I do agree with some your assessments, but I am glad you are here with us.

Always.

Hmm.

Well, at least you are big enough to admit you are incapable forming an original thought.

Fed45 on October 31, 2009 at 4:38 AM

Yes, repeating jokes to other people is exactly proof I can’t come up with an original thought on my own. Cause of course people never quote famous people.

Relax.

Jim Treacher on October 31, 2009 at 12:11 AM

Always.

Yes, I’m sure he’d be worried about competition from me on a random blog thread, when everything I’m typing can easily be put into Google for reference.

These aren’t even his obscure jokes, unless you count everything he did as obscure, which is understandable. The man died just when his career could have been taking off.

“CNN poll: 71% say Palin’s unqualified to be president”

CNN Poll?

Since it is a CNN Poll it is possible that it is a biased poll against Sarah Palin based on the bias of the audience and respondents’ sampling.

So, Sarah Palin is “unqualified to be president?”

Not true!

If Barrack Hussein Obama, who barely served as Senator before and during his run for the Presidency, and who was nothing but a leftist, Marxist, Radical Community Organizer who spend much of his formative years in other nations, nations in which Islam was the main influence, something that Obama praised, thus making him not as “American” as a person born and raised here, is qualified to be president of the USA, then certainly Sarah Palin who DID have more executive experience, as PTA activist, Mayor, and Governor, compared to John McCain’s limited experience – Senator, never as an executive, Governor, Mayor, etc., and more proper experience to serve as President of the United States of American than Obama’s, who had a strong lack of experience, is qualified.

Examples: Obama openly spoke about how he loved the Muslim call to prayer while living in Africa and Asia. He also gave a speech recently in which he stated that the USA is NOT a Christian Nation, but that the USA is one of the Largest Muslim nations, having among the largest Muslim populations in the world.

Clearly he was downplaying the Christian influence, history, and cultural mores and values, while building up the Islamic ones.

He also was raised and indoctrinated in Marxism, etc.

Clearly his influences are diametrically opposed to US history, culture, and mores, which carries over into why he is LESS qualified to serve as President of the USA than a person born and raised here with standard, patriotic mores, values, and Love of Country.

Sarah Palin has the upbringing and cultural influence and love of the USA that Obama lacks. She was not raised on, and indoctrinated into Islam, the call to prayer being the most beautiful sound she’s ever heard, or thinking that the USA is not a “Christian Nation,” but that it is one of the largest Muslim nations, or has among the largest Muslim populations in the world. Sarah Palin was not indoctrinated into Radical leftist philosophy, politics, etc., or Communism, Fascism, or Socialism as Barrack Obama has been, nor has she been active in them, as Barrack Hussein Obama has been.

That makes Sarah Palin more of a true US citizen with US values, mores, and cultural identity than Obama.
No.

If Obama is “qualified” to be president, then clearly Sarah Palin, who is more qualified than Obama, can serve as president.

I never once denied it. I used absurd jokes in response to absurd questions, all from the same comedian, without changing even a word. I know he isn’t a big name exactly, but I assumed someone would recognize at least one of them.

Esthier on October 30, 2009 at 11:02 PM

Relax.

So you admit it.

you think odumbos solution looks anything like that

you are just trying to diminish what a commie we have in charge supported by a rabid congress

from day one the stimulus ( hah ) was nothing more than stuffing the pockets of the public sector with funds they don’t even know what it will be spent on

consider the attack on the dollar as another raid on peoples wealth and you might realize what shitbags we have running the show

GWB had his weaknesses but in no way does he equate with the current criminals

Hedberg, actually.

Esthier on October 30, 2009 at 10:11 PM

So you admit it.

It’s unfortunate Mitch Hedberg is no longer alive to accuse you of stealing his jokes without attribution.

Fed45 on October 30, 2009 at 7:45 PM

Dude (or Dudette,whichever it is), between your comments to me and Treacher, you B trippin’.
Word.

Jenfidel on October 30, 2009 at 6:27 PM

I’m not sure how to take that from you.

Which other Mitch Hedburg jokes did you tell?

Jim Treacher on October 30, 2009 at 6:21 PM

Hedberg, actually.

I saw this wino, he was eating grapes. I was like, “Dude, you have to wait.”

Rice is great if you’re really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.

I’m not saying that Bush could have run for president. I was asked why I don’t think Obama’s done much to change the country, and saying he’s doing what I think his predecessor would have done is my way of explaining that. How can you call it “change” if it’s what Bush would have done?

That’s all.

It’s still a non-starter. Bush would not have had the opportunity to the things Barry has done. You might as well say “Well, Clinton would have done the same thing”. Heck, why not conjecture what GHW Bush or Reagan would have done? It would be more relevant to hypothesize what McCain would have done.

Esthier on October 30, 2009 at 5:52 PM

Sure, I told her:

Did you leave her a tip?

Esthier on October 30, 2009 at 5:47 PM

Did you leave her a tip?

The collapse of GM didn’t involve the entire credit system of the country freezing, which is the way Paulson explained it to Bush.

Yes, it was a different situation.

Because he told them no and they knew Barack would tell them yes, because NObama was elected by Big Labor, among other groups and GM=UAW.

So you then agree that he wasn’t placed in Obama’s situation, as you seem to be implying that they were biding their time until Obama was in the White House.

President Bush looks like a virtual Scrooge compared to Ogabe!

Sure.

I couldn’t find any reference to an agreement on a timetable between Bush and the Iraqis.

All soldiers out of Iraq by 2011.

But you said he was following Bush–an argument you’re now abandoning and rightly attributing Porkulus to Nancy.

Jenfidel on October 30, 2009 at 4:46 PM

Rightly? I thought you were blaming all of this on Obama. See, the whole point of the comment you initially replied to is that Obama hasn’t done much to drastically change this country, at least not yet. Letting Pelosi write the bill when she was clearly in on TARP, isn’t exactly new.

And no, I’m not saying Obama did nothing. I’m just saying he did very little to guide the bill. He didn’t even write it. But I’m also not saying Pelosi did this without Obama. I’m saying that Obama saw TARP, thought it was good and decided to double down, only he didn’t feel like getting his hands dirty with actual work.

What did she say?

Jim Treacher on October 30, 2009 at 5:20 PM
