SECOND LOOK AT “Soylent Green is Liberals!”

SkinnerVic on September 23, 2008 at 11:38 PM

TheCulturalist on September 23, 2008 at 11:34 PM

Certainly there is a liberal infestation problem in Minnesota, but out in the exurbs we have arbitrarily extended the season to last all year long with no bag limit.

I went to Cabela’s recently and bought myself a new heavy-barreled varmint gun and 1000 rounds of Nosler partitions. Now all I need to do is sit in a field, throw out my decoys and wait for the them to swarm.

Bishop on September 23, 2008 at 11:43 PM

Yeah, I’m sure Bill’s really worried about this loser thinks or says about him…

SuperCool on September 23, 2008 at 11:47 PM

“Bubba and the girls on the View. I wonder how Barry and Joe enjoyed it?

bill30097 on September 23, 2008 at 11:38 PM”

I just watched it. I don’t think the cows on the View liked it much. I’m sure Joe-Bama didn’t.

It’s the first time I’ve seen a clip were the girls kept their mouth shut for their guest though. You know, even if they’re mad at him right now, they love that guy.

hawkdriver on September 23, 2008 at 11:48 PM

Slansky doesn’t understand that Clinton’s doing Obama a favor by keeping low. He never energized the swing voters (and even less so now) and only has the ‘mystique’ for deadhead congenital liberals who would vote for a 50-lb sack of whale shit if it sported a jackass button.

whitetop on September 23, 2008 at 11:56 PM

That author, Slansky has his panties all in a bunch. LOL
.
I love that Chelsea joke!, had forgotten about that, funny article of a lib melt down.

abinitioadinfinitum on September 23, 2008 at 11:58 PM

I’d like to see a link to this

Me too. The theory is that the MSM censored this, reporting that McCain told a bad joke, so that proves it true.

calbear on September 23, 2008 at 11:58 PM

The ironic thing here is Slansky finally is willing to admit what he’s known for at least the last decade about Bill Clinton, but wouldn’t say publicly in order not to hurt “The Cause”. But he doesn’t stop to think that if he and other Clinton supporters hadn’t fought to keep Bill in office in ’98 and early ’99, it would have been more likely that an incumbent President Gore would have won election to a full term is 2000.

If Obama doesn’t win this thing, Slansky and others are going to be at the throats of the Clintonites (and possibly poor Joe Biden) post-election over who’s to blame for the loss — that is, during the times when they’re not busy claiming Karl Rove and Diebold stole another victory from the Democrats.

jon1979 on September 24, 2008 at 12:10 AM

They still don’t get that blowjob was no big deal. It was the lying under oath and suborning perjury thing.

Hell, if he can throw the election to McCain, I’ll forgive Clinton for that, too.

hepcat on September 24, 2008 at 12:11 AM

Reading the article on Huffington Post was good for a laugh. These are the same people who lacked the character and integrity to admit Clinton lied under otah and should have been removed from office. Not to mention sexual harrassment. This group of people backed Clinton and FOREVER lost any degree of credibilty as resposible adults.

Now they are upset because Clinton seems to have grown up and been the victim of their hate. It is amazing how being the vicitm of the FAR LEFT’s hate can open a person’s eyes.
Add to the hate, the fact the MSM turning on the beloved Clintons and one can begin to LEARN the far left and the MSM has no integrity, credibility or maturity. What goes around comes around.

Clinton just may realize that UH-UH-Bama being elected would be bad for this country.

DVPTexFla on September 24, 2008 at 12:11 AM

Bishop on September 23, 2008 at 11:43 PM

heh.

good times.

TheCulturalist on September 24, 2008 at 12:17 AM

It’s odd. Whenever I read a male liberal’s column, the voice “reading” in my head has a lisp.

Security Mom on September 24, 2008 at 12:19 AM

OK, that’s a new approach. Slam him for screwing an intern, disrespect him by calling him by his first name, remind him that some people think his daughter’s ugly, call him petty … then ask him to do something for you. Yeah, that might work.

Ronnie on September 24, 2008 at 12:20 AM

They still don’t get that blowjob was no big deal. It was the lying under oath and suborning perjury thing.

hepcat on September 24, 2008 at 12:11 AM

Absolutely. Lied under oath and suborned perjury in a case where he was the defendant. He escaped removal from office, but “depends on the meaning of ‘is’” and “I did not have sexual relations…” are destined to be the two most memorable moments in his two terms.

the only upside was the COMEDY GOLD that lyin’ pantload generated.

sulla on September 24, 2008 at 12:21 AM

I almost hate to give Clinton this much credit, but what if he’s holding back on his support for BO because he really does have the country’s best interests in mind?

TubbyHubby on September 23, 2008 at 10:50 PM

This thought has plagued me too. It is a habit to think Clinton is the enemy and can do no good. But putting the obivious self-interest in 2012 aside… Clinton and the PUMAs had the close-up view of watching the mindless worship that Obama inspired. They, better than we, know it for what it is.

The Clintons were where we are–before us. In fact it was they who dug up Reverend Wright. They thought it was an issue before we knew who he was. The Clintions dug up all the other connections too. They know exactly who Obama is and they don’t like him.

And as Democrats go (putting aside personal morality) Clinton is a patriotic American. You know when he hears the National Antheum his hand goes to his heart out of love and devotion. (What ever was left of the draft dogger is gone now). I mean he feels it like I feel it. And like the Obamas just don’t feel it. Or at least not that I can tell.

I think it is possible that Clinton does want McCain to win for the same reason that I do. McCain is better for the country. I wish he would come out and say it.

petunia on September 24, 2008 at 12:48 AM

I’m laughing at how stupid the Left is…oh and thank you to those of you who explained astroturfing the other day…I can kind of see how they are on the “McCain stop hiding Sarah meme now” (I viewed another post and saw heading for others with the same)…idiots like we aren’t on to them now…After the way they’ve been treating Sarah, if I were McCain\Palin I wouldn’t give them the time of day…

Lets face it…the Left watches ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC and the Right watches Fox and reads conservative blogs … so they are only preaching to the hate filled loons who suscribe to their idealogy already…doesn’t get them any more than what they have now…

We are now officially the Divided People of America…

CCRWM on September 24, 2008 at 12:50 AM

There would never even be a contest if a Republican could get away with insinuating weird unfounded theories.

leetpriest on September 24, 2008 at 1:00 AM

High political concepts at work.

So, if Hillary had been more of a hands-on wife, Bill would not have gone to Monicathong for his B.J.’s, and Obama’s bid for the Oval Office would now be secure?

Ergo, it’s all Hillary’s fault?

Exit question: What does Michelle O think about the fellatio issue?

profitsbeard on September 24, 2008 at 1:05 AM

Allah once asked, ‘Do we owe them?’ referring to the Clintons. When I see something like this it always makes me think of that question. The Clenus may very well go down in history as a beloved anti-hero of conservatives. I think he once said during his term that we were witnessing the end of history (which was obviously not the case). Could he be saving history now?

JimRich on September 24, 2008 at 1:11 AM

How naive this dude Slansky is. Naive, indeed.

Schadenfreude on September 24, 2008 at 1:12 AM

These people are just not right.

sheesh on September 24, 2008 at 1:14 AM

Bill Clinton loves America way more than Slansky.

Schadenfreude on September 24, 2008 at 1:15 AM

McCain long ago apologized to the Clinton family in writing for his nasty and ill-considered comments about Chelsea.

Apparently, Obama has yet to apologize to the Clintons for playing the race card against them, and by his mischaracterizations of Mr. Clinton’s positions on things like NAFTA. In essence, Obama ran against Mr. Clinton, not Mrs. Clinton, and Mr. Clinton still rankles.

That’s the crux of the matter, at least according to the left-leaning TNR.

unclesmrgol on September 24, 2008 at 1:28 AM

Okay I just listened to the Greta interview. And would someone please explain the difference between David Duke and Jerimiah Wright.

Someone should ask Barack Obama that directly. Let him hang himself by denouncing Wright or defending him. Either way he condemns is own racist heart.

petunia on September 24, 2008 at 1:36 AM

petunia on September 24, 2008 at 1:36 AM

I don’t think it would be right to hold 5 minutes of uh,uh,uh,uh…. against him.

TheCulturalist on September 24, 2008 at 1:43 AM

Obamanazis accuse Bubba of being a racist.

Obamanazis + the media FORCE Hillary out of the primary.

Now, panicked Obamanazis accuse Bill of not helping them win.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BostonBeatnik on September 24, 2008 at 1:54 AM

It’s odd. Whenever I read a male liberal’s column, the voice “reading” in my head has a lisp.

Security Mom on September 24, 2008 at 12:19 AM

Me too! Good God, Clinton Derangement Syndrome lives on. I’m really pleased to see Obamassiah fanatics behave like this, of course. It really appeals to those PUMA voters. One thing the PUMAS seem to so very well is use the web to communicate with each other. I’m sure this article will make it to many email boxes over the next couple of weeks.

Nice job, douchebag. Please do keep it up. President and Senator Clinton are just so desperate to gain your approval, you know.

funky chicken on September 24, 2008 at 2:04 AM

If Obama loses a close election — one in which even one state where you could have made a difference goes for McCain because you sat home and pouted — it will be on you. We will remember that you couldn’t be bothered to rise above your petty resentments for something as trivial as saving your country from the enemies of everything you profess to believe in. We forgave you for Monica, Bill, but we won’t forgive you for this.

Well, it’s refreshing not hear the lib-tards call it something other than racism that Obama might will lose.

E L Frederick (Sniper One) on September 24, 2008 at 2:04 AM

I almost hate to give Clinton this much credit, but what if he’s holding back on his support for BO because he really does have the country’s best interests in mind?

TubbyHubby on September 23, 2008 at 10:50 PM

at least 50/50. Pres. Clinton was great tearing into those Ron Paul/troofer nuts a while back too.

Greta asked a great question on the Wright vs Duke thing. I don’t think there is a pro-Obama way to answer that question, to be honest.

funky chicken on September 24, 2008 at 2:09 AM

Clinton defamed the Oval Office. Period. What he’s doing for McCain against Obama only proves it’s only ever been about him. If it works, great. But it won’t do anything to drag his legacy out of the mud. The very idea that Obama is a candidate is proof of a dumbed-down electorate. I’m feeling no compassion tonight.

Connie on September 24, 2008 at 2:17 AM

Oh man. I need video of that!

lorien1973 on September 23, 2008 at 10:46 PM

Me too. My phone rang just as the Clenis interview began.

I missed it.

soundingboard on September 24, 2008 at 2:50 AM

This article from HuffPuff,is the most brilliant
Liberal mental gymnastics that seems to defy any
other previous Democratic speak to date!!

So,if Gore was President,is it safe to assume then
that we could of kissed away Global Warming!!!

Well,looks like the “Fairy Tale” besmirchment comment
popped the Unity button with Bill righting off the
African America voters,and add in the 1/3 of white
Liberal’s in the poll that refuse to vote for their
own Liberal nominee,and presto———ITS BILLS FAULT!!

About six months ago,it wasn’t a very good outlook in this
election for us Republicans,but boy O,have the tables turn
ed in favour of McCain/Palin!!

Outstanding work Bill,and I’m so-glad that the Liberal Civil
Democratic War,has been contained within their own party,but
Hopey/Changey is doing his best to try and paint Team McCain
/Palin with his racist card brush,nice try though!!!!!!!!!!

canopfor on September 24, 2008 at 3:09 AM

Here’s a shocker: what if Clinton actually does not think Obama would be better than McCain?

Seixon on September 24, 2008 at 3:10 AM

The Clinton’s detest Obama for discarding the script and improvising.

Plan was: Hillary/Obama till ’16, then Obama/? afterwards.

Too bad for Hill that she didn’t consult with Alice Palmer before beginning her campaign.

And of course Bill has his own motives. Who here doesn’t think Slick would prefer attending the funerals of foreign heads of state with Palin instead of Biden?!!!

As far as Moonbat recipes. I stopped takin’ ‘em for the meat.
It’s been my experience that by the time you get ‘em cleaned by squeezing the crap outta them, that there’s nothing left of any substance.

Tho I still like smackin’ ‘em with a clue-bat.

soundingboard on September 24, 2008 at 3:47 AM

Well, if we’re gonna have a depression and double the national debt we might as well get Obama in there and have him take the blame.

gmoonster on September 24, 2008 at 3:49 AM

A poll that is not for the faint of heart

KentAllard on September 24, 2008 at 4:20 AM

I do so love watching a liberal go on a rampage of blaming the wrong people. The truth is that Bill Clinton and Hillary have absolutely no responsibility to help Obama at all. After the dirty politics he played to win I would have told him to go away when he asked for help.

Hawthorne on September 24, 2008 at 4:47 AM

I think it is possible that Clinton does want McCain to win for the same reason that I do. McCain is better for the country. I wish he would come out and say it.

petunia on September 24, 2008

Sorry, petunia, but Billy Jeff is a lying, cheating, rapist with no good intentions toward anybody but himself. I can never be made to believe that he cares about anything beyond the end of his male member. Total narcissist and nothing more.

SKYFOX on September 24, 2008 at 5:32 AM

KentAllard on September 24, 2008 at 4:20 AM

Meh. Don’t forget that this is the network that sandbagged Gov. Palin after the Gibson interview. I’m suspicious of everything they say and do and would not be surprised if they vastly oversampled Democrat voters. They admit they oversampled black voters, but claim to have corrected for that. Shyeah…right.

Their desperation is palpable.

ManlyRash on September 24, 2008 at 6:15 AM

A poll that is not for the faint of heart

KentAllard on September 24, 2008 at 4:20 AM

Unless McCain starts NOW pinning the crashing economy to the Democrats that have lead congress for the past 2 years, it will be squarely placed at the feet of GWB (partially rightly so) and thus the Republicans, and thus McCain.

Why have we heard nothing about the correlation between the Dems taking control and the disasterous economy???

McCain is wasting his time trying to link BO to Fannie Mae execs when he has Davis on his campaign. Link the crash to Congress going Dem.

stenwin77 on September 24, 2008 at 6:58 AM

KentAllard on September 24, 2008 at 4:20 AM

J.J. Sefton on September 24, 2008 at 7:06 AM

vastly oversampled Democrat voters. They admit they oversampled black voters, but claim to have corrected for that. Shyeah…right.

ManlyRash on September 24, 2008 at 6:15 AM

Not only democraps, but specifically blacks.

“METHODOLOGY: This ABC News/Washington Post poll was conducted by telephone Sept. 19-22, 2008, among a random sample of 1,082 adults, including an oversample of African Americans (weighted to their correct share of the national population), for a total of 163 black respondents. Results among the 916 registered voters surveyed have a 3-point error margin; among the 780 likely voters, 3.5-points. Sampling, data collection and tabulation by TNS of Horsham, PA.”

They say they weighted the results, but weighing isn’t always accurate.

csdeven on September 24, 2008 at 7:07 AM

Boy these guys are mad. Anyone else scared if we win?

hawkdriver on September 23, 2008 at 10:51 PM

Not as scared as I would be if we lose.

MarkTheGreat on September 24, 2008 at 7:19 AM

You’ve gotten so caught up in yesterday that you’ve stopped thinking about tomorrow.

Oh, Bill is thinking about his tomorrows, specifically, the ones in and around 2012. Only a fools assumes the Clintons do things out of rage and spite.

Kafir on September 24, 2008 at 7:20 AM

Bill Clinton gets on the road and spends every day until the election sincerely and wholeheartedly communicating the urgency of electing Obama. You’re the greatest politician of your generation, Bill. Surely you can fake enthusiasm for a month.

Yeah right. They may want BO as pres less than I. I just did see Bill endorse Mr.Palin as tough and admirable on Greta tonight. Oh man, this is too good.

Benjamin9 on September 24, 2008 at 7:21 AM

hawkdriver on September 23, 2008 at 10:55 PM

McCain’s still ahead. I find it interesting that the only state Obama is winning is Vermont. Not even Delaware.

And no, these polls aren’t all that accurate. Too bad.

MarkTheGreat on September 24, 2008 at 7:23 AM

I think of the Clintons’ promise of campaigning for Obama as being done on radio. While they promise to campaign for the ‘zero’, they are just flipping him off to his face.

Bill didn’t stay on message when he campaigned for Hillary. Certainly helping someone else is not his style.

TomJW on September 24, 2008 at 7:33 AM

Are you saying, Bill, that you can forgive McCain for calling Chelsea “ugly” but you can’t forgive Obama for defeating Hillary?

That’s right. The Clintons are first and foremost politicians, when are the libs going to get a clue, their politicians could give a rat’s arse about anything but winning.

4shoes on September 24, 2008 at 7:37 AM

Thanks a lot AP, now I can no longer say that I’ve never been to HuffPo.

Akzed on September 24, 2008 at 9:33 AM

I certainly am liking Bubba a lot more now that he has become a republican.

SaintOlaf on September 24, 2008 at 9:47 AM

I don’t think there’s any way Hillary would accept the VP slot if they decided to ditch Joe. She’d rather watch him lose and better her chances for 2012.

thevastlane on September 24, 2008 at 10:24 AM

If Obama loses a close election — one in which even one state where you could have made a difference goes for McCain because you sat home and pouted — it will be on you – Paul Slansky

I thought Clinton was a racist. They even took away his ‘first black President’ title

The Obamaites went for the jugular against the Clintons

Now you have a raging racist. How is a racist going to campaign for the first black Caesar?

Paul Slansky should take the Clinton’s place. He is not a racist but a moralist. His name rhymes with Saul Alinsky

As Saul Alinsky wrote

Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future.

Paul Slansky must be willing to let go of the past and change the future. He can lead Obama to victory

entagor on September 24, 2008 at 11:15 AM

Boy these guys are mad. Anyone else scared if we win?

hawkdriver on September 23, 2008 at 10:51 PM

Scared of what, whining babies? I hope they all commit suicide.

Captain Hate on September 24, 2008 at 11:49 AM

Maybe even Bill recognizes that Obambi would be a bad president and is sitting quietly so as not to peeve the Dems too bad for what may come after Barry. If Barack loses, he’ll disappear and Bill wants to stay around the party a little longer.
