Drinking Liberally — Seattle

by — ,

The Seattle Chapter of Drinking liberally meets tonight, and there are a few topics likely to be raised over a pint: The Washington state gubernatorial race, Ron Sims’ return to Seattle (running for Gov?), the tunnel-ish vote, last night’s Republican debate, today’s Wisconsin Supreme Court decision, and today’s Prop. 8 ruling in California.

So please join us tonight for drinks, conversation, and even dinner at the Montlake Ale House, 2307 24th Avenue E. Starting time is 8:00 pm, but a few folks show up around 7:00 pm for dinner.

    Reuters) – Above-average temperatures were hitting across the southern United States on Tuesday, with drought-parched west Texas and north Florida bearing the brunt of the heat.

    A high of 110 degrees is forecast for Midland, Texas on Tuesday, shattering the city’s daily record of 105 degrees set in 1945, said Victor Murphy, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Fort Worth.

    Florida’s capital city of Tallahassee is expected to reach 102 degrees, breaking the previous record of 99 degrees, Murphy said.

    Southern parts of Georgia and Alabama will also top the century mark.

    The average temperature this time of year in Dothan, Alabama is 90 degrees, Murphy said. But Tuesday, the city is forecast to set a new daily record high of 103 degrees.

    “there’s no such thing as shovel-ready projects.” – Obummer

    Krauthammer drops da HAMMER

  10. 10

    This chart is priceless…

    So if it’s a joke as the DUMMOCRAPTS claim, how do 13 Million+ unemployed people feel about Obummer’s “joke”?

  14. 14

    Oh lookie here… Obummer is back at Wall Street.

    President Obama convened two dozen Wall Street executives, many of them longtime donors, in the White House’s Blue Room.

    Butt butt butt the moronic of the most leftwing moronic libtardo HA bullshit loser artists told all here on HA Wall Street was in the hip pocket of Republicans. Funniest commetary from a DUMMOCRAPT Wall Street Jockstrapper…

    “The first goal was to get recognition that the administration has led the economy from an unimaginably difficult place to where we are today,” said Blair W. Effron, an investment banker closely involved in Mr. Obama’s fund-raising efforts. “Now the second goal is to turn that into support.”

    Butt now we see from the WH Presser this “meeting” wasn’t on Obummer’s public published schedule. Now why is Obummer hiding this information? Also we’ve been told by the most virulent and most idiotic here that rich Republicans don’t pay their fair fare. Well it seems many of these rich are rich DUMMOCRAPTS. And they don’t care to pay their fair fare either.

    Don’t bring up Wall Street and Republicans again. Even the NY Times knows the real truth! So much for that “open” sadministration full of transparency!

    BTW HA leftist dipshit loons… this meeting took place at the whitey house. Fund raising at da whitey house by DUMMOCRAPTS. Well we know Clinton showed Obummer how it was done!

  15. 15

    @11: Unfamiliar with the concept of “change” are you? Don’t ask. I won’t give you any. Jerk.

  16. 16

    WTF? Well, fuck you. That’s basically what “orginal intent comes down to…like “literal” interpretations of a text that has been revised/changed/translated how many times?

    WTF yourself, idiot.

  17. 17

    @15

    you keep your chump change…..I will keep the dollar bills.

    did you have another microbrew yet? LMFAO….

  18. 18

    @16

    Wow…that booze is really kicking isnt it!

    Are you drinking Strawman Light tonight?

  20. 20

    Man this fool has his head up his ASS like many libtardos here on HA!

  21. 21

    And then there is Bawney Fwank…

    This is toooooooo dammmmmn funnnnnny.

  23. 23

    Wall Street and

    Republicans:

    The legislation represents newfound aggression towards the Wall Street reform law from Republicans.

    Wall Street and

    Republicans:

    Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) introduced a similar repeal bill in the House on the first day of the 112th Congress,

    Wall Street and

    Republicans:

    But now, DeMint is calling for the entire piece of legislation to be eliminated.

    See 22 for the link…

  25. 25

    @various: Yup, the financial industry barons who brought the economy to its knees can’t wait for things to get back to business as usual.

  26. 26

    Idiot@22, Apparently the moronic beta boy loves everything conceived by Bawney Fwank who admitted his lover was where in the government and he did what to inhibit regulating of that organization ya fool?

    Next point for yelling loser beta.. One would think Dodd and Fwank being the Senate and House Financial leaders would have had their finger on the pulse of the finances and saw September 2008 financial collapse coming. THEY DIDN’T ya moron!

    So you like “too big to fail“? This guy has it right! The Fed Reserve and Fannie MAE-Freddie MAC are the problems not addressed in the bill. That’s what McConnell & DeMint were talking about! Another job killing bill poorly written.

    ndustry executives, including mortgage bankers, real estate agents and builders, have said they’re concerned that a decline in lending may hurt housing and the economic recovery.

    Because Fannie and Freddie were exempt they continue to suck the oxygen from Obummer and the recovery. This is what Ludwig von Mises discussed about government easy money.

    Stay stupid yelling loser boy. The bill touted by Obummer in 2010 has caused the economy to be a bummer in 2011.

  27. 27

    “Our target ratio for the 2010 cycle is 80-20 Republican,” said Karen Klugh, spokeswoman for the American Financial Services Association.

    Explains what about the whitey house in 2011 being used as a Wall Street fund raiser for Obummer hidden from the light of day by the sadministration claiming to be the most transparent ever ya dumb databaze moron? You and your tax evading left wing rich fools!

    Sheesh! You and rujax are the two biggest left wing idiots here!

  28. 28

    Wall Street and

    Republicans:

    Contribution trends toward Republicans is particularly pronounced in the securities and investment industry, the Center finds.

    During March 2009, people and PACs associated with this industry directed 70 percent of their federal-level contributions to Democratic candidates, party committees and leadership PACs.

    By June, such numbers had practically flipped, with preliminary figures indicating Republican interests had received 68 percent of all federal-level contributions from this industry.

    Individuals associated with these industries, such as company executives and middle managers, are the primary drivers of a Republican campaign donation shift, the Center’s research indicates.

    http://www.opensecrets.org/new.....itica.html

    Did some brain dead right wing idiot say Wall Streets doesn’t care for Republicans?

  29. 29

    Wall Street and

    Democrats?

    NEW YORK – On the mental list of slights and outrages that just about every major figure on Wall Street is believed to keep on President Barack Obama, add this one: When he met recently with a group of CEOs at Blair House, there was no representative from any of the six biggest banks in America.

    Not one!

    Wall Street and

    Republicans:

    In general, congressional Republicans and Wall Street couldn’t be much closer. Financial industry lobbyists keep GOP leaders’ cell-phone numbers on speed dial, and Wall Street has grown to hate President Obama and his team with “an almost irrational passion,” as bankers and their lobbyists regard the administration “with a disdain so thick it often blurs to naked loathing.”

    What’s more, it was the Republican Party that huddled with hedge fund managers and industry lobbyists to try to kill Wall Street reform, and later offered to trade campaign contributions for weaker layers of accountability.

  32. 32

    Wall Street and

    Republicans:

    As the head of a $17 billion hedge fund, Mr. Singer, a self-described Barry Goldwater conservative who is 66, is using his financial might to try to change those policies. He has become one of the biggest bankrollers of Republican causes, giving more than $4 million of his money and raising millions more through fund-raisers he hosts for like-minded candidates who often share his distaste for what they view as governmental over-meddling in the financial industry.

    Wall Street and

    Republicans:

    The same day in June that the House gave final approval to the sweeping overhaul of financial regulations, Mr. Singer had a fund-raiser at his Central Park West apartment, netting more than $1 million for seven Republican Senate candidates who had opposed the bill.

    Blair House? Bwaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    LMBBAO!

    The NY Times article was about Obummer meeting with Wall Street in da whitey house ya moron! And all those stupid links prove what? All those links explains what about the whitey house in 2011 being used as a Wall Street fund raiser for Obummer hidden from the light of day by the sadministration claiming to be the most transparent ever ya dumb databaze moron?

    You and your tax evading left wing rich fools!

    It’s 2011 ya DUMB ASS

    You proved to everyone here how much of a DUMB ASS you are!

  34. 34

    Notice how the DUMB ASS yelling beta boy won’t touch the Dodd Frank Bill and how it’s killing the economy!

    Stay stupid yelling loser boy. The bill touted by Obummer in 2010 has caused the economy to be a bummer in 2011.

  35. 35

    tax evading left wing rich fools!

    Like Singer the “Goldwater conservative”…

    Your beloved Republicans want to make Wall Street rich and cut their taxes.

    You’re proved a silly tool and a fool..

    Again…

  36. 36

    Heh, why don’t you libs just charge the bill for everyone tonight, and each further drinking liberally you attend.

    Since Debt doesn’t seem to matter in your worlds, lets see how many credit increases you get on your bill from that place before you have to start really paying it down!

  37. 37

    All that screaming by yelling lost beta and no response to Dodd Frank. Bringing up 2010 garbage and can’t argue why da whitey house was used as a Wall Street campaign stop by Obummer.

    Such a useless left wing malleable Homer Simpson Cass Sunstein idiot! Says the same useless thing over and over when caught with his thumb up his ASS!

    Whatamoron!

    Stay stupid yelling loser boy. The bill touted by Obummer in 2010 has caused the economy to be a bummer in 2011.

  38. 38

    The NY Fed’s Empire State survey, a key reading on the health of the manufacturing sector, fell sharply in June, to -7. 8. Economists had been expecting a reading closer to 12. New orders also fell. Stock futures headed lower on the news.

    Can’t be very good news for Mr O today. Maybe he’ll just chuckle for the camera. Cheese

  39. 39

    24,199 Palin Emails are out. The media wasted a lot of time about nuthin.

    Where are Obummer’s Illinois State emails? Maybe they’ll detail how he came to vote present over 130 times.

    Where are WeinerSchnitzel’s emails?

  42. 42

    no response to Dodd Frank.

    Puddybud is full of shit as usual:

    One year after the passage of the Dodd-Frank financial overhaul, key regulators keep delaying or weakening new rules and regulations. The Commodities and Futures Trading Commission is also proposing to push back impending deadlines.

    http://marketplace.publicradio.....-weakened/

    As is the right wing way, right wing tools like Puddybud would rather hurl bigoted anti-gay slurs than discuss facts.

  44. 44

    Dipshit!@41

    Da truth hurts!

  45. 45

    Anti-gay slurs?

    Marriage is between a man and woman! PERIOD! Gays can cohabitate, be in civil unions etc.

    LMBBAO at whatamorons such as you!

  46. 46

    http://marketplace.publicradio.....-weakened/

    What does that have to do with the bill passed in 2010.

    Man you are reaching for straws as always.

    First it was a Blair House meeting in 2010 now it’s this link above… From the left leaning Wikipedia…

    The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is an independent agency of the United States government that regulates futures and option markets.

    And who controls the group? Obummer has three DUMMOCRAPTS in charge of the commission out of five peeps.

    YOU ARE SO STUPID yelling loser beta. Now you are scouring the ‘Nets for anything to hold up your sewer smelling and worthless point!

    Whatamoron!

    Whatanidiot!

    Whatafool!

  47. 47

    43 – You just can’t limit your crap to Barney Frank’s legislative record – you have to mix in his sexual orientation every time. You’re a hater Puddybud.

    The 14th amendment says we’re all to be treated EQUALLY under the law. Civil unions is not equal to Marriage under the law stupid.

    You want gays and lesbians to be second class citizens.

  48. 48

    44 – AGAIN you FAIL reading. The marketplace article discusses,

    DODD-FRANK!!!

    Twenty-four new rules have been finished, including one that requires companies to let shareholders vote on executive pay. Two-hundred-eighteen more Dodd-Frank rules still have their deadlines yet to come.

    It’s hardly been freaking implemented yet!

  49. 49

    @45
    Your directing intelligent argument at a weird, nasty little man that thinks the earth is 6000 years old, that ‘god’ teleported Emperor Penguins to the middle east to board ‘Noah’s Ark’, and who insists on using the neologism ‘to jockstrap’ in place of the more common ‘to support’.

    The latter shows he’s clearly fixated on penises, and therefore Barney Frank’s sexuality, which involves two penises, is utterly fascinating to him. He does seem a hater, and that often, among Republicans, correlates with, um, a ‘wide stance’. Perhaps we should encourage him to embrace his true self, to come out, and that we’re all ready to embrace him for who he really is – and at that point so much of the bilious hateful troll spooge on these threads would magically evaporate.

  50. 50

    47 – LS it’s just entertainment for me. I know I should set my sights higher, find better uses of the limited time I have left and indeed it is wearying at times but oh someone’s got to do it I guess.

  51. 51

    You can’t see you just contradicted yourself between #42 and #48. And of course lib scientist FAILS to see that.

    LMBBAO!
