My bad!
I think he has Bullshit everywhere….
Standing too close to anyone in Washington will do that to you.
*yawn*

Next!
No. That’s Santorum. LOL
*facepalm*
Nesting fail.
Hey DT, can you please explain how you embed that link, and make it show the word you choose?
It’s easier if I link to it than if I try to explain. To embed text, at this site, use the first line you see here.
The “http://whateveryourlinkis” goes between the quotations, and the word you want to turn blue (hyperlink) goes between the >last two tags so it’s like this: >Linked word
<a href=”put_url_here”>write_what_people_should_see_here</a>
Uhm, ewwwww.. I really didn’t need to know that..
Sorry. Whenever I think of this douchie I can’t help but think of Rep. Santorum…
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.)
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.
There is Bernie Saunders, Socialist from Vermont. Has he kept it in his pants?
Yes, but only because no one will fu(k him.
And yet again, SB hits it out of the park. Well played!
*curtsies*
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.
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.
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.
Like anal warts. Only uglier.
And less useful.
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?
Make them Borg?
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.)
*shudders*
Oh sh!t just imagining that creeps me right the fu(k out. Like Village of the Damned or something. (Damned Village Minions?)
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.
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?)
There’re two regulars in our local. I know their kids and grandkids. It’s kinda cool.
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
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.
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.
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.
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…..
800? Wow. I’ve lived in buildings with larger populations than that…
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!
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.
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.
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*
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?
O.M.G.!111!!
*cue heavenly choir*
*retires to bunk*
*worships at the altar of Dhoti*
I DO NOW!11!!
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.
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.
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.
And which planet are you from again?
No, he’s right; your average Democratic hypocrite is pretty clear about thinking that the rules apply to everyone else.
So all Democrats are hypocrites then? Nice generalization, butt fungus.
We notice you didn’t say anything to m00finsan up there about generalizations.
^^^^^^^^^^
He’s gotta point, E. m00finsan’s comment is total troll.
Fair enough. m00finsan’s comment was definitely inflammatory and highly unnecessary and was EXACTLY what I was hoping we could avoid on this one. We’ve been over it SO many times.
In one.
Dhoti did say “average,” not “all,” so we’re being a bit overly defensive.
Exactly my point. While Senator Wide Stance says that none of us should be trolling for dong in airport bathrooms, including himself, Al Gore has no problem exempting himself, his generous benefactors, and anyone named “Clinton” (except for Roger, presumably) from his ideology.
Interesting how it played out the same way here, isn’t it? m00f gets a bit of a free pass because he’s going after Rethuglicans.
No, no, you’re right. I should’ve wagged a finger at m00f too for being obviously inflammatory, but I did get upset over it below. But mostly because it brought YOU into it.
*senator wide stance*
HEH. I’ve met him. He is a douchie.
Um, you might want to be clearer as to the location of that meeting, chief…
Somehow, I really don’t doubt it.
ROFLMAO! University of Idaho. In the ladies room.
And yeah, while I think they all turn into hypocrites after a few years in the cesspool — assuming they didn’t walk in that way — I’m not making assumptions about the relative or absolute proportions on either side of the aisle.
Yeah, John Edwards comes to mind. But all the locals here knew what he was for a long time. The running joke is why the dogs didn’t bite him when he jogged. (Because they had to eat 3-4 piles of cat poop to get the taste out of their mouth)
That guy has always creeped me out.
Its the hair, I’m telling you…
He and Rod Blago have the same Tribble stylist.
He, Rod Blago, and John Davidson. The style is called The Game Show Host.
Oh I think that has a lot to do with it. Seriously, for 400 dollars there is no excuse for that limp dishrag on his head. Plus he just oozes smarmyness. I voted for Kerry in the primaries because Edwards seemed off and poor Howard Dean had crashed and burned by the time we got to vote.
As (many of us) have said before, in 2004 we didn’t vote FOR Kerry/Edwards as much as we voted AGAINST GWB. He is teh sleaze. Dhoti actually made a good comparison calling him a used-car salesmen.
Whoever let that guy out of the used-car dealership needs to be shot. Just sayin’.
Now this is actually kinda funny. LOL
Used car dealers and over the top televangelists are society’s great uniters. Anyone with a scintilla of sanity loathes both!
My father and 2 of my uncles used to be in the used car business (the uncles owned it and my dad was a salesman). Not even having multiple family members in the business has improved my opinion of them.
My dad said he wasn’t a very good salesman. This surprised my mother who said he was full of enough shit that he should’ve been great at it.
“No cat food for Victor tonight!”
Amen.
John Edwards… Isn’t he the guy who sees dead people?
DAMMIT! This is EXACTLY what I was trying to avoid. Now you’ve summoned the D-word again.
As a card carrying Republican, the only thing I will tell you to do is get the hell off my lawn. Besides, I don’t even have a horse!
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.
That’s what he gets for flinging it around like that.
Rule 34..
Why is it that Sanford is the one being slammed when John Edwards cheated on his DYING wife…
Double standards..Idiots…
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?
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.
And Newt Gingrich cheated on his cancerous wife. How far back are we going to take this?
