they lack the spawn and the money to buy the seat for a family member 2-3 generations younger.

          Regardless of where folks are in the political spectrum, most agree that flushing the politicians out after one term would be an improvement.

          • Dhoti says:

            I don’t know — what some call “governing without worrying about re-election”, others call “ignoring the will of your constituents”.

            In any event, if you’re going to clean house, don’t just stop with the politicians — kick out their staffers and change the locks. Staffers, deputy directors, etc. are the real political underclass, highly invested in the status quo, more powerful than they appear, and stubbornly difficult to get rid of.

            • Deep Thought says:

              Like anal warts. Only uglier.

              • froofrou says:

                And less useful.

                • Dhoti says:

                  If only. But when the corner office is occupied for two-year stretches by a procession of incompetent boobs chosen either for their drinking prowess or their loyalty to the political machine, it can be useful to have those lifers beneath the surface who know what’s going on.

                  The question is, how do you keep them in their place?

                  • Deep Thought says:

                    Make them Borg?

                    • Dhoti says:

                      They might already be — they’re just optimized for lack of work rather than for galactic domination. (Last time I was at the DMV, I swear they blinked in unison.)

                      • Deep Thought says:

                        *shudders*

                        Oh sh!t just imagining that creeps me right the fu(k out. Like Village of the Damned or something. (Damned Village Minions?)

                      • froofrou says:

                        Our DMV here is rather quick, and makes me think that it’s actually run decently. Now, if you go to our post office…….well, the POTUS needs to stay away from that example as a good one…….

                        • Now see, our post office is actually friendly and efficient. But it wasn’t always that way, so I can understand how the post office analogy is a bad one.

                        • Dhoti says:

                          My experience (limited to half a dozen states in the eastern half of the US) is that the smaller the office, the better the service. The region of the country didn’t seem to matter much.

                          (Froo, I have the impression that you live in a smaller town — is that right?)

                        • Deep Thought says:

                          There’re two regulars in our local. I know their kids and grandkids. It’s kinda cool.

                        • froofrou says:

                          Dhoti, I live in a city with approximately 120,000 as of 2005. It’s not huge, but it’s not tiny either. I think that’s the reason I love this city so much. It’s got all the convenience of a big city with the ambiance of a small town. And we don’t tend to vandalize cars here based solely on bumper stickers that differ with certain political views, as they do in a town lived in by one of my best friends :-)

                        • Jane St.Clair says:

                          Our BMV is a paragon of efficiency as well. I love it. Our post office, not so much, but mainly because of one jerk who works there.

                        • Dhoti says:

                          Okay, froo, that tracks — the best DMV I can remember was in a city of ~160k. Beats hands-down the service in my current city of 1M++.

                          Strangely, I’ve generally gotten great service at the post office, but I have a strategy — be nice and open with self-deprecation. (For example, during the Christmas rush, I got an employee who was yelling at everyone else to hand-deliver my package because I referred to the bin next to the APC as “the big dumpster thing” and called myself stupid for not knowing how to open it. It was actually full.)

                          BMV? That’s a new one to me. I’ve heard RMV, from Massachusetts — a model of brusque efficiency. I rather liked it.

                        • Deep Thought says:

                          There are 800 in the town I live in. The nearest city has 32,000, but that population is mostly transient, so the usual number is around 8-10,000.

                        • froofrou says:

                          Dhoti, I seem to get good service at the post office as far as the desk people are concerned (at least at one post office branch that I go to…..I REFUSE to go to the one near my house), but God forbid that you need something delivered across town in less than a week. And for it to go to my parents’ house three hours away has taken two weeks or more for a simple letter. I don’t know if that’s the PO as a whole, or just this town…..but damn…..

                        • Dhoti says:

                          800? Wow. I’ve lived in buildings with larger populations than that…

                        • froofrou says:

                          Lived in a building with more than 800 people…..I KNEW IT!! You’re the hobo I kicked in the groin for begging change that one time!

                        • Dhoti says:

                          froo, my theory is that offices in smaller towns are set up for getting mail into and out of town, and local mail tends to get handled on the side. I have some vague recollections about why that is, but nothing concrete I can point to, unfortunately.

                          Then again, service here can be spastic. Netflix is usually prompt, but I’ll often get two or three copies of Aviation Week (a weekly) at once.

                        • Jane St.Clair says:

                          Yeah, it’s really hard to get in the habit of calling it that. Stands for Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

                          One Christmas I was walking out of the post office and saw an elderly lady with an armful of packages walking up the steps. I went back to open the door when the manager came out and told the lady that they were closed (it was ten minutes early). The lady look flabbergasted and told him that she had driven a long way. I told the man that it was Christmas and he should be ashamed of himself and he ended up letting the lady in. He didn’t learn any life lessons, though, because he continues to be a jerk.

                        • Deep Thought says:

                          Sometimes it sucks.

                          Closest thing we have to a strip show is when the 500 lb. housebound lady in the corner trailer forgets to shut the blinds when she’s having her sponge bath.

                          *shudders*

                          Fortunately, I live on the outskirts, so I can’t even see my nearest neighbor. Like 1/2 a mile away.

                          It suits me.

                          *works with bomb making implements to complete stereotype*

                        • Dhoti says:

                          Now that you mention it, froo, I don’t know how the populations compared. The high-rises I’ve lived in were much taller than the projects — one, in fact, had a great view down at a notorious project under demolition — but the units were probably bigger, too. Hmmm.

                          Good thing you have Redtube, huh, DT? :)

                        • Deep Thought says:

                          O.M.G.!111!!

                          *cue heavenly choir*

                          *retires to bunk*

                          *worships at the altar of Dhoti*

                          I DO NOW!11!!

                        • eddiepscetti says:

                          Ok, speaking of mail service, flat out the service here is excellent. I can get something across the country in no more then two days, and that’s general delivery. When sending stuff to the States, it usually takes about seven days to get there, but getting anything from the States to here takes at least two weeks. The only thing they don’t do here that I wish they did was pick mail up at your house.

                      • Damn, that’s twice that Dhoti has made me laugh in one night. :lol:

                • Dhoti says:

                  The military does it — young 2LTs manage to survive their first commands without accidentally surrendering or getting shot in the back by their Sergeant Majors — but I wouldn’t put a congressman up against a fresh lieutenant in a battle of wills.

    • m00finsan says:

      Yes, but it’s only Republicans who get up on their collective high horse and preach to us about how we need to live our lives while turning around and doing the exact opposite.

    • andy says:

      except republicans keep trying to claim that they’re about “Family Values” and utmost morality. sure, they’re all scumbags, but the repubs like to take it one step further and become scumbag hypocrites.

  5. Nana says:

    That’s what he gets for flinging it around like that.

  6. Chris says:

    Why is it that Sanford is the one being slammed when John Edwards cheated on his DYING wife…

    Double standards..Idiots…

    • eddiepscetti says:

      While it’s true he cheated, I think most people were pissed that he went away for 5 days and didn’t let anyone know where he was. Not that I like Edwards, but did he do that?

      • Jane St.Clair says:

        Also, I believe we talked about Edwards further up. And we fully talked about what an epic douchebag he was a year ago. When it happened.

    • Rattus says:

      And Newt Gingrich cheated on his cancerous wife. How far back are we going to take this?
