The Seattle chapter of Drinking Liberally meets tonight (and every Tuesday), 8PM at the Montlake Ale House, 2307 24th Avenue E.
King County Executive Ron Sims will be joining us for some good beer and even better conversation. If you have any questions for Ron, I urge you stop on by and weigh in. Should be a great evening.
I’d love to be there with my “Yes on I-901” or “She’s not MY Governor” t-shirt. Maybe sometime when I have absolutely nothing better to do with my time than listen to a bunch of whiney tofu-eating vegetarian tree-huggin “we think we are holier than thou but we’re really not and we are leftist pinheads” drunks. Have fun.
Hows that phoney baloney housecleaning, reorg doing over at Elections?
Why does a good manners man hang out with f-word afficianados?
Did he clean up his son or brother’s illegal registration?
How come his buses don’t keep their schedules?
How come I gotta pay extra money to toss by computer out?
@ 2
Sounds like homey oughta “put up” by “showing up”. As a regular DL attendee, I don’t think we’d mind it if a King County resident wanted to ask questions. But, I’m not close to RS. Goldy should rule on it.
Swift boat
sorry, can’t make it. The President asked us all to converse gas. I thought you guys liked governmental directives, federal direction?
Conserve, sorry. But its not a word i use often in the environmental sense.
Wow; your little drinking liberally org actually tells you what beers to dring (click goldy’s link)…takes you to a Word doc..

Questions for Ron Sims:
#1. Where’s the turnaround team for King County Elections?
#2. Where’s the security for the elections department?
#3. Why do you support felon suffrage?
#4. Why do you want a third term? Seriously – why?
#5. What is your problem with David Irons?
#6. Why did you claim King County Elections had an accuracy rate any bank would envy?
#7. What is good home-training?
#8. What spurred you onto the CAO?
#9. Why don’t you join the Communist Party?
#10. See #1.
I sure hope Mr. Sims rides a metro bus to DL so he can set an example for us knuckledraggers. And all you loyal HAs should also do so.
Ask him what he plans to do with his time next year when he’s unemployed? Maybe hang out with Dean Logan who will also have some time on his hands?

You are a great American!
If i can’t figure out the bus schedules, how in the world will Ronnie ever make the 3 transfers to Montlake?
Josef: You are a great American. I don’t think any animal hind parts lefty will ask those probing questions.
Just back from a week of SCUBA diving on Maui. Very few Democrats underwater, except for the sucker fish that attach themselves on the small reef sharks. I named the sucker fish Kerry, Gore, and Goldenstein. [hehe] I know you commie libs missed me!!
Is Ron’s newest BUTTBUDDY, Frauditor Ernie “SHAMMAN” Hawkins joining you dickheads tonight??? You should all buy that stupid SOB a drink. His “alleged” AUDIT report is a COMPLETE SHAM!! Hawkins never did an audit of the scope to detect fraud. As a CPA, I was blown away that Hawkins would even comment on fraud. What an asshole. I guess it’s easy for Ernie-baby to say he didn’t find any evidence of FRAUD WHEN THE FUCKING IDIOT WASN”T LOOKING FOR ANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s like telling your wife you can’t find a beer when you are sitting on the toilet taking a shit with the fucking door closeddddddddddddddddddddd!
re 7: On your point number 3. The U.S. is the ONLY major democracy in the world that takes away a felon’s right to vote. What makes you think that you have a constitutional right to do that?
Speaking of drinking, the New Orleans Levy Board [Democrats all] loved to take expensive “working seminars” at Kapalua, Maui each and every year, charging a shit load of food and drink bills to the New Orleans Board. “Guvment employee black Democrats”…Don’t you just love them?? Democrats: Domestic terrorists right out of “Animal Farm”. [You know…”All animals are equal, but black Democrats with a New Orleans City credit card are more equal than others.” All you KNOW NOONE will bring this subject up because they are scared shitless of being called racist.]

Oh and BTW, just because said red wine source supports something or detests something doesn’t mean I do (I am a supporter of Senator Cantwell, BTW).
I said THIS to get you guys to mellow out on Rossimania.
Wow, our little crowd of Rethugs are a bunch of sorry, angry assholes, aren’t they?
Fellas, you have a golden opportunity to try and make your case with Sims in a public place, but what do you do? Bellyache and posture and then wimp out like the candy asses you all are.
Sad.
shiftless loose-y @ 14: “U.S. is the ONLY major democracy in the world that takes away a felon’s right to vote. What makes you think that you have a constitutional right to do that?”
No, the US doesn’t take it away. The felon forfeits that right by committing felony. And the next time you dare tread in this territory, write “Constitutional” with a capital “C” unless you’re merely referring to the right to take a brisk morning walk. Then again, I shouldn’t expect much from a child-hating public school “teacher” whose incompetence is protected by a child-hating union.
Lucite-like libs hate the Constitution because it gives Power to the Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeple!
JCH@15: Do you have a link for that commentary?
Comment by Mr. X— 10/5/05 @ 1:05 am
Gee, good idea: I drive two counties down to challenge in a Sims-friendly bar Ron Sims? I’m only 150 pounds.
If I had Rob McKenna & Reagan Dunn w/ me, that’d be a different story.
re 20: You CHICKENSHIT piece of CRAP!!!!!!!!!! I bring up a REAL issue and you dodge it by impugning my patriotism and wrapping yourself in the word: “constitution.” You care nothing for the spirit or the letter of the constitution and you and your other extreme righty friends are rapidly DESTROYING the constitution and this country with your supply side economics. VOODOO ECONOMICS!!!! Remember who said that? Or was he just lying to get votes?
Headless lucy you forgot to take your med’s this morning. You might hurt someones feelings, remember political correctness is the only way to save a sinner. By the way rhe Constitution doesn’t have a Spirit, nor is it a LETTER, but a Document written by this Nation past leaders that’s not to be pandered by a political group or groups.It’s not a living document that can be change with the different political winds, or fades. God Bless, where is that warbbit?
Lucy;
Constitution is mute on this issue. Never addresses rights of former criminals. I doubt any interpretation of the equal protection clause would ever (stupidly) claim that criminals should have the same rights as I have.
I think we need to have a Drinking Responsibly or Drinking Righteously or a Drinking Reality club. Your proof as a righty is being a member of the RNC. Your Passport is having a letter from the RNC mailing list. Those without one will be further scrutinized.
LEFTIST PINHEADS want the UN to overrule our Constitution. It gives them a good feeling letting corrupt dictators and women hating thugs tell the US what to do. I thought when GHWB talked about One-World Government the lefties went bananas on that. Yet now they want us to confer with the UN on everything. Again they want it both ways when they are in power!!!
Again they want it both ways when they are in power!!! -Comment by Puddybud— 10/5/05 @ 9:22 am
They want it both ways when they are OUT of power, too!!!
Puddybud @ 26
Do you mean to say that if we wanted to show up at your drinking event “ve vill have to show you Z pa-pers!!” “Zieg heil!, Zieg heil!”
Isn’t Ron Sims the guy who thinks an income tax would be just peachy-keeno for Washington? Supporting THAT view in THIS state is a great way to lose an election!
Mark1 @1
I won’t hold my breath waiting for a chickenshit blowhard like you to actually show up at Drinking Liberally because it’ll be a long fucking wait.
@26, 29
Yup, the Pubbies will check papers at the door to make sure no “enemies” infiltrate their group. Republicans are paranoid chickenshits who suffer seizures if a critic gets within 2,000 yards of them.

Shiftless loose-y @ 23:
You’re clearly “dumber than you look.” Let’s address this point-by-point:
1. I replied exactly to your point. You wrongly argued “US… takes away… vote” and I corrected you by reminding you that it is the felon who him-/herself (knowingly) forfeits the right to vote when they commit the felony.
2. I mentioned nothing about your lack of patriotism nor did I “wrap myself” in the Constitution. I merely reminded you — an alleged teacher — that when one refers to the defining document of the United States, it is capitalized. Otherwise, a “constitutional” is simply a brisk morning walk or other similar activity.
3. My closing comment, however accurate, did stereotype you based on your post and your body of writings. If you want to call that OT, fine. I do stand by my observation that IF you actually are a teacher, that you are clearly one of the child-hating incompetents that is protected by the protect-teachers-before-children union.
The fact that you continue refer to the Constitution with a lowercase “c” — even after my reminder — indicates that you are one or all of the following: lazy, uneducated, disrespectful of the US and/or you take for granted everthing that has been handed to you on a silver platter.
Rabbit @ 33
You’re back! Just remember to play nice or I’ll peck your big, round bunny eyes out. CLUCK! ;)
Good grief bunny butt – clearly you dind’t get enough rest and relaxation. Call the institute – have em up the meds, babe.
Proud @ 36
Bunny’s problem is that he just needs a good clucking.
Me @ 34 (additional info)
While referring to the US document, one should always use a capital “C,” I just remembered that one could refer to governmental constitutions in general in lowercase. However, not all constitutions guarantee the right to vote, so calling voting a lowercase “constitutional right” would be inaccurate.
Then again, child-hating, incompetent alleged teachers like Loose-y care more for spreading their ideology to their students than for respecting this nation or properly educating.
@31 Roger Rodent:
Thought you were on vacation, but you are such a miserable loser you just can’t stand to have a lil R and R and stay away can you? And, re. your post, I’ll drink you under the table any day my friend; assuming you can stop hugging your tree long enough to make it to the bar.
the felon who him-/herself (knowingly) forfeits the right to vote when they commit the felony.
Here are two questions:
Why should someone continue to be a 2nd class citizen after they’ve served their prison time and completed the terms of their probation?
What other rights should felons, who have completed their sentence, be permanently bereft of?
I merely reminded you – an alleged teacher – that when one refers to the defining document of the United States, it is capitalized.
What’s this “United States”? And do you keep capitalizing “us”?
Wait, are you referring to the “United States of America”? Which is abbreviated as U.S.A.? Why do you disrespect our country so by making these blatant mistakes? Are you in league with the terrorists?
If felons can’t vote, the Dems lose thousands of black votes. This must be racist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [hehe]
Aexia @ 40: “Why should someone continue to be a 2nd class citizen after they’ve served their prison time and completed the terms of their probation?”
The fact that they’ve committed a felony DOES make them a lower-class “citizen.” But I digress…
They can petition to have the voting rights restored after they complete their sentence AND any post-incarceration terms — including payment of restitution. Or do you think that their VICTIMS should continue to suffer medically and/or psychologically while the offender is made whole?
Aexia: “What’s this “United States”? Wait, are you referring to the “United States of America”? Which is abbreviated as U.S.A.?”
A key part of the word “smartass” is “smart.” Your weak attempt to slam me indicates that you are far from that. “US” and “United States” are valid abbreviations for “United States of America,” both formally and in common usage. If you want proof, take a look at the Preamble of the Constitution! And check Webster if that isn’t enough for you.
On the other hand, in a political context, lowercase “constitution” merely refers to the principles and laws of any nation, state, etc. The Constitution of the United States of America is ALWAYS capitalized.
The next time you feel like correcting someone, have the information right in the first place. This isn’t the first time you’ve made this type of mistake.
re 24: What do you think amendments are, dipshit? I have heard pundits of the right say that “nowhere in the constitution is the right to abortion specifically given, therefore it is forbidden.” It is this twisted sense of ,”I know what’s right and you don’t”, that makes reasoning with you zealots impossible. I explained to you that ALL the other major democracies in the world allow felons to vote (even a CONVICTED–though, pardoned felon like Oliver North or Edwin Meese). The constitution is mute on this matter. YOU said, Puddwhack, that the constitution forbids felons from voting, and I corrected you by validly pointing out that the constitution says nothing about this. YOU want to forbid felons from voting, not the constitution. I’m tired of having to cater to your irrational predjudices and all your cant ignorant and senseless polemics.
re 34: You uptight, pickle-up-your-ass, chickenshit piece of crap, Mark. I’ll take no instructions from you. Your irrational predjudices don’t guide anyone–least of all you!
Lucite, good to see you back to your worthless self after school hours. Now if you would continue after hours, I’m sure we could put up with your inane rants.
I have no problems with ex-felons who become members of society petitioning for their voting right back. Remember, driving is a priviledge too.
Headless loosey,
You started the whole constititutional thing..re felons. Nowhere does the constititution protect the rights of criminals to vote… so we can make up the rules… we can’t torture prisoners, and have to give them fair trials, but we can deny them golf courses in prison, and voting after they get out. We could alternatively allow them to vote when they get out…i think its up to the legislature.
what public good is served by removing this punishment from proven criminals (felonies are jaywalking by the way).
When does the school library open?
oops, felonies are NOT jaywalking, i meant
Shiftless Loose-y @ 44
That is the best you’ve got? No wonner arrr chillun cain’t reed ‘n’ rite!
BTW, your blowing off respect for the Constitution as “uptight” is just proof that you’re a typical America-hating, Far Left Wing lemming. That, and a child-hating, incompetent alleged teacher protected by a put-teachers-ahead-of-children, child-hating union.
Hey what about those of us who do not drink evil alachol?
RennDawg @ 49
I’m guessing you’re a Dem because you suddenly don’t know what to do unless told by your Fearless Leaders.
Mark @ 50
Well I am a Christian thats why I don’t drink evil alachol
RenDawg @ 51
So… just don’t drink when you go there. Do you have a problem with OTHER people drinking — even in moderation? C’mon, man, this isn’t rocket science. Either you go, drink Coke and chat politics or, if you don’t even want to be around booze, just don’t go. Not sure why this needs explanation — regardless of your Lefty or Righty leanings.
