Don’t be caught off guard when Uncle Ernie unloads about Obama’s death panels and the U.N. coming for his guns. Please join us for an evening of politics and a pint at this evening’s Thanksgiving warm-up edition of the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally.
We meet tonight and every Tuesday evening at the Montlake Ale House, 2307 24th Avenue E. Our normal starting time is 8:00pm.
Can’t make it tonight? Check out another Washington state DL over the next week. The Tri-Cities chapter meets tonight and every Tuesday night. The Bellingham and Burien chapters meet on Wednesday. And next Monday, the Yakima, South Bellevue and Olympia chapters meet.
With 212 chapters of Living Liberally, including eighteen in Washington state, four in Oregon, and three more in Idaho, chances are excellent there’s a chapter meeting near you.

Actually, Uncle Earnie has been broke for years, ever since he shorted all that oil company stock in 99 and then put it all into Enron. He hasn’t told anyone this, he’s been working the credit game, living on his Social Security and the food bank, and still has his house. but he’s still on a tear about how Obama made the banks raise all their fees and shit to keep a bank account. Taxes are just outrageous these days.

Oh my… the end of this video (NHK Japan news story about the airborne spread of radioactivity) kind of scared me. (See the video that’s being shown in the video near the end wherein the cloud comes all the way across the Pacific and blankets the western U.S.)
I’d heard rumor about radioactivity coming to the U.S. coast after the meltdown of three Fukushima reactors two and a half years ago, but I hadn’t realized that the radiation made it to the western U.S. in quantity.
Nine days upwind of us and our children here in the Pacific Northwest, three nuclear reactors have melted down and are too hot for even robotic cameras to go into them, and they’re just now starting to remove the chemicals from the fourth.

More IRS paranoia. the Puddibigot just doesn’t get that Teabaggers, intent on political activities, which is of course their right, don’t get to do that at taxpayers’ expense.
He has NEVER articulated an understanding that political activity precludes a group being tax exempt. He persists in the fiction that Romneybot lost because the Teahaddists were taxed, or rather, were not tax exempt.
He doesn’t even get that he immediately defeats his own argument when he connects Romney’s loss to the IRS ruling on the so-called “Patriot” groups.

You mean the part where he said that Palin was…
or references to her “rank ignorance”?
Absolutely I agree with that. Palin is both evil and stupid, and she grifts the marks, like you, relentlessly. She is a force for ignorance and darkness. Her first shot, to which Bashir over-reacted, comparing national debt to slavery was profoundly wrong, and cheapened the horror of slavery, as she cheapens everything she touches. Why aren’t you horrified at that?
Because you, like the entirety of the right, are a professional victim, constantly seeing monsters under your bed, constantly in fear of those you hate (who are legion), constantly trying to silence voices you fear and loathe.
You are congenitally unable to make any statement other than cheap, recycled pot-shots that you heard on WND or Breitbard, or even Time or CNN, wherever. You are unable to make any sort of affirmative statement, any semblance of a positive argument for what you’re for, any statement of vision other than that of your Sky-Daddy coming down to smite your enemies.
You, like the rest of the Teahaddist right, are defined by tribe and fear, and know only what you hate – you are unfit for self-government or participatory democracy – dangerous little know-nothing pawns in the service of what you think is theocracy, but is in fact plutocracy, and you’re building your own cages.

I think it’s about time Piddles got a little history.
Ridicule, according to Piddles who read it in the right-o-sphere and swallowed it whole is typical Alinsky tactics and the source of all political activism for leftists is Alinsky. Here Alinsky substitutes for Soros as the right wing red herring/boogeyman. Ridicule is here dismissed as “attacking the source.”
But the notion of political ridicule MUST originate with Alinsky because to the small minded Alinsky is the originator of the tactic.
Right Piddles? Is Alinsky following the model of Thomas Jefferson…gasp…a founding father?
I could cite many more form Paine, Adams, Franklin etc but actual history would make a simpleton like Piddles hurt himself.

I think Republicans are badly misreading the situation. Yeah, holiday flying is a major pain, but that doesn’t mean families will stop getting together for Thanksgiving, or prefer driving to flying. Likewise, Obamacare’s rollout has problems (we all know that; no need to keep banging on the garbage can lid), but that doesn’t mean the public wants to go back to the old system of pre-existing condition exclusions, arbitrary claim denials, insurance company death panels, and the ever-present threat of medical bankruptcy. Most people would rather have fucked-up holiday air travel than no travel, and fucked-up healthcare reform than no health care. Something is always better than nothing, and you can always work to smooth things out as you go along — that’s how most things get done, most of the time. If we listened to conservatives, we’d still be living in caves, and spending this holiday week with growling stomachs and chipping away at stones to make spear points. That’s why Obamacare’s startup pains won’t turn into electoral victories for those who want to lead us backward to the 19th century. Voters aren’t going to hand over our government to people who wouldn’t know what to do with a government if they got one. We’ve already been down that road, and we’ve seen it doesn’t work.

Could you compare and contrast the right-wing alternatives to Obamacare, the ones that would insure and provide access to similar proportion of people? Could you give us an affirmative argument for the plan you like, so that we could have a spirited conversation about which direction is better for the country?

I find it laughable that the puddibigot is trying to rebut Krugman with a series of N=1 anecdotes, and a story about “IT experts” that he cribbed from a website whose first story is about the evils of fluoridated water.
puddibigot still seems to suffer under the misapprehension that if he creates a post with a bunch of links, it will will seem persuasive.
Moron.

First, I am SO in his head!! BWAAHAHAHA!
And second, I LOVE the fact that I shamed him into changing his sig line, and taking his bigotry back to his hate closet!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

schmucko-lunatic made seven posts this morning… 91-97, six of them were against Puddy.
Now who has whom freely lurking in their minds? Once again schmucko-lunatic is a laughable idiot…

CNN/ORC poll schmucko-lunatic?
Pulled from TPM schmucko-lunatic? You wake up in the morning and immediately received your marching orders in the daily DNC mailing?
Toooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Dammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnny
Where they oversample DUMMOCRETINS again in the poll hence the numbers are biased higher? Reminds Puddy of the previous CNN/ORC poll where only 40% of Americans thought Obummer was trustworthy. That poll was DUMMOCRETIN oversampled! So what %age thought they were untrustworthy? Close to 60%
See ya. Thanks for the great morning laugh.
Happy Thanksgiving!

So puddibigot, now that you seem to have settled down at the computer, and are posting a bunch….could you give us that affirmative and detailed argument for a medical care system that you would favor?
Ryan? Broun? Price? Gingrich?
Details! Critique! How it would be better than ACA! Give us the picture of your Teahaddists paradise medical care system – let’s debate!

You are a frightened and pathetic little man, puddibigot.
Puddybud - Back to the Original! spews:
You were the one who posited N=1 as datum and anecdote when there are three state stories of security breaches, Minnesota, Oregon and Vermont and federal. Data and truth not anecdotes!
So you schmucko-moron are really that stupid!
Puddybud - Back to the Original! spews:
Keep talking to the hand. DUMMOCRETINS created this health care mess. Not one Republican voted for Obummercare. DUMMOCRETINS in 2010 rejected any Republican input Hence DUMMOCRETINS have to fix it without Republican input.
Hence, you’ll continue to receive the upheld palm to your crying pathetic posts!

Another attempt at subject change schmucko-lunatic… Where did the poll argument go?

That’s not what I asked.
I want to know what your preferred system would be. You keep dancing around and running away, and keep refusing to put out there what you want. What’s the best system, puddibigot, if you were in charge?
I delight in asking this question, because I know that you’ll never answer it. You only do turd-droppings and then run away.
You’re either afraid to show how little you know (news: we already know this), or to actually air what you really think, knowing that, like all right-wingers, the toxic mix of religious fanaticism, fascism and various bigotries will be repulsive to normal people.

@97
Facts like the fact that an IT professional in Minnesota with security access cut and pasted the sensitive material into an e-mail and sent it and then was fired for such a stupid-ass should never be allowed in the field again move?
But right, call out Krugman for allegedly not telling all of the story.
It’s all linked from your link because of course ‘Daily Caller’ won’t say that the incident was a single human error that occured BEFORE the state started signing up people for Obamacare. It has to be Obamacare’s fault or else stupid people like Piddles won’t be outraged.

puddibigot, I know you don’t read well, and your grasp of diction is poor (vault/vaunt?), but still, this isn’t that hard to grasp…
Yet you post turds like this…
To be clear. You posted a series of N=1 links. Those are called anecdotes. My subsequent comment about data/datum was in reference to your manifest inability to understand that a few random one-off stories does not constitute an effective systematic indictment of the ACA.
I can’t tell if you’re being deliberately obtuse – in an effort to squirt squid ink – or you really are that dense. I don’t really care – either alternative leads to the same place – you’re inadequate as a challenging and honest debate opponent.

Puddy noticed you gave up on the other attacks and now schmucko-lunatic is left on what’s your healthcare answer. Puddy has a long answer schmucko-lunatic. It’s just you won’t get the satisfaction of reading it. Created long ago for other reasons!
When DUMMOCRETINS reach out to Republicans for healthcare help Puddy will post it BEFORE Republicans answer.

OK, I’m done toying with the pointy-headed puddibigot for now. I, alas, must work today, and have 3 hospitals to hit before I get any turkey.
C’mon, puddibigot – surprise me – leave a long and detailed argument FOR something – tell us about the perfect medical care system that you and your Teahaddist allies would construct, given a free hand. How would it solve our nation’s needs and problems, and how would it be better than the ACA, or Medicare-for-All.
Later.
